My Mac with Adobe XI Pro is dead and I cannot access the machine.

I had a Mac with Adobe XI pro installed but the Mac has now died and I have no access to the machine any longer. However, I have now bought and windows machine instead and installed Adobe XI pro on it by the product key does not work. Do I really have to buy the whole thing again, surely not? Thanks, 

Certainly you cannot take a Windows license to Mac or a Mac license to Windows. However, Adobe have something called a "crossgrade". You cannot buy this in normal stores or web pages, you have to talk to customer service.

    Hi bodegakc,
    If you have the serial number then please use the below mentioned link to download the product you are looking for .
    CS5.5
    Also before installing Please go to Applications-->Utilities--> Adobe installers and if there is any uninstaller for CS5.5 , you can remove it and do a fresh install.
    You can also use creative cloud cleaner tool before installing.
    Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    Thanks

    have a problem with my MacBook Pro.5,3 and monitor.  Intermittently, the desk top screen becomes broken up into vertical sections, which appear in the wrong order, creating a haphazard picture.
    The Apple icon, usually at top left corner, appears in top right corner  in a strip including all that left hand.  When the computer is restarted, the screen goes back to normal.  But I have to move the mouse to the far left of the screen and then up until it reappears on the far right hand side of the screen so that I can hit shut down button.
    It seems to happen randomly though always on desk top and sometimes when I move mouse and computer switches on from rest mode.   My large flat screen is relatively new.
    The video card on this computer, which is approximately two years old, is Nvidia FeForce 9400M.
    Any help would be welcome as my usual source of assistance is not available and I am not well versed in workings of the Mac although I have used one for many years.

    That sounds like a Hardware problem.
    You may be able to confirm that with Apple Hardware Test, or make an appointmenst for a free Genius Bar evaluation.

  • I cannot retrieve the password for the wifi connection on my imac and so cannot access the internet with my ipad at home.  I have a cable modem. Help please!

    I cannot retrieve the password for the wifi connection on my imac and so cannot access the internet with my ipad at home.  I have a cable modem. Help please!

    If you mean that you cannot remember the password for your WiFi network this will work for you - or it should work if you are the administrator on the Mac.
    You will need to be logged in as the administrator on your Mac and you must know the password - Open Keychain Access on your Mac in the utilities folder, click on Passwords. Find the Airport Network Password listed on the right. Double click on it. Click on show password in the the window that pops up. Enter your administrator password when prompted and click allow.
    If Keychain is locked - you must enter the administrator password there as well to unlock it and access the password.
    If you have set the Mac up for Internet Sharing for the iPad to share the Mac's connection, just create a new network On the Mac with Internet sharing and a new password.

  • My MacBook Pro is not recognizing my external hard drive.  The hard drive is listed in disk utilities but an icon does not pop up and I cannot access the data.  Is there any way to resolve this?

    WE know Disk Warrior is more reliable, hence more useful, and should be in any disk mechanics toolchest.
    For the record, I don't know anything of the kind. I have yet to see evidence that Disk Warrior is useful at all.
    What I do know is that you seem to take every opportunity you get to promote it in these forums. Do you work for Alsoft?
    Let me be a little more explicit. My opinion is that Disk Warrior is a waste of money if one has backups. If a journaled HFS directory is so badly corrupted that it can't be repaired by Disk Utility, then the volume should be reformatted and restored from backup, which has the same effect as running DW, but is probably faster and doesn't cost $99.

  • Bought a MacBook Pro for granddaughter for college and she cannot access the app store to purchase apps needed for class. Always gets security questions that she did not set up and therefore she is denied access. But it does show her redeemable balance.

    I bought a 13" MacBook Pro for our college bound granddaughter. She cannot access the app store as she
    gets security questions to answer that she never set up, and of course it won't let her purchase anything. She has
    a redeemable balance, but can't get past the security questions and can't seem to find another way to circumvent this.
    What can she do?

    If she has trouble with the first advisor, she can always ask to speak to a senior advisor. However, AppleCare isn't really needed in cases like this, as the iTunes Store is quite familiar with accounts of this nature, and it's more of their speciality. Your daughter may want to contact them next time, but it's only email support at the moment (soon to change).

  • Is it possible to load an instructional DVD with several chapters onto my iMac and then somehow access the different chapters as needed remotely on my iPad?

    Is it possible to load an instructional DVD with several separate chapters onto my iMac and then somehow access the different chapters as needed remotely on my iPad?

    The "TDMS Open" node does more than open a file handle, it will load meta data (including file/group/channels' properties) and create index structures in ram for fast accessing any raw data in TDMS file. Thus, my advice is:
    1) You can save the efforts to write sub-VIs to preload properties of a TDMS file at least, since they are already kept in memory after the file is opened.
    2) Since index structures are presented, the performance to read data of any part in a tdms file will not be affected by the file size and the read performance might already satisfy your application. You can have a try.

  • I tried to put a copy of windows xp on a dos partition on my mac pro and now cannot access the hard drive with the latest maverics on it

    I tried to put a copy of windows xp on a dos partition on my harddrive partitioned for mac pro os x maveriks 10.9.3 but with a dos partition fat32 for the windows; but when I tried to reboot I cannot now access the hard drive.  Sometimes I get a white page with a question mark and sometimes I get a black screen with a blinking curser at the top.  I have a backup mac with lion which I am now using to comunicate.

    Windows XP has a notorious reputation for crapping on multiple partition boot blocks, including in your case, OS X.
    There are three options.
    Boot into Recovery (Press and hold command+R at boot)Choices
    Restore from Time Machine backup
    Retrieve and install current version of OS X from Apple Servers
    Boot into Internet Recovery (Press and hold option+command+R at boot)
    Requires Mac that shipped with OS X Lion or later
    Retrieves and installs original version of OS X that shipped with the machine
    Must update to Mavericks again
    Restore user data from Time Machine
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar appointmentSee if Apple will reinstall OS X Mavericks for you
    When you resurrect your machine, follow Eric Root's advice about Boot Camp, or a Virtual Machine. Boot Camp v5.1 on Mavericks no longer supports Windows XP, Vista, or Enterprise versions of Windows 7 or 8.

  • Does the 13 inch macbook pro, retina display, 256 GB HD, 16 MB Memory, Intel Iris Graphics work with Adobe Premiere Pro CC?  I'm worried about the Intel Iris Graphics

  • Apparently, I downloaded "Kindle for Mac, Twice. It appears in preview and desktop. cannot access nor register.Please advise?

    Apprently, I downloaded "Kindle for Mac" twice. It appears on my Desktop and Preview. Cannot access not register it
    Please advise?

    Yes, I didn't think it was very good either!
    You are correct in I should have said "Repair Disk" - Verify Permissions is not available on the maxtor drive ( it is dimmed) in Repair Disk.
    Until now, the drive has worked perfectly, and I did not install any of Maxtors software when I originally connected the drive to this system, I just formatted it as a Mac Extended and it worked great. It was only after the fresh Erase & Install - even then it worked fine. It was only when I created a new account that the problem started.
    What I have done is get hold of a demo version of a program called "Mac Drive 6" which allows you to read any Mac formatted disk or drive on a Windows system, - fortunately i still have my Windows XP Pro system which I have also connected to my home network.
    So for the next four days (the length of the demo) I can access all of my files on the disk and copy them to my Windows system.
    This is really great because I have all my data and images back which were my biggest concern.
    I thought I might get another drive anyhow, and when I have everything backed up on a new drive and on the Windows system, I can then reformat the Maxtor drive and start afresh with it.
    Thanks for all your help anyhow.

  • I am receiving the 'Could not sign you in [Access denied: 530]. Check your user name and password' problem on Adobe Muse CC 2014 and I cannot access the xml file that is supposed to fix this issue?

    I am a PC user and I have Adobe Creative Cloud Muse 2014. I have received the 'Could not sign you in [Access denied: 530]. Check your user name and password' error when trying to upload my muse site to my ftp host, GoDaddy. I have successfully done this in the past and only recently it has stopped working. I looked online at the FAQ Adobe Muse Help | Uploading an Adobe Muse Site to a third-party hosting service and it said to download the ftpprefs.xml file but this file simply leads to a blank page that says /*Not found*//*Not found*/.
    Can someone direct me to a working page with this file or provide a different solution? Thank you!

    Hello,
    As you are getting error [Access denied: 530] it means issue is with access. Either the username and password you are entering is incorrect or you do not have proper permissions.
    I would suggest you to contact Godaddy to either reset password or reset the permissions.
    Regards

  • When working on my ipad with pages and numbers, I have experienced it freezing up and i cannot access the files?

    When I am using Pages or Numbers app on my ipad it has frozen up?  I cannot edit, open any of the files.  Then later I can which is what I am hoping with the document I just produced?  Is it because it goes to the cloud? 

    This happens to me once in a while using Pages, but the "freeze" is very brief and I can usually just wait a short period of time and then the documents are accessible again. I have no idea what causes it, but it may be due to the fact that a file is being uploaded to iCloud as you suggest, but I don't know that for sure.
    Sometimes I close Pages from the task bar (double tap the home button and tap and hold down on the Pages icon until it wiggles then tap the minus sign to close it, then tap the screen above the tsak bar.) And when I launch Pages again, it is back to normal.
