My Mac has crashed. Reinstalling my operating system or hard drive replacement will cause me to lose my Adobe Master Suite?

I bought my Macbook Pro 17 (it's a Mid-2009, running Cougar 10.8.4) used on eBay, and it came with Adobe Master Suite CS5. I pursued a degree in graphic design, and the computer had everything that I needed to start. Now that I'm out of College, I rely heavily on InDesign and Photoshop to get the job done. However, after five years of loyal service without problem, my Mac has crashed and I have never used time Machine. I might have to reinstall Mountain Lion or replace the hard drive. Reinstalling my operating system or hard drive replacement will cause me to lose my Adobe Master Collection of applications? I can save them somehow?

Any reply and help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your time.

  • HPE 570 T operating system failed - hard drive may be gone

    I have a HPE 570 T where exploitation would not start this weekend.  I got this computer a year and change.  I couldn't do it via safe mode and Windows 7 Startup Repair won't work.  I was able to reimage the hard drive and I was about one hour and was some windows updates and it died again.  Now it wont let me reimage and in BIOS diagnostics I get an error injury messages that the hard drive has failed.  I think that the hard drive is dead, or the SATA connection is dead. I don't know what else to do.

    I read that the SATA ports some time fail over time on these motherboards.  I wonder if I can buy an SSD and SATA III PCI card and start from scratch.   I I'm OK to do on this system.  If fail built-in SATA ports that could solve my problem in the long term.

    Any advice?  My computer is down for the count.

    Hello

    First of all check the warranty status for your HP HPE - 570 t.  Some of the HP PC come with a one year warranty more.

    Secondly, almost everyone buys a PC using a credit card.  Check with your credit card company and see if your credit card covers electronics for an additional year beyond the warranty period.  Several credit card companies provide this coverage free of charge.

    Start your PC in diagnostics (f2) and run diagnostics.

  • Reinstalling operating system after hard drive failure. new hard drive is smaller

    Is it possible that I can use the smaller hard disk in my slimline model possible s3500f. The original drive has failed and needs to be replaced. I have that I bought a few years ago, it's 300 GB of the disk sata hard donkey used. The reader who couldn't amounted to 500. I don't just have money to buy another hard drive. Nor have the money to buy a vista 64 installation disc. I made the recovery discs when I bought the machine like a good girl should, but now I find out that they will not work to install the OS on the new drive, because it is smaller.

    Is there a way to get around this? My financial situation like so many others has changed radically since I bought the computer and try to get money$ $ for a new hard drive or Setup disk would take time and my son needs the computer for school, which begins this week.

    Thank you in advance to anyone who knows a solution

    Salvation, which will not work because they will not be able to send a file of 3 GB email.

    Your choices as I see it is to make a 32-bit installation media, or have your friend make the 64-bit support and you deliver the completed flash drive, after they test.

    You can start just up and then cancel the installation - just to make sure it will work.

  • I have an ACER Veriton M221 - dual operating system on hard drive - I want change the XP to Windows 7

    I need instructions to change my OS from XP to win 7 opersting system supplied with the machine, on the hard drive.

    Nice day

    Normally with the double load, Windows 7 is the primary OS and then you switch to XP. However, once you switch to XP, the only way to get back to Windows 7 using recovery disks of Windows 7, you must have created before downgrading to Windows XP. However, the procedure will be to click on start, all programs, Acer eRecovery management, restore, completely restore to the factory settings, click on and you then get a pop up in the middle of the screen with Windows XP X 86 and options Windows 7 x 86 which you can select one, click ok, then, machine will restart and begin to load the operating system that you selected.

  • tried to reinstall the operating system and it crashed

    Acer One Netbook D257.

    Installed to 2 g of RAM (you have to take all this goes to do!) and since then the wireless is uneven right next to the router unless.

    So, I thought it would be a pilot. Tried to install the driver from Intel. That didn't fix it.

    So I thought I would start fresh by reinstalling the operating system using the Acer tool that backs up the user's data.

    Wonder of wonders, it doesn't at all now! System 7 House is caput! He starts up a message saying that Acer could not install the OS!

    Suggestions? How can I get a copy of "acer" of win7 to replace on this netbook?

    TIA

    Ron

    Alrighty then, here is the resolution!

    Apparently, there is a removable rear on this computer! You must know the 'secret' to open the door!

    The 'trick' is to remove the keyboard, and then there are 5 magic screws that release the rear panel.

    There are two right under the disk hard corners L & R and then there are three online in the upper part of the hard drive. One of those is to the left of the upper-left corner (probably as he field key 'E'?) Once you do this, dislodging then the back is yet another task. Fortunately for me, I pushed inside to understand. There's "brand" in the plastic that indicate you the five. Just look at the two bottom and you'll see what I mean.

    The other thing to know is that the back side of the Panel has hooks that need to go first when back, which means that it is NOT the starting point of prying eyes. The other 3 sides are 'snap' as push so I think that starting with a front corner notches to stop might be the best solution, otherwise you will destroy the hooks.

    The problem with dropping the network was the antenna wires that connect to the transmitter. They were loose. They do not have much of a loop service for them so when I raised the mobo to install memory, the first time, they jumped off. The antenna is located around the monitor bezel.

    Now, it works fine.

    Why they have not make obvious to repair this unit is a mystery. I guess for $250, it's a deal, but then you get watered to have someone for you install memory.

    If all goes well, I saved someone some $ and headaches this announcement.

    Enjoy

  • Reinstall the operating system

    I had to reformat my readers caused by a virus and I do not have the disk of OS from xp to re instal Home Office. I don't have the product key that has a label on the back of the pc. The operating system has been pre-installed with the purchase of the pc. How can I reinstall the operating system with a copy of xp home but I have the product code?

    Some computer manufacturers, including Dell and HP, have a recovery partition on the hard drive of the new computers.  By pressing a special key combination when the computer starts, you can use the recovery partition to restore the computer to the way it was when it was new.

    If this is not available, contact the PC manufacturer and ask a floppy to install for your computer model.
