Can CS5 be downloaded to a new computer using Windows 8.1?

I have a new computer which uses Windows 8.1, and I am trying to download CS5. According to the system requirements, Windows 7 is needed. Can this be circumvented or is there an adaption of some sort to get it done?

Yes, it should run fine on Windows 8.1. Install from your disc or you can find the installers here: Download CS5 products. Either way, have your serial number ready.

  • Problems downloading Photoshop Elements 9 software to my new computer using Windows 8

    Can someone please assist me in getting my software to work on my new computer.
    I have installed the disc...... almost at the end of installation the computer froze and eventually after a couple of hours, I removed the disc and interupted the installation.  I switched the computer off and restarted. I then tried to uninstall.... but then was prompted to put the disc back in to unistall, but the program looked like it was trying to install again!
    Eventually after waiting for about half an hour, nothing was happening and i have given up.  I just want to use my software! 
    i then went into the Control Panel>All control panel Items>troubleshooting> selected> system and security> fix problems with windows update - now I can actually open the photoshop version.... but when I trying to do something to the photo, an error appeared and shut down the photoshop!
    Basically can I use this software with my new windows 8 computer?  If not is it possible to download and pay for an upgraded version so I can use with Windows 8?
    Any assistance would be much appreciated.

    Hi There
    Thanks for your reply.  The error messages i can find are as follows:-
    ERROR 1705. A previous installation for this product is in progress. You must undo the changes made by that installation to continue.  Do you want to undo those changes?
    YES or NO
    then I found this

    This is very frustrating
    I have just done what you suggested to turn off the UAC and turned off the security.  when you say run as admin - what do you mean?
    Thanks again for any response.

  • How long should itunes download take on new computer with windows 7 64 bit ie8?

    I bought a new computer and need to sync my iphone with it.  I'm getting a msg that it has 17+ hrs left to download itunes......seems too long and wonder what I'm doing wrong. thx.

    Try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:

    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • Can't restore my system on new computer using rescue and recovery

    Hi there,
    Yesterday I got my Thinkpad Edge stolen from my apartment. I had been keeping backups of my system on external USB HDD  using lenovo's rescue and recovery tool. Today I got a new Thinkpad edge and been runing the rescue and recovery tool but I am unable to see my backups. What can I do? How do I recover my info? Please HELP!
    Jorge
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    How awesome that you took the time to answer and that you knew the answer. THANK YOU! I called lenovo support and they told me that if I didn't see the backups they were gone for good...that I had probably not saved them properly in the first place. I went to 2 computer technicians who were charging me as much as $400 and weren't sure they could fix the problem. The key thing in your answer, was "click on the checkbox that lets you see all your backups"...I had missed that before. 
    So now I'm finished running a full system restore. However, now when I power up my machine it tells me that the operating system is missing. Is there anyway to fix that? My previous machine was a thinkpad edge 14, this one is a thinkpad edge e420...is that why is not recognizing the operating system? In the meantime, I'm again running the rescue and recovery software from a CD to copy the files in the restored local hard drive to an external location...hope that made sense.

  • Can't install Acrobat 8 on New Computer w/Windows 7 64bit

    The install hangs near to completion when tryng to load "Reader for Word.smrd"
    It says "Error 1305. Error ready from file C:\Program Files(x86)\Adobe\Acrobata 8.0\PDFMaker\Office\Reader for Word.smrd. Verify that file exists and that you can access it."
    Please help if you can. Thanks!

    You may be somewhat successful if you update AA8. 64bit systems required at least AA8.2 under XP as I recall. Some folks have been successful with AA8 on Win7, not sure about the 64bit version. However, it is not supported and you will likely run into something along the way that fails. Since PDFMaker is mentioned, that will lilkely not work anyway with a new machine. I am assuming that you probably have OFFICE 2010 with the new system that requires AA X.

  • ADE 2.0 completes download but doesnt install or launch on new computer using windows 8 os

    I just get the message in the yellow box that the installer download has completed but nothing else happens

    Which operating system?
    If Vista, see hint at top of the forum:
    If you are installing Adobe Digital Editions on Windows Vista please see Installing Adobe Digital Editions 2.0 in Windows Vista - http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-editions/kb/installing-digital-editions -20-windows.html for a workaround to allow the installation.
    If XP, try installing V1.7.2 instead.
    A lot of people have been having similar issues on XP with ADE2.0 (as well as several other problems with it as well).
    I suggest installing the older version 1.7.2  which seems more reliable.
    Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.

  • How do I get my Officejet 8600 to scan to my new computer using windows 8

    I have tried the print and scan doctor but i can't find a way to re enable the scan function for the printer.  It says that it has beeb disabled,

    Hi @thostetter, 
    Welcome to the HP Forum. 
    I understand you are having an issue scanning from your officejet 8600 to your new windows 8.1 computer. I would like to help you with this. 
    On your windows 8.1 computer, goto your desk top.
    Here you should see an icon that looks like your printer named HP Officejet Pro 8600.
    Click this icon.
    It will open the printer assistant.  
    Here you should see an option to Manage Scan to Computer. 
    Select this option and enable scan to computer. 
    If this does not work or I have misunderstood the issue, please let me know. 
    Also, how is your printer communicating with the computer? wireless, LAN, or USB? 
    Hope this helped
