Creative Suite Standard Student - Switch from Win to Mac OS

Hello,
a few weeks ago I bought the Creative Suite Design Standard Students edition for Windows. By now I have not verifyed that I am a student, so I do not have an activation-key.
I know how to get the key. I just had to wait for my new documents from the university and yesterday my dad offered me his MacBook Pro 15" for a good price.
I would like to know if it would be possible to switch the OS and use the Creative Suite without buying a new one for mac os.
So far I have not contacted the Adobe Support.
I would be very happy if someone could help me with my Problem.
Greetings
Konstantin

Switched from Win to Mac, need CS4

New here, I appreciate any help!! I have just switched from a windows machine to Mac. On the windows machine I had an education version of CS4 Design Premium. Now I need it to work with Mac OSX Lion 10.7.3. I downloaded the mac version of the software, but the installer would not take my old windows serial number. What can I do??
I sincerely appreciate any help you are able to give. I am working on a project, and I don't want to have to rebuy CS4 again!! Thanks!

You upgrade to CS5.5 and make the platform switch. If you're still eligible for education pricing, you just buy anew. Until then you can always run your Windows version via Bootcamp or Parallels.

Need to switch from Win to Mac

I have been trying for over two weeks to get adobe to switch over my license from CS3 for Windows to CS3 Mac. I waited on the phone for over an hour then later for over two hours until my battery died for customer service area to answer. And I have sent numerous web requests.
Customer Service tells me to contact Sales; Sales tells me to contact Customer Support.
At one point, I really thought someone had read my request because they instructed me to fill out a Letter of Destruction - I did, but the request died in place shortly thereafter.
I then submitted a new request (for someone to check on the original request ticket) because no on would respond to the original one (I assumed that it was just lost in limbo - it happens).
The customer service rep then sent me a letter saying to contact Sales and that he had closed out the request since it was resolved. I guess it was about to reach their service level threshold and he needed to maintain "good numbers."
I have searched the web and I know that Adobe's customer service seems to be ranked at the very bottom, but any help or suggestions would be appreciated. I could use a mailing address or email for Shantanu Narayen (CEO/President) or John Warnock (co-chairman) if anyone has it. It really is at a point that it would be easier to obtain an illegal license than to try to maintain a legal copy, which is really saying something. Please email me at [email protected]

The suggestion from skullmaker that referenced the open letter from Adobe to their customers and the adbecare email address was very helpful.
I emailed them and briefly explained my issue (not always easy when you are frustrated and you want to send them a blow-by-blow time line description of everything that happened).
Adobe called me back within 24 hours and acknowledged that their current customer support process is not meeting their customer service goals and that they are actively working to correct the deficiencies.
The individual that I spoke with was very polite (Tracy M) and understanding, and stated that she would resolve my problem personally. She also provided her direct contact information should I have any further problems.
She didn't redirect me to yet another unanswered phone number or ask me to submit another LOD or to complete another web ticket - she assumed ownership for my problem and said that she would handle everything to get my issue resolved.
I believe that Adobe knows that they have a problem and that they are sincere in wanting to correct their customer support process issues. I believe that my issue is resolved (or will be shortly). My suggestion to anyone experiencing out of the ordinary problems with Adobe's current customer support process is to contact Adobe through the email address mentioned in the open letter.
My thanks to Skullmaker and this forum for helping me get past this problem - I really appreciate it.

Can I switch from Win to Mac and back to Win

I just bought 2 new Shuffle for my 2 children. I hooked it up to our Dell Windows PC. I have downloaded a few songs from a CD that are also on my Mac's at work. When we go on vacation, I will be taking my Mac Book Pro. Can I get the Shuffles to work with my MBP while on vacation and then restore to windows when we get back? If you can help, I'll buy you a car. Mark

Yes, the ipods will work with either a windows based or mac based computer.
However, and ipod shuffle will loose the music if linked to another library.
One way around this is to uncheck open itunes when this ipod is connected as posted by 0Ari0. But, this only works if you just want to charge the ipod.
If you are wanting to load more music as you are on vacation, you can always transfer your library to your MacBook.
This article will help if you wish to transfer the library from the Dell to the MacBook:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300173
This works with an ipod or any external drive.
If there are other questions or if this does not help, you can contact Apple at 800-275-2273

CS4 Creative Suite Standard Install Discs/Download?

So unfortunately my macbook's harddrive just crashed, and with it many photos and applications, including my whole adobe CS4 creative suite standard (student edition). My problem is that I no longer have the original install discs because my beloved roommate threw the box out. Also a problem, I cannot even think about upgrading to CS5 (don't really want to) because I am still on OS X10.4 (Tiger). I have tracked down my serial number through adobe's support (muchos gracias), but have no way of getting ahold of a complete CS4 creative suite standard install discs/download. I have tracked down a friend's CS4 Photoshop install discs (but that doesn't work with my serial #) as well as another friend's CS4 creative suite premium install discs (also doesn't work with my serial #)... Is there anything I can do to get a download or install discs of the programs from adobe? I only use/need photoshop and bridge, but really need them seeing as I am a ski photographer who is trying to finish up my last edits for winter submissions...

If you're in the USA and you don't mind covering the costs, contact me via my website: www.theindesignguy.com/contact.shtml. Fill out the contact form...DO NOT CALL ME!
Make sure you fill in everything accurately or I won't be able to answer you.

If you purchased the software from Adobe directly, Contact Customer Care - they can tell you if there is a chance to get a replacement disk. But most likely they will tell you to download the software.

Downloaded from Adobe site (Download CS6 products). Downloaded both File 1 and 2 Design and Web, English version. Both files are on my desktop in the same folder.

I bought a creative suite 2 student addition on ebay with coupon code but this code is invalid.How can I register this software and get a serial nr?

CS2 is a very old version and Adobe has stopped shipping it since ages.
Buy the new Adobe CS6 or contact the reseller from where you bought this software.
Note : Adobe now offers month-to-month and one-year subscriptions for most individual CS6 applications. In addition, Adobe now offers membership in Adobe Creative Cloud, which gives users ongoing access to most Creative Suite applications. This means you can continue to use your application on a month-by-month basis for a fraction of the full purchase price. Learn more about CS subscription editions.

Creative Suite Standard 5.5 uninstall and reinstall

Hi, I had uninstalled Creative Suite Standard 5.5 because "some elements" where missed when I tried to launch indesign and asked me to uninstall and reinstall, so did I. Now, I strugle to install again the software! I had downloaded it from adobe help and apple doesn't allow mw to open it. I have already changed my security preferences to allow apps from "anywhere" but doesn't open… any suggestion?

if that's a mac warning about an unrecognized publisher, OS X Mountain Lion: The app is from an unidentified developer

I just bought a new PC and I have re-installed my Adobe Creative Suite Standard on it. Software open fine. PROBLEM: The toolbars (menu stuff) appear extra-small, too small for me to read... I sent on the PC setting to try to change the display resolution.

I just bought a new PC and I have re-installed my Adobe Creative Suite Standard on it.
Software open fine. PROBLEM: The toolbars (menu stuff) appear extra-small, too small for me to read...
I went into the PC settings and tried to change the display resolution. This changes the size of all the icons (not only Adobe) but it does not solve the problem when I open an Adobe application (Photoshop or Illustrator)... The PC is run under Windows 8.1 and my display resolution is 3200x1800 (but again, when I change the settings for a smaller resolution, only the size of the icons is affected. Once I open the software, the problem is still there, extra-small toolbars...). Help!!!

Trouble trying to install Creative Suite Standard Design.

Trouble trying to install Creative Suite Standard Design 6. It stalls at around 20% when installing "Adobe Help" component. Install time increases but does not go past 20%. Tried several times with same result. I am running Windows 8.1. regards Thomas

while installing, when installation starts to stall, open your running processes and terminate the adobe help process. installation should then continue.

Help, I have bought Creative Suite 6 student version, I have the product code but not the numbers I need to activate it, can you help?

This is not something we can help you with in a public forum.
You'll either have to call Adobe Customer Service in your region, or use web chat. Here's link to web chat. Enter a product name and problem area. Ignore all the links except the one that says something like, "Still have a problem?" Click that, and you'll get a link to web chat:
