Install 'old lady' CS5 Win on my Mac?

Hej,
I would like to use my old CS5 for Win - without having upgraded to CC - on my MacBook.
Installing seemed not to work (or did I make mistakes?).
Is that possible? What special tricks should be done?
Best regards,
Dirk

that's not going to work.
windows applications (adobe or otherwise) can't be installed on macs. you could use dual os software but in my experience there's a significant performance issue when doing that.

Can I install Adobe InDesign CS5 on a Power Mac G5 running OS 10.5.8?

Can I install Adobe InDesign CS5 on a Power Mac G5 running OS 10.5.8?

first thing to try is reset InDesign:
delete the preference file located here:
system > users > home folder > library > peferences > com.adobe.InDesign.plist
then repair the hard drive:
shut down the Mac
restart - then press shift key immediately after the chime
keep pressing shift untill the Apple logo appears
let the Mac boot to the desktop - it will take longer to boot as it is repairing the hard drive
when desktop appears, restart the Mac normally

How to re-install Photoshop 6.0 Win on a Mac? [was: download 6.0]

I have swapped from a PC to a MAC and can't find 6.0 to download. Old copy is on disc and MAC doesn't have a CD Rom - any ideas?

I presume you mean Photoshop CS6? (15 year old Photoshop 6.0 - shipped in 2000 - will not run on modern Macs).
The installer can be downloaded from Download CS6 products
However you cannot use a Windows serial number to license the software on a Mac.
You must apply to Adobe for a Mac serial number (known as a Platform Swap)
Order product | Platform, language swap
So, you can install the Mac version and use it in Trial mode for free for up to 30 days. When you receive your Mac serial number, you can then enter it on your Mac to license the software.

Download and install old versions of imovie onto my mac

Hi, I have imovie 8 on my mac and find it hard to use and need to do alot of video editing very quickly. Could someone direct to to how to download imovie 4 or imovie 5 onto my mac. thanks. Sinead

You can get iMovie 06 in a number of ways. You cannot download it _FROM APPLE_ any longer (it was free for a time). You can also find iMovie 06 on the iLife 06 install disc.
You can buy iLife 06 on Amazon or eBay (it will cost more than iLife 11). BUT WELL WORTH EVERY PENNY!

Photoshop CS5 (Win) crossgrade to CS6 (Mac)

Hello there,
I've done a bit of research here and elsewhere and I haven't found a complete and current answer. I currently have PS CS5 on my Windows PC (educational discount) and just pulled the trigger on a Mac desktop and I'm planning to switch platforms over time if this works out for me.
It's my undestanding that I should be able to crossgrade from CS5 Win to CS6 Mac. But I'm not quite sure how to do that and how much that will be. Also I'm unclear if that option went away now that things have moved to CC - which I will absolutely and 100% never ever sign up for independent of how cheap they'll make it.
So, can I still do the crossgrade to CS6? And if so how?

You don't actually need to contact Adobe or sign forms to purchase a crossgrade any more. It's all done online.

To install, just install the CS6 Upgrade (Full version not required) and enter your CS6 (Mac retail) upgrade serial number then enter your CS5 (Win Edu) full serial number when prompted for the serial from an earlier qualfying version.

CS5 for Windows can only be installed on Windows operating system.
You would need to purchase CS5 for Mac OS.
Given that CS5 is now 4 versions back, it's unlikely you'll find a copy.
You could get DW CC from the Creative Cloud which supports both Win/Mac platforms.

"Non-system disk Press any key to reboot"- Trying to install Win 7 on Mac Mini

Hello. I'm trying to install Windows 7 on a new-model Mac Mini ('Late 2012'), which I just bought from Apple. [Specs: 1 TB Fusion drive, 2.6 GHz intel Core i7, 16 GB RAM, OS X Mavericks (latest), Graphics: Intel HD graphics 4000, Screen: LG Flatron 24"].
After following instructions on Bootcamp, I tried installing it through my external USB Apple Superdrive (DVD), but for some reason as soon as the system finishes getting things ready and reboots to begin installing Windows 7, I get a black screen with an error message as follows: "No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key". Pressing the keys on my keyboard does nothing (even though it's a wired model, not a wireless one.) I'm forced to do a hard shutdown using the power button and hold down the Option key in order to get the system to show the Mac HD where OS X is. It also shows the Windows DVD as another option, but when I select it and the system boots, I just get the same error message again. So I go back to a hard shutdown and reboot to go into OS X again.
Not sure what to do, I did some online research and in one post in the Frequently Asked Questions for Bootcamp, it says for installing Win 7 and Win 8, the computer won't work with external USB drives (*totally nuts in my opinion - Apple has to fix this stuff if they want to entice Windows users into buying their sleek, quiet hardware). Instead, the post recommends creating a Windows 7 ISO file from my Windows 7 DVD and putting it on a USB thumbdrive that Bootcamp is going to use to put all the Apple/Windows drivers on for the installation process. I'm also told I have to unplug my Superdrive (no explanation given for why). So I do all this and get Bootcamp Assistant running again. Unfortunately, as soon as the system reboots after going through all the usual preparation steps, I get another black screen with a new error message: "Non-system disk Press any key to reboot". So I'm at a loss for what to do next.
(I've also have an iMac that I bought more than a year ago that I also put Windows 7 on, with no problems that time. Go figure.)
If anyone here has an good answer for how to proceed, I need to know. Thanks in advance!

Problem with opening re-install of CS5 Design Premium on Mac.

I am trying to open component programs of CS5 Design Premium in Mac OS10.7.5 after re-installing CS5 on my MBP late 2008. I receive the following message:
"Configuration Error:
A problem has occured with the licensing of this product. Restart your computer and re-launch the product.
If this problem still occurs after restarting, contact Customer Support for further assistance, and mention the error code shown at the bottom of this screen.
Error: 213:5

I have restarted the computer and still get the same message. I have tried to "reset" permissions for the SLStore and Adobe PCD folders, as recommended in support, to no avail. What is the solution?

Can you Install Adobe Photoshop CS5 on Win 8 with no disc.

I recently acquired a HP ENVY Touchsmart 15 Notebook PC, which comes with Windows 8. I am currently attempting to transfer my programs from my old computer (which was Windows 7) to my new computer, which includes re-installing Adobe Photoshop CS5.
However, as this computer that I currently have doesn't have a CD drive (I was not aware of this as it was a gift), I am unable to put in the CS5 installation CD. I still have all of my licensing information, though. So, that leaves me with the following questions: Is it possible to install CS5 without a disc? And if so, does Windows 8 even support CS5?

You can download the trial version of the software thru the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.
Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site or else the download will not work properly.
CS5: http://prodesigntools.com/all-adobe-cs5-direct-download-links.html
To see if there are any special provisions you should follow for installing on a Windows 8 machine you should search this forum using terms like "Windows 8 CS5" to see if anyone has encountered issues that needed attention

Installing Old Plug-ins into CS5

Is it possible to install old plug-ins (plugins) into Adobe Photoshop CS5?
I have tried a couple of my old plug-ins and could not get any to show up under the Filters menu.
I installed to:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5\Plug-ins
I tried installing Noise Ninja 2.3.2.
I tried installing Kodak GEM AIR Pro.
I tried installing Phototune SkinTun.
No luck with any of them.
I also tried installing a couple to
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64 Bit)\Plug-ins\Filters

No one is likely to have a FIX, per se.
32 bit plug-ins only work with 32 bit Photoshop, while only 64 bit plug-ins work with 64 bit Photoshop. I suspect the 32/64 bit mismatch may be at the root of the problem you're seeing, Hawaii-geek.
Plug-ins generally need to be installed in the new version of Photoshop.
For 32 bit plugins, maybe, just MAYBE, for an individual plugin you can find a way to copy the proper file(s) so that Photoshop CS5 will find them under its OWN Plug-ins subfolder. Photoshop enumerates plugins it finds there when it first starts. But this is not a given as a plug-in may set up things other than just the files when it is installed.
The one thing to remember is that you ABSOLUTELY MUST NOT point the "Extra Plug-ins Folder" at the Plug-ins folder of an old Photoshop installation. Doing so will mix plugins supplied with the older Photoshop version with your new Photoshop version, and this WILL cause you problems.
HangtownGal is using that feature right. For simple one-file plugins, you should be able to point every version of Photoshop to a common separate plug-ins folder, but keep in mind the 32 vs. 64 bit issue I mentioned above. As Chris states, 32 bit Photoshop will only load 32 bit plug-ins, and 64 bit Photoshop will only load 64 bit plug-ins (which are reasonably rare still). And keep in mind more complex plugins often are sets of files that are sometimes copied to a number of different places in the Photoshop installation area.
Why is it you think someone else needs to FIX this problem?
Did you not keep the installation package and/or instructions you got with your old plugins? For those that cannot be installed into a Photoshop version that didn't even exist when they were released, have you checked to see if there are updates available from the plugin manufacturers? You may very well have to pay to upgrade these. You paid to upgrade Photoshop, so is that a problem?

Apple provides repeat downloads as a convenience, not a substitute for your computers being the primary source of file transfers. All your iTunes information such as playlists, ratings, etc. are in a file on your computer, not in the Apple Store. Typically when you move computers you copy the whole iTunes folder and everything it contains to the new computer. Moving media files can be done with a drive, or by Home Sharing. You can also redownload media but let's say somebody desiced Apple may no longer sell a certain album; it cannot be downloaded again but if you already have it on a computer you can move your copy of the file.

Issues Installing CS5.5 Production Premium (Mac OS)

Hello,
I am trying to reinstall Creative Suite: Production Premium CS5.5 on my Mac OS since my previous hard drive crashed. I have the disc version of the software, however, when I try to run the installer I get the error message: "Installer failed to initialize. Please download Adobe support advisor." I have searched this error on the forums, which say to navigate to Mac OS: /Library/Logs/Adobe/Installers/. However, my Logs folder does not have an Adobe folder, so I am not sure how to troubleshoot my issue. Any help would be appreciated!

If you have the Media you can use it to create a bootable USB key via boot camp assistant.
It will create the usb and has the option of pre-downlading the drivers and bootcamp utilities for windows.
It is pretty much all automated and quite simple.
