How to install Creative Suite 6 on imac which doesn't have DVD drive?

Hi,
I'm not sure how to install CS 6 (DVD version) on imac which doesn't have DVD drive. Can anyone help me? I will appreciate

Miradouro you can copy the files on a computer which does have an optical drive to a USB drive. You can then install from the USB drive.
Alternately you can download a fresh copy of the installation files at Download CS6 products.

How to install software on an imac that doesn't have DVD player built in?

I just got my daughter an imac G3 running OS 10.4.11. I went to install iwork onto the computer, and it spit the disc out. i then realized the computer does not have a DVD player built in. How do I install newer software? It runs and plays CD fine. Any help?

Since the other Mac is an eMac, it's a FireWire (400) cable, also called 6-pin to 6-pin. OWC has it.

I'm not sure if Radio Shack has it. Look for something like the above.
An eMac may be one of the models where the optical drive is not accessible over FireWire Target Disk Mode. If the hard drive and optical drive are on the same IDE bus, only the one that is set as Master (usually the hard drive) is available to the other Mac.
So give it a try. If it does not work (eMac's optical drive not accessible from the iMac), you will have to reverse the roles of the two Macs. Start up the iMac in FireWire Target Disk Mode. Connect it to the eMac that is started up normally. Set the eMac to start up from the iMac's hard drive in System Preferences +Startup Disk+ pane. If it's Tiger, your eMac should be able to start up from it. Restart. Insert the software disc and let the eMac install the software onto the iMac's hard drive. After installation completes, change the eMac's startup disk setting back, shut down the eMac, disconnect the FireWire cable, and restart the iMac normally.
Note: Unless you purchased the family license for iWork, it should only be installed on one Mac at a time.

Can I upgrade to 10.4 from 10.3.9 in my iMac which doesn't have DVD?

Due to the fact that I can't do a lot of things I want to do with 10.3.9 is it possible to upgrade even though this machine doesn't have DVD? If so, can I do this online?
Thanks.
iMac Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Silly Rabbit
Thanks for answering - yes, I'm sure my iMac doesn't
have DVD.
Things I want to do include upgrading to a newer OS,
being able to see google earth, burn DVDs etc.
You do not need to upgrade to 10.4 in order to use Google Earth as long as you meet the minimum hardware requirements. If you do not meet the minimum hardware requirements, then upgrading to 10.4 will not help; you'll need to buy a new Mac.
The requirements for Google Earth are:
Minimum Configuration:
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.3.9
CPU: G3 500Mhz
System Memory (RAM): 256MB RAM
Hard Disk: 400MB free space
Network Speed: 128 Kbits/sec
Graphics Card: 3D-capable with 16MB of VRAM
Screen: 1024x768, "16-bit High Color" screen
Recommended Configuration:
Operating System: Mac OSX 10.4.4
CPU: G4 1.2Ghz
System Memory (RAM): 512MB RAM
Hard Disk: 2GB free space
Network Speed: 768 Kbits/sec
Graphics Card: 3D-capable with 32MB of VRAM
Screen: 1280x1024, "32-bit True Color" screen
If your Mac does not have a DVD drive, upgrading to 10.4 will not enable you to burn DVDs. You would have to buy a new Mac for that (or maybe an external DVD drive).
I noticed you said that Tiger DVD will end soon
anyway - should I wait for the next new
thing
Silly Rabbit meant that the offer to exchange 10.4 DVDs for CDs will expire. The offer expires December 20,2006.
The next new thing will be 10.5, which is being previewed in August but may not be released for some time, and may not support some older Macs.

How do I use the drive on my older iMac to install a program on my newer iMac which doesn't have a drive?

I think I'd read about how this is done but haven't been able to find the information. My two iMacs are connected through ethernet. I also have a macbook air which has a drive and all three macs are on the same wifi network. Maybe it can be done that way? Seemed like ethernet would be faster though. thanks!

Connect the two Macs together with a Firewire cable. Boot your driverless Mac into Target Disk Mode, Transferring files between two computers using FireWire, and then boot the other Mac normally.
Now you should be able to install software from the optical drive Mac to the other Mac.

How to install creative suite 4 on windows 8.1?

I have a new Windows 8.1 laptop and am trying to install Creative Suite 4 on it. I was able to do this on another laptop with 8.1, but that was over a year ago. When I tried installing to the new computer from the CD, I got a message that "the Installer database is corrupt." I contacted Adobe Support, and per their instructions I downloaded the "ADBESTDSCS4_LS1.7z" and "ADBESTDSCS4_LS1" files from the Download CS4 products page. I clicked the applications file, and it created a "Adobe CS4\Design Premium\Adobe CS4" directory under my desktop. However, when I click the setup file, I get the same message - "the Installer database is corrupt." I contact support again, and they told me that CS4 doesn't work with W8.1 - which is nonsense because it installed just fine on my W8.1 ultrabook. So - what are the steps for installing CS4 on Windows 8.1, and how do I deal with the "installer database is corrupt" issue? Thanks!

I found the solution. I did some research and found references to deleting the caps.db files under older versions of Windows. I did find a caps.db file under C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Backup. I deleted the file, and then right-clicked the setup file and used "Run as Administrator" (didn't do that the first time), Everything installed fine, except for an error message with Adobe Flash CS4. But so far, the programs seem to work fine. BTW, Adobe Reader 11, Photoshop Elements 11, and Premier 11 came preinstalled with my computer), which may have created some conflicts.
For what it's worth, Adobe's own website indicates that there are no known issues with Windows 8.1 for CS4 (http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/windows-8-1-compatability.html).

I purchased creative suite about 3 years ago for my macbook pro and have just bought an iMac and was wondering if and how to install creative suite onto my computer?

I am aware that I could not use both devices at the same time and from what I've read on here, once you've bought creative suite you may install it onto two devices. I'm just wondering how I go about installing onto my iMac, also with consideration that it is a older version of Creative Suite.

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 install creative suite CS6 from a disc

I can't get the program to work. I am using the Adobe Creative Suite Student Edition and I have already registered the product. What do I do next?

We can't know. you have not provided any system info or other useful technical details nor actually explained what problems you have. "It doesn't work" is simply not good enough.

How to install creative suite cs2

I downloaded CS2 Discs 1,2 and 3. How do I install them properly?

I appreciate what you are saying however, I clicked setup on the file
called disc1 and it installed and then ask for disc 2 and would not work
with the file residing on the computer so I burned a disc for each file
that I downloaded CS2 disc1, CS2 disk2 and CS2 disc three. Again when disc1
was finished it asks for disk2. I insert disc two and click OK but it does
not resume installation it just keeps the pop up screen asking for disc2.
My only option on this pop up screen is OK or cancel install. I am
perplexed. The files were downloaded from Adobe via a link emailed to me
from Adobe and it is a series of the three separate files called
CreativeSuiteCS2Disc1.exe and the same for disc2 and then disc3.
Thanks for helping me; I am not inept at loading programs but this time it
is not going as instructed by Adobe download page. Please don't give up on
me as Adobe provides no help in this process as they don't support CS2 any
longer.
There was another file called VCS2.zip so I have downloaded that as
well. Will that help?
