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.

  • 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.

  • I bought photoshop elements in the Itunes store, can I get the PC version for free or at a discount?

    I bought photoshop elements in the Itunes store, can I get the PC version for free or at a discount? I'm about to migrate back to PC and I'd love to not have to buy the program again. I'm not sure how it works though since I bought it through the Itunes app store, not adobe directly. Am I out of luck?

    Theoretically you can use the itunes version to qualify for adobe's upgrade discount, but that's it. All download versions are single platform. And in many countries the street price of the full version of PSE is less than adobe's upgrade price, so it's usually not worth pursuing that. However, if you wish to, I'm told you use your apple ID as your serial number when asked. I don't know anyone who's done this, so I don't know how well it really works.

  • 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."

  • Can I download Adobe Photoshop CS2 legally from Adobe's link?

    Dear Adobe Community,
    The following link shows how to get Adobe Photoshop CS2 "legally" http://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/how-to-get-photoshop-for-free/
    The conditions from Adobe are that you must have either purchased the license perviously or have bought Reader 7 beforehand. I know certainly that I have not bought Photoshop CS2 before, so I don't know if I can still purchase it.
    Ethically, it feels wrong to get the download however practically I need it for school and I don't have a lot of money. I'm trying to do the right thing here, can anybody suggest what to do?
    Thanks!

    Yeah, that's what I am worried about. I guess I will just pass. As for the prices, they are still too high. I just needed the software for school projects and charity work - yet price is still a roadblock.
    I think they should legalize it for nonlicensed members. I could certainly benefit from this and thereby indirectly benefit others.

  • I had to replace my hard drive and can't get my Photoshop CS2  9.0.2 to activate.  I have tried both the phone and the website and have both the serial number

    I had to replace my hard drive and can't get my Photoshop CS2  9.0.2 to activate.  I have tried both the phone and the website and have both the serial numbers.  I can't find a number that works to speak to a live person at Adobe.  I need to reduce the pixel size TODAY on some photos and need the program.  Is there another way to reduce pixels if I can't get my Photoshop running today?

    Where do I get the specially assigned serial number?????  I don't want to have to purchase anything since I already bought the CS2 and I don't need a newer version.
    Follow the prompts at the link provided by Ned.
    Everything's there including your new CS2 non-activation download file and your new non-activation serial number.
    It's free for existing owners of CS and CS2. Nothing more to purchase.

  • I bought the Mac version of Premiere Elements, can I get the Windows version for free or cheap with my serial number?

    I bought the Mac version of Premiere Elements, can I get the Windows version for free or cheap with my serial number? I'm about to migrate back to PC soon and I'd love to not have to buy the program again since I just bought it. Under my order history though it only shows it for Mac so I wanted to make sure.

    The boxed packaging is not sold by Adobe direct. If you want to explore that type of purchase which offers the perk of a Windows and a Mac installation disc, you need to purchase from an authorized reseller who is not going to offer you "upgraded pricing". The seller would be its own entity with its own pricing and own return/refund policy. Sometimes the authorized reseller price may be less than the Adobe"upgraded pricing".
    Did you purchase your Premiere Elements 13 Mac from Adobe direct and are within 30 days of purchase? If so, you can contact Adobe Chat Orders to ask for return/refund. And, then you can explore the authorized resellers for pricing and availability of the box packaging. Maybe check out the pricing all around before making any final decisions.
    Please review and consider.
    Thank you.

    You can download the free 30 day trial on Adobe’s site.
    If you meant something else you may want to reconsider your intentions or at least where you post such questions.

    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 just bought the new late 2013 iMac.  Can I get the new iWork for free?

    I just bought a new late 2013 iMac.  Can I get the new iWork for free?  I updated it to Mavericks also.  The Mac App store is showing $19.99 for each iWork component (Pages, Numbers, Keynote).  I also bought the previous iWork version, if that matters.  Free updates for iPhoto and  iMovie seemed to show up with no problems.  Maybe these are just glitches that will clear up in a couple of days?

    Hi.  If you want it to get updated, this should take care of it.
    1. Uninstall iWork from your Mac.
    2. Do a fresh install of iWork from DVD.
    3. Install iWork update from Apple Downloads (direct link here:  http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1563)
    4. Sign into the Mac App Store, and check for updates.  It should now show up as a free update.  You may have to give it a few minutes (i.e. 10-15 minutes).
    I've been a Windows user for years, so I know all of the tricks by now.  I had hoped I would not need this knowledge for a Mac, but oh well...
    Good luck.

    i bought the macbook pro few months ago can i get the lion upgrade for free as a part of my software support?

    They announced it; sorry, no free Lion:
    "The Mac OS X Lion Up-To-Date upgrade is available at no additional charge via the Mac App Store to all customers who purchased a qualifying new Mac system from Apple or an Apple Authorized Reseller on or after June 6, 2011. Users must request their Up-To-Date upgrade within 30 days of purchase of their Mac computer. Customers who purchase a qualifying Mac between June 6, 2011 and the date when Lion is available in the Mac App Store will have 30 days from Lion’s official release date to make a request."

  • My apple ipod shuffle's ear headset has lost..And My ipod is in warranty period..So Can I get a new one for free or i should bye ?

    My apple ipod shuffle's ear headset has lost..And My ipod is in warranty period..So Can I get a new one for free or i should bye ?

    Frankly just about any headset with the proper size connection will likely work.  We like ear buds with soft coverings so even when we get a hard headset with a player we swap them out.  While Apple might just possibly give you a set for free since they are not an expensive item, loss is not covered by warranty.  If you're a long drive from an Apple Store it might cost you more in fuel and vehicle wear and tear than going to a local store and buying a comfortable replacement.

  • Can I get a replacement modem for free?

    I am currently using Westell 327W Modem for Verizon DSL. Can I get a replacement modem for free if I suspect my current one is not working properly?

    It's very possible you could get one sent to you for free. Doesn't hurt to try and ask for one over the phone. It might result in sending back the 327w however.
    What issue are you having with the 327w though? We might be able to solve it.
