I have used CS2 for years without issue. I tried to load CS2 from disk and could not register it. I contacted the help folks and they stated that I need to download CS2 since the activation of my disks is unsupported. I dowloaded the files and ran install. During the install I was asked for a serial number. I entered my original SN and the download SN and get an error message that the SN is incorrect. Suggestions?

    I used the SN from the download page and got the error message. I tried the number with and without hyphens.

    what do you mean you tried with and without hyphens?

    the typical adobe licensing screen shows 6 boxes each of which takes 4 numbers.  you should be using the 24 digit number from the end-of-life page.  no hyphens should be in any of the 6 fields.

    The window is titled "Adobe Photoshop CS2-Setup"

    It asks for User Name, Organization and SN. The SN field is a single window not six boxes.

    the serial numbers on the page where you downloaded your files, work:  http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/creative-suite-2-activation-end-life.html
