How can I check to see if a serial number
I work in a thrift store nonprofit that resells the goods to give money to our local school system. We were recently given a copy of the Creative Suite 3 Design Premium full (for MAC) to spare, but before that we did it, we wanted to make 100% sure the serial number on the package was still valid for the one who bought the article wouldn't be disappointed.
Is there an easy way to do this? We have tried phone and chat support with no luck. Thank you!
IF the program was used, the previous owner must make a transfer of license https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1355892
No one here (open forum) can help... you MAY be able to obtain an Adobe employee to a serial number search

Why do you think it could be stolen? Ask the seller to clear the Apple ID and password. If the seller is unable to do this or said that they forgot the information, then it might be stolen. If you have any concerns about this, don't buy it.

For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.htmlFor drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
each installation.Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
necessary.Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
manually by model.Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

I am running WINDOWS XP on my desktop and would like it ungrade to WINDOWS VISTA, but I don't know if all my devices are compatible with WINDOWS VISTA! I would like to upgrade my desktop computer for WIN 7, but it would take too many changes, so I'm going to update my laptop for WIN 7 and I have another laptop running WIN XP! So basically I want to have at least one of the three operating systems (XP, VISTA and WIN 7) on my different computers! WIN XP on my laptop older, WINDOWS VISTA on my desktop (currently in XP) and WINDOWS 7 on my laptop latest (running VISTA)! I just want to know how to find out if there is a way to see if all my components on my desktop are compatible with WINDOWS VISTA, but the Advisor WINDOWS VISTA is no longer available? I used the WIN 7 Advisor to check what is required for me to upgrade my desktop PC to WIN 7 but there are too many changes that need to be done! I also used the WIN 7 Advisor on my new laptop and it has only a few changes that need to be done and that is why I want to upgrade my laptop to WINDOWS 7 and my desktop for WINDOWS Vista!
Hello
I already gave you advice available to upgrade to Vista in your other thread earlier in this forum
You should check with the manufacturers of hardware and program
and use the Vista Compatibility Center
http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-Vista/
and read the vista system requirements

How can I check if the program 'youtube downloader video and audio by Chris 0.3.5 has malicious software.
When I go to download it has chain
https://addons.Mozilla.org/Firefox/downloads/latest/413644/addon-413644-latest.xpi?src=userprofileI'm so nervous about downloading anything for fear of getting my hijacked browser or worse, because it's already happened twice. Any advice on this program or if there is a similar program to download youtube, who is known to be squeaky clean?
Too, I have youtube downloader video and audio 0.3.5 by Chris on FF but have not used a lot or not at all. Today, Avast gave me a warning (probably a Malware DB recent update) that this product has very bad side. My two main concerns are a possible Trojan and adware popups - horse for now that I only have those on a single site, The Pirate Bay, but they are devilishly difficult to get rid of.
Avast and some other malware utilities not come with Trojan horses, but I saw a EULA (on Board of another, may not be the same product) which explicitly stated the software would share information on the internet, probably tunnel through the firewall. Malware utilitie which would detect as a Trojan horse, or that they would assume that I installed it intentionally? How do they know?
Are modules which arise on the FF Add-ons Manager > get guaranteed by Mozilla addons?
