I have CS3 and want to continue using this product with having to do n upgrade. How can I use

I have CS3 and want to continue using this without having to upgrade. I dont want to spend money - I just want to use what I have. Is this possible/

Just continue using it if that is your choice - there is nothing forcing you to buy anything newer.  You might need to continue using the same computer as well.  Upgrading your computer could lead to an incompatibility between the software and the new system.
Just so you know, CS3 is not eligible for an upgrade any longer as of January 1.

    First off you need to know the model identifier of the machine, not all Mac's can be reverted to Snow Leopard and not all Mac's can use the 10.6.3 Retail disk!
    To find the model identifier, boot the machine up and hold the command key and the spacebar, Spotlight appears at the top right corner and type in System Profiler and press Enter/Return.
    The model identifier should be something like "MacBook Pro 9,2" or something of that nature.
    You also can hold D while the computer is booting on/near a Internet connection for a long time and this loads Hardware Test, which one of the panes will give the required information.
    Next you download MacTracker here and look up your machine and it's original operating system.
    (Don't click the AppStore version obviously)
    http://mactracker.ca/
    You may have to right or control click on the program to bypass Apple's Gatekeeper and run the program.
    If you have the model identifier and the machine won't boot, then just ask here and we can tell you the information
    Now all Intel Mac's issued before July 2011 can install Snow Leopard, but the Mac's released after July 2011 came with OS X 10.7 Lion and the firmware won't boot off the Snow Leopard disk. (however 10.6 can be shoehorned on using Firewire Target Disk Mode and another Mac for some models after July 2011)
    Also the 10.6.3 Snow Leopard Retail Disk sold at Apple only works on Mac's that came with 10.4-10.6.2 from the factory.
    Any Mac's that originally came with 10.6.3-10.6.8 from the factory need model specific disks from Apple directly, not sold at their online store, you will have to call them with your Mac's serial number and order these disks.
    If you get the right disk and have the right machine, then you should be able to insert the disk and hold c down or the option/alt key and boot from the 10.6 disk.
    Follow these directions and make sure to erase the ENTIRE DRIVE first in Disk Utility or you will have issues later trying to fix it from the disk.

  • I currently have Photoshop CS5.1 on my Mac and want to transfer it to my newly purchased Mac Book Air. How can I do that?

    I currently have Photoshop CS5.1 on my Mac and want to transfer it to my newly purchased Mac Book Air. How can I do that?

    Just install it like you did the first time (do not try to transfer it from the old machine in any way) - you can download thru your account if you purchased it as a download originally - otherwise there is a link for downloading below. Your serial number should be available thru your Adobe account online if your registered the software previously.

    If you like you can leave it on the first machine as a backup because you are allowed to have two activated installations.  If you wish to remove it from the older machine you should deactivate it first (open an application and choose Help -> Deactivate).

  • HT4743 I just purchased an iTunes TV show and it successfully downloaded. It is now saying that I do not have the proper version of QuickTime on this version of iTunes (10.6.3). How can a show I purchased be incompatible with the latest version of iTunes?

    I just purchased an iTunes TV show and it successfully downloaded. It is now saying that I do not have the proper version of QuickTime on this version of iTunes (10.6.3).
    How can a show I purchased be incompatible with the latest version of iTunes?
    I want a refund, but I can't even figure out how to request one through support. Super frustrated and long time Apple customer.

    After a day of trying, both iTunes and my Apple TV are telling me that the episodes of Scooby Doo I purchased are incompatible due to QuickTime. I still don't understand how I purchased something from iTunes that doesn't work with iTunes.
    the exact error I receive when I try to play an episode is the following:
    "This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes."
    Any advice would be great!

  • Can someone help me please!!!! I have an iphone4 from japan then i brought it back here in Philippines.. How can i use this here??? Please help me.. Thanks a lot.

    My iOs is still 4.1 ... I didnt update it yet just to be safe..  Ive heard a lot of people here in the Phil. Who's having a problem after updating it ios 5 and about the gevey sim

    The Gevey SIM itself is not illegal. There is wild speculation of the part of many that there is a step involved in using the G SIM which may be illegal, but not necessarily in all countries of the world. The important thing here involves the Apple Support Communities and that is that this is another form of jailbreaking and jailbreaking is not supported by Apple and so is a topic that we are not allowed to discuss in this forum.
    If your iPhone is locked to a Japanese carrier, we cannot, with any method, help you use that iPhone with another carrier in the Philippines.

  • I have error facing an error continuously on photoshop - Adobe Photoshop cc 2014 has stopped working.how can i resolve it?

    how can i resolve it?

    Maybe you could tell us what you already have tried and when this error shows up.
    Besides that message, do you get any other information about the crash in your screen?
    I guess you're on Windows, don't believe that Apple computers show this type of error message.
    Running as administrator, or other compatibility settings could solve your problem.

    Try deleting the problematic tune (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
