Mac - CS3 Licensing error, can not activate
Hi thanks in advance for you help in everything that can provide. I have Photoshop CS3 10.0.1 loaded on Mac Mini with the Mavericks 10.9.5. SE for it starts and I get a license expired error all of a sudden. I have the disks and serial number. It is a program that I have used successfully for years then something has changed on the back-end at Adobe. I tried to reinstall it (can not find the file to uninstall any applications or utilities) so I just tried to crush previous installation then got Activation - No. connection error. I can't uninstall the program. I got support me don't shove off on forums like they no longer support CS3 and having read many threads on this topic including the following:
Cannot reactivate CS3, Adobe does not help
https://forums.Adobe.com/thread/1324890
and
I get "Connection No." - activate Adobe CS3
https://forums.Adobe.com/thread/1884410
I think I have the questions of the host that JJMack mentioned on the second thread, but beginner Geek article linked to a response didn't really cover how to get rid of these problems, only how to block Facebook. When I go in my Terminal I appear the following hosts. I don't know what to do here to get my operational programme once more. Should I try these hosts to delta. If so, how do I? Terminal Server will not let me just remove them.
And why is this happening all of a sudden?
