Dear Sirs,

 

Good day and Happy New Year.

 

We have purchased few years ago Acrobat 7.0 professional which now we need to uninstall it and intall it again to a pc that was formatted. Unfortunately we got an error message for server being unavailable. We have been instructed by the support ot follow the FAQ with instsallation files that do not require activation but it is not included the Acrobat 7.0 professional.

 

Please advise how can we prooceed with the activation.

 

Many thanks.

 

Best Regards,

 

Agapi Iglesi

Correct answer John T Smith

I have the same question as davidh27493495. Still looking for answer to activate Adobe Pro 7.0. And no, I did not get it as part of Creative Suite. It came in box off the shelf with a CD and serial number which might be useless now.  It was working when I originally installed it years ago.  I tried to reinstall from the CD I get an error that just says stopped working. No instructions. No Thank You for purchasing our cripple ware.


The CS3 and earlier activation server has been removed from service
-So even if you have a disc or saved download, CS3 and earlier are completely dead
-Adobe also no longer supplies the special non-activation version of CS3

Did you use the serial number given to the right of the download link? Your original one won't work.
