New Windows computer purchase- designed for Photoshop

What should I look for in a windows computer to run Photoshop in the most harmonious way?

I think it depends on your needs as to what will be optimal.
No to PS being very well threaded at all.
So GHz rule. So do SSDs! and RAM helps as long as you work with large files.
3 x 8GB is fine. Apple never lists the max RAM or drive capacity.
$200 BTO for 5870 now rather than later.
Hitachi, OWC SSD, WD.

Even the 4-core 3.2GHz might do just fine and better $$ investment.
Or this 3.33 2009 Special

Hello hallefrompa,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
The following article provides an answer to your question:

iPod shuffle and iPhone are intended for use with a single computer. You cannot load music from multiple computers or iTunes libraries onto iPod shuffle and iPhone like you can with other devices.
You'll need to setup your iPod to sync to this new iTunes library:

I recently had to get a new windows computer, old one crashed. My tech guy got all my itunes library over to the new one, and all my songs are there. However, some won't play and ask me for the password for the apple id they were purchased under. 2 of these ids are obsolete and I have no access to those accts. The songs all played on my old computer without prompting me for a password.
Any ideas how I can get around this hassle and get them all to play? We're talking about 800 songs that are being obstinate. The new computer is authorized under my "new" Apple id, which I have used for years.

HT5085 purchased music on new windows computer

cannot find pervious purchased music on new windows computer. Logged in, purchased, all albums --- nothing

You are looking in the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage, and do the artists that you've bought music from show on the left-hand side of that screen ? If you've changed countries since buying the music, or if the rights-holder has removed the music from the store, then you won't be able to redownload it - it also won't show if it's hidden : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases.
Or if you go into the Store tab in Edit > Preferences and click on 'show iTunes in the Cloud purchases' do they then show in the Music part of your iTunes library with a cloud icon against them for redownloading ?

Bought a new windows computer and older and newer versions of photoshop have extremely small icons/font/tools...etc., making it almost unusable. Any suggestions? Or, do I take my new computer back?

That's Adobe for you!
No matter how much we request, beg and/or complain, nothing is done about the miserably small interface.
We're still left with the three inadequate choices in preferences:
Other than that, you can change your monitor's resolution.

What instructions?

You don't import photos from the iPhone to your computer using iTunes.
See this -> iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
Note this only applies to photos taken with the iPhone. Any photos you previously added to your iPhone using iTunes should be copied from old computer to new computer.

How do i move ipod nano content to a new Windows computer? My old computer died and when i try to sync to itunes on my new Windows computer, it says it will erase what's on the ipod. I can't seem to de-authorize the old computer (it's been recycled).

Hi, I'm an ipod newbie, and unsure of what product i have-i believe it's an ipod nano, but can't seem to find any info on itunes that will identify my product.
how do i move ipod nano music to a new Windows 7 computer? My old computer died and when i try to sync to itunes on my new Windows computer, it says it will erase what's on the ipod. I can't seem to de-authorize the old computer (it's been recycled). Does this mean I have to start all over and read in my CD's into itunes? seems very inflexible/inelegant...
thanks for your help, sorry if this question has already been answered before!

Is there no ANSWER TO THIS PROBLEM?

I have an old Ipod and am trying to sync the music from it onto my new (Windows) Computer. When it links us it says it must remove and sync the music. Does this mean I will lose the music from my ipod forever?

Yes, that is exactly what it means.
The right way to do it is to first rebuild your library on the new computer, and then sync the iPod.
You can rebuild your library by copying the library from the old computer or from your backup.
If neither of those options is available, you can extract the songs from the iPod, although the process is a bit hairy. See this guide for the procedure, written by Forum member Steve/turingtest2.

Moving Photoshop CS 5 to a new windows computer

I have a new 64 bit Windows computer. I need to 'copy' my current version of Photoshop CS5 from my 32 bit Windows computer to my new system. How do I do this. My copy of Photoshop CS5 was an upgrade from CS4 and I do not have a disk. I also have Photoshop CS5 installed on my 64 bit laptop and I don't want to remove that copy.
I understand that I must de-activate the 32 bit version but I'm not sure how to do that?
Thank you,
J.

You can't "copy" a Photoshop installation. It will never work properly. It must be installed on the new system.
Just download the (large) Photoshop installer package directly from Adobe.com, or copy it from your other computer. All you'll need is a valid, legitimate serial number, and a valid serial number from CS4 as well as it was an upgrade (you've been through the process before).
I advise you burn a disc of your own containing the installer at some point, because it won't continue to be available from Adobe.com forever.
In order to have the maximum of two activations, you'll need to deactivate the copy on your 32 bit system. To do that, just open the app on your 32 bit system and choose Help - Deactivate. Follow the prompts.
Once you've got Photoshop installed on the new system, remember to go through its updates. The installer Adobe provides still is at the 12.0.0 level I believe.
I'm not sure whether you're asking about "copying" any of your settings or stored files (e.g., Camera Raw developing settings for various raw files) from your old system.

I got a new second computer , can I download photoshop and lightroom on the one contract for $9.99

Can I download PS on the $9.99 program on more than one computer, as I have bought a second computer and want to work off both?

The $9.99 promotion license allows to separate computer activations for Photoshop and Lightroom CC. You may install the software on a second computer. In fact, you may install Photoshop and Lightroom CC in as may computers as you like. If you wan to use a third or fourth computer which have this software installed when you sign in your Creative Cloud account you will have to sign out from the other computer devices.

Migrate iPhone (iTunes) to new Windows computer

I apologize for asking a question that seems likely to have been answered multiple times, but the answers I found either seemed to be missing pieces for my scenario or in some cases to contradict (very likely my misunderstanding).
I need to set up itunes on a new (Windows XP) computer for one of my users and set it to sync with their iphone, without losing any data, migrating all settings, all minimizing my need to know what they might or might not have done with their iPhone to date, and preferably without knowing their iTunes account information (though I can get that if I need it).
I do not need to be concerned about syncing contact and calendar information - these phones sync with Exchange/Outlook and I'll deal with that part later.
1. I will of course first install itunes on the new computer (set it not to auto-sync) and then use itunes on the old computer to back up the phone.
2. Next I think I should copy the itunes library to the new computer, just replacing the directory structure on the new computer with the copy from the old (same OS on both computers). (Or do I not need to do that if I have a backup?)
3. Then assuming the user may have purchased content from the store I believe I will need to authorize this computer in the Store, is that correct? Will I need the user's account information to do that?
4. Should I next copy my backup into the correct location for backups on this computer and restore from backup so that settings are restored? Or since I have this backup, do I need to do all the above steps or are some of them unnecessary? (If it may not always be necessary, but might sometimes be necessary depending what they've done, and assuming it can't hurt either way, then I should just do it - I'm not worried about doing extra steps, I'm worried about losing data.)
5. And now do I need to do a sync? (I would have thought the restore from backup would have taken care of that, but I saw instruction somewhere to do that after restoring from backup.)
Do I have the right steps, in the right order, and will that take care of everything or have I missed something? (As noted, I will take care of setting up the exchange account syncing after everything else is done - that's something I've done many times.)

Thanks!
Reporting back, I tried it and discovered that it really is as simple as copying the iTunes library to the new computer (at least in my case it was) - I did that, synced the phone on the new computer, and all was well. (I've heard so many horror stories that I really expected trouble, but had none at all.)

I have updated to a new windows computer, and after transfering itunes library via iphone, the app section of itunes is locked and I cannot access it. How can I fix this?

I have updated to a new windows 7 computer, and after transfering my itunes library via iphone, itunes has locked me out of the app section of my phone. I can not add or remove apps using itunes. Is there a way to fix this? I have authorized, deauthorized, restarted, rebooted, and reset both my computer and iphone. Anyone got any ideas?? Thank you!

The safest way to do this would be to copy your itunes library to an external drive. For the purposes of this excersize the new Laptop would be the external drive
Here is the support article

Then you could erase the iPhone and resync it without losing any content.
If this option is not open to you then this article contains ways to get your content off your iPod
