Installing the Adobe Creative Suite on your computer is very easy and only takes a few minutes of your time.
- Once you’ve downloaded or obtained your program discs, you can start the installation process.
For PC: Double-click on the .EXE file (downloaded version) tilted Setup.exe or Place the first disc in your CD-ROM/DVD drive (disc version). Once you’ve done this, you will be greeted with a screen prompting you to install the Creative Suite.
For MAC: Double-click on the file (downloaded version) tilted Setup.tar.gz or place the first disc in your CD-ROM/DVD drive (disc version). Once you’ve done this, you will be greeted with a screen prompting you to install the Creative Suite. -
Step 2
To complete your installation, follow the on screen instructions. You will be prompted to select where (which hard drive/folder) you would like the software to be installed. Also, you will be given the choice of what components you wish to install. Keep in mind that the Creative Suite is made up of several different pieces of software. If you do not require a program, it is recommended that you do not install it to save disk space.

Step 3
Once the installation is complete, you will be given the options to register and activate your software. To avoid any issues with functionality, it is recommended that you complete this information now. To locate your activation serial key, look on the packaging of the product. For digital downloads, you should have been e-mailed a code from Adobe. Make sure to keep this code confidential, as it ensures that your copy is an original and not pirated.

Step 4
After you have completed your registration, you’re all set. The programs are now installed on your system and ready to be used.
-
Keep your serial code secret. It is binded to your software, and is very difficult to replace.
-
Do not install pirated software. Adobe has several tools in place to prevent this.
