Installing cs5.5 from cd on yosemite

Hello!
I'm trying to install Master Suite CS5.5 from a CD on a new MacBook Pro (using a usb CD drive). I was almost done with the installation (about halfway done with the second disc) when the installer wanted me to close down Safari. Safari wasn't open. I pressed "Continue," but the same message popped up. I opened Safari, closed it, then pressed "Continue," but the message popped up again. Not seeing another solution, I pressed "Cancel," which stopped the installation. The installer said that I installed some programs, but not others.
I'm trying to install it again. The installer says Illustrator and Premiere are the only programs left to install. Yet when I click install, it eventually gives me an error message (Exit Code 7 with 1 fatal error, 2 errors and 3 warnings).
I tried starting the computer in "Safe Boot" and installing, but I got the same error message.
I'm guessing I should uninstall all of the programs, then try reinstalling them. Will my serial code still work if I do that? Do you have any suggestions?
I really appreciate your help.
Thank you.

Hi,
I've downloaded the 24 files direct from Adobe but cant see which file i need to click on to initiate installation of CS5. Is there a general file i need to click on first?

Any help would be very welcome.

Install CS5 UPGRADE from cs2 on Windows 8

I just purchased a Windows computer running Windows 8, and I want to install on it CS 5. But the CS 5 I have is an upgrade, so it won't install unless I have CS2 (my previous version) already on the computer, and CS2 won't install on Windows 8. What do I do?

unless I have CS2 (my previous version) already on the computer,
You don't need to have CS2 installed.
If the CS5 upgrade installer cannot find an earlier qualifying version installed then it will prompt you to enter the CS2 serial number instead.

I am installing CS5 Extended from a disk, yet am getting a message to please insert disk

Put in disk.
Clicked on setup
Entered serial number
system spends some times installing
Then I get a message asking me to please insert CS5 disk. It's already in the harddrive.
I installed this last month on a a different computer, no problems. However computer crashed and burned so am attempting to install on new computer and getting no where.
Ideas?

Could be that your disk is corrupt or your drive is broken. You can find a direct download link here:

Can't install CS5.5 from disk nor from net. Why?

I own CS 5.5 which I bought in 2012 in DVD installer format. I want to install it in my MacBook Pro but when I start the installer i get a message stating that the installing program cannot start and I should get the Adobe Support Advisor. This is no longer available. I have tried to install from the net and I get the same result. How do I start the installer? I do have the installing DVD and serial number.

I now see that I needed to download and install the Application Manager first. All is well now.

remove your caps database. this shows the location for cs3. make the obvious changes for cs5.

Installed CS5, now can't export from CS4! Help! "Could not read from the source..."

I installed CS5 but completely ignored the fact plugins were required to be 64-bit. It'll be months before the plugins I require for my projects to be updated!
So I continued editing in CS4 and when I attempted to export with the media encoder it halts instantly with an exclamation mark, the log says :
"Could not read from the source. Please check if it has moved or been deleted."
And yes I'm not stupid, I did my research.
I tried uninstalling CS4 and reinstalling. I tried the shortcut fix. I tried moving my cache files. My extensions are correct.
Right now the only fix seems to be completely removing CS5 and CS4, After Effects just because they share files (?) and all my settings and plugins along with it! I'd rather NOT do that if I can!

Good detective work, and glad that it worked. Now, your cure will be here for us to link to and for others to find. Your title will help direct others to this thread. Job well done.
Thanks,

Upgraded hardware, and went from XP to Win7 - how do I transfer/install CS5 onto new SSD hard drive?

I recently upgraded all my computer internals; new mobo, Samsung SSD (solid state drive), CPU and ram. Also went from XP Pro to Win 7 Pro, with Win 7 Pro now residing on the new solid state drive. I still have the old 1TB Serial ATA hard drive connected as a storage device, and this is where CS5 resides. But of course, my CS5 applications are now unusable.
Can someone please give me some guidance as to how to transfer the CS5 installation from the old HD (XP Pro) to the new SSD (Win 7 Pro)? I started doing some research, and read about first "deactivating" CS5, but I cannot open any of my CS5 applications to "deactivate". So I am stumped. I am reticent to attempt a new install from my CS5 disks until I learn the proper process..........
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Can I transfer my CS5 files from my Windows 7 computer to my Mac Yosemite computer and have them work with CS6 for Mac?

I am using Dreamweaver CS5 on a Windows 7 laptop. I would like to change to Dreamweaver CS6 on my Mac running Yosemite. Can I transfer my CS5 files from the Windows computer to the Mac and will CS6 be able to work those files on the Mac? I do not need nor want a subscription account. Just the stand-alone program for occasional tweeks to my web site. at www.longwayhome.com.
It is a realtively simple web site that requires only simple editing from time to time.
Ed Dover

Yes, your files in CS5 are just .html, .css, .php and .js files, there's nothing that makes them "CS5 versions" of those file types.
You can do it a couple different ways, but the easiest would be to copy the folder being used as the root directory (and all of it's contents) from one machine to the other, then on the new machine, simply set up a new site definition, using that newly copied folder as the local root.
If you want, you can export your site settings (FTP and whatnot) on the old machine...
Go to Site > Manage Site> click the site you want > Export
Copy the resulting .ste file along with the local root folder to the new machine
On the new machine go to Site > Manage Sites > import to bring in the .ste
Relink that new site to the newly copied root folder
