I have Adobe Photoshop CS5 installed in two computers. The hard drive of my home computer crashed and I had no time to deactivate the software. The hard drive needed to be formatted. How can I activate the software CS5 again ? Thank you for an answer.

If it's the same computer, same CPU and same HD, no de-activation or re-activation should be necessary.
Install from scratch and apply all updates manually.
Please do a forum search.  I and others have repeatedly answered the question about failed updates of CS5 a whole bunch of times recently.
Bottom line:  the Adobe auto updater is utterly useless in CS5 and prior versions.  You need to download the updates and apply them manually yourself.
I and others have even supplied the links for Mac and Win, which you haven't even bothered to specify.

    Hi Craig
    Unfortunately, in your case, there isn't really a way to separate them as far as I can think.
    You could try restoring from a backup, and choosing an older backup perhaps

    How can I activate the need of licens?
    The reason can be Adobe policy, I have change computer, added products, stop using any product and so on.

    Hans,
    When you no longer need the Adobe software on a computer or you wish to move it to another one, you should deactivate the software.
    See this link: how to deactivate software. Installation rules will let you install the software on two computers of the same platform (both windows or both mac) but you are limited to running it on only one at a time. If you have only installed it once, you should be able to install it on the other computer. If you have already installed the software twice and you don't have access to your previous computer or you upgraded your computer's hardware, replace a hard drive, upgraded your operating system, or reformatted your drive before deactivating your software, you can ask Adobe Support to help you deactivate the software from the machine. Just have your serial number or Adobe ID ready, and then contact support. Then you can install the software from the links below and enter your serial number to re-activate the software.
    If you need to find your serial number, sign in to your Adobe account. On the Manage Accounts page that appears, all of your registered products and their serial numbers are listed in the Plans & Products section. For more information on locating serial numbers, or on registering a serial number, please see Find a serial number.

    I purchased Adobe photoshop elements II and Adobe premiere elements II. They are both on one disc. My computer crasded and I had to reload Windows. I only have one serial number and it only works with photoshop II. The same serial number will not work for Premiere. I dont have any other serial numbers. What do I do???

    I am getting a bit concerned about what is happening in your situation. Yesterday you posted your question in at least two different forums, one of them being here in the Premiere Elements Forum.
    Don't Have Serial Number for Premiere, Only Photoshop?
    Wherever you posted, the reply was to contact Adobe via its Adobe Chat. It is the only one who can sort out this matter for you.
    In the thread cited above I offered to help you with the difficulties that you were having visualizing the Adobe Chat in its web page. I was waiting for your follow up on that in the above thread. Instead, I find your same question in a new Adobe Premiere Elements Forum thread this afternoon with no refer the prior threads or prior recommendations given you.
    I will also mention again...when you buy the Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements bundled in one packaging and with installation files for each on the same installation disc, each program has its own serial number. The Photoshop Elements serial number does not work for Premiere Elements and vice versa. The serial numbers are on labels on a box which houses the installation disc envelope(s). So, if you purchased both programs and found the Photoshop Elements serial number, then the Premiere Elements serial number should be in a label right underneath the label with the serial number for Photoshop Elements. I recall writing this in your yesterday's thread on this matter.
    The moderator will no doubt be along shortly to close or delete this thread. So, just in case, please bookmark your yesterday's thread cited above so that we can continue this communication which is trying to help you.
    Thanks.

  • How can I activate the transfer rules for the ODS updating a data target.

    We are on BW 3.5 and I'm loading data into the 0FIGL_O10 ODS  and then uploading the data into the cube 0FIGL_C10. The data loads just fine to the ODS but when I try to <u><b>'update the data target'</b></u> I get a date & time stamp' error on the info-package transfer rules.
    I then Replicate the datasource 80FIGL_O01.
    I must then <u><b>'activate' the transfer rules</b></u>.
    However I cannot get the transfer rules for 80FIGL_O10 in CHANGE MODE to activate them.
    How can I activate the transfer rules for the ODS updating a data target.
    The error text is as follows:
    DataSource 80FIGL_O10 has to be replicated (time stamp, see long text)
    Message no. R3016
    Diagnosis
    DataSource 80FIGL_O10 does not have the same status as the source system in the Business Information Warehouse.
    The time stamp in the source system is 02/15/2007 10:42:33.
    The time stamp in the BW system is 11/07/2006 13:11:54.
    System response
    The load process has been terminated.
    <b>Procedure
    Copy the DataSource again and then activate the transfer rules that belong to it. You have to activate the transfer rules in every case, even if they are still active after the DataSource has been copied.</b>
    Thanks for your assistance.

    Thank you, Michel, for your helpful answer.  I have downloaded SmartCurve and saved the files in C:\program files\adobe\Photoshop elements\plug-ins.  I re-started PhotoShop.  Do I access SmartCurve to adjust curves from within PhotoShop? 
    You can acces it from the menu 'Filters', there is a line called 'Easy.Filter', click it and it shows 'Smartcurve'.
    Separately, can I upgrade my PhotoShop Elements to Photoshop without signing up to the CC 'rental' system of monthly payments?  Sincere thanks,  Ted
    I know that you don't need the CC 'rental' subscription to have Photoshop, but as far as I know, there is no upgrade path from Elements except periodical special offers.

    Unfortunately, your best bet is to obtain original proof of purchase and escalate your issue for assistance in detaching the Apple ID from that device. If your unable to get the proof of purchase, expensive paperweight . Did you get it through amazon?? Because I just got one through amazon....

  • How can I activate the spell corrector as I write in Microsoft word?

    How can I activate the spell corrector as I write in Microsoft word?

    Everything you need is in the Spelling and Grammar preference pane, within Word's Preferences.
    Check the boxes, "Check spelling as you type", & "Always suggest corrections".
    As well, there is a button for checking the document, called "Check Document", which you can use on an existing document that has not been checked yet.

    Lack of support from that company seems to be a non-uncommon problem. But it's not a problem you will be likely to get help with in the Communities, and definitely not here in the "Using Apple Support Communities" forum which is for questions about the Communities themselves. If MacWare can't or won't help you, you may be stuck, though there was an email address posted in this thread:
