Upgrade CS5 CS6 and switching operating systems
I currently own the CS5 Production Premium Student Edition for PC, and I plan (commercial) CS6 upgrade when it becomes available. Now I work mainly on a Mac and am tired of dual-boot to use my Adobe products, so I wonder if there will be problems with the upgrade and the choice of the OS from PC to Mac switch at the same time. I've seen some old discussions regarding these issues individually, but they applied to previous editions of CS. Any help, ideas or suggestions are welcome!
Hi Tralmek,
There should not be any problem in upgrading and switching of the operating system.
If you want to upgrade to CS5.5 or CS6 MAC CS5 Win, you can do. Its called Cross-platform upgrade.
But as mentioned Bob, you should contact adobe for this. It can be done online from the adobe Web site.
For the best support, I recommend our chat support at http://adobe.ly/yxj0t6. Our chat representatives can provide a personalized experience to solve the problem you described.

* Original title: upgrade
I want to upgrade to a newer Windows operating system Windows Vista Home Pro 64-bit. What is the recommended procedure? I see that Windows 7 or 8, a free update to Windows 10 is offered. Should I buy 7 or 8 then you spend 10 or just buy 10?
Thank you
Jim
Hello
Depends on hardware configuration required on later operating systems, and also find out if the manufacturer of the laptop computer is supported and provides drivers for operating systems later as to whether it is possible or feasible to upgrade or not.
There is no free upgrade Vista to 7, 8.1, or 10.
Follow these steps before you buy Windows 7.
Microsoft sells more than 7; Try Amazon.com.
Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.
If this is not available, Windows 7 will not properly work for you.
Run the "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.

Upgrades for CS6 and Lightroom 4 issues...
I bought two upgrades for CS6 and Lightroom 4. I downloaded the updates on my MAC desktop. Everything was fine. When I searched for them in CCP, he showed CS5 and CS6 and the same thing for Lightroom 3 and 4 of Lightroom. Should I delete CS5 and Lightroom 3? Thanks in advance.
Do not hesitate to remove older versions, if you are reasonably sure you have migrated all of your files and have no technical problems. Just make sure to run the appropriate uninstall programs, trash not only the apps. Also, be warned that you may need to reinstall LR4 and CS6 to fix broken files and components that are shared as bridge associations...

We have Acrobat 9 Pro running on both PCs, with 7 and 8 operating system. We would like to turn off a computer with 8 because we get it. We want to disable Acrobat, then download on a Mac pro. However, we have not the deactivate option available in the drop down aid. Disabling is visible on another desktop computer. Can you advise us on how to disable it on the old laptop and download on the new laptop Mac?
You can't do that. If you have a license for Windows, you can not use it on a Mac.
In addition, Acrobat 9 is obsolete and is not compatible with any current operating system (including Windows 8, which is said by the way).

CS5 and the operating system upgrade to Windows 10
I have Photoshop CS5 running on Windows 7 X 64. My operating system will be upgraded to Windows 10 in late July, through Windows Update. It will break my installation? I need to block the upgrade?
Permanently disable before even trying! The activation system just don't like the changes made to the system, and most certainly will not work afterwards. A reinstall of the CS5 will probably be necessary anyway.

I upgraded my computer, adding a second hard disk for a new operating system and kept the old drive as a data disc. I assumed that I could install Firefox on the new disk and import my favorites from the old installation of Mozilla on the old disk. I can't find the files on the old drive with my favorites. They're still here, or when I reinstalled Firefox, I lost everything even if it was on another drive? I can't find the backup on the old disk files and want to restore my old favorites. Is it possible to do this?
You must find your profile folder in the old drive, the way in which must be:
- First display the hidden files and folders:
- Then go to:
- < old drive >: \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles \Users\ < username >
- Enter in your profile, and then enter the folder bookmarkbackups .
- Copy the latest file from json (backup of bookmarks)
- Then restore from them:
- First display the hidden files and folders:

try to upgrade cs5 cs6 to have account &; license. Help, please
PLEASE, GIVE ME THE DIRECTION!
If you have a license to upgrade for CS6 you already have CS5 installed on the machine, then you should just install CS6 and activate it. The activation process detects CS5 if it is a qualifying version and automatically enable CS6 happen.
If you have not installed CS5 you will need the serial number CS5 when you try to activate the CS6. After entering the serial number CS6 it will confirm or not the number of CS6 is valid and then identify (select in a list) ask version eligible (CS5 in your case), then enter the serial number eligible version.

Y at - there no distinction between the "minimum operating system requirements" and nail systems supported? For example, the minimum list of operations required in accordance with the specifications of the printer 3835 8.1 Windows as one of the required minimum systems, without mention of Windows 10. Yet the system compatible for the same printer is given as Windows 10. For most printers, both the minimum requirements for compatible systems start with Windows 10. I would be grateful someone clarify the difference.
Hello
The minimum system requirements see General requirements such as the operating system, the required memory and the disk space and additional software requirements.
Operating systems supported only summarize the operating systems supported.
Youe taken printer supported on Windows 10, according to the list of the minimum system requirements or operating systems supported section below:

Advantages and disadvantages of adding programs and the operating system windows to mac?
For a long time Windows user., new Mac user. What are the advantages and disadvantages of the addition of the windows operating system and programs for the MacBook Pro? I use word and excel regularly, but not yet sure I want or should add capacity to my new Mac.
If you need Windows programs that don't have any equivalent of Mac, there is nothing wrong with it. I have not because I didn't need Windows programs.
But...
If you do, you must decide if you need full-system-resources (Bootcamp, boot sector corrupted system, OSX will sleep while Windows is running) or just one-environment virtual (VM, share system resources, runs as a 'guest' to OSX at the same time as OSX). Bootcamp will have part of your partitioned drive so make sure you have spare disk space.
And if you go Bootcamp, position and spend time in the Bootcamp Boot Camp forum where lonely T is an expert who can guide you.

Hard drive swapping and the operating system between two laptops of R61e
I have a R61e who broke chassis. Not a left hinge broken, but broke up chassis where the left hinge connects.
I have the opportunity to buy a used one with no operating system.
Both are of type 7650 and all have two 80 GB hard drive.
Will it work if I just reverse this HARD drive with the operating system for the new portable computer?
Yes, it should work without major problems.
In the worst cases, you need to update to a couple of pilots.
Good luck.

I have a HP with Windows 7 Home Premium TouchSmart tm2. The HARD drive is clicking and will not start. Error: Device not found Boot. I guess I have to replace the HARD drive, but how can I restore/reinstall operating system without a recovery disk? Windows was preinstalled, and I have the product key. Thank you.
Hello:
You can order a recovery disc defined by following the instructions on the link below.
http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c00810334
or...
You can download the 32-bit or 64-bit version of windows 7 Home Premium ISO on the link below and use your product key to activate the installation.
http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-Windows-7-SP1-ISO-from-Digital-River/
You need a program that will be able to burn ISO files so that the DVD is bootable DVD burning. Burn at the slowest possible speed for best results.
Then install all the drivers you need for your PC support and driver page.

People,Hello. I'm under VMPlayer 3. My OS is Windows 7 and the guest operating system is Windows XP.
Because the virtual guest OS Windows XP hard drive is full, I need to decompress. http://wmtoolkit.com/files/folders/converters/entry87.aspx does not work.
My question is:
Can any folk provide a link to download VHD Resizer for guest Windows XP and Windows 7 host?
Thanks in advance.
First of all, is correct install VHD resizer in Windows 7 operating system and not guest OS Windows XP host?
No it should not be installed in any to resize a VMware virtual hard drive. The .vhd file extension is used with Microsoft virtulazition no VMware. (Does not mean a .vhd cannot be used, as it can however it not typical.)
Secondly, what file is selected to resize?
None like which is not how a VMware virtual disk gets developed from the interface of VMware Player!
Resize a virtual hard drive via the VMware Player GUI is done using the Expand command on the Utilities menu, when you select the virtual hard disk under settings of the virtual machine on the material tab
Suggest you only look in the help file in VMware Player! VMware Player 3.x menu > help > Help topics > use of disks and drives > Virtual Machine disk storage > parameters of the hard disk to the virtual disks
Once the disc has been extended then the virtual partition to be resized and Andre, I like to use GParted Live ISO Image.
Thirdly, why no unoccupied hard disk in the virtual Windows XP computer after resizing settings completed?
Not sure what you mean by "why no empty disc ', 'unoccupied '? Screenshot of the Hardware tab for the target VM THAT could help explain what you mean by 'unoccupied '. However if you try to resize a VMware virtual hard drive in VMware Player 3.x then extend the disk in the virtual machine settings, then use info to the link provided by André in the first reply in this thread!
