How to install Design standard CS5.5 without a disc?

So I just got off a chat with customer support and they told me I have to pay to upgrade because I don't have the disc anymore, great right I paid a few hundred dollars for a program right before cs6 came out and nope can't download it anymore.
So I'm told to go here if I want to install it
http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs5-5-direct-download-links.html
Which I was told is a direct download but it isn't I have to download a trial version, then load up the cs5.5 then contact support again to have them remove my broken computers from the activation list or whatever they call it.
Or I can pay more money for something I don't need.
In all honesty it seems more beneficial to just download a cracked copy then have to jump threw all these hoops to get something I paid for, which to people saying I won't get support with a cracked/hacked copy customer support said they don't give support for older versions.

While this was helpful, I was able to download / instal cs6 without issue in less than 5 minutes (including download time).
I asked support chat to free up the activations but was responded with "this chat session has been closed".
I'm marking your post as correct as it is correct, but it is not the most streamlighted / customer friendly way.
I got 20mb's into the cs5.5(standard) download while I fully installed cs6(master collection) by clicking 3 buttons, kind of stupid if you ask me.
I know that software eventually is outdated, but for a big company like adobe to be able to have a direct download / instal on their website for a product a customer paid for should be a no brainer.
I purchased this product 1 month before cs6 came out, so the month after I purchased it I basically lost the ability for direct download / apparently adobe support besides the forums (this is quoted from the live chat).

  • Installing Design Standard CS3 without Flash Player 9...?

    Hi,
    I hope someone can advise me here?
    I would love to be able to install Design Standard CS3 without the Flash Player 9 Plugins... Both Active X and Plug-In versions.
    Is this at all possible?
    I have scanned through the various XML files on the install DVD and have seen entries for both Active X and Plugin versions of Flash Player 9 in the setup.xml file.
    Removing these lines from the XML doesn't make any difference and Flash Player is still installed as part of the CS3 install.
    I have also tried renaming the folders containing the Flash MSI's and the installation fails at the 'Shared Components' stage.
    I'm obviously missing a trick here but hoped someone might know the answer?
    Many thanks,
    Gav

    I'm sure there are deployment instructions and tools for CS3 somewhere in the Dev Center. If this is only for your own perusal, then don't bother. any isntall of a newer version of Flash Player will superceed the old one.

  • Do i need extra RAM to install adobe design standard cs5.5

    I have an iMac bought mid 2010 snow leopard 10.6.8. I am looking to buy adobe creative suite design standard CS5.5, will I need extra RAM?
    I hope not!
    I only really need photoshop, illustrator and indesign, so my other question is can I just install these from the package?
    Please help anyone!
    Thanks.

    No, I am saying the three programs that you want to use in the suite, if you are planning on using all three programs (at the same time) then it is possible your system could slow down, then a RAM upgrade will help.  Give it a try it may work out okay. 
    Yes, I know how to backup separate things on to another external hard drive.  Just connect the hard drive make sure it is formatted for use as a Mac hard drive. Open disk utility and click on the hard drive at the bottom of the window it will show you the partition map scheme, it should be GUID Partition Table.  If not then you should format the hard drive but clicking the erase tab and the selecting Mac OS Extended (journaled) from the format drop down box.  If you are going to use the drive to transfer files from Mac to PC then you should select MS-DOS (FAT) the only problem with this format you will not be able to copy file larger then 4GB.  Then just open the find and drag and drop folders and files to the external hard drive.

    Hello
    Recently, I asked about the possibility to swap from windows to mac with Adobe Design Standard CS5.5. In response, I was directed to the help page and i know that it is possible. But today I see that the help page is out of date.
    How cann I now swap platforms for Adobe Design Standard CS5.5? Do I realy need to buy CS6? Or afer dowloading the mac version of CS5.5 I get the key. And if I realy need upgreade the CS5.5 cann I use the Mac version of CS6 for the dowloaded mac version of CS5.5? Is it possible?

    Thanks !
    I didn't know that I cann buy CS6 Mac upgrade in Adobe Store.
    So I have only to buy the CS6 Mac versions and upgrade CS5.5 Win to CS6 Mac?
    How does look the procedure?
    Do I need to install first the CS5.5 Mac on my Macbook and then upgrade it or is it not necessary?
    Thanks

  • Installing Adobe Design Standard CS5.5

    Hi everyone,
    I would like to install Adobe Design Standard CS5.5 on my home computer.  I am trying to find a link to download the software but all the links I have found so far do not work.  Can some one point to a site where I can download the software?
    Thanks
    Karim

    if you follow all 7 steps, you can download a trial via one of the links on this page using a browser that accepts cookies:  http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs5-5-direct-download-links.html
    and activate with your serial number.
    if you have a download problem (eg, you see an error page or you are offered an incorrect version), you probably didn't follow all 7 steps.  typically, failure to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 is the problem, but your browser must also allow cookies so that (a restrictive browser setting) is another potential source of problems.

    The only way to get 10.5 is to purchase it on CD. Such as http://www.amazon.com/Mac-OS-Leopard-10-5-10-51/dp/B0012RAVRC where is being sold for $179.99.
    If your optical drive is broken, you will either need to replace it or get an external. There is no other way.
    Why do wish to upgrade? As you can see it is going to be expensive, probably more the Mac is worth.

  • How to install lexmark printer x1195 without disc

    how to install lexmark printer x1195 without disc

    I checked their site and it looks like Lexmark does not have Mac drivers for that printer for anything Mac OS newer than 10.3. However. if you Google Lexmark x1195 Mac driver, there are some third-party sites claiming to have solutions for Mac and Lion.
    In my experience, Lexmark has been hit or miss with Mac support. Some models work with Macs--some don't.  If you go shopping for another printer, you might wish to steer away from them.
