Need help finding Elements 8 Download (disc isn't working)

I have my disc and box with serial number on it. I called adobe and they told me to get a replacement disc from best buy since the disc isn't being read by my computer. There's no scratches on it at all. I literally downloaded it once, just a few months over a year ago and got a virus, where a friend wiped the hard drive. Now I'm trying to reinstall and it doesn't seem to want to read the disc. I don't know what to do. Best Buy says they can't because elements 9 is out now..so i'm supposed to just go buy that now? Please help!!
I do have my serial number so i don't need that. i just need the program! Thanks

Let's try this again going a slightly different route and with images. It sounds like you go lost along the way.
Judging from your last post your computer is Windows. I wasn't sure whether you were on Windows or a Mac.
1. First insert your disc into the DVD drive of your computer. Don't worry about the installation dialog coming up at this point.
2. Look on your desktop for the icon that is a computer and says "Computer" if on Vista or Windows7. If on XP, the icon will say "My Computer".
3. Click the "Computer" icon by pressing the button on the right hand side of your mouse. This will bring up the following menu:
4. You can either click open or explore from the context menu.
After you click either open or explore,  you should see your drives including any media discs loaded in the drives.
5. Right click the drive showing PSE 8 loaded. After you right click (click drive with your mouse's right hand side button) you will get a context menu like I have in my screen capture below. Select either Open or Explore from the menu.
Above I have PSE 2 loaded in my DVD/CD-RW Drive (E). It also shows the context menu that comes up when the drive loaded with PSE is clicked with my right hand mouse button.
Above shows the folder view of the contents that reside on my PSE 2 Disc. You should see something similar when you view your PSE 8 disc in folder view.
Having went through the above steps, is the folder view of your DVD blank or do you have files and folders?

    I need help finding phots just downloaded to lightroom...they only show up in "prevoious downloads" and not in a folder in my pictures.  what can I do to correct this?

    Also, please be aware that Lightroom is not a file browser like your operating system Finder or Explorer is. If the photos are not in the folder you expected them to be in, it is because you (accidentally) imported them into a different folder.

  • Can you help with Elements 8 download that has never worked properly?

    As I am beginning to use the program, I can tell it has several issues and wonder how I go about getting a new download of this or a hard copy. 

    Most recent version of Photoshop Elements is #11.
    My preference is to buy a boxed version so that I have a disk. Of course, if your computer does not have a CD/DVD drive, you will need to download..

  • HT5622 I need help finding a movie that I downloaded, can anyone help me with this?

    Hello, I need help finding a movie that I downloaded, can anyone help me with this?

    If you downloaded it to your iTunes library it will be in the Movies folder.  If you downloaded it to an iOS device you will find it in the Videos app.  This explains how to redownload previously purchased videos (available in some locations as long as the studio permits it): http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12283.

    hello all,
    please help me!

    rd

    the 7 steps are needed so you can successfully download.  if you downloaded what you wanted, you followed the directions correctly.
    just make sure your serial number is for the downloaded program.  here's some help with serial numbers, http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html
    if you're certain you're using the correct serial number for the correct product and it still fails, contact adobe support: http://www.adobe.com/support/chat/ivrchat.html

  • HT1349 I need help finding an old library that itunes states my ipod is already linked to

    I need help finding an old library that it states my ipod is already linked to.  My computer recently had a terrible virus and needed to be wiped clean.  I had to redownload itunes and I bought several songs.  I want to add them to my old library because I had several cd's that I had uploaded.  Is there a way to find that old library and combine them without having to erase all the songs that are currently on my ipod???  Thanks

    Umm.  If you wiped the hard drive, then all old libraries are gone unless you have them on backup.

  • Need help finding a driver for my hp webcam . My computer say I dont have a camera but I do.

    Need help finding my camera[webcam] on my computor.

    Can you provide us with your computer model number?  Take a look in Device Manager to see if there is an Imaging Devices group that includes the webcam.  If not, is there an Unknown Device listed?  This would indicate that your webcam is detected, but there is no driver installed.  We can help you find the correct driver if that is the case.  Let's start with the computer model number.  Thanks.
