Adobe products on a new computer

I want to install my Dreamweaver MX 6.1 and Photoshop Elements 8 (now on my old computer under Windows XP) on my new computer under Windows 7.  The Adobe "Chat" help told me in effect "sorry, no go, buy a new version". Actually, this seems to me like conscious fraud on the part of Adobe.
But anyway, does anyone have a better idea of how I can use the software that I paid for?

You can try installing it. It isn't supported or tested in modern OS's so you might end up with some issues.
You will likely need this page to activate anything...
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/macromedia-legacy-activation-error.html
Adobe took down the actual activation servers for MX a long, long time ago. MX is over 12 years old, which is ancient by any software producer's standpoint, especially for anything web related.
Unless you do a lot of hand coding and work in Source View, pretty much exclusively, you won't be able to produce anything up to modern HTML standards with DWMX.

  • When installing Adobe Acrobat on my new computer I get the message that the serial number is invalid.

    I try to install Adobe Acrobat on my new computer, but I get a message that the serial number (the one I found in My Account) is invalid.
    I have already deactivated Adobe Acrobat on my old computer.

    first make sure you are installing the right product from the original disks/saved download, as there are multiple similar products. Did you buy direct from Adobe?

    Hi, I need to activate my Adobe CS3 on a new computer because my old one died and I'm having difficulty. Tried the normal registration way and then logged in with my Adobe ID and can see the software and activation code already registered. How to get it on my computer registered?

    If your two activation are in use you need to call Adobe. Install CS3 to to point of activation and call Adobe at that point.  They have help me in cases like your My Disk crashed and I replaced it. Could not deactivate the crash activation.  I done that twice over the years I've been using  PS for around 20 years
    To see your key you need to click on the product in your Adobe products and services page.

    What version of Premiere Elements do you have and on what computer operating system was it running on and will it be running on?
    On how many computers do you already have this same purchased activated serial number? Assuming just the computer that crashed?
    If just that one crashed computer, then just install the program from your installation files or installation disc.
    But, make sure your installation files or installation disc for the crashed computer will be supported by the new computer.
    If you already have the same purchased activated serial number on two computers (crashed and another one), then you will need to deactivate
    this purchased activated serial number for the other non crashed computer before trying to install on the new computer.
    We can give you more details on Deactivation once we know the program version.
    Adobe allows the purchased activated serial number on no more than 2 of your computers. And you cannot use them at the same time.
    Please review. If any questions or need clarification, please ask.
    Thank you.

    Add On...If more sorting out is required, then Adobe will need to do it since it is the only one to take care of activation issues. We are not Adobe.
    Rather user to user forum.

  • Can I move my current Adobe programs to a new computer?

    Can I move my currently-installed Adobe programs to my new computer? If so, what are the steps?
    Thanks!

    You do not move, you need to install them properly using your original install media or downloaded installers and the serial numbers. Deactivate your programs on your old system, too, using Help --> Deactivate. When you install, obey the correct version order - older versions before newer ones to avoid conflicts. That's all there is to do. if you encounter specific problems, come back to this forum.

  • I currently run the Design and Web Premium CS6 on a first generation MacBook Air and want to buy a new MacBook Pro. How do I know whether I can install my Adobe programs onto the new computer? Because I know there is some kind of limit.

    I currently run the Design and Web Premium CS6 on a first generation MacBook Air and want to buy a new MacBook Pro. How do I know whether I can install my Adobe programs onto the new computer? Because I know there is some kind of limit.
    Also, I had to install the software twice on my same computer before because I had to reboot the computer. I don't know if this affects the limit.

    You are allowed to have two activated installations so there should not be a problem having working installations on the two machines.  If by chance you have somehow tied up two activations for the one machine you can have Adobe support help resolve that thru chat.

    Install it the same way you originally installed it.  If you need to download the installations files or get your serial number you should check your Adobe account online.
    You can also find a good amount of Adobe files downloadable thru the following page...
