CS5 on a mac

I purchased Photoshop CS 5 about a year ago for windows and after having numerous problems with it moved to a mac. Is there a way to download my Photoshop to the new mac even though it was originaly purchased for a PC? Or should I just forget it and purchase a different product that is compatable with the mac. I would really like to keep the Photoshop but if I will have to repurchase it wont be worth it. Any help would be great. Thanks.

Conantj23 you can swap from PC to Mac or vice versa. For additional details around the process please review Order an Adobe product platform swap or language swap.

With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

I just purchase a brand new mac computer and I need to purchase new adobe CS software. Do you know if Adobe CS5 Design Premium-MAc is compatible with new mac computers with the updated software?

I just purchase a brand new mac computer and I need to purchase new adobe CS software for work. Do you know if Adobe CS5 Design Premium-Mac is compatible with new mac computers with the updated Yosemite software? *No previous adobe CS software versions are on this computer

There are known technical issues with any older version on Yosemite, even CS6. Some can be worked out, others may not be relevant to you, some will remain unsolved.

Can I repair an OnLocation CS5.5 for Mac MOV file that was corrupted by a crash?

Hi,
I have a 16Gb MOV file from OnLocation CS5.5 for Mac that has been corrupted. The program froze and then crashed mid record and the file is now unusable. Is there any way that the file can be repaired or the video footage recovered?
Thanks,
Larry

I believe it's a DV file in a MOV container but I'm not certain since OnLocation for Mac gives no options for configuring the codec etc.
Looking at posts about the windows version in seems that it uses a dummy header and replaces it with the real thing when you stop the recording. I was wondering if the Mac version does something similar and if it does an the header from a working file be transplanted across somehow.
Thanks,
L

I am running CS5 on my MAC OS10.6.8 and I want to upgrade my OS to 10.8 or 10.9. Will my CS5 continue to work and do I have to reinstall anythig?

I am running CS5 on my MAC OS 10.6.8. I want to upgrade my OS to 10.8 or 10.9. Will my CS5 work and do I have to do anything to keep it working when I install the new OS?

It should upgrade fine.
Worst case is you'll need to run the Adobe Cleaner Tool (link below), then reinstall from your original discs:

Can't open DNG files created with Mac CS5 downloader in Mac CS4 Photoshop

I recently installed CS5 on my mac but I kept CS4 installed as well. I notice that I cannot open DNG files created with CS5 in Photoshop CS4. Bridge CS4 shows the files only as icons - no image thumbnails. I am able to open these same files on a Windows version of CS4. Is there some plugin for my mac CS4 that will enable me to access the DNG files created with CS5? Is there a way to use my CS5 downloader when converting my raw files from my camera to DNG files that will make them compatiple with PS and Bridge CS4?

Well, yes...but you'll need to modify your DNG Converter prefs to allow for that. You''ll need a recent (ideally current DNG Converter 6.4.1 or above) and click on the DNG Converter preferences and select the correct DNG Converter options. Check DNG Converter 6.4.1 (the current version) and click on "Change Preferences" to be sure select Camera Raw 5.4 and later then make sure CS4 is updated to ACR 5.7 (which is the last version of ACR for CS4) However, the changes made to ACR 6.x really should be adopted since IQ for ACR 6.4.x is a lot better...

My student has been using Lightroom 4 with Photoshop CS5 on her Mac for well over a year. Because of the difference between the Camera raw version available to her in Photoshop CS5 and the raw process in Lightroom 4, she has been exporting her raw images

Any ideas?

My student has been using Lightroom 4 with Photoshop CS5 on her Mac for well over a year. Because of the difference between the Camera raw version available to her in Photoshop CS5 and the raw process in Lightroom 4, she has been exporting her raw images from Lightroom and choosing the "Render using Lightroom option when it popped up in the dialogue box. She has been doing this for over a year and a half without any problem. Today when she hit Command E no dialogue box appeared and the image just opened in Photoshop. I'm concerned that all of her Lightroom edits are not being rendered to Photoshop. Anyone have an idea as to how we can get the "Render using Lightroom" dialogue back?

I need to work with the RAW files on a SONY RX100III. I use Photoshop CS5 and a Mac operating system OSX 10.6.

I need to work with the RAW files on a SONY RX100III camera. I use Photoshop CS5 and a Mac operating system OSX 10.6. Is there an Camera RAW upgrade or an alternative program that works here?

You don't. Since you have an Intel Mac, buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store.

PS CS5 on a Mac, moving cropped images

I'm using CS5 on a Mac, referencing Adobe Photoshop CS5: Classroom in a Book. I'm stuck on Ch. 10 "Advanced Compositing". I cropped, applied and saved 3 images to move to another image. However, when using the Move tool, the entire images are moved, not just the cropped areas. What have I missed??? Thank you.

Download and install. Use the serial number from the disc to activate.

Issues installing Photoshop CS5 in my Mac Book Pro

I have heard that there are issues installing Photoshop CS5 in case sensitive Snow Leopard drives. How do I know if I have a case sensitive drive. I was able to download the 30 trial version of Photoshop CS5. My file system is listed as - Journaled HFS+. Is anyone familiar with this issue and will I have this issue installing Photoshop CS5 on my Mac? Thanks.

As you had already downloaded the installer, give it a try. Well if your file system is Journaled HFS+ installer will not report any error related to file system.
To check the file system -
Finder > File > New Finder Window
Select only the volume under Devices for which you wish to get the file system information.
File > Get Info
Under General tab check Format:
I believe it would be just "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" in your case. For case-sensitive it would be like -
"Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled)" or "Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive)"

Hi Mike.

Do i have it? I dont even want this. Do i need it?
- Disk Utility I dont see Repair Permissions anywhere.

Elements 9 project file to Premiere Pro CS5.5 on Mac

Alas: windows only.

Change language in premiere pro CS5.5 for MAC ?

I uploaded CS5.5 for mac, in french.
I managed by reading AE forum to change AE into english but for premier I am lost !
Anyone with a light around ?

I think Premiere defaults to the language that the operating system is set to. But if you purchased in a specific language, then Premiere might have the necessary files for only that language. If there's a way to specify a different language through the UI, I'm not aware of it.
Please note that you posted this on the OnLocation forum, which is a separate product from Premiere. You will have better success posting on Premiere's own forum.
