Mountain Lion and DISC version of Adobe CS6 Master Collection?

Can Mountain Lion run the DISC version of Adobe CS6 Master Collection?
I have a brand new to me, direct from Apple: June 2012 Refurbished 15.4-inch MacBook Pro 2.6GHz Quad-core Intel i7 with 8GB ram and Superdrive.
Before I purchase the full Adobe Collection ON DISC I want to make sure I can run it on this great new machine.
I have OS X 10.8.2 on the MBP right now. I will upgrade to 10.8.4 soon.
Note: I am upgrading from a Powerbook G4, PowerPC, no intel chip, running OS X 10.4.11 Tiger;

No problem. Never hurts to ask, and it's always nice to know software you depend on is going to work in a new OS before you go through the process of doing so.
I do use it every day in Mountain Lion for our in home business and it actually works better than in Snow Leopard. Well, not better, but noticeably faster when a 64 bit version of CS6 is running on a completely 64 bit OS. You'll notice CS6 snapping open to a ready to use state faster than in previous versions of OS X. Processes and filters also complete faster.
One thing to note though, if you have any third party plug-ins, they may also need to be updated in order to be used under Mountain Lion.

  • Would time machine be able to backup applications I installed and registered such as Adobe CS6 Master collection?

    Hi,
    So I have purchased some seriously expesive software such as Adobe Creative Suite 6 Master Collection and Office Mac Home & Business and would like to know if the time machine backup includes this ****? If not, will there be any backup utility to have the **** saved??
    Thanks,
    Hassan

    Time Machine will backup applications along with your files and the operating system. However some applications have measures built-in that tie the particular installed copy to the particular machine it was originally installed on. You might think therefore that restoring it from the Time Machine backup to the same machine should be straight forward and depending on the application it might be so. However it depends on how it determines if it is the same machine.
    It is unlikely to be as simple as just the serial number of the machine, it might be the hardware UUID of the Mac which I believe would stay the same even after a complete reformat but the UUID might change after a logic board change unlike the serial number. (Apple generally copy the serial number to a new replacement logic board when doing repairs.) It might also be linked to the UUID of the hard disk volume the Application is installed on. This will change each time you format the disk or use a different disk or volume. It could be tied to something else as well.
    You can find the Mac serial number and UUID in System Profiler. You can find the UUID of a volume by using the following command in Terminal.app
    e.g. diskutil info /dev/disk0s2
    For the command above you need to use the numbers that match the volume you are interested in, you can get a list of all the numbers and which volume they correspond to via
    diskutil list
    Of course knowing the UUID numbers does not help if Adobe are indeed using them to tie a particular installed copy since you cannot change the UUID numbers yourself. If you are deliberately planning to swap a drive or do a restore then for such protected applications like those from Adobe and Microsoft it is best to deactivate the installed copy (Adobe also use Product Activation to track installed copies) and then uninstall it. Then like Gary Scotland said, use the installer to reinstall it.
    Note: Even cloning a drive does not preserve the UUID values of a volume.

  • How long i am allowed to use Adobe CS6 Master collection ( Students and Teachers edition ) ?

    I planned to buy Adobe CS6 Master collection ( Students and Teachers Version ) but i have a some confusions.
    1) If i bought the software with an adobe reseller ( a boxed product of adobe master collection CS6 - students and teachers edition ) and obtained a serial number with it, will i be able to use the software for more than one year or three years once it is activated ?

    There is no serial number in retail boxes of S&T, just a verification code and that needs to be properly registered to obtain a serial number - now. After that you can reinstall and reactivate the stuff until the day the Adobe servers fall apart or run out of electricity or Adobe changes their policies.

    Recently when opening up Photoshop, my Adobe CS6 Master Collection pops up saying there's some kind of offer going on the Creative Cloud.  For awhile I was just able to close out of it and go about my business on Photoshop, but now it's not allowing me to open Photoshop unless I sign up/pay.  I'm quite confused?  I really NEED to have access to Photoshop ASAP.

  • Can I still purchase Adobe CS6 Master Collection Student and Teacher Edition?

    Hi I was wonder can I still purchase Adobe CS6 Master Collection Student and Teacher Edition? As I am a student and I don't have the money to purchase the the full software for 2 grand. Also I don't want to get the creative cloud as I don't want to be paying say 250 dollars a year for the software.
    Another question is how many devices can I have the software on? As I have a desktop which I will use for heavy work, and a laptop for light work.

  • Urgent Support Request! - Adobe CS6 Master Collection - Please Insert Disk

    Our company has downloaded Adobe CS6 Master Collection for deployment on our master image this year.
    When attempting to install using the files that we downloaded and ran off the hard drive the set up says "Please Insert Disk", this shouldn't be necessary as I have all the required files to install on my computer already.
    I need a solution quickly to this as I have to get this master image completed and deployed within the next week or two and I have hundreds of machines to do it on.
    It is a clean install and therefore there are no compatibility issues with previous programs, I have tried looking for the installs of the individual programs themselves in the folders to no avail, I had a similar problem with Autodesk products which I solved by installing the trial version then upgrading it to the full version immediately after install. I have not tried that with this problem yet as I'm sure there is a more efficient way to solve the issue. At least I hope there is. Please get back to me as soon as possible with this because I'm required to get this sorted within a very tight deadline.

    Hello Hans,
    Thank you for your rapid response.
    This appears to have solved my issue.
    10 Points to you good sir!

  • Adobe CS6 Master Collection failed to initialize

    I'm trying to install Adobe CS6 Master Collection but this always comes up:
    Adobe Support Advisor no longer exists so I can't download it???
    Anyone know what I can do?

    start at the top and work your way down applying applicable fixes until your problem is resolved.
    if cc (win):  https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/creative-cloud-desktop-application-failed.html
    if, your error is:
    "Installer failed to initialize. File not found." or "Installer failed to initialize. This could be due to missing files."
    first, rename OOBE Folder to OOBE.old.

    if that fails or isn't the exact error you see, uninstall, clean (http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html) and reinstall.
    if you're using a dvd to install:
    copy the disc contents to a desktop directory and install from that directory.
    if you're using a mac:
    1. Try to Create a new user account in Mac with Administrator Priviledges.
    2. Login to the New user, Navigate to Mac HD> Application> Utilities> Adobe Installer folder, Locate products like Adobe Reader, Adobe Flash, Adobe Air and un-install them
    3. Navigate to User Library> Application Support> Adobe and move Adobe to Trash.

    Just looking at that link and I don't think this is my problem. It says:
    Bootstrapper requires certain installer components to be in place to load correctly. Otherwise, it displays the error "Installer failed to initialize. File not found. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem."
    Run the Adobe CS5 Cleaner Tool and remove the product that you are going to install. See Resolve installation problems with CS5 Cleaner Tool | CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3 (cpsid_82947).
    But mine doesn't say "File not found" anywhere in the error message.
    If it helps on my desktop when I try to install it an icon comes up for a second that looks like the dmg mounted icon with the word "core" underneath it.
    I'm on a Mac by the way. Specs are:
