How to install previously purchased CS5 products on a MacBook Pro w/out a CD drive?

I recently purchased a MacBook Pro with retina display that does not have a CD drive. I own the Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 & Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended in CD form. Since the new MacBook Pro does not have a CD drive how would I install my previously purchased programs? Is there a download link I can have to download the software then use my serial numbers?

Hi Jbenesole225,
Please find the direct link to install CS5: http://prodesigntools.com/all-adobe-cs5-direct-download-links.html .
Kindly follow the very important instructions before download.
Regards,
Romit Sinha

  • Installing previously purchased boxed Aperture on new MacBook Pro.

    My old Mac Pro has kicked the bucket so I have purchased a new MacBook Pro with no CD/DVD drive. My past purchases of Aperture were in the form of Aperture 2 and the upgrade to Aperture 3, both in box form. The only place that I can find a download of an installation copy of Apeture is at the App Store but then I'd have to repurchase it.
    I called Apple but the support people just sent me a form to fax proof of purchase for a serial replacement. I'm not sure that's what I need.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Julianne

    Julianne, the last Aperture 3 installer (the Trial installer) is no longer available for download, sorry.
    You need to find a way to read your installer CD/DVD. Can anybody, who owns a Mac with a CD/DVD drive help you to burn a disk image of your Aperture 3 installer DVD to a thumbs drive? Or could you borrow an external DC/DVD drive? Then you could run the Aperture installer from that disk image and immediately upgrade to Aperture 3.4.5 by downloading the 3.4.5 upgrade from Apple's support page.
    See: Aperture 3.4.5
    Then launch the updated version and enter your serial numbers for Aperture 2 und 3.
    After that, you should be able to update to Aperture 3.5 from the App Store.
    If you cannot copy your installer CD/DVD to a thumbsdrive, try to restore Aperture from your backup. How did you migrate the data from your old mac? Did you run Migration Assistant, using a Time Machine backup?
    To restore Aperture from your backup, copy the Aperture application to your Applications folder. Also you need to migrate the folders
    /Library/Application Support/Aperture/  from your old Macintosh HD and
    ~//Library/Application Support/Aperture/ from your Home folder.
    But running the installer would be much preferable.

  • Does anyone know how to install Windows 8 on a late 2008 Macbook Pro without a previous copy of Windows 7?

    So, I'm trying to do a direct install of Windows 8 on my old Macbook Pro, but my machine isn't officially supported for Windows 8; I get an error message every time I try to use boot camp. I previously had Windows 8 running, but that was because I had upgraded it from Windows 7. Later on I ran into problems because I couldn't update to Windows 8.1 so I ended up deciding to just erase the partition and start over. Since then, unfortunately, I've lost the Windows 7 install disc I used and now it turns out Boot Camp won't help me do the install. Is there a way of manually installing Windows 8? Without the help of Boot Camp? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

  • How to install aperture 2 (CD Version) on new Macbook Pro Retina

    Hello,
    Just purchased a new MacBook Pro Retina. I wanted to install aperture but all I have is the V.2 CD. How do I go about this?
    Thanks!

    Just in case you actually already bought an Aperture 3 upgrade online and have a serial number, but did not keep the installer; you can download an Aperture 3 Trial here and unlock it with your serial number:

  • How to install Google's chrome browser safely on MacBook Pro-retina?

    Hello, I've arrived to a crossway which I need (don't want to) install Google's chrome browser or Firefox on my MacBook Pro.
    Yes, I don't want to, I hate it running on a Mac.
    I know it's the best browsing experience in a 'Chromebook', but in "Rome be a roman",
    After using this amount of money to buy the finest MacBook Pro out there, from some reasons,
    I don't want to install it. I want Safari to be able to run every site, even the main site of my university.
    That's what I expect from Apple.inc. that everything will work!
    I mean, how Chrome and Firefox and even Microsoft's IE, supporting and running those uni. sites, and Safari - DOES NOT ?
    (In case that you want to know about which sites I'm brabbling about,
    here is one for example: http://new.huji.ac.il/en there are section that just don't work via safari.)
    In addition,
    I'd like to know, since I didn't find a good solution, what are the right ways to install Chrome on a MacBook Pro-R,
    and to control all the files (EVERYTHING) that are related to it,  so I'd know where to find them after I use it. (additional same information for using firefox the same way will be more than welcome).
    Thank you,
    Jacob.

  • How to install Photoshop CS3 disc on a Retina MacBook Pro?

    Just bought a new Retina Macbook pro and trying to install CS3... the program from my old Macbook would not work when moved to the new one. I have the original disc but this will not work on new Macbooks without a drive.
    Anyone any ideas?

    Feel free to contact support, but they'll only give you the finger, metaphorically. There is no support for old versions beyond sorting out your activation. And you get what was to be expected. All Adobe apps must be properly installed. Copying the installer files to a USB stick will work just fine. If for soem reason that's not possible, download using this method:
    Direct Download Links for Adobe Software
    You'll still run into trouble, though. CS3 was never tested on contemporary versions of OSX nor will it deal properly with Retina displays. As a minor, you will have to enable the half-res option in your display prefs during install and possibly usage of the program...

  • How do I transfer my data to my new macbook pro using an external hard drive?

    I've already set up my new MacBook Pro is my issue. It asked me if I'd like to "Migrate" my stuff or use an external hard drive etc but at the time I didn't transfer my data from my old MacBook yet. I was going to manually do it later as I had to wait for my External hard drive to back my old Mac up. Now it's that time and I have no idea how to do it. I believe I've researched best of my ability.
    I feel like I'm asking a pretty dumb question. If I were to just drag all my programs out like my Adobe Suite on to my new macbook pro would that work? I feel like that's just too easy and incorrect. Please and thank you.

    The Adobe suite can be downloaded free, you dont have to copy it at all, under standard CS6 Adobe rules, if you own the suite, you get 2 computers "activated at any one time"  Make sure, if youre not using the older computer, you deactivate the software under the HELP menu in Adobe.
    format the new drive in disk utility ......APPLICATIONS.....UTILITIES.....DISK UTILITIES.......select the external drive and format (if its new and empty!!!) under the ERASE button with Mac OSX extended journaled
    copy all your important stuff from older computer , pics, files, documents, personal anything.
    most of you apps, i ASSUME you bought in the (other than Adobe software, or Office suite, etc etc,..... obviously) in the MAC APP store, so you can reload them on the new computer without copying them , makes things very easy......just open APP STORE, and download what you already bought.
    really the only important things , is copy all important work files, documents, pictures, personal ABC...XYZ......  obviously.
    the migration is about emails, contacts, etc etc etc, also data, just because you passed it by at the time doesnt mean you still cant do it,    go to the SEARCH at menu at top and type in MIGRATION ASSISTANT  to do it again , since you passed it by at first .
    the only thing you NEED / SHOULD copy is all your personal stuff........Applications need to be reinstall from either ONLINE download,.......or from the MAC APP STORE,........  you cant just copy the apps over (in most cases) and toss them onto the new computer
    Nahh, there are no dumb questions, just dumb mistakes because you DIDNT ask any questions, and we all make those here and there. 

  • How to install previously purchased iWork into a new computer?
