Transferring a Previously Purchased Product to a New Computer without Disk Drive

I've recently upgraded computers from an iMac to a Macbook Pro with Retina (which has no disk drive). I need to transfer my Adobe Photoshop CS5 to my new computer - but have no way of installing it since there is no disk drive. Where can I find a download of Photoshop CS5 so I can complete my transfer?

    if you follow all 7 steps you can dl a trial here:  http://prodesigntools.com/all-adobe-cs5-direct-download-links.html

    and activate with your serial.

    if you have a problem dl'g, you didn't follow all 7 steps.  the most common error involves 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).

    Hi, Thank you this thread has been very helpful. I do have a question about PS Elements 5.0; can I download this the same way and if so will my serial number work?

    Cheers, Darcy

    prodesigntools.com only has PSE downloads back to PSE7 AFAIK.

    I don't know of any links to PSE5.
