Attempts at installing Lightroom and Cs5 on new iMac

I just purchased and received a new iMac. I have used one for a few years and had purchased Lightroom 3 and Cs5 for it. Now that I have a new computer, I would like to use both programs with it. But when I insert the cd's to install, nothing happens. Usually, an installation window appears to step me through the process. I tried a Mac software (iWork) that I had used with my other computer and did not have any problems so it's not the computer. I am hoping that I can use these two programs with the new computer, especially since I have several hundred dollars invested in both. Can anyone tell me how to solve this issue? Thanks!

Does your DVD for the installation of the Adobe software works on the Different computer ?
We need what exactly happen when you insert the DVD in your iMac, does it eject out , stays there but you can hear it reading.

Installing Presets in LR3 on New iMac

I just installed Lightroom 3 on a new iMac and I am trying to install my presets from my old computer. I go to library>application support>adobe>lightroom and there is nothing in the lightroom folder. I'm not sure where the information is. The software is definitely installed as I can open and use it. I try to "open in finder" any of the presets already in lightroom but it is not allowing me to do this. Please help! I have several lightroom presets I need to install. I must be missing something.

Next time, see here for file locations.

Download and install the trial version from http://www.adobe.com/downloads.html and activate it with your serial number or Adobe ID.

Backed up Lightroom 2 to a 'backup plus'. Will be installing Lightroom 5 to a new Win 7 computer and want to move only the photos to a dedicated 1 tb drive in the machine. Anyone know Where my actual photos are stored on 'backup plus'? Thank you

Thank you for your reply. I have been backing up my entire computer and when I follow anything having to do with Lightroom I am not finding actual photos. I hope to find the photos that have been backed up along with updates to them that my wife has been performing during her edits. Found Lightroom 2 catalog Previews/Lrdata. Could that be it?

Re-installing Lightroom and Photoshop?

re-installing Lightroom and Photoshop? I had to get a new hard drive

All you need to do is install Adobe Creative Cloud application using which you can download Photoshop as well as Lightroom apps .

My previous computer (with Lightroom 4 installed, teacher edition) broke down, I bought a new one - changing from PC to Apple. I was unable to re-install Lightroom 4 in the new computer.

I was unable to re-install Lightroom 4 in the new computer - the system suggests to contact Adobe. How can I solve the problem? I previously used only one installation.

Hi Ned,
at the very beginning of the installation process. I got the following message: (translation from Italian)Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.pkg cannot be installed because the digital signature is invalid. The certificate has been Invalidated.
As I said, I only installed the software once in my previous PC. The (student/teacher) version was both Windows and Mac compatible.
Thank you
Maurizio

I am trying to install Lightroom and I am OK until it asks for a serial number. I purchased Lightroom from B&H and the have entered the seal number on the the B&H invoice. Nothing happens, not all the entry boxes are filled with the serial number that was provided by B&H. I looked for a serial number on and in the box it came in, nada. Need a bit of help here, what can I do?

Trying to install lightroom and a red x appears

trying to install lightroom and a red x appears in the serial number

Is it a proper serial - 24 digits long and beginning with "1160"?
Is it the right serial for the Lr version you're trying to activate?
Did you buy an "upgrade" serial, when in fact you're installing Lr for the first time and need a full licence rather than an upgrade licence?

I'm attempting to install snow leopard on my 2008 Imac and it stops installing less than 1/4 way through?

I'm attempting to install Snow Leopard on my 2008 Imac and before it 1/4 way done installing, it ejects the disc and restarts the computer. Is there something I am doing wrong?

See:
How to Install OS X Updates Successfully
A. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions:
Boot from your current OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. Then select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.5.2 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
B. Make a Bootable Backup Using Restore Option of Disk Utility:
Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
Select the destination volume from the left side list.
Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
Check the box labeled Erase destination.
Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.
C. Important: Please read before installing:
If you have a FireWire hard drive connected, disconnect it before installing the update unless you will boot from this drive and install the update on it. Reconnect it and turn it back on after installation is complete and you've restarted.
You may experience unexpected results if you have installed third-party system software modifications, or if you have modified the operating system through other means. (This does not apply to normal application software installation.)
The installation process should not be interrupted. If a power outage or other interruption occurs during installation, use the standalone installer (see below) from Apple Downloads to update. While the installation is in progress do not use the computer.
D. To upgrade:
Purchase the Snow Leopard Retail DVD.
Boot From The OS X Installer Disc:
Insert OS X Installer Disc into the optical drive.
Restart the computer.
Immediately after the chime press and hold down the "C" key.
Release the key when the spinning gear below the dark gray Apple logo appears.
Wait for installer to finish loading.
E. If updating:
Download and install update(s)
Use Software Update, or
Download standalone updater(s).

After buying and installing Lightroom and Photoshop...

After buying and installing Lightroom and Photoshop I have the following issues, Lightroom wont even launch and photoshop quits after launching. OS Windows 8. Any tips please?

Contacted customer care on chat and my problem has been partially solved. THis means Lightroom is not launching and works fine after a different download link was supplied. Very helpful. However Photoshop is still not working and CS agent told me that my problem will be forwarded to technical department and that they will call me (number supplied) on Monday. So far no one called. What is my next step please? Any suggestions? I need the program up and running. THanks

Trying to install pse 11 on my new iMac downloaded okay and made it thru the installation registration process then it crashes

Alanh11455686 from the portion of the error you have posted it appears that there maybe some problems updating, removing, or modifying the currently installed color profiles on your computer. I would recommend reviewing the installation logs more closely to confirm that is the case. You can find details on how to locate and interpret the installation log files at Troubleshoot install using logs | Elements. You are welcome to post any specific errors you discover to this discussion.
I am sorry but the only direct support available for Photoshop Elements 11 is if you are facing activation or licensing issues. I believe the current error is resolvable once the offending files/folders have been removed or the file permissions have been updated.
