Mac Edit the file /etc/hosts help please!
October 19th, 2013
I need to input this:
Edit the file /etc/hosts by adding the following lines between
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost and ::1localhost lines.
127.0.0.1 pdfm7.blist.parallels.com
127.0.0.1 pdfm7.vl.parallels.com
127.0.0.1 registration.parallels.com
127.0.0.1 update.parallels.com
But my thing looks like this:
# Host Database
#
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting. Do not change this entry.
##
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 activate.adobe.com
127.0.0.1 practivate.adobe.com
127.0.0.1 ereg.adobe.com
127.0.0.1 activate.wip3.adobe.com
127.0.0.1 wip3.adobe.com
127.0.0.1 3dns-3.adobe.com
127.0.0.1 3dns-2.adobe.com

127.0.0.1 adobe-dns-3.adobe.com
127.0.0.1 ereg.wip3.adobe.com
127.0.0.1 activate-sea.adobe.com

Do those Adobe registration blocking entries work for you? Do they keep your Adobe software activated?
Mighty_Marvel replied: Do those Adobe registration blocking entries work for you? Do they keep your Adobe software activated?
I have all those in my Hosts file (except for the last four but I just added them just in case) plus many more. I have Master Collection CS5 installed and had it installed around the time Master Collection CS5 was been released. I have been able to run/install updates (right now, they’re all up-to-date; just checked) and not have any problems with any Adobe product de-activating.
Here is what I have in my Hosts file for Adobe: (EDIT: I’m on Windows. Not sure if this matters [doubt it] Just realized OP is on MAC)

Yes, I know they work on windows because I have used them as the only method of cracking it for a very long time and I have never had any problems. However I know of someone using a Mac who hasn’t been so lucky and wondered whether it was just his system or whether Mac registration uses different servers.
Your list is even longer than mine because of all those vip entries
