How do I install PageMaker 7 on a new laptop with Windows 8.1?  Too many files, and nothing brings me to the registration menu.

I am at my wits end trying to install PageMaker 7.0 on my new laptop with System 8.1.  When the disk is inserted, there is a long list of files.  Other times it takes me to the Installation menu - which will not open when I click on it.
My PC is also system 8.1, and somehow the place I bought it from installed PageMaker and it works fine.
I hope you'll email me a response.  I don't want to have to keep logging on here to search for an answer.  Adobe won't help me.
Help.

Pagemaker is ancient, obsolete and unsupported. It was discontinued over 10 years ago. (Though why it is still sold is a mystery.)
If you want to run PageMaker, your best bet is to use a Win2K or WinXP PC.
Otherwise move to Indesign or look at Serif's PagePlus or Scribus.

  • Installing CS2Premium upgrade onto new laptop with Windows 8

    I am trying to install a Creative Suite 2 Premium upgrade onto a new laptop with Windows 8.  The upgrade is from Photoshop 5.0, which I also have the original discs for, but is not installed on this new laptop.  Therefore, the upgrade is not being recognized.  I tried putting the 5.0 disc in and having the installation search for it as verification, but that wasn't working.  I realize both of these programs are ancient, but they are what I have.  So be it.  :-)  Can someone help me figure out how to get my CS2 upgrade to install? 

    Hi tensuns,
    You can download the CS2 Setup from the below mentioned link also please use the serial key mentioned in it.

  • Can't get adobe reader to install on my new laptop with windows 8

    I can't get adobe reader to install onto my new laptop with windows 8. Basically what happens is that I start the download from the adobe screen by clicking the yellow download button, then I click run (I've also tried save and run), then I allow the program to make changes to my hard drive, and then finally a blank grey box appears in the in the middle of the screen, titled "adobe reader installer". After this box appears nothing else happens. I've let it sit for at least 30 minutes and still nothing. I've also disabled my pop up blocker, and set the security settings to default as suggested in other posts. Unfortunately this is the only pdf program that works for the site we have to use to write contracts, so I need to get this figured out asap. Thanks in advance for any help and advice.

    Try installing from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise

    I think you mean Photoshop CS2.  Photoshop 2 is from around 1992.  The old Adobe activation servers were taken down. CS2 is about a decade old Adobe made a new download for old customers that legal customers can download and install. Download Acrobat 7 and CS2 products

  • I bought a new laptop with Windows 7. My computer name in Windows has changed, and now, my Ipad can't find Itunes

    Ok, if reinstalling iTunes as suggested above does not resolve the issue of iTunes recognising the iPad then try this -
    Firstly, make sure that your device is not hidden (left hand pane). If it just reads device then toggle between SHOW and HIDE.
    Secondly, try all the other ports on your computer, even a number of times.
    Thirdly, make sure your lead /connections are no faulty.
    Fourthly, if you have another computer try plugging your device into it without taking any action, give it a moment, remove it and try it back in your other computer again.
    Failing all that, see here - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    And failing all that put the device into Recovery mode. See here and note the paragraph 'If you restore from a different computer.... ' down near the bottom of the page -
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/assistant/itunes/
    As for making your new laptop your 'home computer' follow these instructions -
    1. Without connecting your iPad to your computer -
    A) Install iTunes / make sure the latest version of iTunes is installed.
    B) Go to the Store tab and click on "Authorise This Computer".
    C) Go to Edit, click on Preferences [iTunes and Preferences on Macs] and click on Devices. Put a check mark in the box next to "Prevent  iPods/iPhones/iPads from syncing automatically". Click OK and close iTunes.
    2.  Connect your iPad to your computer -
    A) Start iTunes (it will not start automatically because of the action at 1(C) above).
    B) Right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select "Transfer purchases".
    C) When the transfer has completed, right click on your iPad again and select "Backup".
    D) When the backup has completed, left click on your iPad, click on the Apps tab, and put a check mark in the box next to "Sync Apps", and then click on "Apply" (bottom right).
    E) Unless you want to always do a manual sync (as I do), go back to Edit, Preferences [iTunes and Preferences on Macs] and uncheck the box next to "Prevent your iPod.....".
    F) Finally, on your iPad, check that everything is syncing properly. If not, go back to iTunes and check all settings.
    NB You should not lose any apps. However, any 'purchased' missing apps can be downloaded again FOC. As with updates, this must be done with the Apple ID under which they were originally 'purchased'.

  • New laptop with Windows 7

    I just purchased a new laptop with windows 7 and trying to get my library from my iphone 3G on my new computer? How do I do it? It is all gray'd out when

    This has been a problem since purchased new about 8 months ago. It takes 5+ minutes just to boot up the toshibia.
    The short answer is that you should have returned the computer immediately.
    Just to make certain it's not due to software, restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media. See the instructions in the section Recovering the Internal Storage Drive, which begins on p. 62 of the User's Guide.

    Best to create recovery media in advance in case something goes wrong.

    Just bought a new Laptop with windows 7 and  of course wireless.  Download speeds are horrible (0.2 mbs)  and upload speeds are normal for me ( 8mbs) Have a wrt160N  Wire less router.   Older laptop  and desktop work fine  with normal( around (8mbs) downloads and uploads.  
    How do I fix this? 

    Do you have QOS enabled in your router? Did you try plugging the win7 laptop directly and check the speed?
