OEM Software....Is this Legal

I want to purchase DreamWeaver8 to do a Web site for a
non-profit agency. I want to make sure that the software I buy is
legal. I will not be charging the non-profit agency for developing
their site. I found a place on-line called ClubMx.com that offers
OEM DreamWeaver8 for a very low price. I'm sure it is too good to
be true. Is it legal to sell OEM software?

It's a case of too good to be true, don't do it.

OEM software lost after fresh install?

First of all - thanks to the whole community for the help I've gotten by simply browsing these forums.
Now, to my problem: My Powerbook had 10.3 installed when I got it, including OEM software like Omni Outliner and some image viewer I can't remember the name of(*), both of which I loved.
(* edit: I think GraphicConverter, but am not sure where I got it from)
Two weeks ago my hard drive gave up, and I now have a new one installed. I then installed 10.4. Now I'd love to get the Outliner and the other apps back, but am clueless as to where I could get them from.
Thanks for the help,
Petri

Thanks for the pointer; I found the versions of iMovie and iPhoto that came with the PB with this method. The other programs I was looking for are still nowhere to be found, but I've decided my time is worth something and bought new licences for the ones I really used.

Oem software updates and upgrades

Hello,
I currently have the existing cyberlink software pre-installed on my new computer power2go5 version 5.6.0.10525 ,photo director 3 le 3.01.4107 and powerdirector 10 le 10.0.0.0.2810 and powerdvd 10 10.0.05.1085
As usual cyberlink company is saying that for updates you will have to contact Lenovo and lenovo tells you to contact cyberlink pass the buck.
Since these are oem version which is specifically design for your computer can someone answer the following guestions:
1. Does lenovo have any upgrades for these software if is so where can I get them?
2. Does lenovo have any updates for these software if so where can I get them?
3. If I decide to purchase the full version of the programs can lenovo guarantee me that the programs will be fully functional .on my g500 computer.
Thanks

Hey Fishermanjack,
Welcome to the lenovo forums,
No not all Lenovo OEM software will be compatible with your G500 and lenovo can not garuntee that they will be functional on your G500 besides the software pre-installed on your G500
hope this helps

OEM software discount stores

Anyone an idea if http://www.applessales.com/ is a scam site. Great prizes for OEM software response on questions by support but not a convincing website

And you don't get a physical disk or anything. (2.1 Download only.)
     2.1 All software products that we sell are downloadable only
     2.5 Software cannot be registered on-line due to certain limitations;
     2.6 You will not be able to receive any printed license confirmation;
And as John mentioned, they tried to make their site look like Apple's, and the have a prominent " Premium Reseller" logo, but they don't put Apple in their vendor list! (Well, you have to click the link that says "Toggle all vendors.) But they only see 4 pieces of Apple software and they can be a " Premium Reseller"?
They appear to be based somewhere in Prague. (At least the servers are there.) None of this is giving me any confidence. Run away now. Run away fast.

TS1717 Started a software update this morning which didn't work. Now Itunes will not open at all. I get the following message."The program can't state becasue MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer."

Started a Itunes software update this morning which didn't work. Now Itunes will not open at all. I get the following message."The program can't state becasue MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer."

There are a couple of options that I know of to fix the issue.
One is listed in this thread - https://discussions.apple.com/message/24606478#24606478 - and involves uninstalling iTunes and related components and then re-installing iTunes. You will need to read the instructions in the thread to see the correct uninstall order.
Second option is use System Restore to set your system back to a date prior to the iTunes update. I did this before finding the thread mentioned above.
Not sure exactly what the problem is but I know, after a search, that MSVCR80.dll was indeed already installed on my computer.

Hey erinoneill24,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Sounds like you can't update your device. You don't mention an error that it gives you. Take a look at both of these articles to troubleshoot.
iPod displays "Use iTunes to restore" message
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1441?viewlocale=it_it
If you can't update or restore your iOS device
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808?viewlocale=de_DE_1
If you started your device in recovery mode by mistake, restart it to exit recovery mode. Or you can just wait—after 15 minutes the device will exit recovery mode by itself.
Have a nice day,
Mario

Cannot restore my iPod touch 3g "Software for this iPhone is not currently"

Hello,
II have a big problem, I cannot restore my iPod touch.
I cannot get anything to show on the screen, it seems stuck in DFU mode. When I connect it to my pc, iTunes show this message "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes".
"Check for update" is grayed. Capacity/serial/Software show N/A.
iTunes detects it as an iPhone but it's an iPod touch.
I tried 2 different computers.
I tried to download firmware and shift restore them, tried many, none work, telling it is not compatible.
When I click restore simply, it show this message "Software for this iPhone is not currently available".
I tried different ipod cable too, no luck.
The only way I can see something on the screen is with greenpoison (note that before this, I never tried nor wanted to jailbreak, but I tried a lot of things since 2 days including this, but no luck), so with green poison, I can get the iTunes + cable logo on the screen, but it won't restore either.
my iPod is just 1 year old, and 32gb, I'm rly frustrated and sad about all this :S, I tried lot of things, searched a lot, nothing work.
This happened when I came back from the gym, in my car, the iPod would not turn on, I tried again at home, and after some home/power, it turned on, I took a shower and when I came back, it was the same problem but since, it never turned on again.
Any help would be rly appreciated, thanks.

If its stuck in DFU mode, just hold the Power/Sleep button and the Home button until the device resets. If your unable to access the springboard, you might need to RECOVER your iPod Touch using the Recovery method, not DFU mode.
Here are few links you should check out:

The iPhone and iPod Touch is very similar, except the iPod Touch doesn't have phone capabilities.

If you never Jailbroken, then why is greenpois0n installed? Did you buy this from a previous owner?

Hi, stig2013.
I would recommend the steps in the article below. See the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
If you are receiving an error message, find the exact error number that you recieved in the article below and process the steps.
iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if you manually disconnect the device during the restore process. You can resolve this issue by using USB troubleshooting, using a different Dock Connector or Lightning Connector to USB cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.
Cheers,

I used a GarageBand loop in a video I made for youtube. I want to submit this video for revenue. First, is this legal? Second, youtube requires written permission to use songs, and provides a comment box for proof of permission. What do I put in this box?

I used a GarageBand loop in a video I made for youtube. I want to submit this video for revenue. First, is this legal? Second, youtube requires written permission to use songs, and provides a comment box for proof of permission. What do I put in this box to prove It's ok for me to make ad revenue from my video?

Yes, you can use GarageBand loops for commercial purposes. Here's the Apple Doc:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2931
(Basically the only thing it excludes is to re-distribute the loops as loops.)
I don't know about the YouTube form, maybe you just fill in "Apple Loops", they certainly have come across this before.

" software for this i phone is not installed correctly. reinstall iTunes"

Hi guys
I managed to get iTunes to open but now I receive a warning message "software for this i phone is not installed correctly. reinstall iTunes", when connecting my iphone and ipad as well... reinstalling itunes does not solve the problem.
I tried removing the latest itunes from my registry and installing the previous version that worked, hence the problem persist.
I'm sure i'm not the only victim out there.
Pls guys, any advise on how do i fix this problem.
Thanx

Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

Installed 10.2.3 update Cannot install software on this disk, volume does

I recently bought an ibook and installed mac os x 10.2.2 which is the original software that shipped with this ibook. I am trying to update the 10.2.2 to 10.2.3 using a download off of apples website. When i try to install it, it runs as it should and when i get to the select destination portion I see my 40gb partitioned hdd with about 35gb total remaining.
It simply says, installing this software requires 196mb of space...You cannot install this software on this disk. This volume does not meet the requirements.
Any help would be appreciated.

Welcome To  Discussions txtexhox22!
In Your Other Topic, the discs you said You Purchased, are version 10.2.4, not 10.2.2.
If that is what you installed, you cannot not install a 10.2.3 update.
Quoted:
iBook OS X Software Install 10.2.4 (2 cd's) cd version 1.0
iBook Software Restore (3 cd's) cd version 1.3 (OS X 10.2.4 & 9.2.2)
When you run Software Update, what version updates are offered?
Perhaps if you download & install the 10.2.8 Combo Update, it will work.
Also run Repair Permissions before and after the installation.

Does my macbook air have a built in virus scan? how can I access and use it? also any recommendations of what software if this is not avail ?

does my macbook air have a built in virus scan? how can I access and use it? also any recommendations of what software if this is not avail ?

Contrary to what Geeks on Hugs is telling you, Mac OS X does indeed have a basic malware scanner. It is not a feature that is directly accessible to the user, and works a bit differently than every other malware scanner out there. Gatekeeper, which has been mentioned here, is entirely separate, and provides a different method for helping to protect you against malware.
The anti-malware scanner in Mac OS X is called XProtect. When you download an application (or any other kind of executable code), it is automatically "quarantined," so that when you open it you're asked if you really want to do that. I'm sure you're very familiar with this aspect of Mac OS X if you have ever downloaded any apps from outside the App Store. What you don't know, though, is that each time you try to open a new app, that app is checked by XProtect. If it is identified as malware, you will not be allowed to open it, and will be warned that it's malware.
At this time, there is no known malware that can infect a properly up-to-date Mac. All current malware will be blocked by one or more methods.
For more information, see my Mac Malware Guide.

You need a PDF editor, at the high end use Adobe's Acrobat Professional, at the low end use the editing features in Preview (pre-loaded on your iMac). However you should probably look at the Mac App Store, you will find many of PDF editing applications. You simply need to find one that suits your needs.
