Adobe Photoshop CS2 for free?

I´ve heard that Adobe Photoshop CS2 is now available for free. Is that right and where am I able to download it? Thanks a lot

Because their online activation servers had to be shut down, Adobe released a version of Photoshop CS2 that avoids online activation for existing license holders so that they can continue to use the software they purchased a license for.
A lot of web sites reported that this was tantamount to it suddenly being "given away for free".
It's not.
Using it without a license is tantamount to walking out with merchandise from a store just because it's not in a locked cabinet and you can pick it up with your hands.
Sorry for the bad news.

  • Downloading adobe photoshop cs2 for free

    I am living in USA. Can I download and install free adobe photoshop cs2??? because its old version. and I have found through google to download for free.

    The free download for CS2 products is for licensed users to replace their previous versions that required activation and can no longer be installed becasue the activation servers are shut down. Anyone else who uses the installers is commiting a crime.

  • Can i get Adobe Photoshop CS2 for free of cost?

    I have came across that photoshop cs2 is coming legally free of cost

    As gener7 has pointed out there is no "free Photoshop CS2", it has been made available for people who hold legitimate licenses for versions affected by the activation server having been taken offline and a lot of people seem to have misunderstood that.
    While it may be tempting to ignore the distinction it may be worth considering that Photoshop is still the product of other persons’ efforts (no matter how the profits are being distributed between the corporation Adobe and the individual developers etc.) – supposing you do produce images yourself (as a photographer, designer, illustrator, …) how would you feel about people assuming because you publish them online they are theirs to use for free?
    Maybe you should consider using the free image editing application Gimp if your economical circumstances should not allow for purchasing a Photoshop license currently.

  • Hello! I understand I can download Adobe Illustrator CS2 for free but I don't know where to

    Hello! I understand I can download Adobe Illustrator CS2 for free but I don't know where to. Can somebody help me out with this? Thank you very much.

    Hello Stanislav,
    to my knowledge these downloads in Download Acrobat 7 and CS2 products is subject to certain conditions, for example: "The serial numbers provided as a part of the download may only be used by customers who legitimately purchased CS2 or Acrobat 7 and need to maintain their current use of these products."

    There is no free version of CS2.  There is only a special version of CS2 available for people who purchased it and need to reinstall it.

  • I have Adobe Photoshop cs2 for windows.

    Considering getting a Mac but first see if I have to purchase the one for Apple or will they let me convert from windows to a mac version

    The correct answer would be that you need to request a Cross-Grade from Adobe customer service and pay for the upgrade to CS5 for the Mac ($200), and forfeit your license to your Windows version of Photoshop.
    If you want to keep using your CS2 Windows copy, then you have to buy a full version of CS5 for the Mac at full price ($700).
    Hurry up,  CS2 will be out of the upgrade loop very soon, as soon as CS6 is announced.

  • DULL colors only on  Adobe photoshop CS2 after buying a new monitor

    Hi,
    I'm hoping someone can help me!
    Recently I bought a new widescreen LG monitor L206WTQ - which I had plugged in and installed the drivers etc etc! The screen works fine.
    I decided to open up my Adobe photoshop CS2 for the first time, to do some photoshopping (also to see what adobe would look like on my new monitor) ...and when I opened the my adobe, a error message popped up saying something like "your monitor 'LG monitor L206WTQ' is defected ... ..." - Now because I wasnt too sure what the message mean't, I just closed the message window and continued to work on adobe - which actually seemed to be running fine - only untill i relized that I could not get the true color WHITE on my color palete!
    I searched google for the problem and to my amazement ... I found a forum that answered my question. The forum told me to go to CONTROL PANEL > DISPLAY > COLOR MANAGEMENT > and then once I was here, click ADD to add the AdobeRGB1998.icc file and set it as the default color profile.
    I accepted these settings and opened up my Adobe to find that it WORKED ... I could get the true color white again.
    BUT! ... now I have found another problem and this is where I need your help. I was searching for photographs on my computer to photoshop on Adobe and when i opened up an image on adobe ... I noticed that the color of the photo is SLIGHTLY DULL compared to the original - Almost as though Adobe made the image a little less brighter. I double clicked on the photo in my MY DOCUMENTS FOLDER, so that i could compare the image to the one on adobe and I was right ... the image did look a bit more dull on Adobe. I thought maybe it was that particular image but every photo I open up on a Adobe now, becomes slightly dull.
    Strangely enough ... when I edit a photo in Adobe and save it under these "dull" conditions ... and open the edited image in my MY DOCUMENTS folder, the images color is back to normal!
    Why do all my images get this 'dull' condition only when I view / open them up in adobe???
    I can't find a forum that has an answer to my question and I'm just hoping one of you experts can help me out, thanks in advance!!

    Dale,
    Photoshop is colour managed. This means when sending RGB to the monitor it uses a profile that describes the monitor's behaviour.
    In order to display colours properly it has to change the RGB values sent to that specific monitor. The device profile is a set of offset values that is typical for that one monitor.
    Your current profile probably belongs to your previous monitor. Recalibrate an profile your monitor.

    The bad thing about trying to buy old versions of adobe software, is there is so much pirated adobe software out there.

    I have Photoshop CS2 for the MAC and it stopped working on my MAC. I recently bought a new MAC, an IMAC and it doesn't work on that either. There appears to be no way to contact Adobe. What do I do? Thanks, Ed

    That because the activation servers were retired. Now for the good news:
    Adobe has provided a non-activation version of Photoshop CS2 free of charge for their CS2 license holders.
    Download the Mac version of Photoshop (not the suite) and copy down the serial number next to it.  Do not use your original serial number or cs2 disc.
    Download Acrobat 7 and CS2 products
    Uh... one more thing CS2 is PPC only.  OSX 10.6.8 has Rosetta to run legacy PPC products. 10.7 and above will not.
    Good luck,

    Just to make sure, what exactly do you mean by "stacking photos" and what do you want to achieve thereby?

    Can someone please help a friend of mine get a permanent registration key (not a trial key that expires in 30 days) to replace his lost registration key for Adobe Photoshop CS2? His previous hard drive crashed and he no longer has his registration key. This is vital for his wedding business.

    Thanks to everyone for the tips on my CS2 question. It turns out in the end it was some plug-in filter software that was causing the glitch, not a lack of an Adobe registration key. As for why he still uses CS2, it does the job for him, so that's all he needs.

  • I work for the County and we purchased a copy of Adobe Photoshop CS2 long ago.  The person that did the order is no longer here.  All I have is the CD Disk that is new but i did not know the key code is.  Is there a way to get the keycode for this?

    It would not work anyway. The activation servers have been retired and Adobe has provided a new CS2 download along with a new serial number for CS2 owners.
