How can I activate Indesign CS2 Dutch?

I contacted the helpdesk and they gave me a link to a workaround. On that page I can choose English version, when I select this I see a link to Indesign CS2 among others. But I need the Dutch (Nederlands) version; when I choose Dutch, I can only download the workaround for Acrobat Pro 7.0 or Standard 7.0, there is also a (broken) link to Acrobat Pro 8.0. And no link at all to Indesign CS 2. Helpdesk says they can't help me, but my original version can't be activated anymore and I don't get an alternative?! So I can only use my official licence for 30 days (new policy since dec 13th) what can I do?

My apologies for the difficulties you are facing with Sogeo.  I have reported the issue with CS2 downloads missing for the Dutch language.

You also mentioned a broken link.  Are you still experiencing problems with the link?  Which specific software and for which operating system were you trying to download?  Did you also try a different web browser in case the issue was browser specific?

I was able to install the Polish version: http://superuser.com/a/622450/101850 the same steps should work for Dutch (note that you would need to find a Dutch version of the 4.0.5 update for InDesign)

Did you previously have the Dutch version?  If I recall we only introduced Activation technology with the English version of the software for CS2.  Are you receiving an activation error when trying to install the Dutch version of Creative Suite 2?

Yes, we previously had the Dutch version installed. In fact, we bought an upgrade for Pagemaker, this was the Dutch version of Indesign CS2, and we had to give the serial of CS2 + the old pagemaker for reinstall. I reinstalled last year + needed to re-activate, this went fine, but after installing a new harddisk recently I wanted to reinstall again (after deactivating the previous installation), which didn't work anymore, I called twice and helpdesk gave me the 'workaround link' but there is no Dutch Indesign. I called the helpdesk from Belgium, I can be servered either in French or English (not in Dutch?) And as I'm being helped in English they never see the problem (the link existes in English). It already took over half a day and no-one seems to be able to help, so I gave up calling. (English for me is no problem, but the software is used by endusers that expect it to be in Dutch, just like before)
