Problems downloading CS5 on new laptop

After buying a new laptop, an Apple support person helped me migrate all files from old MacBook Pro including CS5. However, these Adobe files are corrupted and when trying to open Photoshop, I got this message: “Some of the application components are missing from the Application directory, Please reinstall the application”. In order to download onto my new MacBook Pro, I contacted Adobe support to get my details changed from Canada (where I was when I bought it) to the UK, and I have just spent several hours downloading CS5 onto my laptop. However, the old CS5 has not been replaced, and I cannot find where the new version has been stored. What should I do? Do I need to uninstall corrupted CS5 and download again?

Adobe products have to be installed, not migrated/transfered, primarily due to being them associated with the machine during installation. If you migrate them you lose that association.
What you should probably try doing is to first use the Creative Suite Cleaner tool to remove CS5 from the machine, and then install CS5 again.

Why are you "downloading" if you have the CD?

Problem moving CS5 to new computer

I am trying to move my CS5 to my new laptop. The original media was on discs, and the new computer does not have a disc drive. I downloaded the direct download from the Adobe site, but it does not accept the original serial number. Does this have anything to do with it being an Education Edition? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

No, that didn't actually solve my problem, but it did lead me to compare files from iPod and my computer. I discovered that the iTunes Library file that was on my new computer was much smaller than the one on my iPod, so I simply recopied the entire iTunes folder from my iPod and voila! there was all of my music in iTunes on my new computer! Thanks for guiding the way into the light

I don't have my software disk, How can I download on my new laptop?

Hi,
I have CS5.1 - I originally purchased the hard disk downloadable version. I recently had to replace my laptop due to mechanical ware. So now I would like to reinstall the software package onto my new laptop but I don't have the software disk on hand. Can Adobe help me work around this problem?

Old CS5 On New Laptop?

I bought a new laptop, win7 64 bit, and would like to install my CS5 on it. CS5 was an update, and I have it running now on two machines, one of which has quit working. I have the product key and also the product key from the CS3 that I upgraded from. I cheated on Elements by purchasing EL11 and doing a clean install to replace EL8 on the old machine. Also, I purchased LR4 and did a clean install, upgrading from LR3. I just cannot justify at this time the $199 to upgrade to CS6.

You might have to deactivate any existing CS5 installations before you can actvate one for a new (thrid) machine. If you do not have the original discs for installing CS5 on the new machine, you should be able to acquire a trial version using the link below and use your current serial numbers to activate.

Can't download iTunes onto new laptop

I have just bought a new laptop & have been trying to install iTunes without any success. Every time I try, the install process gets as far as 21% or 15MB and stops. It just doesn't go any further. I have iTunes on my desktop & have never had any problems, although, saying that, my desktop runs on XP - my laptop is Vista. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I NEED to have it on both!!! BTW, I have tried disabling my firewall, just while it installs, but this doesn't help.

To save messing around, how about downloading the latest iTunes on your desktop, then copying it across to you laptop via a memory stick or network connection?

Make sure you select save when downloading.

My computer died, trying to download CS5 onto new computer. It is not accepting my serial no.

I had photoshop on my computer which is now completely dead. Plus I have photoshop on one other computer.
I am not able to get my serial no. to be accepted on my download from the following site.
https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-product-downloads.html
here I found 2 files that I was to download. I was told by the forum that I should put these into a single file and click on the exec. file to get it started. This worked. However, I could not find the photoshop cs5 that I am familiar with. Because I wasn't able to get my serial no. to work, I signed up for the trial but it didn't have all the range of tools and the program looked unfamiliar.. So my other question is: which file was I supposed to download in order to get it to work?
in summary:
1.serial no. won't work on the download
2.my new computer doesn't have a dvd writer and Download looks unfamiliar with only a few tools.
If I purchase a DVD writer, would my disc be usable with the serial no.?
thanks in advance for any help!

Thank you for your reply. It is helpful, but not completely so. I was super careful with the download, but not being a computer person,there was not enough information at a beginner level. After spending literally hours with various chat people, I was given a link. It was indistinct and the woman narrating it was vague in her communication. It didn't help or cast light on my issue. In the end I bought a dvd writer. Wish I had done this earlier on as in no time my disc was installed.

Problems Downloading CS5 on to Mac Mavericks. I already own CS5

I purchased CS 5.5 in 2012 in disc format. My old MACbook died. I now need to download this suite /pro gram on my NEW MACbook system OSX 10.9 (Mavericks). My new MAB computer DOES NOT HAVE A DISC DRIVE so this is why I need to download electronically from Adobe online asap.I have been trying for over a week, been on Adobe and MAC discussion boards, and was on Adobe's chatline for HOURS and no one (some language barriers were problematic) — no one else in regular chat-mode could help. PLeeeese help, I am desperate!!!!
This should be so easy, no?
FYI, I just remembered , about a week ago I finally found a download link but it came up with an error the 5x i tried ownloading...

Your subject header says you own CS5 but your message says CS5.5 so I assume you really want CS5.5.
Download CS5.5 from http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs5-5-direct-download-links.html
Follow the Very Important Instructions on that page first BEFORE you click the download links.

Very slow download speeds with new laptop with windows seven- WRT160N Router

Just bought a new Laptop with windows 7 and of course wireless. Download speeds are horrible (0.2 mbs) and upload speeds are normal for me ( 8mbs) Have a wrt160N Wire less router. Older laptop and desktop work fine with normal( around (8mbs) downloads and uploads.
How do I fix this?

Do you have QOS enabled in your router? Did you try plugging the win7 laptop directly and check the speed?
