Adobe Illustrator: Download CS

I had the old Creative Suite on my computer and now I just downloaded part of it using this link Download Adobe Acrobat 7 and Adobe Creative Suite 2 products.  I clicked on the link for the 1st disc, after that installed, I went on w/the second link for disc2 and so on. After all were installed,  I saw the icon for Creative Suite and clicked on it.  It was asking me to insert disc 2 to continue.  I already downloaded all from the links but somehow even though the system indicated that I had all three installed, I have only photoshop and it's elements, no Illustrator.  How do I get Illustrator?

      Regina,

      If we are talking CS2, the right download page is here, for those with legal ownership:

      Note: If you have the CS2 Premium Suite version, you will have to download the Standard, and then download Acrobat and GoLive separately under their own replacement serial numbers.

      GoLive 9 can be downloaded with the relevant link in the first post by Herbert here:

      Thank you for your note.  I do have legal ownership.  I uninstalled the software from my control panel and any icons I have on my pc.  However, when I start installing the 1st disk, I get this.  I don't know where else the program would be if it's uninstalled.  Please let me know.

      Regina,

      However, when I start installing the 1st disk, I get this.

      The download page should give you no discs, and it should all work with just files (in one go).

      Is your Windows 7 32 or 64 bits?

      CS2 is 32 bits, so if you have 64 bits, I believe you may need to install/run CS2 in XP Mode within (a) Virtual Machine.


      It's 32 bits.  It's weird, on one side the system tells me that all the discs are installed but on the other side it's also telling me I need to insert discs.  So I wind up not getting the software in discs 2 and 3.  How to proceed?

      Which system?

      You downloaded it from the Adobe website?
