    Windows 10 & DVD's

    I recently upgraded to Windows 10 and now find that I am unable to download DVD's to my computer. For example I have got a photoshop Essentials 8 DVD to download but cannot do so. On the disc it says Windows XP/Windows VISTA/Windows 7. I have tried to go into the Adobe site to download this but am unable to do so. Can any member help?

    Thanks

        Unfortunately, I have had a search and it looks like that it isn't supported in Windows 10.

        I no longer use DVDs (havent even got a DVD player for this laptop) and download all my software, but I pay for the photography Adobe - Lightroom / Photoshop, same with all my software now its downloads.

        Not sure if this is what you already tried:

        Get help downloading and installing Adobe Creative Cloud apps, Acrobat apps, Photoshop Elements, Adobe Technical Communication Suite, and more.

          Might be a version issue, just did a quick check and PSE 8 isn't officially supported on W10. Seems to be quite a few comments that it either doesn't install or doesn't run correctly. PSE 8 is quite an old version and you may need to upgrade.

            Andy beat me to it and found much the same.

              This page:



              tells you where you might be able to find the serial number you need from your DVD sleeve/box (its a little way down the page).

                Thanks Andy. I wonder whether you can suggest which PSE is supported by Windows 10 so that I can perhaps buy one quickly.
                Really disappointed.

                  If you can - personally - I would go for latest version of any software. If not, due to cost, then look at the one you can afford and do a search "[product name] - windows 10 compatibility" - to get an idea from the general public then as to whether or not it works on windows 10.

                    Nat,

                    A big suggestion here if you are time sensitive as well - download the trial version of the latest photoshop elements (its usually a timed trial rather than limited use) and use that to edit your urgent photos with for now.

                    This then gives you an idea as to how well it runs and if you like it as well.

                    Then decide if you want to upgrade to that or use a different product like the adobe photoshop/lightroom package as well.

                    Andy.

                      Thanks Andy. I have actually bought PSE 15 from Currys and will be calling round to collect the same. This is supported by Windows 10. I have paid nearly £80 for as I need it to edit tonights concert pictures. Many thanks for your prompt advice.

                        Always worth checking online for downloads. For instance PSE15 is available for download on Amazon for £70 (may be cheaper elsewhere). A bit cheaper than what you paid and if you have a decent Internet connection will be downloaded quicker than you might drive somewhere.

                          Upgrade from Adobe was £65 Nat - could you not have got that as you have a previous version?

                            Personally think for extra £5 I'd go for full version.

                              I have the full version. I have also downloaded PSE 15 to my computer. The problem I have now is how to get at my file for pictures. With PSE 8 I could click on file and I would get all my files from which I could click on pictures and I'd get all my pictures file. I then had to click on the relevant file for me to get all my photos I needed for editing. With PSE 15 I am unable to get at my files for a start- too many features I believe.

                              Any help will be much appreciated.
