Photoshop CS2 Installation Failure in Mac (OS 10.5.8 X Software)

[reham84]

Hi, I just downloaded Photoshop CS2 for my mac. I'm using OS 10.5.8 X software and had some disk repair issues with my disk, so have lost all my adobe design package. Now whenever I attempt to install the new downloaded photoshop, it gives me this message two seconds after entering the serial number (Install Failed: The installer could not install some files in "/ Applications"). And btw I have 60 G out of 149 G available space on my HD, I have created a new admin user account on my macbook and performed the disk repair twice; all these attempts to resolve this issue but nothing seems to work. I would appreciate your support in regards of this matter. Thank you.

Did you download CS2 from this link?

No, I have downloaded CS2 from this link Download Acrobat 7 and CS2 products and then tried to download CS3 extended for it may work for me Download CS3 products‌

but it didn't work either. I deleted old photoshop folders from /library/preferences (adobe photoshop path folder and settings folder) as explained in the given link, and then I've emptied the trash. Now I was looking for the utilities folder in applications, I have opened adobe installer folder to find an old shortcut for Add or Remove Adobe creative suite 3 Design Premium to find that the original one has been deleted; perhaps during my last disk repair process.

I have tried one more time to install Photoshop CS2 using the serial number given on the same mentioned link but it gave me this failure message this time:

"The following install step failed: run preflight script for Adobe Photoshop cs2"

Hey again, I've successfully installed my new CS2 photoshop file after deleting the add/remove Adobe creative suite 3 Design Premium. It's working again for me like miracle. Thank you for taking the time to review my issue. I'm super excited!! D
