Transfer OSX License? And second HD question.

I'm getting ready to sell my G4 and had a couple of questions. I did some searching with in the forums, but didn't find a clear answer. First off, do I have to transfer my Tiger license after a reinstall for the to-be owner? I don't want the serial to be tied to my name on someone else's computer. What are the steps? Secondly, I'm wiping both hard drives. I'm obviously doing the second HD first, but once I reformat it can I do the main and hope OSX will recognize it afterwards? I hope I'm being clear enough, it's sort of late...

Licenses and second NTP servers

I know that changing the first NTP server will affect the license for UCCX and CUCM. Is this true for adding or modifying the second NTP server?
I want add a second NTP server and I want to avoid re-licensing.
Thank you!

If its version 9.X or 10.X then it should not as license are tied with ELM/PLM:
Ref: https://supportforums.cisco.com/document/115166/licensing-architecture-cisco-unified-communication-manager-cucm-version-9x-faq-live#Q:_What_are_the_benefits_of_this_licensing_structure_over_the_previous_DLU_structure
In case of VMWARE, use 8 to 9 parameters to generate a license MAC. Even if you change any one of the parameters, such as NTP Address or the Time Zone, the license MAC will change. Then, you need to procure new licenses. However, with this Enterprise License Manager in place, even if you made those changes you do not have to worry about the licenses. There is a product instance that has already been added to the ELM. Even if you make any changes, it will grab the required license from ELM.
If its CUCM version 8.X then also it shouldn't technically as licensing is tied with NTP1 and NTP 2 is not mentioned:
Ref: http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Licensing_Model_for_Virtualized_UC_Applications
A License MAC is in the same format as a physical MAC address, i.e. a 12 digit hexadecimal value, but it is generated by hashing the following user-configured parameters:
Time zone
NTP server 1 (or “none”)
NIC speed (or “auto”)
Hostname
IP Address (or “dhcp”)
IP Mask (or “dhcp”)
Gateway Address (or “dhcp”)
Primary DNS (or “dhcp”)
SMTP server (or “none”)
Certificate Information (Organization, Unit, Location, State, Country)

BT Infinity - HG612 and second router question

Hi,
I've got an odd question. I have BT Infinity and have the HG612 VDSL modem. Does anyone know if and how it can be configured to bridge its WAN connection to another router? For work I need site-to-site VPN access, which is performed by this other router. Unfortunately it needs to own the WAN address, so I need to configure the HG612 to bridge the address with it. Has anyone does this? Is the HG612 even capable of doing this?
I can't find any user manuals on it.
Thanks,
Simon

Hi Andy and welcome
In THIS POST Phil recently wrote.-
"Very proud of myself this afternoon. I'm not much of an expert when it comes to DIY but I have managed to hardwire the router from the back of my house to the office on the first floor at the front. After much contemplation, I decided to buy some external cat5e cable and run this along the same points as the SKY feed. The result looks pretty good and I can now get 37.5Mbps upstairs as well as down. Result."

Licensing and other cost questions.

I'm a layman at the licensing thing, we are a publishing company looking at publishing our material digitally and want to create a custom reader.
Clearly Adobe DPS is the best way to go for this, since our content is all created in Adobe inDesign.
What I want to find out is what is the total additional costs required to be able to have our own reader that publishes to andriod ipad and desktop?
Are there annual licensing fees? Are there royalty costs for our material?
Thanks in advance.

Generally speaking you pay a monthly or annual license fee for the DPS software, and a per-download fee for each issue downloaded by your readers. See https://helpx.adobe.com/digital-publishing-suite/help/digital-publishing-suite-pricing-opt ions.html.

Archive creates empty MAC OSX folders and second folder with documents...

I have been sending .zip documents to customers for some time. I archive using the ctrl + click method (choosing CREATE ARCHIVE...)
Customers have been saying that they can't find the files, that the folders are empty. I didn't know what they were talking about...until I archived a folder, transfered it to a LACIE external hard drive on the Ethernet network, decompressed it and saw what they were talking about! What is that MAC OSX folder? Why does CREATE ARCHIVE create 2 folders with the document in one of them? I frankly don't get it. The external drive we have is a LaCie Mini 250 MB formatted in ext 3 (Linux?) before it was formatted HFS+ but it created problems and the LaCie technicians suggested that we format the disk in Ext 3 (Ext 3, 13 35, I don't quite remember). The disk was originally formatted in Fat32 (Windows) which didn't work (filenames, unable to copy or delete, etc).
Is CREATE ARCHIVE the problem? or is it network disks which are PC disks or PC-originally-intended disks?

Hi, Louis. Welcome to the Discussions.
See my post here and the related comments concerning Create Archive in that topic. I believe that will help you understand what's happening.
Good luck!

Mac OSX License and System Restore

Hi!
I have a Macbook 5.2 bought in 2009. The default OS is Leopard. When Snow Leopard was put on the market, a friend of mine bought a 4-licenses copy of Snow Leopard and gave me one of these 4 licenses.
Some month ago I decided to buy a copy (single) of snow Leopard for me, just to have it if necessary, without asking the license number to my friend. Yesterday I restored the Macbook system to the factory settings using the default OS (the Leopard cd found in the box) and after that I upgraded to Snow Leopard with my new copy. Suddenly, this unexpected massage appeared: “you are using this license on three different computers” (or something very similar).
I really don’t understand! It was the first time I restored the system. And, anyway, with another copy of Snow Leopard!
Now I want to sell my Macbook and buy the new Macbook Pro. I’d like to sell the Snow Leopard license to, but now I don’t know if it’s a good idea…
Can someone give me some suggestions?
Thank you so much!
Manu

Your friend should not have given you the Snow Leopard license unless he knew it was one he could really give. You should buy an individual license for Snow Leopard and sell the CD of Snow Leopard with the computer. It should look like * and not say Upgrade, Dropin, or OEM. Also before selling the machine, read my FAQ*:

Facetime works with MacBook 1 and second Macbook, question is -- How ?

I have a Macbook, in Ottawa Canada, My mac has internet provided by rogers, (at home). My niece in Victoria has a Macbook, internet provide is a western provider, Not rogers. I can facetime her because I have her email account in my contacts.... Question is < and maybe this forum is not the scope for the question> How does one Mac in Ottawa communicate via Facetime with another Mac. The only thing is the email address to go by. If someone can explain how that works that would be great.

If you mean to ask about the technical mechanisms involved in a FT connection, see this topic:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11752614
If you are only asking generally about how the email address is used, I will offer my best guess, The email address is apparently added to Apple's FT server database during activation. When FT invitation is initiated, that database could then direct the calls using the associated FT device information.

Server 2012 Standard license and VM license for windows instances

Hi,
A question about VM instances on standard server 2012 license exists here
I cannot link it here as my account is not verified. The topic is titled "Windows Server 2012 Standard License and VMs"
My question is tad different...
If I understand this correctly, 1 windows server standard license provides support for 1 Physical Operating System Environment (The VM Host / POSE) and permission to run 2 Virtual Operating System Environment(VOSE).
Does this imply that I can install 2 additional instances of Windows Server 2012 Standard Edition on the permitted 2 VM instances on the server? Or... should I purchase additional licenses for each VOSE that runs windows?
Does the standard license provide rights to run 2 Virtual instances AND offer install and activation rights for 2 MS windows (virtual) environments AND install and activation rights for the windows host?
If license is require for each instance of server 2012 running on the VM ... can I avoid purchasing additional licenses for operating systems, say, if I run 2 Centos operating system instances in 2 VOSE?
Please help!
Thanks.

Licensing questions should be asked of a trained Microsoft licensing specialist. I haven't seen one of those lurking in this forum. www.microsoft.com/licensing.
That said, licenses are assigned to the physical host, not to VMs. The License you assign to the host grants you the "right to run" addition virtual operating system environments running Windows Server. It does not grant you additional licenses.
Licensing for Microsoft Windows Server operating system is controlled by Microsoft. Licensing for any other operating system is not covered by the virtualization rights of the Windows Server operating system. Therefore, if the CentOS virtual machines
are properly licensed by whoever licenses them, you can run however many instances that license allows.
A single Standard Edition license can be installed on the physical host granting you the right to run up to two virtual instances of Standard Edition. However, if you run additional services, such as file services or Active Directory or IIS, etc.,
on the physical instance, that means you can only run one additional virtual instance of Windows Server.
Free advice is worth every cent.

It's possible to transfer licenses but it must be done by contacting a Customer Service representative by phone or web chat. They'll probably have you submit a form.

Licensing and transfer of software from One PC to Another

So there is an ongoing question in my mind about how the copies of office licensed through dell with the purchase of a PC can be used. It seems that some think you can transfer that license to a new computer and others think that you can not. Now I have
read the confusing ULA and all the contradicting opinions from different online sources and I would just like some clarification.
The ULA says this under OEM:
“How can I use the software? The software is licensed, not sold. Under this agreement we grant you the right to run one copy only on the computer with which you acquired the
software (the licensed computer) for use by one person at a time, but only if you comply with all the terms of this agreement. Our software license is permanently assigned to the licensed computer. “
It then states in the very next paragraph:
“Can I transfer or reassign the software to another user or computer? You may not transfer the software to another user. You may transfer the software directly to a third party only as installed on the licensed
computer, with the Certificate of Authenticity label and this agreement. Before the transfer, that party must agree that this agreement applies to the transfer and use of the software. You may not retain any copies. You may reassign this software license to
a different computer any number of times, but not more than one time every 90 days. If you reassign, that other computer becomes the “licensed computer.” If you retire the licensed computer due to hardware failure, you may reassign the license sooner.”
A clear answerer explaining what these items mean and why they seem to say the exact opposite thing from someone would be nice. Maybe a Microsoft employee or Licensing expert could help out.
Thanks,
Brett

Questions re: GPIB-ENET, LabView 5 and 7, license and Win XP

We have a full development version of LabView 5.0 on a Win 98 SE machine, and just acquired a GPIB-ENET box that came with Solaris drivers. I loaded the GPIB and VISA software on LabView 5.0 and tried to connect to test the setup to no avail. It appears that all of the drivers are present. I believe that my problem is that I can�t get the IPAssign network driver bound to the 3Com ethernet card. When I load it in network properties, it doesn�t offer any hardware to bind to it. If I run IPAssign anyway, it claims the only networking hardware available is dialup, and sits forever (probably waiting to connect to a dialup line).
The ultimate plan is to upgrade to LabView 7, and install it with the GPIB-EN
ET box on a Win XP system. I have a demo version of 6.1, so I loaded that on the XP machine and tried again. LabView 6.1 appears to be missing drivers for GPIB-ENET, and looking through the knowledge base tells me a driver bug leaves Win XP incapable of assigning an IP address to GPIB-ENET anyway.
My questions are:
1. Should it be possible to get LabView 5.0 with 98SE talking to the older GPIB-ENET box, at least to set the IP address? Is this failing because I need to download the license (p/n 778258-02)?
2. If I order LabView 7 and install it on Win XP, will I still need to download the license to run it, or is that included in version 7?
3. Once I get LabView 7 and the driver and the license (if necessary) will I be able to assign the IP address with this setup?
4. If the answer to #1 is �yes, with a license� and to #3 is �no�, then can I download the license, use it to assign an IP address on LabView 5 and transfer it to LabView 7/ Win XP when I get it to use the GPIB-EN
ET box?
Thanks.

Hello,
Which version of the GPIB drivers are you using? We recommend using NI-488.2 v2.0 for your GPIB-ENET device (for Windows XP and Windows 98).
1. Should it be possible to get LabView 5.0 with 98SE talking to the older GPIB-ENET box, at least to set the IP address? Is this failing because I need to download the license (p/n 778258-02)?
A: If you have version 2.0 of the drivers, you should be able to assign the IP okay. Do you see a pattern in the LEDs flashing? Check the READY LED and see if you see a pattern, as this indicates an error code. The following formula can be used to find the error code:
error code= (long flashes-1)(short flashes-1)example: 3 long flashes, and 9 short flashes = (3-1)(9-1) = 28
If the READY LED does not stop flashing, it indicates that the GPIB-ENET does not have a valid IP address assigned to it. According to this KB:
The problem is the Ethernet address. The field for the Ethernet address in the IPAssign Utility is meant for the last four digits of the Ethernet address on your GPIB-ENET (the first part of the address is the same for all GPIB-ENETs, so it is pre-filled for you). If you run the IPAssign Utility again and fill in the last four digits of your GPIB-ENET's Ethernet address (in the format: xx:xx), then you should be able to assign it an IP address successfully.
More details: The Receive LED flashes because the Ethernet header for the packet is correct and the GPIB-ENET recognizes that; However, the header was actually duplicated when you entered the Ethernet address in the IPAssign Utility, so it did not match the exact Ethernet address of that particular GPIB-ENET. The only numbers that need to be entered into the Ethernet address field in the IPAssign Utility are the last 4 numbers in the format: xx:xx.
Note: The user must decide what the IP address is going to be. Your IT department could probably help.The Ethernet Address however, is statically programmed into each ENET. It's usually labeled at the bottom of the unit.
Also, refer to this KB regarding some IP issues we've had with some of the older GPIB-ENET devices.
2. If I order LabView 7 and install it on Win XP, will I still need to download the license to run it, or is that included in version 7?
A: You should uninstall and reinstall NI-488.2 v2.0. If you already have this driver, you will not need to re-license it. The driver is not included with LabVIEW 7.0 by default.
3. Once I get LabView 7 and the driver and the license (if necessary) will I be able to assign the IP address with this setup?
A: You should be able to assign the IP fine. Look at the response for first question above to make sure you are assigning the IP correctly.
