Cs3 design premium...

I don't know where to put this, but:
is $299 a steal for adobe cs3 design premium?

As a full retail package it's either fake or stolen. Dealers don't even buy upgrades at that price.

Trying to load CS3 Design Premium on a new machine; it's blocked by system check.

I'm trying to load CS3 Design Premium on a new laptop. The system check is preventing InDesign from loading. It inaccurately indicates I don't have great enough resolution. Does anyone have a workaround?
I have a PC running Windows 7 OS.
I've done the following:
Adjusted the resolution to maximum resolution and also to the value Adobe recommends. Both without success.
Used Adobe cleaner, restarted, and tried to reload. No luck. InDesign and Illustrator are still prevented from loading due to resolution ((1024 X 768).
Ideas, tips, and workarounds appreciated!

Jane, please turn off the autoquote in you email when replying.
I've installed it on two CS3 win 7 machines with wide-screens without incident. Are you running the installer from disk or a download? The CS3 installers was pretty finicky, as I recall, and you may need to perform a "clean boot" to get it to work.

I installed CS3 Design premium upgrade yesterday onto my new mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.1. You gave me a new serial number. I have been able to open Photoshop, Bridge, Dreamweaver and Flash. The Illustrator, Indesign and Acrobat applications are not in my applications folder although there are folders in there with those names containing associated items. How can this have happened and what can I do?

Reinstalling Acrobat 8 Pro from CS3 Design Premium, asking for Photoshop Elements 6 CD??

Hi.
I use a Macbook Pro with Leopard OS X version 10.5.8, 2.6 Ghz Intel Core Duo, $ GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM.
I use Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium which came with Acrobat 8 Professional. Now, for a while I've been having issues updating Acrobat because it said it had been modified blah blah and something about plugins being disabled, so to rectify reinstall and run updates. I've seen alot of people on forums with this same issue.
For a long time I ignored this as the program was still working, but today it urked me enough to unistall (which I did by dragging it from the applications to trash) and try to reinstall.
So I tried. Put the CD in, selected only Acrobat 8 Pro for reinstallation, all went well until it asked me to put in the Photoshop Element 6 CD.... which I never had. Although the program does come on the CD. So i'm left confused, without acrobat pro and wishing i had never uninstalled!
I hope this makes some sort of sense. Any help would be much appreciated!

I resorted to using the live chat feature that Adobe have on the website. We found that once everything was uninstalled and then just reinstalled Acrobat alone, I wasn't asked to insert the Photoshop Elements 6 CD to continue and everything was fine. No problems. But, when I tried to then reinstall the rest of the suite, it asked for the CD.
So, the way to avoid it asking for the CD was to uninstall CS3 Design Premium completely and then reinstall all the programs. And everything seems to be working fine.
Maybe this was an obvious solution, but I didn't want to risk uninstalling all the programs only to be asked for a non-existent CD when reinstalling.
Anyway, hopefully someone else will find this helpful.

Adobe Creative CS3 Design Premium - Problem with Photoshop CS3

Hi,
I have been trying to install Adobe Creative CS3 Design Premium for 2 days. The problem is when I try to install the software the Photoshop CS3 is gray out. I can install the all except the Photoshop. I have no idea what is wrong but has failed to install photoshop cs3. Do I need to unistall the Photoshop CS2 in order to make it work. Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

I have been looking at my error logs to try to see what my problem is and it only says the word error once at the bottom and I can't really tell what the error is for. It says successful on one line and then error on the next line. Is tehre anyone here that knows these logs well and can tell me what my problem is by reading my error logs?

Trying to reinstall Adobe Photoshop CS3 Design Premium - I receive an error saying I need to insert Photoshop CS4 to continue install. How to do this???

I recently got a new computer and transferred programs over to it (it's a Mac Pro). But now my Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional application no longer works so I need to reinstall. (Acrobat 8 originally was bundled with CS3 Design Premium.) I no longer have the disks for these programs, so I downloaded the CS3 Design Premium from Adobe's website. Upon opening up the .dmg file and starting the install process, I'm prompted with an "Install Error" telling me: "Please insert Adobe Photoshop CS4 to continue installation." I do not have a disk for PS CS4. How do I continue the install??
Thank you,
-Kristine

Transferring files between machines doesn't work for Adobe applications. You should uninstall anything you transferred over and use the cleaner tool for it. Then download and install the CS3 suite as a whole.

Question about purchasing Adobe CS3 Design Premium as a university student...?

Do you think Adobe CS3 Design Premium $450.00 is a good deal if I can't get a pirated version from anyone else?
Should I feel guilty for spending that money (it's for university, a graphic design program) or should I be content that I'm being a good citizen?
According to Apple's site, it's about $2500 retail price, $750 with the educational price, and $450 if you buy it with a Mac and the educational price...
I was just feeling a little dumb when other kids were saying that they have pirated software and think it's silly to buy it. But then again, I don't really have anyone to get it off of anyway..
And I know that that industry is always changing, always comming up with new and advanced software. So if I buy CS3, and they come up with a CS4, and CS5, which I no doubt they will, do I have to pay the same amount for those as for the CS3? Is there anyway I can update/upgrade it for cheaper? I saw that they have an upgrade price on the products page, I was just wondering what the process/steps to do so are? Thanks!

If you have a legitimate, purchased copy it has always been the case
in the past that you can purchase upgrades to the next version for a
reduced price.
The question of pirated software is not just a legal one but a moral
one. Here is one perspective to consider (since you're obviously not 100% comfortable with the "it suits me better to pay nothing so I'll steal it" philosophy that some of your peers espouse). Perhaps you are thinking of a career in graphic design? Well, how would you feel if something you'd worked on for a year was taken by big companies without paying you a cent, used to sell expensive products, for book covers, for fancy web sites and TV adverts?
If this makes you uncomfortable, consider that the only thing that
stops this from happening is the copyright laws. If you want to be
protected by them, it seems possible you should start by respecting
them.

Cannot install dreamweaver cs3 design premium on iMac

I purchased a new iMac and used the migration assistant to migrate everything from another iMac and now I cannot open dreamweaver anymore. I just get a blank error box.
Both iMacs are intel based and are running 10.2.7 (latest OS) and I never had any issues with dreamweaver on the other computer.
Since I can't afford the $1000 to upgrade my CS3 Design Premium, I need to get this working. I can open all other CS3 apps with no problems, Photoshop, InDesign, Flash.. but Dreamweaver has the error box popup.
I tried calling but Adobe doesn't provide support for their products after a new product version is released, according to Rajish the customer service rep.
I tried installing from the disk too, but that didn't work either, it gives me an error that says "Required resources are missing" and then I have to click the Quit button.
So I'm stuck, I can't use Dreamweaver unless I can somehow re-install it, or figure out what didn't migrate properly. Any ideas?
*stressed out... and chocolate is not helping....

Cyberious are you using 10.7.2 or 10.2.7? Most likely it is an issue with using the Migration Assistant. For complicated programs like Adobe products it is best to do a fresh install instead of migrating the product over. Users who use the Migration Assistant often face issues such as yours.
You have a couple different options:
The first and easiest would be to format and reinstall the OS on your new Mac. Then run the Migration Assistant again this time only bringing over your documents and settings. You will then want to reinstall the software from your installation media.
Second you can try running the uninstaller located in Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers. After this is done you will want to run the CS5 Cleaner tool. For details regarding how to use and obtain the cleaner tool I would recommend reviewing CS5 Cleaner Tool for installation problems | CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html. You can then again install from the installation media.
I honestly would recommend going with option 1. In the over decade and half I have been doing support some of the worst issues have come from the use of Migration Assistants/EZ Setup solutions. I have seen people literarily spend hours trying to resolve their difficulties.

Adobe Creative Suite CS3 Design Premium Student Upgrade?

I bought a student edition of CS3 Design Premium.
After purchasing it I found that I only use the Photoshop part of the Suite.
Am I able to upgrade the Photoshop portion, upgrade the complete Suite or do I have to purchase a new student copy of CS5 Photoshop.
Thanks in advance.

Bob -- I appreciate your bad news
Looks like I'll qualify for a teachers copy of CS5 -- I guess I'll pick one of those up.
I had a quick glance at your article & am sure that both I & my children (students) will find it of use.
Best to you & thanks again.

Subject: Adobe Creative Suite CS3 Design Premium Student Upgrade?
First things first...there are no student upgrades. If you're still eligible you can buy the software at student prices.
In the case of actual upgrades, no, you can't upgrade an individual sutie component.

Adobe creative suite cs3 design premium

Hi there,
I've recently bought the new macbook pro (10.9.2) and was wondering if the ADOBE CREATIVE SUITE CS3 DESIGN PREMIUM software would still work on the new laptop? If anybody could help me, it would be most appreciated.
Regards,
Amy

I just had a look at some of the Adobe CS3 products at Roaring Apps (http://roaringapps.com/apps?index=a) and it seems that most of the apps in the CS3 Design Premium Suite will, surprisingly, work with Mavericks.
Not you'll just have to find a way to install it (unless you're restoring from a backup - in which case you'll probably still need your activation code).
Good luck,
Clinton

CS3 Design Premium won't install - Asking for CS4 disk 1

I own both CS3 Design Premium and CS4 Production Premium on my iMac with Snow Leopard. Mac OS X 10.5.8
I have all CS4 programs installed. I only have Dreamweaver installed on CS3.
I need to use InDesign and tried to install from CS3 Design Premium disk. After disk one runs for a short time, the program asks me to insert disk 1 from CS4 Production Premium. After reading that disk, it asks to put CS3 disk 1 in. These messages continue and I can't get anywhere.
Anything I can do? Uninstall both programs and reinstall?
Thanks

Inserting the disks over a dozen times a piece finished the installation.

CS3 Design Premium help menu

I have the CS3 Design Premium installed on my computer
and I have no help menu in any of the programs. I select Help
opening the Help window, select my program in the browse menu,
write my topic in the search box and get absolutely nothing. Did my
program not install correctly. It was so wonderful in CS2.

Mac or PC?
Which OS?

Please Insert Adobe CS3 Design Premium to Continue Installation

Hey there,
I purchased the download version of CS3 Design Premium 3 years ago. I backed up the program to a DVD-R and my external hardrive. My computer crashed and I found was unable to install from my back up copies but was able to download it from adobe.com and installation from the downloaded files went smoothly.
When I reinstalled the suite on my Windows Vista Business HP Desktop, however, I decided not to install Dreamweaver. I just tried to install it now. All was going well until I was prompted to insert the CS3 Design Premium installation disc. I inserted the back up disc I made (no other files on it) and the message box won't budge.
All the CS3 components are working great on my system, I just would like to add Dreamweaver. I also would like to protect myself should the download link become unavailable in the future (right now I'm downloading the suite to my computer). Plus it'd be sweet not to have to wait 3 hours to download each time if possible.
So my question is could someone please assist me in making a backup of my software that works so I can reinstall the suite or individual programs in the future?
Thank you, thank you, thank you. And thank you again.
Liz
Update: I signed into My Adobe and downloaded CS3 to my desktop, unzipped files, and proceeded to install a few components (after deactivating CS) and the same thing happened - Please Insert Adobe CS3 Design Premium to Continue Installation. I have legal copy of this software that was nearly 2,000, and I can't seem to find any solution after searching for hours on end. I've considered buying an upgrade (the box/disc version) but I'm not sure I'd be able to upgrade if I can't get CS3 to move beyond this error message. I'm feeling frazzled If anyone could help me clear this hurdle I would be so grateful.

Hey Mylenium,
I appreciate your taking the time to write. I have the files backed up on a 500GB WD Passport. I also burned the files on cd and dvd. You hit the nail on the head with the installer getting hung up on searching for "the magic key." Thanks for the advice re more damage than good re installing separate apps. Too bad it was listed an option if it doesn't truly work. Otherwise I would have installed everything on my system the first time round. Helpful to know know for the future..
My concern about uninstalling everything is that I may run into the same issue during installation. As mentioned prior, I was able to reinstall my software after my computer crashed but only from the download link on adobe.com. Yesterrday an adobe rep told me that the link to my purchased download is only active for 3 years. I purchased my software in March 08 and the link allowed me to download just fine but his comment concerned me. Do you know if Adobe has any plans to deactivate links for prior purchases?
I plan on upgrading but believe I will need access to my original software for the upgrade to work. Or does one get a full copy of the software when upgrading to CS 5.5 with a valid license? I know that my Intuit and Microsoft Suite products work that way.

CS3 Design Premium - Acrobat error on installation

Hi,
I have the CS3 Design Premium Suite. Up until about 2 weeks ago, I wasn't having any issues with it. I primarily use Photoshop/Dreamweaver/Flash, but was happy to have Acrobat and the Reader for functionality.
Well, I reinstalled the entire suite, due to issues with Photoshop. I thought it was best to start out clean again, so I installed everything. I do believe that was the beginning of this new issue. :(
When the suite installation was complete, there was an error message. It read:
Errors 1 Component(s)
Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional (at install older versions get upgraded)
Component install failed
It wasn't kidding, it really did fail! I can't even use Adobe Reader for my .pdf files anymore. :(
I attempted to uninstall the product and I was unsuccessful in that. I then did a repair/install and got the same error message. I changed the name of the existing Acrobat folder on my computer, so the install would have to create an entirely new directory. The install still fails.
It all worked before and I have not added any new hardware to my system.
I am running Windows XP Pro, SP3.
and for those that know me on these fora this next sentence is unncessary, but for those who do not know me, yes, it's a legit, non-pirated version of the software! ;)
Thanks for any help!
Hopper

thanks graf, I'll head over there.
back ...
I did try some of the suggestions that were mentioned in someone else's post and they didn't work for me. I'll make my own post. I did see something mentioned about issues with SP3 ...
Hey, do you have a link for the cleanup utility from MS (didn't look yet, just thought I would ask in case you had it handy! ;))
thanks!
