Cannot Install Special Downloaded CS2.  Suggestions?

I am running Win 7 Pro 64.  When I tried to install CS2 from my old disk, I ran into the Activation Server Unavailable problem.  I found what I thought was a solution on the Adobe Website here:
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/creative-suite-2-activation-end-life.htm l
I downloaded the files and tried to install them after setting the Compatibility to Win XP SP3 and Run as Administrator.  I get an error message saying that the proposed installation location contains characters that are not allowed; and the installation will not proceed.  Here is the location that the installation program wants to use, but does not allow:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe
Browsing for other locations gives the same error message.
Any thoughts on how to install this program?  I have it on another older Win 7 Pro 64 machine that was installed before the Activation Server became Unavailable.  That machine is being retired, and I'd like to get a usable CS2 on my new box.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!  TIA!!

I got Photoshop CS2 to install into a C:\Adobe root directory; and it does seem to work.
However, its sister program Bridge will not start.  I get an error message saying that libagli18n28.dll is missing, if I try to start it from within the PS CS2 window.  If I try to start Bridge on its own, I get a message that libagluc28.dll is missing.
Any tips on how to get these missing files in place, and where to put them?

    Hi Agan:
    Yes indeed ddanielsun is encountering  the same problem that led me to initiate this thread ... If you try to install any of the available 10.9.x from 10.6.8 the installer exits with an error "10.9 required for this update" ... seems strange that 10.9 is so very hard to find ! ! !
    jeff
    Clearly you can not update 10.9 if you do not have 10.9
    It is very easy to find, it is in the App Store as the picture I posted earlier displays. Follow the same instructions. If you can't then use THIS LINK which will take you there.
    The current version of 10.9 is 10.9.5 and that is what you will get.

  • Pc cannot install purchased photo elements 13.  Error message appears:  File archive part missing from Adobe Photo Elements 13.  You need all parts in the same folder in order to extract Adobe Photoshop 13.  please download all parts.

    Cannot install my download due to above error message.

    Hi revbos,
    Apologies for your incovinience.
    Requesting you to please go to https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop_elements&loc=us. When you click on download button (after selecting your OS details), it should open a new browser window (which will launch the Akamai installer automatically). Please cancel any installation or error shown.
    The newly opened browser page will look something like this:
    As highlighted, please click on these links (one by one) and see if it downloads the required files. The downloaded files will be compressed with 7z format. If you have some extracting tool (like WinZip) try extracting it. If you don't have it, download 7z. Its a free utility from Microsoft. Once downloaded and installed, you will be able to extract file and locate the PSE setup.
    Please let me know if you face any issues.

  • I cannot install CS2 or 3 on my MacBook

    Hello,
    I have an old PowerBook 1.25GHz that I had both cs2 and CS3 on, I just was given a barley used MacBook and proceeded to install CS2 first as I could not find he CS3 disk. It installed Photoshop and illustrator ok but did not install indesign. Then I found the cs3 disc so I tried to install that, everything went fine until it got to a certain point and and would not install more than acrobat and a few non essential programs. I tried everything to get it to work, finally decided to copy disc to desk top and do an install from my desktop, it would not copy, again to a certain point. I found the file I think it causing problems and did not copy it over but I cannot install now. When I click the install nothing happens.
    Any suggestions?

    I cannot install a previously purchased version of acrobat 9 pro downloaded from the site.  Returns message at final install steps "invalid serial number." I had copied it and pasted it directly from "My Adobe".  What to do?

    Hi hgratz,
    Considering 'invalid serial number' error for Acrobat 9, I would suggest you to please refer the KB doc link mentioned below:
    Error "Invalid serial number" | Acrobat 9 | CS4
    Let me know if that helps.

  • Cannot install Indesign CS2

    I have Indesign CS2, and learned that I cannot install it from my CD's anymore, because the activation disk doesn't work anymore.
    I tried to download the version that's available on adobe.com, I follow the guidelines, but something is not going right. It took 5 hours to download over 700 MB. And trying to open this huge file, there is no installing happening. My computer is Dell DM061, Processor Intel (R) Core (TM) 2CPU, 2GB RAM and running Windows Vista.
    Is the problem with my pc, or is it anything else?

    you should have a ~740mb file.  do you?
    if so, right click > click 'run as administrator'.
