Registration Illlustrator/Photoshop CS2

I had installed Illustrator and Photoshop CS2 (Education versions, if that makes a difference) on my desk somewhere about 6 years ago. My office is finally died on me, so I never had the possibility to uninstall a program. Now, during reinstallation on my Dell laptop (which works great) I can't save the program. After researching I know now there is a 'glitches' and there are downloads on the Adobe site, but I'm confused. I have the disks. They were purchased in a store, do not illegally downloaded. My record shows that I have 30 days to register or Illustrator / Photoshop CS2 can not be used.

My questions:

-I should ignore the discs entirely (uninstall the laptop) and download the link on Adobe (https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=cs2_downloads) in place?

-This internet downloading programs will expire and cause problems with ongoing projects?

-How will they know that I actually paid for Adobe products? Do I have to enter my serial number or customer ID anywhere?

Thank you very much for your time.

StephanieLB please download new installers and use serial numbers also available on the download page you referenced.  Installers are volume license installers that don't require activation.  You will need to use the serial number on this page, instead of the serial number that was purchased, in order to allow the installation programs install successfully.  You can find more details at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1195856.

  • Registration my Photoshop CS2 problems

    I have owned different versions of Photoshop over the years, and the latest version I have is CS2.

    I installed it on two computers, one running Windows XP and other Windows Vista.

    Apparently, Adobe has me under two pieces of identification, both using the same email address, but with different physical addresses, my old and my new.   Apparently, all my registration information are stored under that with the old address, but I can't get access to that with the new address when I go to the Adobe Web site.   That it is not my records.

    For these past years, I worked mainly on Linux using gimp, but I just got a new printer, which is not supported under Linux, so I have to use Windows and Photoshop to print.

    Whenever I start Photoshop CS2 on the second computer, it tells me I need to sign up.  If I do - unnecessary I guess - it accepts recording, but then the next time I start the program, it does the same thing again.

    I can live with that, but if there is a simple way to fix, I want to do.  I have spent a lot of time talking on the phone to Adobe or using chat online, but don't have any help about it.

    Also, I hope to make a few changes to my system in the near future.    First of all, I will improve probably both computers to Windows 7.  Second, I can replace one of the computers with a new computer.  Finally, I can upgrade to Photoshop CS5.

    Can someone give me advice on how to go about these things so you end up with two legitimate versions of Photoshop on two computers and to avoid problems...    I'm worried that I might have to spend hours on the phone trying to make.

    Registration is different from activation. Since you already registered

    CS2 with adobe, even if on an another computer, no need to do it again.

    Try right click on the shortcut of cs2 and choose Run as administrator

    and then if you get the registration screen, select the option skip

    or never register option.

    Then quite cs2 and restart your computer and see if that makes a difference.

  • Photoshop CS2 keeps requires registration at startup; How can I disable the registration window?

    I just downloaded and installed a version of Photoshop CS2 system that doesn't require activation on a Windows 7 system. It has already been validated and registered. Everything works fine. Unfortunately, whenever I start photoshop it always opens the registration window no matter how I answer, "register later", "do not save", propose another recording attempt, or simply close the window. It's a very boring horse I want to disable.

    Yes, I installed it as an administrator.

    I was the cause of the breakdowns and have solved the problem; but have not quite yet fully understood the nature of the underlying cause.  I don't know that it had something to do with a combination of permissions and compatibility modes. In any case, I ran the registration process again in a process of trial and error combinations and was finally able to launch Photoshop without the registration window which pops up again. I am being harassed is more when I start the program and I am now it works normally on Windows 7. I intend to run a little more testing to see if I can resolve the issue a little more. Thanks for the help, much appreciated.

    On further testing, I decided that if I run the program in compatibility mode earlier it then allow me to properly register the program. I can then return the program for Windows 7 compatibility mode for normal use.

  • How to re - register my Photoshop CS2

    Hello

    I'm trying to authenticate my Photoshop CS2, I uninstalled some time ago and switched to Adobe Creative... but it's just too much, I don't need 90% of what it offers and to Photoshop CS2 is ideal.

    Online automatic authentication does not work, and phone registration does not work either.


    Thanks in advance

    The activation for CS2 and earlier servers were taken offline in some years.

    But Adobe has created a special version of the CS2 applications and new serial numbers that you can download and use this work without activation.  See here: https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/creative-suite-2-activation-end-life.html

    Hi Keith,

    You won't be able to re - install using the discs and the number of series that you used initially, but we have a solution.

    The activation for more server CS2 is no longer in service. For this reason, we did a version of these titles of software available that doesn't require activation. This is for users who already buy the software.  For more details and specific links for the software, please see the following link:

    Instead of your old serial number, use the one shown next to the download link: download Acrobat 7 and CS2 products

  • Satellite M40X-183: Impossible to install photoshop CS2

    I have a Satellite M40X-183. I tried to install Photoshop CS2 and it installs everything but the help files and I wait for hours complete the installation, but it is not. Before it took me a long time to set up but once I updated my toshiba software he showed some changes and installed more quickly but still stuck using the part files. It seems to install but it does not actually install anything this either fight the help files and I install Photoshop CS2 on my desktop from the cd, it works very well.

    I have similar problems with some other proggrams running.
    Is there anyway I can install photoshop? has anyone else had the same problem I have?

    Hello

    It's really not easy to say what can be the problem. You will be very happy if someone has exactly the same problem and can give you some explanations. I have installed and tested a lot of different software on my Tecra and up to now, everything works fine.

    Problem is that Toshiba is not responsible for the non-Toshiba software and if no one can help you try to contact Adobe support.

    Sorry, but I don't see any other solution.

    Good luck!

  • Photoshop CS2 download link

    It seems that Adobe finally withdrew the possibility to download media from Photoshop CS2. The old URL goes now to a purchase for creative cloud page

    Desktop adobe Creative Cloud applications. Adobe Creative Cloud

    It seems so that if someone now impossible to activate the CS2 is towards the top of the Creek without a paddle. I guess that's a good thing like here, nobody really knew for sure the legality of telling the first users of Photoshop version to download, but it's a little rough on someone who spent $1000 buy ten years ago because they are forced to spend and spend more money now. If anyone has the old URL for the download back could you try to confirm if I'm wrong?

    CS2 can always be downloaded from

    Download Adobe Acrobat 7 and Adobe Creative Suite 2

    Linking bypasses incorrect links in the Adobe Help article you are talking about.

    Incorrect links to error: "Activation Server unavailable". CS2, Acrobat 7, Audition 3 have been reported to and recognized by Adobe, a few days ago. I am pessimistic that they will ever be fixed.

  • Photoshop CS2 began to have questions about the other windows.

    About 2 months ago, I started to notice that Photoshop CS2 has started to have problems with me open or do it before all other windows, such as Explorer or Chrome for example. This is what my PS normally looks like:Clipboard01.png

    and if I try to bring another program, it will act as if I clicked on the start bar and the PS is more picked up (you have to click the program again to interact with him)

    Then when I go to color/clear/do almost anything on the Web, my tools will vanish like this:Clipboard02.png

    and reappear when I click on the gray background of the PS window. They may not be disabled.

    Sometimes, and I don't have a screenshot because I can't reproduce right now, the new program (Chrome, Explorer, etc.) is displayed, but the windows tools will remain.

    I dealt with it for a while, but I would like to first of all streaming my art and I won't continue to happen. I like to use CS2, so please don't recommend just other programs unless it is just absolutely not repairable.

    I ran CS2 on this computer since September of the year last with zero problems, so I don't know why it started

    Thank you, I'll check the wire, but I tried to reset my default preferences, and that seems to have fixed.

  • Photoshop CS2 free?

    Hello world!

    My name is mark and I have a hard time trying to figure out the legal uses of program Adobe Photoshop CS2. I read the Internet that some people say that it is free and some say that it is not. Let me quote some opinions.

    Person 1: PS CS2 isn't free, Adobe has only given a new serial key for people who had bought in the past.

    Person 2: PS CS2 is free, Adobe, I called and they said that the program is free to download and use.

    Person 3: Yes you can download PS CS2 and use.

    Now what is this then? Some say that it is not free, and some say it is. I couldn't get Adobe on the phone now to ask them directly about this issue. It would be great if an Adobe representative could respond.

    My question is more or less on legal issues. Is Adobe Photoshop CS2 free to download and free to use (LEGAL AFFAIRS).

    Marek

    Hello

    the first person is correct. CS2 is not free, but it is slightly more complicated. Until the product Adobe Creative cloud needed activation. Adobe closed the server who has activated the CS2 which means that owners could not reinstall. As a gesture of goodwill the company has created a modified version of CS2 that doesn't require activation, just a generic serial number and this is the version which is downloadable. The web page with it on makes it clear that you must own existing CS2 or earlier to download it, but they do not have checks in place to prevent anyone on the web to download for free. For this reason, various reputable sites gave the URLS, and have probably downloaded it thousands of owners not Photoshop. I've never heard of someone at - he continued, but then its not exactly going to make the first page of the time if they did. From a legal point of view its probably illegal, but Adobe framework would difficult to win a trial. What they have done is in the real world is equivalent to having a candy store and leaves the door wide open during the night and then waiting for anyone to enter and take chocolate. Either incidentally, it will not work on a modern with a processor Intel Mac, but it looks good on the Windows platform.
