Where can I find a (legal / legit) copy of CS4

I am a corporate Training Manager who is trying to learn new skills on my own, for my own professional development and to create an interactive newsletter for employees at the company I work for. Unfortunately, there is no way I could convince my employer to purchase CS4 for me and I cannot afford to buy it for myself. =( I don't want to be ripped off by someone who might sell me a fake copy. Is there someplace online where I could buy a used copy of CS4 (or InDesign or Framemaker) from someone who has possibly upgraded and just doesn't need their old copy of CS4 or maybe just doesn't use it anymore? In other words, I'm not trying to do anything illegal, I just cannot afford a new copy. It would seem like there would be a legit way to purchase an old copy?

I appreciate the good suggestions that I received in response to my question below. Even thought the cost is extremely high, I MIGHT be able to get this approved as an expense at my job (I'm hoping, but still iffy).
If I am able to get it approved, my question is..... Would I be able to load the software on both my desktop and my laptop?   I typically work on both of my computers (desktop and laptop), depending on where I am and what the project is.
I would hope that I would be allowed to use the same serial # to load the program on both computers without having to worry about doing anything illegal or causing a big flashing warning message or sirens to go off??!   When I purchased Adobe 8 about a year ago, I actually called the Adobe helpline and asked if I was allowed to load it on both computers and the represenative said yes, that the software allowed for a max of 2 different uploads to 2 different computers at the same time.   Do you think this is also the case with CS4 Master Collection?
Last question....... If my request for CS4 gets denied because of the cost, is there such a thing as CS3 (similar to CS4 Master Collection) that is still available to purchase in stores? If so, what is it called?   I glanced through the Adobe site but didn't see anything.   If there is an older CS3 version that includes the various types of applications (including InDesign), what is the specific pkg called?
Thank you for the assistance!

Welcome to the WD Community.
1) I assume I can just hook the unit up via USB to my Mac and use iPartiion to reformat the drives, assuming each of the 4T drives will be seen by iPartition as a separate drive. That much seems straighforward.
Yes, and in case you ipartition dont see the unit properly, you can use the disk utilities on your Mac and you will be able to reformat the unit to make it compatible with your system.
2) Is my next step to reinstall the WD software and how do I do that? I've downloaded the Drive Utilities and Securities install apps - I assume I just run these with the drive still connected and that's all I need to do?
Yes, just run the applications.
3) What about the firmware update for Mac - when should I run that??
Normally, firmware updates are released to fix any issues that you might encounter on the drive. the latest one was released on 9/24/2014 and it fixed an issue with the drive dropping off of the list after system wakes up from standby mode.
5) And what about the "My Book Live Duo Setup" app for Mac - is that for a completely different model? What's the difference between "My Book Live Duo" and "My Book Duo"? It's these little things that I find so confusing.
Those are different units. The MBL Duo is a NAS (Network attached system) and the My Book Duo is a DAS (Direct attached system)
6) Lastly, when I have all the software installed, is that when I follow the procedure described in the Knowledge Base article ID 5724, "How to install a My Book Live or My Book Live Duo on Windows (8, 7, Vista, or XP) or Mac OSX for the first time"? Or is that procedure only for "My Book Live Duo" but not for "My Book Duo"??
That procedure is for the network units, not for your drive.

Where can I find the installer download for Dreamweaver CS4? Need to re-install.

I need to re-install DW CS4 on a new system, but have misplaced the installer. Where can I find this?
Went through tech-support, btw, and was directed here.
Thanks in advance.

if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here: http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html
and activate with your serial number.
if you have a problem downloading, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies.
the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).
failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com

Where can I find a download or disc for CS4?

We have had to restore my computer, so I'm in the process of reloading all of my programs. Unfortunately, I can not find my CS4 disc to reload it-I can't think what might have happened to it, we've looked everywhere! I've tried contacting Adobe, and they said they'd normally replace it but since CS5 came out, they don't have any copies with which to replace it. I am not able to upgrade to 5 right now, and desperately need my program to do my work.
We have CS4 Web Premium for Windows. I have our serial number, I just need a copy of the software. Adobe even recommended to borrow a disc from a friend if we could find it, and reload it with our code. But so far no luck. Is there anywhere I can find a legitimate download or replacement disc?
Thanks so much for any advice/info you can give!

I know...and I specifically asked a few times if there was any place where I could find a download. All I got was the suggestion to find a reseller, or spend 799 to upgrade to CS5. Finally the second lady I talked to suggested borrowing a cd (and come to think of it, maybe she wasn't supposed to do that =)
Only a couple hours left until I can say if it worked!

Sorry I would not know how to score a copy of the Program disc. I would not even trust it if I did.
Photoshop is one of the most pirated software out there and in cases loaded with malware.
Ok then, create a admin account on XP, log in and try running the cd there.

Where can I find a retail copy of MAC OSX Snowleopard, that has all the drivers, for both desktop and Laptops?

Where can I find a retail copy of MAC OSX Snowleopard, that has all the drivers, for both desktop and Laptops?

No. 10.6.3 was the last retail release of Snow Leopard. Download the 10.6.8 Combo updater and put it on a flash drive to make it easier to install the largest part of the update.
Also, don't push the same disk image of SL to your Macs unless they are exactly the same model as it was originally installed on. The wrong hardware drivers will otherwise be in use.

First you'll need to make sure your XP is set up to view hidden files and folders.
1. Open My Computer from the desktop or Start menu.
2. In the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
3. Click the View tab.
4. In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders" make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected.

Now you should be able to track down your backup file at the location in the following document:

Where can I find standalone copy of "Icon Composer"

I am trying to prepare some custom icons for my third party hard drives and need the help of the simple and FREE Apple developer utility known as "Icon composer" (available free as part of a suite of some 40 so-called developer tools that come with APPLE OS install DVDs.
I am looking to download (from WHERE ????) a simple, standalone copy of this little utility without all the hundreds of MEGS of extra baggage of the developer or XCode tools multi-installer on my OS 10.5 install DVD.
I lack the sophistication to find the right installer and am concerned I could inadvertently damage my OS by installing a whole lot of program tools I don't want or understand.
Please, where can I find and download just and only - "ICON COMPOSER" ??? I've searched all over this site and can't find it.

THANK YOU V.K. - Have downloaded Pacifist and will see if it can peer into all those many packages on my optional installs on the DVD. DO YOU KNOW WHICH ( TITLE ?? ) OF THE MANY INSTALLER PACKAGES CONTAINS THE LITTLE ICON COMPOSER APP ????

Syntax errors on LinkedIn - need to copy error console log. Where can I find it?

LinkedIn has been generating multiple compatibility errors since Firefox upgrade to 3.4 and now 3.6.13. I can see the errors in the error console but the console won't let me save or print the full report.
Where can I find this error log file? I've searched in the folders under applications and Mozilla Firefox but don't really know what to look for in that folder. Nothing looked like a .log or error reports of any kind.
Anyone know where to find this file or better yet; how to set up Firefox to have this compatibility go away when on the LinkedIn site?
Thanks!

Where can I find Vista drivers for Satellite Pro L450D?

Hi, can anyone offer any help please?
My toshiba Satellite Pro (Model L450D) came with Win 7 preinstalled. Unfortunately due to virus, I had to format the HDD and reinstall an operating system, but only had a legal copy of Vista. Now Toshiba utilities keeps coming up with a message saying it is blocked at start-up because it is not compatible with this version of Windows (vista).
All the options to download anything for this laptop model is in Win 7, of course. Where can I find everything I need to be compatible with Vista please?
Thanks in advance.

And you think best solution for you is to use Vista or what?
The whole problem is that you didnt follow Toshiba advice and create recovery disc. Can you confirm this?
Using this disc you can have factory settings and Win7 again.
In my opinion Vista is not solution. At first Vista is not supported so if you cannot find Vista stuff on Toshiba download page you will not be able to find it anywhere. Best option for you is to order original Toshiba recovery disc for your machine. You will get Win7 recovery image and you can use it anytime you want.
For order check please https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx
If you have more questions you are welcome.

Where might I find a legal version of Panther?

Hello,
I currently use OS 10.1.5 and I would like to upgrade to Panther. Where could I find a legal version of Panther? (either an upgrade or a full retail - whichever is less) Is an OEM version legal or is it just for computer builders?
Are there any specifics on the label of the OS DVD that I should watch for when searching for a legal version?
How about ebay?
Do you think most of the Panthers on ebay are not copied or should I just avoid ebay for OSes? (I've never bought software on ebay before. )
I am also looking for ilife as well. Is ebay a good place to find such software or should one be cautious for any reasons legal or otherwise?
It would be great if I could find an unopened box of either the Panther upgrade or the full version.
If I can't find Panther I will have to buy Tiger.
Thank you for any suggestions,

You might find a copy at your local Apple dealer,
If not you can for sure find a copy at any of the Certified Apple Reseller.
Just one thing to remember, be sure you get a full retail version and they look
like this.

Fire Fox sent not all the data in text form. Reached only piece of information. Where can I find the cache of sent text?

Fire Fox sent not all the data in text form. Reached only piece of information. Where can I find the cache sent the text?
For example, I posted an article on a news site, but found that only a small part of my article was posted.

I'm not sure whether Firefox saved that information. There is a chance that it is in the session history file, especially if you haven't closed that tab yet. To check that:
Open your currently active Firefox settings folder (AKA your Firefox profile folder) using
Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
Find all files starting with the name sessionstore and copy them to a safe working location (e.g., your documents folder). In order to read a .js file, it is useful to rename it to a .txt file. Or you could drag it to Wordpad or your favorite word processing software.
The script will look somewhat like gibberish, but if you search for a word in your article that doesn't normally appear in web pages, you may be able to find your data.
Any luck?
For the future, you might want to consider this add-on, although I don't know how long it saves data after you submit a form: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/lazarus-form-recovery/].

HT201272 Where can I find the app password saver by yonglin wang. i wanted to restore my iphone and i had purchased this app and it is not anywhere in my purchases to reload. Why is it not on my list of purchases?

Where can I find the app "password Saver" by yonglin wang? while updating my iphone the app was dropped for some reason. I went to reload from my purchased apps and it is not available. The history shows my purchase but I can not find the app to reload. I've lost some critical info and need to retreive if possible. Any suggestions?

You tried what ? If the app is no longer available in the store (can you find it in the main part of the store ?) for re-downloading then you would need to have a copy of it somewhere e.g. on your computer's iTunes, on a backup of your downloads.
