Moved out of the US, reluctant to start a new account

I've been an Adobe customer since there was an Adobe. I worked in a corporate art department in the States and we were all over Adobe products and services from the beginning.
I've since left that job and moved to the UK as a freelance. I just went to upgrade my Photoshop before the deadline...and the sign in won't let me change my country. I could start a new account, but I feel bad walking away from my old account and 20+ years of customer relationship.
Am I just being silly? I mean, I don't suppose they hand out gold stars, but I don't really want a whole new account and I'd at least like to use my same old email address (which hasn't changed). Is this something somebody behind the scenes can fix? If not, are there any complications that will arise from my upgraded products being registered to a different account than the original? Thanks for any help...

Many online storefronts will detect a customer's location by IP address, and will then place limits on the payment options (e.g. if you say you're in the USA you can't pay with a UK bank account). Software is subject to UK VAT, so buying it remotely from the US site and not subsequently paying the duty on 'import' is a crime.
Having said that, if someone is temporarily abroad but retains citizenship of their home nation (along with tax and bank accounts) they can declare the purchase domestically and buy using their US bank or credit card details, just as if they flew back home and walked into a store. A US customer who purchases software in the USA is perfectly entitled to use it anywhere in the world they happen to travel, but they can't directly-declare the purchase as an expense against their UK tax return as it was never 'imported'.

  • Out of the blue my cpu started heating...

    out of the blue my cpu started getting hot. i noticed the wine of the fans picking up speed. and then theyd die down. so i watched my temp stat widget and sure enough the cpu keep getting hot then the fans cool it down then like three min later they pick back up oz its gettin hot again. and i only have this one safari window open. is this something wrong on with it. or have i been hacked coz i know my old pc did that when id have ppl hacked into me.

    Monitor your CPU usage in your Activity Monitor and see if there are any apps or processes using a lot of CPU power. If Spotlight is indexing, fans will rev up.

  • I want to get off the plan start a new account but can't contact account owner

    Hi,
    My brother and I have been on the "NATIONWIDE TLK&TXT SHARE 700" plan and the account owner is a friend of our family.
    I have almost fulfilled my two year contract (it will be over in about 1 month) and we would like to upgrade to a new Iphone and put my name as the account owner (none of us had enough credit by the time we got these phones from Verizon, but now we are able to pay our bills and would like to be responsible and keep privacy).
    I've noticed that in order to accomplish AoL, curruent account owner needs to call Verizon and authorizes the account transfer, but the problem is, I haven't been able to contact her for a month(she won't answer the phone and no call back has been received...).
    So I was thinking I should just give up keeping my number and start a new contract and a plan with my brother.
    My question is, as just an account member (not owner or manger), can my brother and I get off the plan without owner's permission? She and I are not on the same plan and she actually gave me some kind of password so that I could manage some stuffs with customer service. I was actually able to cancel my mother's line from the family plan one year ago with that password , but I wonder if I could do the same thing with both my brother's and my lines without owner's permission.
    If I can do that, is there any way to keep my numbers when starting a new account without having current account owner involved since I can't reach her? 
    If I start a new account and a plan with my brother and get the phone with 2-year-contract, rather than just upgrading to an iphone (while keeping my number under the current account owner like now), how much money will I be losing? Would it be a lot?

You should call *611 or go into a Verizon store to find out.

    If you start a new Family Plan with 2 lines instead of remaining part of a Family Plan with 3(or more) lines, you could end up paying more. Not knowing what your arrangement is, though, we cannot begin to tell you how much more you would be paying.
    For example:
    700 minute Family Plan with unlimited texting for 2 lines would be $99.98/month + tax for a total of ~$50/person.
    700 minute Family Plan with unlimited texting for 3 lines would be $109.97/month + tax for a total of $37/person.
    Any add ons such as insurance, data, etc... would of course be extra. You may also have to pay a security deposit in addition if you do not have much of a credit history.

I am getting so angry woth apple things, the make it sound better than it is and over pice it, i paid over a grand for my imac and it dont even come with a cd SLOT. Please can some one help!

    Edge has very clear restrictions, one being that you must have 6 months of clean payment history which you don't. Either wait until April 14, or good luck at Sprint.
    I am unsure how it can be determined the payment mix up was the fault of CS, but regardless, the mix up was done. There can be any number of reasons why a payment could be missed without any fault on your part, however you are still the responsible party for the account and must live with the repercussions.

  • I'm having problem with text boxes.  Whenever i hit the enter button to start a new line or paragraph, the cursor doesn't drop down to the next line.  Instead i get this little red + sign in the box.

    You are absolutely right.  Thought Enter meant Enter.  I was wrong.  Thank you for the help.

  • When pulling down a long pulldown menu, the menu, instead of starting a new row, will extend past the bottom and behind the browser so that I can't navigate to an item that's below/behind the screen.

    When pulling down a long pulldown menu, the menu, instead of starting a new row, will extend past the bottom and behind the browser so that I can't navigate to an item that's below/behind the screen. FF should be making a second row for these long pulldown menus, right?

    Nope, there is no second row. There should be a scroll arrow "button" at the bottom and the top of that drop-down to allow you scroll, or you can use the scroll wheel on the mouse scroll further down (or back up).

  • I had to start a new account and I don't know why? Do you mr/ms Moderator?

    I have had an account here for a good while. I have had the username "JackdaShack" and a number of moderators have helped me in the past.  For some reason this time loggin in it would not accept my username and passoword. I finally had to start a new account.
    I am not a happy camper. While it's not the end of the world I had a history. I had earned credits and had saved the links to a lot of questions anwered that I could refer back to in my profile
    Can anyone help me if I give the username and password I had been using? I'd like to get that history back.  I can give you the old email I used to sign in with. Now that email account was recently dropped but I don't think that has any connection with signing in as a username. That can be a nickname or an email address. Let me know if I have to give this info privately before I publish it openly. I'd really like to get that account back, the username and the history I had.
    Thanks so much!  jack  JackdaShack

  • Account Hacked/Can't verify - START A NEW ACCOUNT?

    So, my account was hacked. I fixed it. Now, because I can't *remember my skype join date*, your customer service is telling me to *start a new account*. In the interim, my uncle in Germany is sick and I am paying through the nose on my phone to call because your offshored customer service was dropped on its head as a child and is non-functional. All because I can't remember the MONTH I joined Skype. Are you *kidding* me? Tell me there's a better way. Tell me you can do better. Tell me I don't need to start a new account. Tell me you're not going to punish the victim of a hack. Tell me how you're going to get me my $6.86 credit back. Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies. Marisa

    Going throught this same bull**bleep**. The skype support is a joke. I keep failing my verification form as well and I've answered all the question 100% correct.
