Question

another CS2 post - LOCKED CS2 is a dead product

so I have a very old education version of Creative Suite 2.

It's only used for teaching assist and i'm not financially able to afford to upgrade to Creative Cloud.

But the computer that it's current installed on (running Windows 7) is blue screening too often and I have a newer PC (also running windows 7) that I'd like to transfer my paid for software over to.

unfortunatelly I no longer have the packaging.

What are my options? I know there used to be a way to download it.

 

thanks in advance.

You can't download the installation files for CS2 anywhere and the activation servers for CS2 are down since several years.

CS2 is dead.

If you are working in an education center you can subscribe the Adobe CC for students and teachers.

thanks Matt.

unfortunately, the education CC subscription is more than I can afford right now. And that's only for the first year... then it doubles in price.

(no I don't drink coffee, I don't drink or smoke either hahahahaha)

weird... I just received a private message from adobespecialists@yahoo.com
Offering me a stand alone copy of CS6 for the bargin price of only US$399

sounds kinda' like a scam.

is there a way to report this to adobe mods?
