Hard disk crash, reinstall Adobe CS6 and LR 6 Progs. How should I treat the activations?
Hello. I have two questions, and both are presented here because they are linked to the main problem.
Question 1:
I had a hard drive failure. I lost my operating system and applications. I am aware of the issues with Adobe software activation. I am a registered user of Adobe CS6 and Lightroom 6. I need to reinstall, but I don't want the activation count against me, as I also want these programs on a laptop. I can't 'turn off' these programs as the hard drive failed. I have more access to this broken system. I reinstall my whole system. How to achieve this?
Question 2:
I bought Lightroom 6 an update of Lightroom 5. Since I had the hard drive failure, and I guess I'll get help with question 1 above, must I reinstall Lightroom 5 first? I would prefer not to reinstall Lightroom 5 I want the new installation of the system to be as clean as possible. Please notify.
Thank you

I'm reinstalling CS3 Web Standard after a hard disk crash. I have my serial number, but after entering, it does a check of upgrade, and at the time wherever I upgraded I also did a single switch from Mac to PC - so my product calling (Studio MX Mac) has a serial number starting with "WSM600"... ", while the upgrade check won't accept - Studio MX Mac is not yet available as an option. This happened once before and I had to work with a representative by phone (I had to click in a hidden part of one of the activation screens to get a number, if I remember correctly), but apparently Adobe that does more. And the page of "www.adobe.com/go/activiation" the phone message directs you to doesn't seem to have an option for this problem either.
So, what is the replacement or her work around this problem now?
Hi lkauffman,
The serial number must be unlocked for activation.

I reinstalled adobe CS6. my other macs, I had a printer named 'Adobe PDF', that I could choose that as my printer and a dialogue box came up, I named the file and the location. I can't figure out how to get this done on my new mac. Help
There are two ways to create a PDF on a Mac:
(1) you can use the default method, which is to choose file > print. Click on the PDF menu below on the left, then click on save as PDF. This lets you name and save the PDF file using the mechanism of OS X to create PDF files.
(2) in the same menu, you can save in Adobe PDF format. It runs a script (a little slow) that lets choose you what PDF settings file you want to use. This is the Adobe-developed mechanism that replaces the old Virtual PDF printer.

Have a Dell system, caught a virus and it has really messed up the PC. Recently, it got worse so I tried to reinstall the operating system with the Dell disks. It wouldn't work. So I bought for Windows 7 Professional, it will not be installed. My first question when installing a new operating system isn't automatically wipe the hard disk, create a new partition, and then install the operating system? Because this does the same as the Dell disks, is to take what is on the hard drive and put it in a folder called windows old, is not formatting the HD. When I boot the disk, it shows the installation of files then open windows and start the installation. Before he could finish I get an error missing or corrupted files. Tried several times now, windows will still not open. Any suggestions? Once while trying to install the pc crashed with a blue screen which is one of the reasons why I have reinstall the OS, he started to plant a few times. I don't remember all the details on my PC, but its 4 years, triple core coprocessors, ram 8 GB, 500 GB HD. At the same time just after all this started in Jan. I had also improved my 3 GB to 8 GB memory. I bought the Dell memory for my system. Since the crash, could there be a problem with these new memory chips? Last night I tried to disassemble each and reinstalling it, but that doesn't seem to make a difference. Before I tried to reinstall the operating system, the pc was see the concert 8.

Disconnect any other (additional) internal hard drives and external USB devices.
Look for any loose hard drive power or cables SATA, graphics card or other power cables.First run Memtest86 +:
It runs from a floppy disk or CD and should eliminate or confirm if one or more of your memory
sticks are bad or the values of the SPD in the BIOS are correct.
Let it run for as long as you can: 2,4,6,8 or several hours (at least 3 full passes), so no errors at that time then your ram is OK.
