Hello, I'm new here.
I've been working with PS in college and will continue to do so in the coming semesters.
I purchased the student version of PS CS3.
I own a Maxtor external drive partitioned for Mac & Windows.
I own a MacBook partitioned with BootCamp, running OSX and Windows XP.
My daughter has the same MacBook and I hope to add Windows XP to it also.
I want to have PS on the external so my daughter and I can both use it with our individual computers at home.
I do not intend to have the external carried out of the house.
I thought I had installed PS on the external, but I'm not sure about that.
I suspect I did something wrong and some of the files necessary for running PS are on my laptop instead.
Here's a window I get when I open PS from the external...
When I click Repair Now, it opens PS and I go to work. I get the same message every time I start up the external and go to open PS.
When I click Cancel, it opens PS and I go to work.
My daughter plugged the firewire cable into her laptop, turned on the external and tried to open PS.
She got a message that said something to the effect of: "The license for this product has expired... to fix this, uninstall and reinstall ...."
I am thinking I should uninstall PS from the external AND make sure there are no PS files on my laptop.
Then I should install again BUT, make sure everything is installed on the external and not on my laptop.
I appreciate your patience... since I am a newbie.
Thank you and sorry for the loooooong post.
