Is is possible to install CS3 on Mac 10.6.8?

My hard drive crashed and I had to install a new one in my mac book. Since it's now blank, I'm needing to reupload all of the software (cs3 design standard) and I keep getting this message:
"System Requirements Error
This software cannot be installed because the file
system of the OS volume is not supported."
Any way to work around this? I can't afford to move to cs6, and it was working fine before the crash. Thanks in advance for your help!

Is it possible to install CS3 on an external hard drive so I can edit on any PC it's attached to?

I think this would be fantastic if it could be done, as my PC's internal hard drive is not that spacious or fast, and the added ability of being able to plug in a hard drive to another computer and edit on it would be great.

>That Registry information is REQUIRED for a Windoze program to run
For the sake of accuracy I must point out that this statement is incorrect. I regularly write MS Windows software that does not require the use of the Windows Registry to work.
Use of the Registry is not a requirement of the Windows OS. Application developers can use it or not as desired.

Is it possible to install Photoshop CS6 on Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks?

Hi, I want to buy Photoshop CS6 but I'm not sure if it's possible to install it on Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks).
Can anyone help me?

Yes, I'm running both CS6 and CC here on Mavericks. No issues.

Install Tiger on Mac OS X Server

Actually there are two questions:
1) Is it possible to install X11 on Mac OS X Server 10.4.8 running on Dual 1.8GHz PPC G5?
2) If not, is it possible to install Tiger (Mac OS X 10.4.5) using the install disk I got along with my MacBook Pro on the above machine?
I tried, but got a kernel panic. I desperately need to install X11 on the G5. Someone please help.

I don't know what I was doing earlier, but I could install X11 on the PPC G5 using the install disks that came along with the Intel Core Duo MacBook Pro using the optional installs mpkg.

Install CS3 without CD?

My computer recently crashed and I am looking to re-install Photoshop CS3 on my new PC. My new PC does not have a disc drive, so I was wondering if it was possible to install CS3 without using the CD?

if you follow all 7 steps you can dl a trial here: http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html
and activate with your serial.
if you have a problem dl'g, you didn't follow all 7 steps. the most common error involves failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).

Installing InDesign CS3 on Mac OS 10.9.5 Mavericks

Installation of InDesign CS3 on Mac OS 10.9.5 Mavericks
This question is Not Answered.
s c perks Oct 14, 2014 6:04 AM
1. I have InDesign CS3, which I bought about 6 years ago, and installed on my MacBook Pro. I have now got a new Mac Pro running OS 10.9.5 Mavericks. When I bought the machine I asked Apple if I would be able to install my InDesign and they said there would be no problem. But it will not install. The intsllation fails every time near the end. It installs Bridge and one other components, both of which it calls shared components. But InDesign is not installed.
I went to the Adobe web site and looked up what to do. I got to a page that had my product on and it seemed to be telling make I must download an installer. When I clicked on this link, however I got a page with the following message:
HTTP ERROR: 404 /support/downloads/dlm/main.jsp
RequestURI=/support/downloads/dlm/main.jsp
I do not know what to do now.
2. If I do download an installer (I did not need to do this when I first installed the programme on my lap top MacBook Pro 6 years ago, but just installed it from the disc), how do I get rid of the downloader afterwards, since I read somewhere, but cannot remember where, that I should get rid of the installer afterwards but that I should not put it in the trash bin?
Thank you for any help you can give me.

Many thanks for your help. I will try this. After posting this question yesterday I contacted Adobe and was astonished to find that they do not sell InDesign and do not support it and that one can only upgrade to monthly or yearly rental of CreativeCloud. I'm afraid for me this is nonsense, and I consider it very bad practice on Adobe's part. I will have to go to QuarkExpress instead if I cannot install Indesign CS3, which I nearly did do 6 years ago, but after reading such good reviews of InDesign and got it. I wish now I'd got Quark! I appreciate your help.

I've lost the use of Appleworks in 10.9.2. Is it possible to partition the internal hard drive of my MacBook Pro and install an older Mac OS (10.6.8) on the second partition with OS 10.9.2 on the other?

I've lost the use of Appleworks by upgrading to 10.9.2.
Is it possible to partition the internal hard drive of my MacBook Pro and install an older Mac OS (10.6.8) on the second partition with OS 10.9.2 on the other? I'd like to be able to boot to the older OS when I need Appleworks and few other applications that aren't available on OS 10.9.2.
Any suggestions?
Thank you for your help.

Hello again, WZZZ,
Here's an update. I was successful in creating two partitions on my internal drive, and in installing OS 10.6.6 on the second partition, as per your guidence. I now have it up to 10.6.8 with all the security updates and AppleWorks. A great thing.
Some thoughts:
• The partitioning had one hitch; it failed at first. But once I "repaired" the disc with Disc Utility the partitioning went thru.
• The partitioning took a long time in 'resizing the partition.' A few hours I think it was. Lots of progress bar watching.
• If I had it to do again, I'd size the two partitions differently. My original data was occupying about 230 Gb of the 320 Gb disc. I made the new partitions share the space, about 230 and 75Gb. That left very little available space for the main disc. I ought to have put some breathing room in there. As it is, it's an incentive to clean up all those files, especially all those iTunes files. I now have about 10% of available space there and mean to continue deleting.
So, all in all a good project that got me where I wanted to go. Thank you for your help.
Appreciatively,
wallah

HELP New Install CS3.3 on a MAC

HI,
I have a Mac freash out the box it has OX 10.5 and I tried to install CS3.3 upgrade on it but all it did was install fireworks and Pro 9.
my question Do I have to have CS3 on my Mac first then use the up grade CD to upgrade should the up grade have to full virsion on it too? or I'm I doing something wrong ? Please help me

The CS3 to CS3.3 upgrade is nothing but Acrobat 9(and in the case of
Design Premium, Fireworks).
Pop CS3 DVD in and do a custom install without Acrobat 8.

The computer I use at work is a PC. I know you are allowed to install the programs on two computers, one work computer and one laptop. My laptop is a Mac. Is it possible to install the second copy on a Mac?

I'm not sure if I'm in the right forum for this question, but I don't know where else to ask about installing on cross platforms. So, the computer I use at work is a PC. I know you are allowed to install the programs on two computers, one work computer and one laptop. My laptop is a Mac. Is it possible to install the second copy on a Mac?

Which Adobe product exactly?
Cloud: yes.
Creative Suite: no.

Possible to Install Leopard on External HD and Boot on Another Mac?

Is it possible to install the Leopard upgrade DVD onto an External HD, AND THEN use the external HD to boot Leopard onto another Mac? Also, since the upgrade disc is an "upgrade," would I have to first install Tiger onto the External HD?
If possible...
Am I able to create an External Boot Drive that can boot both onto a PPC Mac and also onto an Intel Mac? Or will I have to create separate partitions?
Lastly, can Intel Macs boot from an External USB Drive? Or are FireWire Drives required? Thanks!

Yes, you can install on an external drive and boot the Mac. I do it all the time.
I'm not 100% sure whether the same drive can boot PPC and Intel Macs -- I don't think so because PPC macs require Mac formatting and Intel Macs require GPT formatting to boot.
Intel Macs can boot off both USB and Firewire external drives. PPC Macs can only boot off Firewire external drives. In any case, Firewire is better as it's quite a bit faster.

Is it possible to install and run Windows Server 2008 on a Mac Mini Server in a Virtual Machine software like Parallels

I am wondering if it is possible to install and run Windows Server 2008 on a Mac Mini Server as a VM as my main application uses Windows VisualBasic and Fox Pro and requires a Static IP to connect to it, My other offices connects to Windows Server via RDP.
Basically I am researching a Server for the same purpose and since Mac Mini and OsX both are robust in nature it can fit the bill if every thing work fine.
Thanks

From the Parallels website:
32-bit Operating Systems
Windows 8 with: Windows 8, 8.1 (when available)
Windows 7 SP1
Windows Vista SP0, SP1, SP2
Windows Server 2008 R2, SP2, SP1, SP0
64-bit Operating Systems
Windows 8
Windows 7 SP1
Windows Vista SP0, SP1, SP2
Windows Server 2012
Windows Server 2008 R2, SP2, SP1, SP0
I do suggest that you upgrade RAM to at least 8gig
if you haven't already.
FWIW, I currently use Win8/64 bit with Parallels on a 2011 Mini Server
using the windows environment for engineering applications and have
had no issues. I am running Mountain Lion but do not have the
Server app installed.

Is it possible to install Lion client on to a Mac mini server?

After seeing benchmark tests on the new Mac mini, the Mac mini server with the i7 processor is obviously much faster. But would there be any issue prohibiting the Lion client from installing on the Mac mini server instead of Lion server?

I'm afraid it's not possible. Or at least not easily. I've spent the last few days trying to do exactly that, as Lion Server doesn't seem to be able to sleep automatically unlike the client. I've followed all the Apple advice on how to 'remove' the Server components, but it's clear looking at a process list that there's still a huge amount of server stuff still there.
If you try to install a retail copy of Lion on the new hardware including 2011 Mini, it will refuse to boot from it - this is a deliberate and in my book completely unnecessary and unreasonable restriction by Apple.
And if you try to re-install Lion using Apple's internet recovery it gives you no choice which you get - it uses your machine details to decide unilaterally that it will reinstall Lion Server as that's what came with the machine.
The only final thing that MIGHT work - and I haven't tried yet - is to find a mate with a new 2011 Mini or Air, use that to do an internet recovery clean install to an external disk drive, then clone that clean install onto the Mini server. If that works, great, but why oh why did an otherwise excellent company like Apple make this so much harder than it was on ANY of their older hardware? It makes no sense at all. Someone should be fired for this nonsense.

Parallels 5 will not work in Lion. You must upgrade to Parallels 6.

I installed CS3 Design premium upgrade yesterday onto my new mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.1. You gave me a new serial number. I have been able to open Photoshop, Bridge, Dreamweaver and Flash. The Illustrator, Indesign and Acrobat applications are not in my applications folder although there are folders in there with those names containing associated items. How can this have happened and what can I do?

Janetc72338130 what happens if you try to reinstall Illustrator CS3, InDesign CS3, and Acrobat? What version of Acrobat are you installing?
