Re-installing Contribute 3 onto new PC with Vista

After I've moved all the folders and file across to my new
Pc, and then double click the 'Contribute' icon, the program
doesn't run, but I get an error message "MMxpt has stopped
working".
Can anyone help me?

Craig, simply moving your files across to the new pc will not
work, you still need to reinstall contribute using the install
discs.

I am trying to install my CS4 Suite onto new PC with Windows 8. It installed Photoshop but nothing else. It is asking me to "Install with 'setup.exe'" Which i dont think is on there. Is there a way around this? Thanks in advance.

Run the cleaner tool and reinstall with sufficient user privileges and security stuff turned off. Your install went wrong because you didn't consider this.

Installing desktop software on new laptop with Vista

I had a laptop with XP and everything worked fine. Got a new one with Vista and now the software will not install. It did install properly (at least I thought) once, but then would not sync with the device. I tried 4.2 and I tried 4.7, both from the Blackberry site. I keep getting the error message "windows is shutting down the desktop software installation and will notify you of a solution". This is after 20-45 minutes of downloading. My device is a Verizon Curve. Any thoughts?

I installed it twice each time under program file as it wouldn't recognize the program file(x64) folder. I created an adobe folder under program file and installed there which when perfectly well including name, serial number until disc 3 of CS2 suite.
Interestingly when I opened photoshop it showed the correct name and serial number but the error statement I first commented showed.
Perhaps I am just going to have to spring for CS4

Can you install Tiger onto a drive with data?

Hello,
I would like to ask if you can install Tiger onto a hard drive that already has data files on it. I have a 250 GIG hard drive and it already has 10 GIGs of data on it. Can I install Tiger on this drive or might it corrupt my files?
Its a long story but here is a quick summary of why I am attempting to do this:
I have a 350 MHz Blue and white G3 (rev 1) with two hard drives: the original 12 GIG ATA drive and a 250 GIG SATA drive (internal) connected with a 1S2 Seritek SATA controller.
My 250 GIG drive has two partitions but only one is available to Tiger. You see, by accident I originally formatted my 250 GIG drive with an extremely small partion (32 Megs). I meant to type "30 GIGs" and by accident I typed "30 Megs". Oops That was supposed to be my OSX 10.4 volume. Its too late now - its too small. So I only have two choices for a place for TIger: my 12 GIG drive or the other partition of my 250 GIG drive. I am reluctant to choose my 12 GIG drive because it already has an older OS on it (OS 8.6).
I was concerned about installing TIger on the data partition of the 250 GIG drive because that is where all my valuable data files are - 10 Gigs of data. I don't want to risk scrambling this data in any way.
Is it safe to install Tiger onto this partition with my data files? Or is the possibility it might do something to my data.
Its only a temporary install so that I could burn my 10 GIGs of data files to DVD for backup and then I will start all over again and erase the entire hard drive and reinstall from scratch onto the 250 GIG drive once my data files are safely backed up. (I will not partition the 250 GIG drive i nthe final install - it will be one big partition.)
One other question:
When you format a disk in Tiger are there options to "low level format" or "zero all data" or will just a straight "erase" do the job sufficiently? I bought my 250 GIG Hitachi SATA drive new and so I am not sure if it worth the time to re-erase it with "zero all data" (if that is an option in the Tiger Disk Utility). What is the best formatting option to prepare this drive in the most beneficial for Tiger?
Thanks for any suggestions.

Thanks scb and Jeff,
Jeff, you have me thinking now. I think I will be safe and try another idea. I have a 4 GIG internal SCSI drive I could use to backup my data in 4 GIG sections at a time via my Adaptec 2430 SCSI card. I could then move this hard drive over to my other G3 onto its 40 GIG hard drive. This would be done three times to take off all my data and essentially provide a backup before I install Tiger. Good idea. You are right. It is better to play it safe.
By the way 8.6 can handle HFS+. And yes, I should eventually buy an external drive solution - probably an enclosure. I saw one called "coolmax" [1]. It could hold a SATA drive and it had USB, firewire and also an external SATA port.
And also Jef thanks for the info about formatting drives. I am glad to hear it is not important to zero all data if you don't have to. I am not concerned about havig anything to hide and so yes, I will just click "format" - that should be fine. Zero all data takes such a long time and I would rather avoid using it if I don't need this feature. Thanks for the advice.
Thanks for the new safer direction.

Time Capsule access goes away, after new comps with vista

Hi. I am not a computer person, but I work in a small nonprofit and our IT person has gone on vacation. our network keeps creashing and we loose access to the time capsule data. This all started happening after we installed 2 new computeres with Windows Vista and 2 new laptops with Vista were added to the network. Can somebody please help me out. I can't get any work done! Thanks =)

The question is, does the orange blinking light matter and or is it indicating that I am improperly using the machine?
The amber light is like the "Check Engine" light in your car. It blinks for a reason......the Time Capsule has a message for you.
That message might be that there is a firmware update available for the Time Capsule that needs to be installed....or....that AirPort Utility has detected that the Time Capsule is not configured correctly to work with the Xfinity router that you are now using.
To see the message.....open Finder > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click on the amber dot
Then look for a Status setting, and click on the small amber dot there
A message will appear to tell you why the Time Capsule is whining, along with a suggested action to fix the issue.
If you are still having difficult, we for you to post back with the exact message that you see.

New computer with vista, old computer with xp

My old computer has xp and LV8.
I just bought a new one with Vista.
I have several applications that I programmed and I am wondering if they will work in vista.
Any suggestions about partitioning and installing xp and sticking with it. Or what would I need to get applications built with 8.0 to work on a vista computer.
Jim

The first version of LabVIEW that is officially supported under Vista is 8.2.1. You may not have any problems with 8.0 but you will have to install all new drivers for any hardware you might be using (DAQmx, NI-VISA, etc.).

I have Adobe 5.0, original disk, 6.0 upgrade, original disk, and Adobe CS2. I'd like to install in my new computer with Win.8.1. Can you help?

Forget about all the versions you already have (5.0 through to CS2). They will no longer work and the serial numbers are redundant.
Download the non-activation version of CS2 form the link provided by kglad and use the new non-activation serial number provided at that link. Your existing serial number(s) will no longer work.
Note: there is no guarantee that CS2 will run well on Win 8.1. Try it and see.

Unable to install itunes for new computer with windows 8

unable to install itunes for new computer with windows 8
states this app unable to run on this PC

Hello jgrn76,
It sounds like you are getting an error stating that the iTunes installer cannot be run on your computer. I would try downloading the 64 bit version of iTunes from here:
iTunes 11.1.3 for Windows (64-bit)
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1615
If issues persist when trying to install it, I would try running through the steps in the article named:

Otherwise, would you mind elaborating a bit on what the error message says, word for word?
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

I just got a new computer with Vista on it. When I hook my WRT54G router to it, I am unable to send e-mails. They get stuck in my OUTBOX and I get a timeout error. I can receive e-mails but cannot send them. Also, my internet can drag at times when the router is connected. When I remove the router, everything works fine.
I've contacted Tech support several times and every suggestion they give doesn't solve the problem. I've updated firmware, changed all sorts of settings in the router setup page, including adjusting my Port Range Forward settings (at the instruction of tech support)
I'm wondering if it's just a Vista thing and I should buy a newer router. I don't know what else to do.
Any suggestions?
Patrick

Well if you can send emails, when you connect computer to modem directly, then it might be ports forwarding issue. Update firmware of router to latest version and assign a static ip on computer like 192.168.1.11, and obtain ports used by outgoing mail server, and forward those ports to static IP assigned, on router's setup.

Installing CS2Premium upgrade onto new laptop with Windows 8

I am trying to install a Creative Suite 2 Premium upgrade onto a new laptop with Windows 8. The upgrade is from Photoshop 5.0, which I also have the original discs for, but is not installed on this new laptop. Therefore, the upgrade is not being recognized. I tried putting the 5.0 disc in and having the installation search for it as verification, but that wasn't working. I realize both of these programs are ancient, but they are what I have. So be it. :-) Can someone help me figure out how to get my CS2 upgrade to install?

Hi tensuns,
You can download the CS2 Setup from the below mentioned link also please use the serial key mentioned in it.

Migrate from XP to new machine with Vista

Could someone please describe how to do this?
I have backed up the catalogue on an external drive, and installed LR onto the new machine.
However,searching on here there is advice to copy the preview and thumbs files,which I cannot find.
Also my presets etc, where should i copy them to? On the xp machine ther are in user name/app data/Lightroom
o the new machine there is no lightroom folder in username/app data.
Really confused please help!
Phil

Ok Guys (and gals)
All seems to be well ;-)
I made sure that my images were in the same directories..a little easier because the are on an external drive...however the drive was recognised as G and not H. So after some fiddling in the admin tools to rename it, all was ok.
The thing that was puzzling me is that the directories in username/application data/lightroom (where the presets etc are stored in XP) have changed in Vista.
As others said they are now User name/application data/Roaming/lightroom...but the files are not created until after you first launch LR.
So I copied the previews folder and catalogue from My Pictures in XP to username/pictures in Vista, which seems to be the default location.
Then clicking the catalogue file opens LR with that catalogue.
There are no user presets as yet,but once LR has been started the file location is username/app data/roaming/lightroom/presets.
Copy all the presets there.
Then I went through the other files and ensured that I copied any other usefull info,such as preferences,metadata presets, export presets,from the existing folders into the new.
All i had to do then was re set up my id plate, export presets and go through all the options to make sure all was well.
The only issue is that I have one directory on my hard drive that is not recognised. Some images were on D,on a partitioned hard drive (C and D). Now I have one drive C.
But the catalogue still has the folder and the previews so its no hastle just to browse to the new location to fix it.
So yaaaay! Now just the ballache with Vista (I hope not)
One final note...called LR tech support for help and was told an email would be sent with the full info what to do. After quite some hours no mail....another call revealed no case id and nothing recorded. Hmmmmm...
Thanks all who replied and hope this helps others

Can't get adobe reader to install on my new laptop with windows 8

I can't get adobe reader to install onto my new laptop with windows 8. Basically what happens is that I start the download from the adobe screen by clicking the yellow download button, then I click run (I've also tried save and run), then I allow the program to make changes to my hard drive, and then finally a blank grey box appears in the in the middle of the screen, titled "adobe reader installer". After this box appears nothing else happens. I've let it sit for at least 30 minutes and still nothing. I've also disabled my pop up blocker, and set the security settings to default as suggested in other posts. Unfortunately this is the only pdf program that works for the site we have to use to write contracts, so I need to get this figured out asap. Thanks in advance for any help and advice.
