Is there a step by step guide to transfer licences?

I have a PC that has started having the following message: 'windows detected a hard disk problem. ‘Back up your files immediately to prevent information loss and then contact the computer manufacture to determine if you need to repair or replace the disk.' It is highly likely I will need a new hard disk and if it is sent to the manufacturer it will need to be re set to factory condition. I believe I may lose some registry settings etc.
Since buying the PC I have purchased Adobe Design Premium so if I do end up with a new hard disk or even a new PC - how do I ensure I can transfer the software without any license implications? Some threads have contradictory info about deactivating or not deactivating first - I'd really appreciate a simple step by step guide - would be good if Adobe could issue an authorised one too!
Many thanks in anticipation

Help --> Deactivate in any of the suite apps, then simply instal lthe software on teh new machine. if the activation doesn't work, call support to reset it server side. Nothing more required.

I want to update my IPad's operating system but when I tried to so, I got a message at Itunes advising all my apps would be removed? Is there a step by step guide for doing this update and retaining my apps? I am completely lost....

I want to update my 1st generation IPad which has a current OS of 4.2.1 to the latest 5.0 OS. I tried to do this through my ITunes account but got a warning that continuing would delete my apps, etc. I don't want that to happen! I have ZERO tech ability/know-how and need an idiot-proof, step by step guide to performing the update. Any help most appreciated. I haven't got a clue how to back up anything on the IPad, either.
Many thanks!!

First copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. You should also backup the device (right-click the iPad 'device' and select 'back up'), and copy off any important documents, files, notes etc (e.g. by email, the file sharing section at the bottom of the Apps tab on your computer's iTunes, via wifi, whatever the apps that you use support) - the update process should backup and restore the content but it's best to be safe.
There is some more info on this page about updating to iOS 5 : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972

I just replaced my hard drive and am trying to install the Snow Leppard OS on my Mac mini using the DVD's that came with the unit. Is there a step by step procedure that will guide me through this process?

I just replaced my hard drive due to failure in my Mac mini. I am trying to load the Snow Leppard OS from the DVD's that came with the unit. Is there a step-by-step procedure somewhere that would help me? This is my first problem with my first Mac. I thought getting to the hard drive and changing it would be the hard part but I made it through that with little trouble. My lack of software experience on the Mac is really slowing me down. I believe I'm not making the right choices in the Disk Utility program.Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Prep the new drive:
Drive Preparation
1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
Upon completion quit DU and return to the installer. Install OS X. When the installation has completed you can proceed to restore your data from your backups. If you have an existing backup from Time Machine or another hard drive then upon completing the Setup Assistant you will have an option to restore from another Mac, a TM backup, or another drive. Use the appropriate option.

Is there a step-by-step guide for MOC ?

I'm looking to get a step-by-steo guide as to how my.oracle.com
(MOC) was developed. The "white paper" is just background
material and not what I was looking for. I'm looking for a how-
to ONE-STOP-SHOP guide. This would be the biggest selling point
for Oracle Portal.
Is it out there?

Hi,
I would like to have the step-by-step guide for MOC development, if you got one already.

Is there a step by step guide for getting splash on arch?

hi,
i looked every where for a step by step guide for getting splash on bootup working on arch.
i know if you use archlinux you're suppose to figure out things for youreself, which i handle pritty well i think, but kernel stuff, i am not sure for now, and i dont have time (exams) to break my system so if anyone could point me to a step by step guide, i will thank him.

AFAIK there isn't a way. I tried to get fbsplash working recently without much success.
There were a few rather complicated methods, and I thought the easiest way was to use an initrd image. Obviously, the default kernel already uses one so I recompiled a kernel to have support for an initrd image, but not need to use one. Then I used splashutils to create an initrd image with the splash image contained and booted the kernel using this as an image. Kernel booted, but no splash. I then gave up. I also had to patch the splashutils scripts as they were broken in places. Right at the moment, I don't crave a splash image enough to warrant more hacking.
fbsplash is meant to work without the fbcondecor kernel patch, so I didn't try using it. This may be a path you want to try out.

Is there a step by step guide on upgrading from leopard to lion inlcuding data backup and migration?

is there a step by step guide on upgrading from leopard to lion inlcuding data backup and migration?

Let me just give you the breakdown:
Snow Leopard (10.6) needs to be purchased. You need Snow Leopard because it has the Mac App StoreAlternatively, you could get the Lion USB drive, but much more expensive
Once you have installed Snow Leopard, open the Mac App Store and find OS X Lion. This downloads OS X Lion Installer. After the download finishes, click on it, follow the steps and the installation begins!
No data will be lost during any of the upgrades
Let me know if you have any further questions.

Hi all,
If just recently made my 1st database and I am stuck what to do next.

Thanks in advance

My ipad doesn't appear in iTunes. I have followed the Apple troubleshooting tips and step by step guide but it is still not there

My iPad doesn't appear in iTunes. I have followed the Apple troubleshooting guide, step by step. I have rebooted both devices, checked that I have a USB 2.0 and still it doesn't appear under devices. The iPad shows as a camera in iPhoto and downloads the photos but doesn't show as a device.

Do you have a PC? if so, go into the control panel, look for the add/remove programs. Look for one named something like 'apple mobile device support'. remove it and restart your computer. then plug your device in and see if the driver installs.

Step by Step guide for upload iPad only apps

Please note that this is not derived from me alone.
This Knowledge is derived from three forum members, DutyFarm, ChoosingNameCanBeSoXXX & Dei_Machiavelli.
I just add the solution for generate the .xcent file.
[Atleast enough for me to make it work.]
Welcome that if anyone find that this step by step guide not detail enough, you can copy and add more points and post again.
Step 1:
Make sure that all the Icons for the iPad are accounted for because if you don't, Application Loader will Scream
[For some strange reason, you have to add the Old iPhone Icon Size as well]:
                         Old iPhone: 57 by 57 [Icon]
             Start Up Icon for iPad: 72 by 72 [Icon-iPad.png].
SpotLight Search for iPad Must Have: 48 by 48 [Icon-iPad-spot.png]
Step 2:
Load the Mac, unzip your *.ipa file, place the *.app file on your desktop and modify its internal Info.plist file.
Change 3.0 to 3.2 here:
<key>MinimumOSVersion</key>
<string>3.2</string>
Step 3:
Because after you change the Info.plist file by your own way, the file will changed to wrong codesign.
So that will need this step to change it back to right codesign which can success upload to apple store.
Create this weird NameOfYourApp.xcent file on your desktop:
That strange 10 digit is the App ID:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
    <key>application-identifier</key>
    <string>APP_ID_Letters_&_NUMBER_HERE.com.whatever.YourAppName</string >
    <key>get-task-allow</key>
    <true/>
</dict>
</plist>
Step 4:
Now Type this in Terminal:
/usr/bin/codesign -f -s "iPhone Distribution: Yours Distribution Cert Name" "--resource-rules=/Users/ABC/Desktop/YourAppName.app/ResourceRules.pl ist" --entitlements "/Users/ABC/Desktop/YourAppName.xcent" "/Users/ABC/Desktop/YourAppName.app"
iPhone Distribution: Yours Distribution Cert Name << This you can check back at your Cert in Keychain.
/Users/ABC/Desktop/ : here is assume that your username in you Mac OS is ABC. But more easily, you can put all the file at any path you want.
I just put all files at the iPad folder at system disk root. so that the path just /iPad/ .
OK, if no error come out, congrats that you are done. You can upload the app by Application Loader. (Assume that you know what is it, and need to zip you .ipa before upload)
BUT, LIKE ME and some member here, we see two error after the Step 4 command as below:
/Users/kevs/Desktop/MyApp.xcent: unrecognized blob type (accepting blindly)
/Users/kevs/Desktop/MyApp.xcent: invalid length in entitlement blob
After few night try..... finally I found out the solution and just successfully submit the iPad App!!!
The main problem was we used a wrong method to create that stupid MyApp.xcent file!!!!
I used many many method, use Mac text editor, Window notepad, Mac/ Window Dreamweaver as .xml......
but all facing the strange "invalid length in entitlement blob"
why invalid length?!?! so I try to search for what is .xcent..... finally I found the following webpage
http://www.246tnt.com/iPhone/
it's talk about codesign and entitlement files.
then..... I FOUND .xcent NOT ONLY A SAMLPE TEXT FILE!!!!!
in the middle of the link above, there are a highlighted simple script , which is a python script to help us generate a .xcent entitlement file!!!!!
Here is step by step solution to solve this error:
1) just download the .py file here: simple script
2) put the .py file anywhere you like, or just simply put in the root of you mac
3) turn on the Terminal (in /Applications/Utilities), goto the folder where you put the .py
4) TYPE: python gen_entitlements.py 5C297XXXXX.com.yourdomain.MyApp myApp.xcent
    Where 5C297XXXXX.com.yourdomain.MyApp is your AppID with BundleID,
    myApp.xcent is the file will be generate to you
5) Finally you can see the .xcent which make me nearly crazy for a week!!!!!!!!
6) Use this .xcent file to run that codesign script (Step 4 above)
7) Congratulation the codesign changed and you can zip your app and upload it
I have spent many hours for this simple stuff.........so sad........>.<
Hope this post can help all guys who still mad on this error when trying to upload a iPad only apps.
Good luck!!

I think I followed everything very closely, but I am getting these errors when trying to run the codesign script
here is my script command:
/usr/bin/codesign -f -s "iPhone Distribution: Nethercottage Games, LLC" "--resource-rules=/Users/BATC/Desktop/book1.app/ResourceRules.plist" --entitlements "/Users/BATC/Desktop/book1.xcent" "/Users/BATC/Desktop/book1.app"
Here is the error I get:
/Users/BATC/Desktop/book1.app: replacing invalid existing signature
codesign_allocate: object: /Users/BATC/Desktop/book1.app/book1 malformed object (unknown load command 9)
/Users/BATC/Desktop/book1.app: object file format invalid or unsuitable
Any help on this please?

Success!!!
I had to grant this permissions:
call dbms_java.grant_permission( 'WS_TEST', 'SYS:java.lang.RuntimePermission', 'getClassLoader', '' );
call dbms_java.grant_permission( 'WS_TEST', 'SYS:java.lang.RuntimePermission', 'accessClassInPackage.sun.util.calendar', '' );
call dbms_java.grant_permission( 'WS_TEST', 'SYS:java.lang.RuntimePermission', 'setFactory', '' )
call dbms_java.grant_permission( 'WS_TEST', 'SYS:java.util.PropertyPermission', 'HTTPClient.socket.idleTimeout', 'write' );
call dbms_java.grant_permission( 'WS_TEST', 'SYS:java.net.SocketPermission', 'localhost', 'resolve' );
call dbms_java.grant_permission( 'WS_TEST', 'SYS:java.net.SocketPermission', '127.0.0.1:8084', 'connect,resolve' );
As I wrote earlier, WS_TEST is my user into which I load JAX-RPC client. Note that, if you load JAX-RPC client into user another than SYS, you have NOT to use -s -grant public option (wassam wrote about this too). Another thing is that I (finally) didn't load OC4J. To consume WebService I use utl_dbws.invoke(call_Handle CALL, request SYS.XMLTYPE) function.
