Trying to install CS5.5 with no CD

I downloaded two files (7z and exe) because I lost my cd for CS5. When I open the .exe nothing happens. It says extracting files but no new window opens prompting to install CS5 or anything. What do I do  now?
I have the product key and serial number

Well thats primarily my issue with Adobe as a whole. I was chatting with support (horrible customer service) to get (this far) to the download. I saved the two files to a new folder but as above , and like you said, it never says where I am extracting to. I would like if Adobe had these download file open and say= thank you for your purchase we are prepairing to install CS5.5,, hahaha! I thought maybe the .exe file would have instructions.
Im not too computer savvy that is why I posted this issue

    I am trying to install CS5 and I am having trouble, it seems to be hanging with 1 second remaining, what should I do next?

  • Trying to install Windows 7 with Bootcamp on my Macbook with a faulty CD drive

    I am trying to install Windows 7 with Bootcamp on my Macbook A1278 (OS 10.6.8) with a faulty CD drive (CDs and DVDs get stuck in it and I had to get it removed in an Apple store, so I don't want to use it anymore). I have got a licence for the product but I am only in possession of the ISO, is there any way to install it using a USB stick?
    I don't have many options while launching Bootcamp, only
    "Download the Windows support software for this Mac" but when I try I get a message explaining me that the download could not continue as the software is not available,
    or
    "I have the Mac OS X installation disc [...]" but obviously I can't use my CD drive so this is not an option. I tried it anyway and I created a Windows partition but when asked to "start the Windows installer", I can only continue by insering a CD.
    I tried to use a USB stick and added the ISO on it but nothing has changed.
    How can I install my copy on Windows?...

    BobTheFisherman > Hem, yeah, that is stating the problem and not working toward resolving it.
    Turbostar > I checked the link and it seems to be relating to the first video I have seen on the subject. I tried to install Tuxera then to work with rEFIt, but I did not get any result yet (I don't know if I am doing something wrong during the USB writing process as many different ways are explained on different websites).
    So far my last try was to launch Windows 7 USB DVD Download Tool on VMware Fusion but it the only disk shown is A:\ Removable disk (not the name of my USB) and it is stated that the disk is being used by another program, even though it's not open on the Mac side.
    Some websites are advising to write the copy of windows on a USB via a PC and then launch it on the Macbook, so I might try that in the next few days. I will keep you updated.
    If anyone has another option I might not have think about, or an advice on how to efficiently create a bootable Windows setup USB with my Mac, please let me know!

    I take that to mean you never deactivated the 2 old machines.  So you're stuck.  You need to contact customer care via online Chat.

  • Trying to install CS5.5 web premium on a new Windows 8 computer

    I am trying to install CS5.5 web premium on a new Windows 8 computer. I had installed it before but Illustrator would not run. I tried reinstalling just Illustrator that did not work. So I uninstalled the whole suite, and planned to reinstall the whole thing. But I get "Installer failed to initialize. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem." So I download ASA, and try to run the .exe and nothing happens.

    Run the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool, then try again. Also check this:

    Trying to install Lightroom 5 with CC but getting error code 5 on initial startup of Lightroom. Have uninstalled all adobe products including Creative Cloud CC.
    Followed the instructions on the forum by using the CC Cleaner App for OSX. Have restarted a number of times and even tried using disk utility to fix any permission probs. Still no luck.
    The problem started happening from upgrading the previous version of Lightroom to the most up to date version. Im hoping someone can help me with any ideas. Thanks heaps.

    Ended up fixing the problem after finding no answers. Deleted the following file

    Can you attach a screenshot or link to the instructions you are following?
    You are on the 3.6 release and Firefox 7.0.1 is out. You can download and install the latest release from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ if you would like to update now. The 3.6 version will be maintained for a while longer, but you should update when you can.

  • Trying to install cs5.5 onto new pc, have old serial number...

    trying to install cs5.5 onto new pc, have old serial number... but can not find how I even start process. Yes, it is installed on a MAC, where I still want access.

    You cannot install your Mac license on a PC. Serial numbers are platform specific. There's no way around that.
