Photoshop :: Installing CS6 On Replacement Hard Drive (same MacBook Pro)
Feb 3, 2013
I am running the latest version of CS 6 on an older (2008) 15" Mac Book Pro (OSX 10.8.2), when I'm away on assignment. The original 200GB hard drive needs to be replaced and in preparation I've cloned the complete system onto an external hard drive. I'll be replacing the original hard drive with a larger (1TB) version and can clone everything back onto the newly installed hard drive when it arrives.
But in the "test" I tried today, PS CS6 would not open. How do I go about installing my legally obtained and paid for copy of CS6 onto the new hard drive? Do I de activate the present version, then download a copy to the new hard drive and activate it that way or will that be seen as a third machine, since I have one copy on a desk top and once on the old hard drive in the Mac Book Pro. I just don't want to loose a CS6 activation?

I recently purchased a MACBook Pro laptop (OS X 10.8.3) and want to install the CS4 I purchased several years ago. I have the installation CD but unfortunately, there is no CD/DVD drive on the laptop. How do I install the CS4?

I have just recently replaced the hard drive on my IMac. All files and applications have been re-installed from the time machine back up drive. LR shows up on the dock but when I open it it comes up with:"The Lightroom catalog named “Lightroom 3 Catalog” cannot be opened because another application already has it opened" and "Quit the other copy of Lightroom before trying to launch."
Do I have to reinstall LR3 from the LR DVD? I do not want to use loose the catalog structure and edit info.

My Dell laptop crashed about a year ago, and I was able to have the hard drive backed up to an external. I now need my PhotoShop CS which is on the external hard drive. I need to know how to install PhotoShop, and others in the creative suite, from the external drive. I am having a problem figuring out which files need to be installed first, i.e. .exe and .dll files.
The hard drive is an iMicro 3.5" SATA and IDE HDD
I am currently running Windows Vista, Gateway Notebook
**I can not find the original Creative Suite cds; I think they may have been "accidentally" thrown away by someone other than myself.

I keep trying to install the trial version of Photoshop CS6 on my macbook pro (version 10.6.8) and I was able to download it fine from the download assistant. Once I tried installing it, however I kept coming up with the same error. First it says that the images couldn't be opened because of an invalid checksum, then if I opt to skip that step it comes up with a window letting me install it which I do but once it hits 44% it jumps to 99% and says installation failed due to an inauthentic certificate, saying "Adobe Genuine Software Verification Failure."

As instructed by Adobe I'm working with the original CD to install this to my laptop. It goes up to installing Adobe Air, about half way through the whole installation and then stops. I have tried resetting the permissions- I'm installing in the root user account. This was what Adobe tech had me do to successfully install LightRoom 2 first and then an update. The update was more compatible apparently with Lion.

I moved images from my harddrive to an external drive.
I opened Lightroom.
Noticed there was a question mark by the photo folder I needed.
I synchronized the folders. Nada.
I rememebered I moved the images (first line ^^)
I re-imported the images from the external drive into Lightroom.
These images (other than one that was marked previously with a blue label) look completely untouched - completely original files - even though I spent hours working on them.
I am glad the images weren't deleted BUT re-doing 600 images will be a MAJOR FAIL if I can't figure out how to import the images with the settings / developments I did beforehand.

I have my LR library and catalog on an external hard drive. I have a new iMac with a 3TB hard drive and I want to move the library and catalog from the external drive to the computer's hard drive. Is this something that can be done with a drag and drop?

I transferred my LR3 files from my WD hard drive to my new Lacie Thunderbolt drive and now I can only get the preview and it says the file is missing. Is there a setting I need to change that I am not aware of?

I've purchased the CS6 suite earlier this year and am trying to install it into my second computer. The Adobe creative cloud only offers for CC trials and takes only CC serial numbers. Is there any way I can install my CS6 without having to purchase an external CD drive?

I have a new PC and I am installing PS CS6 and LR5.
I installed it on a different drive because my C drive only has 8gig left (my C drive is an SSD and I only have the OS on it).
Now when I try to open PS, it gives me this error: "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000005)."
LR is now doing the samething (bridge works fine). I tried rebooting, and a few times they both opened right after a reboot. Then I would close them and re-open them and I got the error....now it seems to NOT work every time I try.
Was this because I didn't install it on the C drive?

how I would install the RAW codec for CS3? I looked at the instructions, but I do not have "c:Program FilesCommon FilesAdobePlug-InsCS3File Formats" since my Photoshop is installed on the D Drive. I tried adding the plugin to "D:Program Files (x86)AdobeAdobe Photoshop CS3Plug-InsFile Formats" but that didn't seem to do anything (after closing and reopening Photoshop, it still says that it can't open the file).

I'm putting together a new system partly to run Photoshop, Bridge, and Camera Raw, and I have a question about the optimal hard drive configuration. Software is CS3 running on Windows XP Pro SP2.
With three physical drives, I would probably do it like this:
1. 10k RPM - OS, programs
2. 10k RPM - ?
3. 7.2k RPM - Assets
Where is the best place for the Windows page file and the Photoshop scratch disk?
Or would I be better off going with four (less expensive) 7.2k RPM drives, in which case the OS/programs, page file, scratch disk, and assets could all have their own drives?
Many thanks.

My hard drive crashed last week and a new one was put in. I know you can only re-use a serial number if you deactivate PS on the computer it was previously on...however that is impossible because my hard drive is toast.

PC to Mac Platform Question
this lacie 120gig hd has its own formatting software acording to the lacie.com site.
It will create 32 gig partions in win98se
My question is are these going to be separate disc drives d, e, f, etc
the reason I wonder that is that I am interested in using on of those as a scratch disc
