Complicated- No original Adobe Photoshop Software Info for transferring to new computer...

Ok, so in 2009 my father bought me a new computer (Acer, PC) and had his personal tech guy add Adobe Photoshop. Unfortunately, he never informed me of the Photoshop software, nor did I receive the CD installation or any other form of documentation and so I only recently discovered the Photoshop software while trying to transfer files to my newer laptop (Dell, PC). Now I'm just trying to figure out what my options are for getting the software information and having it transferred to my new laptop without any of the installation software. The old laptop (Acer, PC) barely works but I can access Photoshop, so if there is info on it I can provide to help with helping me with this issue, please request. I apologize if this question is in one of the other help sections but I didn't see it. Thank you!

Thank you so much for your reply and help...wish I'd read it before using the Chat help. Just finished communications with someone through the Chat Help and had to disconnect to find the S/N. Now that I have it I can't seem to re start the open case Chat thing to finish getting the help I need. Regarding the info you gave me after stating I need the S/N I am completely lost and confused on. I have no idea how to figure out if its running in trial mode or if I'm the one it's licensed to. Though I'm pretty sure it's licensed to me. When I've tried registering PS on the older laptop it tells me its registered but when I look for it online it's not there. I shut down PS and reopen it and it asks me to go through the registration process again. Which I've done several times with no other results. I'm sorry, I'm new to all this and am at a loss as to how I'm supposed to proceed...

  • Installing Photoshop 6.0 for Mac on new computer

    My 2007 MacBookPro crashed, bought a new one and I'm trying to install my old Adobe Photoshop 6.0. When I install the CD I get a message "You can't open the application Install Adobe Photoshop 6.0 because the Classic environment is no longer supported". I called Adobe but they say they no longer provide that version and basically can't help. Does anyone know how to get around this problem?
    Thanks/Tom

    Unfortunately, you'll need to buy a new or more-current version of Adobe's Creative Suite or PhotoShop Elements for Macs.  PhotoShop 6 was designed to run on the PowerPC processor-based Macs that could boot from either OS X or OS 9, or could only boot OS X, but could run OS 9 applications in the Classic environment.  I don't understand how you were able to install this software on your 2007 version MacBook Pro, since it (like your new laptop) had an Intel processor.  The capability of a 2007-vintage Mac to support OS 9.2.2 in a Classic environment was not supported.

  • How do I transfer my adobe photoshop starter edition3.2 to my new computer?

    How do I transfer my current adobe photoshop starter edition 3.2 to a new computer?

    I wouldn't recommend transferring Starter Edition over to your new computer. It's age, and the fact that it is no longer supported, makes it too risky to trust your valuable photos at this time.
    If you are interested in using similar software on your new computer, you could look into Google Picasa, or simply use the built-in solution (both Mac and windows include apps that help you handle your photo collections).
    The important part is that you do need to locate the files that Starter Edition had been tracking; they are usually in your My Pictures/Starter Edition folder, but the program doesn't require them to be there, and you should do a thorough check across your drive for all photos. If they are jpeg files, you might be able to do a search for '*.jpg' files to get a list that can be easily copied to a single folder, then copied to a thumb drive or somesuch for moving to your new system.

  • Adobe CC year membership not transferred to new computer - How do I get it back?

    Earlier this year, I company I worked for bought me a year's subscription to Adobe CC. When got a new computer I wanted to transfer the membership, so I signed out of the desktop app on my old computer and installed it (and signed in) on my new machine. Whilst my premium typekit membership has transferred, I was just offered to start a 30 Day Trial of the programmes rather than showing them as purchased.
    I looked on my adobe account and there's no evidence of a paid membership there it just says 'free trial version'. Any suggestions on how to get it back? Help much appreciated

    I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 for Windows 7. I need to re-install it because my computer crashed. I saved the outer box, but I do not see a serial number and it is asking for it when I am trying to install the CD software. I went online, but the only serial number I see is when I registered the Photoshop Elements 2.0.

    The serial number will be on the disc case, not the outer box.  Find your serial number quickly

    Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 for Mac does not show up in Applications. Tutorial for editing from iPhoto shows selecting the Adobe software in Applications. Am I missing a step in registering product?

    I answered my own question: There's a difference between "download' and "install." Hunt for "install" (1.5 hrs in my case) and line up your passwords, Adobe ID, etc, then install. Took 15 min. The right choice shows up in Applications. Now it's on to figuring out why photo selected for edit in iPhoto does not show up on screen in Elements.

  • I have been using Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 for two years. I got a new printer and installed it although I did not remove my old printer from my computer. I used this program and my new printer for quite a few months, but today I deleted my old printer

    I have been using Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 for along time now. When I first used the program I had a different printer than I have now. Although I changed printers I never removed the software from my old one. Now this was never a problem until today. When I choose a printer I still had option to use the old one but always chose my new HP Envy 5530 and Adobe never had a problem printing from that new printer. However today I decided to remove my old printer from my computer and now my Adobe cannot find my new printer.  How can I make it find the HP printer?

  • Adobe PhotoShop Elements 6 for Mac

    I've downloaded, without difficulty, the Adobe PhotoShop Elements 6 for Mac 30 day trial onto my Pismo running OS 10.4.8 with 1GB of RAM. As soon as I try to open a photo the application crashes. I know the G3 processor (500 MHz) will be slow but it shouldn't be impossible for it to cope. Adobe's site says that G4 or higher is required. Perhaps I should look at earlier versions of the application. Any advice/suggestions would be appreciated

    Hi, Tim. As you've noted, your Pismo doesn't meet the minimum System Requirements for PSE6:
    *PowerPC® G4 or G5 or multicore Intel® processor (your Pismo has a G3)*
    - Mac OS X v10.4.8 through 10.5.2
    - 512MB of RAM (1GB recommended)
    *64MB of video RAM (your Pismo has 8MB)*
    - 1GB of available hard-disk space (additional free space required during installation)
    - 1,024x768 monitor resolution with 16-bit video card
    - DVD-ROM drive
    - QuickTime 7 software required for multimedia features
    - Internet connection required for Internet-based services
    (boldface added)
    Yes, if I were you I'd try to buy an earlier version of PSE.

  • I just purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 for a Mac and trying to install. I am at the point to enter the serial number but it won't take letters. What do I do and where do I go for help?

    I just purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 for a Mac and trying to install. I am at the point to enter the serial number but it won't take letters. What do I do and where do I go for help?

    If the code you are trying to enter has letters then you are not looking at a serial number.  A serial number only contains numbers - 6 sets of 4 numbers.

    You might be dealing with a redemption code.  This is especially so if you purchased it from a store or the like.

    i just bought a adobe photoshop elements 12 for windows in the store , why the serial number on the box is invalid ?

    Hi,
    Does your serial number have 24 digits starting with 1057?
    Note: Please don't quote your number as this is a public forum
    If your number is not like that it may be a redemption code. See if the following helps.

    If you need help in finding a serial number inside the box, please see here

    If you still need help, then you will have to contact Adobe. Look at the end of the page I first gave and you should see "Still need help" - click on that.
    Good luck
