Lost Disc, Need to Reinstall

Hello,
I am aware I need to download the trial versions of CS5 but once I do so will I be able to use my serial number from the product I purchased to activate? Does it matter that they have already been used for my initial activation? Or do I need to deactivate my software before reinstalling?
Also, I want to reinstall onto Mavericks OS X at some point. Will this be possible with CS5?

Your serial number from your CS5 purchase will work for turning a trial version into a fully activated version.
You are allowed to have the software activated on two machines, the restriction being that it can only be used on one of the machines at any time.  If you do not plan to use the software on the initial machine then it is better to deactivate it so that you have the an available activation should you need it.

    Hi janiscoalson,
    I'm so sorry to hear that! You've landed in the Acrobat.com forum, so I'm not sure what programs you need to reinstall. Please let me know what Adobe software you're dealing with, and I'll get you pointed in the right direction.

  • Lost pages need to reinstall

    Not sure how it happened but I have lost my Pages application. I need to re-install but I do not have
    my install CD any longer. I do have the original document with the activation key for iWorks 09.
    Where can I download outside of the app store so that I don't have to pay for it again?

    OK, thanks. In looking at the receipt this was indeed a download so now I need to find out how to re-download the iworks application. I looked back on my back up drive but the complete download app is not there, probably too old.
    I could not find anywhere in Apple to dowload iworks 09.
    I suppose I will just have to buy it again.

  • Lost Disc -- Need Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional -- Downloadable?

    Greetings All,
    I have a registered copy of Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional and somehow I managed to muck things up when I was transferring my programs to my new MacBook Pro. Now, it doesn't work: complaining of missing components (plugins). I haven't been able to find another downloadable copy of this on the Adobe site.
    Anyone know of a solution???
    Thanks,
    Michael

    If it's a registered copy, you could try Adobe customer support. Other than that, I don't believe that there is any place on the Adobe site where you can download an older version.

    Hi Jana... you can't do it without the Disks, but...
    Might give a try with Applejack...
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19596
    After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
    applejack AUTO
    Then let it do all 5 of it's things.
    At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
    The 5 things it does are...
    Correct any Disk problems.
    Repair Permissions.
    Clear out Cache Files.
    Repair/check several plist files.
    Dump the VM files for a fresh start.

  • I need to reinstall the system software on my older iMac. I have lost the system disks, though... so now what? It had 10.4.

    I need to reinstall the system software on my older iMac. I have lost the system disks, though... so now what? It had 10.4. We moved, and I have looked everywhere. Am I doomed to find a way to buy it? Can taking it into the Apple Store fix it? Will it be expensive THERE? I've already saved all of the files I want off of it.... I just need it to work now.

    You've lost me on why you need to reinstall Tiger, when you already have all the files you wanted (which means Tiger worked perfectly fine). If you want to upgrade to Leopard, that's a different issue: your Mac needs to meet the minimum system requirements for that, which you can easily determine.
    If you just want to get a replacement set of Tiger install discs, you can try calling AppleCare and see if they're able to send you a replacement set, and if not, you'll have to buy a new set yourself. You can get them on eBay, Craigslist, and HardCore Mac (http://store.yahoo.com/hardcoremac/), although they sell it for ridiculous prices.

  • I need to reinstall my original factory disc and reset my computer to the beginning. It currently has lion. Do I need to erase my HD first to clear and make new room for the install disc.

    Prepare Your Mac for Sale
    Boot from the OS X Installer Disc One that came with the computer.  After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.  After DU loads select the startup volume from the left side list then click on the Erase tab.  Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) then click on the Options button.  Select the one pass Zero Data option and click on the OK button.  Then click on the Erase button.
    Note: You can skip the Zero Data option if you are not concerned about removing sensitive personal data from the hard drive.  If you choose to skip this part of the process then it is possible for others to recover data from the hard drive.  The Zero Data procedure will prevent others from getting access to your personal information.
    This process will take 30 minutes to several hours depending upon the size of the hard drive.  After formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Now complete the OS X installation.  At the completion of the installation do not restart the computer.  Instead just shut it off.  The next user will be presented with the Setup Assistant when they turn on the computer just as it would if new out of the box.

  • I've lost the serial # and I need to reinstall, any suggestions?

    I have lost the serial # for my Photoshop Elements 12 and I need to reinstall. Any Suggestions?

    Go to the main page of adobe.com and look for either Sign In or Welcome, < your name >. You should find a record of your serial number there if you work your way through the links. You will need the account associated with the address you used when you installed PSE.

  • I erased all of the loops on my logic pro 9.  Do i need to reinstall all discs, or are there specific discs to install "loops?"

    I erased all of the loops on my logic pro 9.  Do i need to reinstall all discs, or are there specific discs to install "loops?"

    There's a new menu entry in the latest version, allowing you to download all the extra content directly onto your hard drive, without having to keep inserting new DVDs etc. It's 19gb (compressed). If you have a normal/decent internet connection, you could reinstall your loops while you're busy doing something else. Or busy doing nothing.
