I used to have another mac that had a cd/dvd drive, but it died. I now have Macbook Air and when I installed Mountail Lion is lost iWorks; I purchased the cd and have the license and all those #s etc. Am I totally out of luck?
MacBook Air (11-INCH, MID 2011), OS X Mountain Lion
Do you know of anyone whose Mac you can "borrow" briefly or, perhaps, an external optical drive? You could then make a disk image of the CD/DVD using Disk Utility & copy that to a flash drive. If you live close enough to an Apple Store you could make a Genius Bar appointment & I'm sure they could help you.
iWork '09 on the CD/DVD in the retail box does not require a serial number. Only licensing the downloaded trial requires a serial number & it is only one number that licenses all three apps.

Thanks Peggy, I think I'm going to have to go to the Apple store, the trial is no longer being offered, I have a flash drive but that's pointless there is no way I can use my pc's drive and then use migration assistant?
Someone else sent me a link to do it as is, but it's making my head spin.
Send me an e-mail & I'll send you directions to get the trial. Make sure you save a copy on an external hard drive of some sort. You'll find my e-mail in the biography section of my profile.
It's coming from a me.com a/c thanks
Many thanks.
