How can I get CS3 to open on new iMac with 10.6.4?

Just bought a new iMac and am trying to get everything moved over to it.  I use Dreamweaver, Fireworks & Contribute from CS3.  When I try to open any of them (newly installed from the Adobe downloads) I get this error message:
file://localhost/Users/jeanetteg2/Desktop/Screen%20shot%202010-07-11%20at%206.39.27%20PM.p ngLicensing for this product has stopped working.
You cannot use this product at this time.  You must repair the
problem by uninstalling and then reinstalling this product or
contacting your IT administratoror Adobe customer support for help.
Tried uninstalling and reinstalling, still the same....
Tried out Dreamweaver CS5 and don't like the changes they've made - doesn't work near as well for me as my old CS3!

Did you look at the system requirements for CS3?
I am not sure about CS3, but I owned CS2. When I wanted to upgrade to CS4 (I usually skip a version because of the cost), my PowerPC was pretty much obsolete. CS4 requires an Intel-based computer. So I bit the dust and bought a new MacPro (intel-based). Consequently CS2 no longer works on my new Mac, and CS4 does not work on my wife's older Mac (her's is not intel-based). I think it's all a conspiracy to make us buy new computers and software .
good luck,
matt

  • How can I use Aperture 3 on my new iMac with Maverick?

    How can I use Aperture 3 on my new iMac with Maverick?

    Do you own a copy of Aperture, perhaps bought for another Mac?
    If you have not bought Aperture, you need to buy it from the AppStore.
    But if you own Aperture and have it bought from the AppStore on another Mac, sign into theAppStore on your new iMac with the same AppleID you used to buy Aperure on your other Mac.  Then look at the "Purchased" tab of he AppStore. It show Aperture, with the "Install" button to the right. Simply press the "Install" button and download it to your new iMac.  Or if you have bought Aperture on a CD/DVD, run the installer from the CD/DVD on your new mac and immediately run software update to upgrade the Aperture 3. version to version that will run with Mavericks.

  • When entering a new website it overrides the previous site, how can i get it to open a new tab instead

    I DON'T KNOW THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM, I JUST THOUGHT THAT IF THERE IS A WAY TO OPEN A NEW TAB EACH TIME YOU ENTER A NEW WEBSITE WITHOUT OVERRIDING THE PREVIOUS ONE. YOU WOULDN'T HAVE TO REMEMBER TO ENTER THE PLUS SIGN EACH TIME YOU WANT TO OPEN A NEW WEBSITE.

    The setting in Tools > Options > Tabs: "New pages should be opened in": "a new tab/window" is for links that specify a target window to open the link.
    That option allows to divert such links to a new tab instead of a new window.
    For links that do not specify a target use a middle-click or hold down Ctrl and left-click the link or use the right-click context menu to open the link in a new tab or window.<br />
    Left-click a JavaScript link to avoid getting a blank tab.

  • How can I get Font Book to install new fonts with Lion OS X without crashing?

    Font Book is unresponsive using Lion 10.7.1. When I click on Font Book icon in the dock, I get "Application not Responding". Can't install any new fonts. Anyone else having this issue?
    I can get to the open Font Book window if I click on Mission Control to get there, but once there I see spinning wheel, which does not stop.
    Any suggestions on how to get Font Book to work well on Lion?

    Quick update... I removed all non System fonts from ~/Library/Fonts and deleted com.apple.fontbook.plist from ~/Library/Preferences.
    Now FontBook doesn't crash when launched.
    I think I'm going to use a 3rd party application to manage all non Apple/System fonts. Hopefully that will avoid any future problems.

  • How can I get rid of error 9705 on iMac with Firefox update, using Musicnotes site

    I have been downloading successfully from musicnotes.com on this computer until the Firefox update. Help from that site took me through a whole process to be able to print out my purchase, which ended in the error message 9705. AppleCare says it is a Firefox problem. How can I fix this? (Time Machine was not running.)

    I have this problem also and I've tried all the same things you have. None work. Only thing that works is disabling Java in Firefox preferences, which is a pain in the ass because most websites don't work properly when Java is disabled.
    I don't know how to delete Java plugins or delete Java altogether and re-install. Is this possible? or wise?

    I was twoo days searching for the answer.
    Thank you once again!

  • In my received emails, how can I get Firefox to open URL links that begin with "click."?

    In my emails, how can I get Firefox to open links that begin with the word "click."? Instead of giving the me the message that says, for example, "Firefox can't find the server at click.americas.links.hp.com." This also happens when I try to open the links using Explorer.

    This link was not valid when I clicked it. Please contact the person sending these links they do not seem to work. The page takes me to a page that says it will load after 5 seconds, however there is not valid link.

    It's almost certainly too late.

  • How can I set home page for a new tab? how can i get firefox to open the home page every time i open a new tab in Windows vista home basic??

    How can I set home page for a new tab? how can i get firefox to open the home page every time i open a new tab in Windows vista home basic??
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    Firefox can have multiple home pages if you wish. Each home page that will open when starting Firefox is separated by the "|" character.
    See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
    To have new tabs open a specific web site, add one of the following extensions:

  • How can I get iTunes to open to Library instead of the iTunes Store.  It does it on one of my computers.

    How can I get iTunes to open to Library instead of the iTunes Store.  It does it on one of my computers, but I don't know how I did it.

    For me, iTunes always opens to whatever I had selected previously when it was closed.
    In other words, if I had Apps selected when I closed iTunes, the next time I opened iTunes it would be on Apps.

  • How can I get files to open automatically upon download?

    I would like files I download to open automatically and for the download window to be turned off. I know how to turn off the download window, but cannot get files to automatically download.

    Hi JJMack. Thanks for getting back to me.
    I think I've created confusion about what I want. All I want is to end up with a file that is flattened so that I can save it as a tiff without getting a warning that it contains layers. Please correct me if I’m wrong but I’ve always assumed I should always flatten a file before I save it as a tiff unless I specifically want to retain layers or transparency. I’m only talking here of files that open with a single layer: ie. Layer 1. I assume that if I don’t flatten such files the resultant files will be unnecessarily big?
    The only reason I keep saying I want a Background layer is that I know that a flattened file will only have a Background layer. I don’t have any desire for a Background layer per se. I certainly don’t want to add extra layers - quite the opposite.
    So perhaps the question I should have asked should have been:
    How can I get files to open 'ready-flattened' by default so I can save them directly to tiff without having to manually flatten them every time?
    Cheers
