Installing Adobe CC on my iMac, already have it on my Retina Macbook Pro and its' working fine.
Here is the problem the installation initialises and then guest the installation bar which after getting to 1% this appears.
I've restarted so many times and can't work out what the issue is.
anyone got any idea?Here is the problem the installation initialises and then guest the installation bar which after getting to 1% this appears.

I have an old MacBook Pro that was never used and is like new.
I just fired it up and it works perfectly - but the web browser seems to be so old that many sites do not display correctly. I try to update the browsers / install chrome but apparently the OS is too old. How do I update the OS?
It's an intel Core 2 Duo model; pics attached. I don't have it on me right now but can say later; what OS is installed. To be sure what era; pic attached.
I can't believe that this laptop is basically obsolete due to OS not being able to be updated. That seems bizarre.

That looks to be between 6 and 10 years old. Correct? You'll need to check if it will run Snow Leopard and then buy the discs from Apple. Then you'll have the app store and you can perform all further os updates via the internet.
I think that's the way forward but someone more knowledgeable than me will no doubt be along in a mo...

Thank you; it appears I could even install Lion! But I've just ordered snow leopard for £19.99 from Apple.
Should I have ordered Lion; as officially, it would have worked... but I'm guessing snow leopard may give the old buzzard an easier time?
Thoughts?
Edit to add; ignore this post as I now see that I can't install Lion without Snow Leopard anyway.
