Updating 2 computers at the same time

My MacBook is running Leopard and my desktop is running Tiger. I'd like to upgrade both to Snow Leopard. What is the most efficient/cost effective way to do this?

A bootable clone is an exact copy of your system disk which is capable of booting your Mac. In order to create one you need to use either Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper. Once you have created one to be sure it was done correctly, you boot from the clone. If it boot you are ready to proceed.
Once you have a bootable clone, no matter what goes wrong recovery to a running system is simply a boot from the clone. Have one when I am undertaking a large system project always gives me warm fuzzy feeling know I can recover so quickly,

  • Is it possible to use 1 license on 2 computers at the same time?

    Hi,
    I've searched through the forums and found some points which cover part of my question, but I would just like to be absolutely clear on something.  If somebody is able to help, I would be extremely grateful.
    I have one CC license, and it is installed to a desktop PC. However I am often in meetings in different areas of the company's large site - overseeing photography, video shooting, working through designs with clients, etc. 
    Now I'm aware that I can use my one license to install Creative Cloud apps on 2 computers, but what I specifically want to know is if they can be used at the same time. 
    I would like the freedom of being signed on and working in, for example, InDesign in my office, but then if I have to shoot across the site to a colleagues office, to be able to take a laptop and work on a different document, maybe on a different app, maybe on the same app, without having to first log out of my desktop PC.  Does that make sense?
    Like I say, I've seen a number of posts which are clear about the possibility of having all apps on two systems, but a few things I've read have mentioned that both machines/apps cannot be in use at the same time. 
    Please can somebody clear this up?
    Thank you,
    -Ben

    Does that mean you have to sign out of creative cloud on one machine and sign back in to creative cloud on the other machine to be able to use it?
    No. You can be signed in to the Cloud (using the same Adobe ID) on two separate computers at the same time.
    If you want to activate the Cloud on a 3rd machine then you need to sign out of one of the other computers.
    Your issue on your home computer is unlikely to be related to signing in.
    Mac or Windows at home? Which operating system?

  • One again, "can I use CC on two computers at the same time?" - in practice.

    I know this has been asked before and all those threads are locked. Many asked the question, but I haven't found a satisfying answer yet.
    Can I multi task with CC?
    I want to have my laptop next to my desktop. And while I render, export or whatever my newly shot documentary on the laptop I want to work with a music video project on my desktop. Then when the render is finished I render the music video and go back to the laptop and continue on the documentary. Or maybe I just work 5 minutes on the desktop music video, then come up with something brilliant for the project on the laptop and switch. Back and forth. Will that kind of activity result in any kind of limitation, usage-wise?
    So, working on Premiere on my two computers at the same time.. is it possible? Technically? I know the EULA says "only one person". But will it let one person mutli task?
    I need to know this before I buy. sorry for asking this again, please bless me with a clear answer

    Hi Jimmy Crim,
    Yes in case of Creative cloud subscription you are allowed to install and use the cc apps in any two machines.
    Even if you want you care allowed to use these apps together in both the machines.
    Thanks

  • Can I upgrade my membership to use it with 4 computers at the same time?

    I have an Adobe membership and I am using it fine on my computer
    Now more people are joining and I am thinking of upgrading my membership to be used on 4 computers at the same time.
    Kindly advice if that is possible and how to do it.
    Regards,
    Issam

    Hi Issam
    Each user needs to have their own membership so they would each need to sign up using an unique Adobe ID.
    We also have Teams membership which provides additional storage and central management of the licenses - https://creative.adobe.com/plans
    Kind regards

  • Go to detail page and update record at the same time

    Hi guys,
    I`m very new to dreamweaver and have no coding skills, so
    please be gentle.
    I`m have created a mail box and it all works fine, the
    problem i`m having is that I want to be able to tag wether a
    message has been read or not.
    So the subject has to be a link so when someone clicks the
    subject you are redirected to the read message page and it displays
    the message in full.
    My question is there a way to go to detail page and update
    record at the same time?
    I`m using ASP and the mysql read or not field is a SET

    You can use the Update Record ZerverBehavrior and then have
    it redirect to
    the detailpage.

  • Will my whole itunes library be transferred to my new computer with home sharing,in other words will I be able to use bothe computers at the same time ? And will I have two copies of my all my playlists?

    Will my whole itunes library be transferred to my new computer with home sharing,in other words will I be able to use bothe computers at the same time ? And will I have two copies of my all my playlists?

    Hi there J1750oe,
    You may find the information in the article below helpful.
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4527
    Transferring playlists
    If you want not only your content but also your playlists to exist on your new computer, you will want to transfer a copy of all your playlists from your old computer. To do this, choose File > Library > Export Library on your old computer. Save the XML file that is created to your desktop.
    Send the playlists file to yourself as an e-mail attachment, use an external drive, or use file sharing to move the playlists file to your new computer. Once the file is on your new computer, open iTunes and choose File > Library > Import Playlist. The import process will remove any items from the playlists that you didn't share via Home Sharing.

  • HT201250 can I connect my gdrive to 2 computers at the same time

    can I connect my gdrive to 2 computers at the same time

    If you connect via FireWire, USB, eSATA, then trying to connect with 2 or more computers at the same time is the fastest way to corrupt you data on the disk.
    You can attach it to one and only one computer at a time and that is OK.
    You can attach it to one computer and then use System Preferences -> Sharing -> File Sharing to make the disk available to other computers.

  • How do I open the same ports on an Airport Extreme Base Station for multiple computers at the same time?

    As the title suggests...
    I have a mix of five Mac and PC's at home using an Airport Extreme Base Station as the router.   I need many ports opened on the AEBS for all of the computers- not just one computer.  (for example: three people want to play TF2 on Steam at the same time; each machine needs the correct ports open on the router).   Port forwarding  only allows me to forward a given port to a single IP, yet I need that port open for five differnt IP's, all at the same time. 
    How do I do that on an AEBS?
    In the same way, I have a small office of four iMacs using an old airport with the same exact issue.   I would like to be able to connect to all of them remotely with Apple Remote Desktop, but the port forwarding on the airport only allows a port to forward to a single IP.   I want to be able to tunnel into the office network and log onto any machine behind the Airport extreme... not just a single IP.    I currently have it set up where I can tunnel into the office from my house, I can find the one machine that the port forwarding has been assigned to, I can log on and everything is just fine... with one machine.    How do I open the firewall for the other machines? 
    TL,DR version:  How do you open ports on an Airport Extreme Base Station instead of forwarding ports?   Forwarding ports doesn't work for multiple IP's.  

    You can open a single or multiple ports to a single device or different ports to different devices, but you cannot open the same port to multiple devices via the AirPort Utility for the Apple routers.

  • How can I get my itunes library on multiple computers at the same time. I have 3 and an iphone 4S

    So I have my itunes library on a laptop and synced with my iphone 4S. I have a new laptop and a tower and I use all three computers. Is there a simple way to have all three computers sync the same itunes library, and the phone?

    No.
    Iphone will sync with one and only one computer a a time.  Syncing to another will erase the current content from the iphone and replace with content from the new computer.

  • File open on multiple computers at the same time

    Hello,
    I have noticed something peculiar. Whenever I open or save a file in Illustrator CC 2014, it shows as an open file on our server (as it should). Shortly thereafter, it not longer shows as open, thereby enabling another user to open it and edit it at the same time.
    What this means is, that 2-3-4 people can have the same document open, without knowing it, which could lead to some pretty annoying issues with content not being saved.
    Indesign does not behave in the same matter, since it creates a lock-file and keeps the file-handle open on the server.
    Is this by design, a bug or are we doing something wrong?
    Thanks!
    /Thomas

    How are you determining the file is open and in use, server utility or a utility on your platform (which one are you on)?
    This is by design so more than one user can work on the same file. For example we have a brand guideline in .ai format for each brand that everyone pulls elements from. On a new brand the guideline is updated and added to often by the brand guardian.
    InDesign last I heard is different and does not allow 2 people to open the same file. That makes sense since InDesign is a multi-page and Illustrator historically was only one page at a time until Artboards.

  • Use diferent programs in two computers at the same time on creative claud?

    Hello, I wonder if it is possible to use different programs with the same license at the same time on two computers on creative claud?

    Yes.
    This is covered in the Getting started section of the Creative Cloud FAQ at http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/faq.html.

  • Can you listen to iTunes on two computers at the same time?

    If I've got iTunes playing on one computer, is it possible to listen on another computer on the same network what's playing on the first computer? I've often got two computers on the go over two floors and it would be smart if they were playing the same music at the same time. Thanks for your help.

    Hi Andy, if you want to listen through remote speakers connected to an AirPort Express you can choose the remote speakers (or computer) from the pop-up menu at the bottom of the iTunes window
    However, to the best of my knowledge you can only listen to iTunes through one set of speakers at a time.

  • How to stop a file opening on two computers at the same time?

    in OS9, if a file was open, another computer on the network couldn't open it. Now in 10.4 we can have the file open on two computers and the first they know is when one goes to save it. We still want to access and edit the file across the network, just not at the same time. Is there a better way to do this?
    thanks

    Some applications take note of files being open in multiple locations. One great example is Circus Ponies Notebook, which warns a user opening a file if it is still open for another user.

  • Running pse on two computers at the same time

    I have installed pse 12 from the same disk on 2 computers.  One computer runs pse 12 and the other doesn't.  Is it because I'm only allowed to run the program on one computer at a time?

    Do you run pse 12 aat the same time on 2 macnines?
    No.  I must admit I don't have PSE12 yet.  I suggest wait for Barbara, Kelly or others who have PSE12 because they are in a better position to answer this than I am.
    Sorry for the confusion.
    BARBARA OVER TO YOU.
