Failed to install CS3 on the new laptop

I recently bought a new Dell laptop to replace the old. For some reason, my CS3 will not install on the new computer. There was no window message indicating a problem. So, what'S the problem?

You probably need to install using a compatibility mode, and it is always possible CS3 is too old to be compatible with your new operating system, whatever it is.

  • Re-installing Lightroom on the new laptop, keywords from images! (I think!)

    Hello

    I use Lightroom 5.2

    I spent several days it is has updated all of my keywords in LR using my old laptop. I have about 8 000 image files, mainly RAW CR2 files, all recorded on a disc toshiba external hard.

    Now I have a new laptop and reinstalled LR on this new laptop computer. I'm starting to import all image files in LR since the external hard drive, but I noticed that there are no keywords in the version of LR installed on the new laptop.

    I perhaps foolishly assumed that when I keyworded all files first time round the metadata would be saved in the CR2 file itself, such that it would be accessible by other applications, or, in this case, by a version of LR installed on a different laptop. This doesn't seem to be the case.

    I'm doing something wrong? Are there key words, but I can't see them somehow?

    I really don't go back through 8000 files and re - keyword all, it took me days!

    If all this fails, can I go back to the version of LR on my old laptop (which I still have) and somehow join keywords in files on a more permanent basis so that they are recognized by my new laptop, or are what I'd need to set it as default when first, I realized the keywording exercise?

    Thank you very much
    Tom

    But it's a brand new version/installation of LR. Then it will be a brand-new photo as much as the new version of LR is concerned, used? How they see the before image file?

    Your keywords are in Lightroom, more precisely, they are in the catalog file. You must transfer the catalog file, as described in the link I provided. Import photos is not the way to do it.

    I tried to work through the tutorial you linked to, but I'm stuck at step 4: transfer. For example, he says to transfer the catalog, etc.. But I'm not transfer anything I am? I just have to say the new version of LR where to look to find image files...

    You MUST copy the file from the catalog to the new computer. Then, although it is a new installation of Lightroom, you MUST use your existing keywords with catalog. That's the key, you MUST use the existing catalog file.

  • Installed CC on the new laptop, why am I allowed only trial version?

    Initially, I bought the CC and installed on a Macbook pro. Now, I bought a new Macbook pro 2014 and installed CC, but it only allows me to run the trial version. As far as I know, CC allows the software to be installed on both machines at the same time and since I'm logged in with my Adobe ID on the new laptop, it should recognize that I have a license, or not?

    What can I do to change trial version of standard license?

    Thanks for the confirmation of Martin. I see that you have two different accounts with Adobe. This account for Kingdom studio has your subscription. I would ask you please use this e-mail address to activate the product on the target computer.

  • How to re - install CS3 on the new MacBook Pro? [was: ADOBE REFUSES to HELP ME]

    I downloaded their software, and I received an error saying that I need to contact Adobe.  So I do, and they REFUSE to help because my software is not the latest version.  How to place a call to them?

    John, thank you very much for your answer.

    It's Adobe CS3 and I reinstall on a new Macbook Pro.  I had a backup with Time Machine and I have restored my files to the new laptop. Of course due to conflicts of serial number I had to reinstall my software. The Macbook Pro is more established in the Super Drive so I downloaded the software out of the Adobe site. I uninstalled and tried to reinstall, but received a message on there is a problem and to contact customer support.  I did, through their chat system and I was told that they couldn't help me because it was CS3.

    After uninstall and restart several times I finally solved what was the error.  I apologize for the lengthy response, but it wanted to be in a forum where someone like me goes looking for answers of self-handling.  Thank you once again!

  • Cannot save CS3 on the new laptop computer

    I have my cell die. Ld office expired last year and I called Adobe to deliver anything that prevents me to install again and they said they did. I never had time to installation on the new tower because I used the portable more. Now, the laptop is dead. So I buy a new laptop brilliant and install CS3 on it and that's... CS3 will not fit. Made a post that I have an answer telling me to use a cleaner program. I installed a new installation on a new laptop. I had no problem installing office, but CS3 not so much. I just decided that adobe doesn't care once they have your money. If I install later and more I bet I could get help, but I don't need. I am retired and just a few things. My wife is always using PageMaker and he does what she wants, so it is not updated. I don't ' want or need State of the art, I want just that CS3 to work on my new laptop windows 7. Yes, you can always buy a laptop with a decent OS if you shop at Costco. You can not just get your CS3 to work on it. I guess that the answer will be that I have to pay for the support for using my software. I'm frustrated, will you?

    You shouldn't save CS3 if you have already registered it in the past.  If you mean that you are not able to activate it, then maybe it's something you can help with.  You will need to contact the Adobe Support for help with activation using cat.

    Hello.  I had an Adobe photoshop CS3 on my old Vista laptop.  This computer crashed and now I can't enable it on my new windows 10.  It works very well, but coming to expire in 28 days.  How can I disable it from a laptop computer crashed who no longer lights?  Thanks for the help everyone!

    Hi ramona1962,

    Adobe Photoshop CS 3 is a very old software and the operating system that you are using is the most recent, so there may be compatibility issues that adobe has not tested these applications on newer operating systems.

  • What version of Firefox options do I have to use Firefox on the new laptop running Win 7 64 bit, and how do I move bookmarks current laptop running Firefox 3.5.13 again laptop?

    Currently running on the laptop using Windows XP pro sp3 Firefox 3.5.13 and want to move my favorites to a new laptop. New laptop using Win 7 pro 64 - bit OS. I've read too many conflicting reports on Firefox and Win 7 and Firefox works on a real 64 - bit version. What are my choices for a stable browser for the new laptop and what specific version of Firefox is recommended, and the advantages and disadvantages of this suggestion? (I think we can run Firefox 32-bit version in the 64-bit environment, but which is the best choice?) I have not installed Firefox on the new laptop yet and am eager to dump IE. It is displayed for my old laptop. Thank you...

    Mozilla working on a 64-bit version of Firefox, but it's a way off. Currently, the only release versions are 32-bit, and the next major version will be also only 32 bits.

    I recommend that you install the latest version of publication (3.6.10) available since http://www.mozilla.com/

    To copy bookmarks, follow the procedure described in the article restore bookmarks from a backup or move them to another computer to save a json file, you can import (restore) on the new laptop. You can copy more bookmarks, for details, see back up and restore the information contained in the Firefox profiles and backup - MozillaZine Knowledge Base Profile.
