download the installer from ableton.com/latest_versions and run it. When you launch it the first time you get an option to activate it over the web.

That assumes you have enough "unlocks" available. If it's the first time you've done this then it should work fine. If you have done it a few times before it will tell you you're out of unlocks and you just contact customer service and they give you another one.

most likely, you just install, activate online, and you're all set.

EDIT: actually, looky here: http://www.ableton.com/authorization-live8

I would just download it. Likely what you have on the disc is an older version.

Go to www.ableton.com/latest_versions
