Transfer of Activation

So I just purchased a new computer, and with the work I do, sometimes it's easier to have two iterations of Photoshop running on two different computers. In other cases, someone in my family is using my computer, for something other than Photoshop, so I just want to sit at the other computer. So I installed CS2 Suite on the new computer, which went fine, then activated it, which it said went fine, then when I went to use the software it says I didn't have a properly registered software, or something to that effect. So I looked over the license agreement and it basically says you can have a copy on another machine, but you can only use one at a time...which after reading further, leads me to believe I have to de-activate the software on one computer before I can activate it on the other.... so in effect, I don't believe I can run on two machines at the same time.... I understand they are doing this to prevent somebody from installing it all over the place, but in effect they are preventing me from easily using the software---I have to de-activate and activiate the other install, kick my family member off the computer temporarily... I just want to sit down and do my work and this is a hassle.... Did I miss something?

Thanks for the info Rob.
I think I might be facing something else then if what you say is true. I installed CS2 Suite on computer #2, with the license key and same Name and Company Name, it accepted that, did the install, did the Activation process, which it accepted, saying the software was now active, and I was able to download and install updates too. But when I went to run the software (Photoshop), I got a message indicating my Name, Company Name and/or license didn't match the software and it shut down. (didn't give me any opportunity to enter anything either...)
So when I went to uninstall the software on computer #2, I came across the Activation procedure, and thought that's what my problem was (that Adobe was keeping some sort of system info on file and since the other computer had the current activiation, it wasn't letting me run it on the 2nd machine.
I was careful, too, in entering the same name and company name during the install to computer #2, checking it against what was in the Photoshop About....
I did an uninstall and installed it again, just in case I did something wrong, but that too got the same bad results...
Now I'm really stumped, I've wasted half a day so far, but thanks for the input.

  • Transfer Structure activation

    Hi all
    I need to execute a specific Infopackage in the Quality System . However , When i try to open the infopackage it gives a message saying " transfer structure not yet active " . When I go to the Transfer structure and try to activate it , i get a message saying " Cross Client customising not allowed " .
    Can anyone please help me resolve this issue . I am pretty new to BIW .
    Thanks & Regards ,

    hi,
    you have to transport the transfer structure/rule from Dev system. your QA is set to not allowed changes.
    to transport, logon to Dev system, transaction rsa1 >> transport connection >> choose 'object types' in left frame then find 'infosource' in middle frame and expand, click 'select object' and entry your infosource where the trasnfer structure belongs to. make sure the source system is marked in 'source system assignment' (click yellow box with X), choose 'in dataflow before' for grouping and collection mode 'manual'. expand the infosource, make sure the transfer structure is there and marked. create request and transport.
    hope this helps.

  • SC Item in Transfer process active - follow on document status not updated

    Hi Gurus,
        Follow on document is not updated in SRM after PO creation. Ours is classic scenario (SRM 5.5, ECC6.0) and passed thru the following steps - SC (FFT) created, document approved, sent to SoCo, purchaser assigned vendor and created PO, PO created in ECC.
    In SRM SoCo screen displays message 'PO created 45xxxxxxxxxx'  successfully. Checked the BE PO 45xxxxxxx that was created successfully.
    Ran BBP_GET_STATUS_2 and CLEAN_REQREQ_UP jobs. jobs finished successfully. But status is not updated in SRM. RZ20/SLG1 does not have any errors.
    BBP_PD shows following statuses:
         I105   Awaiting Approval         X
         I1021 Created
         I1038  Complete
         I1106  SC ordered
         I1129  Approved
         I1111 Item in Transfer process 
                        The last status I1111 is still active.
    Any advise are welcome. Not sure if I am missing any OSS Notes.
    Regards
    Viktor Paul

    Hi,
    1. Check in table BBP_DOCUMENT_TAB if the entry exists use CLEAN_REQREQ_UP program.
    2. If entry in the table not exists then check in transaction BBP_PD if the follow on document ( PO ) Number reserved for
    the SC .. then use FM  BBP_PD_SC_RESUBMIT.
    3. none of these use normal process  execute BBP_REQREQ_TRANSFER And then use CLEAN_REQREQ_UP

  • Can we run the Transfer rule activation in parllel ?

    HI All,
    As part of BI system refresh I need to activate the transfer rules for three of the source systems by tunning the report RS_TRANSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL . I have many systems and each one taking around 1-2 hours and my doubt now whether I can go for activating the rules parellely for all the source systems or it should be done one by one only.
    Appriciate you can answer with the justification.
    Thanks & Regards
    Rajesh Meda

    HI,
    Yes u can run them in parallel....
    Because U r activating the Transfer Structures in BI side....and these mappings are independent of the remaining systems..
    So these can be done parallellly.
    Hope this helps u..
    Best Regards,

  • Transfer rule activation

    Hello All,
    We have changed the transfer rule in test system and are trying to activate it manually using the std ABAP program.
    But I get an error that 'Transfer structure not generated in source system' and 'Manually activate the transfer rule'.
    I searched for this and found a SAP NOTE to be implemented for this issue. After BASIS implemented this note, I am still unable to activate the transfer structure/rule
    Kindly inform.
    Regards,

    Issue resolved!!!
    I disconnected the system, reconnected and generated the partner profile.  Then activated the source system in RSA1.
    This activated the transfer structure.

  • Transfer Rules - Activation Error

    When I trying to activate Transfer Rules, I'm keeep getting an error as "Error in source system", I could not able to track down to this error.
    Anyhelp is greatly appreciated. We have R/3 4.6c and BI 7.0.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Are running on 7.0 ver or 3.5 of bi, in case ur on 3.5 chk weather your data source is replicated as 3.5 or 7.0, in case you are working on 7.0 , then replicating the data source itself activated the "Transformation rules" (if created already), Scaheduling the DTP will do the job of staging.
    Hope this will be expedite

  • Transfer rule Activation failing

    hi
    I am trying to install the BCT transfer rule and activate it - but it fails saying there is syntax error for an infoobject.
    This is the error:
    <i>E:Field "L_TEXT" is unknown. It is neither in one of the specified tables nor defined by a "DATA" statement.</i>
    The BW version is 3.5.
    Any help would be well rewarded.
    thanks
    Esan

    Hi Esan,
    Check oss 913954
    Symptom
    A syntax error is reported in the transfer rules of some product InfoSources.
    For example:
    0PR_PURCHASE_CATEG_ATTR,
    0PR_BASE_UNIT_ATTR or
    0PR_ID_CMP_TEXT
    The syntax error occurs in the "two-digit source system" routines for determining the system ID. Error message: E: Field "L_TEXT" unknown.
    Other terms
    PR_BW, 0PR_PURCHASE_CATEG_ATTR, 0PR_BASE_UNIT_ATTR, 0PR_ID_CMP_TEXT,
    PRODUCT, L_TEXT
    Reason and Prerequisites
    The routine contains the "rs_bct_bupa_form_prod_syst" include but the global DATA statement is missing.
    Solution
    You must insert two new lines between the following two lines in the affected routines:
    Global code used by conversion rules
    $$ begin of global - insert your declaration only below this line -
    and
    $$ end of global - insert your declaration only before this line -
    The new lines are as follows:
    DATA:   l_s_errorlog TYPE rssm_s_errorlog_int,
            l_text TYPE string.
    Save the routine.

  • Transfer rules activation error after upgrade to BI 7 - DB Connect

    Hello all,
    We just upgrade our BW system to BW 7. Since that, we now have error when we want to activate Transfer Rules. Here is the error message:

    The strange thing is that the error occurs only to Transfer rules that are coming from a DB Connect source system (to all of them).
    We have kept the datasource in 3.5, we have not migrate them and would not like to do it if possible.
