How to switch licensed for "ADOBE DESIGN STANDARD" from iMac to Macbook Pro?

I am currently licensed for "ADOBE DESIGN STANDARD" on an iMac. I have a new MacBook Pro and want to use that instead of the iMac. Do i need to get a new license key? or ??
I know i can download an "eval" copy on the laptop, but how do i switch license keys? i'm not even sure i still have the (valid) license key for the iMac...can i request another??

As long as you are staying within the same general platform (PC vs Mac) you do not need to change licensing.  You are allowed to have two activated installations with your license, so you should be able to install on the new machine without having to worry about the older one at all (unless you ever want to free up the second activation for yet another machine).  As you mentioned, you can download the trial version and use the serial number from your purchase to activate it to full use.
If you registered your software with Adobe, the serial number should be available via your Adobe account online.  If you didn't register it then you will at least understand why it pays to do so. 
IF you end up needing to resolve any issues with activating the product on the new machine you will need to contact Adobe Support directly.  Here are some links to help make contact:

    Get info then check permissions then add your curent user name (it was probably different on old Mac) and give your username full read/write permissions.

  • What cable do I need for a full migration from a 2011 MacBook Pro to a new current one-wireless migration way too slow.?

    What cable do I need for a full migration from a 2011 MacBook Pro to a new current one-wireless migration way too slow.?

    All you need is an Ethernet cable.
    Just plug it into both machines. Don't bother with a crossover cable, just a plain old Ethernet cable will do. The Ethernet ports on the Macs are smart and will adjust appropriately.

  • Middle East, Arabic, Hebrew language for Adobe Design Standard or Premium?

    Where can I find those? Are there trials for Adobe Design Premium or Standard, any version from CS3 onwards in Middle East, Arabic or Hebrew language?
    Either to buy or to download. If not from Adobe itself, what sites can be trusted?

    how to install software from imac to macbook pro

    Are you using one of the newer iMac's with no DVD drive? If so, you can either get an external CD/DVD drive (any make - doesn't have to be Apple) or, if you have another Mac on the same network that has a CD/DVD drive you may be able to do it by turning on 'DVD or CD Sharing' on that Mac (System Preferences>Sharing). Hopefully you'll see the disk on the Mac without the DVD drive and be able to install from there.

  • Installation error for CS3 Design Standard on iMac running Snow Leopard (10.6.8)

    I had a fully functioning installation of CS3 on my iMac (Intel 2.16 MHz) and had a hard disc crash.
    After replacing the hard disc, I reinstalled from my original discs, but get the following message:
    "Licensing for this product has stopped working. You cannot use this product  at this time. You must repair the problem by uninstalling and then reinstalling this product or contacting your IT administrator or Adobe customer support for help"
    I uninstalled the program (and ran Adobe Cleaner for CS) ... then reinstalled.   Same message.
    I contacted Adobe installation support and was told that this is an old product and they cannot offer support. I find this response unsatisfying at the least.
    I am baffled because these programs had been running very well prior to the crash ... and all other software came back.
    I need this functionality, but cannot afford to upgrade at this time.
    Suggestions?  Thank you.

  • Multiple licenses for Mountain Lion that comes preloaded on MacBook Pro?

    I just received my new macbook pro.  It came installed with Mountain Lion.  Can I use this license to upgrade my other machines (iMac) to Mountain Lion too?  I was told that because it came pre-loaded on my macbook, that I was not permitted to use it on other macs?  Thx!

    No, you can't.

  • How long does it take to transfer files from Windows to Macbook Pro

    Hi guys
    I just got a macbook pro (not the one with retina display)
    I have all of my files on my windows and just started to set up my mac using the windows transfer program, but it is taking a really long time. The estimate time remaining jumps between 30-35 hours. This is over Wi-Fi. I have read that it is faster using an Ethernet cable, I think I have one that is pluged into connecting both computers, but it isn't speeding anything up.
    What should I do? I don't want to leave either computer on for such a long time. (is there anything I should put my Mac on so it doesn't overheat, its currently on a wood table).
    Should I stop it? I dont want to ruin anything on the computer so soon. If so, how do I do it. I had already started to transfer files earlier today but accidently closed the Mac, which stopped the process and couldn't restart it again, so I turned it off since I couldn't find anything on the screen to stop it.
    I have an external harddrive that was connected to my windows, would it be faster to hold the mac's power button, start the startup again and just connect the external harddrive?
    Please help. Thanks in advance.

    Wi-Fi is slowest. Wi-fi must fight interference and other environmental challenges that cables don't have to worry about at all.
    Cabled Ethernet would be much faster. If your Windows computer has Gigabit Ethernet, it could actually be faster than FireWire.

    I would only abort if there is a safe way to (like a visible Cancel button), otherwise you may lose data.
    Connecting the external hard drive to the Mac could work, but if the hard drive is formatted with the NTFS disk format, you must have extra software on your MacBook Pro that can read that. If the drive is formatted as FAT32, it should work since Macs can read (but not write to) that Windows disk format.

  • How do i completely uninstall microsoft office 2011 from my new macbook pro ?

    I've just recently purchased 2011 for my new 15" Macbook pro but was wandering how to uninstall it as I hardly use it and if I do use word processing/spreadsheet/presentation software I'd much rather use iWork and have office 11 on the disk

    Please note that if Office is being removed to fix a problem prior to re-installing a new copy AppCleaner will not do what is needed, it is important to follow Microsoft's directions exactly, AppCleaner does not.
    Carolyn Samit's link is the correct method.

  • How to share files from iMac to MacBook Pro thru USB

    I would like to network my new MacBook pro to my iMac with a USB connection. I want to transfer files from my iMac to the MacBook. I have the cable connected, but don't know how to have the two computers "link".
    Please advise.

    When you log into a Mac, no matter from where, you must log in as a user on that Mac (although you can log in as guest, if the sharing preferences are set correctly).
    So, when you try to connect to one or the other Mac, are you logging in as a user on that Mac? Does that user have access to the files you are trying to share?
    If you have a userA on MacA and userB on MacB, If you try to connect to MacA from B, you must log in using credentials of userA. Then, you'll have access to anything userA has access to.
    You can also create Sharing Only users in the Sharing Preferences when you share out a folder. Just select New Person when you add people to the sharing list. You can then log into that Mac with that username and password and it will give you access to the folders allowed for that user.
