How to install Photoshop Elements 14 and Premiere Elements 14 on new MacBook? Tried installing DVD contents from SD card but installer now says software is pirated.[was: piracy??]

Question

Hi there...a lot excuses for my bad English &#128578;I bought Photoshop Elements / Premiere Elements at Amazon 2 days ago. Today I tried to install it on my new Macbook, it have no DVD unit, so I copied the files to a SD-Card and put this into the Mac and started to install. The Process asked for the Adobe-ID, I logged in and then typed the serial number. It asked for the volume and started to install. After that it stopped and noticed, that there was a mistake at the Checkup for Original Software and says, that my Product is NOT original. Is this in reason of the copy to the SD Card, or is this real piracy? Any thoughts about it?Here the original text: Thank you for the help...JAN
