Thought you might ask. Pretty sure it is the reason why but can’t believe I didn’t do it in the first place – downloaded to my hard drive instead of the server.
Thanks for explaining Steve, thought that might be it… Adobe’s download files always want to be local on the same disk that you’re installing to, so glad we figured it out.
Hi. I lost my install discs, but I bought Photoshop. Are these the official programs from Adobe?
Hey there DeAndre, please see this earlier answer to David – thanks.
Hi, I downloaded the file DesignStandard_CS5_LS1.dmg but when I go to open it it says “The following disk images couldn’t be opened”. Does anybody know why this might be? The kind of file says “Disk Image” do I need to change this maybe…?
Thanks, Alex
Hi Alex, see this forum thread for a possible explanation and solution for that message.
(Either that, or you may have a corrupt/incomplete download and would have to try again – make sure your Internet connection is strong and wired.)
Hello :)
I am attempting to download the trial version of CS5 Master Collection to use with my legal serial (used to be able to get it directly from Adobe’s DLM)… but I keep getting an error that says:
“Access Denied
You don’t have permission to access “…/AdobeProducts/STAM/CS5/win32/MasterCollection_CS5_LS1.exe” on this server.
Reference #18.dd080f17.1340724501.2ac95dac ”
Any suggestions?
Never mind :) Got it. Was using IE and had to switch to Firefox. Downloading without an issue now. Thank you so much!
Great Tony, glad you figured it out… Yes, if you run into difficulty then usually trying a different browser or computer will do the trick.
Oh my god. You basically saved my life by having the CS5 download available. Never get rid of it.
Terrific, glad to hear it Sarah – thanks for your note!
I downloaded the above files for Indesign. However, when I run the file, it says that I am “missing file archive. You need all parts in the same folder. Please download all parts.” What does that mean and how do I solve this problem?
Thanks
Hello Zain, sorry you’re having difficulties – that issue should be solved if you follow the steps given in this earlier comment and response.
Hey, I’m running into that ‘Access Denied’ issue Tony ran into. Tried everything from browser switching to my old computer, nothing seems to be fixing it. Any suggestions?
That occasionally happens with Adobe’s servers Brent – but check out this list of download tips for some suggestions.
Hey I downloaded the CS5 trial and it seems to have downloaded correctly because the add-ons (bridge, extension manager) open and run, but when you open indesign it immediately closes and you get a message saying “The application Adobe InDesign CS5 quit unexpectedly.” What can I do here?
Greetings Toni, for that error message, please try the suggestions given in this forum thread.
the link for the master collection in english appears to be down, it gets to 2gb everytime and stops right then.
Welcome Jon, things like that do occasionally happen (see some suggestions) – but these links are all up and the vast majority of readers have no problem.
there is no way of downloading an older version. i lost my disk to cs5 web premium and i contacted a rep and this is the exact words from the rep.
” We are sorry to inform you that this is an older version product and we no longer stock the older version installation media. Adobe is working hard to develop high-quality products and services. However, because warehouse space is limited, we only stock current versions of products. If you need replacement media, we recommend that you purchase an upgrade to the current version. ”
Thanks for your comment Majestic. It’s true that Adobe no longer stocks the older versions in physical disc form. However, you can download all of the original and authentic CS5 trials directly from Adobe’s servers via the links above – just make sure you follow the instructions in the article and you’ll be fine.
I just tried to download CS5 due to lack of installation disks. It got to where it had about 2 minutes left and then told me that the process had been stopped due to a peer and then told me I didn’t have permission. I followed the directions above. Any help?
Hey there Jordan, we’ve never heard of that before but it sounds like perhaps a disk space or file permissions issue? Make sure they’re both good and try again, would be our advice.
thanks for the reply back but all i got is
“Access Denied
You don’t have permission to access “…/AdobeProducts/WEBB/CS5/win32/WebPremium_CS5_LS1.7z” on this server.
Reference #18.c9c1e45.1342066301.5d6fc26″
any thoughts?
Yes – if you’ve carefully followed the instructions in the article but still no luck, then try this list of download tips.
Thank you so much. Could not download using the Adobe site.
Hello, I am trying to download these files as I no longer have a DVD drive on my computer and not having much luck? Is there anyone that could help me troubleshoot? I need these steps dumbed down as I don’t understand cookies, etc?
Greetings Tim, you don’t need to understand anything about cookies actually – that all happens automatically behind the scenes when you follow the instructions.
Just take it one step at a time. Is there a particular problem you’re having or running into?
Hi
thanks for helping me with cs5 adobe master collection.
My computer can’t run cs6 and a few weeks ago i formatted and lost my cs5, but now i have it again.
thank you so much
You’re welcome Joao – glad we could help, and thanks for letting us know!
Thanks for the effort of the direct downloads.
But I receive an ‘Access Denied Error’ when trying to download CS5 Design Premium for Windows, both Western and English. Any reason for that?
Yes, please make sure you are carefully following the download instructions given in the article, that’s very important…
Then if you still have difficulties, try this list of additional tips.
@ ProDesignTools
I thought I followed the instructions correctly but obviously not. Thanks for the help !
THANK YOU! YOU GUYS ARE A LIFE SAVER
Have just downloaded CS5 Design Premium (I think)! Keeps asking which application I would like to Open the downloaded file with, nothing seems to work, have I downloaded it correctly?
Hi Hollie, near the end of the article above it advises using a browser other than Internet Explorer to download these files, as it may drop the file extension… It sounds like that may have happened to you, in which case you just need to rename the affected file to add back a “.exe” extension. Then you should be able to run it as normal.
@ Brent
I am having the same issue: Access Denied. HELP! I need to download CS5 Design Standard. I have a valid Serial Number, but lost my CD.
Sorry you’re having difficulties… Please make sure you’re following the download instructions and tips given to earlier commenters – thanks.
I just found my CS5 Design Standard CD. Thank you.
Great Brent – glad to hear your problem is solved, one way or the other!
Downloaded Dreamweaver CS5 trial, have a 333,907kb (325MB) file on my desktop. Cannot get the file to open – what should I use to get this program to run. The Dreamweaver_11_LS1 file property is that of Adobe Extractor?
Hello Jorge, it sounds like your file extension may have gotten dropped… Please see this earlier comment and response about that occasional phenomenon.
Hi everybody! Is there a way to download a free trial for Acrobat 9 Pro? I lost my DVDs and have my registered serial number.
Yes, indeed there is Jane – please see our direct download links for Adobe Acrobat X and 9, you’ll find both versions there, for Pro/Standard.
Hope this helps!
I am sorry, I forgot to mention that I was looking for Acrobat 9 Pro for MAC OS. I see only Windows versions available for download.
Thanks
Ah, well in that case Jane please see this earlier reply to Katie.
