How do I get my CS5 on my iMac 1 onto my newer iMac 2?

I got Creative Suite 5 in 2010, downloaded it from Adobe.com onto my Late 2006 iMac (OS X 10.7.5 Lion). I am buying a newer (it's a year and half old now)  iMac (OS X 10.7.5 Lion) from a friend. I have my serial number for CS5. How can I get my CS 5 Applications also onto my new iMac?
1) Is there a place on Adobe.com where I can download CS5 after inserting my number?
2) Is there some other way?
I am not technically experienced, so any simple-step guide is welcome.
Thanks!
Tess

Same here for Creative Suites, amazingly enough. I just checked my own orders.
I see download links and serial numbers for point products but no serial numbers nor download links for Creative Suites from CS4 onwards.
In the line entries for Creative Suites, I only see the unhelpful advice to "Please find your serial number inside your product's packaging". Most people would use My Orders because they cannot find the serial number in the packaging!
In my experience, Adobe's record-keeping has an inconsistent and less than helpful approach for managing details of my past orders. It's a crapshoot at times so I've stopped relying on them for my downoads and serial numbers.
I have always found the prodesigntools link to work reliably for downloads so you should be OK with that, provided you have got your serial number. But I do keep my own multiple backups of everything I purchase online.

  • How do I get my music from my ipod onto my new imac

    I have an ipod mini and just bought a new imac. When I plug the ipod in it says it is already sync'd to one library and I cannot sync it to another. I am clueless about how to get my music onto my computer...lol. This is probably complicated by the fact that I've never had a mac before. I also bought a new nano so once I get my music onto the mac I want to get it onto the new nano. Maybe I am doing this all bassackwards?
    Appreciate any help you can give!

  • HT1329 How can I get the songs on my iPod onto my new iTunes library?

    I have an iPod that was synced to another iTunes library on another PC.  The PC died and I replaced it with a MacBook Pro but it keeps saying the iPod is synced w/ another iTunes library.  How can I get the songs on my iPod on the new iTunes library?

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):
    - Expod (free) - http://www.headlightsoft.com/expod/ - Mac, universal for 104.+ (newer machines try de-Tune)

  • How can I get my old classic iPod library onto a new computer without losing either library? The songs on my iPod are from hundreds of CD's I don't want to re-import

    My original iPod has my old CD collection on it, hundreds of them painstakingly imported. Over the years, I have got new iPod, new iPhone, new computer, and run a separate iTunes library. But now I want my old collection on my computer. How can I get this old iPod music converged with my newer music and computer, without having to wipe out a library or lose any music?

    Hello jlfromcorona,
    Use the manual method of copying all the music from your iPod Classic, to your new Mac.  See this article for instructions.

    i have a new computer how do i get my back up music on to the new computer

    Backup to what? If you have the old computer and don't have a backup then I suggest doing so, not just for this situation but it's a good idea in general to have important data backed up.

  • How do i get the music on my phone onto a new itunes account

    I need help getting the songs on my phone onto my new computer and onto itunes

    If they were purchased from the iTunes Store, File>Transfer Purchases in iTunes. If they were not, then you can't. Media sync is one way. Computer>iPhone.
    Why don't you just transfer your media library from your old computer to the new one?

  • How do I download my purchase of Adobe Elements onto my new iMac

    Help - I thought it would be easy! I have the serial number of the full package which i bought only a couple of months ago. But when i try to download it onto my new iMac I only get offered the trial version, although my Adobe ID knows that I have bought it and shows me the serial number.
    Thanks so much if you can help!

    Hi Jenny,
    Please enter the serial number in the installed trial version software to convert it into full version.

    Are you saying your iTunes doesn not have your songs?  If not, where would they be?  If on an older iphone, then they should have gotten there via itunes and itunes has them.
