Cs4 Design premium language swap (Mac)

Hi there,
I've got a Cs4 in English and I want to swap language for French (for all apps) on the same Mac.
If I deactivate my license then reinstall Cs4 in French, will my serial number work ?
I mean when I buy a licence, can I choose any languages when I settle Cs.
Thanks for your help.

serial numbers are language specific so you won't be able to use your english serial number for a french version.
if you can get the french language packs for your programs, you could rig them to display french.

Possible or not upgrade PC version CS4 Design Premium to Apple Mac version

I have a big problem. Last year I bought a CS4 Design Premium package for the PC. However, I am switching systems to Apple (iMac) in a month and my CS4 for the PC won't work on an Apple Mac system. Buying new photoshop, Illustrator and Indesign is more expensive than I can afford. Is there a way to change or upgrade from PC to Mac? I hope anyone can help me.
Kind regards
Marjolein

Yes its called a Cross-Grade. You need to call Sales dept at Adobe There may or may not be some fee involved. Most software companies allow it. You may be asked to Destroy your PC Disk. Or
You and buy Parallels for your new Mac then install windows on the Parallels Partition (if you already have a Separate Windows install DVD). To get up and running if you don't have a packaged version (not OEM) of windows would be buy buy the cross Grade. If you have a Packaged version of Office laying around then buying Parallels for the Mac would be cheaper.

CS4 Design Premium installation issue

I have an issue when attempting to install CS4 Design Premium on my Mac Mini. The issue begins when the first DVD is finished and the second DVD is requested. The active dialog box is blank with no text and buttons and I am not able to click anywhere in the dialog box.
The only error I get when installing is that I do not have the recommended amount of memory (1GB versus 2GB). My Mac Mini is running Mac OSX 10.5.7 and otherwise complies with the requirements for use.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
-Jamie

So why would the installer simply not allow me to install the product?
That has been my previous experience, so I have no idea why.

Hello, I own a license for Adobe CS5 Production Premium and Adobe CS4 Design Premium for Windows/PC. I am switching to an OSX/MAC system. Is it possible to transfer my licenses to the new platform?

It's possible to transfer licenses but it must be done by contacting a Customer Service representative by phone or web chat. They'll probably have you submit a form.

CS4 Design Premium MAC...Installed But No Flash Showing Up

I have installed Adobe CS4 Design Premium MAC and when I go to the list of programs, Flash Professional does not show up on the list. Does anyone know why? What could be causing that to happen? Are there any known issues with this? Does anyone know how to fix this? Please advise. Thanks in advance for your help.
Tony

sounds like you had Flash trial installed and you did not uninstall it correctly. run the CS4 cleanscript and reinstall everything.

Need Download Link for Mac CS4 Design Premium - my backup DVDs have 'bad sectors' I have my Serial N

I need to find a way to get my 'old' software working on a new imac. My discs have failed, my backup has failed, so Adobe suggested I might find help here.
Can anyone provide a download link so I can install to my new imac? I have the Serial number, I just need a link to download the software (my disk 1 works fine, but 2 is corrupted)
Thanks in advance for any help here.
Ronnie

Thanks so much but clicking on the link on that page gives me a page not found error... so apparently that page no longer has the download files. I do appreciate the suggestion though. (I clicked on the CS4 Design Premium File 1 and File 2 links, same error).

Unable to open Adobe Acrobat Pro after CS4 Design Premium install

I recently purchased Adobe CS4 Design Premium. I attempted to install it Sunday, and it completed with an indication of success. I then tried to open all my applications to make sure everything went well, and Acrobat keeps coming up with the following error: "You can't open the application Adobe Acrobat Pro because it may be damaged or incomplete." I tried to remove it with the uninstaller, and it does not see it. I have tried to install it multiple times. I even swapped out the DVD drive to see if it was having problems reading the disc, but nothing has helped. I even tried to delete it entirely. I currently have a web case open, but they state that can take up to 3 days to be answered. I tried to call technical support, but gave up after an hour on hold. I suspect a bad disc, but I really don't want to have to wait a week or more to get the issue resolved through sending endless emails back and forth with a web case. I was hoping someone would have a good answer to my problem that would not require that. I am trying to install it on a fairly plain OS 10.6.2 system. It is a 2009 Mac Pro Quad with 6GB of RAM. As stated, so far none of the other applications are giving me any issue. It has just been Acrobat Pro.
Thanks.

I ended up finding the probable solution to this problem. I downloaded the trial version of CS4 Design Premium. Seeing that I had already installed CS4, it asked what application I wanted to reinstall. I reinstalled Acrobat. When I opened it the first time, it told me that the licensing server could not be reached. I opened Photoshop, then it again. It has worked fine since then. I have updated it to 9.3.1, so it should be good from here on out.

Anyone install CS4 Design Premium on Windows 7 Professional?

I presently have CS4 installed on Microsoft Vista Ultimate SP2 32-bit o/s using a Intel i7-920 processor . Runs cleanly with no problems whatsoever. I am in the process of upgrading the o/s over to Microsoft Windows 7 Professional but risk de-activating my CS4 I thought I would throw this question out to the readership. I am fortunate enough in obtaining this new o/s prior release and have been tasked to see if all our mission critical applications migrate over cleanly. Sad to say deactivating, re-installing CS3/CS4 can be a nightmare (ask me how I know!) so risk taking down a good CS4 install using Vista down it it's knees I thought I would ask. Has anyone by chance tested installing CS4 Design Premium on any of the new Microsoft 7 o/s' ?

I think I found a solution to running CS4 on Windows 7 (pro 64 bit in my case). There were a few variables I eliminated so I'm not sure exactly which one was key. I am part of an office domain with permissions etc in effect, and that may have been part of the issue. Basically the installer would run but hang around 40% when it was installing "language packs" or "device central" components. It would not generate an adobe error, rather just the usual "program is not responding" error in win 7. If you don't understand my steps, just google the details and you should find methods for each instruction.
What I did:
1. Locate and run the clean script for CS3/4/5 from adobe to remove ALL installation files.
2. Turn off User Account Control in win 7 users settings in control panel.
3. Make sure you find your C:\users\public\documents (calls itself "public documents" in the file browser) and edit the permissions for that folder. Give full control to any user in the list just to be safe.
4. If you are using the downloadable installation as I did, allow the files to unpack onto your desktop as default by the adobe unzipper program.
5. Completely remove ANY antivirus/antispam software and make sure windows defender etc etc is not running. Also turn off windows firewall.
6. Reboot your computer and ensure NO adobe products are listed in the programs and features list under control panel. If there are, remove & reboot again.
7. BEFORE BOOTING: unplug from the network, turn off all wireless so that your computer is completely isolated.
8. Run the installation again, and hopefully it will work for you as It finally did for me after 6 hours of troubleshooting and reading these #*$*# forums.

CS4 Design Premium on a new iMac with Yosemite

I am having trouble installing CS4 Design Premium from the original disks on a new iMac with Yosemite. It keeps going to an upgrade request and won't accept my serial number.
Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?

I am not a Mac person but it sounds to me CS4 is too old for Yosemite.

Upgrade Adobe CS4 Design Premium to CS 6

Hello,
I bought an Adobe CS4 Design Premium liecense for windows and I want to upgrade it to CS6 on Mac.
How can I do this and what are the costs ?
Thank you.
Robert KRISTOF

You don't. You missed your deadlines. You can only buy a fresh CS6 license.

I own Adobe CS4 Design Premium Suite and want to install it on 2 computers in my home. Can I with 1 serial number?

I own Adobe CS4 Design Premium Suite and want to install it on 2 computers in my home. Can I with 1 serial number?

Yes. A single user license allows for activated installations on two machines of the same platform type (Windows versus Mac). A limitation in this allowance is that only one of the machines can be using the Suite software at any given time.

Upgrading CS4 Design Premium to CS5.5 Design Standard

Hi.
I'm currently running the CS4 Design Premium software on my mac, but I want to upgrade to the latest software while I can still get the education price.
This time, however, I think I will get CS5.5 Design Standard rather than Design Premium to save money as I don't use Dreamweaver, Flash and Fireworks as often as I do the other programs.
So, my question is: If I upgrade Bridge, Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign to CS5.5, and Dreamweaver, Flash and Fireworks stay as CS4 versions, will this cause problems, or will they still be fine to use together?
Thanks.

My understanding of educational pricing is that it works for the first purchase of a Creative Suite product. Adobe is very generous because it lets you keep the product after you leave school.
However, there is no such thing as an educational upgrade price. If you want to upgrade your software, you pay the same price as everyone else. Upgrade pricing show shown on the Adobe website. (It's much too complicated for me to remember pricing for all the various upgrades.)

CS4 Design Premium serial number not accepted?

We are trying to move an installation of CS4 Design Premium between computers in our organisation.
It has been successfully unregistered and uninstalled from the original old computer, but we are unable to successfully install it to the new computer.
If we select the English (International) language upon install, the installation fails, citing missing components in the application directory.
If we select English (US) upon install, the installation succeeds but we are unable to enter the provided serial number of the boxed install media - even though it is definitely the correct serial number.
Has anyone else ever seen this odd behaviour and found a way past it?

I haven't seen that strange behavior, but you can chat online with someone from India about it: Adobe Connect Chat Support

New computer, trouble transferring CS4 Design Premium

I had CS4 Design Premium (educational) on my 2006 MacBook Pro. The computer crashed, I bought a 2013 MacBook Pro, and I'm trying to transfer the license/product onto the new computer. I don't have the original discs, but I'd backed the software up in Time Machine. CS4 uploaded onto the new computer, but gave me a licensing error when I tried to open it. I've uninstalled it on the 2013 Mac, got my serial number from MyAdobe account, and am trying to upload it again, but it's telling me my serial number isn't valid.
I've found through the forums/troubleshooting there are a few reasons why this isn't working:
-The new hardware/new Mac software isn't compatible with the CS4
-Every product in the suite has its own serial number and has to be entered individually **(I don't know where to find these individual numbers)
-Educational discs purchased through 3rd parties (college bookstore) might have different serial numbers/product codes
Anyone have any idea how I can make this freakin' thing work? I need to get my CS4 working again for school/work, and can't afford to buy another version.
Thanks!

cs4 is compatible with lion, mt lion and mavericks, but do NOT transfer the files. use the installation files to install your programs.
if you follow all 7 steps you can dl a trial here: http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html
and activate with your serial.
if you have a problem dl'g, you didn't follow all 7 steps. the most common error involves failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).
