OS Level and License Key Question?

Hi Everyone, new potential Apple user here.
I am going to buy 2 Apple G4 notepads for our children. I know they will not come with an OS so I my question is, is it like Windows where you have a license key on the bottom and you can use the same CD to install the OS on both machines and just use the License Key that comes with the Laptop or will have to buy 2 copies of the OS one for each machine?
Next question, is what is the highest level of OS I can go to?
Sorry if the questions seem a little dull.
Thanks
Martin.

Hey Martin and Welcome to Apple Discussions,
I am going to buy 2 Apple G4 notepads for our children.
It would help to know which model you're buying, especially the CPU speed since that will determine which OSs can be run.
.. like Windows where you have a license key on the bottom and you can use the same CD to install the OS on both machines and just use the License Key that comes with the Laptop or will have to buy 2 copies of the OS one for each machine?
There is no "license key" in Mac OS X land ;<). Get used to not having to type those ridiculously complex keys in at the 4 minute mark.
With the single user license you can officially load on one machine. With the family pack you can load up to 5.
<div class="jive-quote">Next question, is what is the highest level of OS I can go to?
In general all the G4 iBooks will run Leopard so 10.5.8 updated. The 12" 800 Ghz will run Tiger so 10.4.11 updated. That's official but the installer can be hacked to run in that machine.

    Hi All,

  • ECO number with revision level and release key

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement from client with regards to Engineering change manangement.
    The scenario is that we are maintaining BOM for materials.Whenever a change is required  for BOM a ECO number is created with release key.
    Once the BOM is changed against ECO number is created a workflow is triggered for approval.
    Then it goes through a series of approvals in the heirarchy.In each level the reviewer will propose a new value for the changed line item.
    All these changes have to be maintained in record.At the end the final approver reviews all the proposed changes and release the ECO number with the appropriate change.
    I had a thought of implementing the above scenario with ECO with revision level and release key.
    But I am unable to replicate the scenario due the fact that,when I select the ECO number with release key,I cannot select the material in Object type.
    Its disabled.Its available when I create a ECR with release key.
    Please suggest a way to create ECO number with release key and revision level for BOM.
    Regards
    Richie

    Hi,
    You create the revision level against the material (via MM02, basic data tab)) not against the serial. The serial number, by definition, would be unique to the combination of material and revision.

  • Preparing for the inevitable - passwords and license keys backup

    Hey all,
    I have found my HD has some issues and therefore I'll need to (unfortunately) format it entirely and restore it....
    I am doing a backup using Time Machine anyways, but to be super safe I would like to save all settings, passwords and license keys for my applications.
    Is there a place where MacOs stores this data and is there a way to save it?
    thanks a lot in advance for your help.
    ciao,

    Hi there,
    1Password cannot 'read' licences automagically from installed software. I suspect because each developer stores this in a different manner (some may not store it all). However, if you have your software licenses in email, then you can re-enter them into 1Password

  • License key question with regards to upgrading from 7/8.1 to 10

    Hi, I hope I've posted my question in the right area of the forum:
    I understand that Windows 10 will be a free upgrade for Win7/Win8 users.
    That's really wonderful but I was wondering what the exact mechanism with regards to our 7/8 license keys. Here's a couple examples to clarify my question:
    first, example: I have Windows 7 Pro license and say I upgrade to 10 within the first year. Let's say I need to reinstall Windows after that first year is finished will I still be able to use that same license key I used to upgrade 7 to 10 to install a fresh
    copy of Windows 10 or will I need to purchase a new license because the year is elapsed? 
    Here's another scenario. I upgrade to Windows 10 from 7 and after trying Windows 10 for while, I decide to uninstall 10 and go back to 7... because I'm crazy like that.... Will I be able to use my original Key for Windows 7 or is the upgrade a one way road:
    where the 7 key turns into a Windows 10 key and can no longer be used to activate Windows 7?
    Thanks for the feedback!

    Hi Momashi
    Here's another scenario. I upgrade to Windows 10 from 7 and after trying Windows 10 for while, I decide to uninstall 10 and go back to 7...
    because I'm crazy like that.... Will I be able to use my original Key for Windows 7 or is the upgrade a one way road: where the 7 key turns into a Windows 10 key and can no longer be used to activate Windows 7?
    If you Upgrade to Windows 10 and do not like it, for whatever reason.
    Before you upgrade to Windows 10.
    Create an image of windows 7 to an external HD and a recovery CD, using windows 7 Backup and Restore.
    You can re-install windows 7 in the SAME SYSTEM using the recovery CD without using  a key.
    Hope it helps
    Where did you get your outlandish information about a Windows 7 key turning into a Windows 10 key?  Nothing in the past has ever happened like this before, so what makes you think it will happen with Windows 10?
    My Windows ME did not turn into a Windows XP key!
    My Windows XP key did not turn into a Windows Vista key!
    My Windows Vista key did not turn into a Windows 7 key!
    And so on!

  • Aggregation level and planning filter question

    Hi,
    I have below questions on aggregation levels and planning fitlers.
    Scenario: An Aggregation level is built on a multiprovider( Actual Cub1(5 chars, 4 keyfig), Actual Cube2(8 chars, 6 key fig), and Real Time Cube3(8 chars and 3 keyfig)). A FOX copy function has to be built on this aggregation level in which data from cube1 will be copied to cube 3.
    1. Does an Aggregation level need to have all chars and keyfigures from cube 1 and cube 3? or it should have structure of Cube 3 only as data will be written to cube 3?
    - what are the standard design considerations for defining aggregation level?
    2. In planning filter, both cube1 and cube3 are to be restricted or only cube3?
    Is it necessary that only target planning cube is to be resricted? In that case how function will get the source data from cube1?
    - what are the standard design considerations for defining planning filter?
    Please provide some info on this...
    any document on design consderations for planning object will be great.
    Thanks,
    Pundari.

  • License key question

    I will be adding a viewing license key to our PROD server which is for 2 processors.  The sever actually has 4 processors.  Will this cause any problems during installation?  Will BOSE use just 2 processors of the 4?  Or do we need a 4 processor license?

    Hi refnbe,
    Read the license terms carefully. If you have license for two processors and if you install software on a machine which is having 4 processors , then that means you are violating the license agreements , if im not wrong.
    Please contact sales person.

  • Flex4 automated builds and license key

    When working in Flex3, we were able to include the following configuration file with the license key:
    <flex-config>
        <licenses>
            <license>
                <product>flexbuilder3</product>
                <!--professional-->
                <serial-number>1234-1234-1234-1234-1234-1234</serial-number>
            </license>
        </licenses>
    </flex-config>
    Testing in Flex4, my QA person reports that he receives a message saying:  "License not prestent.  With teh trial version only limited replays are allowed " when QTP executes their tests.
    I had fashioned a config file after the one we used in our Flex3 build for Flex4:
    <flex-config>
        <licenses>
            <license>
                <product>flashbuilder4</product>
                <serial-number>1234-1234-1234-1234-1234-1234</serial-number>
            </license>
        </licenses>
    </flex-config>
    In the examples I have found on Adobe's site for Flex for they all just say to specify the product name.  I guessed based on Flex3 name that it should be flashbuilder4.  This was a guess on my part since I haven't found an actual example.  Does anyone have any suggestions on inserting a licnense key for Flex 4 in an ANT build?
    --Thanks

    Actually, mxmlc and fcsh ARE standard Adobe products.  They come with the SDK.  More importantly, they are free, so you can compile your flex apps without a license key.  You could hack together a build server using a cron job to fire up a bash script to pull down your release from svn, then invoke the mxmlc compiler (./mxmlc ....) and deploy the file.  One of the projects I was able to build using Hudson/maven, I'm not sure on the specifics though.

  • Clarification on - Oracle Version Update Patch and License Key

    Hello,
    I am currently using Oracle 9.2.0.4.0 version of oracle database. I want to update it to a higer version or we can say I would like to apply a new higer patch to this version.
    My questions are,
    1. Is there any new higer patch available for Oracle 9.2.0.4.0?
    2. If answer to above question is YES then, is the new patch requires the license key to implement?
    I have the license copy of Oracle 9.2.0.4.0.
    Do I require the license key to implement the new patch?
    Thanks in advance.
    Himanshu

    Yes the latest patch available on Oracle9i is 9.2.0.7.0 (on windows 32 bit). But in general I think its 9.2.0.6.0. You can check at metalink against the platform you are using.
    No I don't think you need a license to apply the patch if you already have one.

  • T430s or T431s? and a key question concerning the T431s mSATA slot

    T431s or T430s?
    First let me apologize for my English, sorry if reading through this cause you any headache…
    I gave away my T410 (bad bad decision) the day after I got a i7 Yoga 13 with 256G SSD, and bought a M4 256G which I planned to put in the free mSATA slot, only to find out i can't live with that yoga keyboard and that huge off-center touchpad which gets in the way all the time a few days later... anyway, end up returned that yoga13 and is using my heavily abused limping T500 now with a replaced motherboard... I was looking to go back to thinkpad and buy a T430s right away but Lenovo announced T431s one day afterwards. now i dont know what to choose, although leaning towards T431s a little bit.
    things i'm looking for in my next laptop: first X1C is not an option for me, I can’t accept that screen with high dot pitch.
    l  weight: less than my T410, it doesnt have to be light as an Acer S7 or Samsung 9, just reasonably lighter, and as slim as possible.
    l  Processing power: doesn’t really matter, anything i5 or i7, M or U… all fine to me, I can run Lightroom, DPP and video processing applications on my desktop and I don’t play games. 8G or more RAM is needed.
    l  Storage: comes with 256GB SSD or user upgradeable to 256GB SSD is an absolute minimum requirement, but I really prefer any flexibility to configure a second drive, HDD or SSD, is a big plus, preferably HDD as the second drive.
    l  Screen: wouldn’t mind squeezing my eyes on a FHD screen, but I can only settle on a 900p, afterall I’m looking for a thinkpad, have to live with that screen, right?
    l  Tough… every one of my laptop gets dropped once or twice… many many times in the case of my old T410… so it needs to be tough…
    l  Not much else…
    So, T431s is lighter, slimmer, user replaceable 7mm SSD, mSATA available (a concerning question later), all good, and I like the new look. And I don’t care much about the indicators, lid lock, flipped logo or that new touchpad (I think I can manage, maybe…).
    So what do I have to sacrifice if I choose T431s? removable battery, ultrabay for optical drive and HDD, full voltage cpu, and possibly a couple hundred dollars… since we don’t know for sure how much optional parts will cost in customized build, and of course the risk of buying an unproven, newly designed product. Did I miss any other key point?
    If I didn’t miss many advantages that T430s have, I probably should go with T431s, it was all good until I found a video which shows how to disassembled a T431s (http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XNTI5NzIxMzg4.html) and at about 4 mins in, it shows that the WWAN card is secured by a single retaining screw in the middle on the outer edge, unlike typical mSATA SSD which should be secured on the 2 corners of the board. Does this mean users can no longer install a mSATA SSD on T431s? if so, I can only have one 7mm SSD instead of having OS installed on a 256G mSATA, and have a 500G HDD to storage all the photos and videos, which I was intended to do, that maybe a deal breaker…
    I don’t really understand these hardware upgrades, can some one please tell me for sure whether the mSATA slot on T431s, as shown in the video, can be used to intall a regular mSATA SSD. If I can, I’ll probably still struggle to make the decision, if it can’t be used to install SSD, T430s it is.
    Any help is appreciated!
    Kai
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    thanks, yes, it's the new NGFF M.2, and the new form factor is a lot more complicated than the old mSATA slot, different dimensions for different storage size, and it maybe single side for WWAN, cashe drive, or double side for actual SSD perfermance... 
    if i'm gonna get a T431s, i'll just buy the 320G 5400RPM low end drive, make a recovery media from Win8, and reset to factory setting after intall a 512GB 840 Pro, or the much cheaper M4...
