Can I download and activate software but use the license key on the box?

I purchased a new laptop. It has no DVD or CD-ROM drive. I purchased Photoshop CS3 and Acrobat Pro8 with my old laptop. Can I download the software from the Adobe site and activate it with the software key on the box?

The serial number should put an end to the trial period. If it is still presenting it as a trial, select whichever option is presented for using a serial number / key to activate it and that should alleviate the issue.
If you should have an issue getting it to activate, contact Adobe Support either by chat or via phone.
Here are some links to help make contact:

Why can I download and install CS6beta but the program does not activate???

Why can I download and install CS6beta but the program refuses to be activated on the idiotic grounds that either I am not connected to the internet or my computer clock is not showing the right time? If in New Zealand we're not allowed to use the beta, why does Adobe not have the decency and courtesy of telling us so and why instead of feeding us with those stupid putoffs???

I had a note from PS Pattie ; I can't find it here. Anyhow, these were her questions and my answers:
Q:Did you download from this location? http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/photoshopcs6/
A: Yes
Q:Did you select TRY and enter your Adobe ID?
A: I was then asked to "Sign in". I pressed the sign and got the following reaction:
Please connect to the internet and retry. Either your computer is offline or the clock on your computer is set incorrectly, causing a connection error. An internet connection is required. Please connect to the internet or adjust your clock and try again. If this problem persist, please contact Customer Support. I did so and was told "This page is not available"
Q: Did you try to download again and install?
A: Yes, three times – each time 1.71GB. I tried many other devices; none worked.

Hi maplefox, it would be a great help to the communities if you were to include:
1: the equipment you're using and any software you're currently running
2; a brief synopsis of what apps or software you're trying to download.
At the bottom of any community members' replies it will have a brief list of the equipment they have and whatever software they're running.
Could you please be more concise with the details of what you are trying to do, and we are more than happy to help. Even more experienced members have problems from time to time.
It would also help if you could take a screenshot to illustrate what you are experiencing.
To do that, if you are using a keyboard, press 'Command', 'shift' and '4'. A 'crosshair' looking like a gunsight will appear on your screen. With your mouse, or trackpad, finger depressed, move the crosshair to the onscreen image, move the crosshair across (from the top left corner) and drag down (to the bottom right corner) until you've covered the area you want to show and just release your finger. the screen shot will appear on your screen. To show it as part of your query page, click on the camera icon and a window will appear asking you to choose an image or file. Click on the screen shot, and then click on 'Insert. Job done.

I have Lion and I have an iPad. The contacts on the two machines are not properly linked using iCloud (I can create groups and add names, but sometimes the names are not updated between the machines)

The problem I am seeing is that there are contacts on the iPad that are not showing up on the Mac

On the iPad, look in contacts and see if you have more than one group. If it says "all contacts" on the top and there is no red slash to chose lists, then you have just one group. If you see the slash and can choose contact groups, then obviously you have more than one. You probably have a mail account on the iPad setup for contacts and iCloud also setup for contacts.
Go to that mail account on your computer and export those contacts to a vCard file, and import that to iCloud contacts (using the web interface for each). Now with one list, turn contacts off for that account on your iPad so you don't see duplicates.

Can time machine and carbon copy cloner use the same backup drive?

Can time machine and CCC use the same esata backup drive?

Yes, but you will need to first partition the drive so that TM and CCC will backup to their own respective volumes. This way the CCC volume can accommodate a bootable clone.
Be sure the TM volume has adequate space. A TM backup volume should have about twice the capacity of the volume it backs up.

How can I mute and unmute my Mic using the button ...

I have a button on my mic that is a play/pause button. It works fine when playing music on my phone. Can I use this button to mute and unmute my mic when using skype? The Volume up and down buttons already work. Thanks

That cable set up you have is probably not going to work. The iOS devices seem a little sensitive to having the right connector for the right job. I have the USB connector (and the HDMI one too) which is in 2 parts: mini USB link and SD. My older Nikon D70s does not use SD cards, so I use the cable. When connected any images on the card (in the camera) are displayed in the built-in Photo app in an Imports album. Just touch the Import button and all are brought in. I use RAW and have found that the RAW images are transferred to the computer (MacBook Pro + Aperture) when I get home. A comparison (I kept the images on the card and imported from that too) shows that the resolution/size is identical. As an additional note as you mentioned this, video clips work the same.
With all the connectors, I carry a small bag for the devices I work with.

Can visitors download full-sized photos without using the iWeb photo page?

Neither the photo page nor album page suits the needs of my site, so here's what I would like to do:
Import my pictures into a blank page. Instruct visitors to right click to save.
Will they be saving a full-size version of the photo? Or will it save a thumbnail?
An alternative is to make the thumbnail itself a link to a page with a larger version of the same photo.
By not using a pre-formatted photo or album page, I do not have access to the iWeb download photo quality selector (it's grayed out in the menu).
Thanks for your help.

The quality that you upload will be the quality that viewers can download.

My iphone is synced with my mac. I want to download a wma audiobook but not possible on my mac. I have a pc also. Can i download and transfer to my iPhone on my pc without messing up my sync with my mac?

How do I download and transfer a wma audiobook to my iphone when it is set up to sync to my macbook pro? I have a pc that I can download my book to, but I don't want to mess up my sync with my mac?

The way to get Wma files on your iPhone takes a little bit of jiggering, but follow me: either install iTunes on a PC or partition your Mac and install XP there, then install iTunes for Windoz. Now, download Overdrive. Go to your library site, or wherever you get your WMA's and download with Overdrive, got that? Now open iTunes, and plug in your iPhone and check Manually Manage Music in iTunes. Go back to Overdrive and click Transfer. Note that iTunes must be open for this to work. It will install your book on your iPod, you can pause, bookmark and it'll even use the original artwork. Been doing it this way for years on an old iPod and now iPhone 4S. Do it once and you'll love it.

Can I download and install Creative Suite 6 Design Standard from the Adobe site?

I purchased cs6 standard when I bought my laptop so I have the hard copy of the program. However, my laptop does not have a disc drive so I was looking to download the file online then enter my product code and serial number. Am I missing something or is there no way to download and install online? Sorry if this is a redundant post, I couldnt find one that addressed my problem.
In short, can I download and install CS6 Standard from the Adobe site (not the trial version)? If yes, can someone post a link to direct me to it?

Simply download the trial and activate it with the serial. Or you could copy the files to an USB stick on another computer. There is no super-secret extra download.

I have a new Nikon D750 sitting on my desk and can't edit the photos with any adobe product? We are in full wedding season and am a little frustrated. Photo mechanics opens them right up to download them. I am using the Nikon software to convert them

I have a new Nikon D750 sitting on my desk and can't edit the photos with any adobe product? We are in full wedding season and am a little frustrated. Photo mechanics opens them right up to download them. I am using the Nikon software to convert them into tiffs. when is the camera raw update coming out. I am not the only photographer with this issue check out all the chatter about it.

This happens every single time a new camera comes out from one of the two big camera makers. Nikon and Canon do not send preproduction units to Adobe, so Adobe has to go out and buy a D750 or whatever from the store to test and profile it before they can update Lightroom. They can't get one earlier than you and I can. The profiling is quite an extensive operation. Other camera makers do send preproduction units, use dng, or do the profiling in-house and there you often get support right from release. If camera makers would finally embrace an open raw format such as dng, this whole problem would be gone but both Canon and Nikon seem to think they live in an upside-down world where their clients only use their software.
Usually the dead period only lasts a few weeks but it is frustrating nevertheless. My only advice is to not buy a new camera at the day of release and expect to have third parties to support it. You definitely should not be buying these cameras right away if your business depends on it. Aperture, Capture One, etc. have the exact same problem. No third party (read non-Nikon in this case) will support the camera from the release date. Some are quicker than other adding support. Adobe is somewhere in the middle of the pack in this respect. Nobody outside of Adobe knows when an update comes out. Could be tomorrow, could be a few more weeks or a month. They might jump straight to Lightroom 6 and never add direct support to LR 5. Sometimes they will first bring out a beta version of dng converter that will convert the new camera's nef files to dng, which will work fine in the current Lightroom before updating Lightroom itself.
