Why can't I upload Adobe CS3 on another Mac with the same operating system 10.5.8?

I purchased a MacBook Pro in 2008 and had it installed with Adobe CS3 at the Apple Store. I don't believe I was given any CDs or serial numbers to take home. I still have all the documentation for my other programs I installed myself, like Logic, Final Cut, etc. and those installed fine on my new Mac desktop computer, with the same operating system (10.5.8) as my MacBook. For whatever reason, I don't have the documenation for CS3, but I was able to download a serial number finder and locate the serial number for my version of CS3. But when I enter that serial number into the new computer, Adobe says the serial number is invalid. I thought standard licenses allowed for 2 computers (home/work) per serial number. This is the first computer I've tried to install CS3 on so it seems I should have no problem. Any help here? I'm on a ticking clock because my MacBook could crash any day and I need to get the programs switched over to my new computer. I appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Gerald

What can't I use my iPad in another house with the same internet service as mine

Why can't I use my iPad in another location that has same internet service. Comcast. As me

Presumably, if that house was a wifi network, and you know the wifi networks password so you can connect, you can use it. Does the homeowner have a secured network? Have you asked them for the password to connect?

Why can I not place backup folders in another folder on the same hard drive.

Why can I not move the backup contents of a customer into another folder on the same hard drive without it copiying the information over imediately instead of taking hours and having to use password!!!

Because the backups are not "owned" by you, so you can't just move them.
Also, I don't imagine Time Machine will be able to find them if you just move them.
Take a look at Pondini's Time Machine FAQ #18: http://www.pondini.org/TM/18.html

Not really sure what you are doing that this doesn't work...I have an iPhone, iPad and iPod all using the same email account without any conflicts. Can you explain a littl about what you are trying to do that isn't being allowed?

Does uploading iPhoto libraries from multiple Macs with the same photos create duplicates in the new Photos app?

I have 4 Macs and I had the same iPhoto library on each of them. When I chose to turn on the iCloud Photo Library on each of them, each Mac, each one of them uploaded the library to iCloud Photo Library.. Now it appears that I have many duplicates in the new Library. Is it adding each of the 4 libraries to the mix? It's a real problem as I have 25,000 pictures - 70GB in my library. So paused the upload on 2 of the Macs about half way through in case it is creating duplicates, until I get some answers. Any help would sure be appreciated.

I'm in the same boat as well. I'm doing one mac at a time and seeing how it works. Howev the upload is so slow, who knows when it will be done.

Can a standard Adobe ID Suite be installed on more than one computer? If not; how can an educator buy a second seat on another computer with the same educators account?

Adobe requires an ID account to install software on a single computer. However I have a portable Mac as well as a desktop system. Can I install another copy with the monthly paid installation on the second computer or do I need to buy another seat with the same account?

Hey tferm78!
I have a couple of options for you to consider. First, you may simply want to authorize all of your computers for your iTunes account and turn on Automatic Downloads, so that when you download something on one computer, it will automatically download to other computers:
iTunes Store: Authorize or deauthorize your Mac or PC
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1420
iTunes Store: How to enable Automatic Downloads
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4539
You could also look into iTunes Match, a service that would seamlessly link all of your iTunes libraries:
Apple - iTunes - Match
http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/
Lastly, here is an article that will help you move your library from one computer to another, if you so desire:

Why can I no longer access google from my mac with either Firefox or Safari

why can I no longer access google from my mac with either Firefox or Safari — both with latest updates loaded. My PC is fine.

What was before? And what is now?
It is a good idea to include the machine type and OS version in your problem posts.

Can I use an Adobe Professional license from 2008 with the current version of Adobe Acrobat XI Pro?

Can I use an Adobe Professional license from 2008 with the current version of Adobe Acrobat XI Pro?

With "license" you mean serial number? If that serial number was for a different Acrobat version (e.g. 9), you cannot use it for the current version XI.
You can however use it to purchase an upgrade from http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html

Why can't I send messages to my friends that have the same thing as me? t

Why can't I send messages to my friends that have the same thing as me? They can send to me. It says that they aren't registered and they are though.

What phone do you have? And how, exactly, are you trying to send pictures to Facebook? It sounds like you need to log into Facebook on the phone or re-enter your username and password for Facebook. Somehow the connection between your photos and Facebook has been lost, and you need to get them connected again (verify your login information)

The problem is with the new operating system and sending photo via email when used in my iPad. From photo I selected 3 photos to send via email. I choose the upload key and choose to send by email. Typing text on the email is very slow.

The problem is with the new operating system and sending photo via email when used in my iPad.
From photo I selected 3 photos to send via email. I choose the upload key and choose to send by email. Typing text on the email is very slow. This is solved by saving the email as a draft and opening the email again from mail.
Can you amend he system to allow emails to be sent from photo as previously.

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

Why contacts birthdays are being showed in iCloud calendar all with the same age (11 years)??

Why contacts birthdays are being showed in iCloud calender all with the same age (11 years) ?? There is a solution to solve this problem ??
Thank-you

I cannot agree more with your comments! What a way to frustrate your customers!
I have been having an issue with iCloud on Mac where it kept asking me for my password and sometimes would, sometimes would not continue to access my iCloud mail. Today it just refused to connect to iCloud mail.
I looked in the Mail, Contacts and Calendars in my MacBook Pro settings and discovered that 2 iCloud accounts were present. One with my original Apple ID (a gmail address) and a second with my new iCloud email ( an @me.com address). Having deleted the second account, using the new @me.com address everything is working fine.
So from my viewpoint when I moved over to iCloud I was asked to sign in with my Apple ID (the gmail address) then to create an @me.com address. However, as far as I can see all sign ins to the new @me.com account on Macbook, iPhone and iPad need to be done through the old Apple ID (the gmail address). Is that confusing and just plain crazy???
Further, after creating the new @me.com address I soon found out that this is apparently now forever bound to my old Apple ID and cannot be changed. I mean why can't I delete the iCloud account and start anew with a different @me.com address??? Also, as everybody using iCloud must create an @me.com address why on earth can I not get rid of my old gmail address and have my entire Apple ID accessed through the new @me.com address? Creating a whole new Apple ID will not solve this as we are unable to transfer purchases between accounts.
Apple products are great IMHO, but they do seem to not think things through in a very big way sometimes......

Can I have an iPhone, ipad and MacBook Pro with the same apple id

Can I have an iPhone, ipad and MacBook Pro with the same apple id. When I use I tunes it get confusing and I have a paid app that needs the same id

When syncing the iPhone and iPad with iTunes on your computer that is logged in with the Apple ID you plan on using on all three, the Apple ID should be transferred to the iPhone and iPad for the iTunes & App Stores on each device. If not, you'll need to sign out of the existing Apple ID on the iPhone and iPad followed by signing in with the Apple ID you want to use on both.
Keep in mind that all 3rd party apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account or Apple ID that was used to download the apps. With an app installed on your iPad and iPhone that was downloaded with a different Apple ID from the one you will be using now, you will need to use that Apple ID and password to install app updates for those apps. Not possible to transfer apps purchased with one Apple ID to another or to merge Apple IDs.
