What is my best upgrade option?

I have been using AA 1.5 in Windows for some time now. Not too long ago (couple of months) I downloaded the Mac beta version, which is now about to expire.
What I'd like to do is upgrade my Windows version as well as buy the upgrade for the Mac. Do you suppose there is any way I can do BOTH for the $100 upgrade cost? Or if not that, could I use the upgrade option twice, that is pay $200 to upgrade the Windows version as well as get the new verison for Mac?
Since it is permitted to install a purchased verison on two computers, can that be extended to two platforms?
Thanks for any advice,
David

I'm not in the office right now, but as soon as I get back, I'll try to follow up and determine if an existing license is applicable to multiple upgrades.  I suspect not, but I have no real knowledge of that.  I do know that a single license only applies to a single platform, so you wouldn't be able to use the same serial number to activate a Windows and Mac installation. 
I would recommend downloading the latest 30-day trial installations for each platform when your beta expires.

    I have 10.5.8 on a iMac.  What is my best upgrade OS option?

    Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.
    If it's a PowerPC Mac, it's already running the newest OS it can.
    If it's a Core Duo Mac, click here, install the DVD, and run Software Update.
    If it's a Core 2 Duo or better Mac, follow the Core Duo instructions, and if desired, open the Mac App Store, and try downloading 10.9. If you get told it's incompatible, go to the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
    Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC software such as Microsoft Office 2004. If you upgrade the OS, back up the computer first.

    Upgrading to Yosemite
    You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
    Upgrading to Yosemite
    To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.

    Hi,
    One of my clients has an environment similar to yours with an internal pair of F5s and a pair used for the access from the internet. 
    I am only going to focus on the method using an F5 Load Balancer and SSL Offloading. the setup of the F5 will not be covered in detail but a reference to the documentation to support SharePoint and SSL Offloading will be provided
    Since you arte going to be using SSL Offloading you do not need to extend your WebApps to use separate IIS WebSites with Unique IP Addresses
    Configure the F5 with SSL Offloading
    Configure a Internal AAM for SSL (HTTPS) for each WebApp that maps to the Public HTTP FQDN AAM Setting for each WebApp
    Our environment has an additional component we require RSA Authentication for all internet facing Sites. So we have the extra step of extending the WebApp to a separate IIS WebSite and configuring RSA for each extended WebSite.Reference:

    I purchased a  MBP 13.3/2.5/8GB/128GB FLASH from Apple store in Manhattan Beach,CA some months ago. It has only 128 GB storage.
    I soon realized that I did a big mistake not upgrading the storage when purchasing. I thought I could upgrade later which is not possible I understand.
    My Q:
    What is the best and most practical/userer friendly option for additional storage say up to 1 TB ?

    Hey leiv karsten,
    As your macbook is retina,you can't upgrade it like previous generation macbook pro.You can purchase a portable 1TB external harddrive.

  • Best upgrade option?

    I have Elements 6 somewhere on one of my computers. I also have PaintShopPro (:)) which although I like it has started being really flakey lately. I'm considering getting CS5. I have a small studio and I have a college student working with me at the weekend.
    Once upon a time you could upgrade from another package to photoshop I don't know if you still can.
    or
    Should I upgrade from Elements 6 to CS5?
    or
    Can I get an educational version because I have a photography college student with me?
    What is my best/cheapest/legal upgrade option?

    Unless it has been changed back, the "commercial use" aspect was removed from the educational versions (as there are now a couple of "educational" versions, I'd urge any user to check the EULA for their specific version), some time ago. I think that it was about CS, or maybe CS2?
    That commercial use limitation was particularly difficult to enforce, and I would suspect that Adobe Legal just decided to eliminate that stipulation. However, what gets eliminated, could always be reinstated at some point, so it's always a good thing to check into, just like available upgrade paths.
    Good luck to the OP,

  • What is the best "insurance" option for an iPhone?

    Hey all. So I'm almost at the point where I can finally afford getting myself an iPhone and I definitely don't have the funds to be able to replace it if something were to go wrong. So I'm wondering what is the best insurance plan for an iPhone? I'm not the clumsiest person, but I have been known to drop a gadget every once in a great while and I definitely don't want to break an iPhone.
    Apple obviously has AppleCare, but that doesn't cover physical damage. I know Best Buy's covers accidental damage, but that's 15 bucks a month...more than I'd like but that's a nice incentive. Are there any other good options that would cover physical damage? I used to work for Best Buy and I've never had any trouble with their BTP plans, I'm just not a huge fan of the idea of paying 15 bucks a month. Any other plans I don't know about?

    Safeware http://www.safeware.com/ specializes in laptop, etc coverage, including smartphones. I bought a laptop policy from them around 2002, but since I never had to claim on it, cannot speak as to their customer service or anything. A google on "smartphone insurance" may turn up more specialized companies.
    I recently noticed, and it was total news to me, that one of those credit cards I picked up in college for the free t-shirt and have had for 10-15 years, includes insurance coverage for my mobile phone. This particular card is branded AT&T and doubles as a calling card, and I'm guessing that's why. I haven't checked into the details, but people might keep an eye out for something random like that.
    I should ask my renter's insurance about the phone.

  • What's the best importing option for a Flash video?

    I've got a few encoded high definition videos that are now .flv files and I'm wondering which is the best option to choose when importing the .flv file into my Flash project? I'm looking for fastest loading/streaming with best quality to be the result. If I choose a streaming option like progressive download from a web server, would the choice be dependent on the type of server the file(s) are hosted on? I'm using Flash Professional 8.

    Hi,
    The best importing option for video is streaming from flash media server. Below I discuss the drawbacks if you use other alternatives.
    i) If you use embed video option
    File size will go huge. Loading time will be higher. This is not a good option if you have big size video files.
    ii) If you use progressive download from a web server
    Video file gets downloaded to the client machine during the progressive download. Since video file is downloaded into the client machine, there are chances of the external user to reuse the same video.
    iii) If you use streaming from flash media server
    Video directly gets streamed from Flash Media Server. In this case, video file download does not happen on the client side. Video file security concerns are already addressed by Flash Media Server protocols.
    Thanks

  • What is the best upgrade for the new Air?

    I am looking for a new Macbook Air for college and was wondering what upgrade would be the smartest decision. I was thinking of a 13" air with:
    1.7GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost up to 3.3GHz
    8GB 1600MHz LPDDR3 SDRAM
    128GB PCIe-based Flash Storage
    or a 13" Air with:
    1.4GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 processor
    Turbo Boost up to 2.7GHz
    8 GB memory
    256GB PCIe-based flash storage1
    The former option would save me approximately $60. What are the benefits of an upgraded processor? I have heard they would make my computer overheat more easily and the fan would be significantly louder. This is making me question if the processor is worth it. In addition, I am unsure of how beneficial the 8GB as opposed to 4GB of RAM would be. How can I optimize the speed of my laptop if I want to run Windows through Parallels? That is essential.
    Please advise, Thanks.

    If you buy a 2013 model you can save up to $400+ from online resellers who are clearing out the "old" model.
    However the "old" model is nearly 100% identical in performance .
    to answer your question, unless you plan on gaming or video editing, get the I5 with 8GB of RAM with 256 SSD

  • What is the best upgrade. If I am using PM 6.5

    Hello Everyone,                       We create E-books nothing to do with designing and some time (Maths-Equations). Currently, We using PM 6.5 on win:98 with all that old software installed. However, We looking for upgrade either Win7 or Win-Xp. I tried on windows 7 to open my old PM 6.5 files in In-design CS5 everything worked fine. Just got stuck with "No fill patterns are supported right now. That patterns are those maths equation in that old 6.5 files which are not showing up right now in In-Design. So, if anyone could help me to fix this. I'll be glad. If there is no fix for this as of now. So at-least give me some alternative to fix this issue or some suggestion on what to do next. What are my options...? Because those old 6.5 files are very important for us and we use those files every time for reference in our new books or model papers. Our main concern is to upgrade to what we have no cue...? Thanks.

    If I understand you, the bad news is you'll need to recreate those equations in ID, or in some other application and then place them.

    It may be a cpu/logic board issue, I an considering swapping them out from a faster machine.
    Would this be worthwhile, or should I just trash it and try to get a faster machine.
    If so, what should I look for?
    Thanks

    Thanks Melophage. I've been looking into my options, together with the advice you gave. It seems like I can salvage quite a bit of data after a fresh install if I follow the steps here - OS X: Manually migrating data from another Mac. However, applications are my (only) concern -- for my iLife suite apps (which as I mentioned, are old -- '09 editions) how can I restore those after installing Mavericks fresh? Can I just plug in the original Snow Leopard disc that says applications on it, to install? Or would they show up in Mac App Store (I think not since they are so old and I haven't purchased '11 with this account yet).
    My wife's computer also has some third party apps which would be a pain to reinstall but not end of the world, I suppose. Another route of migrating and keeping these (but still doing a fresh OS install) might possibly be according to OS X: How to migrate data from another Mac using Mavericks, which is really designed for multiple computer copying. But with the SSD external, could I install Mavericks and then take a Time Machine backup of my internal (original) HDD, including those apps, and then follow these steps to import them into the Mavericks install on the SSD, once I booted into it? Does that make sense?
    After some further reading on the subject, I found a lot of difference of opinion (especially on some MacRumor threads) about whether to install fresh OS X or upgrade, but I guess if the install ends up cleaner it could be worth it to install a fresh copy.
    Any comments on the above approaches, or thoughts from others here? Thanks again for your help.
