How to install a CS3 cd in my mac

OK, This can look like a silly question but I really need to be using this program by sunday and i have no ideia how to install it in my mac. I need help
so i got the 4 disks to install CS3 ( adobecreative 3 master collection)
but i dont know how to install it. i put the disk 1 and nothing happen so i open the cd andi can see the files but i can not install it.
please help!

Hi and welcome to Discussions,
is this the Mac OSX or the Windows version of CS3 ?
If this is the Mac version, then there should be an Installer on the first CD.
If this is the Windows version you have to install Windows before you can install any kind of Windows executable program.
BootCamp http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/ or VirtualBox http://www.virtualbox.org/ are two possibilities to install Windows on a Intel-based Mac.
Both are free.
Another two are Parallels or VMWare Fusion. Both costs.
All four requires that you a valid Windows license/CD to install Windows.
Regards
Stefan

  • How to install Windows XP in parallel with Mac OS on a Macbook?

    Can anyone tell me how to install Windows XP in parallel with Mac OS on a Macbook?
    If I divide the hard drive into 2 patritions and install Win XP & Mac OS on each patrition, is it ok?

    I don't think he meant "Parallels", I think he just meant "parallel", with a little 'p'.
    There are three options for running Windows software on an Intel-based Mac:
    Virtualization: you can install software such as Parallels or VMWare (along with a licensed copy of Windows) which will emulate the environment necessary to run Windows software. Performance is significantly degraded, but you can work with both Windows and Mac software simultaneously.
    Dual boot: You can use Apple's Bootcamp to partition your drive and create a CD of Windows drivers for your devices, so that you can then install Windows on one partition of your drive. Your Windows software will run just as it does on any other Windows PC, but you have to reboot to switch between Windows and OS X.
    Crossover: Crossover is a product that allows you to run Windows programs in OS X without installing Windows. Not all Windows software will work with Crossover though.

  • Does anyone know how I install Microsoft office onto an I Mac or if I even need it.

    Does anyone know how I install Microsoft office onto an I Mac or if I even need it.

    If you need to write or modify documents made with Word, Excel, or Powerpoint, then you need Office. Otherwise, you don't. If you already have it then installation just involves double-clicking on the Office Installer's icon.
    You may want to consider as well:
    These two suites are similar to Libre Office but not as current or as well-supported:
    NeoOffice
    Open Office
    And, then there is Apple's iWork suite:
    Pages - word processing and layout
    Keynote - presentation
    Numbers - spreadsheet
    Each can open and save Office compatible files. They may be purchased separately via the Mac App Store for $19.99 each.
    (Access to the Mac App Store requires Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or higher and an Apple ID.)

    This forum is for troubleshooting Apple Software Update for Windows, a software package for Windows designed to update Apple products that run on Windows, and not related to Microsoft Office in any way. I suggest you post Office related questions on Microsoft's own forums for their Mac products.

  • How to install PS CS3 for Windows on my new iMac? [was:New computer]

    I have a new iMAC and would like to download Photoshop CS3 extended. I had before a PC and I have the serial number. Is there a way? I really need to install it and dont mind to upgrade it.

    I didn't deactivate the account in my old pc because it is broken and cannot get it. Maybe is that the resaon why doesn't work?
    Not related.
    The reason it doesn't work is because perptually licensed products (such as your CS3 for Windows) are always issued with serial numbers specific to your operating system. Mac only serial numbers cannot be used on Windows. Likewise Windows serials cannot be used on Macs.
    In short, you cannot install your CS3 Windows on your new iMac.
    Your best option to get Photoshop on your iMac now is to join the Cloud, which you can do at a discounted monthly fee since you're a CS3 owner.
    If you own Photoshop CS3 standalone retail version - not a suite or an educational version - then you could do it for $9.99/month and get Photoshop CC + Lightroom 5 + extras

  • How to Install Elements 12 from Download onto MAC

    I have a new MAC and not over familiar with the OS (10.9.2) i have just downloaded Elements 12 but can't figure out how to install it. There is a setup.exe file but that won't run on MAC what am i missing or is there a separate MAC version i should of downloaded vice a windows one ?

    For mac you should have a file ending .dmg not .exe (this is the windows download). Just use the trial: http://www.adobe.com/go/tryphotoshop_elements and license this version with the serial found in the Adobe portal (Find your serial number quickly) Have fun with the software!
