Windows to I Mac License Transfer

I am currently using Lightroom 3 and photshop elements 10 on a windows operationg system. Both of these products have discs for a Apple pc. Would I be able to re-instal these onto a new I-mac or would I have to purchase new products. I am hoping I can just re-instal my discs onto the I-Mac?
Cheers
Paul

The license works on both the Mac and PC so you can just install it on the Mac and use the same license. I think you are allowed to have two instances of the program installed so you can have it on both your PC and Mac and use them simultaneously.

PC to Mac License Transfer?

I have a licensed version of CS6 on my PC, and just bought a Mac. Any way I can transfer the license to the Mac and use it there without buying a new piece of software? Thanks in advance.
Scotty

Scotty,
Welcome to the forum.
In the past, this has been referred to as a "cross-grade," and is/was available for the price of an upgrade. With Ps CS 6 (end of the perpetual licenses), I do not know what might have changed, but Adobe Customer Support can answer that question.
Now, with the CC (Creative Cloud) licensing, it is my understanding that such a license is X-platform, so the cross-grade is, or will be, a thing of the past.
Good luck,
Hunt

LR - Win to Mac license transfer

does anybody know if I will be able to install LR on Mac in case of switching from Win to Mac? I.e. I currently have a LR 1.0 win license and 2.0 win upgrade purchased and I wonder if thes keys will allow me to install LR on MAC if I opt for change of system (currently under consideration
If not, is there any option how to switch to MAC without complete purchase of a new license ?
+ Bonus question - How will a catalog (40k+ pics) and all the sidecar files created under WIN version of LR 2.2 (2.3) behave if imported under MAC version? Any real life experience witch such transfer?
thanks J.

Now I'm not quite sure how to understand you Sean.
You mentioned that: "...you get one free OS change, but you have to never use the other OS again..." which I read in the way that to switch I will need some assistance/key from Adobe, which will be provided for free in case of the first switch and that such switch it "either-or but not both at the same time". On the other hand in your previous post you mentioned that : "...you can use 2 copies of the program, on either platform ..." which suggesting (if I just do not misread it) that not only can I use both systems simultaneously (which would be sufficient for me and would enable me to use MAC and WIN versions simultaneously for some time and get back to WIN if necessary) but more that I can install and use two copies on each of them.
I'm pretty sure I read one of these posts wrong but please clarify which one if possible (sorry not a native speaker as you can clearly see).
I.e.:
1) Currently I run a single copy of LR on my WIN desktop - do I need a different key or perform some deactivation of such installation to install a second copy on MAC if I got it?
2) If I used two WIN copies currently (one on omy desktop and one on my notebook) - would it change something?
3) If I only wanted to give MAC a try and use it for several months to see if it persuades me (it looks like I will have a chance soon and I'm curious man :-), will I be able to come back to WIN installation If apples let's say "will not satisfy my tastes"?
+ shoud I expect cross-platform problems with a catalogue and library import?
Thanks J.

How Do I transfer my .daa file to Windows bootcamp from mac bootcamp

Hi, there is no way to open .daa files in mac. The only way is to do it trough windows, it wont let me transfer anything to the widows portion of my system, also on my enclosure's portion of windows. Is there any way to let me have privileages to drop off files in windows for the mac partition of my computer?

Hi,
I am supposing, that both of your Windows partitions use the NTFS file system, which OSX can only read but not write.
The easiest way is to use an USB Memory Stick of appropriate size for file transfers.

Is there an easier way to transfer your iTunes library on windows to a mac than copying the library to a usb and plugging the usb into the mac and put the library in the iTunes file

is there an easier way to transfer your iTunes library on windows to a mac than copying the library to a usb and plugging the usb into the mac and put the library in the iTunes file? I recently swapped to Mac and this is how i moved the library from windows to mac and library is in tact but is there an easier way? My cousin just imported her cd's again, but it was harder for me as i have an ipod with over 150 apps and i needed to move them. i think it would be helpful if i knew of an easier way so i can help a friend move his. Thanks

The general method of use is to download a script (double-click or right-click and use Download or Save As...) to a folder of your choice, e.g. your Desktop, Downloads folder or create a folder at ...\iTunes\Scripts. Select a playlist or highlight some tracks in iTunes and then double-click on the script to execute it. If no specific tracks are selected the script will try to work with all tracks in the current playlist or sometimes the entire library.

Yeah, i found the file 'iPod touch app pack 4a93.ipa' in mobile application directory, which directory in Mac should i copy to? Is it \user\<name>\music\iTunes ?
Hi,
I think that is the old "January update", I'm not so sure it is necessary to transfer that one but it would go here -
~/Library/iTunes/Mobile Applications
Look here for the latest 2.0 etc. updates -
C:\Documents and Settings\"name"\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates
Even then I'm not sure even these are required but best back them up to be safe.
I'm not sure where the go in Mac OS X though.
I'm sure someone will let us know soon.

I was given an 80gb ipod classic formated with mac os. Is there any way to connect it to my windows pc so I can transfer the song to my library?

I was given an 80gb ipod classic formatted with mac os. Is there any way to connect it to my windows pc so I can transfer the song to my library? When I try to connect to my pc I get a message asking me if I want to format the drive. I want to try to save the 15000 songs that are already on the ipod. Any suggestions?

The iPod and iTunes are designed so that you cannot transfer music on an iPod to another iTunes Library. This is because the 15,000 songs do not belong to you and you have no legal right to keep them.

Mircomeno with a classic and transfer a voice memo for a windows to a Mac

Hello,
I have a two tier question.
1. I bought a Micromemo recorder by XtremeMac a couple of years ago and it worked great with my 5th generation iPod. I recently got a Classic iPod (6th generation) and it is not syncing up. Is the Micromemo compatible with Classic? Is there any way to make it compatible?
2. My Micromemo did work on a Nano iPod 2nd that is formated to Windows. How can I transfer that Voice Memo on to my Mac?

It really denpends on the os running in the vm and what the permissions are set to on those shares.
I run a few vms on both a mac at home and windows at work and all other computers in my home or at work can connect to the vms without any problems. Even multiple computer at the same time.
It also depends on how you have set the vm up for networking. If you are setting it up as nat, instead of bridged, that can also cause problems access it from multiple system. With nat the vm is on its own network branch.
