    Hope i din't get a virus.. How can I tel if I did?


    Donna, did you use the process listed in Learn how to download your Adobe Creative Cloud apps to download and install Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator CC?

    To check the computer for viruses or malware you will want to use your installed security software.  If you do not already have an anti-virus software title installed then I would recommend checking with your ISP before purchasing any software.  Many ISPs will bundle anti-virus and anti-malware software as part of their Internet service offering.

    Finally, if you want to wipe the Mac, and verify that no viruses or malware is installed, then Apple has a support document at How to use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac - Apple Support which discusses the process.

    Donna Bell to install Creative Suite 3 you will need to go to Download Adobe Creative Suite 3 products and enter your serial number for CS3 Design Premium.  You will then be taken to a page where you can download a non-activating version of Creative Suite 3.  Please make sure to use the new serial number from the page when installing the software.

    I just bought a new mac because I was running out of space on my old computer. I went in on adobe web site to find out how to uninstall. they gave directions but it took over 4 hours to navigate their web site to find out what to do . I was given a new serial numer which would put up  my adobe suite on my new computer but there is no place to do that . I've been tring for the last 6 hours to figure out how to reinstall my adobe suite.. I installed something that said I have to install every 5 days.. OMG what was that?  I'm in tears.
