How do i register my CS5 Master?

I just installed my master cs5 and can's seem to figure out how to launch the registration window. Did it register automatically when I entered my adobe ID for CS Live services?

You register the suite (or the applications) after you have installed them on your hard drive and launched them..  You don't register the installation media.

  • How to install creative suite 5 master collection?

    I am having two files of Adobe Creative Suite 5 Master Collection[Windows] -
    1) Disk1.iso - 7.09 GB [7.09 GB after extraction]
    2) Disk2.iso - 6.10 GB [6.17 GB after extraction]
    NOTE : I am not having the DVDs or CDs of the CS5 master collection. I am just having the files on my hard disk.
    I extracted them with WinRAR. After that I got the extracted files of both disks. I navigated to ..../...../Adobe CS5/Disk1/Adobe CS5/Set-up.exe. The Disk1 is having setup files. The Disk2 is having only a folder named 'payloads' and many folders within that too. But there is a folder with the same name on Disk1. But the 'payload' folder of Disk2 is very larger in size as compared to that of Disk1. And there is no such 'set-up.exe' file on Disk2.
    The setup (on disk1) runs perfectly. I want to install CS5 master collection completely (I mean that including all the softwares like Ps, Pr, In, Ae, etc. and all other contents). But I am wondering that how can I completely install CS5 Master Collection when only contents of one disk is installed. So, I not installed that because I wanted no problems.
    Can anyone tell me that how can I install this software completely? Do I have to copy contents of 'payloads' ( which is on disk2) to the 'payload' folder of Disk1?
    Will I require to first burn the ISO files on two separate DVD and then begin installation process? Is the Disk2 just having waste contents?
    Please tell me the whole installation process after clicking the "install" button.

    Yes, you have to copy the contents of Disk2 to Disk1 contents the way you said. Or you can follow the steps in following kb article to install the software -

  • How do I get a copy of Acrobat with my CS5 Master Collection???

    I activated my Adobe CS5 Master Collection (running on Snow Leopard) with a serial number purchased from CDW and everything went smoothly, but after a few days of using the core products I typically use I noticed Acrobat was not included in the installed software.
    Now, Adobe lists Acrobat PRO as an included product in the Master Collection and rightfully so since it contans just about every product they make.
    When I emailed Adobe about this but the only response I got was some  pre-formatted auto-response probably sent to me from the help desk in  India or something. The auto-response said absolutely nothing about how to obtain a copy for the Mac, and just had a link taking me to the Acrobat home page, which basically says there is no trial version of Acrobat for Mac available for download.
    I gave up on it since I do not use Acrobat very much but now I am in a situation where I do need to have Acrobat Pro to finish a job and I cannot figure out how to get a copy installed with the Master Collection.
    There was no disclaimer indicating that you would not be able to get a copy of Acrobat when I purchased the downloadable version vs. buying a boxed DVD set, so I am expecting there must be a way.
    Adobe's help has been pretty much useless when I emailed them, and I cannot find anyone with the same problem on Google or in the Adobe forums, so is there someone out there who can give me the answer or help me?
    If I have to purchase a seperate copy of Acrobat so be it, but since it is supposed to be included with the Master Suite that would be kind of stupid if I have to purchase a copy of Acrobat seperately.
    Thanks to anyone who can point me in the right direction!!!

    This is just getting beyond ridiculous...
    AND I can see from several forum threads I am not alone in this issue.
    Adobe, you absolutely SUCK for making it so difficult to install this software. I am normally a fan of Adobe products, but now that you guys have bought out all your competiton you are getting lazy and stupid.
    This is the most ridiculous crap I've ever seen when trying to install a product I PURCHASED!!!!!!!
    So, after over another week (I have been trying to find a way to install Acrobat with my purchased copy of the Master Suite for MONTHS)...  My IT guy finally gets me the installer DMG for Acrobat and now I cannot install it with my master collection because the serial numbers are not the same?
    I never got a god damn serial number for Acrobat Pro when purchasing the master collection.
    Asking Adobe for help is totally worthless and not even worth taking the time to do so because all they give you is some BS pre-recorded response that doesn't help you with JACK...
    It has been a long time since I've had a problem installing a piece of software I PURCHASED.
    BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    YOU SERIOUSLY SUCK ADOBE ON THIS ONE!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I had installed Adobe CS5 Master Collection on my PC about a year ago, the PC is now dead and i purchased a mac.  i just wanted to know if i can download the Mac version and use that cereal number to activate the it?  and if yes how and where do i go?  wo

    i just wanted to know if i can download the Mac version and use that cereal number to activate it?  and if yes how and where do i go?  would appreciate anyones help.  Cheers Ron

    i just wanted to know if i can download the Mac version and use that cereal number to activate it?
    No.
    Serial numbers are Mac only or Windows only. There is a platform swap process (from Mac to PC etc) but only for CS6.
    As a CS5 owner, your choices are to either pay to upgrade to CS6 for Mac or join the Cloud.

  • My CS5 Master discs are M.I.A, can i download and re-register the product digitally in any way?

    As the topic quite specifically states, i have totally misplaced my CS5 master suite discs, they are still existant however! and whilst i search for them amongst my storage in the shed, i was wondering if i might re-download this software from adobe in any way and just re-register it that way??
    all i seem to find is CS5.5 now, trials and etc, and im not sure that my CS5 key would work on that haha
    any help with this would be greatly appreciated back to the shed for me,
    thanks.

    Have you lost the disc only or the serial number along with it, if the serial number is also lost then contact Adobe so they can take preventive measure to avoid the piracy issue.
    and If only the media to install the software is lost then you can get it from prodesigntools.com

  • How many fonts from Font Folio 11 are in CS5 Master?

    Hi.
    For educational purposes (classes I'm taking).... how many fonts are included in Font Folio 11 that overlap the fonts that ship with CS5 Master Collection?  I see that there are 2300 fonts in Font Folio and some of the names look familiar but there seem to be some fonts that have extra glyph types such as light, medium, condensed, bold, book, black etc.
    Please advise
    Sincerely,
    -markerline

    Here is a link to a page that lists the fonts included with the various CS5 editions, including the Master Collection:
    http://www.adobe.com/type/browser/fontinstall/cs5installedfonts.html. (An  Adobe representative told me that CS5.5 includes exactly the same fonts as CS5.)
    As you can see, only a very small subset of the fonts in Font Folio 11 are included with the CS5 suite.

  • My computer was reformatted. Now I cannot register my CS5 Extended. How can I re-register?

    My computer was reformatted. Now I cannot register my CS5 Extended. How can I re-register?

    As I mentioned in my last response, you appear to have the term "registration" confused with "activation"   Registration is done once for any software product purchase.  Activation can be done as many times as needed, though in the case of Adobe licenses you can only have two machines with activated installations at any given time for any one product.
    I do not see anything in the link you point to that indicates an Adobe policy at all.  What I see in that is an illegal activity whereby someone is showing how to illegally activate an Adobe product.  I am removing the link.

  • How to download CS5 master suite and CS6 photoshop with all of the latest updates?[was:Photoshop]

    Is there a way to download CS5 master suite and CS6 photoshop with all of the latest updates?

    CS5...no; CS6...maybe.  Check ebay.

  • CS5 Master Collection installs Application Folders for unselected apps

    I elected to install only some of the applications from the CS5 Master Collection but the installation created several folders for apps I did not install.
    These folders have the application in them BUT the application will not launch.
    For example, I did NOT install "Premier Pro CS5" but there is a foler in Applications called "Adobe Premier Pro CS5".  In this folder I see "Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.app".  If I click on that I get the message:
    "You can't open the application Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 because it may be damaged or incomplete."
    Is this normal?
    Why would folders and non-functioning apps be installed when they were specifically NOT excluded by me during the install process.
    I'd like to fix this without messing up anything.  There's no "unisntaller" in these situation.
    Thanks!

    I have exactly the same problem and situation with CS5 production premium.
    I reinstalled after PC re-build and it won't update. The Manager actually downloads all the apps (tried several times now and it downloads the 512MB of files) and then says there was an error. If I click on the customer support link it takes me to a page on Adobe about serial number problems : http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/error-serial-number-qualifying-product.html.
    Suggests a serial number issue, but it is correct and the base product from discs installed and registered correctly.
    Come on Adobe is this your way of forcing us to the cloud? How do we update products?

  • Wondering if my computer is ok for CS5 Master collection

    This is my computer info. (whitch I don't know what everything means)  I was wondering if I perched  Adobe Creative Suite CS5 Master Collection, would it run properly on this Computer & if not!! what else would I have to add to this computer to run the CS5 M. C?
    I have been using from 6.0 to CS3  PhotoShop, Preimere Pro, & Encore, for a few years now, & I'd like to get into AF, I don't know much about computers, I just know how to use the three Adobe programs that I have been using.
    I have been watching a lot of tutorials of CS5 & they look awesome!!!
    So if you could let me know What I need to do to my computer so I could run all the CS5 M.C.  programs
    I will take it to my Computer guy & let him add to this computer, But I don't think he knows about all the video stuff, so I would have to let him know what I want & need.

  • Change of mobo for sandy bridge, will it affect software use (CS5 master)

    Hello - new to this as you can tell from my question.
    Just completed my new build, was very pleased with everything - system works a treat and about to purchase and intsall and register cs5 master this w/e
    Realised may need to change mobo in April = advised by intel beacuse of sata2 controller problem with p67 chipset.I intend to replace mobo when corrected versions become available in April.
    Question - my system disk is going to be the c300 ssd 128gb - it will contain - windows 7 ultimate, ms office, and cs5 master. When I change the mobo will my pc still work? Do i have to de register the software when i change mobo? or register it again?  Am I better of waiting til April before I install cs5 (though prefer not to). The components of my build will be the very same ones apart from the defective  mobo
    I heard somewhere that I can legally use the software on 2 pc's though not at the same time. WIll I still be able to install and use it on my laptop if I need to, after I have changed the mobo in April.
    (Also -- does anyone know the answers to the questions if for ms office.)
    Thans for you help. I have not installed cs5 on a new build myself before, so really dont know what to expect after changing mobo
    (My system -2600k, gigabyte p67a ud7, c300 128gb ssd, 2 *1tb spinpoint f3, evga 580, 8gb ripjaws (2*4gb), liteon bd writer, noctua nhd14, antec hcp1200, lian li x900, windows 7 ultimate)

    Well, I finally received my motherboard (Gigabyte P67A-UD7). Looks exactly like the old one, at least on casual inspection. Packaging is identical except for the graphics on the outer box. Only difference inside the box is that the SATA cables are black (first ones were blue). I'd forgotten how pretty these boards are- it was kinda cool to have two in the hand...
    The switch was monkey-simple. I had to do one re-start, and since I added a few HDD's I had to change the boot order. (I know, this was a Very Bad Idea. Rule #3 is Never Upgrade More Than One Thing At A Time. But it was such a great opportunity to run more power cables and work on the cable management that I couldn't resist.)
    Anyways, the software RAIDs were recognized, the drives were there, everything works the way it did and is absolutely fine: it even plays perfectly nicely with a couple of F2s that were a complete nightmare in my older system. 
    In short, I checked the new and old boxes and got all the old packing together;
    -took out the new board and took off the CPU cover;
    -removed the GPU and cables from the old board and labelled them;
    -removed the old board from the case, took off the cooler and cleaned it. Don't forget a bottle of 99% Isopropyl alcohol and a few pieces of gauze to clean the old thermal compound off the CPU and cooler.
    -cleaned the cpu, removed it, put it in the new board, put on paste and reinstalled the cooler;
    -packed up the old board and all accessories;
    -did what i wanted to do in the case, reinstalled the board, hooked it up and reinstalled the video card.
    (I probably missed some vital steps. This is not a guide, just a gentle encouragement to do it!)
    I deactivated CS5 first using the total deactivation method so when I tried to open it I had to re-enter the serial number. Takes 5 seconds if you've already saved it to a text file- and I have.
    I forgot to deactivate Lightroom and it didn't seem to make any difference, but I only have it on this machine. I would recommend deactivating first. Can't hurt and like Harm (and maybe others) said it takes seconds.
    All in all, it was a totally painless experience (as these things go) and a great opportunity to do a few upgrades I'd been putting off.

    1. Has been recommended on these forums.  Good to have  USB3.0.
    2. CPU is affordable and fast, with the ability to  overclock it if I feel the need for a bit more speed in the future.
    3. Would love 12GB, but will start with 6GB and perhaps  add more later.
    4. Started looking at Solid State Drives as I love the  comments about how fast they load programs, etc., however as they are still  really expensive felt that going with a fast standard drive would be best.  As I  plan on having a dual boot system, I would get two of these.  One would have OS,  CS5 and all my other software installed and the other one would have the minimum  for CS5 installed and the OS tweaked for performance with video  editing.
    5. Both seem like great drives.  Anyone any preference?   Would plan on getting two and use one to store video rushes and the other for  previews and the page file.  Would getting a HD with a 6GB/s interface be worth  it?
    6. I want a quiet case and one that's no higher than  45cm.  I already own the Antec Solo and I like the elastic HD mounting.  Anyone  any preference?
    7. Noctua comes recommended on these forums, however am  concerned with it's size.  Love the idea of water cooling an the H50 system make  it easier and less fuss being a closed system.  Final choice must be quiet and  I've read differing reviews on both.
    8. Can't wait to use the MPE, so want a decent card.  Torn  between getting a cheaper card and upgrading later or spending the money now on  a GTX480 and doing the software hack until fully supported.
    9. With a GTX480 would a 750w PSU be enough?
    GRAPHICS CARD
    I've read reports of the GTX480 not being faster than the  2XX version card, however am I not correct in saying that the 2XX cards are no  longer being sold?  Should I be looking for a card from a particular  manufacturer, i.e. Asus, Gainward, Point of View, Gigabyte?  Or even Nvidia  themselves?
    I am worried about the heat generated by the GTX480 and  the associated fan noise to cool it.  Any thoughts?
    Love the water cooling solution, perhaps some day. http://www.guru3d.com/article/geforce-gtx-480-liquid-cooling-danger-den-review/1

    DUAL BOOT
    For my dual boot, has anyone had experience of using a HD caddy like this  one? http://www.ebuyer.com/product/172727
    I read a review which said that there was no real speed  difference as there is no interface card, just a cable to the motherboard. It  would make my dual boot less complicated to set-up as I wouldn't need to use Win  7 to dual boot or use 3rd party software like Acronis OS Selector.  It would  also free up space for a further internal HD.
    PREMIERE OUTPUT TO A HDMI  SCREEN
    I've been going back and forward on the best solution to  get a proper output of my timeline in Premiere to an external monitor.  I was  set to go with the Matrox MX02 Mini, however some here have said they're  unstable (to a degree).  Although with the CS5 drivers not out yet, perhaps it's  too early to say.
    Although none of my video work has been for broadcast (so  far), I see a great benefit from being able to preview my timeline on a TV  screen as opposed to a PC monitor.  I will be running two screens so I need both  outputs from the graphics card.
    I look forward to receiving your collective  wisdom.

    Here are the components I plan to buy this week:

    Plus a couple of PSU to motherboard extension cables and Windows 7 Pro.  It was mentioned by someone that the CPU thermal paste you get with the HN-D14 is fine, so no need to buy anything else.
    One extra fan (NF-S12B) to cool hard drives and the other for somewhere else in the case.  Perhaps I don't need these.
    I presume that I should try and get an OEM CPU as I'll not need the heatsink and fan that'll be in the retail version?
    I'm just waiting for Scan to get the case back in stock.  Should be today.  All priced at Scan, except last three items which are from Overclockers.
    Anyone any final thoughts or tips?
