MacBook Air Elements 12 Download

I recently purchased a MacBook Air and I love it!
I have an iPhone....and THAT is the extent of my Apple hardware knowledge. We have several Dells but no Apple.
The MacBook has no port for a disc and applications must be downloaded. I have never done this with the Mac and I was hoping a fellow hog may have downloaded Photoshop Elements 11 or 12 with Premier onto their MacBook and can give me some meaningful instructions regarding the method.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Frank, have you bought Elements already? If not you can download it directly from Adobe over the web if you have your MacBook online. ;)

I haven't bought it yet and I will take a look at Adobe to purchase.
I do a bit of business with B& H and I saw that they have it available. I would think that Adobe would have better technical advice if I ran into a problem.

Indeed. I also buy nearly everything from B&H but in your case with the MacBook I would buy it direct from Adobe. No fuss, fast and easy. ;)

It is a DVD drive that plugs into your USB port. You can upload and download from it.

Just noticed you can download Elements 12 from B&H for $59. Good price.

I have a Mac Book Air and also love it. If you have a subscription to Adobe CC you can download the complete CC suite and all apps work flawlessly. I found the trick was getting the iPhone picts onto the Macbook air. You can purchase an Apple "SuperDrive" (cd drive) which plugs into your usb port. That also works very well altho a bit slow.
