Can't open CS6 programs on new Macbook. Help!

I recently bought a new Macbook Pro and want to transfer my CS6 programs from my old computer. I deactivated the software and then moved the files onto my new Mac via my external hard drive. Now when I try and open a program (ex. Photoshop), I am receiving this error message:
Configuration Error
Please uninstall and reinstall the product.
If this problem still occurs, please contact Adobe technical support for help, and mention the error code shown at the bottom of this screen.
Error: 16
http://www.adobe.com/support/
How do I reactivate my software in order to open them? Was I wrong to copy the files via external hard drive?
Please help!
Thanks.

if you copied the installation (not installed) files, you proceeded correctly: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/configuration-error-cs5.html
if you did not use the installation files,
delete what you've added
run the cleaner, http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
restart your computer
install using the correct files, http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/cs6-product-downloads.html

you should restore your system, or install mac os on an extenral hard drive, create a "test" user and see if you get the same result.

Can't open Iphoto on my new macbook pro

It asks me to upgrade. thought it came with the softwar... what is up?

have you accepted the upgrade (or update)?
You may have an issue since the software is licensed by the seller's Apple ID
And BTW it helps people answer your questions if you provide information like iPhoto version you have, OS version you have, what happens when you try to do something and exact error messages
So it is not really a new system but a used one that has been erased - that is critical information
and since no one here can read minds answers to the oter question about your system, versions, etc would imporve chances o getting a valid answer

Made a movie in iMovie on old mac. Can I open and edit on new MacBook?

I made a movie and exported in iMovie on an old MacBook. I need to access the video and edit. It won't import. In Finder it only shows Audio_TS and Video_TS files.

Audio_TS and Video_TS files are what you have on an ordinary DVD. You must have burned the video to DVD. Do you still have the iMovie project? If not you would have to rip the DVD using Handbrake or something similar.
See: http://lifehacker.com/5809765/how-to-rip-a-dvd-to-your-computer for some more information.
I have never done this myself so can't help further.

Can't open cs6 programs they crash since I was instructed to download java for osx10.10.2

My photoshop cs6 crashes.

You shouldn't need java for photoshop cs6 to work on mac os x 10.10.2
(some of the other cs6 creative suite applications like illustrator do though i believe)
This is the java you would need

Can you post the crash report for photoshop cs6?

I have transferres Adobe programs from my old Mac Book to my new Mac Book Pro, but I can´t open the programs!?

Adobe programs don't do well with migration. You should uninstall them, run the cleaner tool (CS Cleaner Tool for installation problems | CCM, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3), and reinstall from the original installers, but you also need to be aware that many older programs are not supported on newer versions of OSX so this may not go smoothly.

I am a subscriber to cs6 and LR5. I was never given a serial number and i can't open the programs without one. how can i find my serial number? it's not on my receipt?

Cloud programs do not use a serial number, they use your paid Cloud subscription log in

Melting,
Can you share any information regarding what you have tried? To create a new document select the menu item "File > New..."
What documents have you tried to open and what happened when you tried?

I'm using CS6 with my new macbook pro why is it all pixalized

just downloaded the trial for the 30 day of photoshop CS6 on my new MACBOOK PRO with retina display and its very very pixalzed. WHY?!

It shouldn't be at all. I'm running Photoshop CS6 on a 2011 MBP and it's working fine. The only thing that I can figure out is that you may not be running at the recommended resolution? What res are you working in? Photoshop is not yet optimized for the full screen display max on the MBP-R.
Call back...

I signed up for CC today. Already had many Adobe cs3 and cs6 programs on my laptop. Mac Powerbook OS 10.8.4.
Installed CC desktop, photoshop, dreamweaver.
Now I can't open any adobe software. I keep getting error 16 to uninstall and reinstall the program.
I tried removing cc desktop, downloader, cc dreamweaver and photoshop and reinstalling my cs6 programs.
Nothing works. I can't get any work done because I can't open any programs.
I did try the fix below. It does not work.

I am using CS4. Can I open CS6 files? I am receiving "plug-ins not available on your system" messages and I'd like to open anyway but clicking on OK doesn't work.

I am using CS4. Can I open CS6 files? I am receiving "plug-ins not available on your system" messages and I'd like to open anyway but clicking on OK doesn't work.

InDesign CS4 can open .indd, .indt and .inx files from earlier versions, but not from later. It should, however, be able to open .idml files saved or exported from newer versions, with the understanding that unsupported features will be lost, text will probably reflow due to differences in texts engines between versions, and that the greater the gap between versions the more likely there are to be noticeable differences from the original. You will need to be sure CS4 is at version 7.0.6 to read the .idml.

Did you try to reset the device by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo come back again?
If this does not work, set it up again "as new device", shown in this article: How to set up your iPhone or iPod touch as a new device

Can you put windows on a new macbook pro

can you put windows on a new macbook pro ? yes or no, which notebook can i put windows on if not the macbook pro?

WIndows 7 is the only Windows OS supported by the new Macs.
You usually use Boot Camp Assistant to partition the drive and install the Windows product on the Mac.
This creates a system where you boot into Mac OSX OR Windows.
see more at http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/
There are programs such as Parallels or VMWare Fusion that can create a Virtual Machine within Mac OSX - giving you access to both Operating Systems at once. You may get slight performance issues as you would be essentially running two Operating Systems at once.
