CS Premium photoshop won't open

I was sent here by the person in the adobe chat.

I purchased the Adobe Creative Suite Premium a long time ago and used it occasionally.

NOW Illustrator and InDesign work  ok, but Photoshop won't open beyond a message that says my configuration has changed and I must re-activate.

Same computer, photoshop won't open and the others in the package do. Why is photoshop picking on me?  I'd rather use what I paid for, than the Gimp that I'm using now.

How can I get CS Photoshop past this hurdle?

(Mac still supports 32-bit apps, but Creative Suite 1/2 were Power PC apps rather than Intel apps, which won't run after Mac OS 10.7. 32-bit apps won't run after Mac OS 10.14).

If you have a licence for CS suite  you should be able to doenloace the CS2 suite the do not need activation. I believe Adobe create just CS2 installers the the Allow CS and CS2 users to install on windows.  Adobe took down the old Activation servers.  Mac no longer support 32bit applications.  Old Mac can still run old Photoshop.

Is this CS, or a later app (CS2, CS3...)? The original CS can no longer be installed or reinstalled but there is an alternative.
