Installing cs5.5 to iMac without disk drive

I purchased CS 5.5 last year and installed it to my MacBook.  I now have the new iMac (no disk drive) and want to install the software to this machine.  I registered the product with Adobe and can see the software in My Account when I login to Adobe.com.  Is it possible to install the software to my iMac via download from Adobe.com?  I really want to avoid purchasing an external disk drive.
Thanks!

  • Installing creative suite 5 without disk drive

    Hi - I need to install Adobe Creative Suite 5 Design Premium on a new computer with no disk drive.
    I have the installation discs (and serial number)
    This is the site you're directed to in order to download the software online (with your serial number).
    The site let me download "DesignPremium_CS5_LS1.dmg" to my desktop.
    When I click on the .dmg file, I get this message: The following disk images couldn't be opened, Reason: image not recognized.
    (I also keep finding advice to download a free trial of CS5 and then use my serial # to convert to full ownership. But any link that says 'download' CS5' takes you through a maze that always lands you on info about CS6.)
    Help?

    i assume you have a mac.
    if so, your dmg file is probably incomplete/corrupted.  check its file size against the listed file size.

  • Installing photoshop elements and premiere elements on a MacBook Air without disk drive.

    I recently purchased a computer bundle form my school and I receive the Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 and Adobe Premiere Elements 12 with the bundle.  It came with two DVD-ROMs and activation codes, however my MacBook Air does not have a disk drive.  Is there another way to download the program with only the activation codes instead of using the DVDs. 

    Yes, download and install the trial version.
    Adobe - Download free trial version Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 | Adobe
    Adobe - Download free trial version Adobe Premiere Elements 12 | Adobe
    Enter your serial number when prompted and the software will be fully licensed on your MacBook Air. The 30 day time limited trial restriction will be removed.

  • Retail CS6 install on iMac without optical drive.

    Just bought a new iMac and of course it has no optical drive. I also purchased a retail copy of CS6, but it hasn't arrived yet. Can I download CS6 and then just use the product key that comes in the retail box to activate it...or will I have to install the software via an optical drive (which I will also have to purchase)? Thanks.

    Lotekschmotek please see http://forums.adobe.com/thread/981369 for information on how to download the software.  Also you can copy the files to a USB drive on a computer which does have an optical drive.  You can then use the USB drive to install the software on the new computer.  You may also want to consider getting an external optical drive in case you have a need to install other software or read other optical media in the future.

  • Installing acrobat pro to new computer without disk drive

    i recently purchased a new mac that does not have a disc drive.  i'd like to install adobe acrobat from the disk that i purchased with my old computer.  how do i do this?  possible to get a download code to do from online?

    You could copy the contents of that DVD to a Flash drive and then copy those contents from the Flash drive to your desktop of your new Mac. You could also download the ESD (Electronic Service Download ) of your version of Acrobat from the links below and then install it.

  • Transferring a Previously Purchased Product to a New Computer without Disk Drive

    I've recently upgraded computers from an iMac to a Macbook Pro with Retina (which has no disk drive). I need to transfer my Adobe Photoshop CS5 to my new computer - but have no way of installing it since there is no disk drive. Where can I find a download of Photoshop CS5 so I can complete my transfer?

    Yeah I do expect some of that as well but I had this program running happily on my last laptop and it is all the same OS (Win 7) and all but just no disk drive to load it from. If I was moving to a new OS then I could see it but this is just a fact of downloading a file. I tried to copy over the program from my back-up drive but it will not accept it. Its a planned obsolescence I suppose but a program from a reputable company that is still working on current OS systems should be supported or at least available for download. They just want our money.

  • How do I install windows using BootCamp without cd drive fot the new MBP?

    I need some softwares for my work (modelsim, altera, ltspices etc) but some of them only supports windows.
    New MBP doesnt seem to have a cd driver.
    How do I install windows using bootcamp without cd drivers?

    You can use a USB thumbdrive to do this, assuming you have access to a windows machine to format the usb stick.
    I installed Win7 on my MB Air (2011), which of course lacks a DVD drive altogether, using this technique.
    Basically, you download a tool called rEFIt to your macbook. ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/refit/files/rEFIt/0.14/rEFIt-0.14.dmg/download ) When this is installed, it gives you a boot selector menu when you boot the Macbook ('Do you want to boot to MacOS or to the USB drive?')
    Then you download and run an Apple tool called Boot Camp Assistant, which allows you to partition your HD for the two operating systems to share; it also pulls down all the windows drivers you need.
    Then prep the USB thumbdrive on a windows machine to be a Win7 installer disk. You'll want a drive in the 4gb+ range I think. You have to set up the thumbdrive to be bootable (lots of tools for that available), and then copy all the windows installation files over to it.
    Put the thumbdrive in the macbook and boot holding down the option key.
    Choose the rEFIt icon on boot, then choose to boot from the thumbdrive, then format your new windows partition to something Win7 can handle, and install windows.
    On my machine I followed a slightly more involved process and wiped out MacOS entirely. I would have kept it on a small partition if I'd had a bigger hard drive.
    If you need super detailed instructions, CNET has some here:
    http://howto.cnet.com/8301-11310_39-20020513-285/install-win-7-on-macbook-air-fr om-a-usb-drive/
    Tech-Recipes has some similar instructions here:

    If you have any issues after trying this, ping me and I may have solved them when I went through the same process.

  • How to install WinXP on SATA without floppy drive?

    Hi.
    Is it possible to install WinXP on PC (with SATA) without floppy drive?
    WinXP installer itself doesn't recognize SATA controller, so floppy disk with drivers is included.
    But my PC doesn't have any floppy drive (what a relic. none of new PCs should contain a floppy).
    How could I install WinXP on my PC? (without buying & mounting floppy drive).
    (maybe one of DVD drives, ethernet or flash drive could be used somehow)
    thanks.

    Jeremy,
    If you are having to do that all the time, then there is something else wrong with your computing habbits.
    Richard
    I used to try out programs on my old laptop and some of them weren't as clean as I had hoped. So I used to reinstall windows on it all the time. Luckily windows had all the drivers for my laptop so I didn't have to slipstream the drivers, but I probably reinstalled windows every other week. I just figured it was better to try a program on a computer that I didn't rely on rather than my main rig.
    Have Fun

  • URGENT: Install Tiger on iBook without CD Drive or Firewire Drive

    Help!!
    I have an iBook which needs Tiger installing.
    However, the CD drive has pack up, and I dont have a Firewire External CD player, only a USB one.
    Is there a way i can connect another Mac to the iBook by firewire cable and use that CD drive to install Tiger on the iBook?
    Any help, advice would be massively appreciated
    Glenn

    These installs will work subject to license agreement:
    1. Connect an external firewire drive to any machine.
    2. Boot off CD and install on external firewire drive.
    3. Clone back to same machine or move said hard drive internally into same
    machine if it has the same interface inside the Firewire enclosure as inside the machine.
    1. Setup an iMac G4 1.25 Ghz in Target mode with a broken optical drive.
    2. Boot off Leopard on a second iMac G4 1.25 Ghz and connect the machine in step one to the machine in step 2.
    3. Install Leopard or Tiger.
    1. Boot off Firewire DVD drive the Leopard or Tiger installer.
    2. Install Leopard on the same machine the drive is connected to.
    These types of install will NOT work:
    1. Setup an iBook G4 1.25 Ghz in target mode with a broken optical drive.
    2. Boot off an iBook G4 1 Ghz and connect the machine step one to the machine in step 2.
    3. Install Leopard or Tiger
    1. Install on an external firewire hard drive from an iBook G4 1 Ghz Leopard or Tiger.
    2. Connect an iBook G4 1.25 Ghz to the hard drive in step 1.
    3. Clone back from the hard drive Leopard or Tiger (whichever is installed) or if the firewire hard drive case was a 2.5" hard drive Parallel ATA move the hard drive into the iBook.
    The reason is that each vintage Mac, and each Mac model has distinct drivers.
    In Target mode, the target machine (the machine you held the T key down) is assumed by the installer to be nothing more than an external drive to be a machine with the same configuration of the host machine because that's the only machine's firmware it can detect.
    And by "work" I mean, the installation may appear it succeeds but circumstances such as kernel panics, and unsuccessful upgrades later will make the whole effort in vain.
    Either replace the internal optical drive or attach an external Firewire DVD drive to install on a machine whose optical drive is broke, or get an identical Mac model to install using Target Disk Mode. If you don't have an identical machine, don't waste your effort on what can become an even worse install than had you left everything alone.

  • Upgrading to 10.6.x without disk drive

    The disk drive for my mac has not been working for a while. However, I found my old 10.6 Snow Leopard install disk. My computer is 10.5.8. I have another mac. Is it possible to pop in the disk to the working computer and use the Lion Installer to create a bootable USB drive.
    My questions are:
    1. Can I do this?
    2. Can I upgrade this way without deleting files?
    3. Is it like a windows system where you might have to tell it to boot from USB? If so, how?
    Thank you,
    Alex Fu

    Hi Alex,
    Is the 10.6 Install Disc a Retail version, or did it come with a certain Mac?
    Is the 10.5.8 Mac Intel or PPC?
    Yes, you can create a DMG of an Install Disc, & Restore that to a USB stick or drive.

  • Can I install photoshop elements 10 without disk using serial numbers?

    Hi everyone. I recently purchased a Macbook Air, which doesn't have a disk drive. I have a photoshop elements disk with serial numbers, but obviously without anywhere to put the disk I can't install it with that. I'm wondering if there's a way to download photoshop elements with just the serial numbers. I looked everywhere for a solution and nothing has come up so far.

  • Mac Mini Restore without disk drive

    I bought a new mac mini and used migration assistant to move my old macbook profile over. Now it is running just as slow as the old laptop. How do I restore the mini to factory settings without a disk drive? Is it even necessary or is there a better way to figure out and fix what is slowing it down? 
    2.5GHz dual-core Intel Core i5
    4GB memory
    500GB hard drive
    1 Intel HD Graphics 4000
    OS X Mountain Lion

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    If you had problems with your old computer, you shouldn't use Migration Assistant to transfer your data or these problems will appear on the new Mac.
    To restore your Mac to factory settings, follow these steps:
    1. Hold Command and R keys while your computer is starting to start into OS X Recovery, and open Disk Utility.
    2. Select Macintosh HD in the sidebar, go to Erase tab and erase the disk.
    3. Close Disk Utility and reinstall OS X.
    New Macs don't come with discs because OS X Mountain Lion is only available as a download, so you have to use OS X Recovery to reinstall OS X now > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
