Upgrade or full version?

Ok FCE expert users, I'm in the process of getting my 1st intel mac and want to know if there's compatibility issues if I buy the upgrade version of Final Cut Express 4 to upgrade my FCE 1.01 compare to buying the full version. The reason for this is I heard from people working in the apple store that if I move my FCE 1 to an intel machine there may be some compatibility issues with the machine and I don't want to be where if I install v1 and then install the upgrade 4 that it will not work flawlessly with the new machine.

You don't need to install version 1. You just need the serial number from version 1 as you install the upgrade.

TS1702 I just upgraded a full version of "ISO Fits" app from App Store 2 days ago but the upgrade wasn't successful. I reported the problem to the developer but had not received any reply. What should I do?

1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
How much free space on it now?

Why is it that free games are usually require to purchased the upgrades or full version not free at all?

Why is it that free games are usually require to purchased the upgrades or full version not free at all?

Cause the people that developed them didn't do it out of the goodness of their hearts, they did it to make money.
I don't go for many games, but one thing to look for is a lot of 'top in app purchases' then read the reviews.
they kinda fall under a technicality, the shell of the game IS free, but content isnt'. Just like the app to read a magazine is free, but the actual magazines aren't.
And i'm sure the app store loves to see so many 'free' signs on the cover, so they can advertise taht there are tons of free apps...which technically there are and they're not lying. Not until you did into it do you see that free app is not the same as free app with free content.

Queries related to Redwood Installation / Upgrade to Full version

Hi All,
We Need some help.
We have couple of question related to redwood installation, kindly help us.
We have SAP Central Process for Scheduling (Redwood 6.0.2.7) basic version installed on our Unix server.
We are now planning to migrate to the SAP CPS full version and have already procured the license. SAP added the installables at the marketplace under - Installation and upgrades - My Application components - SAP Partner products - SAP CPS Scheduler (Full) after the procurement. We have downloaded the installables now.
My questions are:
1. How do we now upgrade the Redwood OEM version to full version? Because, we had mailed to SAP with the OEM license to change it to full version, but then SAP replied to us asking us to send them the full version license. How do I get that? Does this file (register.txt) gets created once we start the installation of Redwood full version? Because we had assumed that by buying the full version license, we would just need to send the OEM license and it would be changed to a full version, but its not so. How do we go about from here. Do we do a new installation and uninstall the basic version?
2. Also, if we are to do a new installation, how do we get the register.txt file which we need to send to SAP for key generation?
We are very new to Redwood. Any pointers would be highly appreciated.
Awaiting your response.
Thanks in advance.
Warm Regards
Rajeet

Upgrade or Full Version-Photoshop Elements

It appears that the upgrade to Photoshop Elements 12 is more expensive than the full version. Is there any reason I shouldn't just purchase the full version? Will my files transfer?

Thank you. After a frustrating conversation with sales at Adobe ( wanted to sell me a subscription) I found the full version download even cheaper at Amazon.
Thanks for your help.

FCPS upgrade or full version?

Hello!
I got Final Cut Studio 2 unused from a friend - I already had Final Cut Production Suite on my Mac installed. After installing it, I had no problems (despite with importing AVCHD 720p/50 clips).
Now I'm wondering, is the FCS2 version I got a full version or an upgrade? In other words, can I get rid of the old Production Suite?
The serial number sticker says: Final Cut Studio 2.0.1 Retail
The sticker on the box says: MA 886 D/A (not sure, the "6" ist hardly readable)
Has anybody an idea how to make sure its not only an upgrade and I will have to keep the old SN?
How do the SN stickers look for known full or upgrade versions?
Thanks

...oh thanks! Never had that idea before thrillcat O.o
And what will that proof, other than that the final product on my mac will be FCS2? I'm asking if someone can confirm that on an upgrade version the stickers are different.
How hard is it to just answer the question?

Purchase upgrade or full version?

Since I've upgraded to a new MacPro, Aperture has been misbehaving (exporting problems, freezes, slowness) even though I did a clean install of the the app on my new machine. Will the upgrade version of Aperture 2 fix my problems or should I buy the full version? The trial version I downlaoded works great. The upgrade version looks good to me so my projects and folder stay organized, etc. I'm not clear as to whether or not the upgrade version will debug the App for me. Any thoughts? Thanks.

I did the upgrade using the trial version. Seems to me that the result is a clean install of Aperture 2 -- indeed the 1.5.6 version of Aperture is still on my hard drive.
So, if the trial works for you just buy the upgrade key and you should be fine.
Before doing that, make sure you copy your library just to be safe. I assume you've already renamed your 1.5.6 version of Aperture as they instruct you to do. Then, once you buy and enter your key for the trial, just change your preferences for the library location and point it to your real library rather than the trial one. (Or, right click on the library and select Aperture 2 to open it). Once you do that that particular version of your library will be converted to Aperture 2. But, you still have a copy of the one that was created with the older version of Ap 2, just in case.

Buy upgrade or full version of LR 4?

I lost my LR 3 software, but still have the serial number. Should I buy the upgrade or the full version of LR 4?

Yes, even with that.
LR4 does not require an installation, but checks validity of the previous LR3 serial number, when a LR4-upgrade serial no is entered instead of a full LR4-serial.
This is done vs. a database at Adobe.
It is somewhat different than with Photoshop, where you need to disable your previous version first, in order to reuse its serial for anything else (be that an installation on another comp or an upgrade serial). Yes, less secure on Adobe's side, but no hassle if a comp has broken down before being able to disengage the old serial.
I guess they would detect if 2 LR4-upgrade serial numbers would be installed with the same LR3-serial, so the second one would not be successful.

Yes.

CS3 - is it upgrade or full version?

Hi guys! I have bought CS3 on eBay and had the licence transferred to me. The seller told me that this was full version of CS3. But when I try to install from DVD, it tells me that this is an upgrade and I have to enter the serial no. of previous versions (7.0, CS or CS2). Can you definitely tell me what version do I have? The sticker on the box says DVS/A.PHSP.10.0.WIN.GEN.UE.W/SENSOR and there's a number - 90081623.
cheers,
Piotr

Piotr,
Based on Dec9's comment, it sounds like an upgrade.
However, you state:
had the licence transferred to me.
Did the seller furnish you with the "official" Adobe license transfers. There is paperwork involved, and did you get that? What does it say? Adobe makes it easy for a seller to transfer a license legally to another, and there is necessary paperwork involved. You should be, first able to see how Adobe noted the software, and if there is confusion, then will have something to use, when you contact Adobe C/S on licensing/Activation issues. Or, you'll have paperwork to use against the seller when you contact eBay.
Good luck,
Hunt

SO upgrade to full version

Hi,
I just installed Solaris Express build 69, with StarOffice 8 coming along with the installation. I want to upgrade this evalution version to the full version with the license key I purchased earlier.
However, I can't seem to find the proper place to enter the license key.
The manual says:
1. In any StarOffice application, choose Help � Purchase StarOffice.
2. If you already purchased your license key, click Next.
But there is no such thing as "Help � Purchase StarOffice".
Somebody got any ideas?
Thanks, Abraham

Win 7 upgrade or full version (what's the difference anyway?)

I mean, if you get the upgrade version you can also do a clean install so you have this brand new computer again (if you wish to go that way)
This will be the same as with a full version, will it not?
the only difference being that an upgrade will be cheaper or free because you already have a licence number.
I don't get the fuss, maybe it's my shortcoming???

The functions that comes to mind that the upgrade from Lenovo has that the RTM/Retail doesn't are Lenovo provided discs, RnR, and the Lenovo Care Blue Button.

Snowleopard upgrade and full version

I have macbook with leopard. I want to upgrade it into snowleopard. But I found 2 types of dvd, upgrade version and full version. What is the differences and advantages between full and upgrade? If I buy the full version, could I install it in my mac(leopard)? Because I found more easily the mac box set (full version) that is cheap.
Thanks

The 10.6.3 white retail disk (so called "upgrade disk") sold online at Apple are full version disk of OS X Snow Leopard, however it also has a upgrade installer for OS X versions 10.4 and 10.5.
So if you boot the Mac into 10.4/10.5 and stick the DVD in and double click the upgrader, it will replace 10.4/10.5 with 10.6.3 and leave your programs and files alone.
If you stick the same disk in and boot the machine while holding c or option/alt key down (wired/built in keyboard) you get the opportunity to use Disk Utility (and others) and can erase the entire drive and then install OS X 10.6.3 Snow Leopard fresh. However this disk is sans-free iLife, but can be reinstalled via the 10.5 machine disks.
I don't know the specifics of the full version of the Snow Leopard install disks as I never used them, or what particular advantage they have (free iLife?), but if it requires a erase and install, then that's a disadvantage obviously as you can't carry over your already installed 10.5 programs.
OS X 10.4/10.5 need to upgrade, 10.6.8 ok still
