What are you trying to do?

Open a FreeHand file?

Installing FreeHand?

Installing Illustrator?

Opening a FreeHand file is possible in Illustrator CS5.

Or Illustrator CS6 with the plugin from Tensai.co.uk

[Monika Gause]

You will need to buy that plugin.

thanks,

who can i buy it.

i get it from Abobe website for free. they didn't mention any payment.

[Monika Gause]

The plugin is not free.

You mean you downloaded FreeHand from the Adobe website?

It's not free either.

In case you have bought it some years ago, you are allowed to use the serial number listed here.

Error, "Unable to Activate" in Macromedia legacy products

But then it will still not run on certain systems (current Mac OS, for example)

[tamiy11413139]

yes i'am

i have the disk and all licens of freehand

[Monika Gause]

On which system do you wish to install FreeHand?

Tami,

I believe this should cover it (with a bit of history, too):

AI CS2 is able to open FH4 - FH9

AI CS3 - CS5/C5.5 are able to open FH7 - FH11

AI CS6 - CC are unable to open FH files, but you can do it if you get the FHImport interface plugin, as well as a copy of the original FHImport plugin.
