Adobe has stopped its activation serial numbers for CS2 on servers. If you are a registered user and already in possession of a valid serial number for CS2 then you can (re) download free CS2 to install for example due to a formatted disk. If you are not in this case, you will need to purchase Photoshop CS or the latest version CS6.

Adobe Photoshop CS2 offers the following as a free download for all and already in possession of a valid serial number .

Just have a free account on the Adobe website to be able to legally have the entire suite including

• Acrobat Photoshop CS2,
• Illustrator CS2, Audition 3.0,
• GoLive CS2,
• InDesign CS2,
• InDesign CS2,
• Photoshop CS2,
• Photoshop Elements 5.0 and
• Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0.

Rather than having to manage records serial numbers using a procedure and an out dated server, Adobe has chosen to provide users already owners of a CS2 license and know just an older version of download free declination CS2 well known graphics processing software Photoshop.

This version is completely out dated for those who want to have the latest tools and features to specific versions Photoshop CS5 or Photoshop CS6, but CS2 is ideal for keen amateur designer to learn how to use Photoshop.

Photographers working in JPG will also be filled, those who use the RAW format will be more careful because CS2 does not support the latest versions of Camera Raw and then the files from the latest digital cameras. It is possible in this case against using the Adobe DNG Converter utility that allows easy conversion convert its native RAW files to Adobe DNG RAW format.

Update:

• Adobe has disabled the activation server for CS2 products, including Acrobat 7, because of a technical issue. These products were released more than seven years ago, do not run on many modern operating systems, and are no longer supported.
• Adobe strongly advises against running unsupported and out-dated software. The serial numbers below should only be used by customers who legitimately purchased CS2 or Acrobat 7 and need to maintain their current use of these products.

C language is one of the most widely used programming language.Students in schools and universities are taught C programming language as a introduction to the world of computer programming.Turbo C / Turbo C++ is the standard and easiest compiler used for compiling and executing C programs.

Turbo C works with every versions of Windows till Windows XP.Today, Windows 7 is the most popular OS.You can hardly find anyone who's still using Windows XP or earlier OS.But Windows 7 does not support executing DOS applications.So getting Turbo C compiler work on Windows is pretty difficult.

To make Turbo C work on Windows 7, the only available option was to use DOSBOX - a tiny platform for running DOS applications.Getting Turbo C run through DOSBOX is not easy and you had to repeat the steps every time you run Turbo C.

Fortunately, some developers with good minds have made it easy for us to run Turbo C in Windows 7.There are two versions of Turbo C that works with Windows 7 :

How To Use FBP Facebook Blaster Pro

Does your Windows computer take really long to start-up?

Well, you are not alone with this problem but fortunately, with some minor tweaks, you can get your sluggish Windows to start much faster without re-installing Windows or adding any new hardware.

The logic is fairly simple. Your computer loads quite a few software programs and services during start-up (look at all the icons in your Windows System tray). If you can trim this list, your computer’s boot time will decrease.

I have been testing a free utility called Soluto and it helped reduce the start-up time of my Windows computer from 3.15 minutes to around 1.25 minutes. All this with a few easy clicks and without confusing the user with any technical jargon.

After you install Soluto, it sorts your start-up programs list into three categories:

• No-brainer – remove these programs from start-up with giving a second thought.
• Potentially removable – another list of start-up programs that may also be removed provided you know what these programs do.
• Required – Certain programs and services are required to run Windows properly and therefore should not be removed.

Depending upon the software app, you may then either choose “Pause” to completely remove that app from the start-up queue or choose “Delay” when you want the app to run automatically but not immediately at start-up. Soluto will launch the “delayed” app once the boot up is over and your system is idle.

You can also hover the mouse over any program name and Soluto will display the number of seconds that the app adds to the start-up time. And don’t bother about making mistakes because Soluto has a useful “Undo all” feature that will restore the start-up list to the original state with a click.

Once you are done classifying your start-up programs list, reboot the computer and you should notice a difference between the start-up time.

Where to download Soluto?

The official site for Soluto is soluto.com but in order to download the program, you should head over to mysoluto.com.

Alternatives to Soluto

If you are tech-savvy, you can also use a utility like Sysinternals Autoruns to manually prevent all the non-essential Windows processes and programs from running at start-up.

Just uncheck all the Autorun entries and Services that you don’t wish to load at startup and reboot your system. You’ll however need a separate program to get the “delay” feature which is so handy in Solute.

Microsoft includes a full backup and restores utility with Windows 7. Follow this guide to see how it works.

Backing up your files is one of the most important things you can do to safeguard the data you create and store on your computer. To this end, Microsoft included a full backup and restore utility with Windows 7. Here’s how it works.

Backing Up

First you need to launch Windows' Backup and Restore utility. You will find it in the Control Panel by selecting first System and Security and then Backup and Restore. If you have never used this tool before, you'll see a message under 'Backup' that says 'Windows Backup has not been set up'. Click the link labeled Set up backup to the right of that message.

After the program starts, it will prompt you to choose a location for it to store your backup files in. Windows won't let you choose your main hard drive as a backup drive; so if you haven’t already plugged in your external hard drive, do it now and click Refresh.

After you've chosen the drive that you want to use for your backup, the program will ask you to identify what you want to back up. The default selection is to let Windows choose for you, and create a disk image at the same time. You can be much more selective, however, by clicking the radio button next to Let me choose.

Once you've chosen what you want to back up, and where you want Windows to store it, the program will display a backup summary screen that confirms the options you selected. Before you run your backup, though, you'll probably want to take a look at the default schedule that Windows has set up for you, to confirm that your computer is going to be on at that time of day. If you want to adjust it, click Change schedule and then set it to something more suitable to your schedule.

Finally, click Save settings and run backup. The first backup will be a somewhat lengthy process, but future backups will be quicker, as they will back up only files that have been added or changed since your previous backup.

Restoring From Backup

Restoring files from your backup is fairly simple. First, launch the Backup and Restore utility, (as described above); then decide whether to restore all of your files, or just specific files that may have been deleted or become corrupt.

To restore all of your backed-up data, click Restore my files, followed by Browse for folders. Next, on the left side, look for the folder bearing the name of your backup. Click that folder, and then click Add folder. Once you've added the folder to your restore list, click Next and choose whether you want the files restored to the original location or to a new location. Finally, click Restore to bring back all of your data.

To restore specific files, first click Restore my files, and then click Browse for files. Navigate to your backup folder, and choose the individual files that you want. Again, the program will ask you whether you want to restore the files to their original location or to a new location. Once you decide where you want them, click Restore to recover the data you selected.

Unsure about the name of the file you want? Click Restore my files, and then use the Search button to examine your backup for the keywords that you type into the search field. In the search results, locate the files you need, add them to the restore list, and restore them as described above.

TeamViewer is a free app that lets you remotely connect to a PC or Mac. Check out our guide to see how the software works.

Have you ever been somewhere and wanted to show a family photo or retrieve a document, only to realize that the file is on a home computer? The more connected our devices become, the more they increase our desire to access our information anywhere.

But while mobile devices increasingly outsell traditional computers, a lot of our most important information continues to be stored on stationary home desktops or laptops, which don't offer convenient access from just anywhere because of home firewalls. Even when you're on a home network, having to move to a particular device on the other side of the house can be annoying.

Software engineers have come up with an easier way to gain access from afar. Using simple software, you can see and control a remote computer on another device that you're currently using--even from a different computer network. All you typically need is a working Internet connection for both devices.

Various methods and applications can enable this functionality for your devices. In this guide, we'll focus on TeamViewer, a popular program that offers compatibility with Windows, Mac, and even some Smartphone operating systems. Here's how to use it.

Install the Software on the First Computer

1. Download the TeamViewer app from the company's website  to the computer that you want to control remotely. In most cases, the full version will suffice; it's free for noncommercial users.
2. After completing the download, launch the installer.
3. Select Install and then Next.
4. For personal use, select personal/noncommercial and then click Next.
5. Accept the license and usage agreement by selecting both checkboxes and clicking Next.
6. For installation type, select Yes to install the host listening software on the current computer; then click Next. The software will now be installed.
7. The app will prompt you to set up unattended access. Click Next, set a descriptive name and password for the computer, and click Next again.
8. Now you need to create a Teamviewer account, to permit easy, secure access to any of your devices that you want to reach. Fill in a username, email address, and password to create the account, and then click Next.
9. Click Finish to complete the setup.

The computer will now be running listening software that waits for approved devices to connect to it, and that can also connect to other computers you configure.

Install the Software on the Second Computer

1. Download TeamViewer from the company's website or from PCWorld's Downloads to another computer that you want to connect to or from. Once the download is complete, launch the app's installer.
2. Select Install and then Next.
3. For personal use, select personal/noncommercial and then click Next.
4. Accept the license and usage agreement by selecting both checkboxes and clicking Next.
5. For installation type, select Yes to install the host listening software on the current computer; then click Next. The software will now be installed.
6. The app will prompt you to set up unattended access. Click Next, set a descriptive name and password for the computer, and click Next again.
7. Select I already have a TeamViewer account. Fill in the username and password that you created previously, and then click Next. Click Finish to complete the setup.

The second computer will now be running listening software that waits for approved devices to connect to it, and can also connect to other computers you configure.

Remotely Connect to One Computer From the Other

With the software is installed at both ends, connecting to the remote computer (typically called the host) from the computer/device where you are currently located (typically called the guest) should be easy.

1. Launch the software on the guest.
2. Enter your TeamViewer account login credentials, and log in.
3. A list of computers associated with your account will be appear in the My Partners list; one of them will be the host computer that you configured earlier. Double-click the name of the remote computer that you want to connect to.
4. Your remote computer's display will appear in a window, just as if you were sitting directly in front of it. Use the keyboard/mouse/touchpad/touchscreen of your current device to interact with it as you normally would. The software will take your local input and send it to your remote computer, which will then send its display back to your current device in real-time. (Note: For security reasons, some keys and key combinations won't go directly to your remote host, like Ctrl-Alt-Del for Windows. TeamViewer enables you to send these special keys and combinations through its software Actions menu.)
5. When you're done accessing your remote computer, close the window to end the session.

TeamViewer will typically work without any additional firewall configuration between devices on any computer network (and even between different ones), as long as both are connected to the Internet. And because it's compatible with many different devices, you can do neat things like control your Mac from Windows, your Windows PC from a Mac, or even your computer from your iOS/Android phone!

3.QEMU

QEMU is a good replacement for VMWare. QEMU is more of a machine emulator than virtualization software. It does supports virtualization too, but need either Xen Hypervisor or KVM Kernel module in Linux. As a machine emulator, it lets you run programs made in one OS to run in another OS. When used for virtualization, it executes guest code directly on host CPU, and thus gives near to native performance.
