New computer, trying to re-install cs2 upgrade but not allowing me to select disc to upgrade from

So I've had ps for years and have bought multiple upgrades since ps5. I have all the discs etc....I have recently bought a new pc and have tried to reinstall my cs2. It of course asks for the proof of original purchase by putting in the original ps5 disc. Once I do, it will not allow me to select a file from the disc to use as proof. Heck, not even sure of which file to select if I could, but I remember the last time I installed it on my previous computer, it automatically detected it and allowed me to proceed. I have seen a few things about 64-bit, windows 7 and even mention of a DVD-rom drive. Can someone please tell me it is possible to install this on my computer?! If I have to buy another upgrade I'm going to puke!
Thanks!!
"Isn't the price of technology supposed to go down over time??"

Thanks for the replys. Here are the screens that I am getting. The first screen is fine....I enter the CS2 serial number and then go to the second screen. Here is where it asks for proof of upgrade from v5.0 or later. I have the original 5.0 disc and I put that in. Then I select browse. The third screen pops and no matter what I select, the OK button never becomes usable. It is always grayed out.
Now, I have tried to install 5.0 to my computer but can't get past the Install select screen as seen in sceenshot 4. It won't recognize the exe for some reason. I also tried copying everything to a folder on my harddrive and installing it from there but same thing, it won't get past the install select screen.
it does sound like something to do with the optical drive but not sure what to do..
Thanks for the help!!!

Bought a new computer running windows 8.1 and it will not allow me to install all in one lexmark printer.

I have this lexmark printer running on 3 other computer, windows 7 and windows xp, but in 8.1 I get a message saying incompatable. What is really going on?

Hi,
You can also check the compability printers of Lexmark in following link:

If your printer is not compatible with Windows 8.1, you can try to install the driver in Windows 8.1 compatible mode, otherwise, you have to contact the manufacturer to ask for the update driver for Windows 8.1.

New computer, windows 7 64bit, installed 18.0 but it has never started....it keeps crashing. Help....

I have never been able to start it on this computer, it crashes everytime. I do have crash reports but I don't know what to do with them,

We're sorry to hear that your Firefox seems to be crashing when you open it. Please perform the following steps to give us a crash report ID that helps us find out more about the cause of the crash.
#Press the following shortcut to get a Run window: [Windows] + [R]. This should bring up a window that contains a text field.
#In that text field, enter %APPDATA% and press Enter. An explorer window should open.
#From that explorer window, double-click on the ''Mozilla'' folder, then double-click on ''Firefox'' and then on ''Crash reports''. Double-click on ''submitted''.
#Now, you should see a list of files that contain reports. Go to ''View'' > ''Arrange Icons by'' > ''Modified'' to get the most recent files at the top of the window.
#Open the most recent 5 files with a text editor and copy the IDs.
#Paste each ID into the reply window on the forums.
Thanks in advance!

Please help me install these two products; I prefer stand-alone, rather than a monthly fee. Thank you

when you were install your cs3 you should have been prompted for you serial number. were you?
if not, you probably didn't properly install cs3. copying/migrating/moving etc is problematic.
if yes, did you see any error messages during installation?
if yes, attach a screenshot of the error message.
if not, check you install logs, Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6, CC

New computer - can I re-install Lightroom?

I purchased Lightroom 3 for my old computer - I've now upgraded to a new computer - and want to install my copy of lightroom on the new one - how do I do this?

Which operating system? I assume you've still got your valid serial number.
Download Lightroom 3.3 from Adobe.com

Having a problem with noises and mouse jumping, tried to reinstall and computer will not allow me to select the correct install icon. Sends me to xcode install

my kids computer began acting up this spring...so I shut it down.
Would not stay turned off, various noises almost continually, jumping highlights, etc.
Decided to reinstall os x snow leopard. insert disc and icon appears. then 3 icons with x in a column.
automatically highlights middle icon and will not allow me to select one above. Says install xcode.
not what i want to do.
any help?

What model iMac do you have?
What version of Mac OS is it running? If you don't know, try to give approximations on when it was set up and whether it was ever updated so we can take our best guess.
How are you trying to boot from the install disc? Your description of 3 icons with x in a column' leads me to believe that you aren't booting from the install disc, but rather you are inserting the disc after booting from the OS that is installed on the hard drive. If that is what is happening you'll see something like this, although it will vary depending on the actual version of the Install Disc that you have and how you've chosen to view the files (icon, list, column, etc).
What happens if you restart the system with the Install Disc inserted, then quickly hold down the 'c' key so that the system attempts to boot from the Install Disc. Do you still experience the same issue?

I wiped my ipod classic and then my computer crashed, so i no longer have the songs i purchsed from itunes on my ipod or computer! I have a new computer now with itunes installed, can I get the songs purchased previously from itunes somehow?

I wiped my ipod classic and then my computer crashed, so i no longer have the songs i purchsed from itunes on my ipod or computer! I have a new computer now with itunes installed, can I get the songs purchased previously from itunes somehow?

Yes, you can!(:
STEP 1: Open iTunes
STEP 2: Navigate to the "iTunes Store". It can be found under the "STORE" tab.
STEP 3: On the right side of the store there should be a "Quick Links" Section. Click on the "Purchased" link.
STEP 4: Navigate to the "Music" tab and click on "All Songs". Then at the bottom of the screen there will be a button that says "Download All". Click the button and your songs will be begin downloading!
NOTE: This will only work with songs that you bought from the iTunes store, if you imported them from a CD, you will have to do it again.
NOTE: You can also do this with Apps, Movies, TV Shows, and Books.
NOTE: You may have to sign in with your Apple ID to verify the download.
Hope this helped! Enjoy your music!(:

I've just got a new computer does any one know how to transfer my song to my new computer. I've installed itunes but can't seem to transfer the songs.

you can use home sharing.
or, assuming you have all your media files in the default location, copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music or media folder) from the old to the exact same location on the new machine.
you can either use your network or an external HD for that.

I have a new computer. I've installed iTunes. I don't want to lose the calendar and contact data nor the apps currently on my iPod Touch. Will that happen when I sync?

I don't think so. When you open iTunes, go to "Store" on the top and click "Authorize this Computer." Type in your email and pass, and click authorize. Then, when you connect you iPod for the first time, it should tell you "this iPod is synced with another computer, blah blah." It should give you the option to either "Erase and Sync," or "Transfer Purchases." Click "Transfer Purchases and your content should go into your new iTunes.
If this doesn't work and you still have your old computer there's another thing you can do. I know this works on windows, but I'm not sure how to do it on a Mac, maybe someone can offer some help. Assuming you have Windows, go to Start>Music>iTunes Media and you should see Music, Apps, Movies, etc. This is all the stuff in your iTunes. If you have an external hard drive or your iTunes library is small in terms of file size, you can do this in one go. Transfer the content (as much as you can fit at one time) onto the external storage. Then, put that content on your new computer on the desktop or somewhere where you can find it again. Open iTunes, and folder by folder highlight everything in the folder and drag it into the iTunes library. It should say "importing (content)" or something and then it should be in your library. If you look in your Music folder again, there should now be another "iTunes" folder there with all of your content back in it.
Hope one if these options works for you. Best of luck!

I downloaded Elements 11 to my laptop about 3 years ago and now purchased a new computer and need to install it. How do I install Elements without purchasing it again?

I have Elements pulled up on my old computer, can I find it in the program?
No but if your old computer runs Windows then you can use the free Belarc Advisor software to extract the serial number from inside the computer.
Belarc Advisor - Free Personal PC Audit, for software, hardware and security configuration information on your computer.…
Tip for future reference: when buying software, always keep your serial numbers safe and handy. Don't rely on websites, the Cloud or anyone else to retrieve them for you when you need them most. They are the single most important thing you get when you buy software and they are unique to you personally.
You can download software installers from the web any time but, without your unique serial number, you'll be stuck with using the software in trial mode.
