Lightroom 4.2 Installation and launch help.

No success running Lr4.2. Downloaded and installed successfully dozens of times over the past 3 days, but never asks for serial number, and I do not have access to adjustment brush and graduated filter options including the auto mask feature. I had the trial version with photos imported and edited, but i have removed these from my computer, and re-installed the purchased Lr4.2, but i am still experiencing the same issue.
Been online chat and tried to reach Adobe by phone for 3 days with no luck. Minimum 50' wait each time! Can someone please tell me how I can simply download the software, install it, then actually launch and use it? I have downloaded and launched successfully every time, but then when I open it, i have many features not available to me. Also, i want to import photos from iPhoto library, but this isn't an option on my menu. How can I do that as well? Thank you.

No problem, we'll get you sorted out!  When you say you don't have access to the adjustment brush and other features, can you explain a bit more?  Or better still, do you know how to take a screenshot so we can see exactly what you mean?

  • Installation and Launch - Adobe Reader XI on Mac - No program window.

    I've installed and re-installed Adobe Reader XI on my computer, and ensured that it was the Mac client each time, however upon launching the application from my applications folder, it starts the program, but the program does nothing. It appears active in my task bar, but it has no windows, and whenever I go to check; Adobe Reader, File, Edit, View, Window, & Help. All actions are greyed out and I'm left unable to do anything. I've been unable to come across reports of similar problems, and I do meet the system requirements in order for the application to function.
    What do I do?

    What happens when you attempt to open a PDF file in Adobe Reader like the PDF file in your Downloads folder named "About Downloads.pdf"?    Just drag it on top of Adobe Reader and see what happens.

  • SAP-XI System Installation and Learning help

    Hi!!,
    I'm working as "ABAPer" from last 5 years. Recently I installed Miniwas 620(ABAP) from a CD I got through by SAP book purchase. I'm able to do a lot ABAP things in my system.
    Now I'm planning to Upgrade my knowledge to XI. I studied lot of material in SDN(thanks!! to all the contributors). I have fair knowledge of XI functionality and each component. Now I think I should be sitting in front of system to play around and learn. I thought of using my system. I have following queries on this.
    1. Does my system has XI components?. I'm able to get into
    XI based Easy access menu, but If i click on any node for example 'start integration builder' I get a message 'address not maintained'. I'm not sure How do I install or configure all the components. Can any one help in this.
    2. If I can not install in my system, what is the best way to learn XI.
    3. In real time projects, what is the role of a XI-consultant and XI-developer( I'm seeing two kind of certifications in SAP site ). I just wanted to know to analyze where do I fit in.
    4. Any good training around, Problem with SAP training is they do not have one course with full XI.
    5. Any idea how is SAP's Online-course material?, Is it read only or interactive?. how it looks like?. Is paying $500 for each course is worth or not?
    I really appreciates your Inputs on each of queries.
    Thanks!!
    Prit

    Nope, you do not have XI components. XI 3.0 runs on Web AS 6.40 ABAP + Java Stack. One more thing.. There is no sneak preview for XI and no free downloads.
    <i>2. If I can not install in my system, what is the best way to learn XI.</i>
    Through Training either from SAP or some third party companies.
    <i>3. In real time projects, what is the role of a XI-consultant and XI-developer( I'm seeing two kind of certifications in SAP site ). I just wanted to know to analyze where do I fit in.</i>
    The role of XI Developer is to get the requirements of Source and Target systems, creating the maps, developing BPM (Business Process Management) where needed, development of custom adapter modules etc.
    The Certifications are 1. Basis 2. XI Developer
    TBIT 40, 50 and 51 are for Basis and
    TBIT 40, 41, 42, 43, 44 are Developers
    <i>4. Any good training around, Problem with SAP training is they do not have one course with full XI.</i>
    Heard some third party people are giving training, some of our forum members may know about it and if you provide a contact mail id they might get in touch with you.
    <i>5. Any idea how is SAP's Online-course material?, Is it read only or interactive?. how it looks like?. Is paying $500 for each course is worth or not?</i>
    It is the price you pay to learn, if there are cheaper ways you can always explore.
    I tried to answer as much as I can, other forum members might come up with good suggestions.
    Good luck.

  • I am running windows 8.1 and I have purchased PS Elements 13 on DVD but Icannot install the Software, I get as far as 2% on the installation and I get an Exit Code 15 with ERROR; Media DB Error : 6

    I have also started my PC in safemode with Network enabled, as recommended by adobe, but to no avail! I just get to the 2% installation stage again, with the same error.
    I have checked all the system requirements, all is OK. I am not a techie, I just like photography! but it now seems to me that Adobe like making the simple installation of a software programs impossible for normal computer users, can any body help or offer a simple solution! or do I have to return my software to seller again!

    Hi Keith, sorry for my late reply.
    Surely I am able to connect to the help function when Icontact the website
    of AdobeLR5.The problem is as follows,
    When I open LR5 on my computer and work with it and try to open the help
    function in the software, I don't get it.
    When I bought the CD I was naiv enough to believe that I get an independent
    working software. I learned in the meantime, that the seller does not allow
    to work with, without being connected to them.
    I don't believe that I am paranoid, but I like to buy something and use it
    without to inform the supplier that I do it. Otherwise I could have bought
    the license fpr LR5 via internet.
    Best regards

    Could you please try to sign-out and in via the CC-app (preferences section) and afterwards restart Lr Desktop. A restart of CC-app alone would not solve your issue. Hope that helps. Guido

I thought if I were to completely uninstall and re install it might help, but I cannot seem to find instructions to do this....

    See [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]], the image shown in that article is the Windows equivalent of the error message that you are receiving, but the information relates to the Mac.

    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
    Identifying iPod models
    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.
    You also said: "It also will not let me download any music onto it." What happens when you try to sync music to the iPod?

    I see that the number in my Adobe Account is a MAC serial number – I purchased both the Mac and Windows versions of the program. I tried to enter the serial number of the Windows version into my account and it says it’s already registered. But when I installed the Windows version on a Windows computer I got the invalid serial number message. They have two different serial numbers! Can you help me with this?

  • I have Lightroom 1.4.1 and I just started shooting the Nikon D700.  I cannot get Lightroom to read my new raw files, help...

    I have Lightroom 1.4.1 and I just started shooting the Nikon D700.  I cannot get Lightroom to read my new raw files, help...  Is there a plug in or update I can get?  I can't afford new software after new camera and new lense!

    Lightroom 1.4.1 does not support native (NEF) files from the D700 because the camera didn't even exist when it was released. To get support you have two options: upgrade to Lr 2.x (paid for upgrade) or convert your NEF files to DNG.
    DNG converter 5.4 can be downloaded from http://www.adobe.com/downloads/ (see right hand side of page)

  • Oracle 10g standard edition installation and problems with logon (help pls)

    I installed 10g standard edition, however I got the following two messages during installation:
    1) The host IP address can not be determined
    2) Missing or Invalid password ...
    Eventhough I unlocked all the passwords during install (tiger/scott, sys, system, etc) I can not logon now with none of them ("invalid username/password: logon denied"). I also get "ORA-12170: TNS: Connect Timeout Occured" when trying to lgoon with my email addr and password used for installation.
    Please help, this is frustrating. Thx!
    P.S> Do I need to input anything in the "Host String" box ?

    Chances are
    1) you are using WIndows of some sort;
    2) your machine does not have a static IP address (you are using DHCP);
    3) you have not installed the loopback adapter, as desrcibed in the installation document.
    You may want to review the Oracle Database 10g (release whichever you are using) "Installation Guide" manual for your operating system again. I think you missed a step.
