New Computer Windows 8 without CD Rom Drive, CS5 Extended Student and Teacher Download and Install

I have a new laptop with Windows 8, and like most new computers it does not have a CD Rom drive. I have deactivated CS5 Extended Student and Teacher Edition from my old computer (since I am only allowed one computer at a time) and would like to install and activate on my new machine. I am in possession of the original cd, product key and serial number, however the email that I originally used to get the serial number no longer exists. I have created a new Adobe ID with my new email address.
I read a forum that suggested that I download a trial, and then activate that trial with my serial number. I followed those steps with the closest version I could find, which was CS5, and though my computer said the files downloaded, nothing was installed... and I cant figure out how to install... and I am concerned that I dont have the same version in the trial as the CD that I own. Any advice would be greatly appreciated- most of the reason I wanted a faster computer was so I could run my photoshop on there!!!!

  • How can I transfer from iPod (16GB) to new computer (Windows 7) without erasing iPod?

    My old computer (Windows 7) died and I have a new computer (Windows 7). I had my iTunes library backed up, but I can't get it to work on my new computer. Is there a way to transfer what is on my iPod Touch (16 gb) to my new computer without losing it on the iPod?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Not with iSync, that's for sure. You should post your question in an appropriate iTunes forum here:

  • How to install Photoshop CS5 Extended Student and Teacher edition on a MacBook with no CD drive

    I just recently purchased a MacBook, making the switch from PC to Mac, and I notice that my copy of PsCS5 Extended Educational edition, which is a CD, won't work on my MacBook because there is no CD drive. I even tried using my product key on a downloadable version of the same software but the best I could find is a non-educational version of the software and my product key won't work on it. How would I go about installing this on my MacBook without purchasing the $200 software again? Thanks in advance!

    There isn't much good news to offer.  The first mention below is probably your only shot without purchase, unless you could find someone to transfer licenses with.
    You won't be able to install a Windows version on the Mac unless you install some Windows emulation software on the Mac.
    You won't be able to activate a Mac version of the software on the machine because your license/serial number is only valid for Windows.
    CS5 is too old to qualify for a platform swap and Adobe no longer sells CS5 so you would have to take your chances with a third party vendor if you decided to purchase a Mac version.
    Just to clarify, there is no such thing as a student version of the software... the license dictates the status of the software.  So you won't be able to find a student version either

  • My old computer had itunes and downloaded songs that I put on my ipod. My old computer got replaced years ago without saving hard drive info or passwords and my iPod burnt out and will not activate. How can I get access to my old songs on new computer.

    My old computer had itunes and downloaded songs that I put on my ipod. Well, my old computer got replaced years ago without saving hard drive info or passwords and my iPod burnt out years ago and will not activate. I now have a new computer and iPod and I have an iTunes account on my iPhone5. How can I get access to my old songs on new computer? Are they lost for good? I have no info about my old computer and old account.

  • New computer-windows 7; old computer DW 2004

    Hello
    Question: What will happen to my 1,000 webpages that I made in 2003 on my old XP computer now that I have a new computer Windows 7 that I cannot put the disc to Macromedia DW2004 in and register it again.
    Adobe told me I cannot even upgrade unless I have Version 8. Mine is only Version 7. I dont know when they bought DW, but now I dont have the money to buy the $399 new version.
    Can some one tell me If I can find an old Version 8 to upgrade to the Adobe version, will my 1,000 pages of files transfer over, if i did  upgrade to a Version of Adobe DW? Is the format a lot different, and how would I do that; How would I get the pages and all those years of work if I cannot even put the old disc into the new computer?
    Thanks
    Jeannie

    Called Adobe and they said nothing prior to Version 8 is supported by them,
    and that I cannot register my 2004 as it is to old. Only Version 8 is
    supported. They said I would have to upgrade in 30 days anyway to CS 5.5.
    I don’t know what the Microsoft Designer is, and I cant imagine my files of
    1,000 pages plus all the other stuff in image folders would transfer over
    just like that.
    This is news to me.  Inserting CD in the drive requires a serial number but this is not the same as Activation.  However, since you are going to upgrade soon don't worry about it.
    Your 1,000 pages can easily be copied on to a flash/pen drive on your USB port and this can be used as a backup.  You may not know this but the website files are very simple text files and you can read then and change them by using Windows Notepad or something similar.
    Sharepoint Designer is a program that can help you edit your files; very much like DW is doing for you ate the moment.  I find sharepoint better than DW!  I also get a free edition of Microsoft Expression (currently version 4) because I contribute to their forums quite a lot under different guises!  If price is the factor than clearly M$ product wins all the time.  DW has many extensions while M$ products don't have any.

  • RE: Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive by wjosten

    I really appreciate the detail that wjosten provides on the User Tip entitled "Syncing to a New Computer or Replacing a crashed hard drive".  I do have a follow up question though about my wife's iPhone 4 running iOS 5.1.1.  All her calendar and contacts are on the Cloud - not running through anything like Outlook or Windows Address Book, as far as I can tell.  In the past, we previously synched with a PC. 
    Since the calendar and contacts are on the Cloud, can we synch using the steps wjosten details on a new PC and not lose the calendar / contacts?  If not, do you have any advise?  Thanks.

    If she doesn't want to sync her calendar and contacts with a supported program on her computer such as Outlook, just uncheck Sync Calendar and Sync Contacts on the Info tab of her iTunes sync setting before syncing (which I assume is what she was doing before).  She can continue to sync these with iCloud if that what she prefers by going to Settings>iCloud and turning Contacts and Calendars to On).

  • Transfer all files from old computer (windows 7 ) to new computer windows 8.2

    Bill, welcome to the forum.
    Here is an explanation as to why you aren't finding any information on Easy Transfer in Win 8.1:
    "Windows Easy Transfer is weakened in Windows 8.1
    Another program that’s been around for decades, Windows Easy Transfer seems to be on its way out in Windows 8.1. Windows Easy Transfer provided an easy way to move your files from your old computer to your new one by connecting an Easy Transfer Cable, a portable hard drive, or providing a network location.
    Windows 8.1 accepts Windows Easy Transfer files stored on a portable drive, but it doesn’t support the Easy Transfer Cable or the network location. And the Windows 8.1 version of Windows Easy Transfer can import only old files; it can’t export files to another PC."
    Also, here is a guide that will help you determine which programs that you are using in Vista will be compatible with Win 8.1.
    Personally, I have upgraded my computer from Win 7 Pro to Win 8 Pro and then to Win 8.1.  I haven't found any programs that don't run in Win 8.1.  I hope you have the same fortune.
