After reinstalling CS3 I can no longer register due to the activation error. I followed the procedures to obtain a new serial number and am still having the same error using the new serial number.

I have been at this for 3 days, I NEED to have it fixed as I am trying to make the memorial cards for my mothers funeral in 2 days.

Please help!

Have you uninstalled the existing CS3 and installed the new non-activation CS3?

I haven't. Where can I download the non activation?

Activation or connection error when starting CS3 or Acrobat 8

The first thing it asks you to do is enter your CS3 serial number so have that handy.

You'll then be given a new non-activation CS3 serial number plus a new link to download the non-activation version of CS3.
