Infinity and older computer

Can somebody please help? We've just had infinity installed on a wireless network using the BT homehub. The Mac and newer laptop work ok, but the engineer tried to get the 2005 computer to work for over an hour and failed dismally. We've just been on the phone to the helpdesk, which achieved nothing either. (Gee thanks BT!)
I can't believe they've just left us like this or that we're the only people with an older computer!
Can someone tell me if we buy the Belkin n wireless usb adaptor will this effectively move our old computer onto the new n technology and therefore be able to pick up the internet through the wireless homehub. Any answers in non-techie language would be very much appreciated.

wireless b/g/n will work, just make sure the drivers are up to date. i have an old dell latitude laptop ( 600mhz processor 128mb ram ) & it still works with the hub. it connects with a pcmcia wireless card. i'm on infinity btw,so when they say it won't work well with old p.c.'s, all they mean is you may not get the speeds you are expecting.,but, even with wireless g,it is worth doing
free your computer, use opensource
i'm a linux user & very happy about it

How do I create a new library in LR5 with photos from LR3 and older computer?

I want to take photos I originally imported with LR3 on an older computer and creat a new library in LR5 on my new computer. I want to throw out all old metadata, folder names and keywords and start from scratch. How would I go about this. My photo library is on an external drive. Thanks.

I guess I hadn't thought about the fact I'd lose my edits. I have just a little experience with LR. I've realized that I did not organize and cateorize my photos in a useful way when I first created the library and want to start over. Perhaps I should just plug my photo drive into my new computer and go through photo by photo resorting them and reentering keywords and folder names. If you have any suggestions on how to best to this, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Old Ipod and Older Computer

Hello all,
I have an older imac, running a version of 9.? and I have a Gen 1 ipod. I need itunes to run this an have been unable to find the disk that came with my ipod/computer. Does anyone know where I can find such an older version of itunes? Pls email me [email protected]

Try here: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macos/9688. This is a link to download iTunes 2.0.4. Good luck. BTW, what model of iMac do you have?

Ipod Touch 4th generation and older computer

Need your opinions guys.
I've been toying with the idea of purchasing the newest iTouch. I currently have a 2nd gen iTouch. But the thing is, I don't have the require OS 5 (I have OS 10.4) nor can I use iTunes 10 (am using iTunes 9)
I was thinking to use it just for apps/camera and keep using the older iTouch for my mp3's . I can purchase apps via Wifi. But then, I wouldn't be able to get software updates then, right? Does anyone else have an older OS system and have the iTouch 4th gen? Are the ways to work around this?
Trying NOT to make a rash decision here.
Thanks - Rebecca

I would not get one unless you have the rquirements.
All syncing is done via itunes.
If you have an issue, you would have to restore from itunes.

Sounds like you'll need to access that drive while it is not booted. You need to replace it anyway, so do that, then one way or another (ext enclusure, et), access it and copy files.
If you keep trying to boot it, you might kill it for good and not get your files, so just swap it out first.

Apple changed MobileMe to iCloud and then restricted iCloud to 10.7 users only unfortunately
If your machine is a 64 bit processor Intel Mac you can upgrade to 10.7 for $29, however a lot of your 10.5/10.6/Rosetta based software could cease to function, especially third party hardware drivers for printers, fax machines, all-in-ones, scanners etc.
http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
Also depending how old the machine is, if it can accept 4GB of RAM (preferred), older video card, may not run 10.7 very well or stable.
My advice is to keep at 10.6.8, get a web based email service that's plaform/hardware neutral, forward your iPhone emails there. Gmail/Yahoo Mail for instance.
When your ready for new hardware and all new software, then buy a new machine.
If your going to go to 10.7 on your present hardware, I advise you clone 10.6.8 to a external drive first, that way you can c boot off the 10.6 disk erase the drive completely (necessary to remove hidden Lion Recovery Partition) and option boot off the 10.6.8 clone and reverse clone.

Since i have an older computer, i was hoping to download iTune 10.6.3 verison instead of the newest version, can i still do that and if so, how do I?

hello everyone,
I was just wondering if it is possible to download a older version of iTunes instead of the newest one. My reason behind that being is I'm using an older computer that is running on windows, and if I were to download the latest version, not only would it take hours to download on my computer but I'm pretty sure it wouldn't run properly due to my ancient RAM system. so I was hoping somebody out there would know how to do download iTunes 10.6.3 version from apple? the reason I ask for this version is because its the oldest version my iPod can run on. Thank you for taking time to read this ridiculously long paragraph over a simple question..lol and thanks in advance if you have the answer to it as well!

I have a new Mac Pro computer and have migrated my files from my older computer to the new computer. In trying to open a Lightroom catalog on an external hard drive I keep on getting the message "lightroom cannot use the catalog named " " because it is not writable and cannot be opened. I have fixed all the "permissions" and yet it will still not open. How do I fix this?

Hello Forum Members,
I figured it out. You have to select the actual logo of the Lightroom catalog and then click on "get info" and allow what ever your new user name to "read and write". That worked!

Unable to enroll Computer certificates on Server 2008 R2 and older

I've found a strange issue with our CA setup, and it didn't used to be a problem. While renewing some internal certificates a couple of months ago I discovered that systems of the Windows 7/Server 2008 R2 and older families cannot enroll for a Computer
certificate or for a custom template I built for web servers. Systems of the Windows 8/Server 2012 and newer families can enroll using the exact same user and process without any trouble. Direct IIS "domain certificate" enrollment still
works.
I'm enrolling with the Certificates MMC snap-in to allow use of the enhanced security template I built. I open MMC, add the local computer certificates snap-in, and then attempt to request a certificate with Personal > Certificates > All Tasks
> Request New Certificate. I choose the Active Directory Enrollment Policy but then get the "Certificate types are not available" error message and a blank selection screen. If I check the box to show all templates the certificates
I want are listed with:
"The permissions on this certification authority do not allow the current user to enroll for certificates. A valid certification authority (CA) configured to issue certificates based on this template cannot be located, or the CA doesn't' support this
operation, or the CA is not trusted."
I've checked Event Viewer on both the CA and the clients, along with the CA request logs, but there's nothing visibly wrong. The error message seems to say it all but since Windows 8/2012 clients and newer work I know the CA is functional and that
the Administrator account can request certificates. I've searched the web but can't find anything like this specific issue.
Any ideas?
Thank you!

Hi Amy.
Domain Admins and Enterprise Admins have Read/Write/Enroll. Authenticated Users have Read.
I also created a copy of an existing certificate (Web Server) but am unable to see it when I go to New > Certificate Template to Issue. Our domain has had plenty of time to replicate the copied template.
I don't recall making any changes that would have affected a computer's ability to enroll. There has been some Group Policy work done and a new certificate template was created and marked to issue, but this problem was picked up by accident when I
went to generate internal certificates back in October. All administrative work is done as the domain Administrator account.
We didn't have issues with this CA when it was first built, so something did change. We don't have a large PKI environment, just some internal web sites, so if it comes to it I may just start over with everything. When we moved to Server 2012
on this system it was an upgrade from a Server 2003 CA that was never properly used or maintained. It may be better just to clean everything and get one consistent root certificate again.

I have a new MacBook Pro with OS X Lion 10.7.4. The DVD player does not have a feature to store film clips. Why? This is useful for my work and I had it on my older computer? Why the loss of capacity?

I cannot recall the DVD player ever being a place to "store" videos - it is simply an app to play videos.
If your machine is new, then iMovie should be included as the "shrunk" version of iLife is included with Lion (iMovie, Garageband, and iPhoto). However, iMovie is not a place to store videos either - it is a video editor. You import your clips and edit them in order to then burn to a DVD or share via a social media site.
Have you considered simply dragging the clips to your folder "Movies"? That would be a great place to just store them (please be aware that videos are usually large files, so keep your hard drive space in mind so you keep a minimum free and available for the OS to operate properly):

Hello, I use MAC AIR OSX 10.6.8 and have Adobe CS2, that I was using 2 years ago on my older computer. I stopped using it because it would close down in the middle of work. Now I would like to reinstall it on the MacAir but I can not get it working. It tells Adobe doesnT support my System. But I can not update my old version or activate it. What can I do?

The mac you want to install photoshop cs2 on is running mac os x 10.6.8 Snow Leopard?
(photoshop cs2 won't run on intel macs with mac os x newer than snow leopard)
Did you ever have cs2 installed on this particular computer before?
If the problem is that you already installed cs2, but it won't activate, that's because adobe took the activation servers offline for some older adobe products such as cs2.
You'll need to use the non activation version of cs2 from here and the supplied serial number:
Activation server shut down for Creative Suite 2, Acrobat 7, and Macromedia products

I have a Olympus C-3000 and it won't read in the new iphoto. It reads in my old version on my older computer. Is there a driver I need or something else?

I have a Olympus C-3000 and it won't read in the new iphoto. It reads in my old version on my older computer. Is there a driver I need or something else?

Yes, different computers, different OS's, as stated, does not work on any machine except PPC.
Nothing in console logs. Does not show up in USB under system profiler.
Level 1 tech support. "May be this" or "may be that", but all a waste of time unless someone has the actual camera and can independently verify my results.
If it were just a matter of it happening on one machine that would be one thing. The fact that it only does not work on Intel based machines (and thus Snow Leopard and Lion) it is a pretty good indicator that something is missing in the OS.

I'm using an older mac (2008 iMac). Things were getting slow and I used a program called DupZapper to get rid of a lot of duplicate files. It worked and my computer is running better. The only problem is now InDesign crashes at startup. I have the original disks and serial number (CS3) The error message is "required resources are missing". Same message if I try to uninstall. Any clues as to how to re-install?

reset your preferences and retry launching id: InDesign Help | Setting preferences
if that fails, uninstall (properly with the uninstaller), clean and reinstall per Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
