I am having issues getting the download to work on my MacBook Pro 2011. There is no place to add the serial number after I select the download. Please advise.

Thank you,

David

    I guess the download will not work on MacBook with High Sierra OS system. Anyone have any luck?


    Photoshop cs2 won't work on Intel processor macs after Snow Leopard 10.6.

    Photoshop cs2 requires a mac with a PowerPC processor or an Intel mac that can run Rosetta and your 2011 mac with High Sierra is neither of those, so you won't be able to use photoshop cs2.

    Photoshop system requirements

    Older versions of Photoshop system requirements

    Rosetta (software) - Wikipedia

    Suggest you look into subscribing to photoshop cc which will run on your mac.

    Keep in mind that this version of Photoshop CS2 is suited for existing customers. Adobe had to
    shutdown the activation servers in the past.


    So, while it's available for download and it comes with S/Ns that activates it, it is not freeware.

    You enter the serial number during install, not during download

    You obtain the serial from the download page

    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

    As I do the install there is no place to add the license. Not sure where to plug it in.
