How can I download and install PCS5 (i have serial nu) when MacBookPro only shows Bridge CS5 and defaults to CS4?

I may have inadbertenly deleted CS5 Photoshop in error or it never installed. I had a time when HD was 99 percent full so I started deleting CS3,4 etc Photoshop, Bridege. I remember downloading for this laptop the CS5 for Mac , Bridge, Raw, DNg all that but it was over a year ago.
Download file shows unable to install CS5 Photoshop not all there (paraphrase). I cannot seem to find support at Adobe web site where downloads are available as long as they have your information. My information is all there.
I don't understand the new Download Manager but i downloaded it and it seems to deal with creative suite and mobile apps.
Do I have a conflict with my outdated unsupported Creative suite from pre intel Adobe I think CS7?   I was on phone for long time. the lady couldn't speak good english . She put me on hold after asking twice (two holds) if she could transfer me to tech support. then bumper phone is dead, i.e. i got cut offf. So am on phone again.
Am almost 70 and do not want to buy a subscription for photoshop to edit when i can live with CS5 and i would like to upgrade LR to match CS5. Everything works on my IMAC since I paid for CS5. It is this laptop I having trouble getting CS5 Photoshop installed.  Do I have to agree to the free Creative Suite trial?  I don't want to shoot myself in foot, i.e. ruin chance to just keep using what I own.  I understand they want us all to pay a monthly subscription for all the applications we paid good money for to keep upgrading. Nice to be able to change rules after ownership.  I wish Adobe hadn't been bought up my sd;fans as it has gone downhill from their logos to their ruining apps like Word did with adding a zillion icons when we all know how to use shortcuts to choose Levels.  I hate the new format it is more confusing. I spent a lot of money learning and loving Photoshop.
Please help . What do I do?

Hi,
I hate to say so, but I'm not far behind you in years. So anyway I'll try and help you out as a user and forum volunteer.
So let's see if I can properly answer your questions.
First off, never delete Adobe products on a Mac. You use the uninstaller found in the program folder. Photoshop CS5 for example,
Use the CS Cleaner to get at those bits the uninstaller missed.
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
Here the direct download link from Adobe for CS5 Installers.  Mac included.
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-product-downloads.html
If you do not have your serial number at the ready, go here to this link,
https://www.adobe.com/account/my-products-services.html
Sign in with the adobe ID and password you registered your products under.
Under "My Products" You will see what you purchased and a triangle next to it.
Click on that triangle to see your serial numbers.
If it is an upgrade, get the serial number from the previous version while you are there.
That should be enough for you to go on. Any further questions, I'll give it a try.
Don't worry about Creative Cloud. Adobe might advertise it, but you decide if you need it.

    Might have luck with that here >  Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer on the iTunes Store.
    Make sure and use the same Apple ID that was used for the original purchases.

    They work just fine. whatever issues you have are specific, but without proper system info, browser info and other details nobody can even begin to guess.

    Geez, that's pretty boneheaded, IMHO.  Just goes to show one of the major flaws of the App Store model of distributing software...  You can't get older versions of software, no matter what.  >:-(
    I agree!

    I am concerned about the health of my current computer but have not yet made the commitment to a new one, but:
    1) How can I transfer my iTunes account to a new computer when I get one...
    and
    2) What can I do if my current computer suddenly implodes and I have not yet 'copied/'saved'/otherwise protected my account, as is? -- I have already had my computer crash once and had one of your people help me restore all of the paid for songs (none of the uploaded from my own collection of CD songs, of course, so I had to spend a long time rebuilding that) -- and I believe I was told you could only help me recover that material one or two times altogether, no?
    WithOUT purchasing a Mach or iCloud (I actually think I have one of the later, but rarely have checked it) account, is there anything I can do to responsibly protect my account?
    Thanks for any time taken on this!!!

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should  merge the existing data from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

    You should always have a backup copy.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    If you are in the U.S., then you can use the newly released beta version of the cloud to get your music.  open itunes, go to the itunes store, look under Quick Links, click Purchased

  • When I connect my digital camera to my iPad it will only download the stills, not the videos. How can I download the videos? I have the USB and HDMI connectors for the iPad.

    When I connect my Leica digital camera to my iPad it will only download the photos not the videos. How can I download the videos anyone please?

    If your camera has an SD memory card, use the camera connection kit & the SD card to download to the iPad. That's what I do.
    Another way that will work. Download the video(s) to your computer. Then you can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    First, Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie file into the folder. The movie file must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie file should appear & you can import.

  • How can I download a video that I have stopped

    I have stopped a video download accidentally by pushing the stop button in iTunes
    The problem is that I can't continue the download now. There is no download area
    Available in the store anymore. In the video area is a grey monitorsymbol next to the
    Name of the video instead of the thumbnail. When I press it to watch the video I can
    Only stream it. How can I download the video like the other ones? Thanx for helping. :)

    See: iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
    Have you tried to download the movie on your computer and sync it to your device, since there is no download area in the store on your device?

  • How can I download ios5 I don't have a computer

    I don't have a pc how can I download ios5 onto my iPad 2

    First off, you should post your question in the proper forum section.  This section is for discussion about the Thunderbolt displays, not iPads.
    but to answer your question, you can't.  Since you are currently running version 4.3.3, it doesn't have the over-the-air software update feature.  That feature came out with version 5.0.1.  You will need to use a computer (or use a friend's computer or take it into the Apple Store) to update the iPad.  Once you have updated it to iOS 5, then you will be able to get future updates without a computer.

  • How can I stop all the messages in a thread opening when I only click on 1 of them?

    I click to open a mail and the others in the thread also open. I only want to open one at a time. [I'm new to Thunderbird, I used to use Outlook Express. ]

    re I click to open a mail and the others in the thread also open.
    when you select to read an email which is part of a thread:
    A single click on email will display it in the Message Pane below.
    A double click will open in a new tab or window if you have this up.
    A right click and select 'Open in conversation' will open a new tab showing all received and your sent responses in that thread as a list, which if you switch off the threading and choose sort by Date, will reorder the list.
    What do mean by open?
    Are you saying that several tabs or windows open all at once?
    OR
    Do you mean that you can see the email response in the Message Pane but below that email there is some more From,Sent, To, Subject headers and email content, which is what the sender was replying about.
    If yes, that's because the person 'Replied' or 'forwarded' the email, so that it is part of the email.

  • How can I download the previous version of Flash, CS6. It's not showing up on the list when I click previous versions in my CC account

    Hi
    Turns out flash CC is not supported in google clickTag. I need to install the previous version of flash being CS6. Flash CC will not allow you to publish to previous versions as 10.3 is the lowest it goes. Will this feature be added to flash CC. Most sites don't support anything over flash player 9. It doesn't make much sense. Why was this not implemented in the new CC 2014?
    For now I will try and download the CS6 version however even that's proving to be difficult. It's not an option in my previous version list. Please help

  • How can i remove items from list that have been deleted when i click on them it keeps showing empty

    how can i remove items from the list that have been deleted when i click on them it keeps showing folder empty

    Actually, Reader SHOULD keep showing documents that no longer exist, I disagree. It's no big deal, and people will quickly realise why they can't open the file. They open more files, the old ones move off.
    The REASON why it should not check is that checking whether a file exists can take a long time when things aren't good. For instance if a file server goes down, or a memory card is unplugged. That in turn would mean delays opening the File menu, and I've seen some software that can sit there for several minutes. That would really give people something of which to complain...

  • How can I download from CS2 Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Pro when I don't live in the United States?

    I am using XP Virtual machine and need to create PDFs from Word 2003 for a client but I can't activate after installation as the Activation server has been taken down.  Same issue with Adobe Digital Editions.

    What country do you live/work in? Not all countries are allowed to use Acrobat software for several reasons especially the encryption features.
