I have CS5 and LR4 on a MacBook Pro that I'd like to copy or transfer to a new Mac Mini when I get it. I  have these only on the one computer. Are there instructions on the Web site? Apple Store couldn't/wouldn't address this. Thanks.

You do not want to copy or transfer, you want to do a new install. To do that you need the disks or installer files for the program. If you purchased it as a download from the Adobe store you can log in and redownload the softtware. Then back it up to external media in case you need it again.

Thanks for the quick reply, Michael. My next question is about the sequence.

i have LR and upgrades for LR3 and LR4 on discs (though the updates don't appear to indicate "upgrade"). Should I start with LR, then go straight to the LR4 upgrade? I imagine I'll need to register it again once I'm finally done. I think the EULA allow you to have it on two computers.
