I need help installing CreativeSuite 3.3 on a new computer

I purchased the Adobe Creative Suite 3.3  some time ago and want to install it on a new (to me) MacBook Pro I've just purchased. All 4 disks are still in the box, but I have run into a roadblock. The serial number on the disk case does not work with the individual sofware(s). I'm being asked for "previous version" information I do not have.
It was up and running fine on my previous machine.
Help??
~ Lorraine Ayliffe

Is your copy of CS3.3 a full version or an upgrade from a previous version?
If it's an upgrade, the 3.3 installer will ask you to enter a serial number from an earlier qualifying product for the installation to continue. If one is not provided, then 3.3 will not install.

  • Need help installing Lightroom 5 upgrade on a new computer

    Hi all,
    On Mac #1 I have Lightroom 5, which was upgraded to from Lightroom 4. I have noted down a full v4.x licence key and a v5.x upgrade key, and these worked on Mac #1.
    I now want to install Lightroom 5 on Mac #2. I can install and activate v4 but when I install v5 it doesn't offer me an upgrade activation. The only licence it seems to want is a full v5 one (it doesn't accept my v5 upgrade key).
    How can I get LRv5 installed on the new computer?
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Thanks Kglad, that worked.
    I was downloading the full trial of LRv5, but what I needed to do was go into my account and hit the download button next to the upgrade order in my order history. This downloads a different installer.
    I'm happy now --> :-)

    Hello,
    Thank you for posting in the HP Support Forum.
    Your computer comes with Win 8 pre-installed but one of the steps to install/run Windows 8.1 is having updated drivers for Windows 8.1
    Please, go to Control Panel -> System (or Start -> type winver and open) and verify what is your current version - if it is Windows 8 or 8.1
    Windows 8 is version  6.2.x
    Windows 8.1 is version  6.3.x
    If Windows 8 in place, then , please read this article and enroll in the steps:
    http://www8.hp.com/us/en/pdf/instruct_update_win8.​1_EN_tcm_245_1508074.pdf
    Update to the latest drivers prior and post installation respectively for win 8/8.1 :

    I'm an Adobe CC member and need to install the CC products on a new computer. When I download CreativeCloudInstaller.dmg and I double click to install, it requires my password but it doesn't recognizes it even when I'm logged in. Somebody knows what happens?

  • Need help moving photoshop 7.0.1 to new computer

    I hope everyone is doing well. I also hope someone can help me out. I need to move/load Photoshop 7.0.1 onto a different computer - o/s Windows XP Professional v.2002. We are a small company with no IT department and the original CDs and product keys/proof of purchase are lonnnnnnnnng gone. Upgrading is not an option at this time, the powers that be will most likely tell me to do my photoshop work on the laptop, but I want everything at my fingertips at my desk. Too much to ask? Apparently it is because I cannot figure out how to load onto my desktop.
    I've read, in several places, that Adobe allows the user to download the software to two computers, but I don't know if its ever been loaded elsewhere and when I moved the file from my laptop to our rustic server - didn't work. Then I tried copying everything to a memory stick and moving it to my new computer BUT there is no .exe file when I do this. I can't make it run. And never did I receive an messages that scream - hey you, you can't load this on more than two computers.
    I called Adobe and they informed me that they no longer support this version over the phone and that I should check out the forums. Unfortunately, I cannot find the info I need on the forum. Perhaps I'm using the wrong terminology in my search - I have tried several variations...loading, moving, reinstalling....and come up empty. Actually, come up with lots of stuff (from years ago) that doesn't help. In one post I thought could be the holy grail, there was a link that bottomed out - took me nowhere.
    I don't what else to do, I don't know what the google anymore. I'm hopeful someone has an answer other than an upgrade. Thanks.

    Note that I am assuming you're properly licensed to be able to run the app on your new computer.  I do not propose doing anything illegal.
    With the ollld versions of Photoshop, like the one you have, you can try going through a process like this:
    1.  Copy the entire c:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop 7.0 folder to the new computer.
    2.  Try to run Photoshop on the new computer.
    3.  Note any "missing DLL" message.
    4.  Locate the DLL on the old computer (e.g., in C:\Windows\System32 or wherever), and copy it to the same place on the new computer.
    5.  Repeat steps 2 through 4 until no more "missing DLL" messages present themselves.
    There may be other types of messages you'll see.  They're usually descriptive enough to be able to determine what it's looking for that it does not have.  If you get one you're unsure of how to handle, post it here.

  • Need Help Getting My Office Account On My New Computer

    hey so im trying to put office on my new computer but when I try signing in with my student email or my personal email or my Microsoft account it doesn't work and I don't have the 25 digit code, so I was wondering if there was any other way I could
    get office on my new computer

    Which kind of Office suites are you working with in your old PC? Office 2013 or Office 365?
    For Office 365, check if you are signing in with the right account that you subscribe Office 365.
    Login to your Office 365 account page, make sure you have not used up your 5 times to install and activate Office programs. If you do, deactivate certain Office suites and install in your new computer.
    For Office 2013, a retail copy of Office can only be installed once at a computer. You can transfer your Office to the new machine by contacting Microsoft Customer Service:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/295539/en-us
    To get back your product key, refer to some third-party software such as Product key

  • Need help moving music from iPod nano to new computer

    I had a computer that had all of my music on it, it was a combination of music I purchased from iTunes, purchased from other places, and that had been transferred from my CDs.  That computer died, and the music was lost.  My CDs are in storage and I can't put my hands on them easily.  All of that music was on my iPod Nano, but when I plug it in it only gives me the option to erase and sync, and I don't want to lose what's on my iPod but I would like to add new music that I've added to iTunes on my new computer to the iPod.  Is this even possible?

    it 's possible you just have to change your sync option from automatic to manual
    the way to do this is the do the following
    -open iTunes while ipod is connected
    -if you get the message to erase and sync just click cancel
    -on the left hand side of the iTunes window click on your device in the devices section
    -in the ipod summary page go to the bottom of the page and choose "manually manage music"
    -click apply and now any new music you want to sync you just drag the music from the library section and drop it onto the ipod in the devices section in iTunes
    hope this helps:)
    ps: this is only a temp fix but if you want something more then just a work around just post back

  • Need Help Installing Windows 7 64-bit on new 2010 MBP

    I just bought a new 2010 Macbook Pro and love it, but Windows is giving me headaches.
    I am trying to install Windows 7 Professional x64. I downloaded the installation iso from MSDN, burned it to a disk, and successfully booted from the disk. However, when it starts actual installation, I get this error: "a required CD/DVD device driver is missing". It asks me to find the driver, and won't let me continue with installation. Any ideas?
    Some things on my mind:
    - Maybe I actually need a driver? Where can I find it?
    - Maybe my CD drive is faulty?
    - Can I do a bootable USB drive?

    never mind, my iso file was corrupted

  • Need help Installing Reader 10.1.2 on new MacBook Pro w/Lion

    Hi,
    I have a new 13" MacBook Pro with Lion.  I'm trying to install Reader 10.1.2 and it stalls while "Running Package Scripts".  Any thoughts?
    FYI - I don't know if this is relevant.  I had a PowerPC and Apple moved my data from my old computer.  I just realized that they moved my very old CS2 which I know won't work on my new Mac.  I don't know if that might be causing a conflict.  However, I don't know how to uninstall it.
    Thanks so much for any help!!!
    Best,
    Kim

    Hi Sabian,
    So I followed your instructions.  Below is the log.  As you can see, when I typed the last command, I had permission denied.
    I think it says it's a powerbook g4 because that was my old computer and the Apple store transferred my files.  I have a new MacBook Pro...

  • Switching computers and need to install Photoshop and lightroom on the new computer. I own the products.

    Hello. How can I do this? Do I need to deactivate it on the old machine?

    You are allowed to have two activated installations, so if you prefer you can keep the original installation intact.  If you prefer not to then the minimum you need to do is deactivate it.

  • Need help to complete transfer of library to new computer

    I recently transfered all of my songs, audiobooks, movies etc. etc. from my older computer to a new one using the disk mode feature on my ipod and it worked just like it was supposed to except...
    All of my playlists along with ratings, play counts and last played didn't end up in itunes after that.
    I thought after I synced my ipod, all of those settings would show up in itunes but they don't.
    Does anyone know how to return my itunes and ipod with all of these settings?

    Apparently you can do it the same way...with the .xml files. i just Googled and found this:
    http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20050623140844317
    Hope it helps!!!
    EDIT: There may be an easier way.... look for a file in your old library called iTunes Music Library.xml. There was a reference to this in the post above. AND I've never done this...there may be an easier or bettter way.
