Moving CS3 from iMac6,1 to iMac14,2

I have CS3 on a 24" iMac6,1 running OS 10.6.8. I purchased a new 27" iMac14,2 running 10.9.2. I used Time Machine to copy the entire content of the old iMac to the new iMac. When I tried to run Photoshop I was told that licensing had stopped working and that I needed to uninstall the old copy and reinstall.
I used the Adobe uninstaller and removed the copy of CS3 that Time Machine had moved to the new iMac. I then tried to reinstall from my original Photoshop 7.0 CDROM. But the VISE installer will not run on the new iMac14,2 because it is a PowerPC application and PowerPC applications are no longer supported on the new iMac.
I then went to the Adobe website and downloaded the CS3 installer. I went through the install process expecting to be prompted to insert my CDROM. But, no, the CS3 installer downloaded the CS3 Suite. Fine, I expected to be prompted for my serial number (which I have) when I started Photoshop for the first time. But, no, I just get the same message that licensing has stopped working and that I need to contact my administrator (me) or Adobe Support.
I cannot figure out how to contact a human being at Adobe who can help me fix this problem. I have a valid license for Photoshop on a working iMac6,1. How do I migrate my software to me new iMac??!???!?

your current os probably may not be compatible with ps cs3, but you can check other users experience - http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
if you still want to try installing, your best best is to uninstall, clean and then reinstall per Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

Moving Down from the Red Epic

Moving down from the Red Epic (65K) full kit to the Scarlet (to the Panasonic?) on down to the $4500 range, what are the best camcorders available in a progressive downward price range. Four or five models you think are a great value.
I personally like the older Panasonic cameras except for the scatterbrained format and in some models the faux 1920 x 1080 resolution. Suggestions welcome for other brands.
Thanks

Chuck, merry xmas.. I made this video for you and your better half just now...
Earlier today I went to store during beginning of snow storm ( before it got too bad to go anywhere in my old car ). I did some whacky driving in very slippery conditions ( rear end fishtailing a few times to keep my speed up and not get stuck and balancing that with being somewhat "safe" on the road ).
I did get stuck on the hill leading to my parking lot and had to do some backward and forward gentle moving to finally get unstuck and get into my spot... which is now my spot for the next 2 days probably... so I bought plenty of beers when I was out. Go Vikings! Go Giants !
This page ( a secret link ).. was hard to do cause I haven't done it in like 7 months or so..the video on my own server junk.
Basically I had to export the video from 1920x1080 to 720x405 as FLV from my mousey computer and CS3 ( I'm using mov 264 source to cineform avi in cs3 ). If I wanted to have higher res for faster bandwidths I'd have to put links on the webpage to those other options more or less... and to be honest, nothing is fast enough to do full HD without buffering a lot first... so I don't know if it's worth it. My personal feeling is that it's not worth it. Too many people would have to stop the video, wait for the buffer, and then restart.. and in the end the only decent play would be the 2nd one...after you already have it downloaded.
Anyway, this is my cougar sled which is now parked after an exciting ride to stores... and now it's YOUR turn to post something from your new camera that has me drooling. This camera is the olympus TG1 cheapo thing that is real good for bad weather and shooting " visual reminders " of stuff... like when you go scouting for locations etc..use this thing..is very good for that. Can take into rain, snow, drop it on ground, it doesn't mind...even underwater !

Moving Favorites from PC to Mac

Hello,
I'm moving favorites from IE 7 on Windows XP to Mac Leopard. Do I just move the files over and import or is there something specific regarding conversions I need to complete? Thanks.

Hi theBigD23,
Save your Favorites in IE 7 to the desktop (or wherever you want). Use a flash drive, email the file to yourself, or any method at your disposal to get that file over to the Mac.
In Safari, choose File > Import Bookmarks. Navigate to the bookmark file from the PC and click Import.

Why does the new operating system not delete the moved files from their original location - it seems like an enormous waste of space, time and effort to clean up every file once you've moved it

Why does the new operating system not delete the moved files from their original locations - it seems like an enormous waste of space, time and effort to clean up every file once you've moved it - also, when transferring large amounts of files it becomes a very large problem remembering which files were transferred and which not.

You're going to need to be more specific, as I'm not quite sure I understand what you're talking about.
If you're referring to copying from an external hard drive or flash drive, and you want to actually move files rather than copy them, you can hold down the option key to force it to do a "move" rather than a "copy." This is not new behavior, though... the Mac OS has worked this way as long as I can recall (and I've been using it since 1984).
If you're having a problem with trying to move files from one place to another on a single drive causing them to be copied instead, that is likely because of some permissions issue preventing you from actually being able to move them.

I am trying to reinstall Dreamweaver CS3 from the CD after having computer issues. Now getting error "You can only install one Adobe product at a time. Please complete the other installation before attempting to install ......." There is no other Adobe product installing. I have used the Adobe Cleaner Tool many times and uninstalled other Adobe Products but neither has worked. I have uninstalled/reinstalled this CD version of Dreamweaver several times when changing computers and after having computer issues. A google search of the problem suggested it may be an error related to the number of times I can reinstall this product due to licensing issues. Please help.

Absolutely not. You are misinterpreting things. The activation check never happens when just running the installer, only much later. It means what it says - there is another "install" pending/ active on your system, meaning somewhere there is an (invisible) process still blocking things. Either way, since you haven't provided any real technical info, we can't advise specifically. if you are on Windows, you may want to check your task manager and terminate any setup.exe and msiexec.exe processes plus potentially may need to manually fix/ delete some registry keys. For anything beyond that you will have to be much more specific.

Photoshop CS3 doesn't open or error occurs, when you Edit in Photoshop CS3 from Photoshop Lightroom 2

Problem: When you try to Edit in Photoshop CS3 from Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2, Photoshop CS3 doesn't open, or after Photoshop opens, you see the error message, "Photoshop could not be launched".
This issue is currently being investigated. At present, there are two possible areas that might be causing this issue. Corrupted metadata or a corrupted catalog, or Photoshop CS3 has not been updated to 10.0.1, or the update did not apply correctly to the application.
We are working for a permanent solution for this issue.
Workaround: Please refer to this Adobe
TechNote for further information.

How can I preserve the date and time of photos when moving them from iPhone to iPhoto and then to other folders on my computer?

In the past I’ve had no problem moving photos from my iPhone 4 into various folders on my computer while retaining their original date and time. I would import into iPhoto, then drag the photos from iPhoto into other folders via the Finder or Adobe Bridge (which is my principal image organizer). The original date and time of the photo would always travel with the jpeg into iPhoto and then into other folders. However, sometime during a recent session transferring photos in this way, the dates of the photos started to change at the point when I copied them out of iPhoto. Within iPhoto itself, the various original dates of the photos are retained. But in Finder and Bridge, copies of those same photos all carry the same (worthless) date: the date and time that they were imported from my iPhone. I can’t figure out what would have changed on my Mac to make it start re-dating my photos. I was happily dragging and dropping photos, and suddently I started to lose the original dates. Did I inadvertently change some settings? (I am running OS 10.6.8 and using iPhoto 8.)

(I use iPhoto only to import from my iPhone; I organize all my images, including thousands of RAW files, in folders on a big external drive.)
Why are you using iPhoto at all? use image capture or drag and drop the photos
The problem is that the files I am copying are getting stripped of the EXIF metadata
eliminating iPhoto from your work flow will eliminate one oppertunity to have this happen For photos in iPhoto it is best to export them rather than drag an drop them - this assures your EXIF and IPTC data is correct and uptodate
Why would I be able, over many years, to retain EXIF metadata in photos imported from an iPhone--then one day find that the same workflow strips such photos of EXIF data?
Because exporting is the supported way to "export" photos - I never drag and drop photos out of iPhoto and I never use thrid party programs on the photos in the iPhoto library - try exporting as suggested above and see if that is the solution

Process of moving TR from Quality to Production

Dear Experts,
we are in a process of moving TR from Quality to Production. While moving we faced transport incositencies like some old requests have been overwritten into the new one and dependant objects were failed during import in PRD. Now production rehearsal client is kind of messed up. what is the right procedure to transport the requests from Quality to Production. (actually we transferred the TR individually based on the list send by the respectivr module owners). Please help me to findout the solution for this issue.
regards,
Yasin.

Hi,
This situation comes every now & then when you don't have any client strategy define in your landscape I'm not blaming you but for your Project Manager and then rest of the team adopt SAP standard practice if you really want things to go well act NOW..!! here is the basic to start:
Ex,
DEV ::
100 => Golden Client
200 => Customizing Client
300 => Test Client
Things to check before importing request in QAS :
1) Always get the request in sequence format ask the owner of the request for the sequence to avoid dependency issues
2) Technical Specification doc - this doc will be prepare by Functional / Developer on what changes are included in TR
QAS::
400 => Quality Client
Things to check before importing request in PRD :
1) User acceptance doc i.e UAT - client / customer will check the functionality if it's on then move this to PRD
2) Get the request in sequence format
3) Approval for production transport
PRD::
500 => Production Client
Thanks,

Issue in moving files from data fodler to processed folder in background

Hi All,
I am facing one issue in moving files from data fodler to processed folder in case of background execution.
When i am executing the file in the foreground, i can move the file from Data folder to processed folder. I am using SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE FM to move the file from data folder to processed folder. I can see the file in processed folder once the program is executed.
But in case of executing the same program in background, it is giving me the error "Failed to move the file to processed folder" in the spool of SM37 and i can see the file still laying in data folder.
I tried to check other programs which acesses the same folder as the above program, whether they are able to move. They are able to move the file to processed fodler successfully both in foreground and background mode.
Please help me in resolving this issue.
Thanks,
Deepa

Hi Sanu,
Please use teh following code to move the file from source to target folder.
This is a code showing how to create and use COPY command of UNIX in ABAP
PARAMETERS:
Input file path
p_input TYPE localfile,
Processed file path
p_proc TYPE localfile.
Declare the Types to file data
TYPES: BEGIN OF L_X_OUTPUT,
sys(200), " Please note, there are asterisk before and after sys (i.e.sys)
END OF L_X_OUTPUT.
* Internal table to store file data
DATA l_i_output TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF l_x_output WITH HEADER LINE.
* Variable for the UNIX command
DATA: l_v_unix_comm(255) TYPE c.
Copy command of UNIX
CONCATENATE 'mv' p_input p_proc
INTO l_v_unix_comm SEPARATED BY space.
For example the Copy command is stored as below
cp u2018/data/interfaces/input/input_fileu2019 u2018/data/interfaces/processed/processed_fileu2019
Examples of UNIX Command *u2022 mv filename1 filename2 --- moves a file (i.e. gives it a different name, or moves it into a *different directory (see below) *u2022 cp filename1 filename2 --- copies a file
Execute the UNIX Copy command.
This command will copy the file from input file path to the processed file path
CALL 'SYSTEM' ID 'COMMAND' FIELD l_v_unix_comm
ID 'TAB'
FIELD l_i_output-sys.
IF sy-subrc eq 0.
write: 'File is copied successfully using UNIX command in ABAP'.

Moving images from one library to another; or how to have 2 libraries open at the same time in Aperture 2

This may be something easy but for some reason I am having a hard time figuring this out. Basically this is the situation: I have a library on my MBP hd that I import pictures to when I am not hooked up to my external hd for the time being. The main library is of course on the external 2tb drive. How do I have 2 libraries open so that I can essentially drag and drop the pictures from one library to another? It would basically be like moving files from one project to another. Thanks for any help!

Always keep a backup of your original images, before you delete them. I make a backup right form the card, before I even import them to Aperture.
How are your images stored right now? Are the referenced or managed? On your big volume I'd consolidate the newly imported images, to be sure they are really inside the Aperture library before I delete any images outside the library.
but they have the little yellow triangle caution symbol on them and I can see them but not really edit them
That is a very typical problem, when you imported your images as referenced images then somehow delete or move the original master image files, that are stored outside the Aperture library.
Do you still have the original masters of the images with the yellow triangle that you cannot edit? In Aperture 3 you can point Aperture to the location of the master image file "File >Locate referenced image" - probably Aperture 2 has a similar command to let you reconnect your masters, if you still have them. Look into the manual.
