Transfer programs to a new mac

I have a macbook from 2007 and i also have adobe master colection CS5 on my laptop, I will be buying a new macbook pro tommorow and need to know how to transfer my programs to my new laptop. I do not have the disk.

CS5 is not 100% Lion compatible.
See the tips here on upgrading:
Lion upgrade questions
Unfortunately you are stuck with whatever Lion brings you when you get a new machine, unless you install Windows on it.  But then you have to deal with the security of Windows.  Hold on to your old machine as long as it takes to ensure all the functions you need are usable.
Only get rid of the old one when you have done that, and followed these steps*:

    HI G.T.Morgan,
    Can you please share the error message that you are getting ? Are you transfering the data using Time Machine or any third party Back up tool ? if yes , kindly not use that , as that could cause Adobe Softwares not to work . If you wish to download CS5 , kindly use the following link to download and install it directly on to your new machine .
    Download CS5 products

  • Trying to Transfer Quark to a new Mac

    I have a new Mac. Both the new Mac and old Mac have Lion.
    I am trying to transfer QuarkXpress to the new Mac.
    I get an error message on the new Mac that it can't be done because I don't have permission to read the file.
    On the old Mac I went into Preferences Sharing and selected applications and set it to allow anyone to read and write. When that didn't work I specfically added QuarkXpress and selected it to be read and written by anyone. Still it doens't work.
    I don't have the install disk for Quark...i think it was a download.
    Thanks for any assistance.

    If that is the Power Macintosh 7200 mentioned in another post, remember that CD-RW discs do not work with many older Macs. Use CD-R. Try burning at a low speed.
    The only file system recognised by Macintosh computers running operating systems earlier than 8.1 is HFS (Standard). Do not use HFS+ (Extended) under these circumstances.

    From About Windows Migration Assistant:
    Outlook and Outlook Express contacts, and Windows Contacts from the Contact home directory are transferred to Address Book.
    Migration Assistant will create a new user account and copy things into it.
    If you want to put them into an existing user account, see the Manually Migrating section of Switch 101: Migrate your Windows files or system to your Mac, especialliy the Tip, "export PC contacts to vCards, and import them into your Mac Address Book"

    Use the Mac App Store application and go to the purchased tab, which you'll find at the top of the Mac App Store window.

    Henriette,
    Unless you transfer the entire contents of the old mac book, as in using what is (elsewhere) know as an Image of the entire harddisk from the old one, I am afraid you will have to get rid of everything (whichever way that is possible) and install everything from scratch just as you would without the old one.

  • Transfer setting to a new (Mac) Computer

    Hi. I just got a new Mac. How do I transfer the settings
    (FTP, site locations, etc) from DW on my old computer, to my new
    one? Both versions of DW are the same.
    Thanks!

    Well, it may be too late for this, but the easiest way to set
    up a new mac
    is to just connect it to your old one via FW during set up to
    transfer
    everything.
    Otherwise, you can import/export them individually:

  • Transfer from old to new Mac impossible

    I can't transfer the information from old G5 to a new Mac Pro 8 core. Using T mode, as described, transfer doesn't occur after two hours at all. There is a window "Transferring information" but nothing happens. Using SuperDuper! or Migration Assistant from OS10.4.10 to copy the entire bootable volume from the external HD, is impossible. However, it's possible to copy the old volume to a second, non startup disk, but without libraries, which is worthless.
    Do I have to manually transfer the libraries to the new computer in order to use the old applications? It's going to take for ever. I have no idea why the simple transfer from the old Mac to the new doesn't work as advertise.
    Milan

    When you booted up the new machine the first time, did you use the migration assistant? If not, you might want to try using the Restore disk and restore the Mac Pro to its factory state. Also, take a look at:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25773 and A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs. Those should get you started in the right direction.

  • HT1229 How I can save my EVENTS of IPhoto , from my old Mac ,  in my external disc to transfer it into my new Mac

    Hi, i need help !
    I need to save All my EVENTS of iPhoto in my external hard disk, to transfer the EVENTS to my new Mac .
    Please help! When I try to do it the name as I organice it disappear.
    How can I do it?

    You need to transfer your iPhoto Library intact as a single entity - Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc)  or use an external hard drive formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.

  • What do I need to do to migrate my Creative Cloud programs to my new Mac?

    Recently bought a new Mac. I've migrated everything from my old Mac, but the updater function for Creative Cloud doesn't work and that suggests that there is some kind of failure to transfer the app. Any suggestions?
    My Creative Cloud applications work fine on my new machine, but I'm worried about not being able to install the "critical update" after several weeks of trying.
