Software running in trial until other versions uninstalled

I tried to install creative cloud software but I got an error that says "Adobe Acrobate IX will run in trial mode until you uninstall previous versions of the software." I'm not sure what this means because I quite literally turned on this computer that I'm trying to install to for the first time ever.
However, I do have a corporate subscription to CC, and I have installed the software on my primary workstation. This is a laptop, and I'm pretty sure I can be logged into two machines similtaneously? If not, I can certainly have at least two installations.
Can anyone shed some light on the specifics that I'm not picking up on here?

I closed out of creative cloud on my new machine. On my primary machine I ran creative cloud updates to all software. Relaunched creative cloud on my new computer and everything seems to be working perfectly.

Running Elements 9 when other versions don't exist.

I am trying to run Photoshop Elements 9 on a machine which was the original machine I installed the software. When I try to run the program, I am told that there are 2 previous installations and I can not run the program until I deactivate one of the installations. I have checked all my computers and only 1 has elements loaded. How can I run the program when I cann't deactivate any other version of the program?

When I download the CC suite will it clash with the CS6 trial version I currently have running. Do I need to uninstall it first? I am running OSx Mavericks

I just bought a new Mac and migrated my CS6 over. Now when I open it, I'm told I'm running a trial version of Cloud. Why can't I use my CS6 version that I purchased? I don't want to pay for something I've already bought.

Here's how to convert the Trail to Permanent:

I am running a TRIAL VERSION of Adobe Photoshop CS6 Extended and Bridge does not open. Help?

I am running a TRIAL VERSION of Adobe Photoshop CS6 Extended on MAC and Bridge does not open. It did open when I first downloaded it - but now a black question mark is over the BR icon and it does not open up. Any ideas from anyone?

Hi Steve -
I just thought it was interesting and helpful to me to learn that the icon for Bridge does not appear anywhere. Not in Application Folder. Not in the Finders Directory Files. I see your point - if I could locate that icon - I'd be set by dragging it onto my DOCK and launching it from there.
So - I'm assuming I need to uninstall CS6. Please list all the steps for me to uninstall so that I don't miss any CS6 files.
When I search in FINDER for CS6 uninstall- I see two icons - red adobe "UNINSTALL ADOBE PHOTOSHOP CS6" (both files are identical) Under KIND they both say Alias - with two different dates they were last opened (in November - few minutes apart). Is that what I use to uninstall completely all the files related to PS CS6 Extended as well as Bridge?
Do I need to DEACTIVATE ANYTHING ANYWHERE?
DOES ANYTHING NEED TO GO INTO TRASH.
I just want to make sure 'everything' related to CS6 Extended is off my computer and out of all the files. In the event i want to re-install - naturally I don't want to run into any conflicting 'issues'.
Do you think if I reinstall I will run into this same problem again (BR not launching)? Is there anything I can do to prevent it? I note on the forums - going a few years back - that there have been a lot of issues related to this same problem - even in other versions of the Creative Suite. Is Adobe doing anything to rectify this problem for us Photoshop CS Suite lovers or is all their focus just going into CC?
Thank you so much for trying to help me resolve this issue. It is very frustrating to have an Adobe product that is not completely functional. Especially when the Creative Suites are so expensive. I appreciate all the time you've put into this issue.

i am currently running a trial version of indesign. i am trying to make a cd booklet. when i open a new document and try to find 'compact disc' in the document presets, it isn't there. all i have for options are 'default and custom'. is it possible to open the 'compact disc' preset from a trial version?

Are you sure, Eugene? I have this option:

I am trying to run a trial version of aperture 3.1, I have in the past run an earlier trial version and found it unsatisfactory, so neverwent ahead with the purchase. Now when I try to trial run the current version, I keep getting "trial expired" messages

I am trying to run a trial version of aperture 3.1, I have in the past run an earlier trial version and found it unsatisfactory, so I never went ahead with the purchase. Now when I try to trial run the current version, to see if it has improved on my system, I keep getting "trial has expired" messages.

I believe that Apple and most other vendors allow only one free trial.
You could call 1-800-SOS-APPL and ask customer support.

Beta 4 ver 6 installed on Mac Snow Leopard 10.6.4 will not run, will not delete, cannot reinstall any other version of mozilla, also mozilla help is useless and too confusing, is there not just a simple email address to ask for help?

Firefox tries to run, mac says name too long. It will run only when mounted but will not run from Applications. It refuses to delete and stays in trash, must use combinations of DropNuke2 and Trash to get it to delete I think! Then when trying to put any other version of Firefox in Applications, Finder states name already exists then refuses to move the Firefox application to APplications! Never had problems with Firefox until installed the stupid beta 4 ver 6!

It turns out that there's something wrong about permissions.
Here's the fix:
(1) log in as the +root user+
(2) type +chown -R Michael:staff ~Michael+
(3) log out the +root user+
(4) log in your account
(5) done!
Hope this thread will help those who encounter the same problem as me!

I am running my first time machine backup onto a Western Digital MyBook Live. It is taking forever. Is there antivirus software running in the background or any other settings I need to change to speed it up? Also I am on a wireless network.

I am running my first time machine backup onto a Western Digital MyBook Live. It is taking forever. Is there antivirus software running in the background or any other settings I need to change to speed it up? Also I am on a wireless network.

The initial Time Machine backup can certainly take a long time over wireless. Days, possibly. It's impossible for anyone here to be able to predict how long it will take, and wireless environmental conditions can change at any time.
Is there antivirus software running in the background
Only you can determine that. If you're using third party AV software, anything is possible.
NAS devices may not be compatible with Time Machine, regardless of what their manufacturers may claim. Even after the Time Machine backup completes, your backup may be unreliable. You may not discover that until you need to rely upon the backup for some reason, and corruption can occur months or years from now.
Time Machine supports the following backup configurations:
A locally mounted volume
Time Capsule
A volume resident on a USB hard disk connected directly to a Time Capsule or current production AirPort Extreme Base Station.
That's it. Any configuration other than the above list places you in an experimental category. If your backup fails, you're on your own.

Is there a way to run Windows XP or other MS software on a MAC

Hi All,
Is there a way to format a partications HD to run Windows XP of other MS software. I specifically need to run Qick Books. Quick Books for MAC does not support multiple currencies. I have to have this feature.
Thanks
Paul

I've got a 2.4MHz Macbook 7.1 & I've been using Fusion to run Windows 7 Ultimate for quite a while now. I've got Win7 all updated, it shares my Macbook's network connection just like it had its very own, shares Mac folders so that those Mac folders (or even the entire Mac file structure, if I wanted to) are accessible inside Win7, & I can Copy [Cmnd-C] & Paste [Cmnd-V] info back & forth between the two OS's by just Cmnd-Tab switching back & forth between the two. Nearly seamless integration between the two.
My Windows 7 actually works better & more problem-free on my Mac, in fact, than any Windows I've ever had running on any PC machine. Believe it or not. Just as fast too, if not faster. And I don't think I have EVER seen one of those mean nasty little Windows popup messages with text and a "So whatya wanna do, bucko?" question in 'em that only a Redmond software engineer could understand.
A couple of caveats though......
Hard drive space: Lots of it. Not knowing how much it'd take, I initially set the space my Win7 would take up on my Mac at 60GB, though Windows 7 itself is now taking up only 37GBs inside that initial 60GB allotment. I haven't yet discovered how to make that allotment size smaller, to 40GBs for example, without maybe messing something up, & I don't have the harddrive space to duplicate the 60GB file as backup. Gotta break out my external drives I guess.
And in addition to the 60Gigs of static, unchangeable space it takes up on my Mac's SSD, it uses another quarter Gig or so of my SSD's free space for its virtual memory requirements (see the Activity Monitor screenshot below).
RAM: Lots & lots of that, too. Right around 2.25GBs of Real RAM Memory it uses. I outfitted my Macbook with 8GBs though, so running Win7 along with 6 to 10 other Mac apps, including Photoshop, is usually not a problem. Close with that many other apps, but usually not a problem.
If VMWare Fusion looks like a good way to you for you to get Windows 7 running on your Mac (personally, I think it's SO cool), I'd use Craigslist to find a good deal on a copy of Fusion. And Windows 7.
Here's a Google hitlist showing a nationwide Craigslist search result for people selling VMWare Fusion disks last month & this month. Looks like $25 or so bucks is all it'd take, on average:
site:craigslist.org mac OR macintosh AND "vmware fusion" AND "intext:2012-09" OR "intext:2012-10" -macbook
Happy Mac'in!

I have a MacBook Pro book running OS10.5.8 and need to upgrade to 10.7. Do I have to update all other versions inbetween or can I go from 10.5.8. directly to 10.7?

How do I upgrade my MacBook Pro from OS10.5.8 to the lastest software, which I believe is 10.7?
This is a company computer and the guy who had it before me never kept up with updates. Now I have some audio hardware whose software will only operate with 10.7. Do I have to upload all versions between 10.5.8 to get to the lastest firmware or can I go directly from 10.5.8 to 10.7? I've downloaded the 10.7 upgrade from the apple web site but when it finished downloading I received a message stating that I needed earlier software.
If I need to go through all of these other versions, where to I find them all and how many are there please?
Thanks

To upgrade from Leopard to Lion or Mountain Lion - you need to upgrade your current OS to Snow Leopard...
You can call Apple and order Snow Leopard and after you've upgraded to Snow Leopard, you can decide from there if you want to upgrade to Lion or Mountain Lion.
If you want to upgrade to Mountain Lion, click HERE to see if your Macbook is supported by ML.
good luck
