1. Log in as the Administrator
Installing while logged-in as a user and entering the Admin's password to authenticate the installer will not properly install the software.

2. Check for updates
If you are installing from a product DVD, then it is important to check for a later version of your software, as the installer located on your disc may be out of date.
Check for product updates here: http://RedGiant.com/updates

3. Only unzip downloaded installer package on a Mac system
Unzipping the downloaded .zip package on Windows and then transferring this to a Mac system will cause installation problems.

4. Close all programs before installing
This includes but is not limited to your host application(s).

5. Place installer on systemʼs local hard drive
To help prevent installation issues from occurring during installation, it is recommended to move your product installer to your system's local hard drive. This applies to you if you are running the installer from a CD, DVD, USB disk, network disk or any other external disk.

6. Only run one product installer at a time
Running more than one installer at the same time or not closing out of a previous product installer after it is done installing will cause serial numbers to not be accepted and other installation issues.

7. Now you are ready to install, double-click product installer to open it.
The Suite product installer is located in the productʼs root directory folder; with this single Suite installer you will be able to install any of the products from that specific product Suite.

Listed below is a description of each of the installerʼs sections.

-INSTALLATION TYPEOn the Installation Type page, check all of the host apps you would like to install the products into.
Keep in mind that each product will only install and work in the host apps that they are compatible with. Check compatibility here: http://RedGiant.com/compatibility
