Suddenly both Illustrator CS3 and Photoshop CS3 will not open although they worked perfectly for years. Why?

    Adobe CS3 Design Standard download link please!

    if you follow all 7 steps you can dl a trial here:  http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html
    and activate with your serial.
    if you have a problem dl'g, you didn't follow all 7 steps.  the most common error involves failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).

  • Previous computer crashed without my Adobe CS3 Design Standard for Macintosh application being uninstalled, I'm having issues with the CS3 on my new Macintosh laptop. Please help!

    Since the previous computer crashed without my Adobe CS3 Design Standard for Macintosh applications being uninstalled, I'm having issues with the CS3 on my new Macintosh laptop. Please help, I've tried using the online "contact us" with no success, unable to get in contact with a tech support agent that can assist me.

    CS3 is too old to run on a new Macintosh laptop, sorry. You'll have to purchase CS6 or a Creative Cloud subscription.

  • Medias for Adobe CS3 Design Standard/Premium (Windows) Volume License

    Hello,
    We have volume licenses for CS3 Design Standard /Design Premium but no media kit for Windows, unfortunately. All attempts at finding this or buying it have failed. I've spoken direct to Adobe and the official solution is to upgrade to CS6 or Adobe CC! Which really isn't helpful. I've tried upgrading from the trial version of Design Std but that doesn't work.
    Thanks

    I'm a bit confused...I saw your note above about not working with volume license keys, but I disregarded it out of optimism because it doesn't match my experience.
    For our volume licenses, we get our our downloads via ESD (since CS3), and I was under the strong impression they were the same as the trial media (I believe the filenames and download URLs are actually the same?), but I guess I have not verified.
    I wonder if the more likely case is that your volume license code is invalid or has a typo or something? On the other hand, you guys seem to have two data points (Martin and James) to my one marginal one ("strong impression"), so there's that. And I guess my experience with this is Macintosh based but it should not be platform-specific.
    Still.
    I guess another possibility is to make sure that you're downloading the Design Standard installer instead of the installer for the individual products or perhaps the wrong suite package? I dunno.
    I remain skeptical, but I realize there's not a lot of data to back up my skepticism.

  • Adobe CS3 Design Standard for Mac - lost disks

    Hi!
    Situation: I'm buying a new mac, and do not want to use Migration Assistant to transfer my software (mainly as I'd like to do a clean install and not migrate a load of junk that may be on my older mac).
    I have lost my cs3 install disks. I'm a registered and licensed cs3 design standard user.
    I've looked at the forums and contacted Adobe.
    No replacement disks can be sent for legacy software, so Adobe cannot help.
    Does anyone have any suggestions? I dud see one post where a forum member offered assistance, but what the assistance/solution was I'm not sure as the discussion was closed/taken offsite.
    Someone had suggested downloading cs3 from a torrent site, but I'm not at all keen on doing that.
    Any suggestions or advice much appreciated, and yes, I'll take better care of my install disks in the future :o))).
    (In my defence, lame as it is, when I bought cs3, I did see they offered replacement disks for a fee. I didn't realise this was only for current software).
    Regards,
    Venkat

    Bad news for you too.
    First, you are not addressing Adobe here in the user forums.
    Secondly, Adobe does not support CS3 any longer because it hasn't been sold for years.
    Therefore, you're left to the good will of fellow users who volunteer their time here free of charge, if one of them has a solution to your issue.  No one is under any obligation to reply, so ask nicely. 
    One thing I can tell you is that you have not applied any of the versions available for Photoshop.  Unfortunately, the Adobe auto updater was an unmitigated piece of cr@p in any version prior to CS6.  Do not rely on it to assume you are up to date just because it doesn't show any updates available to you under Help > Updates.
    You need to look for the downloads and apply them manually yourself.
    I can't offer any more assistance because I don't do Windows.  Sorry.

  • Is CS3 Design Standard compatible with Windows 7 64-bits and MS Office 2010 Pro Plus?

    Hi,
    I have been googling around to see if Adobe CS3 Design Standard is compatible with Windows 7 64-bits with MS Office 2010 Pro Plus, but I couldn't find a decent answer.
    If anyone here has any idea on this, please let me know.
    As far as i know Adobe CS3 comes with Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro which is not compatible with MS Office 2010, so I am sort of worried that I will need to upgrade my CS3 to CS6.
    Any advises are welcome.
    Thanks.

    I don't know if Acrobat 8 is Win 7 64 bit compatible or if it's supported. The rest of the apps should be fine.
    But I do think you'll have issues with Office 2010 files being placed into InDesign.
    Moving to CS6 is something you should be thinking about very soon. You only get upgrade pricing until the end of the year, but I highly recommend taking a look at Creative Cloud. At $29.99/month for the first year it's a bargain.

  • InDesign CS5.5 upgrade not accepting CS3 Design Standard Serial Number

    Hi,
    I currently have Adobe CS3 Design Standard on my mac computer, and when I try to upgrade my InDesign to InDesign CS5.5, It is telling me my CS3 Serial Number is not valid.  Please help.
    Thank you,

    Yes, as it should be. Suites can only be upgraded to suites. It says so in the fine print of the buying guides. Contact sales support about returning the package and getting a ful lsuite instead.

  • Installing CS3 Design Standard & Premium

    Hi,
    A friend of mine has given me the Adobe CS3 Design Standard and Premium discs as they had the opportunity to upgrade to CS5.
    I have the 2 installation discs and one video workshop discs in their box, but no other packaging.
    My friend never registered or installed these items as they upgraded to CS5 before they needed to.
    I'd like to install these products but I'm not sure where to get the serial number?

    Was that license used as the basis for an upgrade? If so, you have no right
    to use them.

  • CS3 design standard deactivation

    Hi!
    We purchased two licenses for CS3 Design Standard collection
    It was all perfect until one of the workstations went out of order. OS became so corrupted that we couldn't deactivate the product. Once we got all the mess sorted out, I've downloaded a copy of CS3 form adobe website. But i was unable to activate it due to the fact that we reached the number of activations available. I was offered to contact support. I got in touch with 3 different people and i got three different answers:
    1st try - I was offered to call support. But when I call support I receive a notification that support for CS is not available
    2nd try - I was helped to restore corporate access to licensing.adobe.com (sale agent never cared about informing me back in 2008). And i was said that i need to download another version of distributive. Once i restored access to our account - I saw no download available
    3rd attempt - I was literally told that I will get no help unless I upgrade my subscription
    To be honest I was never humiliated like that ever before and I can't figure a way out
    Maybe some can give me 4th and right advice on that problem?
    Thank you

    Well i have tried installing the CS3 Design Standard on Windows 7 the normal way, logged in and executing the installer. This works fine,
    nothing says that the system requirements are not fulfilled. Everything works fine.
    It just dont work silently....
    Does anyone know whats wrong?
    Please help...

    Hi, this might be a little late, but who knows, for the future reference, this is what solved the problem for me:
    Each major application has a file called appname.proxy.xml in their payload folder. At the bottom of the file, simply remove the OS check:
    <SystemRequirementsJSON>[
    {"OS":{"Macintosh":{"Require":[{"Version":"10.4.8"}],"Exclude":[{"Version":"10.4.8"}]},"Wi ndows":{"XP":{"Exclude":true,"Require":{"MinServicePack":"2","@servicePack64Bit":1
    ,"Need64Bit":"0"}},"Server2003":{"Exclude":true},"Vista":{"Require":true}}}
    ]</SystemRequirementsJSON>
