IMac (27-inch Mid 2010), Mac OS X (10.6.8), PS CS6 extended student and teacher edition software???

Hi,   I have an i-mac 27" bought in 2010 OSX 10.6.8. Yesterday I couldn't open the software PS CS6 (extended student and teacher edition) anymore - that I have bought on May23, 2014 and dowloaded from internet. (I don't want a I-cloud version).
Please tell what to do. thanks

Your Mac should certainly be able to boot 64 bit. Just to test, restart and hold down the 6 and 4 keys. Then check the System Profiler to see if the 64-bit Kernel and Extensions says "Yes".
Yet, when I look in my Activity Monitor, I see Intel (64-bit) under "Kind" running for almost all the processes except for a couple.
That's normal. The kernel can boot 32 or 64 bit. But all 64 bit software, system or third party, can still run 64 bit under a 32 bit kernel.
Also, does enabling 64-bit mode have any effect on Rosetta?
No.
Is there any disadvantage to running in 64-bit mode (ie: will certain things not work)?
Not really. The only real issue is drivers that must load during startup. If they're 32 bit only, they won't load if you start up to a 64 bit kernel. You would then be unable to use the device the driver is for.
Here's the configuration file approach for always booting into 64-bit. This is the best way to make your Mac always start up 64 bit as the only thing necessary is to alter one line of a configuration file. You can do that by opening the Terminal and entering (or copy the next line and paste in into Terminal):
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot 'Kernel Flags' 'arch=x86_64'
To return to 32 bit mode, you would repeat the command but enter an empty string, which would just be the single quotes (where arch=x86_64 is in the above command) with nothing in between.
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot 'Kernel Flags' ''
The forums wrap these commands to fit the box, but if you copy/paste it, they will be one line.

  • Re-installing Photoshop CS5 Extended Student and Teacher Edition (for Mac)?

    How can I download and re-install Photoshop CS5 Extended Student and Teacher Edition (for Mac) for which I have a licence?  I lost the previous version in a disk crash.  I tried downloading the full Photoshop CS5 installer, but I was told I couldn't run the installer because I didn't have permission. 
    Thanks,
    Rodney

    Here is the link for the  CS5 installers: Download CS5 products
    Be sure to right click and run the installer as an administrator if you have trouble. If it still fails, download the installer again.

  • How to upgrade my iMac 27-inch Mid 2010 for video editing?

    Hi there, I have an iMac 27-inch, Mid 2010 1TB that I would like to upgrade to work well with film editing (using programs like Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects.)
    My System's specs:
    iMac 27 Inch Mid-2010
    - 3.2 GHz Intel Core i3
    - 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    - ATI Radeon HD 5670 512 MB
    - Last 4 Digits of the Serial Number is JDNP
    I'm quite unfamiliar with upgrading an iMac and was hoping I could find some help here regarding what is possible to upgrade on my system?  I understand that installing RAM is quite easy, but is it possible to upgrade the Processor and Graphics Card?  And what about Installing a bigger hard drive or SSD?  Also, where do I take my iMac to get these upgrades?  Apple Store?  Hopefully I'm not sounding like a complete idiot here.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    If you are not computer savvy and have never upgraded a computer before, then you need to see what Apple can do for you, but it maybe better to take your Mac to a third party Apple authorised reseller/repair center as they will be more likely to do actual modifications to your Mac. Apple stores tend to only stick with installing stock OEM Apple hardware.
    The CPU cannot be replaced or upgraded or replaced as I believe it is soldered to the logic board.
    The GPU maybe able to be upgraded, but the only other GPU option that it can be replaced with is the the 1 GB VRAM GPU version that was a GPU chip model available during the 2010 iMac model year.
    This will be hard to locate and, probably, very expensive to purchase (at least $300 U.S.D..).
    A third party Mac compatible SSD should be able to be installed, but will be expensive, too!
    Get as large an SSD as you can afford to purchase and pay for the installation.
    If you stick with a traditional hard drive, your Mac can take up to a 3 TB hard drive.
    You CAN install additional RAM yourself. However your Mac year and model will only take a total of 16 GBs of RAM.
    Correct, compatible and reliable Mac RAM can ONLY be purchased from online RAM sources Crucial memory or OWC (http://www.macsales.com).

  • IMac (24-inch Mid 2007), Mac OS X (10.6.8) small water spill on keyboard. Why can't I access web now?

    I accidentally spilled water on keyboard for my iMac (24-inch Mid 2007), Mac OS X (10.6.8). Since then, I have dryed it out. Several keys aren't working so I tried another, albeit older, keyboard. That one worked fine but for some reason I cannot access tthe web on Safari or Firefox. It's still picking up my wiireless network and every other devise on the vetwork access the web just fine. There is also a progress bar that shows up while the computer is starting up that didn't used to be there. What can I do to fix this?

    Sounds like your system is starting up in Safe Mode. Go to System Preferences > Startup Disk and select your hard drive and then restart your system.

  • ASUS PB278Q with iMac (27-inch, Mid 2010) using DisplayPort

    Hi,
    I bought a new display ASUS PB278Q (27-inch). So I can use my PC with a bigger screen and also extend my iMac (27-inch, Mid 2010) with it.
    I'm using OSX 10.9.5
    - Idea was to connect my PC to monitor using DualLink-DVI cable - which worked fine. %
    - My iMac to monitor using Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable - after that display says -- DisplayPort - No signal --
    Could it be that the cable is wrong? Or what can it be
    I would really need some help.
    Thank you and best regards.

    Solved.
    I bought better Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort -cable and then the resolution from iMac to ASUS PB278Q got the wanted 2560*1440.
    Now I'm happy.
    Resolution out from
    - PC is 2560*1440 via DualLink DVI-cable
    - iMac is 2560*1440 via Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort -cable and for both screens, iMac 27-inch and ASUS 27-inch
    - Playstation 3 is 1920*1080 via HDMI-cable

  • Installing Microsoft Office:mac 2004 Student and Teacher Edition

    I am trying to install Microsoft Office:mac 2004 student and teacher edition.
    I don't know how to achieve this.
    I have tried the Office Setup Assistant but it says "You can't open the application "Office Setup Assistant" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.
    So, I assume I have to do the "Drag the Microsoft Office 2004 folder to your hard disk to install all Office components" option.
    Being very new to iMac, my question is, "Where exactly do I drag it to?  Which icon along the bottom or should it go somewhere else?
    Any help would be great
    Thanks

    It will not work with Mountain Lion. You need Office 2011 for OS X.
    Office 2004 and Other Applications Don't Work in Lion/Mountain Lion
    If you have Office 2004 which is a PPC-only suite, it will not work in Lion/Mountain Lion. You need to upgrade to Office 2011 - Mactopia - or you can try the freeware suite, Libre Office, that is functionally similar to Office 2007 for Windows except it works on Lion/Mountain Lion.
    You may want to consider as well:
    These two suites are similar to Libre Office but not as current or as well-supported:
    NeoOffice
    Open Office
    And, then there is Apple's iWork suite:
    Pages - word processing and layout
    Keynote - presentation
    Numbers - spreadsheet
    Each can open and save Office compatible files. They may be purchased separately via the Mac App Store for $19.99 each.
    As for other software, any PPC-based software will not run in Lion or Mountain Lion because Rosetta is no longer part of OS X. You will need to upgrade to Intel versions of the software.
    (Access to the Mac App Store requires Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or higher and an Apple ID.)

  • Installing Microsoft Office Student and Teacher Edition 2004 (Mac)?

    Before I install Microsoft Office 2004-Student and Teacher Edition (Mac), Do I need to Uninstall/Trash the TRIAL Versions of Word, Excel, Powerpoint and Entourage that came with the computer?
    *I have not activated the Microsoft Office 2004 Test Drive (30 day trial) yet for Word, Excel, Powerpoint and Entourage, which
    was already installed on my computer.
    Do I need to activate the trial?
    or Do I need to just Uninstall/Trash each ot the individual programs I mentioned above, Before I continue, to keep it from messing up the installion?
    Thanks In Advance!!
    Imac G5 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

    Hi FritztheKat (he was a very naughty kitty ,
    If you never installed the Test Drive, then simply trash it. Otherwise, you'll need to run the uninstall application and reinstall the full version, or it will eventually time out. If you can't remember if you installed the trial version, then keep it around on an external disk or CD-R/RW. Though as mentioned above, the full version gives you the option of uninstalling both the full and trial versions at once before reinstalling, so you shouldn't need to keep the trial version around. You can always download it again if necessary.
    Being at 10.4.6 for Tiger and with all updates installed for Office, there's nothing else to do there.
    As far as which apps to use, that's up to you. I use Entourage simply because it came with Office. That's not to say it's a better program by default than OS X's Mail. But I've never used Mail, so can't comment on which has the upper hand.
    You already have iChat, so MSN messenger isn't needed. But I just don't do any chatting online, so can't really tell you if one has features the other doesn't.
    If you do a lot of work for or with companies and/or PC users in general, then Word is the way to go for word processing. 100% compatibility with the majority of users when sharing documents is a big plus in that catagory.
    The Creative Suite will work fine (according to those using it on an Intel based Mac), but it will be rather slow since it has to be run through the Rosetta emulation. As will Office. Both Microsoft and Adobe have hinted that the next release of their products will be Spring of 2007. At which point, they'll be Universal apps, and so native to Intel Macs.

  • I bought cs6 student and teacher edition, but it says in the instruction if i wanted to install it in mac, i should click the install.app.

    Bakz did you just purchase CS6?  If so you may want to work with your reseller to obtain a Mac version of the license.
    If that fails then please see Order product | Platform, language swap for information on how to request a change of your Windows license to a Mac OS license.

  • Why is the download "Not applicable" for my online purchase of Adobe Captivate 8 Student and Teacher Edition for Mac?

    I purchased “Adobe Captivate 8 Student and Teacher Edition” for Mac on 7/31/14 and it is now 12/17/14 (only 5 months later) but it is showing as “Not applicable” when I go to download (maybe re-download) the program. I understood that I would be able to use the application on 2 computers, one at home and one at work. I think I’ve downloaded the program at home one time but have yet to install and activate it. I now have a new computer at work that can support that program and want to install the program on my office computer, but cannot download it again. Please advise.

    It seems like that you have purchased a subscription for Captivate 8. In subscription you do not require any serial number. Subscriptions are activated on the basis of your Adobe Id. When user will install Captivate he has to sign in with the same Adobe Id under which they bought subscription. It will get activated after successful sign in during the installation.
    As far as the installer is concern there is no difference in the trial version installer or purchased version installer. The installer is same for trial and purchased copy. All user needs to do is sign in during the installation if it is a subscription or use his serial number if it is a perpetual license or volume license.
    You may download the trial version from the link mentioned above and then use your Adobe Id to activate the subscription.
    Please let me know in case you need any further information.
    Regards,
    Rajeev.

    Thanks for your response.

    Hello Mel,
    I would not trust it, its impossible to have a a Lifetime License for 100$
    So best would be to contact a Reseller or just buy via the Adobe website,
    then you know its legit and trustworthy.

    I purchased Photoshop Lightroom 5 student and teacher edition on June 11, 2014 and installed it on my Mac Book Pro Lap Top.  My computer was recently stolen from my locker at the university.  Can I reinstall this software on the new Mac Book Pro that I purchased?

    This is a user-to-user forum that is primarily supported by other users such as yourself who have no affiliation with Adobe. It is never a good idea to post your serial number on a public forum. We don't have any access to Adobe records, and your serial number is now available for anyone to use. Bad choice. You can download the latest version of Lightroom 5 from the following website and use your serial number (hopefully) to activate it.

  • My father-in-law passed recently, leaving behind an unopened copy of CS 5.5 Master Collection Student and Teacher Edition for Macs.  How can I find out if he registered this software without opening it?

    Hello forum,
    Hopefully a simple question.  My father-in-law passed recently, leaving behind an unopened copy of CS 5.5 Master Collection Student and Teacher Edition for Macs.  How can I find out if he registered this software without opening it?  After finding out how much this software runs, I'd like to sell or return it if possible to give the money to my mother-in-law for funeral costs.
    Thank you,

    Mylenium,
    Thanks for the quick response!
    Thats a shame that it can't be used. Are you sure I couldn't donate the software to a university or school?  It just seems like a big waste for something so expensive.

  • Can I upload CS6 standard student and teacher version onto both my iMac AND Macbook??

    I bought the disk for the CS6 standard student and teacher version a few years ago (before it was controlled through creative cloud)
    I have it installed on my iMac but I want to get a Macbook now so I can do work on the go
    I want to know if I will be able to install my CS6 onto this new Macbook and then have it on both iMac and Macbook
    I still have the disk and the code but am I allowed to have it uploaded onto more than one cumputer?
    It is all for personal use but I'd like to have a definite answer before I invest in a Macbook before I realise I have to buy Adobe again
    Please someone get back soon! Thanks

  • CS6 I have a Student and Teacher Edition (incl. 3 license) for Windos. Is it possible to use one of these licenses for mac?

    CS6 I have a Student and Teacher Edition (incl. 3 license) for Windos. Is it possible to use one of these licenses for mac?

    jasontc:
    The answer is yes. If you use the "alias" method (in iPhoto's Advanced Preference pane - don't copy files when importing) you can use your own source folder system. You can also share the source files with another image management application. There are some unique issues, however. Any edit of a photo by iPhoto is not seen by the other application as the edited version is saved in iPhoto's Modified folder. If the other application can perform edits on the source file and save the edits to the actual source file, iPhoto's thumbnail of that file will not reflect the change but the edit will display when you open the photo in iPhoto's edit window or use that photo in a book or slideshow. If iPhoto hasn't edited before hand. If iPhoto edits the other application's edited version the source file is not touched. Also any file added to an existing source folder has to be manually imported into iView and then moved within iPhoto from its roll to the roll representing the source folder it was placed in via the Finder. When moved in iPhoto the source file will physically be moved to that folder in the Finder. Hope I haven't confused you with this convoluted description.
    So with some quirks you can use another application like iView MediaPro on the same set of source files.
    I do the above with iPhoto and iView.
