Invalid checksum again and again

Hi,

I've tried downloading the extended trial of Creative suite without succes. Then I tried downloading the files directly - without luck - I keep getting the messages "The following disk images couldn't be opened" - invalid checksum.

I'm working with a MacBook Pro with OS X

Please advice.

Thank you,

Maria

    Go to Finder > Type Disk Utility > Preferences and simply unchecking the box that says "Verify Checksums" . Close Disk Utility. Then Creative suite dmg should open fine and the program should install without any issues.

    (You might want to re-check the verify checksums box after you've finished the installation though because it's there to help prevent the installation of corrupted .dmgs that could potentially harm your computer)

    what do you mean by system? I only have one Mac.

    Also I've spent hours downloading the file, I'd rather not have to do that again.

    Sorry to say but yes, you have to re-download and then check
