  • Our office has 10 licenses for Adobe Acrobat Pro.  One of our computers crashed so we want to deactivate the license and reinstall on a new computer.  How can we check the serial number on Acrobat Pro installed on each computer to determine which series

    Our office has 10 licenses for Adobe Acrobat Pro.  One of our computers crashed so we want to deactivate the license and reinstall on a new computer.  How can we check the serial number on Acrobat Pro installed on each computer to determine what serial number is now unused?  I don't want to die with the computer software

    Hi John,.

    It is not possible to disable the license from one computer crashed or possible to check which serial number has been used on computer because they are encrypted.

    A retail license is good to be installed on 2 machines. I checked your account and found 4 different serial numbers of Acrobat registered for your account.

    It is always suggested to buy a volume license, if you have more than 2 machines instead of buy 4 different serial numbers.

    I checked all the serial numbers entered and you have sufficient activation count remaining to cover all your machines.

    Kind regards

  • How can I enable the memory remapping?

    I want to know the steps I must follow to enable the memory remapping. what I should I look for in the search bar of windows, the run menu, etc..

    Hello

    -What is the operating system installed on your computer?
     
    To enable the memory remapping, I suggest you enable in the BIOS and check if it helps.
    BIOS - how to enter the BIOS?
    Each computer is different, when you turn on the computer, it should tell you what button to push to get into the BIOS. This is usually one of the following values, and you have to push it in the first 5 seconds: F1 F2 F10 F12 ESC LED
    Once in the BIOS find the menu with the remapping of memory, it is different on each computer.
     
    Enable memory remapping feature
    Check the BIOS settings to see if the memory remapping feature is enabled. Remapping memory access Windows for more memory. You can enable the memory remapping feature in the BIOS by starting the configuration of the system. See the Guide to your computer for instructions on starting the installation of the system on your computer. The name of the memory remapping feature may be different for different hardware vendors. This may be listed as remapping memory, memory expansion, or something similar. Don't forget that your computer can not supported the memory remapping feature.

    Note: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

     
    For reference:
    Usable memory may be less than the memory installed on Windows 7 computers:

  • HTTPService with XML format errors when XML is empty. How can I test the value?

    I have a simple HTTPService that returns XML code. 99% of the time there are values and all is right with the world, but sometimes there is no values and my xml looks like this

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> 
      <node /> 
    
    

    It is quite valid. How can I test this and avoid

    ReferenceError: Error #1069: node not found property on flash.xml.XMLNode and there is no default value.

    I tried

    If

    Normally the XML with the look as values

    (event.result.node == null)

    <node>
    -     <node label="MYLABEL1" id="231" type="O" />
          <node label="MYLABEL2" id="263" type="O" />
      </node>
    
    
    
    

    This Punch and see what happens:

    var xml =

    ;

    If (xml.hasOwnProperty ("node"))

    {

    trace ("neat!");

    }

    var xmlList1:XMLList = xml.node.attribute ("attribute1");

    If (xmlList1.length () > 0)

    {

    trace ("attribute1 found.');

    }

    var xmlList3:XMLList = xml.node.attribute ("attribute3");

    If (xmlList3.length () > 0)

    {

    trace ("attribut3 found!'); This will not be found

    }

    Of course, the try-catch blocks are my usual method of getting XML incorrect, but it's a little hokey.

  • Tecra R850 - How can I reduce the memory shared graphics card?

    Hi all

    I need help with a few questions:
    My system says I have 2, 66 GB RAM available for applications, services, etc. The rest (between 1.1 and 1.3 GB of RAM) is shared and reserved for the graphics card. I looked for a way to reduce it through the BIOS (how it works normally), tried an update for the bios jumps that he would add this feature. But it wasn't the case.

    I don't understand why Toshiba won't allow its customers to modifity this setting!
    I can understand putting such a context by default, but also giving an option for advanced users to change this setting.

    2, 66 GB RAM are not very good and I often need more than that... 500 MB more of RAM for sys would be really nice.
    And 64 bit OSs don't are currently not supported in our society.

    Does anyone know if a way to reduce the memory shared to 500 MB for example?

    My system features:

    Windows 7 Pro SP1 (32-bit)
    Model: TECRA R850
    SERIALNO. : 7B042670H
    PartNo. : PT525E-03E00KGR

    Thank you in advanced for your answers!

    As far as I know shared memory works automatically and laptop user cannot control it.
    There is nothing new and the same principle is on all Toshiba laptops.

    Sorry but there is nothing to do about it.

  • Equium A60 runs unstable - how can I upgrade the memory?

    I have a friend visit me who has an Equium A60 which is very unstable when she runs multiple applications. I checked and it has only 192 MB of RAM. Can be increased and if so how much. How many slots are there on this machine?

    She is currently in the USA and I checked on Toshiba USA website and cannot find this PC is listed, so it should only be sold in Europe. It would be useful if someone could tell me what kind of memory it takes so I could look for it here. She is a student and in great need of a stable computer for his studies.

    Thanks a lot for all the help in advance.

    Hello

    Of course you can upgrade the memory.
    I guess you have only 192 MB memory main because the laptop came with 256 MB internal memory and the 64 MB are shared by the graphics card! This is why only 192 MB are free.

    Anyway, as I said the laptop came with 256 MB internal and memory is not removable.
    So only one slot is expandable!
    If you can upgrade the memory for max 1280MB (256 MB + 1024 MB)

    You can use the modules:
    PC2700 256 MB (PA3311U - 1 M 25)
    PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 1 M 51)
    1024MO PC2700 (PA3313U-1M1G)

    Do you know where is the crack?

    The slot is placed at the bottom of the device! The cover is fixed with a screw.
    Remove this screw and you will be able to open the slot and improve memory.

    PS; I think that upgrading memory is described in the manual of Toshiba that was preinstalled on your laptop.
    Alternatively, you can download this manual from the page of Tosh

  • How can I disable the memory shared in Windows 7?

    I have a PC HP brand new with 6 GB of RAM, and I just installed a 2 GB Nvidia graphics card.  When I checked the graphic properties is what I see...

    MB 4095 total available graphics memory

    Dedicated video memory 2048 MB

    System video memory 0 MB

    Shared system memory 2047 MB

    Total available graphics memory should be 2 GB 4 GB not

    The dedicated video memory is correct.

    Shared system memory must be zero, but it's not.

    When I installed the graphics card and turned on the pc, it automatically installed card and its drivers.

    I read somewhere online that a few new pc will automatically disable the onboard graphics during the installation of a card that I checked, and Yes, it's now disalbled.  But I still see this shared in the properties of the graphics system memory.  Why is this and how can I solve this problem?
