I purchased a copy of DW CS5 back in 2012 when in college. Now I'm back at college again and will like to have it since my old computer is long gone. I still have serial number and purchase numbers. I can't seem to find a way to download cs5. Is no longer in my order History. Will downloading DW CC work using the serial number From CS5. Please if anyone can help me out or tell me where to go will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    Creative Suite is legacy software, it's no longer sold or supported.   if you had an academic version purchased from your school or re-seller, you need an academic download that's compatible with your academic serial number.   Feel free to try the ordinary Creative Suite downloads that Hans pointed you to but it may not work.   Also, keep in mind that Creative Suite is not certified to run on newer computers.  Your mileage may vary quite a bit depending on which OS you use.   And next year when Apple stops supporting 32-bit apps, that will end the possibility of using Creative Suite on modern Macs.

    If you want the latest software that is certified to run on new computers, join the Creative Cloud which is by subscription only now.   No serial numbers are used at all.  To activate products, log-in with your paid Adobe ID and password.   The student introductory rate is $20/month for the first year.  After that, it goes up to $39/month for a year.
