CS3 Reactivation

I have followed all of the support instructions to get a new serial number for my old (but still perfectly functional) copy of Dreamweaver CS3. I have uninstalled the old version and re-installed the version that was offered for download from the support pages. At no stage during the installation was I asked to input the new serial number. I have re-opened the new version of CS3 and it is still trying to re-validate. It is unable to do so. How can I continue using the product?

    There is a folder that needs to be removed, I think Adobe's instructions either forget to mention it, or hide it pretty well. You should be able to follow Nancy's "Correct" answer from this thread to get up and running...

    Hi Jon

    Success! I have followed it all through again and it has worked! Not sure what went wrong first time, but we are looking good now. Thanks for the lead to the post

    cheers
