CS4 on my new iMac?

Just purchased a new iMac 10.9.2 I transfered all my data from the old mac to the new including CS4. Now I can't run CS4 because of an error 150:30 "Licensing for this cproduct has stopped working" How do I make my software work again on my new computer?

I kind of thought so but I wasn't sure, so I just reinstall from the CD I have from years ago?

    I was directed to adobe to download CS4 on my new iMAC after hardware failure on PC.  The valid CS4 serial number for the PC is now not recognized by Adobe, even though I downloaded all the software successfully on the new iMac..  They gave me a free 30 day trial on the new iMAC.........Does this mean I have to spend a lot of money to update and activate the latest CS release on the new machine ??????

    Purple Lobster your Creative Suite 4 serial number is for Windows or Mac only.  If you were previously using it on Windows then it is likely you have a Windows license.  You can verify by checking your serial number at http://www.adobe.com/.  You can find more details at Find your serial number quickly - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html.
    If you wish to run Adobe Creative software on your new iMac then I would recommend a Creative Cloud complete or single application membership.  You can find more details at https://creative.adobe.com/plans.  There is also a 30 day trial available for the Creative Cloud if you wish to evaluate the newest versions of the Adobe Creative applications.

  • Loading CS4 Illustrator onto New Imac

    I have recently upgraded my old Imac (5 years old) with a new Imac.
    I successfully transferred all files apps etc from the old mac to the new mac.   I uninstalled CS4 from my old mac and   tried to load CS4   to my new Imac and it will not launch???
    What have I done incorrectly??
    Thanks for any help on this matter.

    You may have already done this so forgive me if you have, but I would try deleting the contents of the /Library/Printers/Canon/BJPrinters folder. I would then navigate to the /Library/Receipts and delete the Canon MP610 xxx.pkg file.
    Then control-click on the Printers list in Print & fax and click on "Reset printing system..."
    Then empty the Trash, unplug the MP610 USB and restart the iMac.
    Then I would install the MP610 v6.91 OS X driver. I found it via the Canon Australia web site (http://www.canon.com.au/products/allin_one_printers/all_in_one_printers/mp610support.aspx).
    Once the installation is complete, reconnect the MP610 to the iMac and wait. The printer should automatically appear in the Print & Fax application.
    Also, in future, you should be posting this on the Leopard printing forum...

  • CS4 Problems on new iMac

    1. I installed CS4 on my new iMac running Mavericks. I ran the updater but the updater can't update itself ("couldn't access disc image") so now I can't update any of the CS4 components. Help!
    2. My RAW files (imported from my previous Mac using Time Machine) all appear as unconverted DNG files. I'd like to avoid spending hours converting them all again. Is this a CS4 problem or maybe a Mac problem? Should I restore my photo library from Time Machine again, now that I've installed CS4? Any ideas on solving these problems would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

    CS4 is unsupported under Mavericks. Someone who has successfully done this
    may be able to help, but unfortunately you're pretty much on your own here.

  • Cannot install Photoshop CS4 onto a new iMac

    I have just bought a new iMac and want to put my Photoshop CS4 on it. It has previously been on my 5 year old MacBook Pro. I have downloaded the .dmg file from the adobe website but as soon as I open it up and click on the setup icon a pop up opens saying "Cannot Install Please click the Quit button". This all happens before I am given the option to put in a product key. I have just done the same process with Lightroom 2 and it worked fine. Any ideas?

    Yes, it seems you are downloading the wrong thing.

  • CS4 migration to new iMac results in fatal error

    HI, I have CS4 installed on an older iMac.  I just bought a new one (without a disc drive).  I migrated all my files across to the new machine.  CS4 gives me the following error when I try and open an image.  Fatal error - missing component  /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Version Cue CS4/Client/4.0.0/VersionCue.framework.  (The version cue has already been disabled in both photoshop and Bridge) Any help will be much appreciated
    Thanks, Stew

    Try downloading/installing the trial version from the site linked below.  You can use your serial number to activate it to full use.
    Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site or else the download will not work properly.

  • Error Code 6 on trying to install a previously bought CS4 from an older Macbook Pro to a new iMac.

    Iam trying to install my Photoshop CS4 onto my new iMac that I used on an older Macbook Pro that no longer works but when I try to install it I get an error code 6. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Murray,
    These illustrate what I'm experiencing.
    Image #1 - Shows the template file open and the place it is and always has been saved.
    When this template is saved DW does not offer to update the site pages that use this template as expected.
    So I attempt to update the pages via Modify:Templates:Update Pages and this is where I encounter the 'error -43' message.
    You asked for a file. Please be more specific as to what file or files. Presume you'd want the source code in a text file, correct?
    I appreciate you time and interest.

  • InDesign CS4 crashing upon startup after migration to new iMac

    Hi,
    I recently used Migration Assistant to move the contents of my old iMac that was running OS X 10.5.8 to my new iMac that is currently running OS X 10.7.3.  Unfortunately, everytime I attempt to start up InDesign CS4, it crashes without giving me an error message. I previously could not start up Illustrator CS4 on this new iMac and I received this error message:
    "Fatal error - missing component /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Version Cue CS4/Client 4.0.0/VersionCue.framework"
    and I was able to transfer the folder Client 4.0.0 to my new iMac and get Illustrator CS4 up and running.
    What can I do to get InDesign running on my new iMac?

    Because you moved many of the CS4 files onto your computer, you need to remove them before doing a new install.
    There is an Adobe Cleaner tool which can remove components of the incomplete installation. Here is a link to it:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
    You won't be able to download CS4 from Adobe. They only have downloads of the current version. You didn't back up your original download?

  • On New iMac 10.8, CS4 Program quit unexpectedly when trying to print

    I can't print since I have reinstall CS4 on my new iMac with english system 10.8. Program quit unexpectedly when I want to print. Is there a solution?

    You might have been able to just reapply the OS 10.4.10 COMBO update for PPC or the OS 10.4.10 COMBO update for Intel without having to have gone through the motions of an archive and reinstall, with subsequent combo update.

  • Indesign CS4 and Indesign CS5 on new imac TOGETHER!

    Hi,
    I am purchasing a brand new imac (27in., quad core i5) which comes with the Apple Snow Leopard OS.
    I am also purchasing the CS5 master collection.
    A company that I freelance for is still using CS4 and wants me to create print layouts for them with indesign CS4 (they don't trust the .inx route).
    Will I be able to run the entire CS5 master collection AND just indesign CS4 on my new imac?
    Are there any issues or difficulties that I should be aware of?
    Thanks!!!

    Yes, you will be able to, but make sure you install CS4 first, get that going how you want it, (i.e. at least make sure it's working!) and then install CS5.  If you ever have to uninstall and reinstall CS4 you're in for a bit of fun unfortunately, the only clean way to do it would be to uninstall the whole Master collection first... Having said that heaps of people do exactly what you're describing with no problems.
    On thing to be aware of is that once you have installed CS5 all your CS4 Indesign files will automatically open in CS5 not CS4.  You will not be warned about this until you have worked on it (Murphys law states that this will be for a long time) and go to save, upon which it will ask you for a new save location. The icons are slightly different so you could rely on that to alert you, and just use File > Open from CS4 or drag the files into CS4, or you could look at Soxy, which is a far more elegant solution, but IMHO is still not perfect, although apparently it's better on a Mac than on Windows.

  • Installing CS4 on a new computer.

    I am trying to install CS4 onto a new imac I recently purchased. When I open the program it asks for the serial number for the CS4 product which I enter and get the green check mark. It then asks for an "Upgrade Check" this requires me to enter the product and serial number for which my version of CS4 was an upgraded version. I do not have the packaging or anything for the CS2 software this was an upgrade from, however it is still installed on my old computer. Is there anyway for me to be able to verify the serial number to install CS4 on my new computer. I have attached a screen shot of the second prompt screen. Please HELP!!

    Hi dillonpope7,
    You need to contact customer service to unlock the serial number.
    You can even reach our chat support at http://adobe.ly/yxj0t6

  • Unable to load CS4 to new iMac

    I purchased CS4 from Adobe a few days ago and followed the instructions to load to a new iMac (OS 10.5 4GB Ram) which is a couple of weeks old. This is the first software I have attempted to load onto it.  After trying twice and getting an error message both times  'some of the application components are missing please re-install the application' I contacted tech support at Adobe who walked me through uninstalling and re-installing.  The program appeared to install but the error message came back and now the program is not loading at all. Tech support said they would call me back but I am still waiting many hours later.
    I had many years with PCs but this is my first iMac and I am unsure if the error is with the Mac or the software.I would be grateful for any advice as I am totally lost.

    Gotta say Ann, that sounds an absolutely dreadful solution to your problem, you had to install a DEMO version?!! WHAT!!! seriously?!
    Ya know, with Adobe (and many other software providers) it's kind of like if you bought a brand new car from a car dealership but the driver door had a seal across it saying on it "if you break this seal you agree to the terms and conditions that said manufacturer are imposing", you then break the seal (cos you have to to get in) and then drive the car out of the showroom only to find that on the first turn of the wheel the wheel comes off in your hands, you then go to the dealers and say, "hey, this car isn't working properly, it's rubbish", to which they say "yeah but you agreed to the terms and conditions so it's your problem, but hey, as we're feeling kind we have some sticky tape in the showroom, we'll tape it back on again for you"
    This ain't good enough Adobe, somebody SERIOUSLY needs to look into the licensing issues with software manufacturers, you couldn't get away with this junk anywhere else in industry, so why so for software???!!!
    Either Adobe should produce rock solid software or they shouldn't produce software at all.

  • Can I use Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended on my brand new iMac? I had PS on my old Mac using the student licensing.

    About four years ago, I purchased Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended while I was in undergrad. I downloaded it to my Mac. Since then, I've purchased a brand new iMac. Can I use this same software? I know it's been four years so the software is very updated, AND my new iMac does NOT have a cd drive. This may all be in vain. I'm just clueless! Thanks!
