How do I install software from cd-rom onto my IdeaPad S10?

I just received my IdeaPad S10. How do I install software from a cd-rom onto it? I tried putting my cd-rom in my regular laptop and copying it onto a flash drive and then copying it to the IdeaPad. The installation starts, then I get a message that installation has stopped because the installation has been corrupted. Any easy ways to install software?

Here's what you can do.
Download virtual Clone drive (freeware) from here http://www.slysoft.com/en/download.html install it on your S10.
Now on your destop, make a backup ISO of your software CD or DVD.
I use this http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm it integrates with explorer on the right click menu. There are other solutions also.
Once your ISO is created you can copy it to your S10 via network, usb key, etc, and mount it as a drive letter with Virtual CLone drive.
Hope that helps.

How do I go about installing software from a disc (a language programme) onto my ipad2? Someone told me if I downloaded it to iTunes on my PC I could then sync it to the iPad but hav not been able to do that.

Even if there was a convenient way, the software will not run on the pad. Ios is a unique language, and only programs written for ios will run on the pad. All of the programs are in the app store. You might look there and see if the company that makes your sfotware also has an ios version, which would be in the store.

How do I install software from disk on Macbook Air?

I have an external CD player but the Macbook Air doesn't seem to recognise it. So how do I get my software from disk onto my Macbook?

I did not get the "This document is not recognised do you want to choose an application to open it with" error message. It's just that it is not recognizing any content at all on the CD in Finder. I have used this external CD drive before with this Macbook. I also tried to open the docs through Word and it again showed that a CD was in "Devices" as a "Remote Disc" but does not recognize any of the docs on the CD.

How do I install software from DVD on mini with no Optical Drive

I purchased Aperture on DVD at an Apple store in 2007 when the App store did not exist. The new Mac mini does not have an optical drive. I did not migrate applications from my previous Mac mini because it doesn't seem to let you choose which applications. (I had several legacy migrations involved and didn't want that junk on my new mini.) The App store, of course, does not know I've already paid for Aperture and wants to charge me to download it. I discovered you cannot install from another computer's DVD just by mounting that DVD on the target computer. It will tell you it can't install over the network. It also won't let you drag the contents of the DVD onto the target computer (which worked with Office 2011). It will tell you that method of installation is not supported. All Apple could suggest was to buy an optical drive which would have been almost anoher $100. Apple support doesn't seem to understand why Aperture is not in my iTunes purchase history (because iTunes didn't exist for Aperture then!)
I just had a wonderful discovery. I found this support article that details how you have to turn DVD sharing on under Sharing Preferences on the computer that does have the optical drive, then you can use the Remote Disc under Devices on the target computer to request use of that drive. Finally, the installer will run.
I'm putting this info here because I searched but was unable to find this subject in the Support Community. I'm sure someone has asked this question, but I couldn't form a query that would find it.
Article from Apple with instructions for Remote Disc
Now if someone could just tell me how to get the App store turned on for my copy of Aperture so I don't have this issue in the future when no Apple computer will have an optical drive!

Actually, when I followed that link, one of the related links in More Like This was a real find! An actual download of Aperture, albeit a trial, but that would have solved my problem too. I tested it and although it's embeded in a support article, the link to the trial version of Aperture still works.
Thanks! Great info here if you can find it.

How can I get software from a disc onto my macbook air which does not have a disc drive.?

I have macbook air with no disc drive. However, I recently was given some cookbook software as a gift and it is in disc form. Wondering if there is an easy way to get this new software onto my mac. Was hoping I could upload the software to another PC and then burn it to a thumb drive and switch it over that way.Thoughts on if this is doable??
Thanks!

How do I upload software from a CD ROM to an iPad?

I am thnking of buying an iPad but since the iPad does not have a CD drive (thanks to those who just told me) how do I upload software from a CD ROM to an iPad?
I have "Office for Macs" already on my desktop Mac but if I buy an iPad I will need it on that too.
Thanks,
MrDiction

Fold over four times. Align with power/sync connector. Tap gently with hammer.
Seriously, you need to copy the files on to your Mac and then transfer them to the appropriate app on the iPad. This is the procedure for DATA files.
"Office for Mac" is a group of applications written for the Mac and will NOT function on an iPad. Consequently, there is no way that you can get it onto the iPad.

I'm trying to install software from Yamaha keyboards to connect my keyboard to my computer. I insert the CD and nothing happens. Yamaha told me to "find your CD drive" and open the software. How do I find the CD drive?

When you insert a CD/DVD in the optical drive, does an icon appear on the desktop? If not open Finder Preferences and check the appropriate box(s).
Ciao.

How to install software from a purchased cd

How do I install software on mac mini from a purchased cd without buying an external drive. The other Imac on my network does not have cd sharing- running Tiger. Any other possibilities?

Your options are:
- ask the company that makes the software if they offer a download option;
- find another Mac with an optical drive that either will support Remote Disk or that you can use to generate a disk image from the install disk (note that some disks carry copy protection and cannot generate a workable disk image);
- buy or borrow an external optical drive.
Regards.

How to install software from imac to macbook pro

how to install software from imac to macbook pro

Are you using one of the newer iMac's with no DVD drive? If so, you can either get an external CD/DVD drive (any make - doesn't have to be Apple) or, if you have another Mac on the same network that has a CD/DVD drive you may be able to do it by turning on 'DVD or CD Sharing' on that Mac (System Preferences>Sharing). Hopefully you'll see the disk on the Mac without the DVD drive and be able to install from there.
