I am using old version of Dreamweaver CS3 had limited licences. No idea how many were actually purchased (was near about 10), but recently got message during activation that license exhausted. But we are not using more that 3-4 licenses.
1. How do i know that how many licenses are used.?
2. Is there any way to reset all and then activate the required one. (As i have discarded old PC's in which it was installed)?

The DWCS3 licencing servers were retired some tme ago so you dont need a license to activate old copies of DW such as DWCS2, DWCS3

I dont exactly know the process involved as there is not much in-depth information at any of the links provided. The limited information suggests you first sign in with your AdobeID or create an AdobeID and sign in - after that I don't know what the procedure is:

As Osgood mentioned, the CS3 activation servers are gone now so you won't be able to install and activate from your existing media. However, if you have a valid license you can still get CS3 on your computers. Basically, you will need to log into Adobe's CS3 download portal, download a special offline activated version of the program and use your valid license information to obtain a new offline validation number to get up and running.
The answer given in this thread describes the process in full detail...

You will need to unistall the old CS3 and get a replacement copy & new serial number that does not require activation.
Be sure to remove the old Adobe PCD folder. If you don't, you will continue to be asked to activate.
