Re-installing Adobe Lightroom with cd software after re-installing the operating system?

i wiped my computer clean and re-installed the operating system on my macbook pro because it's old and i hadn't done it in a long time. now i'm putting all of my old software back onto the computer. everything else had no problem. adobe lightroom 2 will not let me re-install it and keeps giving me an error message, telling me to contact the software manufacturer. the cd is not damaged at all and i have the serial number for the software, etc... what's wrong? why can't i put it back on my computer? i've done this at least twice before and had no problems.

What version of Mac you are installing and what is the exact error message ?

Unless you go back to the original owner, yes you need to pay for it again.
You're entitled to the OS that shipped with the device from Apple, but if you don't have that media there's nothing you can really do. If the system originally shipped with 10.7 or 10.8 then when you boot it to Internet Recovery, it will automatically offer you that OS version (as the serial # is registered with Apple). If it shipped with an older OS, then you need to enter the Apple ID that purchased 10.7 or 10.8. You didn't purchase it so that's not you.
The options you have are to buy Lion for $29 US (I don't know the price in Palestine), or Mountain Lion for $19 US (don't know the price in Palestine either), and install from scratch.
And it's a good idea to know you have restore media before you reformat your machine.

I had to delete everything on my computer and install the operating system again , but I had to install Snow Leopard because it was the cd that came with the computer when I bought it. The problem is that I had already paid for the OS Lion and even had upgraded to the Mavericks . I do not think it's fair to have to pay again and I would like to upgrade my operating system without having to pay again for the same system.

Hi anatuta,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you are trying to upgrade your Mac to a newer version of OS X, after completing a fresh install of Snow Leopard.
If you have already purchased and downloaded OS X Lion and Mavericks, you should be able to find these items in the Purchased section of the Mac App Store.
You may find the steps in this article helpful with finding the items:
Mac App Store: Finding your purchased apps - Apple Support
If you do not see the items in the Purchased section, they may be hidden:

All the best,
Jeremy

HT4848 Hello- My laptop needs the OS X recovery run. Can I download the software directly to a thumb drive without affecting my desktop unit? The Geek Squad said they need to wipe my hard drive and re-install the operating system. Thanks.

Hello- My laptop needs the OS X recovery run. Can I download the software directly to a thumb drive without affecting my desktop unit? The Geek Squad said they need to wipe my hard drive and re-install the operating system. Thanks.

They already damaged you Mac by fooling with the BootCamp partition without knowing what they were doing. I wouldn't suggest haveing them help you do anything.
Here is the article that describes the Recovery HD: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
First, see if you can boot into the Recovery HD. Restart and hold down cmd-r until you see the gray screen. It should boot into Recovery. If your Mac shipped with Lion or Mountain Lion, it will boot into Internet Recovery if it cannot boot into the Recovery HD on the hard drive.
They should have tried this at the store.

i have zero out all data on my imac, as i brought it second hand and the disk the guy supplied dont seem capatable with my imac to install the operating system again so it is frozen at the grey start up screen. should i buy a new snow leopard disc from apple and install that as my new operating system. please help as had the computer a month now and still cant use it yet.

You can call AppleCare and request a replacement set of the original DVD's that shipped with the computer for a nominal charge. You will need the serial number (look on the bottom of the stand) and a credit card. Click the AppleCare Contact Info link. Without knowing which iMac you have it's very difficult to say if a new SL disc would work or not.

How do I re-install the operating system on my BlackBerry Torch 9800 - I am sure it is hacked.

Greetings,
Can someone point me to instructions on how to re-install the operating system on a BlackBerry Torch 9800 and then upgrade it to the latest release?
I have done this several times in the past, due to recurring hacking, but have lost the instructions.
Thank you very much for your help.
Regards,
Jean-Pierre
P.S. I would preffer a releas of the OS without any pre-install applicaitons such as Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn,
and above all, Whastapp. Thank you.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
The simplest way is to, on a PC (you cannot do this on MAC):
1) Make sure you have a current and complete backup of your BB...you can find complete instructions via the link in my auto-sig below.
2) Uninstall, from your PC, any BB OS packages
3) Make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed
http://us.blackberry.com/software/desktop.html
4) Download and install, to your PC, the BB OS package you desire:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
It is sorted first by carrier -- so if all you want are the OS levels your carrier supports, your search will be quick. However, some carriers are much slower than others to release updates. To truly seek out the most up-to-date OS package for your BB, you must dig through and find all carriers that support your specific model BB, and then compare the OS levels that they support.
5) Delete, on your PC, all copies of VENDOR.XML...there will be at least one, and perhaps 2, and they will be located in or similarly to (it changes based on your Windows version) these folders:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
C:\Users\(your Windows UserName)\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
6a) For changing your installed BB OS level (upgrade or downgrade), you can launch the Desktop Software and connect your BB...the software should offer you the OS package you installed to your PC.
6b) Or, for reloading your currently installed BB OS level as well as for changing it, bypass the Desktop Software and use LOADER.EXE directly, by proceeding to step 2 in this process:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Device-Software/How-To-Reload-Your-Operating-Syste...
Note that while written for "reload" and the Storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade, or reload any BB device model -- it all depends on the OS package you download and install to your PC.
If, during the processes of 6a or 6b, your BB presents a "507" error, simply unplug the USB cord from the BB and re-insert it...don't do anything else...this should allow the install to continue.
If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:
KB19915How to perform a clean reload of BlackBerry smartphone application software using BlackBerry Desktop Software
Good luck and let us know!

If anyone has been helpful to you, please show your appreciation by clicking the button inside of their post.

How can i re-install the operating system without deleting my files on the computer

I'm Trying to re-install the operating system on my macbook, and i dont know, if i can only re-install the OS without deleting the Data on the computer.

If the Snow Leopard version on your Snow Leopard DVD is lower than the Snow Leopard version on your computer, you will NOT in any case be able to re-install the OS the way you want it. You will only be able to erase your disk and then reinstall the OS.
It will only "upgrade" and keep your files if the Mac OS X version of your Snow Leopard DVD is newer than the Snow Leopard version on your computer.

I just tried to reset my iPad...then couldn't reset it. I don't know how to install the operating system on it again

Is this how you reset?
1. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together)
2. For about 10 seconds
3. Until you see the Apple logo (very important)
4. Ignore the red slider

I bought a used iMac and I want to format and re-install the operating system however it didn't come w/operating system software.

I bought an iMac from a client and I'm concerned that the software that is on the system is not secure. I would like to remove everything and start with factory default programs and settings. The system is about 3-4 years old and there are no original operating system software discs.
How to I re-format the hard drive, and do I need to purchase an operating system for it?
Thanks.

Your best bet is to call AppleCare and order a set of original OS X Install Discs, you will need a credit card and the serial number of the computer. If you don't know what version of OS X was on the system when it originally was purchased that is the best thing to do, otherwise you're shooting in the dark. The cost is going to be in the $30-40 range I believe.
You didn't complete your profile so we have no idea where you are located or anything about your system. You can use the following link to locate AppleCare's phone number in your country.

Download Mavericks from the Mac App Store, or install those applications from a DVD; iLife 11 DVDs are available from sources such as Amazon and eBay, and if your computer's incapable of running Mavericks, it'll have come with disks which can be used to install them.

There is no opportunity to download it, Richo. Your best bet is to have an acquaintance in the USA, Latin America, or Canada order the recovery discs and ship them to you.

How do I install the operating system on a store bought hard drive?

I purchased a hard drive from best buy to replace the one that died on my hp G60-501. When I try to run the system install disk, it runs through the entire thing (around 1.5 hours). When it finally finishes, it says that it needs to be reinstalled. I have done this several times but to no avail. I was told that the drive needs to be tatooed for HP. WHat does this mean? How do I do it? Is it something that I can do on my own?

There should be no need to tattoo anything. What type of system install disk are you using? Is it the one you made when the computer was new using the DVD burner? I am suspecting a problem with the recovery disk. What brand of hard drive is it? We can get you a utility disk for the drive and I suggest wiping it clean and starting over. You should be able to order an HP recovery disk or just use a retail or OEM Windows disk.

Most of my icons have turned white after I upgraded the operating system

Instalation of operating system

I've been given a mac G4 400Hz, everything is in german, and I'd like to instal the operating system in english. I really don't know how to start, can I "format" everything like in a PC and instal afterwards the new operating system? Can somebody give a clue on how to do it? thank you

Hi, davi -
Welcome to Apple's Discussions,
If you do not want to retain anything that's now on the hard drive, then yes, reformatting the drive would be the thing to do. In fact, deep-wiping the drive using the low-level or zero-all-data options (whichever is available) would be best. Note that using zer-all-data will take a while, about one hour per each 10GB of drive size.
You can do that to the the drive while booted to an OS 9 Install CD, using Frive Setup drom the Utilities folder on the CD. Best would be to use a retail OS 9.1 or OS 9.2.1 Install CD - those have current versions of Drive Setup, one which does not contain a defect that earlier versions had.
You should select Mac OS Extended as the format for the drive, when asked.
This article can help in doing the above - Using Drive Setup
In order to change the language to English you will need to acquire a retail OS 9 Install CD in English; OS 9 Install CDs come with only one OS language version per CD.
A G4 400MHz model can be one of three models - G4 (PCI); G4 (AGP); or G4 (Gigabit Ethernet). This Apple KBase article can help distinguish one from the other -
Article #58418 - Power Mac G4: How to Differentiate Between Models
The G4 (PCI) and G4 (AGP) models can use a retail OS 9.0.4 or later Install CD; a G4 (GE) model can not use that disk, but it can use a retail OS 9.1 or later Install CD.
You can often get retail OS 9.1 or 9.2.1 Install CD's in English at sites like these -
http://store.yahoo.com/hardcoremac/index.html - Apple Reseller
http://www.applerescue.com/
If you are in Europe, you may be able to get such a CD in International English at similar sites in the UK.
EBay is another possibility.
Regardless of the source, be sure to get a retail OS 9 Install CD - those are white, with a large gold 9 on them; the retail OS 9 Install CD's have a universal installer; model-specific Install CD's do not.
Once the OS has been installed, it can be updated using download updaters from Apple's website.
In case you need the updaters (note that there are separate downloads for North American English and International English - the download must match the language of the installed OS) -
Article #75103 - Mac OS 9.1 - Download and Info
Article #120030 - Mac OS 9.2.1 - Download and Info
Article #75186 - Mac OS 9.2.2 - Download and Info
Using an OS 9 Install CD is easy.
• Boot the machine to the CD - to do that, with the CD in the drive restart or boot, then immediately hold the C key down, keep it held down until the machine has started to boot to the CD - it can take a few minutes.
• Redo the drive as needed, using Drive Setup.
• Install the OS. To do that, double-click the item Mac OS Install on the CD. Follow the prompts - a standard install of the OS should be fine.
• Once the installation of the OS is finished, test boot to it. To do that, open the Startup Disk control panel (Apple manu > Control Panels > Startup Disk), make sure the OS on the hard drive has been selected, then restart.
Note - retail OS 9 Install CDs do not include much in the way of usable programs. They do include a couple of choices of browsers and some other utility programs, including SimpleText, a basic text reader program. However, they do not include upper-end word processing programs, graphics apps, etc.
