Hello everyone!

I work on Mac OS X.6.8 using Photoshop CS 2 (as well as Illustrator CS2.

It worked well until yesterday when I got the error message telling me I shall"activate" -repair  (I knew that Photoshop CS2 would not work on a newer Mac, but thought it's OK as long I as work on this one)

On the link here: Erreur : serveur d’activation indisponible | CS2, Acrobat 7, Audition 3

it said what I shall do to re-install but I can't find WHERE on the web site I can do this? The Error link leads to Adoibe Download, by-ut only to the newer editions, clouds etc...

I just need to be able to use Photoshop CS2 (also Illustrator CS2)  as before since I have  emergency work to finish...

Thank you for your help!

    Download Adobe Acrobat 7 and Adobe Creative Suite 2 products

    Hi.

    Sylviane is right.

    On this page, in the "French" section, one can download any CS2 product, EXCEPT Photshop which is provided in CS version…

    Isn't it strange ?

    Dear Adul Saini

    Thank you for your reply.

    I tried to do as you mentionned, but I can't download  (a window says my Firelox in "invalid" to download)

    I got a message from "Adobe Community" where I asked for help. They say I wille be contacted but I don't know how and I'm a bit mixed up as I don't know how to deal with it all. (I'm an illustrator not familiar at all with computerizind downloads and all these.)

    In between I tried to install Photoshop CS 2 from a website and I could download it but a window said I have 30 days (a sort of "try time" as for the new Adobe products). But I don't understand as I've the license paid for Adobe Photoshop CS2 and use it for years and haven't changed my computer system. I need it for my current work, as well as Illustrator CS 2 that doesn't work either since yesterday.

    Thank you for your help.

    The download /instruction provided by Atul_Saini are the only option available for getting a working version of CS2 reinstalled.  If Firefox failed for you then ... Make sure you are logged in to the Adobe site, have cookies enabled, clear your cookie cache.  If it continues to fail try using a different browser.

    Thank you for replying to me Ned Murphy.

    What about the download of Photoshop CS2 I already made (and which succeeded...) and which told me (in a window) I have 30 days to appreciate it?  I already bought the  Adobe Pho CS 2 program on disc back in the 2000 ies.

    Will the one I downloaded be deleted from my computer in 30 days?
