Thank You

Question

It's been many years since I left Graphic Design and jumped to the field of Critical-Care Nursing, but I still occasionally bust out my old Illustrator files and draw...

Just wanted to THANK Adobe for honoring my original CS4 purchase and assisting me with installing legacy software onto a new Mac. Your customer support and resolution for installation problems was top notch. I don't feel people say thank you enough when things go right - THANK YOU AGAIN Adobe.

[Moved from The Lounge to Download & Install.] AFAIK, pre-CS5 software cannot be activated on another machine.  The aged-out activation servers were scrapped several years ago.  When the trial ends, the software quits working. This is from the official Adobe website:https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/activation-deactivation-help.htmlCS2, CS3, CS4, or Acrobat 7, 8, 9, Acrobat X, Acrobat XI, AND 3DOur aging activation servers for earlier versions of Acrobat and Creative Suite (CS) applications had to be retired. You won't be able to activate these apps, as these activation servers are no longer available. =============Beware of fake Adobe reps who may contact you privately offering to sell you software or take control of your computer. It's a scam, run away! Real Adobe employees will never reach out via Outlook, Yahoo, Gmail or Skype. =============3 Easy Ways to Identify Genuine Adobe Staffhttps://tinyurl.com/10791730
