Installing Pagemaker 5.0 onto a new computer

I need to install Pagemaker 5.0 (and then subsequently the 6.5 upgrade software) onto my new computer. However the installation disks for PM5 are the old 4 1/2" floppy disks.
Any idea how I can get round this?

It's unlikely that this will ever work. Even PM 6.5 is not compatible with Win 7/ Win 8. The best might be to just try and install 6.5 and provide the serial numbers:

I currently run the Design and Web Premium CS6 on a first generation MacBook Air and want to buy a new MacBook Pro. How do I know whether I can install my Adobe programs onto the new computer? Because I know there is some kind of limit.

Also, I had to install the software twice on my same computer before because I had to reboot the computer. I don't know if this affects the limit.

You are allowed to have two activated installations so there should not be a problem having working installations on the two machines. If by chance you have somehow tied up two activations for the one machine you can have Adobe support help resolve that thru chat.

I bought a student version of CS 5 a few years ago, and just got a new computer (a MacBook Air). The computer doesn't have a CD drive, so how can I install my CS 5 onto my new computer?

I want to install Photoshop elements 11 onto a new computer but have lost my activation code

I have a new pc and want to install my photoshop elemets onto it but have lost my activation code. Tried searching on Adobe, but I did not register the product. How can I retrieve it?

You can check you Adobe account online to see if the serial number is registered under your account. If not then your only option will likely be to contact Adobe Support directly thru chat to see if they can provide you with a/the serial number. For them to do so will require you being able to prove ownership.

When i try to install iTunes onto my new computer, it says ""installation pkg could not be opened. Verify that this pkg exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer pkg."

When I try to install iTunes onto my new computer, it says "This installation package could not be opened. Verify that this package exists and that you can access it or contact the application vendor to verify to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package." I can save iTunes onto my computer, but when I click run, this is the message that appears. How do I get this thing installed?

How do you install CS5 onto a new computer without Time Machine/file transfer

I'm not getting a new computer, but my current one is getting a little old (Macbook Pro V. 10.6.8) and I'm afraid it might crash if I download the newest Maverick system, which is why I want to make absolutely sure I'm able to save and transfer all my old files and CS5 Creative Suite programs if this indeed happens. I don't trust Time Machine to do it; my boss had this happen and Time Machine did not transfer the Adobe programs. I also don't want to rely on Time Machine and any other file transfer (which all new Macs offer) because I've had brand new computers crash because of old corrupt files from my old computer converting over, and the Apple people said it's a bad idea (which would have been nice to know BEFORE the computer crashed and everything. . .) I've been told you can only use the CD to install CS5 onto your computer twice, which I've already done (thanks to my brand new computer crashing once already). So I would like to know how it's possible to install the program onto a new computer should this one crash, without the use of file transfer or Time Machine. I have no interest in upgrading to CC.
Thanks!

Avoid using Time Machine for re-installing Adobe software. It rarely works and usually breaks the activation mechanism.
I've been told you can only use the CD to install CS5 onto your computer twice,
Not quite.
You can install the software as many times as you like but you can only activate the software for use on a maximum of two computers at the same time.
To re-install you will need your CS5 serial number.
Download the installer from Download CS5 products
Install then enter your serial number when prompted.

I am trying to instal CS5 onto my new computer. My other one was stolen. Serial number doesn't work.

if you can't find your serial number (http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html), you'll need to contact adobe support (http://www.adobe.com/support/chat/ivrchat.html).

I lost my redemption code to install Lion onto my new computer. Is there a way I could get it again? When I go to the "get the update" page, it says that my serial number already has a code. How do I find this code again?!

It is probably broken. You can try restoring it using Recovery Mode, but if that fails its time for a new phone. After all, it is 4 generations out of date. See: Recovery Mode

Re-installing lightroom onto a new computer

Hi
I've just got a new imac and I already have Lightrrom 4 on my old one. I'm sure to most this is a VERY simple question so sorry in adance but believe it or not I cannot find the answer in any forums. How do I reinstall Lightroom onto a new computer?
Can I do this somehow using the serial number? I'm sure the licence allows use on 2 machines so I dont think I have to purchase again.
When I go into order history on my adobe account page, I thought I might be able to download it from there again... but cant see this option.
PLease could any replies be in simple speak and not too technical.
Many thanks

reference to: writing down serial numbers. Expect this from software in the 1980s.
as such, unable to use the software.
Office 365 on the other hand, no problem.
There's a pleasant surprise.
edit2: maybe i can copy it across from my old installation? Surely that is too easy.
Anthony - doing a fresh install and just been gutted by adobe. Time vampire like this is deprecated by me.
I guess I don't understand any of this, it's not even clear to me what your issue is. Please describe the problem more clearly without discussing Time vampires and Office 365.

I purchased a new computer, i want to install the CS5 i previously purchased onto my new computer. How do I do this? Do I have to repurchase the product?

You don't have to repurchase CS5. If you still have the old computer, you should open one of the CS5 applications and choose Help > Deauthorize to remove using that computer from your license.
If you no longer have access to the old computer, you can do this with web chat here:

If it's a new computer, you can install from the original discs or installer. If you don't have a copy, you can download it here:

I am trying to put the music from my ipod onto my new computer. After installing itunes and connecting my ipod touch a message comes up saying that my ipod is already synced with another library. What can I do to sync it with a new library?

I recently got a new computer and got rid of my old one. I am trying to put the music from my ipod touch onto my new computer but keep getting a message saying that my ipod is already synced with a library and cannot be synced with more than one. How do I access that library on my new computer and if I can't are their other ways for me to put the music on my ipod into my new computer?

Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your ipod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your ipod without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your iPod for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the ipod for the first time.
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0
