• Files from Nikon (CS5.5) stuttering during playback. Canon files were very good. Do I need a different sequence setting, upgrade of the computer?

  I have been change in first CS 5.5 and have always enjoyed a generally transparent experience, but since the change of camera from Canon to Nikon systems, I can't play back more than 2 layers of Nikon without playback stutter. I could easily stack 3 or more layers of Canon without issue.all

  I think I'm following best practices for my hardware, and as I said, I've accomplished in the past, but it seems that my machine does not meet the Nikon video anywhere near as well as he did with Canon. Everyone knows this?

  Here is my system info:

  I7 - 2600K
  SSD 256 GB (OS, swap file)

  1 TB WB black (projects, data)

  1 TB WD Black (previews, export)

  GTX 560 Ti 2 GB (on Mercury GPU)

  Ideas or suggestions on things to do back to speed, or do I need an upgrade? It's just images of SLR, I feel that this system should be more than capable of 2 rivers.

  Thank you!

• Failure of Windows 7 Anytime Upgrade on the new computer laptop

  Hello

  We just bought a new Asus laptop that came with Windows 7 Starter as standard.

  A week later, we bought an Express Upgrade Home Premium 7.

  The upgrade has failed at first time around; following the advice of the community, I tried the following:

  Check all updates;

  Installed the CheckSUR tool fix;

  Disabled user account control;

  Disabled antivirus;

  The hard drive to find errors;

  Profiled selective startup in MSConfig.

  In the end, I got was a "invalid product key" - which it is not.

  Windows displays as entered, and I have SP1.

  As a last resort, I have reset the specifications of the factory and tried the Express upgrade as the first thing on the PC 'cost '. Upgrade failed after 25 minutes.

  In the very final resort, I reset all the solutions above workaround to the specifications of the factory again, re-directed (except by disabling the antivirus because I have not reinstalled which again - there is only Windows Firewall between me and the world wide). Update failed.

  I just tried to disable the Windows Firewall and tried the upgrade - my product key verified program, was asked to accept the terms, told me it would be as little as 10 minutes - but now it's to say the upgrade button that I entered is a version of Windows that does not work with the Express upgrade... but it IS an Express upgrade.

  It took nine days so far - please you have the magic answer? Thank you waiting...!

• When I install CS5.5 (upgrade) in a new computer, it says that there are no old version in the computer. I have older versions CS3 and 1.1 What do I have to install them also?

  When I install CS5.5 (upgrade) in a new computer, it says that there are no old version in the computer. I have older versions CS3 and 1.1 What do I have to install them also?

  Laughing out loud

  but after you have entered your serial number of cs5.5, the installer will search your computer for cs3.  Unable to find the Setup program will present a drop-down list of previous versions.  Select cs3.  you will be prompt to enter the serial number for cs3.

  Enter the correct number at the right time and proceed with the installation.

• I am entitled to an upgrade, as I have CS3 I want to buy a new mac and install the upgrade on the new computer. How can I do this?

  I am entitled to an upgrade, as I have CS3 I want to buy a new mac and install the upgrade on the new computer. How can I do this?

  If you get two new machines and the CS3 allows you to get the price reduced for a year then you should certainly pursue it.  However, I always recommend people to try before you buy.  When you get the new machines install the trial version and make sure that it works for you correctly.  Once you have confirmed it correct functions, then you can purchase the subscription.

• Install the upgrade on the new computer

  I am trying to install an upgrade Acrobat on my new computer.  The download will install but will not work because the original version of Acrobat is not on my new machine.  How can I install this?

  Hi DennisReid,

  Welcome to the Adobe Forum,

  The previous version didn't need to be installed on the computer on which you install the upgrade.

  When installing it you will be asked the previous version that you have, you must choose the previous version, then it will ask you to enter this serial number to complete the installation.

  Kind regards

• Transfer of license to upgrade to a new computer without the old serial number

  I'm transferring Acrobat 9 Pro Extended from an old computer to a new one. The serial number for Acrobat 9 seems to be a upgrade license, but I can't find the old version of Acrobat applied to the upgrade on the old computer.

  Is it possible to get this improved old - the serial number on the old computer so that the serial number upgrade can be applied on the new computer?

  Connect to adobe.com with your Adobe Id and check in the command history for details of previous orders placed.

  Otherwise you can contact Customer Service at 8008336687 that can help you unlock serial number to help you install the software if you have purchased a valid upgrade.
