Installing CS5.5 on my new mac pro - what to do?

Over the years I've purchased CS3 (boxed), CS 5 Design Premium (boxed), and CS 5.5 Design Premium (downloaded upgrade). I am ready to install 5.5 on my new mac pro. Questions:
I had once copied some CS 5.5 dmg files to my backup drive but they appear to be only pdfs about installing, etc., not applications...so,
Do I need to install my boxed CS5 first or is my 5.5 the complete set even though purchased as an 'upgrade'? (I see there are complete, separate CS5 and CS5.5 folders on my old mac)
With the above info in mind, I have to re-download CS5.5 from Adobe, right? Thanks!

Simply install CS5.5 right away and it will ask for the previous serials for verification.

Installing L8 on a new Mac Pro = more than 2 simultaneous authorizations!?

I'm just a couple of days away from taking delivery of a new Mac Pro and will soon be undertaking the tedious process of updating and installing all of the applications and plug-ins currently taking up residence on the system drive of my Dual 2.7 G5 PowerMac.
My question is this. Since I presently have L8 installed on both the G5 and my MBP, and (as I understand it) Apple only allows for 2 simultaneous installations of Logic Studio/L8, what kind of challenges (if any) am I going to run into installing L8 on the new Mac Pro while it's still installed on the other 2 machines? My intent is to ultimately wipe the G5's HD clean once this has been done and it appears everything is working properly on the Mac Pro, but certainly not before it's been done.
Anyone have a definitive answer on this matter?

It's been several weeks since I installed L8 on both my MBP and PowerMac, but I seem to recall in both cases having to go through some kind of actual "registration" process before completing the install. I'm assuming there's something on Apple's end that associates the registration to a specific machine ID when it's done online. If that's the case, and it has to be done each time L8 is installed, I don't suppose it would be too difficult for Apple to figure out you're running it on more than 2 machines.
In any case, if you're of the opinion that it really doesn't matter, I guess I'll find out when I begin migrating everything over to the new MacPro within the next couple of days. Thanks again for your help.

Hello, I purchased Adobe as a download a few years ago and installed in on a Mac Pro. I would like to uninstall it on that mac and install it on a new Mac Pro. Any idea how I can do that?

Just download, install, and activate using your serial number. You are allowed to have the software installed and activated on two machines. If you do not wish to retain the original installation as a backup you can deactivate it by opening one of the programs and choosing Help -> Deactivate.
Here is a general link for where you can find download links...
Download and Installation Help -
https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install.html
If you would like a more direct link you will need to name the software and the version.
If you need your serial number you should be able to find it in your Adobe account online if you registered the software when you first installed it.

New Mac Pro: What are You using to connect your eSATA external drives to you nMacPro?

Hi,
I have some eSATA external HDs that I would like to use with my 2013 New Mac Pro.
I was just wondering what other have been using to connect their nMPs to eSATA devices and how well it has worked. I have seen a USB3 to eSATA cable from NewEgg.... which seems like a good idea ... if it will work.
Thanks!

LaCie TB HUB has two TB ports which is good for daisy chain. Has two esata ports also. I connect a Voyager bought from OWC to one sata port and that's where my bare 2.5 and 3.5 hard drives reside when I need them. The other sta port has a Pioneer 207 blu ray drive. When I sleep my 2013 Mac Pro I turn off the power to the Voyager and the Pioneer. All work flawlessly.

Premiere CS5 crash in new Mac Pro 2010

I have two problems:
1. Sometimes when I make double cick in premiere icon, the program don't start. I see the previous premiere window with the 4 last projects, but I can not select anything, because the pointer mouse become a beach ball. I have to turn off the program with Alt+Cmd+esc.
2. The big problem. Premiere CS5 5.0.0 crash editing while I'm making marks In and Out in Source window or playing the timeline. The 3 monitors became black or freeze, mouse disapears, sounds freeze and I have to restart with power button.
I have last Mac Pro 2010, 2,8GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon, Mac OS X 10.6.4, 8GB RAM, ATi Radeon 5870, 3 x Hard disk 2 TB, 3 monitors connected trought DVI double chanel, and two minidisplayport-DVI double chanel.
Sorry for my english.
Any help or doubt about my explanation?

Thanks Todd!
I install Premiere Pro CS5 (5.0.2) update, and the graphics update from apple but the problem persists. I disconnected two monitors, too.
It's very extrange because I had a configuration system running ok, premiere running ok, everything good, but the system hard disk crashes.
The problem is when I reinstall a backup copy of that system in a new hard disk, then Premiere don't start, and when start then crashes editing. All of the programs are running well, and other adobe CS5 applications, too.
The old hard disk is a Hitachi 2TB (originally from apple), and the new hard disk is a Western Digital caviar black 1TB.
I make the backup system from a *.dmg file. I tried with time machine, with disk utilities and with Carbon Copy Cloner. The result is always the same. Premiere won't start.
I think I have small ghosts inside my computer =)
Maybe is question of a bad clone but this is not a complicated task.
Maybe is question of permits. But I resolve the permits question with disk utilities.
Do you think is question of the clone image?
Now I'm reinstalling a new copy of Leopard SO after formatting the new hard drive western digital 1TB. I will install only the CS5 adobe master collection, to tried in a clean system.

Is the RAM installed correctly in my 'new' Mac Pro 1,1???

Hey folks, just picked up a used Mac Pro 1,1 2x2Ghz on ebay earlier this week to replace my 2Ghz dual core G5..
Im looking at adding some more RAM to the machine and am wondering if the person I bought this from even has the ram installed correctly.
When I opened it up, the 2x2GB sticks were both in the first two slots in the bottom memory tray. Luckily I had some RAM I planned on putting in it right when I got it out of the box (and then found out my 4GB of DDR2 SDRAM doesnt work with it hehehe), which required me to go look it up online before I even plugged the thing in, so I moved the tray with the RAM in it to the upper slot like the article I read said it was supposed to be..
Now I just read the Apple support doc that pops up when you click the Upgrade Memory link in the Memory tab in System Profiler and am confused even more..
Am I supposed to have both of those FB-DIMMs on the upper tray or do I need to move one of them to first slot of the lower tray??
Also, I noticed in the installation pictures, the top tray is pictured as being installed upside down, so the RAM in both trays is right above/below one another, but both of mine are right side up..
My Mac looks like everythings fine, system profiler shows me both DIMMs in tray A and isnt complaining... Gave Logic Pro a nice run the other night and havent really run into any problems or a KP yet.. Been reinstalling my recording software like crazy and no problems yet either..
Just wanted to make sure how its really supposed to be installed in case I could possibly end up frying something down the line..

See even the first two links posted have conflicting information.. According to OWC, I should have one 2GB stick on each riser, but that second link with the memory configuration pictures, the last config for the 4GB shows both 2GB sticks on riser A (thats actually the doc I was referring to earlier that I looked at when I first got the Mac) so I figured I was ok.. None of those options show one stick on each riser..
And again in regards to the way the riser is installed.. Apples own memory upgrade doc does indeed show the top riser installed upside down so the heat sinks are facing each other.. But every actual picture Ive seen, and OWC's own installation video shows them both installed right side up.. Now that I think about it after watching the OWC video, the riser cards are keyed, so I dont see how it would fit upside down in the first place..
I dont know I guess Ill just leave it like it is. I should be getting a pair of 2GB DIMMs hopefully in another week or so when money permits so Ill have both risers in use anyways..
Maybe mine is a later 2007 version of the 1,1 or something and there was a revision done??? Wish you could tell the actual date by serial number instead of just the timeframe the model was in existence hehehe.

Can i run Photoshop CS5.1on a new Mac Pro?

My question is basically can older versions of software run on the newest Mac Pro computers?

Adobe CS2 is not Free Software you need a licence to run it legally
System Requirements for Photoshop CS2
by Shea Laverty, Demand Media
While Adobe Photoshop CS2 was released in May 2005, its age may make it an appealing target to businesses -- as of the date of publication, CS2 is still an adequate product for most basic business needs and may be available second-hand for considerably less than the price of purchasing the latest version. Because there are few modern computer systems incapable of running this system, prospective owners should check their system against the minimum requirements before purchase and installation.
Processor
Windows users looking to install Photoshop CS2 will need at least an Intel Xeon, Xeon Dual, Centrino, Pentium III, Pentium 4 or comparable CPU in order to run the program. Mac users will need at least a G3, G4 or G5 PowerPC processor.

Anyone having problems installing Boot Camp with New Mac Pro 2.8?

I just get blank screen after it restarts with XP disk. I'm using a vga - dvi adapter with a apple 17" display..
I've phoned apple and read up on here but nobody seems to know. I just wondered whether my 2008 Mac Pro was faulty...
Please can you help?
cheers

Are you getting a white screen after the Mac reboots? If so, try disconnecting all non-essential USB/FW devices.
I had the exact same problem and I went through a long, stressful process of elimination to get it working, even to the extent of using my MacBook as an external drive through target disk mode!
It turned out to be my iMage USB camera. Even after successfully installing Windows I have to disconnect it before using Bootcamp.
I Hope this helps.

Installing OSX Server on new Mac Pro Nehalem

Mac Pro received at the weekend. I have encountered a problem that I will need your assistance to resolve with installing OSX Server 10.5
1. We have OSX Leopard Server on DVD - version 10.5 which won't install onto the Mac Pro.
2. I have checked online and this is a known issue see here : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3479
3. I have followed these steps and I now have OSX Server 10.5.7 installed
4. Problem is that without a bootable OSX Server DVD I cannot reinstall my timemachine backups via the utility on the DVD.
Please let me know how I can proceed as I cannot complete the migration without a bootable DVD.

Can Server be cloned the same as client version?
Can you clone client and upgrade the second OS to Server as your real bootable backup?
Why not restore from TimeMachine first, then upgrade to server? (Not a fan of TimeMachine though and prefer other methods).

Installing Universal Studio on New Mac Pro

How do I install CS5 onto my new Mac OSX that has no disc drive?

I have the serial number and have loaded it onto one other computer, so I should still be able to put the program on my laptop as well. But it is giving me an error 6 for both PS and AI, but InDesign is saying I am missing files.
I have contacted the help center and it was no help, it was clear she did not know what to do because she kept asking me if I had a disc drive on my laptop which I had to keep clarifying that no, I don't.
I put the applications on a external harddrive and tried dragging them over onto my laptop, hoping it would just require I type in the serial number, but that did not work.
Please help!

Correct. No install, no licensing system, no working apps. You must run the installer properly. Refer to the below articles:
Errors "Exit Code: 6," "Exit Code: 7"
Troubleshoot with install logs
Anything beyond that will require much more info on your part.

Downloading cs5 on new mac pro

I am trying to download the trial of cs5 to my new mac pro. I downloaded and installed the newest flash and Adobe Air, yet when I click to install the download manager nothing happens...?

Do you receive any error messages? Which version of Mac OS are you using? Are you able to sign into the Adobe Download Assistant?
Alternately you can utilize http://forums.adobe.com/thread/981369 to download the install files directly.

HT3231 how do i TRANSFER MY PHOTOS AND VIDEOS FROM MY MAC PRO POWERBOOK G4 TO MY NEW MACBOOK PRO, WHAT WOULD BE THE BEST WAY, THANKS

I HAVE A MAC POWERBOOK G4 AND WOULD LIKE TO TRANSFER MY FILES, PHOTOS AND VIDS TO MY NEW MAC PRO, WHAT WOULD BE THE BEST METHOD?? THANKS ROB

I think the easiest way is to use a firewire cable (you will need on like this: http://www.google.com/products/catalog?q=Firewire+400+to+800+cable&oe=utf-8&rls= org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=shop&cid=120962573 04625337030&sa=X&ei=PytQT9r4NtOBsgL9s_C6Dg&ved=0CHYQ8gIwAA).
Power up the Power Mac G4 and hold the "T" key while it is booting (this puts the G4 notebook in Firewire Target Disk mode). Connect the G4 notebook to the newer MacBook Pro and use the Migration assistant (/Applications/Utilities) OR browse through the files and copy what you want.
