Creative suite CS3 lost Licensing and stopped working. support sent me to a site to download CS3 application but got error 404. How do I download?

Adobe support sent me to a  Photoshop suite CS3 site but when I clicked the download for mac option I was redirected to a site with an error 404.

Download CS3 products
For anything beyond that you will have to be a lot more specific and provide proper system information or details like what browser you use.

  • Creative Suite 4 - Licensing has stopped working

    I was using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro today, and I received an error to restart my PC, and open another program.  When I tried to open Photoshop, I received an error message:  "Licensing for this product has stopped working.  This product has encountered a problem which requires that you restart your computer before it can be launched.  If you continue to see this message after restarting your computer, please contact either your IT administrator or Adobe Technical Support for help, and mention the error code shown at the bottom of this screen.  Error  148:3 "
    What is wrong, and how can I rectify this?  Has anyone heard of this problem recently?

  • Phsp CS3 - License has stopped working - How to access new install version for download?

    Please help! I just finished a session with Adobe and they told me to use the Forums for a solution to my issue.
    Bought a new iMac with Mavericks OS/X. Photoshop CS3 will not open due to a "license has stopped working" error message. I asked the Adobe support person for a link to download a replacement copy and he gave me a link that gives a 404 error on the Mac dmg download page,. I am ready to install PS CS3 but first need to have a usable dmg download link. The tech support person assured me that experts on this forum can help. My question is WHY did he send me to a non-working link?
    Thanks for any advice you can give that really works! :-D

    I get the "License has stopped working" mesages too.
    We have a MacbookPro at home. There are two user-acounts on this mac, one for my wife and one for myself. This way we keep our personal stuff (e-mail, files, settings, dropbox, desktop clutter etc) separated. "Fast user switching" is enabled to easily switch to your personal account.
    Now when I open Photoshop I might get the dreaded "License has stopped working" message. This will happen if Photoshop is left open in her account. So I'll have to log into her account, close Photoshop, go back into my own acount and open Photoshop again.
    I should not get this message since Photoshop is not part of a particular user account, it is installed in the "Applications" folder which is accesible to all users.
    What makes it even more annoying is that I get the "License has stopped working" message on trying to open Photoshop even when Photoshop is closed in in the other acount, but Illustrator is opened.
    This makes no sense since we bought Photoshop and Illustrator CS3 as separate programs, not as a part of the Creative Suite.
    I did not report this to Adobe yet but it wil do that now.

  • License has stopped working (CS3):  tried every fix but no dice

    Hello all, my PS CS3 will not work and I've tried and tried to get it to work but it won't.   You can read everything I've done on this forum:
    http://forums.dealmac.com/read.php?4,2854842,2854842
    I've called Adobe 6 or 7 times now and run both scripts they've made, uninstalled and re-installed 3 times, fixed permissions, deleted the FLEXnet folder (wasn't where it was supposed to be), etc.    Adobe sent me a followup email about my case last week asking how it was going (with no reply address!) and I posted all of this on their support page for my case but have yet to hear from them.   Really, I'm surprised at how bad Adobe's customer service is.  A company as successful as Adobe ought to do better!     What is especially frustrating about this is that the program worked fine before, it's just some code they created that's causing the trouble, so why can't they fix the code?   Or give me a refund?  Or the upgrade to CS4?
    Any help would be appreciated!

  • CS3 licensing has stopped working?

    Recently my enitre CS3 Suite informed my that my "licensing has stopped working. Please uninstall and then reinstall the software." However the software disc is rejected by my 3 year old mac power book as there is some minor wear on the disc. So now what? The disc will read on a newer powermac so I tried to clone it but it is still rejected by my machine. All of the software is already on my mac but none of it will work because of this ridiculous reinstall requirement. How can I reinstall if the disc is unreadable on my mac? Is there a way to copy the disc so it WILL read?

    I'm afraid this is the wrong forum.  Not sure exactly which is the right one.

    I am retired.  In my active years, I purchased Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Standard and Dreamweaver CS5 for my Windows environment.  I recently spent a fortune to migrate to  Apple.  I now (and a bite late) realize that my licenses are not recognized by Adobe. I am desperate. I cannot afford the expense of buying or paying access to the software and, still,  I need the tools for all those little things I do for enjoyment. What can be done?

    The licenses are operating system specific, so one option would be to retain use of the Windows machine you had before the Mac.
    If you want to try to use the older stuff on your new Mac you can try installing Windows emulation software such as Bootcamp.

    it says I should delete the cache in order to get started but it always breaks down while doing it.
    I tried to reinstall but also this didn´t work.
    what can I do?

    Without proper system information nobody can tell you anything specific. You can always delete the Bridge cache at the operating system level - it is, after all, merely a file/ folder.

    Great!
    Now in Terminal at the $ prompt type   sudo python <leave a space after that>  Do not press enter or return yet.
    Drag and drop "license recover.py" into the Terminal window, then press enter or return.
    You should see this result:    Confirm that you do.

    You can try this step :

    Close the Creative Cloud application if it's running.
    Navigate to the OOBE folder.
    Windows: [System drive]:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE

  • Licensing has stopped working/unable to reinstall

    I have been using Creative suite CS3 for years now.  Recently, I got the Licensing has stopped working error message. Im running windows vista 64 bit. I tried the License recovery tool on the adobe website with no luck. So I completely uninstalled CS3 and now I am unable to reinstall it.
    Uninstall went fine, I restarted my laptop afterwards etc... Now I'm trying to install from scratch. During install I get the error message that the file AdobePDF.dll is needed.
    The adobe website makes the solution seem very simple, 3 steps.
    1. When the error occurs, click Cancel to exit the dialog box and continue with the installation.
    2. Install the Microsoft has Hot Fix as documented in Microsoft article #930627 available at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/930627.
    3. Update Acrobat to version 8.1 or later. The Acrobat update is available on the Adobe website at www.adobe.com/support/downloads/.
    I do step one. Installation completes and I am told that Acrobat has installed successfully but photoshop, illustrator, indesign, bridge etc have not. And I do see the Acrobat Pro icon on my desktop and it appears to have installed correctly. However, when I launch acrobat, I am told that acrobat can not be opened without opening one other creative suite application such as Photoshop.
    So I move on to step 2. I followed the install link specifically for windows vista, but am told that the update does not apply to my system.
    step 3- I tried to download an acrobat update, though it was hard to determine If I was doing the right one, (I did the Adobe Acrobat 11.0.01 Pro and Standard update - All languages) but I got an error message telling me that "
    The upgrade patch cannot be installed by the windows installer service because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade patch may update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be upgraded exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade patch."
    Any suggestions for this mess? Prior to the original issue, I was using CS3 almost daily, and I did not make any changes or updates to my system that I know of. I even tried system restore before I even uninstalled CS3.

    Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool
    Run it, then reinstall. You will still get the failed install, so this time uninstall again and reinstall another time. There's a bug in the installer that requires all this hocuspocus of doing things twice. And unless your life depends on it, leave out Acro 8 to avoid that other issue.
