I can't install cc onto my new computer, after signing out of my other computers.

I just got a new computer and am unable to download cc onto it. I have signed out of my account on my other two computers and still get an error message.

This isn't an "I told you so" but since I just learned how well it works, I'll pass this on to you.
START using Time Machine to back up...it's the greatest way to move all your old apps to a new / restored hard drive without all the cruft from the old one which probably caused the crash. If you ever crash again, reinstall the OS and then restore from Time Machine which will bring in all your apps and preferences and you will be right as rain in no time.
Sorry to hear you crashed, glad you've gotten a lot of good advice here.

How do I install Lightroom onto my new computer after old computer crashes?

My old computer recently crashed and I just got a new one (MacBook Pro). I had Lightroom 3 on that computer and I need to get it back onto my new computer. I have the original disc, but my new computer doesn't have a disc drive! How can I do this?? I also have the same issue with Photoshop CS4, but I don't have the disc for that. Please tell me this is a possibility without having to re-purchase everything!?

I can save iTunes onto my computer, but when I click run, this is the message that appears. How do I get this thing installed?

I lost my redemption code to install Lion onto my new computer. Is there a way I could get it again? When I go to the "get the update" page, it says that my serial number already has a code. How do I find this code again?!

It is probably broken. You can try restoring it using Recovery Mode, but if that fails its time for a new phone. After all, it is 4 generations out of date. See: Recovery Mode

How do you install CS5 onto a new computer without Time Machine/file transfer

I'm not getting a new computer, but my current one is getting a little old (Macbook Pro V. 10.6.8) and I'm afraid it might crash if I download the newest Maverick system, which is why I want to make absolutely sure I'm able to save and transfer all my old files and CS5 Creative Suite programs if this indeed happens. I don't trust Time Machine to do it; my boss had this happen and Time Machine did not transfer the Adobe programs. I also don't want to rely on Time Machine and any other file transfer (which all new Macs offer) because I've had brand new computers crash because of old corrupt files from my old computer converting over, and the Apple people said it's a bad idea (which would have been nice to know BEFORE the computer crashed and everything. . .) I've been told you can only use the CD to install CS5 onto your computer twice, which I've already done (thanks to my brand new computer crashing once already). So I would like to know how it's possible to install the program onto a new computer should this one crash, without the use of file transfer or Time Machine. I have no interest in upgrading to CC.
Thanks!

Avoid using Time Machine for re-installing Adobe software. It rarely works and usually breaks the activation mechanism.
I've been told you can only use the CD to install CS5 onto your computer twice,
Not quite.
You can install the software as many times as you like but you can only activate the software for use on a maximum of two computers at the same time.
To re-install you will need your CS5 serial number.
Download the installer from Download CS5 products
Install then enter your serial number when prompted.

Re-installing lightroom onto a new computer

Hi
I've just got a new imac and I already have Lightrrom 4 on my old one. I'm sure to most this is a VERY simple question so sorry in adance but believe it or not I cannot find the answer in any forums. How do I reinstall Lightroom onto a new computer?
Can I do this somehow using the serial number? I'm sure the licence allows use on 2 machines so I dont think I have to purchase again.
When I go into order history on my adobe account page, I thought I might be able to download it from there again... but cant see this option.
PLease could any replies be in simple speak and not too technical.
Many thanks

reference to: writing down serial numbers. Expect this from software in the 1980s.
as such, unable to use the software.
Office 365 on the other hand, no problem.
There's a pleasant surprise.
edit2: maybe i can copy it across from my old installation? Surely that is too easy.
Anthony - doing a fresh install and just been gutted by adobe. Time vampire like this is deprecated by me.
I guess I don't understand any of this, it's not even clear to me what your issue is. Please describe the problem more clearly without discussing Time vampires and Office 365.

How can I install Illustrator on a new computer?

I have a creative cloud membership for Illustrator. I have it installed on 2 computers but got a new laptop. I read that it needs to be uninstalled on one of the computers in order to put on a new one. I uninstalled it but get a "sign in failed" message when I try to download on my new computer. It gives me the option to sign out of all other devices, but I want to stay signed in on one of the original installed devices. What do I need to do?

Trying to install Photoshop onto a new computer and receiving an error message

I am trying to install photoshop cs2 onto my new mac and am recieving the error message "You can't open the application monitorAndSublaunch because PowerPC applications are no longer supported" ????

You will have to upgrade, yes, but you have several options:
Buy new full version of Photoshop CS6 (most expensive option). CS2 is too old to qualify for upgrade pricing.
Buy Photoshop Elements 12

Can't install Acrobat 8 on New Computer w/Windows 7 64bit

The install hangs near to completion when tryng to load "Reader for Word.smrd"
It says "Error 1305. Error ready from file C:\Program Files(x86)\Adobe\Acrobata 8.0\PDFMaker\Office\Reader for Word.smrd. Verify that file exists and that you can access it."
Please help if you can. Thanks!

You may be somewhat successful if you update AA8. 64bit systems required at least AA8.2 under XP as I recall. Some folks have been successful with AA8 on Win7, not sure about the 64bit version. However, it is not supported and you will likely run into something along the way that fails. Since PDFMaker is mentioned, that will lilkely not work anyway with a new machine. I am assuming that you probably have OFFICE 2010 with the new system that requires AA X.
