No, they can be running different versions of OS X, but beware that any old PowerPC apps will not run with Mountain Lion.

  • I have an older version of Photoshop...3.5... I bought a new computer and it will not load. Can I get another of the same version? or do I have to buy a new one?

    I have an older version of Photoshop...3.5.  I bought a new computer and what I have will not load. I love this version. Can I get a new cd that will load into Windows 7? or do I have to buy a complete new program?

    No CD, but you can download the installation files if you have the serial number, and the previous install has been deactivated

    or
    Download Adobe CS5.5 Trials: Direct Links (no Assistant / Manager) | ProDesignTools
    If you are unable to deactivate the earlier installation, you wil need  to phone customer support and ask them to reset your activations.

  • Can I use flash drives to transfer data from one MBP to another at a differ

    I've looked and cannot find any info on the use of flash drives. Can I use a flash drive to transfer data from one MBP to another one at a different location? (ie; school Apple and home MBP) Grade tests and papers at home, enter data into home computer, then put it on flash drive and carry flash drive to school, transferring data to school desk top? Are certain flash drives preferrable over others, name brands, size, etc?

    Yep, you sure can. Just about any drive will work as mentioned above. But I'm partial to SanDisk and PNY. I've used both and they work great! Currently I carry both a 2GB SanDisk Micro Cruzer and a retractable 2GB SanDisk Cruzer, both really nice. Replaced my oldie but goodie 256MB PNY drive that I've been using since they first came out.

  • How do I transfer my checked songs from one computer to another - tried exporting library playlist etc but no luck! Please help! I have 26,000 songs - 17,000 are selected and I can't run down the list on my new computer and re-check 17,000 songs! Thanks!

    Make a smart playlist of your whole library but only checked songs - #4 on  http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1801
    Highlight all files in that playlist, then drag to the other drive.  This isn't preserving any playlists or whatever, just copying files from one drive to another.
    You might want to delete the smart playlist this once you are done because it will probably gobble up resources with that many files.

  • How to transfer music from one computer to another when they are at 2 diffe

    yes hi I was wondering how do i get music off of my one computer to another when they are in two different homes. they are both authorized to my account but i have music on one that i want on my other. can anyone please help.

    Hello!
    To have same library on both of your authorized machines, you need first locate, on both of them, the iTunes Media Folder location (Preferences > Advanced) then you need make them syncronized. How to do this, will exists some tools, I will not go further about that stuff, you can google them... back to topic:
    After you do any change to the files content of one library, you can just drag and drop the media folder on iTunes, it will rescan the library itself and update all changes you made.
    Be aware if your machines are authorized on multiple accounts, you need be logged on store with the account used to purchase any drm-enabled song you want to listen.

  • How can I interact between two different frames in the same indesign template as well as from one template to another.

    I am looking for the best way (or any way) to interact between two different frames in the same indesign template as well as from one template to another. It's for a DPS app which needs to carry some button initiated data from one page to another and then present it in a table.

    There is no simple way to do it, as itunes wont let you use it on another computer without wiping the contents first.
    However if you really want to transfer songs to another computer then you could try this;
    * make sure that your ipod is accessible as a disk drive (ipod options)
    * when you plug your ipod into the computer you want to transfer to make sure you select "no" or "cancel" when it asks to wipe the contents. Leave the ipod connected and quit from itunes.
    * go to "my computer" and access the ipod directly. You probably have to select "view hidden files" from windows. You will see a lot of folders with odd names like ZX838aff with similar named files inside.
    * copy these files to a folder on your computers hardrive. Now remove the ipod and start itunes.
    * import the files from the folder you made in the last step.
    * Now your music is on itunes, but with unrecogisable names.
    This is the only way I have found to do it, but there may be another way, say with an application to do the hard work for you.

    If you selected open a new Apple ID account, go back a step and enter use existing Apple ID.
    You will have to set up a separate iCloud account or your iPads will mirror each other.

  • SharePoint 365 Deploy App -- "another App with the same version and product ID."

    Hi all
    When I want to deploy App I got this message:
    2>Active Deployment Configuration: Deploy App for SharePoint
    2>  Skipping deployment step because a pre-deployment command is not specified.
    2>  Skipping the uninstall step because the app for SharePoint is not installed on the server.
    2>  Install app for SharePoint:
    2>  Uploading the app for SharePoint...
    2>Error occurred in deployment step 'Install app for SharePoint': The provided App differs from another App with the same version and product ID.
    If the App exist why it doesn't uninstall it. And also its not possible to Retract:
    Skipping the uninstall step because the app for SharePoint is not installed on the server.
    I solved my problem by changing ProductID manually but I don't want to make the server with dirty small apps.
    Any idea?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Check the Site URL in project properties to which the app is installed.
    You have to choose the right path first where the app is installed and then Build>Retract.
    Then change the path to new one and try build. It looks like you are trying to retract from wrong Site URL.
    Thanks

  • I can no longer (since upgrading to the latest firefox) open up multiple tabs of the same page (something I need to be able to do when emailing and referencing multiple emails while writing one email). The only option it gives me is to 'switch to tab'.

    Question
    I can no longer (since upgrading to the latest firefox) open up multiple tabs of the same page (something I need to be able to do when emailing and referencing multiple emails while writing one email). The only option it gives me is to 'switch to tab'.

    I'll try to make this clear. I USED to be able to left click on a hyper link and the hyper link would open in a NEW tab. Now for some unknown reason the hyper link by default opens in the same tab (window). I have to right click the hyper link in order for it to open in a NEW tab. (Yes, my 'tools'> 'options'> 'tabs' are set to "open new windows in a new tab." (Please no answers telling me to get rid of the Ask toolbar because I don't have one.) Thank you.

    I am Learning the Oracle JD Edwards ERP, so that i want to Practice it in my home.

    Thanks for the link, but not able to find JDE demo version for download.It's not quite as simple as 'click the download' button. You gotta get the infrastructure in place.
    As recommended, go to http://edelivery.oracle.com , click on Continue, fill the legal page, select JD Edwards for your OS, and start downloading. I would probably start and stop with the Installation document, since that likely has information such 'how much of the 60GB download is really required'.
    In the Oracle world, learning and practicing starts with reading.

  • We have multiple devices in our family.  On each iPad/iPhone each user has their own apple id for iMessage, Facetime and icloud, but we all sign in to the same apple id for itunes.  When one of my kids comments on my shared photostream, it shows my name??

    We have multiple devices in our family.  On each iPad/iPhone each user has their own apple id for iMessage, Facetime and icloud, but we all sign in to the same apple id for itunes.  When one of my kids comments on my shared photostream, it shows my name and not theirs as the commenter.  How do I fix that?

    CREATE A NEW USER
    Go to System Preferences --> Create a New User in Users & Groups
    Decide on whether to setup as Admin or Standard User.
    Switch to the New User by logging out under the Apple in the Menu Bar or use Fast User Switching
    Fast User Switching allows other users to leave current applications and windows open. Depending on RAM, you might need to log out rather than use FUS.

  • How does one add compilation CD's already mixed by the same artist.  I want to put them in their OWN spot under the artist and I want to NAME the album.  Is it possible?  Or am I just out of luck.  I've tried everything.

    I want to find out how to add my mixed CD's under the folder of the artist.  I want to save them on my computer in itunes.  I want to NAME the album, but so far I haven't been able to do that.  I named ONE and then ALL the rest of the CD's I am trying to save are put in the same place.  Very frustrating.
    These are mixed Christmas songs done by the same artist, and some are the same songs.  But the albums are separate.  Why can't I give an album I am exporting a name?

    Indeed, generally all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist. For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.
    Don't try to use sort fields to merge different things together as it quickly goes wrong. These should be used consistently to make all things with one value sort as if they had a different one, e.g. Bowie, David to make David Bowie sort under B.

  • I use Zoom Text as I am visually impaired and it is not compatable with Firefox 4. I need to go back to the earlier version of Firefox until this is handled by Zoom Text. How do I do that? Thanks, David

    I asked Zoom Text about this and this is what they had to say.
    "What is the specific version of ZoomText 9.1 you are using (In ZoomText click on Help -> About ZoomText -> Version)? Unfortunately the newer are supporting HTML5, Direct2D and other new hardware acceleration technologies designed to increase the speed and performance of web browsers. These new technologies bring new challenges for accessibility programs like ZoomText. More specifically, these technologies will have crippling adverse effects on ZoomText?s xFont, tracking and screen reading features.
    Therefore, at this time we are advising ZoomText users not to install or upgrade to Internet Explorer 9, as doing so will result in a loss of ZoomText functionality within Internet Explorer, and possibly a decrease in personal productivity. We do want to assure you that we are working on overcoming these problems and will provide a solution as quickly as possible.
    The other web browsers like Google Chrome, Safari, and Opera we do not have support for. The Firefox 4 with ZoomText you should have decent support for but not full support for it but you do have to have the updated version of ZoomText 9.19.1 and do the following as well http://www.aisquared.com/knowledge_base/more/zoomtext_with_firefox_4_loss_of_xfont/ for Firefox 4.
    You are best to use IE 8 or 7 now or Firefox 3 or you can try 4. Thanks."
    I am running the latest version of Zoom Text abnd the latest version of Firefox. I have done the "fix" suggested here but it had short lived relief if any. My preferred solution is to go back to running Firefox 3 until Zoom Text works around your new software updates.
    Hint: You would make a whole lot of visually impaired folks on this planet real happy if you got together with the Zoom Text people and worked this out in a lickity-split fashion.
    Thanks,
    David

    You might try using the add-on 'NoSquint' which allows numerous zoom options specific to each page you visit & keeps your settings - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nosquint/
    If you want to go back to 3.6x, you will find it here:
    http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    In most cases you can simply "upgrade" (meaning downgrade) directly from the installation. It would be a good idea to save your passwords & bookmarks just to be on the safe side.
