Transferring adobe master collection to a new computer

I am trying to move my Adobe Master Suite collection to my new mac and it won't allow me to.

It is not clear what you are trying to do nor what problem you are encountering in trying to do it.  If you really mean you are trying to transfer applications from one machine to another that will not work.  Adobe software needs to be installed using installation files.
If you need to you can download the files thru the following page - or you might find the download available thru your Adobe account online.  Download and Installation Help - https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install.html
If you continue to have the problem try to explain more about what you are doing and what is happening that you describe as "it won't allow me to"

  • Installing updated Master Collection on a new computer

    I started with Master Collection 3 and eventually updated to version 5. I am planning on buying a new computer with Windows 7 (current is Windows XP.) Would I be able to reinstall my Master Collection on the new computer with no problems from Adobe?
    Thanks,
    Shab

    Thank you Hunt and all others who helped. All the information given to me
    was correct and identical from all individuals and the official document
    below from Adobe confirms it. It was not a matter of trust or otherwise, but
    I needed to see it in black and white before plunging into buying a new
    expensive computer, which now I can do. Here is a copy of the relevant
    information of the License agreement in regards to the issue discussed:
    2.5 Portable or Home Computer Use. Subject to the important restrictions set
    forth in Section 2.6, the
    primary user of the Computer on which the Software is installed under
    Section 2.2 (“Primary User”) may
    install a second copy of the Software for his or her exclusive use on either
    a portable Computer or a
    Computer located at his or her home, provided that the Software on the
    portable or home Computer is not
    used at the same time as the Software on the primary Computer.
    By the way, one of the main reasons for buying a new computer is because my
    Windows XP does not support Premiere and After Effects version 5.0, so it's
    time to upgrade to a new machine with Windows 7 and faster processor.
    Thanks again,
    Shab

    Hello guys..does anybody know how to install and use adobe master collection with the new lion?
    I need to use Flash and illustratore, but apparently those programmes are incompatible with the new operative sistem...
    I am a new mac users and I'd like to know if there are other similar programmes I can use with lion!

    well dude I can only let you know that as I work with those programme I don't have to pay for it is my company that pays the programme I whant to use( that's why I was asking if there where other programmes ..that I could use with lion insted that Illustrator and Flash!)..I know Adobe since 2005 and I can say that Adobs products are very good...I think that if it's an Adobe probleme or fault ..they will solve it very soon...but unfortunally I have the impression that after Jobs passed away Appel decided to change politics..and everything started to go very bad! (see FCP X)..
    good luck with apple dude..
    Where is the Apple problem? I have CS4 and CS5 running perfectly fine on my Macbook Pro. Installed 5 after Lion upgrade. Worth every cent. Adobe did have some catching up to do with Lion but with the CS5.5 update all runs fine. But not yours. So it is a problem with the Lion OS? You say you have been with Adobe since 2005. So you would be aware of all the other issues that Adobe had catching up with past Oss in Mac and Windows then. They get it right, but it is up to them. It is not up to Apple, nor Microsoft for that matter, to run around and check that every software developer in the world is running their business properly.
    And what has politics got to do with anything. Some people just have to blame Software for their poor Hardware maintainence of failure of the same.
    <The only think I can really do is to go back on my old windows...give back this orrible lap top and ask for my money back!>
    Great suggestion. You should go with that one, but good luck getting a refund.

  • Transferring Adobe Photoshop 7.0 to new computer

    I know, I know.. what I have is a complete dinosaur, but it's exactly what I need for my unique projects.  I'm afraid of learning new tricks with any other version. And, I'm too broke to buy a new one anyway. Now, being as I am, I have lost the disks.  However, I do have my registration number.  Is that enough to somehow put my beloved program on a new computer?
    Thanks

  • Transferring Adobe Audition 3.0 to new computer

    Hi I am still using the old Adobe Audition 3.0 and I now want to transfer it to my new computer running Windows 8.1 Pro. I have the key etc for the purchase. I would think that this isn't compatible with Windows 8.1 so what do I need to do to make the upgrade and transfer possible?

    It probably is compatible. I think others can run it on a Win 8.1 system. However Adobe have discontinued the online activation service for CS2 products including AA3. So your present serial number won't work to re-activate Audition. But see here for a remedy.

  • Adobe Master Collection CS3

    Are Adobe Master Collection CS3 work`s on 64 bit Windows?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the GREAT info!!! Just what was looking for. I probably will go with an HP d5000t since someone else on another post is using one. It is custom built to my specs, can go to 8GB RAM, and support 64 Vista. I want a high powered graphics card, but I worry about power supply.
    As for crashes and other mishaps, I tried to burn a 1-hour DVD out of Encore. It took 2 1/2 hours and got to the very end of the burn process, then froze up. The same thing happened on another computer, so it is software related. Also in Encore, I accidently imported an HD menu (Party Menu HD) into a DV project. From then on it caused numerous crashes "on both PCs". Says it is a corrupted file and wants me to delete it from the project. It will not clear or delete, and even pops up after opening new or archived projects. I finally just got it to burn all the way through after removing a slideshow from the project, but the currupted file is still there even after deleting the 3.0 presets and library folder.
    I have Procoder 3 for batch conversions, which is awesome! It has a plug-in for CS3 Premiere, but I use the standalone as well. I wonder if it's causing any of my issues?
    Premiere seems to work okay. Plays back poor quality un-rendered video. Audio is a big problem in Premiere. Editable multi-knob effects like compressors and EQ dump their presets in the middle of an edit. I guess they're called VST plug-ins? You know, if I tweek the preset values and then try to "reset" back to the original, it will set the knob settings to bizarre values.
    Soundbooth works well, but haven't done too much on it. I hate having to go to another application. I start to lose track of files after they have been extracted from video. I need to come up with a renaming plan. When I try to "Edit Original" in Premiere, a video of still image file, it opens in Windows Media Player instead of the appropriate CS3 app. I don't know how to set that up.
    I don't understand Bridge, although I like that it plays files in its own interface and I can get to tutorial videos. Apart from that, I prefer Windows Explorer for finding and moving files. I have not touched Version Cue from CS2 or CS3.
    I like Encore and find it much more user-friendly than previous CS.
    I opened up After Effects once - and never again, not on this PC. Even a single video file on the timeline, it barely played back - something like a frame a second. I though the computer was going to explode!
    Photoshop seemed okay but I did nothing other than simple fixes to Encore menus. I have not tried to work any other apps because I'm afraid of an urecoverable situation.
    By the way, my "other PC" is a Newtek Tricaster. ALso about 3 years old or more. It seems a little more stable than the Sony VAIO, and a good backup, but I'm taxing it too much with CS3 on top of its own stuff.
    I am looking to sell the Tricaster if anyone is interested. I have no use for it these days.
    I did not originate this post, so forgive me for being so wordy. I did start another thread:

  • Does Adobe Master Collection CS4 work on Quad processors?

    I am trying to buy a new computer (laptop)and I currently own Adobe Master collections CS4 and I would like to know if anyone has installed this on a quad processor and what graphic card will work fine with it? Also what processor speed would I need on a quad processor.
    Thank you.

    neither are much of an upgrade from what you have.
    the new i5/i7 mobile are not all that.
    here are some benchnarks, while for audio they translate to video as well.
    GHz is still king for many things
    http://www.adkproaudio.com/benchmarks.cfm
    the dual core 620m pretty much beat the Q820.
    the older T9600 (same family you have with the P8700) beat them all until the hardest hitting (lower buffer harder hitting)
    only laptop upgrade thats worth it would be a laptop that has a desktop core i7 920 in it.

  • Adobe Master Collection CD Key won't work

    Hello,
    I received my Adobe Master Collection CD Key from my school and it is not working. I inputed my CD Key and it tells me the CD Key is invalid. The professor told me to go to the Adobe Tech Support for help. Could you help me out because I need to use Photoshop etc. ASAP again.
    Thank you.

    Thank you for your reply.
    The removal of Adobe CC was already done when contract with Adobe expired.  Called 800-443 8158 for technical support. Gave them remote access to my computer. We removed a CC version of Adobe Acrobat, Uninstalled Adobe CS6 , while reinstalling CS6 the wireline  to tech support lost the connection (I was cut off). They didn't call me back or even e-mail me. So I am on my own with your help. Already found that Adobe help referencing the CC Cleaner Tool and downloaded the application. Read the instructions but was reluctant to use it lest I have problems with a working version of CS5. Seems that Adobe is so obsessed with getting customers into Creative Cloud that they failed to give instruction for stand alone users in their Creative Cloud dialog box. Just for grins I selected "Have a Different Adobe ID?" option (already established my ID years ago). A new dialog box appears asking for a serial number. Copied and pasted my serial number then I think I got a thank you from Adobe and like magic all my new CS 6 software is now validated and working. Hope this is of help for others who are done with Digital Subscriptions like Adobe Creative Cloud. I hope Adobe will give us stand alone users a break when it comes to technical support. I don't want to be creative in a cloud.

  • Can I run adobe master collection in a windows partition on a basic mbp 13" with only the intel chipset?

    can I run adobe master collection in a windows partition on a basic mbp 13" with only the intel chipset?
    I want to install 16 gb ram but I don't think I can change the lack of video card. I wanted this basic machine because it has fairly long battery life. I don't need or want retina at this time. My model is the mid 2012 model. I am running the adobe collection for mac, I want to run the windows versions. Is it possible? What is the most ram I could access using something like fusion 5, assuming I could get fusion 5 to work? would it refuse to run because of the intel chipset and lack of video card?
    If I'm wrong and there is a way to add a video card to this model, could some version of fusion and windows 7 access more than 2 gb operating ram?
    What  cost would I be incurring, and would it be cheaper to buy a windows laptop with more ram than I could access via a virtual machine?
    I want to work on a client's work in the windows versions of the creative suite, with occasional usage of after effects for windows, and to use some web plug-ins only available in windows versions, and to try some windows-only video and audio software.
    thanks for any suggestions. While many people have told me I can run everything on my macbook, I am concerned about what I think is a limited amount of ram that can be accessed over the virtual machine partition softwares, and I don't know if what I want to attempt is actually possible.
    My mbp os is 10.8.2 on a 2.5 GHz intel core i5 4 gb 1600MHz DDR3 with 500 hard drive. the basic 13" mid 2012 machine.
    I'm hoping to install 16 G of opertating ram to allow more adobe programs to run concurrently- just when I am working on the mac side.
    also, off track but, for years I have wanted a small  machine that is more easily portable than my 15" machines. I have only had this used machine for a few weeks, but already I have been very satisfied and used it for presentations at clients. I don't want an air because I really want the dvd burner and player. No matter what apple says about wireless, there are decades of legacy work stored on optical discs all over the world, and I don't want to be unable to open something at a client's office because I don't have a dvd drive. Additionally, I have very large files I want to transfer via ethernet or firewire so that the transfer will take less time and be more secure than wifi. I resist apple's trend to make every machine a disposable toy that is viable only a year or so. I have read reviews that label the mbp it a poor value compared to the air. If all you need to do is text and communicate via wifi, many devices will sufice, and an air is certainly the most elegant. But what about the cost of large ssd's and protecting the drive against damage from shock? I want to be able to move this thing around and the small size is much safer inside my padded bag when I sit in narrow airplane seats, crowded trains and other congested spaces. I am much more likely to be able to borrow a large screen in a client's office ( with the use of one of the three adapters I had to buy) than to be able to borrow a dvd drive that has drivers for mac os 10.8.2. I suspect this may be the last generation of machines that have optical drives and ethernet, and that was why I purchased it so that I could continue to do work into the next few years. I am impressed by the retina display, but I need long battery life. And as beautiful as the retina display is, it is even more of a problem when trying to cross platform with the windows world. I wish I could infuence apple to do a trial product flow for a machine designed to work with 80% of the business world that uses windows. How spectacular that would be. With all their expertise and adept hardware design, to create a machine that cross platforms better than a windows machine itself works? Now that would be an accomplishment.  Instead of 8 or 9 percent of the total computer sales, why not aim for a higher percentage? Smart devices will keep moving toward portable computers in power, anyway.

    Fusion should work on your machine and if you put 16 GB of RAM in (see http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Apple_MacBook_MacBook_Pro/Upgrade/DDR3_160 0MHz_SDRAM), Fusion can access a good portion of that. Also, in a Virtual Machine, the guest OS is presented with Fusion's video card emulation, not what's in hardware on your Mac. Of course, finding Windows 7 now that Win 8 has been released could take some doing and the Win 8 Pro upgrade price is supposed to jump to $200 the end of the month. Add that to the price of Fusion and the extra RAM and you're beginning to get into the realm of low end real PC's.
    As to cross platform, I assume you're aware of BootCamp (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1461).
