How can I see which computers (computer name) Creative Cloud is installed on?

How can I see which computers (computer name) Creative Cloud is installed on?

Hi Arno ten Hagen,
To check for activation you need to go to all the machines in which you have installed CC apps, launch any of the CC software, go to help and you will see the email address mentioned by which you are logged in to that machine.

How to connect to an other computer through the internet

Please who can help me with Desktop Remote control and connecting through the internet. I know a lot is written about it, but it is still confusing.
So try to explain my situation:
I have an MacBook pro with Desktop Remote Control 3
The other computer:
Apple PowerBook which is connected through and Thomson Speedtouch (wireless 716)
External IP address xx.xx.xx.xx
Internal IP address 192.168.1.66
No firewalls
My questions:
How do I check if my Thomson Speedtouch the ports 5900 and 32?? are open?
How can I open the ports on the router? Do I have to open the port on the router?
Then on the MacBook Pro, I start up ARD3
How do I scan for the computer on Internet? Do I use the external IP address?
How can I then connect to the Apple PowerBook? I cannot fill in the second internal IP address or do I?
I hope someone can help me.
If more info is needed, please ask me.
Thank you....
Hans

Neil thank you for your answer.
I opened Network Utility. Went to the last Tab "Port Scan"
I typed in: external IP address (i got this through the Widget SysStat which shows external IP)
Than I gave up scan between the ports 5890 - 5910 to check if those ports are open or not. I had to way for a moment, and then the result was: "Port Scan has completed....."
Ok, what do I know know? The ports are open or not?
So please can someone help me with the following:
1) What should the result show me from Network utility?
2) Opening the port, this has to be done on the Router or is it something the Internet Service Provider needs to do?
3) I still have the question: how can I open the port, so with what application.
4) What are the exact ports which needs to be open?
5) About bridging in the router, does that have a special name. I didn't see in the router configuration program an option like that? When searching --> this is configured: A. Router-modem (NAT/PAT) - is there something special with NAT/PAT?
Hope someone can help me with a few of my questions.
Thanks

Getting the user name and computer name

I've been trying to find out how to do this, but can't seem to get it.
I have an AIR application that needs to get the user's login name, and computer name for verification. I can't find anywhere to do this. Is AIR able to get this information? Is there work arounds if there isn't?
It won't ever be a web app, just an AIR app.

What I did in Air 2 to accomplish that is the following:
               public function getHostName():void {
                    if(NativeProcess.isSupported) {
                         var OS:String = Capabilities.os.toLocaleLowerCase();
                         var file:File;
                         if (OS.indexOf('win') > -1) {
                              //Executable in windows
                              file = new File('C:\\Windows\\System32\\hostname.exe');
                         } else if (OS.indexOf('mac') > -1 ) {
                              //Executable in mac
                         } else if (OS.indexOf('linux')) {
                              //Executable in linux
                         var nativeProcessStartupInfo:NativeProcessStartupInfo = new NativeProcessStartupInfo();
                         nativeProcessStartupInfo.executable = file;
                         var process:NativeProcess = new NativeProcess();
                              process.addEventListener(NativeProcessExitEvent.EXIT, onExitError);
                              process.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.STANDARD_OUTPUT_DATA, onOutput);
                              process.start(nativeProcessStartupInfo);
                              process.closeInput();
               import utls.StringHelper;
               public function onOutput(event:ProgressEvent):void {
                    var strHelper:StringHelper = new StringHelper();
                    var output:String = event.target.standardOutput.readUTFBytes(event.target.standardOutput.bytesAvailable);
                         output = strHelper.trimBack(output, "\n");
                         output = strHelper.trimBack(output, "\r");
                    trace('"'+output+'"');
The package that I used is from the manual:
package utls
     public class StringHelper
          public function StringHelper()
          public function replace(str:String, oldSubStr:String, newSubStr:String):String {
               return str.split(oldSubStr).join(newSubStr);
          public function trim(str:String, char:String):String {
               return trimBack(trimFront(str, char), char);
          public function trimFront(str:String, char:String):String {
               char = stringToCharacter(char);
               if (str.charAt(0) == char) {
                    str = trimFront(str.substring(1), char);
               return str;
          public function trimBack(str:String, char:String):String {
               char = stringToCharacter(char);
               if (str.charAt(str.length - 1) == char) {
                    str = trimBack(str.substring(0, str.length - 1), char);
               return str;
          public function stringToCharacter(str:String):String {
               if (str.length == 1) {
                    return str;
               return str.slice(0, 1);
And sorry for the miss topic I just realized that it is on flex topic, but I post it either way it may be useful for anyone

HT5228 How can I tell if my computer has been infected with the Trojan?

How can I tell if my computer has been infected with this latest Trojan (or with any Trojan)? I did install the latest update to Java when I was told by my iMac that new software was available for my computer, which was just 2 or 3 days ago (first week of April). Now it is being said that there was a Java Trojan.
Many thanks for any replies!

Log out and log back in, if you haven’t done so recently. Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
Step 1
Copy or drag — do not type — the line below into the Terminal window, then press return:
launchctl getenv DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES
Post the lines of output, if any, that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.)
Step 2
Repeat with this line (triple-click anywhere in it to select the whole line):
find /Applications /System/Library/CoreServices -type d -name *.app -exec defaults read {}/Contents/Info LSEnvironment \; 2> /dev/null | grep DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
If you get no output from either step, you're not infected with any variant of Flashback that I know of.

How to suffix user name and password remote pc in shutdown /s command

Hi,
We can shutdown a remote pc using " shutdown /s /m \\ipaddress " command, only if password of remote pc is stored in windows credential manager.
But how to add user name and password when i execute the command for example : when we map a share folder on our pc we use below command with user name and password
"net use * \\ipaddress\share password /user:username "
can we give user name and password of remote pc while we give shutdown command to turn off a remote pc (without adding user name and password to windows credentials).
Thanks in advance..........

Hello Jayanth kundar,
Based on my test, I can use the command shutdown /s /m \\10.157.21.77 to shutdown the remote computer when the have the same username and password.
Do you mean that you want to add user name and password when you want to shutdown the remote computer?
I can't find a user name and password in Windows Credential Manager, please share us a screenshot.
Best regards,
Fangzhou CHEN

Transfer the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes Music folder) to your "new" old Mac. Put that folder in User Name>Music. Open iTunes with the option key down. Select "Choose Library." Navigate to the place where the iTunes folder is. Plug in your iPhone and everything is just like before.

How to indentify an unknown shared computer showing in finder?

For quite some time I've been seeing a computer show up under shared in finder. It appears as macbook-2cd86c. When I click on it is states that I'm connected as a "guest". I can identify my husband's MacBook. If it helps to know, we both connect to the internet wirelessly and use AT&T UVerse. I thought that maybe it be the name of the router, but we've changed it a few times and the name of the unknown macbook has remained the same. We also both have iphones that sync to our respective computers. Our network is WPA protected. How can I indentify this unknown computer?

How do I change name of ipod touch on windows when it it says it is a different name?

When I connect my ipod touch to my computer it is recognized as another family members ipod but has my photos. How do I change name?

Another thing to remember is the phone is actually usable for 911 calls and maybe others. Not a real good idea. Especially for a child.
It would depend however on the age of the child.
Good Luck
