How can I install Mac Creative Suite 5.5 on Windows 8 w/ no CD slot?

In college we were roped into buying Macbooks for our courses. We were given Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 and I distinctly remember the IT guy telling us it had the capability of running on one Apple product and one Windows product. Now that I no longer have my Macbook and I'm using a new Windows 8 laptop with no slot for a disc, how do I install the creative suite? Was the IT guy just yanking my chain? I would greatly love to not have that software go unused.

Normally when you bought a Creative Suite the license is good for one platform or the other, but not both.  Though you might have had some special licensing arrangement for the school.
If you want to take a shot at it... you can download the trial version of the software thru the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.
Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site and have cookies enabled in your browser or else the download will not work properly.

  • How can I install Adobe Creative Suite without a CD-ROM?

    My old computer died and I have a copy of Adobe Creative Suite that I would now like to install on my new Mac, however, the MacBook Air does not have a CD ROM.
    I still have a copy of the serial number and coupon code. How can I install/download this software without using the DVDs?

  • Im changing my PC to a new one, how can I transfer Adobe Creative Suit from my old PC to my new PC?

    Im changing my PC to a new one, how can I transfer Adobe Creative Suit from my old PC to my new PC? I bought it online, so the serial is on my profile.

    You need to install the software on the new machine the same way you installed it on the old machine.  You are allowed to have two activated installations if you would like to retain the original installation as a backup.  If not, then you should deactivate it (Help -> Deactivate in any program),
    If you have a download link in your account online you can use that or you can download thru the page linked below...

  • Can you install Adobe Creative Suite CS3 on a 2012 Macbook Air running Lion?

    Can you install Adobe Creative Suite CS3 on a 2012 Macbook Air running Lion?

    Are you talking about adobe creative cloud? 
    If you are, the Adobe Creative Cloud give you most of Adobe's tools (and all that most would need) to do anything.  I will warn you about this though, is that it is a subscription, and you are basically renting it.  that means you really do not own it.
    About the hard disk space, all Adobe apps seem to take up at least a GB (and this does not matter if you get the master collection or the Creative Cloud).  so ether way, it will take some space. 
    Also, if you want to try-before-you-buy, you can go to creative.adobe.com, and get a free account and try out all of he adobe apps available for creative cloud.  The best part of it, your apps will be updated to CS7 (if or when it comes out) instead of buying the apps again in your subscriptions.  if you need even more information, you can go to adobe's site to find out more (www.adobe.com)

  • HT202796 how can i install mac os x 10.4 an a external hardrive

    how can i install mac os x 10.4 an a external hardrive

    Boot the Mac from the 10.4 installation disk, confirm with Disk Utility that the external drive is formatted as Mac OS X Extended (Journaled) with the appropriate partition type (GUID for an Intel Mac, Apple Partition Map for a PowerPC Mac), select the external hard drive as the disk on which to install, and install.
    You posted in the Mac OS X 10.7 Lion forum, by the way. You'll usually get the quickest and most applicable responses if you ask in the forum for the product or service about which you're asking.

  • How can i install Mac OS on toshiba intel celeron satellite  L450-9P

    can i install Mac OS on in Windows 7? for dual-boot purpose

    But you can install Windows on a Mac via Bootcamp for dual boot.
    For the purposes of Windows®, a Mac is just a generic piece of PC hardware, so installing on to it is permitted by Microsoft's EULA.  On the other hand, Apple have explicitly stated in the EULA for OS X "Mountain Lion" that it should only be installed and run on Apple-branded hardware.  Section 2, Paragraph B, Sub-section 1:
    you are granted a limited, non-transferable, non-exclusive license […] to download, install, use and run for personal, non-commercial use, one (1) copy of the Apple Software directly on each Apple-branded computer…
    (emphasis mine)
    Section 2, Paragraph H:
    The grants set forth in this License do not permit you to, and you agree not to, install, use or run the Apple Software on any non-Apple-branded computer, or to enable others to do so.
    Also, discussion of how to run OS X on non-Apple branded hardware is against these forums' Use Agreement, Section 2 Paragraph 8, including Sub-section 1:
    Keep within the Law
    No material may be submitted that is intended to promote or commit an illegal act.
    This thread'll be reported by someone if any salient advice is offered that enables the OP in his endeavour.
