Adobe CS3.3 update discs will not read

I have a brand new iMac running 10.5.2 and the update discs for CS3.3 design standard (from CS2) will not even read in the computer. I've tried three different sets of software and not one disc in any pack will even show up in the computer. Other discs (music, software and dvd movies) show up with no problem. I called tech support and received a new set of discs today. same problem. please help.

Buy a firewire DVD drive and get back to work. I have a new iMac and use a LaCie Porsche external DVD drive since it is faster and frankly a lot easier to use on the desktop than the slot is.

  • G4 eMac will not read OS X v 10.4 disc

    Hi All
    I ahve a eMac G4 700MHz with combo drive and I'm trying to put OSX v 10.4 on to it but the combo drive will not read the disc. I can put a DVD (film)in and watch that and it will also play CD's.

    iMac 17inch Duo 2GHZ   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   Have got an eMac G4 as well

    Hi All
    Still got the problem. I don't think its the drive,
    because it plays DVD's CD's etc, even the disc's from
    the Mac magazines. The DVD seems clean. I've run a
    disc cleaner in the drive. Still no joy.
    I can start the eMac up and it will boot up OK - OS X
    10.2.8 The drive will read the DVD, as I can see the
    'Max OS X Install DVD' window open up with the
    install icon in the centre of the screen.
    What about copying the DVD on to en external drive
    and the trying to install from that. Would it work??
    Thnks for your help, so far.
    Regards

    Hi Lee
    Had exactly the same when attempting to update eMac to 10.4, very interesting.
    Had to use a faster drive, as the one in my eMac was reading the 10.4 dvd too slowly.
    Nothing wrong with disc, nor drive except it was too slow.
    if you have a hard drive in bootable firewire external box and copying disc across to it doesnt work, (probably wont) then try borrowing a 2005 era or later dvd drive and using that in the external box.
    For the purposes of the excersize, it wont matter if the dvd drive is not supported for burning (least mine isnt) so dont let that put you off having a go.
    If all else fails, talk to Apple to see what their techs can do. (Apparently there is a service which supplies 10.4 on CD Rom. And they might be able to load from the DVD for you. They can put in a faster drive. Dont know about the price of that.

  • Adobe 11 will not read my files.

    I have downloaded Adobe 11 several times, with and without the anti-virus set, and though it recognises my files Microsoft reports it had 'encountered a problem and is closing it down' when I try to open them.  When I restore the system to Adobe 9 it opens my old files but, obviously, not those in '11' format.  Any ideas?

    Well, it's like this.  Someone sends me some printed  information.  A bill.
    A report ,  It downloads.  I try  to open it and it tells me I need Adobe
    Reader 11 to do so and gives me a  link.  .  I download from the link.  It
    takes an age but in the  end it tells me I have successfully downloaded Adobe
    Reader 11. When I try to  open the file Microsoft tells me they have
    encountered a problem and are closing  it down.  When I try to open any of my
    saved Adobe Reader files I then  get the same message.  I have to use System
    Restore to get the facility of  Adobe Reader 9  back.  Then it opens my saved
    files again.

  • Adobe Reader will not read pdf files on internet

    I have lastest version of Adobe reader on a new mac running OS 10 Maverick. This has latest safari (7.0.1) as my internet browser. My adobe reader reads pdf files already present on my desktop, but will not read pdf files from the internet even after I allow "trust" this site. Can anyone help me to resolve the issue please. Is it a bug that Adobe has not solved??

    Sorry if you did not understand my instructions.
    Regarding bullet point 4: Check Reader >Preferences > Internet > Web Browser Options> The blessed app should be " /Applications/Adobe Reader.app"
    You specified that you don't see the path, then it might be some problem in your installation.
    Please see the attached image and let me know what you see on your system.
    Regarding bullet point 5: Load PDF in Safari.
    This means open any PDFs in Safari web browser.
    Please make sure the below highlighted plug-ins are installed on your system by going to the specified path. And make sure the version of the below two plug-ins are 11.0.06. You can find the version by selecting the plugin and hit Command+i.
    Go to your Main Hard Disk/Library/ Internet Plug-Ins/ AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin
    Go to your Main Hard Disk/Library/ Internet Plug-Ins/ AdobePDFViewer.plugin

  • PC will not read disc which came with N95 8GB Phon...

    Upgraded to N95 8GB. So far so good, then !!!. Came back from hols to link with PC to find that the CD drive and DVD drive will not read the disc which came with the phone. PC will still read other discs but not the Nokia disc. What is the disc format and can I get what is on the disc elsewhere?

    It's probably just a damaged disc. You can download the PC Suite software from www.nokia.com/pcsuite, as far as I know you can't get replacement CDs.

  • I've installed Adobe Reader twice and it still will not read a PDF file. What's up?

    I've installed Adober Reader twice now and it still will not read a PDF. What's up?

    I have the same problem. Adobe Reader worked fine until the last few days. I run Windows 7 and all I get is a small black cross in the top left corner of the screen. I can open downloaded pdf files, but not anything new from the internet.
    I uninstalled and reinstalled the program and have run every type of scan I know of without any change.
    This seems to be a common and recent problem, so I would like to know what's being done about it.

  • Adobe Acrobat XI will NOT read aloud any pdf files

    Ever since I upgraded to Marvericks, Adobe Acrobat XI will NOT read aloud any pdf files. How can I fix this. It previously worked fine.
    I create tagged pdf files in InDesign to be compatible with 508 accessibility standards.The files read aloud on a Mac with OS X Lion but not on Mavericks.

    no, still no resolution. It is very frustrating. I did have one 8 page document that it will read the first page but nothing else.
    Did you find an answer?

  • MacBook Pro optical drive will not read discs

    My 2011 17" MacBook Pro will not read discs. Whenever i inject a disc, it does not start spinning and ejects after about one second.

  • I updated to FCP X 1.6, now my projects and events will not read

    I chose the option update projects and events upon launching 1.6. Now my hard drive is being read as a camera, and I can't load my old events and projects. Strangely when I first open FCP, it appears to read the projects and events, and opens showing the drive and events, but then they simply disappear. Any ideas how to load the events and projects?
    P.S. I tried going back to 1.5, but now that I chose the update events it will not read.

    You have a folder at the root of your hard drive that is confusing FCP X.
    Common names are "Private", "DCIM", "Video", and others.
    Rename or put the offending folder inside another folder (i.e. not at the root of the hard drive).
