I had a problem recently with my Macbook Pro and have to reinstall the whole system. At the moment Im coping files from the hard drive on an external HD with installed OSx... Can I move the Adobe as well?

I bought the Adobe package when I bought the computer so I dont have the discs...the installed it in the shop where I bought the Macbook..

Its CS4 btw...

How can I move the Adobe programs on external hd...

    no, do not 'move' adobe programs.  reinstall them using the installation files and your serial number.

    Downloads available:

    Download and installation help for Adobe links

    Download and installation help for Prodesigntools links are listed on most linked pages.  They are critical; especially steps 1, 2 and 3.  If you click a link that does not have those steps listed, open a second window using the Lightroom 3 link to see those 'Important Instructions'.
