Installing Creative Design Suite Standard on Microsoft Surface Pro 3

I am trying to install the Creative Design Suite on a Microsoft Surface Pro 3 from a DVD (I recently changed computers and need to transfer my programs to the new machine. From my research assumed the Surface would work well for my needs and allow me to dabble in Illustrator and Photoshop as I learn the programs). I am using an external optical drive however the single USB port on the Surface does not seem to get enough power to run the full installation. I can get the installation started and go so far as to put my in my serial number and then it stops working. At one point I was even given the notice that it appears my software is counterfeit - which it is not. I legally purchased it and have used the same disk on another machine. Is there a way to install the software that would allow me to bypass the usb port/optical drive situation? One solution I read was to use the disk to transfer the program files to another machine, put them on a jump drive and then run installation on the surface through that - but I don't think I can do that with the serial number situation. Has anyone else encountered this problem? Ideas?
-I know the smart thing to do would be to upgrade to the cloud, however at this time I am not proficient enough in the programs that I want to pay $20-30 a month for the programs I am trying to learn. The disk software I currently own is for CS6 and was purchased just before Adobe started using the cloud feature for their programs.

What issue do you have with downloading the installation files?

Launching the trial version of creative design suite

I have downloaded and installed the trial version of the Creative Design Suite, but I am not sure how to launch any of the programs. I have "deploy" "packages" "payloads" and "resources" folders within the adobe folder. thanks!

JurleeMango which operating system are you using? If it is Windows you should find them listed under Start>All Programs. For the Mac OS you will find the applications installed in your Applications folder.

Help! How can I reinstall a Student Teacher Edition of Adobe Creative Design Suite?

My computer crashed, so I had to start over by wiping all of my programs off of my computer. How can I download, install, and activate the Teacher Student Edition of the Creative Design Suite again?

Thank you for responding. I have Windows 64 bit on a PC and I am trying to reinstall the CS6 version that I bought a month ago. (before my computer went haywire and I had to start over) I am trying to install the trial version now, but after the download assistant is installed and opened it won't automatically start downloading the programs like it says it should and the Design Suite doesn't pop up as a version that I can click on. What can you suggest for me to try now?

Legal to install Adobe Design Suite on my friends PC?

Just wanted to ask if it was legal to install Adobe Design Suite on my friends PC? I have the student edition of Adobe Design Suite CS4 and im not sure how many times i am allowed to install it for myself let alone for another person. She is also a valid student and holds a student card. Obviously i didn't pay a lot of money for it to run out of licence uses so i don't want to go over my own amount if i do a reboot for instance. The Microsoft office student edition only has 3 licence uses as an example.
Any replies are already well thanked.

Look at it as a cycle point of view (activate/deactivate). Not as 20 of each.
If you do the following by seperate replacement or upgrade: Update processor, new hard drive, new motherboard, new video card and reinstall windows that is 10 cycles used up right there. Then if you have a laptop or another compter....... it adds up pretty quick.

I have difficulties following that reasoning - how many times does one install the same software on the same computer (or a replacement, if the original one fails) ?
Ok, hardware can fail, so a 2nd installation is quite reasonable. Ok, hardware can fail again, so a 3rd install still seems reasonable.
But then, are we talking about a software release one is going to use for a lifetime? Especially if it comes to student versions; most people don't stay students for the rest of their lives...

Is there a work-around to enable Digital Photo Pro on the Microsoft Surface Pro ????

Is there a way to use Digital Photo Pro on the Microsoft Surface Pro?
As I understand the problem DPP is unable detect the screen resolution of the tablet ( the defauilt res of the tablet
is 1920 x1080) with a minimum of 1024 x768.
It would be usful if one could type in your working screen res into at startup if that's the only problem
___I've looked at other screen drivers from Intell but I realize if I could install thrm I'de lose the touch functionallity
Are there any other ideas out there???
Thanks artB

Canon DPP is Canon provided application for desktop/laptop computers and they don't have a version for any tablets as far as I'm aware (not even iOS or Android versions).
But there are other photo editing programs that would work. I have an iPad. While Apple has their own photo software (which isn't going to work on a Windows tablet) Adobe has an app called PS Touch.
PS Touch isn't nearly as full featured as Photoshop. It limits the image resolution (it resizes any images that you import to it so they don't exceed the max resolution) but it does have most of the commonly used adjustments. So if a person were just trying to get something out, it works in a pinch.
One other catch is that PS Touch can't deal with RAW images... so it's JPEG only. But I can import JPEGs off the card into the iPad and then edit them -- not as well as I can if they're on a regular computer, but this is what I'ved when I'm away for a weekend with my camera.

Microsoft Surface Pro 3 or Surface 2??

Hello,
I am looking at the Microsoft Surface Pro 3 and the Surface 2.
I currently work off a Sony Vaio laptop and it is working OK. I am not intending to replace it (right now); but, would like something that I can work on in another room or take with me.
Would like some feedback on both please.
Thanks!

Microsoft actually has a really neat small test to see which one is best suited to you. Surface Pro 3 was a great addition to the line that added more features to the tablet.
From a personal standpoint I love how they redesigned the rear hinge to do better with keyboards.
To be quite honest though as far as "major features" go the major differences are that the Pro 3's have some i7's while the Pro 2 only had i5's all the way. You can get some cheaper Pro 3's that have only i3's.
The new Pro 3 also has a larger resolution supposedly.
Personally, if you use the keyboard like in your lap or something a lot that would be the only reason as to get the Pro 3 instead of the 2. For most people the Pro 2 was plenty good. I see Pro 3 sort of like Windows 8.1 it was an upgrade to Windows 8 not a real difference.

Photoshop CS6 Brush pressure sensitivity not working on the Microsoft Surface Pro.

I have just purchased a Microsoft Surface Pro in anticipation of running Photoshop on it. I installed Photoshop and tried to do some sketches. I created a new file and started sketching. I Immediately felt like something was wrong. I checked my brush settings and saw the pressure sensitivity was not available. Everytine I tried to turn it on it was marked with an exclamation point.
Does anybody know if Adobe is supporting the new pressure sensitive pen from microsoft, or if there is some sort of setting that I am missing? I have tried sketchbook pro 2011, and that works amazingly well with the pen. I hope someone can help me along here, because if this tablet can truely run photoshop, it would be a Game Changer.

Just curious.... has any of you tried the shape dynamics in photoshop and turning on pen pressure?
and in illustrator to modify the size to pressure and variation to maximum? (and of course select that brush preset that you just modified and draw with it using SHIFT+B for blob brush or B for regular brush)
I am also interested in purchasing a Surface pro so please report if this helps.
what I recently discovered in other forums is that Sketchbook Pro works flawlessly in desktop mode. Sketchbook Express in the APP mode doesn't support pressure yet.
there is no official confirmation that the surface pro uses a wacom digitizer, however a few artist friends of mine have gone to the microsoft store... brought their own wacom pens (cintiq 15x pen - older models that works with general tabletpcs) and the pro recognized it. which means that it is a wacom digitizer. it wouldn't make sense if a wacom pen works with a different digitizer board like N-trig.
also read in another forum about adobe using wintab and windows 8 wintab drivers are not there yet.
anyway... I'd be glad to know if this works or not
thanks!

so far i have tried switching the audio from itunes properties, and it did not work.

Microsoft Surface Pro 3 and Access

Currently, we are using a handheld unit to collect process data from our line which is then uploaded into our Quality Access database via ODBC link. we are upgrading computers and plan to change this handheld to a Microsoft Surface Pro 3.
Question: What would be easiest method to link or upload process data on the Surface Pro to our existing Access quality database.
1. Put a local copy of our database on the tablet then export to the database or use an append query?

Hi plottster,
Since this question is related to Access database and Cross-platform migration usually need software rebuild for compatibility, our help might be limited.
we suggest you refer to office TechNet forum for more advices because if you have question about Access database on Microsoft platform, you might get more helpful information there
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/home?category=officeitpro
If you have question about development on Microsoft platform, we suggest you ask for more advices from MSDN forum

I'm glad your page mentioned the Hyper-V alternative but wish it would elaborate on the potential deficiencies or necessary workarounds. E.g. regarding mouse pointer or Pen, I have W10TP installed as a Hyper-V guest in my Surface Pro 2 and a silly
thing with it is I need to use Mouse Sonar (e.g. press a Ctrl- key) to find out where the pointer is before clicking. After that it works fine. Heh. Right now I'm not having that problem symptom but I can't get on fully to test this recollection
because I have forgotten its password. ; }

Problem installing Circuit Design Suite - "Error while initializing resource loader"

I am attempting to install v 10.0.1 of the Circuit Design Suite (Education and Student Edition). Immediately after starting the install process I get the message "Error while initializing Resource Loader!" and the installer exits. My computer meets the minimum system requirements (512 MB RAM, 20 GB free hard drive space, Windows XP, etc).
Any suggestions for how to work around this problem so I can get Multisim installed?

Hi John,
I'm not sure if you still have issues with the Multisim installer. But just in case here are some comments:
Are you using a CD to install Multisim? If yes, try copying the installer to your hard drive.
Try installing Multisim on a different machine.
Apparently the Resource Loader is related to Java, try un-reinstalling it, upgrading to the latest release, etc.
Let us know how it works,
