Questions about going from Trial Version to Academic Version?

1.) I'm using a trial version of LR and adding keywords through it. I'm planning to purchase the Academic version with the next few weeks. I'm assuming that everything I do with the trial version will also open up in the Academic version? All my keywording, etc.
2.) I am starting with Lightroom on my Macbook Pro notebook with the trial account and am tagging images, and want to move all the images later to my desktop Macpro computer when I purchase the academic version of LR. Is this a bad idea for any reason? Will I be able to easily transfer everything without LR getting confused for any reason?
Thanks.

Changes made in Lightroom such as keywords still need to be written out to the files if they are visible in other applications as Lightroom is a database that contains changes in a non-destrcutive manner. You can do this by turning on Autowrite to Xmp in Catalog Settings or by selecting all your files and ctrl/cmd-s (the usual save settings. Lightroom does NOT contain image files, they stay where they are on your HD and does NOT back up the image files. A Lightroom back up only backs up the Catalog file itself.
If you stop using Lightroom development changes would only be visisble in ACR, to see them in other applications you would need to export the files as Tiffs, etc which will contain the changes made. This would be just the same if you used Canon's DPP, nothing else can read changes.

Color shift going from trial version to full version CS5

Hi guys, I have just gone from trial version of CS5 master collection to a full version of master collection CS5 on my PC.
My trial expired so I uninstalled it completely, then reinstalled fresh from the CS5 DVD. I also updated all of the programs straight after the install. (something which I don't think I did with the trial version).
My problem now is though I am experiencing quite a big color shift from what the trial version was showing me to what my full version is showing me. (Yes I have checked the color settings, they are all pretty much default North American General Purpose 2)
In the trial version the colors were correct, but now my file I am working on my "mouve blue have moved into almost a purple appearance."
Also if I go into acrobat and open the PDF version of the file I was previously working on the colors are also displaying incorrectly when opening the PDF that was created in the trial (which was displaying correct when using the trial). So I guess its not just PS related.
I have a laptop which is also running a trial version of master collection, and when I copy my file to this machine and open the colors are spot on how they should be (just like they were prior to me going full version) which tells me something has definatley changed in this installed full version of CS5 for me.
Not sure what I should do, unstall the software and reinstall it without doing the updates?
PS. Under color managment / advanced, windows color system defaults, my Device profile is: System Default (sRGB IEC61966-2.1)
Viewing conditions profile: System default (WCS profile for sRGB viewing conditions)
I havent changed anything there anyway in any install.
Any help would be great

Some key points to help understand why you might be seeing what you are:
When color-management is set up properly with a wide gamut monitor, sRGB images can seem dull and lifeless compared to wider gamut images such as those expressed in Adobe RGB or ProPhoto RGB.
Not all apps are color-managed, so with e.g. a wide gamut monitor you'll see a significant visual difference between the same image displayed via a color-managed app such as Photoshop and a non-color-managed app such as Internet Explorer 8 and earlier. Even though the color-managed applications may be displaying accurate color, many folks feel the inconsistency is "wrong" as compared to when more different apps display the same colors, which will happen with sRGB as the monitor profile (which is the Windows default).
People often consider more vibrant, saturated color "better".
Color management often does not actually work properly. Not all profiles are created equal, even properly formatted monitor profiles may not accurately express the monitor's capabilities, and not all color management in applications is done properly. You're not the first to report problems with a canned Dell monitor profile.

When going from Trial version to full must you uninstall and reinstall?

Windows user here with two questions:
I currently use Lightroom 1.4 at work and would like to look into upgrading to 2.0. If I load the trial 2.0 version will it overwrite 1.4?
Once I load 2.0 and decide it's worth the upgrade (multi monitor alone makes me think it is) do I simply enter in a purchased serial number or do you have to uninstall the trial and then purchase/install the full?
Thanks
Bryan

>I currently use Lightroom 1.4 at work and would like to look into upgrading to 2.0. If I load the trial 2.0 version will it overwrite 1.4?
No...although some people suggest removing 1.4.1 after installing 2.0. YMMV
>Once I load 2.0 and decide it's worth the upgrade (multi monitor alone makes me think it is) do I simply enter in a purchased serial number or do you have to uninstall the trial and then purchase/install the full?
Yes, just enter the serial number provided upon purchase the next time you launch (instead of clicking on demo).

Question about going from source monitor into timeline prior to going into program monitor?

In FCP you had to take a clip from the equivalent of the Source Monitor to the Program Monitor and either do an insert or overwite edit with the clip from there. I see that Premiere has insert and overwrite buttons built right into the Source monitor window. Are there any issues with doing it all from here and not dragging them into the Program Monitor first?
Thanks.

Typical NLE behavior is to go from the Source Monitor to the Timeline. The Program Monitor shows whatever is in the timeline. If FCP forced you to go from Source to Program, and then to timeline, that is very unusual behavior for an NLE since, again, the Program monitor is supposed to show you what's in the timeline.
What PP now allows you to do is drag a clip from Source to Program, but this will simultaneously add the clip to the timeline because, as I said, the Program Monitor's purpose is to show you what's in the timeline. With most any NLE out there, if it ain't in the timeline, it won't show up in the Program Monitor. And if it shows up in the Program Monitor, then it must already be in the timeline.

How to switch from Trial version of CC apps to Full version purchased for me.

I recently joined a new company. First day on the job, I downloaded trial versions of InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop only to find out that the company had purchased a subscription for Creative Cloud for me. How do I get off the trial versions and onto the full versions?

Hi avgjoe62,
You can simply use the email address used to purchase the subscription to license the software from trial version.
The subscription is linked to the Adobe ID (email address).

Upgrading from Trial version to Developer Edition

We installed SQL server 2014 trial edition in 2014 and the trial period just expired. No longer access SQL server 2014. Also in 2014 I purchased the SQL server 2014 Developer Edition.
I go in the maintenance section of SQL server 2014 and try to upgrade by entering my product key and get an error message that my product key is not valid. I called Microsoft and two different employees confirmed my product key is good.
Should I be able to upgrade from Trial version to Developer Edition by simply entering my product key?
Thank you

Hi cguay01,
As other post, you should be able to upgrade from Trial Edition to Developer Edition by entering product key from SQL Server setup wizard, you can follow the steps in this similar
blog. You can also use the following command lines to upgrade SQL Server 2014 Trial to a full version.
Setup.exe /q /ACTION=editionupgrade /INSTANCENAME=<MSSQLSERVER or instancename> /PID=<PID key for new edition>" /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS
According to your description, the issue that “product key is not valid” might be caused by several reasons such as corrupted installation file, antivirus scanning and so on. There are some proposals for you troubleshooting this issue.
1. Please ensure that your SQL Server installation file is not corrupted. If you are using ISO download, please copy the content of the ISO image to the local disk on your computer and upgrade SQL Server from there.
2. Make sure you use corresponding license key matched the edition and version of SQL Server.
3. Make sure that you don’t exceed the limit of allowed activations of the product key.
4. Turn off any Anti-virus software when upgrading SQL Server.
There is also a similar thread for your reference.

Questions about upgrading from Exchange 2010 RTM to Exchange 2010 Service Pack 3

I am preparing to perform an maintenance upgrade on our current Exchange 2010 Server, to Service Pack 3 (and any post-SP3 roll ups), but I have a couple questions about the process.
Current Exchange Server details:
Exchange 2010 Standard
Version: 14.0 (Build 639.21) - from Exchange Management Console
Version: 14.0.702.4000 - from Outook client
Active Directory forest and domain levels: Windows 2008 R2 native
The questions I have are:
1. Can I assume that because it's version 10.0.702.4000 I am on Exchange Server 2010 RTM Update Rollup 4?
2. Can Exchange 2010 Standard RTM be patched directly to Service Pack 3, or would I need to perform incremental patches (i.e. SP1, SP2, etc.) before going to SP3?
3. Do I need to manually perform the AD domain schema prep before applying Service Pack 3, or will the Service Pack 3 update process automatically handle the modifications of the AD schema?

Hi,
Here are my answers you can refer to:
1. Firstly, I’d like to explain , we can use connection status to check our Exchange server version from Outlook client:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/outlook-help/determine-the-version-of-microsoft-exchange-server-my-account-connects-to-HA010117038.aspx
And I check my version from both EMC and Outlook client. It’s same.
2. We can directly update RTM version to SP3 , and the update will take an additional 30 minutes or longer per database.
3. Since Exchange 2010 SP3 makes updates to the Active Directory schema, we need prepare AD domain schema. However, it will automatically prepare AD and the domain when you install the update.
For more information, you can refer to the following article:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj965774(v=exchg.141).aspx
If you have any question, please feel free to let me know.

From trial version to full version

I've been working with the trial version of the Aperture 3.1.2.
Now I want to buy the full version (the version I have is full but it will expire in 10 days).
I just want to be sure, if I buy if from the app store on my Mac, that I'll just get the key and don't have to download the whole program again. I've put in a lot of work to get my albums and stuff all sorted and I would REALLY hate to start over.
I just want to be sure before I do anything stupid.
And I do want to buy it from the app store on my Mac cause it's about $100 cheaper then buying the box.
Thanks so much
Sophie

And to be clear, no matter how you download and install Aperture, any Library (you can have more than one) you created will still be there afterwards. Installing the App Store version (which you're going to have to do) doesn't overwrite the Library you created with the Trial Version. At worst, when you start up the purchased version you might have to tell it where your Library is, if you don't have it in your Pictures folder.

Upgrade from trial version to full

I wonder if someone can assist, although this is not a tech query. I am currently using Elements 7 and considering upgrading to Photoshop CS5. I can take the upgrade path and save nearly £100. Further, if I order the boxed version from Adobe instead of downloading it I can save a further £20 or so (no, I don't understand why either!). However, if I download and install the trial version of CS5 before deciding to buy I am concerned that these options may no longer be available if I do choose to buy. I would hate to find that, by installing the trial version first it might cost me about £120.00. Is there anyone who can comment on this with authority?
Many thanks
Paul

Why should Adobe care about you trying their software? No, this wil lhave no influence on the actual purchase. Two unrelated systems. they may even offer you another upgrade path with additional discounts when sending you those trial reminders...

General queries about going from Tiger Quadcore to Leopard Octocore

For those who have switched from their Tiger Quadcore MacPros to the new Leopard Octocore MacPros...I had some questions about the set up and how things are running now since its already upto 10.5.2
I run basically these programs:
Adobe Photoshop CS2
ImageReady CS2
Illustrator CS2
InDesign CS2
Dreamweaver / Flash / Fireworks 8
Office 2004
ProTools LE
is there a general lack of support for the CS2 Applications and the Macromedia Applications?
I dont have the funds at my disposal to unload on the entire CS3 Suite ( I REALLY WOULD BUT cant now...so CS2 is my only bet)
Is there still support for the future with CS2 and Macromedia8?
i realize theyre old Apps but they have faired well for me for the past few years
Im just trying to get a general conscious of what to expect ~ i have tried running leopard on this set up ran CS2, Macromedia 8 and Office 04 didnt seem bad at all..but i wasnt sure as i didnt spend all day every day with them and moving to that specific platform id like to kind of be aware of any issues anyone has experienced first hand as there is no going back then - lol.

Moved to Leopard with new Machine and the Bridge in CS2 stopped working and all I can get out of
Adobe is so or this will not be supported.

Can't print from trial version of InDesign 5.5

Hi
I've just installed the trial version of InDesign 5.5; it works fine except I can't print to my Konica Minolta laserprinter - the file goes to the printer but then vanishes from the printer queue without actually printing. The printer still works with other applications. What am I doing wrong? Any help gratefully received!

Unsuccessful export from trial version of CS6 InDesign to EPUB

I'm hoping it's because I have a trial version of InDesign. When I export from InDesign to EPUB 2.0.1
I'm following instructions from this video, but all I get is an empty file. No error message, just the blank file.
I'm trying to test how anchors work for layout in an ebook.
http://tv.adobe.com/watch/creative-suite-podcast-designers/how-to-maintain-formatting-when -exporting-your-epub-from-indesign-cs6/
Is it because it is the trial version? I'm hoping so, but if not, any thoughts on what am I missing?
Thanks in advance,
Joan

You need to learn more about creating EPUB files. You also need a real EPUB reader.
You can download Adobe Digital Editions for free:
http://www.adobe.com/products/digital-editions.edu.html?promoid=DTEIO
It reads EPUB files. iBooks is OK but there are reasons it may reject a file which is a perfectly valid EPUB file.
I'd suggest Liz Castro's EPUBs about creating EPUBs in InDesign:
