Reinstalling Acrobat 7.0

[DavidDundas]

I need to transfer Adobe Acrobat 7.0 to my new PC.  I have the installation CD and serial number but it was an upgrade from Acrobat 5.0 and I no longer have the installation disc for that.  If I give you the serial number of Acrobat 7.0 can you let me know how to make the installation which presently fails, presumably because I need to instal Acrobat 5 first.  I had thought to copy files from the old PC to the new one before running the Acrobat 7 installation;  would that work?

Please advise.

What you have will not work at all

CS2 + Acrobat 7 + Audition 3 (AND EARLIER) Activation Server is gone, so read below

.

You MUST use the special version and serial number on the page, not your original disc or serial number

.

NOTE that CS2 will not install at all on a "modern" Mac with an Intel CPU

When you install the special version of CS2 on a Win7 or Win8 or Win10 computer, you MAY need to right click the program icon and select WinXP compatibility from the option popup

It was correct

This solution worked, so thanks John.
