Old computer broke, activation is not working, NO HELPLINE?

Hey Guys.
I really need to activate my Adobe Master Collection. Since my old broke down a couple of weeks ago, I installed it on a new computer. But the activation doesn't work because "it has been installed too many times". There is NO HELPLINE AT ALL and the chat is at this time of day (it's about 23:00) not available (which is REALLY weird, I would really expect better service for a product I payed quite a lot of money...!)
Anyways, is someone from adobe around here who could help me? I really need to use Premiere Pro.

While there are a few Adobe employees who post in this forum, I don't think any of them will be able to give direct help with an activation issue
You are really going to have to use chat... Next link has a "Chat Now" button near the bottom

Hi t0m#2410,
How did you install Acrobat, did you install it as a part of Suite installation.
If it is a part of suite then deactivate suite uninstall Acrobat, Reinstall Acrobat using Suite media. Launch Photoshop first and Activate.
Then try launch Acrobat.

I'm a bit of a technophobe so any help gratefully received thanks

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use this to put eveything back.

How can I transfer my music from an Ipod to my new MAC? My old computer broke.

My old computer broke. I got a new MAC Book PRO. I have all may music in an Ipod classic. Can I recover my music to my new MAc?

Does the old hard drive still work? You can buy an external hard drive case and transfer data to your new Macbook Pro and recover your itunes libary. As far as i'm aware, Apple have not created software or allow you to move music from ipod to Mac.

I have used Illustrator CS3 on my two try or three previous computers. Now I try to install Illustrator CS3 on a my new (4 weeks old) computer. Adobe does not allow me, but demands me to proof myself being an owner of Illustrator CS2 or older. I don't manage to speak English on phone, bad hearing, to fast spoken, odd expressions.What can I do? Is there a possibility to write a complain?

Old computer broke down, didn´t synchronize the latest bookmarks

A few days ago my old computer broke down and I am currently using a spare computer for the time being. I used Firefox sync on my old computer and on the spare one before the old one crashed. Still the latest bookmarks from my old computer are now missing on the spare computer (it´s actually 4 or 5 months of bookmarks... so quite a lot is missing). I can´t access any data on my old computer so I tried to reinstall firefox and reconnect to the sync server but the latest bookmarks are still missing.
Is there any way to get the lost bookmarks back?
Thanks in advance for any advice!

Hello,
Sorry to hear about the computer breaking down. Are you able to access the hard-drive of the old computer? Was it a Windows machine? If so, you can locate the bookmarks on the hard-drive of the machine, by following the below mentioned instructions.
# Locate the profile folder of Firefox on the old hard-drive by following these instructions [[Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data|Location of profile data]]
# In the bookmarkbackups directory, copy the bookmarks-YYYY-MM-DD.json to your new machine on a different directory
# Restore the bookmarks by following the instructions in this article [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer|Restore backups]]
# This link from SUMO might also be helpful for you [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/961452 Copy and restore bookmarks]
If the hard-drive is not accessible, then it will be difficult to access the bookmarks, if the synch was not enabled. Do you remember when the last synch happened?
Hope this helps.

What is your operating system & version?
What is your web browser?
What means "not working"; what do you see instead of the expected Flash content?

My old computer with itunes no longer works. If I hook my ipod to my new computer will I lose the songs that are on it now?

Yes, you will.
Do you have the songs still?
You could add them to your new library if you do.
