Cannot install FCS 1 on new iMac

I just purchased a new quad core 27" iMac, but when I go to install FCS 1 (which is what i have for this serial number) it says that i "do not have the right hardware" to run it.
Im guessing because this is a new computer and FCS is old.
1. So question one, is there a way to still get this to install?
2. If not, I have a version of FCS 2 only on a separate serial number and it is installed on my MBP. If I install the same serial number copy on two computers on the same network will it allow both to run?
Thanks

Final Cut Studio 1 was released at NAB2005 and was NOT a universal binary app.
It is only compatible with PPC, not an Intel Macs, such as your new iMac.
The first UB FCS was released about year later is a $49.95 cross grade
Luckily, you can upgrade to FCS3 for about $250.00 if you shop.

Problem installing on my new iMac

I have an ugrade version of Photoshop Elements 10/Premier Elements 10. I have recently changed from a Windows based machine to a new iMac. I obviously do not have my previous software installed on my new iMac. I suspect that there may be a problem to install my software for that reason, but in addition, I get the following error messages:

Hi dr_dmd,
Please try renaming the folder : /Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE to OOBE_old
After renaming unstall the PRE and PSE completly from /Applications/utilities/Adobe Installers and then try to install.
If still you face the same problem then please let us provide the list of Adobe software which are installed on your computer.

Cannot install itunes on new laptop

Cannot install itunes on new laptop, even when security software is disabled. Downloads fine, goes through install and then says it can't install on my system. I have admin priviledges and already have Quicktime running. Help! I have itunes already running beautifully on 3 other computers and an ipod touch with home sharing - but my new laptop just won't intall itunes. Can anyone help?

Many thanks. Quite often with the 0x800736B3 on the iTunes install, there seems to be an 0x8007000b in play for Windows Update.
Let's try the following document first:
[Windows Update error 8007000b|http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Windows-Update-error- 8007000b]
Next head to Windows Update and try stocking back on Windows Updates again. If you're a long way behind (sometimes this has been going on for months for people), you may need to do it in several batches. Basically, keep going back to Windows Update until it stops offering you new updates.
After you're stocked back up on Windows Updates, try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
(If you can't get Windows Updates to install, post back to let us know the error codes you've been getting on the most recent attempts at updates. Sometimes things are in such a snarl that we have to try a few different measures with them.)

If you purchased it from the Mac App Store, sign in with the Apple ID used to buy it, click on the Purchases tab, and download it from there.
If you purchased it from the iTunes App Store, you can't without getting the Mac OS X version.

Iphoto never came installed in my new iMac bought in Dec. (newest version) WHY???

iphoto never came installed in my new iMac bought in Dec. (newest version) WHY??? How do I get it?

It did come pre-installed, have you looked in the Applicaitons folder and have you checked Trash to see if you (or some other user on your computer) threw it in there? If it's still not there, then restart in the Recovery Partition on your iMac (hold down the Option key when you hear the startup tone) and choose re-install OS X.

I purchased mountain lion, but after numerous attempts until my fingers all gone numb, i simply cannot install it on my imac. i get this error message: "an error occurred while installing OS X, you cannot install OS X on this disk......". please help.

imac specs:

Tell us more about the disk and partition onto which you are trying to install Mountain Lion:
Open Disk Utility (in Applications > Utilities). The left column should show your disk with its partition(s) indented below it:
How is the disk (top level container) formatted according to Disk Utility:
* What Partiton Map Scheme? (Should be "GUID Partition Table".)
* How many partitions? (Should be 1 unless you have a Boot Camp partition.)
How is the partition (lower level container) formatted according to Disk Utility? (Should be "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)".)

Good question, shame it's gone.
It's possible to re-install it if you've got a Snow Leopard back-up, although I haven't tried it myself:

Installing Photoshop on New IMac

Hi Every one
I am totaly new to all this and I need help
I have a mac pro Laptop and I don’t have an internet at home. I am purchasing a new 27 inch IMac and want to install Photoshop CS6 on the IMac. And since I don’t have internet at home, is there a possibility that I can download Photoshop on my Mac Pro first and then copy it on a flash Drive or Burn it on a CD then install it on My New I Mac? Would that work?
Thank you all.

Thank you Sumit for your respond
But I don't have internet at home..
I don't get it.. one person says follow this link and you say downlaod from this link.
I do apologize to you and with all do respect to you knowledge.. I do not have internet..
since I don’t have internet at home, is there a possibility that I can download Photoshop on my Mac Pro first and then copy it on a flash Drive or Burn it on a CD then install it on My New I Mac? Would that work?
Activatioin is an issue. YES I know.. I get that. What do I do to activate it? I was provided by the link.. Thank you for that. But I am talking about 27 inch IMAC. How am i going to get on line from home where there is no Internet to avtivate it?

But i will be spending clsoe to $3000 to purcahse all this and then I cannot install it properly, Just becasu I don't have internet at home?

Re-installing OSX on new iMac

we recently purchased a iMac, G5 w/ intel chip ....
we then fired a designer who has obviously lost the original disks that came with the machine. our delema is that we cannot install software, etc because we have no access to the password that was set up with him.
soooo ... we went to the apple store and purchased the 10.6 OSX Cd that they said would work on this machine.
when we insert the cd and try to install the OSX is says OSX 10.6 cannot be installed on this machine.
please help ????

To be sure you are clear on the situation. You have an Intel Mac. The only installation discs that will work are those that came with the computer. What you need to do is call AppleCare and arrange to have a new set of discs sent to you or arrange with your local dealer to provide you with a set of software restore discs intended for your Intel Mac model.
There are two Intel iMac models. The original Intel models that have the Core Duo processor and the newest models that have the Core 2 Duo processor. The OS X Installer Discs are not the same for each model, so you need to be sure you get the discs that are specifically for your model. These discs will have gray labels and they are model specific.

Trouble installing CS4 on new iMacs

Since I cannot insert disks into the new iMacs(there is no drive), I was told to copy the content onto my desktop, and install it that way. When I open istaller, the content from disk 1 is installed successfully, but then it asks me to insert disk 2. Since I already the content of disk 2, I just press "ok," but nothing happens; it just keeps repeating the same prompt for me to insert disk 2. I would image this is because the installer reads when another disk is inserted, but since there is no disk drive, it doesn't think I've done anything. As a result, only the content from disk 1 is installed. How can I install the whole thing?

Follow the steps mentioned the below link, it will give you a step by step workflow to perform Desktop installation :-

As a workaround you could download the CS4 software from and then use this to install.

Cannot Install FCE4 on i3 iMac

My employer purchased a bunch of new iMacs (Intel Core i3, 3.2 GHz) in both the 21.5 inch and 27 inch models along with several copies of Final Cut Express 4. When I attempt to install the software on any of these computers, Final Cut Express is grayed out with "Skip" listed under action. It will install LiveType just fine but not FCE.
I installed the same program on an iMac we purchased back in February (3.06 Core 2 Duo) without any issues.
All of the software is up to date and I even tried repairing permissions. Any advice on what to do to install FCE would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks for the reply!
None of the machines have had the software installed before. After the initial install attempt on one of the machines, I ran FCS Remover to remove all traces before trying it again.

Need to do a clean install on my new iMac

I have a new iMac and after migrating everything from my old one, I am getting some strange problems. Things like not being able to shut down without doing a forced shut down and some other small things here and there that Apple have not been able to figure out. I thought I should do a clean install instaed of a full migration and I wonder if anyone has any tips on doing this in the most efficient way, while migrating all my data and info and such, but making sure that I don't just bring back the same problems. I have everything on a Time Machine back up.

CDs are no longer required, in fact no OS X version has been available on optical media for three versions now.
To erase the disk or to reinstall OS X use OS X Recovery: Hold ⌘ and r (two fingers) while you start your Mac. Your iMac has a Recovery partition already on the disk, and if you need to replace that disk with an empty one, your iMac has firmware that conveys the ability to download OS X directly from Apple's servers, and create a new Recovery partition on the new disk.
For a more thorough description addressing all options start with the following, courtesy of the late Apple Support Communities contributor Pondini: 19. I got a new Mac, or a new or erased internal HD -- now what?
Beware of any incompatible software that Migration Assistant may transfer from Macs running earlier OS X versions.
Anything you purchased from the Mac App Store or the iTunes Store can be downloaded and installed again on as many Macs as you own, as often as required, assuming the purchased items remain available from their respective stores.

I can't get Creative Cloud Desktop installed on my new iMac

I bought a new iMac. It's running Mac OS X 10.9.2.
1. I backed up everything on the old mac.
2. I uninstalled all Adobe Creative Cloud apps on the old mac.
3. I used Apple Migration Assistant to transfer all data from the old mac to the new mac.
4. I downloaded and installed Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop on the new mac.
5. I clicked on the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop icon at the top of the screen. (upper right)
6. A window popped open, save "Creative Cloud" written on a black ground, then were nothing in the window. The window is blank. I wasn't asked to accept the terms of use. There is no "home", "apps", "files", "fonts" "behance" options. There's nothing.
Everything other time I've installed Creative Cloud Desktop, the first question is to accept the terms of use. In this case, there was nothing - just an empty window. Also, the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop icon at the top of the screen is light grey. It turns black after the user accepts the terms of use. The icon at the top of my screen is always light grey.
What can I do to fix this?

Ok, got it. What did I do?
# Uninstall Adobe Cloud Application
# Delete the folders
- Mac OS: /User/<username>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE
- Mac OS: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/AAMUpdater
- Mac OS: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/AAMUpdaterInventory
- Mac OS: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE
# started Photoshop, an error comes up and I reinstalled the Adobe Application Manager
# installed the Adobe Cloud Application
# restarted the mac
Adobe CC up and running
