I got a new computer and all applications were transferred from the old one. However, when I tried launching Acrobat 8 Professional, I get a message that says: "Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional cannot be opened at this time and I need to launch another application in the suite e.g.Photoshop" which is already launched. Is there some help around this?

It appears that you have the CS. What new OS do you have. If it is Win 8.1, you may have to purchase a new version of Acrobat for that system. Folks have succeeded with AA 8.1 on Win 7, but I have not heard of any successful installs on Win 8.1. As for the issue you have with the new OS, you do have to follow the CS install process that is different than the stand-alone Acrobat (there are some posts that discuss the process if you search).

If i have Time Machine backed up on an external hard drive, do i just plug the drive into another macbook pro and all my stuff is in the new computer? also, does it matter if the new computer is running Lion when the backed up info came from Snow Leopard

If i have Time Machine backed up on an external hard drive, do i just plug the drive into another macbook pro and all my stuff is in the new computer? Also, does it matter if the new computer is running Lion when the backed up info came from Snow Leopard 10.6.8?

No and Yes
Don't use TM for this purpose, clone your drive to an external, plug the external into another MBP and reboot from it. Please note that booting a machine that came with Lion may not be possible from a drive with Snow Leopard.

When attempting to play songs on itunes, getting error message that file cannot be found and asked if i want to locate it. not sure where it went. do have new computer and all files were transferred to new machine.

I just tried to play some songs that i have in itunes and i get an error message that says file can't be located. It appears to be on about half the songs of the thousands I have in there. I do have a new computer and transferred the itunes library about a month ago. I have successfully managed ipod on new computer. I wonder if it is a licensing issue but this is just the second computer althought the third hard drive these songs have been on. It is affecting songs loaded from CD's and purchased from itunes on the old computer alike.

Hi angela dfromtx,
When tracks in iTunes display a it means the file cannot be located; it may have been moved or deleted. You'll have to locate the file manually if it is still available. For more information refer to the following article:

Alternatively, if your media was downloaded from the iTunes Store, you may be able to download it again free of charge:

My old computer died, and all of my itunes music is now on a USB. I have a new computer, but I have not yet downloaded the new itunes to it. How do I go about getting all of my music from the USB onto the new itunes without losing it all?

I need help getting my music from my USB to itunes onto my new computer. I have not yet downloaded itunes to my new computer, because I wanted to know how to do things first.

Is there no ANSWER TO THIS PROBLEM?

I need a new computer. What do you think of the new Lion?

I need a new computer. Should I go for the new LION? 21" ? I have had a Dell?

My guess is WZZZ and I don't agree on Lion. IMHO it's stable and a great OS. While it does have Launchpad as a feature which is very iPad like, Launchpad does not need to be used. I've been using Lion since it's inception and have found it to be simply the next evolution of OS X having migrated from Tiger to Leopard to Snow Leopard and now Lion.
If you need a new computer any new iMac would be a fine choice, which one is right for you would depend on how you intend to use the computer. WZZZ is spot on on the refurbs too, some 2010 models may still be available and some do come with Snow Leopard on it which you can update to Lion if you want. That update would be free as part of Apple's Lion - Up-to-date program.
Transitioning to OS X is pretty easy however to make that transition easier you may find these bookmarks useful.

Just bought a new computer--how do I transfer itunes to the new computer?

Just bought a new computer(windows 7). How do I transfer itunes to windows 7 from windows xp?

You don't have to transfer from your iphone5 to itunes on your computer.
Log into itunes store on your computer using the same appleId you used to purchase those music, go to music library, and you should see all your previously purchased music with a cloud and down arrow symbol next to them.
Click on the cloud, and that song will be downloaded to your computer. Try to look around to see if there's any way to do all downloads at one command.
You should also go back to your old computer and deauthorize that computer from your itunes account, then authorize your new computer as one of the 5 allowed to playback itunes content.
The behavior of itunes may have changed with recent updates. In the past, when I plugged in my iphone to a new computer, I do remember being asked by itunes if I wanted to transfer purchases over. Give it a try and see what happens.
But whatever you do, if your current itunes library is still empty, DO NOT say yes to sync with iphone. It would wipe out your itunes library on your iphone because you would be syncing a blank libary over to the iphone. Sync iphone with your computer itunes library only after the computer's library has more content than your iphone's library. That's just to play it safe.

Hi there besiburuk,
You may find the troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.
Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors

If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
Use another USB cable.
Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
If you checked your connections and are still seeing the error message, check for hardware issues.

Please help. I need to register a new itouch for my daughter but confused about apple id's and getting all her stuff transferred to the new itouch from the old one. Plus I want her to have her own apple Id

My daughter has an old itouch, she uses my apple I'd. I just got her a new I touch, and want to register it, but give her her own apple Id. I just backed up or synced her old itouch to the computer and now I am setting up her new one. If I give her a new apple Id will she then loose all her apps and songs from her old itouch? Please help!! I thought it was supposed to say something like restore from back up or something like that? Maybe that is a next step after I give her her own apple id?

My mac pro suddenly stops working (2011), connection to the monitor stops, but de tiny light on computer still on and all sound stops. what's the problem?

my mac pro suddenly stops working (2011), connection to the monitor stops, but de tiny light on computer still on and all sound stops. what's the problem?

When the display turns off, it is not clear whether the computer has halted, or whether the display subsystem has failed.
Those tests determine whether:
a) Your Mac software had stopped working OR
b) Only the display had stopped working
If the pressing the Caps lock light on the keyboard lights the Caps Lock light on the keyboard, some software is still running -- your Mac has not halted.
If pressing Control-Eject on the keyboard, followed by the Return key shuts down your Mac, the software was still running.
¿Software was still running?
--Yes, the problem is ONLY in the display subsystem
--No, this is a computer-wide problem such as a kernel panic

Recently got a new computer and installed itunes from external drive - all music shows up in the library, however when i click on a song i receive this message "the song could not be used because the original file could not be found". What do i do?

I recently got a new computer and installed itunes from which had been saved onto an external drive - all music shows up in the library, however when I click on a song I receive this message "the song "abc" could not be used because the original file could not be found". What can I do?

I was given the option to locate the file where the song is held. If so select "locate" and direct it to the folder / file where the song is and open it. itunes then will give you the option to use this process to update all of your library. OK that as this will do it automatically instead of doing them one by one. I hope this helps.

Need help desperately. new computer, followed all advice in the previous threads and no flash player

dear all...
i just bought a new computer, just two days old...a sony vaio with windows 7 installed,McAfee installed and IE 32 bits and also firefox installed
everything is working fine except i am unable to get adobe flashplayer to work neither on IE nor on firefox
I downloaded flash, either once prompted or directly from adobe - manually, uninstalled everything, rebooted compu
but every time after installation (or that is at least what the system says) the video still request me to install adobe flash player - i do not get it :-(
I did check adds on, i did check other things mentioned in the threads and all seems to be fine
I hope someone of you can help me...
thanks

Hi, Using IE, go to Tools, Manage addons and look under "Show"(very light text) for Shockwave Flash Object and make sure it is listed and Enabled.
Then using FF, go to plugins and make sure Shockwave Flash is Enabled.
If you computer is a 64bit Operating System, be sure to use the 32bit browser.
Thanks,

All applications were "?" On the dashboard after time machine restore to new hard drive...what went wrong?

Hi folks
I used the cmd R option on booting the MBP and did a disk scan and it reported errors that could not be fixed/repaired.
So I opted to install a brand new 1Tbyte Seagate hybrid hard drive and restore from my time machine backup.
So I installed the new drive in the MBP...it stated that it needed to restore from the internet and I was treated with a rotating globe for about 10 minutes.
It then gave the normal restore options and I opened to format the new drive as a mac drive etc...
Selected the most recent TM backup from USB drive and pointed it to the new formatted HD in the MBP.
So far so good I thought....it said it was restoring....
waited about 4.5 hours and apparently it completed when I was out so I did not see any messages just a normal looking mavericks desktop BUT with "?" In the dashboard where all the applications icons should be?????
I assume something went wrong somewhere so I reinstalled the old HD and restarted TM and it's not starting to backup all 493Gbyte of disk whichI. Understand is normal after a full restore.
So...what to do now??? I'll wait for the 7 odd hours of TM to complete but how best should I proceed with the new HD etc...should I reinstall and copy mavericks to it from a memory stick and then attempt a new restore from the recent TMS backup? Or will this cause issues....
I also have an Inateck hard drive cloning device (brand new never used) so I had wondered if I should simply install the old drive and new drives into this and start the cloning mechanism? OR will this simply clone the errors that were reported on the old drive when it was in the MBP?
In short I'm not sure what to do for the best now and would welcome helpful suggestions as to how to proceed.
thanks
Nick

<<<<UPDATE>>>>
If at first you don't succeed...
Last night after the new 493 Gbyte time machine completed. I once again installed the new drive and restarted the MBP ...waited 10 min for the internet to download the basic disk utilities...restarted the restore from TM and waited 6 hours...Happy days it worked perfectly and like a rocket...the old disk had a read write speed of approx 50-60 Mb/s the new one (hybrid drive) measures at 100-110 Mb/s...programmes open and close noticeably faster and it's better than when the MBP was new...
Apparently this new hybrid drive "learns" frequently used programmes and caches parts that improves start up time etc as time progresses etc...the MBP now starts from cold boot in less than 1 minute compared to 2 plus before...I know minutes should not really matter but it does improve the user experience. I should add I have 16G of RAM installed which does make a difference with Photoshop and Aperture etc.
Hope this helps others or at least encourages people to try hybrid drives over the much more expensive SSD option.

I got a new computer and all applications were transferred to the new one. When I launch Acrobat 8 Professional, I get a warning that Acrobat cannot be launched now and that I need to launch another application e.g. Photoshop which is already launched. An
