PS CS5 activation customer service help?

[na4m]

Whats the best Adobe customer service contact route that can help resolve a Photoshop CS5 serial number activation issue?   I've looked around and find nothing obvious for CS activation issues.

As far as I know, there is NO support for that old version... see my reply in this message

John - thanks for your reply.

Your referenced reply seems to refer to downloaded Adobe products.

I thought I read elsewhere that CS6 was on life support but not dead yet.  Perhaps it is after all.

My PS CS5 is boxed Adobe DVD media with serial number originally purchased new by me.  It installs OK on my new computer - but when entering the serial number to activate it says it's invalid. I've tried the steps on the Adobe link but no help.

They're still giving support for resetting the number of activations, but as far as I know, that's it.

What is the contact info for resetting PS CS5 activations?

Be sure to ONLY ask for activation reset
