I need to reinstall cs5

i need to reinstall cs5. I had to uninstall it because it was quitting every time I tried to save any documents. (regardless of size) How do I reinstall without paying for it again? I have my serial numbers and whatnot....

Hi,
I am using osx yosemite 10.10.2
I have 16 g of memory.
I have 258G free out of 500G total of storage.
I just got this computer in December. I have been using CS5 with no problems at all. Yesterday, I tried to save a very simple file to the desktop and illustrator crashed. It is happening any time I try to save the file to anyplace other than the one file that comes up when I use the "save as" or "save" command. Its happening no matter how small the file is.
I have already removed almost everything from my desktop as one person suggested. I have uninstalled illustrator, run the cleaner program, restarted and re installed illustrator. I have updated illustrator to the current version.
I am at a loss.
Do you know why it would be crashing?
Please help.
Thank you.

  • Need to reinstall CS5.5 but do not have the disk - download is just not completing. I do have the serial number but have never got that far!

    I need to reinstall CS5.5 but no longer have the install disc. I have tried downloading this directly from Adobe and have used the cleaner tool the download is just not completing. I live on an island so internet speeds can be variable. Can't get a direct contact with Adobe support!!!! Can anyone help?

    Here is an alternative link for downloading directly...  Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site and have cookies enabled in your browser or else the download will not work properly.

  • I'm reinstalling Windows 7. What information will I need to reinstall CS5?

    Hello,
    I'm planning to wipe my hard drive and reinstall Windows 7. What will I need to reinstall CS5? Do I just need my serial number? How can I find that? Do I need to contact customer support if I can't find it?
    Thanks

    You should deactivate your CS5 suite before wiping anything so that you have your activation available.  This is usually done by opening one of the applications and choosing Help -> Deactivate.
    You will need your serial number.  If you own the disc then it should be located on the disc cover.  If you registered the software then it should be available thru your Adobe account online.  If neither of these work out, then you would have to contact Adobe support directly and provide sufficient evidence that you own the application to see if they will provide you with the serial number.
    If you purchased an upgrade version of CS5 you will also need to have the name and serial number for the qualifying older version that you upgraded from.

    Beamer96 if the software has been registered then it will be under your account at http://www.adobe.com/.  You can find more details at Find your serial number quickly - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html.

  • I wiped my mac and need to reinstall CS5

    I have already registered Adobe CS5. I wiped my mac and need to reinstall CS5 how do I do this off line. I have the disk but was told I could just download direct from Adobe because I've already registered my product.

    Moving this discussion to the Downloading, Installing, Setting Up forum.
    Spermium what are you trying to do online or offline exactly?  If you are attempting to reinstall the software after wiping your Mac then you can download a fresh copy of the installation files from Download CS5 products.

    Did you previously purchase the download option?  If so then you can follow the directions listed at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1006208?tstart=0 to download the software.
    If you did not purchase the download option but have lost your installation media then please follow the steps listed at http://prodesigntools.com/all-adobe-cs5-direct-download-links.html to obtain the installation files.

  • I need to reinstall CS5, but it required CS2 to be preinstalled, it is no longer supported.

    I had to have my hard drive formatted and reset.  I lost my programs and need to reinstall CS5.

    That is not a requirement. If your CS5 is an Upgrade all you need to install and activate it is your CS5 serial and the serial number of you product that your upgrading. That product does not have to be installed.  If It is installed  you would not need to enter its serial when you install CS5 and activate it.  If it is not installed you need to enter its serial during the install and activation of CS5.

  • I need help reinstalling CS5

    Hello,
    My computer recently got a virus and I had to wipe it and reinstall Windows. I need to reinstall my CS5 now, but when I punch in the serial it gives me an error and says the serial has already been used (yeah, by me). It is the same computer I installed it on the first time. What do I do?
    Thanks,
    Christina Wood

    I had a similar problem, and I called Adobe Technical Support.  They were able to disable the serial number so I could re-use it.

  • Need to reinstall CS5, lost the software but have serial#

    I was having problems with my product, I think from lare file sizes/lack of memory, and uninstalled the software with the intentions of reinstalling. After uninstalling, however, I discovered that I had lost the disc with the programs, but I have the serial number and all the information. I need a way to download CS5 (NOT CS5.5). I was wondering if this is possible, as I have already paid for the student edition for $400, and I do not want to have to repurchase it. Please help!
    Thanks

    Try this.

  • Need to reinstall CS5 Design Premium.

    It appears that getting quick direct help is not as simple as it was in the past... not just with Adobe. I have encountered a system problem with Mac OS10.7.5, which requires a reinstall of my Adobe CS5 Design Premium. Since I'm "on the road" I do not have my install disks with me and will not for just over a month. What is a viable solution?

  • Need to reinstall CS5 Extended on new Win8 laptop.

    Originally purchased CS5 Extended license for a Macbook, however it recently met its demise.  Would like to reinstall it on a Windows 8.1 laptop.  I have a valid license key from Adobe. I thought I found an Adobe site with CS5 Extended install files but it's not accepting my key. Thanks!

    Serial numbers are specific to the operating system: Windows only or Mac only.
    There is a platform swap process to swap Mac serial numbers for Windows and vice versa. However it only applies to CS6.
    Order product | Platform, language swap
    That leaves you with two choices:
    Pay to upgrade to CS6 for Windows
    Creative Suite 6
    Join the Cloud
