I recently purchased and received a stock Apple Macbook Pro 17 inch laptop and am trying to install Creator 9 on it since I loved it so much and hoped that I would be able to use it on my new laptop, even though it is an apple product.

I put in the CD and it did not auto run and nothing I could find in the CD's contents opened the auto run.

I am fairly new to Macs (used some at my old high school) and do not know everything so assistance in this matter would be appreciated. Thanks for your time!

EMC 9 is for Windows based O/S, not Mac.

This is assuming that by Creator 9 you meant to say EMC 9.

Look at the Mac site for Windows emulation software (Bootcamp).  EMC 9 may work under that.  

Toast is (almost) the Mac equivalent of EMC 9.  Use it in conjunction with IMovie and other ILife applications.
Regardless of what I say about computer maintenance, there is no need to defrag a solid state hard drive.
