How to install Photoshop CS5 Extended Student and Teacher edition on a MacBook with no CD drive

I just recently purchased a MacBook, making the switch from PC to Mac, and I notice that my copy of PsCS5 Extended Educational edition, which is a CD, won't work on my MacBook because there is no CD drive. I even tried using my product key on a downloadable version of the same software but the best I could find is a non-educational version of the software and my product key won't work on it. How would I go about installing this on my MacBook without purchasing the $200 software again? Thanks in advance!

There isn't much good news to offer.  The first mention below is probably your only shot without purchase, unless you could find someone to transfer licenses with.
You won't be able to install a Windows version on the Mac unless you install some Windows emulation software on the Mac.
You won't be able to activate a Mac version of the software on the machine because your license/serial number is only valid for Windows.
CS5 is too old to qualify for a platform swap and Adobe no longer sells CS5 so you would have to take your chances with a third party vendor if you decided to purchase a Mac version.
Just to clarify, there is no such thing as a student version of the software... the license dictates the status of the software.  So you won't be able to find a student version either

  • Re-installing Photoshop CS5 Extended Student and Teacher Edition (for Mac)?

    How can I download and re-install Photoshop CS5 Extended Student and Teacher Edition (for Mac) for which I have a licence?  I lost the previous version in a disk crash.  I tried downloading the full Photoshop CS5 installer, but I was told I couldn't run the installer because I didn't have permission. 
    Thanks,
    Rodney

    Here is the link for the  CS5 installers: Download CS5 products
    Be sure to right click and run the installer as an administrator if you have trouble. If it still fails, download the installer again.

    Dear ladies and gentlemen,
    I bought Photoshop CS5 Extended Student and Teacher Edition a few years ago. Now I want to upgrade to CS6 Extended. Is there any chance to do this without buying Photoshop CS6 Extended new? I don't want to subscribe to the Creative Cloud. I just want to buy an upgrade. If there is one, please tell me, where I can find it.
    Thanks in Advance.

  • For the Photoshop CS5 Extended Student and Teacher Edition, is it an upgrade or the full package?

    Also, do I just scan in my student ID if I download it and email it? And if so, where to? Also, the download works worldwide right?

    S&T versions are full versions. Eligibility and availability of products vary from region to region. You cannot buy an US S&T version, if you are living in another country, for instance. Refer to the S&T pages for more detailed info.

  • 3D and Repousse capabilities in cs5 extended student and teacher edition?

    Hi, I have cs5 extended student and teacher edition - Windows - there is a top level 3D menu available to me. But when I follow instructions to create 3D text, the 3D options are unavailable to me. Just wondering if anyone out there might be able to help? Thanks.

    I'm trying to learn how to use the Repousse tool / feature (to do extruded text etc0 and have found one of many tutorials that give step by step instructions. So for example, the initial instructions are as follows:-
    Step 1 - Open Photoshop extended and using horizontal type tool, type 3D using Impact font.
    Step 2. Go to    3D  >  Repousse  >  Text Layer
    I get as far as creating text and when I click on the 3D menu, the Repousse option is disabled, as are all the options except the 'auto- hide layers for performance'.
    So not quite sure where to go from here. I've checked and 'OpenGL' is enabled.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS6 Extended Student and Teacher Edition

    My daughter just took a photography class at her H.S. and used Photoshop in that class.  How close would anybody guess that Photoshop CS6 Extended Student and Teacher Edition is to what she used.  I don't know the version of what she used.....

    Hi thritchie,
    You can check the version of Photoshop by launching it, and selecting 'About Photoshop' from the 'Help' Menu at the top.

  • Ordering Adobe Photoshop CS6 Extended Student and Teacher Edition possible? or offline versions in general?

    Hello all,
    I wanted to buy the Adobe Photoshop CS6 Extended Student and Teacher Edition which I would be eligible to buy
    but as it seems, the Paypal option in the adobe store  doesn´t seem to work.
    I already contacted the customer service "Kundendienst" but they told me that they don´t offer paypal - odd because as you can see it is on their own site..?
    Since I don´t own a creditcard nor do I ever want one *, I also asked for a secure and good payment method called "Lastschriftverfahren" so I could easily give adobe  money from my bank.
    that option also isn´t available.
    * http://www.golem.de/news/datenhack-adobe-warnt-deutsche-kunden-vor-kreditkartenmissbrauch- 1311-102806.html
    is there a way for a student to order a full offline version of Photoshop?
    I really don´t want to stand in the rain of that cloud.
    * http://www.golem.de/news/27-stunden-ausfall-adobe-creative-cloud-laesst-anwender-im-regen- stehen-1405-106542.html
    like being forced to stay of photoshop just because a hacker again compromised the adobe servers.
    I would be actually glad  to give money to adobe but what would be a possible way now?
    there are alternatives like Photoline, Corel and so on but I would love to try it with Adobe first.
