    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.

    Please someone HELP me..I can't reinstall my Adobe CS3 suite and adobe even gave me a new serial number and it gives no directions of what to do. This is so awful.. I'm so upset and in tears. Why does't adobe have a phone number? Why? I paid a lot of $$ for my adobe suite too.  I just can't believe it .

    Does adobe have scams in their web site and are they cheating people out of applications they bought and making everyone  have to pay monthly renting charges for all their Applications? This is just not NICE !


    Sounds as if you did download a scam or a virus. But not from Adobe. You must only use the official download. DON'T USE WEB SEARCH TO FIND CS3!!! This is very bad. May be best to wipe your iMac. If you buy a new Mac you can expect to buy all new apps. Maybe you could move some apps to the new Mac to give enough room to keep running your ancient CS3 on the new Mac.
