Old computer ruined by a reversal of the... Joanie the HDD can be transferred to a new Apple Air Pro?
Bought an Apple MacBook 13 July Air and today tea spilled on it... Rushed to the Apple store and they said the PC was ruined... bought a new MacBook Pro 13 with the intension to have the old hard disk installed as there are documents that have been away and maybe not saved.
Would it not possible, theoretically, to simply swap the drives?
Hello
Hard drives cannot be exchanged between a MacBook Air and MacBook Pro.
Unfortunately, without a backup to restore from, you're out of luck with the documents.
If the future, you can save documents to an external drive using the Time Machine application in your Applications folder.
Use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac
OR, you can create an iCloud account and store documents in this way > How to Setup iCloud
iCloud works via a Wi - Fi network.
You get 5 GB of free storage with iCloud.

Hello. I would like to activate my educational program CS3 (version 2007) on my new computer. Unfortunately, it does not accept my serial number. What can I do? I delayed the program on my old computer, but it does not accept the activation on the new laptop.
Make sure you use the correct serial number. Quickly find your serial number
If you do not disable the original installation, then it is possible that your two activations permits were used, and you need to reset your counter to activate. For this you must contact the Adobe Support via chat and ask them to reset your activations. If you ask for more than that they will tell you that they cannot offer you any support.

I have a subscription to CC Photoshop and Lightroom. I bought a new Apple MacBook Pro last week. I had Adobe shadow my computer to download both programs on my computer. Downloads succeeded, but now my problem is that nothing has been transferred? I have photos and user presets on my old computer in lightroom, but nothing transferred. Also, it is show on this computer I have 5 Lightroom, but team support pulled up to my account today and downloaded lightroom cc if it still means something. I am a new photographer and green not computer savvy. I am totally confused with no further assistance from Adobe.
It's pretty normal. All your images are always on your old computer and you transfer those to your new computer. Just transfer them as well as your catalog file and opens in Lightroom on the new computer. For presets, you need to transfer files, preferences and presets that are hidden in folders hidden on the Mac. Therefore, with the Mac, when I update the machines, I'm usually just restore from a backup on the new computer (very easy with Time Machine backups) or directly from the old machine (a little harder). This will give all files and settings and the software installed on the old machine immediately and you can just continue. Is not something that Adobe can really help you with either said by the way, but you might have someone from the Apple Store help you with that, if you are not comfortable with moving files to a new computer.
Cc of Lightroom is simply a version update of Lightroom 5. CC requires a monthly subscription that pay you apparently. You did not use the software you pay for if you use 5 Lightroom on the old machine.

I am running windows 7, I had to recover my files on an external hard drive when my old computer crashed. I created a new profile as described in the Web site of firefox and copied all the files into it. I just need to know how to use the new profile when I open firefox, just delete the old profile? Or do I have to reinstall firefox.
If you no longer have need or intention to use this older profile, then you can use the Profile Manager to delete this profile and delete the files.

Old computer reinstalled XP cannot connect to the internet. Could not find the iexplore
I have an old computer. I reinstalled Windows XP on it about 30 days ago. I can't connect to the internet. I bought 2nd hand computer and I bought my own version of XP directly from Microsoft. I can't activate. I can not even find iexplore. Any suggestions? I installed a driver for the ethernet card and still nothing.
I've never dealt with XP MCE, but from what I've seen, you can get ambiguous messages during the installation process. MCE was never intended for installation by end users; It came normally pre-installed on computers that have the necessary equipment to support additional features 'media '.
It seems to me that if you have to start over. First of all, you should get a prompt for "Windows XP Professional CD2" - who wants to have the second of the two CDs. Then you should get a prompt for "XP Professional Service Pack 2 CD." In response to this prompt, insert the CD first back in.
Assuming that work better than before, right-click on desktop and select Properties. If the display shows service pack 2 - which I believe it will be - you only need to install sp3.

Old computer died, and Microsoft still has the key as being active.
When I installed Windows Vista Ultimate Edition on a new computer, (purchased from the U.S. Government so he came with no operating system), I tried to activate Vista and I was told the product key is already in use. Well, it's not that the computer no longer exists. Maybe I should try to bypass the router wireless in the House? I sent an e-mail to Microsoft and have yet to receive response.
Hi danpage0,
It is a standard procedure, all intent and purpose, the key is in fact still being used on your old machine. There is no way to disable by simply saying he's dead. However, there is no problem. All you need to do is use the phone option and your copy of Windows will be reactivated. See this link from my Web site: http://vistasupport.mvps.org/product_key_already_in_use.htm

If you want to install Windows 98 and you don't have it, you can buy a copy. You can only buy used copies these days, but if you can find one, it must be very cheap.
