Licensing questions CS4 from JPN

Hello,
I have a great opportunity to buy CS4 suite design standard from one guy in my home town. He is the 2nd owner of the suite and originally the package was bought in Japan. Can CS4 purchased in Japan be used in Europe for commercial uses? Or is Adobe license restricting the use in some way?
Thank you for reply.

There are no restrictions in terms of your stated concerns. However, you need to make sure of the following:
(1)     Both previous license owners no longer have any copies of the software installed on their systems.
(2)     Neither of the previous license owners used this CS4 software as the basis of updating to a newer version (i.e., CS5, CS5.5, or CS6) of an Adobe suite. If they did, the license for CS4 cannot be sold or otherwise transferred to others.
(3)     Both previous license owners have deactivated the software from their systems.
(4)     Assuming that one or another of these users registered the software, they must go to the Adobe website and fill out the paper work transferring the license to you.

  • Transferring CS4 from an old Mac to a new one, I get a notice saying "licensing for this product has stopped working" Error 150:30. Don't know what to do? Thanks.

    I'm trying to migrate my CS4 from my old Mac to my new one. When trying to open photoshop, i get a message saying "Licensing for this product has stopped working." And "Error: 150:30" I don't know what to do from here. Can someone help me? Thanks.

    "Migrating" and/or "transferring" an application is not just asking for trouble but demanding it!
    Always install an Adobe application from scratch, from the original media: CD or download.

  • Got an upgrade to cs4 from Elements.  Is Elements' license still valid?

    I'm waiting on shipment of an upsell of CS4 from Elements 6.
    In the meantime, I was wondering if the upgrade would render my Elements 6 license invalid, or if I can in fact use Elements as well (on the same computer).  I tried a search, and after a long wait did not find an answer to this, so I apologize if this has been beaten to death.
    Take care.

    "It's a monumentally dumbed-down, limited, emasculated, toy"
    "If you like Elements, it's quite possible that you will find the learning curve of Photoshop too daunting."
    I'm really at home with CS4 trial actually, I'm not concerned with the learning curve.
    From GIMP, the few seconds to locate the new menu items... Perspective clone/Vanishing point, Liquid Rescale/Content-aware scaling, iWarp/Liquefy, etc were made up for with a more workable interface for the most part.
    On the other hand, I can see me not wanting to invest much time in taking someone's ex-wife out of the beach photo, etc.  I'm thinking maybe Elements has its use.  It'd be nice.
    I’m an Elements ignoramus because it's simply a product I'd normally not bother with for image editting.  GIMP and PS are my only options, none of the midrange tools cut it.
    If it's a nice replacement for iPhoto on the Mac, and is more robust and can kick someone off a picture for me in a couple seconds, I could see it being of use.
    Anyway it's real nice to finally have Photoshop and nice to be here.

  • Error 150:30 after restoring CS4 from Time Machine backup

    I just got myself a new Imac with OS X Maverick and set it up using a time-machine-backup. My Adobe CS4 now has a Problem with the license and shows me error: 150:30?
    Do I need to uninstall CS4 and reinstall? Is there any easier solution to this problem?
    Thank you anyone for some help.
    chris

    Thanks a lot for your help......everything back to normal after reeinstallation.

    Do I need to uninstall CS4 and reinstall?
    Unfortunately yes.
    Also run the Cleaner Tool prior to reinstalling
    Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    Restoring from Time Machine backups invariably breaks the activation mechanism (Error 150:30) and there's no easy way to fix a 150:30 error other than via re-installing.

  • Transferring Old CS4 from my old Mac to my New Mac Error 6.

    I am trying to transfer my old CS4 from my old Mac to a new Mac which doesn't have a disc drive. I copied all the files to a memory stick and the pulled them from the stick into the application folder on my new Mac but the software will not start and say Licensing Error 6.
    It this the right way to transfer my old CS4 from my old Mac to the new one which doesn't have a disc drive? and if so what does Error 6 mean and how to I get that sorted so I can work with my CS4 on my new Mac?
    Also I would like to have PS and AI in my doc - I am so bad to computer stuff so please explain it all in very plain language. ( :
    Kind Regards
    D

    You can't do that. Download the most current version of PS CS4 for Mac from the Adobe download site and install it. Then you can copy over your preference file and any edits you have done in PS CS4 from the old Mac.
    But if this new Mac you have is running Mavericks or Yosemite CS4 might not work on those newer versions of OS X. Not sure, I gave up on Mac OS X about a year ago.

  • Lumira Server for BI Platform and Team/Edge consumption & licensing question

    Hi.  I have a few questions.
    Question 1:
    From my reading, I've heard that Lumira Edge/Team server may not be a part of BI-Suite License.  I read a Lumira Server ASUG Webcast recap by Tammy Powlas here (SAP Lumira Server for Teams Roadmap ASUG Webcast) over the weekend and one of the Q&A questions struck me:
    Q: Is this included with the BI Suite license from SAP?
    A: Lumira Server for Teams (Edge Edition) is not covered under BI Suite License. However, Lumira Server for BI Platform (RTC Planned in April) is covered under BI Suite licenses
    In a separate conversation late 2014, I thought I'd heard that Lumira Team/Edge server was supposed to be usable by BI Suite licensed customers, but it sounds like I'm mistaken?
    Question 2:
    Next, the second part of the statement gave me hope:
    However, Lumira Server for BI Platform (RTC Planned in April) is covered under BI Suite licenses
    I then looked at the Lumira Deployment Options for Departments Part 1 – ASUG Webcast by Tammy Powlas to get some more information on Lumira Server for BI Platform.  This slide gave me some hope (emphasis mine in green):
    But then I see some more information a little later:
    Is this slide to imply that the version without HANA (or HANA XS) for BI Platform will only really just serve as a user rights management and Lumira document repository?  And that if I want to view a Lumira document, I must still open from the Lumira Desktop client?
    It was suggested I start a new discussion thread to ask this licensing question about a product that's not out yet (but the slide says it's GA so I'm still confused) so here I am with my discussion thread!
    Hopefully someone can make me less confused.  I'm hoping the answer is as a BI-Suite customer that we do not have to make a decision to either invest in new Edge/Team licenses or buy HANA XS hardware to establish a beachhead of Lumira usage in our organization.  We've been struggling with promoting Lumira and the sharing piece has been the sore spot.

    Hi Michael
    You are right, it is confusing...
    I think it will be better to contact sales to get this explained as opposed to technical support people that monitor this SCN Space.

  • Opening projects in CS4 from earlier versions of Premiere

    I have various projects in Premiere 2.0. They work fine.
    I tried opening one in Premiere CS4. It mostly works, but I found a small hickup where a transition (cross disolve) is quite messed up. Otherwise, it seems the project is playing the same in CS4.
    My question is: how accurate is it to open projects in CS4 from an earlier version? I don't really want to have to go through every second of every project to make sure it works properly, yet I would like to upgrade to CS4.
    What's the normal protocol for this? I'm sure people deal with having to open projects from earlier version of Premiere all the time.

    Harm,
    Thanks for your answer -- it's helpful. I will follow your advice.
    What blows my mind is what the legions of editors out there do when they have to old up an old project? This must happen all the time!
    Do editors have to maintain two machines -- one with the old version of Premiere to open up their old project, and another machine to work on new projects? Oh, I guess they need one machine for each version they've ever created a Premiere project in. That's like 5 machines.
    Seriously, what to people do when they have to open up an old project for whatever reason? It's seems like if you open it up in the latest version of Premiere, you would have to go through every second of the project very carefully to make sure there are errors introduced -- way time consuming.

  • CS5 Student License Question

    Licensing question:
    In 2011, I purchased a student license to CS5 for my mac.  I have installed it on one laptop that I am the primary user of.  The laptop has two user logins, mine and my husbands.
    Can my husband use CS5 on the computer on an occassional basis (either through my username or his) and still be okay from a licensing point of view?  There are several questions that hint at this, but I can't find a clear answer.  I've read the EULA, but I'm still confused whether this is permissable or not.
    Thanks for any help.

    That's into the area of legal interpretation, but you don't need to overthink it. You may have purchased the license, but technically the activation is per computer, is it not? So one could simply assume that this is perfectly intended or at least within the freedom that the EULA provides... It's not like you're letting your neighbors use it for a buck an hour, or is it?

  • How do I prevent CS4 from crashing opon opening without having to delete Flexnet Publisher.

    When I open CS4, it crashes with out an error message box coming up.  The second attempt, it crashes with the message box saying, Error 150:30, Licensing for this product has stopped working.  I then have to go to the hard drive > library > application support > Flexnet publisher and delete it.  I then can open up CS4 and it stays open.  I have had to do this procedure for many months. I am using Mac OS.6.8.  Is there a way of preventing CS4 from crashing without having to go through this procedure?

    If it crashes, you would get a crash report dialog.
    It sounds like you either have a bad install, or a bad license.

  • Routed or bridged mode + licensing question

    Hi Cisco ACE gurus,
    I have the following questions and I would be grateful if anyone could answer them.
    1) As we know the basic license for ACE limits its throughput to 4Gbps. What does it mean? Does it mean that only load balanced traffic is limited (policed) to 4Gbps? Or any other traffic passing through ACE is limited to 4Gbps (from what I know ACE is a cef720 linecard having 20Gbps to a switch fabric)?
    My question comes from the following scenario. Let's say ACE is deployed in routed mode and it has 1 client vlan and 2 server vlans. There are VIPs, serverfarms, rservers defined etc.... Now there is a need for a rserver from vlan1 to communicate with a rserver from vlan2 (directly and not through a VIP). In this scenario def gateway of both servers points to ACE (ACE is doing inter-vlan routing).
    So in this case in order to allow for that communication I would need to create ACLs and apply them to ACE interfaces.
    Does it mean that the traffic would be limited to only 4Gbps?
    2) let's say I have 2 DC (2 different geo locations). ACE is located only in one of them. Real servers are dispersed in both of them. ACE is deployed in routed mode. Is it possible to configure ACE in such a scenario (to server VIPs for clients when rservers are in 2 different DC)?
    My assumption is that it is possible and in order to do that I would have to use NAT (and source NAT client traffic) so that traffic sent from client to a VIP could be src natted and go to the other DC (through client vlan), reach the rsevers in the other DC and come back.
    Is it possible to also do that while ACE is deployed in bridged mode?
    While reading about ACE and NAT I came across the sentence "ACE is not able to NAT bridged traffic". What does it mean?
    regards

    sorry Marko but I am lost. We are talking now about one-armed mode of deployment. There
    are 2 contexts and the same vlan is used in both of them (that's why it is shared). In this case I don' understand what you wrote "you have server A in the shared VLAN of context A, you can not reach a VIP from context B" ... that is the same vlan so I can't see any problems..... unless you are describing situation for bridged mode deployment of ACE.

  • Reinstalled CS4 from Time Machine

    Now I have an AMT Subsystem Failure. I have got a deadline looming tonight. Can anyone help me with this? It is an error 5

    If you have installed CS4  from Time Machine, you might face some licensing issues. So, best option for you is to uninstall the existing CS4 installation from Applications->Utilities->Adobe Installers folder and then install CS6 using the installer(dvd or download) that you have.
    In case you do not have the installer for CS4. You can check the below link but make sure first you follow the mentioned instructions properly.

  • BO XIR2 Licensing Question

    Was hoping if someone could help me out with a licensing question I have. I am trying to understand how BO licensing works.
    I think it would be easier if I asked the question through an example.
    The scenario is a situation where we have a standard BO XIR2 enterprise installation with an app server, db server and web server.
    1. The app server is a normal BO XIR2 installation
    2. The web server is also as from a BO XIR2 installation.
    3. The db server runs the data store and audit module is on in the db.
    4. The following report types are to be used by the end user
        4a. Crystal Reports
        4b. Web Intelligent reports (View, drill down etc)
        4c. Desktop Intelligence report (View, drill down etc)
    5. The development box is the same setup in which the 10 developers should have access to have access to these build the universes, crystal, webi and deski reports.
    6. The prod environment will be used by 50 users who should be able to access webi crystal and deski reports.
    7. These users should also be able to create custom webi reports
    Since the licensing for BO is a bit different, can someone please help understand all the different types of licenses required for this setup?

    BO licensing is pretty straight forward, but you should speak to a sales rep for particulars. Generally from the server we have 3 types CPU (in which case everything you stated would be supported), Named Users (in which case you would need 1 per user logging in) and concurrent users (which would require enough licenses to support the maximum of concurrently logged on users).
    The slow response is likely due to the US thanksgiving holiday, I'm sure more folks will be back next week.
    Regards,
