Reinstall photoshop without cd drive

I migrated to a mac mini and my photoshop 3 says licensing has stopped. So I need to uninstall and reinstall but I no longer have a cd drive. Is there  a solution?

You can most likely download the application to your machine and use your serial number from the disc to activate it.  Whether or not you can download it depends on which version you need.  The following page provides links to download a variety of Adobe software versions.
Download and Installation Help -

You do not need to uninstall... you are allowed to have two activated installations.  If you do not plan to use the one currently installed, the minimum you need to do is deactivate it (choose: Help -> Deactivate)

    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alterhatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

  • How do I reinstall photoshop elements 7 without a CD Drive

    How do I reinstall photoshop elements 7 in my new laptop that has no CD Drive?  Any suggestions on where to find a download?  I have the original software and Serial No.

    Hi,
    Since on http://www.adobe.com/downloads/ there is no link to get the previous version of Photoshop Elements , only you can able to download PSE 11,
    you should have to make a way to get the content of CD into any Remoable drive , or Use external CD drive.
    Except this I am not seeing any anohter way .

  • How do I install Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 on new MacBook Pro without DVD drive?

    I just purchased my first MacBook Pro and am trying to get everything set up and installed. I purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 and retrieved my serial number and have the redemption code -- but I can't figure out how to install Photoshop without a DVD drive. The Photoshop package I purchased only provides DVDs and I don't have a DVD drive. Is there a website I can go to to install Photoshop and enter my serial number or redemption code?

    Have you tried downloading the trial version and using your serial
    number to activate it?
    The trial version is a complete product and can be activated by
    inserting the valid serial number.
    Good luck.

  • Trying to get Photoshop CS4 functional with Mavericks and an Epson 3880 printer. CS4 fails to send a file to the print queue. Have reinstalled the Epson 3880 driver for Mavericks. All looks good but no file is sent.

    rying to get Photoshop CS4 functional with Mavericks and an Epson 3880 printer. CS4 fails to send a file to the print queue. Have reinstalled the Epson 3880 driver for Mavericks. All looks good but no file is sent.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    What EXACT version of Photoshop CS4 are you running?  You should be on Photoshop CS4 v 11.0.2.
    Also run Apple's software update to see whether it offers you the latest Epson update:
    Printer Driver v9.33
    Epson Stylus Pro 3880, Drivers & Downloads - Technical Support - Epson America, Inc.
    MOST IMPORTANTLY:  have Photoshop re-create its own Preferences:
    To re-create the preferences files for Photoshop, start the application while holding down Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS). Then, click Yes to the message, "Delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings file?"
    Note: If this process doesn't work for you while you're using a wireless (Bluetooth) keyboard, attach a wired keyboard and retry.
    Important: If you re-create the preferences by manually deleting the Adobe Photoshop CS6 Settings file, make sure that you only delete that file. If you delete the entire settings folder, you also delete any unsaved actions or presets.
    Reinstalling Photoshop does not remove the preferences file. Before reinstalling Photoshop, re-create your preferences.
    NEW Video! Julieanne Kost created a video that takes you through two ways of resetting your Photoshop preferences. The manual preference file removal method is between 0:00 - 5:05. The keyboard shortcut method is between 5:05 - 8:18. The video is located here:
    How to Reset Photoshop CS6’s Preferences File | The Complete Picture with Julieanne Kost | Adobe TV
    Mac OS
    Important: Apple made the user library folder hidden by default with the release of Mac OS X 10.7. If  you require access to files in the hidden library folder to perform Adobe-related troubleshooting, see How to access hidden user library files.

  • I am reinstalling Photoshop Elements 7 on my computer after my hard drive died.

    I am reinstalling Photoshop Elements 7 on my computer after my hard drive died.  I found a download page on adobe's website for the software and installed.  Install went fine but when I entered the serial number I received from my original e-bay purchase the software said it wasn't valid.

    No, I am using the serial number from the original e-mail that I received when I bought the software.  I don't think I ever registered the serial number, how would I check?

    What version of PS?  If it's CC, just reinstall the CC application manager then PS and sign in.  For an earlier version you will need to call Abobe to have you S/N reset.

  • Recycled my old Mac without deactivating. How to reinstall Photoshop Elements?

    Can someone help me reinstall Photoshop Elements after recycling my old Mac without deactivating?

    The problem was probably caused by migrating pse 8 as adobe applications can never be migrated, they need to be reinstalled from the original disk or download or they won't work right.
    If you look in Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 is there an uninstaller for pse 8?
    If so, try using it and then reinstall pse 8 from your original disk.
    If that doesn't work, then you can try this, but you might end up having to run the adobe creative cloud cleaner and then manually delete all the adobe stuff on your computer and starting over with a fresh install of pse 8.

    I have opened the CC PS CS6 and used the oil paint filter on a photo - no problem. I then opened the new CC Photoshop 2014 and edited a photo - no problem. When I downloaded the CS6 it did give me an additional CS6 Bridge. So far so good, but I will post if I encounter problems.

    Depends on where you got it - if it came on yoru compujter then you need to have accepeted it in the App store - and it will be in your purchases when you log in with the Apple ID that you used to set up your computer - it mahy be hidden - if you do not find it unhide applications in teh App store
