I have no DVD drive on my computer.  Where are the downloads located?

I received discs for Photoshop elements & premier elements 12 with my new camera but my computer doesn't have a DVD drive.  I assumed it would be no big deal to download them from the Internet...wrong.  .I have serial numbers to install Photoshop but I cannot find where the downloads are located.  I find plenty of "trial" downloads but I should not have to pay for a product I already have.  Can anyone help me out there in cyber-land?  Adobe has no information on the website and I am unable to locate a live person.  So, that is you!  Hey live person, can you help this little ol lady?  Thank you so much!!

I am okay with a computer but not a geek that is for sure!
I downloaded the assistant and nothing happened.  I went to the site you so kindly suggested and started the download, and when I tried to apply it to the computer it said elements were missing.  I deleted the download and then started again.  Right now it is once again downloading the assistant. 
Arggggggh!

Thanks for the update.
What was the problem...the length of time for the download or just getting any download at all?
If necessary, I will go step by step with you through the tryout download from Adobe. But, the purchase of a USB external DVD/CD burner for your computer is a good idea and investment.
If you do the shopping for this, check out how many connections are necessary for it to the computer....none, one, or two...check out the length of the USB cable.
Please let us know how we can help. But, your mentioned place of purchase has a squad who should be able to help your with the purchase.
Thanks. Please update us on your progress when your schedule permits.

  • My MacBook Pro has a 500GB Hard Drive (HD), but when I search my capacity I says that I only have 384.99 GBs of capacity. Where are the other 100GBs?

    My Mac has been a little slow, so I figured that I should make sure that I have enough storage capacity on my Hard Drive (HD). In doing so I realized that my HD is missing 100GB of space capacity. I thought that my HD was supposed to at least 499.25 of available space.
    When using "About this Mac", it clearly shows that I only have 384.99 GB of capacity.
    Where are the other 100 GB? I should mention that I recently deleted a partition for that same amount of storage. That has to have something to do with this? Can you help me?

  • New imac doesnt have a dvd drive, how do i ...?

    so, since the new imac doesnt have a dvd drive what is an alternative way to watch mymovvies and download cd's ? i think apple messed up removing the dvd drive and people that have/will buy thew imac deserve a refund or something to connect to the imac that reads discs or something.

    If you bought an AV on DVD, then it's you who failed to buy the correct product.  You can buy lots of different AVs through download.
    If you needed a computer with a built in DVD drive, then it's you who failed to buy the correct product for your needs, if you weren't willing to buy the seperate DVD drive.
    Keep in mind, you also never payed for a DVD drive in the first place, since the computer's price would have been adjusted accordingly.  So you don't get something for free that you never payed for in the first place.

  • HT1539 How do you redeem Digital Downloads if your device does not have a DVD drive?

    How do you redeem Digital Downloads if your device does not have a DVD drive?

    If the redemption comes only on a disk, then you will have to get access to a DVD drive, either by borrowing or purchasing one, or by using the Remote Disk feature if you have another computer available that does have a DVD drive.
    Regards.

  • Installing with DVD, even though I don't have a DVD drive?

    Is there a way to work-around the fact that I don't have a DVD drive on my G4 to install Tiger from the DVD that I have on hand?
    Just started a new job, and they have the Tiger DVD disks, but there's only one mac in the whole office that has a dvd drive. Yet, there are several with Tiger installed.
    How did they do it? No one who was here during the installation is here now ... go figure.

    Yeah, sorry, I didn't mean to sound as if that were critical. I bet they have sound or recording software/hardware as the main concern like you do. A local user here has had problems moving some of his stuff (and recording from vinyl) with his OS X installations.
    I think I may have been confused with your earlier post about the drive. There should be no problem going directly to 10.4 at all. I thought that you wanted to install an OS onto the DVD drive and it needed to be 10.2 or above. This looks like a balancing act: you need a suitable OS on the drive to put the OS on the computer; but you need a drive on the computer to put the OS on the drive.
    A solution might be to find another computer with a DVD drive; or to go up in steps: Jaguar or Panther come on CDROM disks so could be installed on the computer then on the drive (or directly onto the drive without installing on the computer).
    There was an exchange program to get Tiger on CDROMs but I am not sure if that is finished (or if there are any in Aus.).

  • I have Logic on my iMac and want to install it on my new mac book but my mac book doesn't have a dvd drive. I tried to download the upgrade but it looks for an older version. How do I get Logic on the Mac book ?

    I would like to install logic on my new mac book but there is no dvd drive. I tried to downlaod the upgrade but that didn't work. How do I download it for the first time?
    Thanks!

    You can only use the App Store version to reinstall on your new Mac if you bought Logic via the App Store in the first place.... and then it will appear under the Purchases tab in the Mac App Store App so long as you are signed in using the same Apple ID you used to purchase Logic via the App store in the first place.
    If you bought the DVD edition of Logic Studio then you must initially install using those original DVDs to begin with and then update to the latest version of your version of Logic via software updates.
    No DVD drive? Buy an external one.. Amazon do a very cheap basic one that works well..
    or...
    Use Remote Disk if you still have your older Mac which has a built in DVD drive...
