CS2 Phone Activation?

[lh99923879]

I was given a copy of Adobe CS2. The previous owner deactivated on his cpu prior to giving it to me. This copy is complete with all disks and serial #. When I installed the final disk , it prompted me to do a "phone activation" and to provide an activation code from it. I had no luck using the phone number. Customer service was less than helpful, basically saying, "CS2 is an old program. We no longer support it. Sorry. Ask the forums." I have every disk and with the serial. The only thing stopping me from using the program is this phone activation code. Am I really out of luck? Any help would be greatly appreciated. *Windows 10 OS

Unfortunately Adobe discontinued the activation server for all CS2 products several years ago. And they have just recently stopped official support for all but current and one previous versions of virtually all software now. So unfortunately it seems you are completely out of luck now as far a CS2 is concerned. If you have a perpetual license for newer software registered with Adobe then customer support should give you access to your installation files to install afresh.
