CS2 installation error (on Mac OSX, 10.8.2)

I recently learned that Adobe is offering CS downloads for free, download here:
http://www.adobe.com/downloads/cs2_downloads/index.html
I'm running on a new MacbookPro, OS X 10.8.2.
I was able to download all three products fine. The installation starts but eventually I get an error in a popup window that says: "The installation failed. The installed encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance."
The Adobe live chat guy said they don't help with products that old.
Does anybody have any recommendations on how to resolve this?
Thanks.

Not the case, unfortunately.
Adobe has shut down the CS2 activation server.
http://blogs.adobe.com/conversations/2013/01/update-on-cs2-and-acrobat-7-activation-server s.html
They're offering copies of CS2 which don't require activation to customers who purchased genuine CS2 serial numbers years ago.

  • Keep getting "general installation error" message Mac OSX 10.8.5/Safari 6.0.5

    keep getting "general installation error" message Mac OSX 10.8.5/Safari 6.0.5 Followed all the instructions for uninstalling and clean installing. Just wont install

    Make sure you have it set to "show hidden files"
    Check BOTH places and you have to restart Finder
    Press "Quit This" and then go to the Finder Dock icon and right click it
    Select "Open"
    Open TIme Machine
    Go back to September 28 or earlier.
    You'll see the mach_kernel file in the Mac HD directory
    (I can't show it in the TM because screenshots don't work while it's open but here it is in my MAc HD)
    Right click it and select "Restore to"
    Then, when it goes back to Finder, choose the Mac HD directory and click OK.
    It will place the mach_kernel back where it was and you can install software again
    DON'T FORGET to go back and hide your files (and restart Finder) again, or you'll have a mess with the clutter of hidden files everywhere.

    Your problem is definitely not related to 'Community Feedback and Suggestions'. And I cannot see any relationship to Oracle (at least according to the given informations).

    Been trying to install PSE 10 -- At first install got exit code 7 errors -- Try to download the "fix" -- Fix wouldnt download -- Chatted with Tech Support-- Chatted for a 2 1/2 hours -- Tried multiple things -  -- Now the installation gets to about 2% then gets the error " Inconsistencey in installer database"-- Chatted again now download gets to 17% than get an exit code 7 error--  ANY help would be awesome and greatly appreciated.  Mac OSX Version 10.6.8--  Processor 2.26 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo --

    You purchased the DVD/Box of the product or downloaded it from Adobe.com? PSE11 is released now. Would be good to try trial http://www.adobe.com/products/elements-family.html?promoid=KACNC and check if it works.
    Also try installing with Admin account. At times anti-virus also create conflict so you might try with that off and see.
    Cleaning the old files using clean script tool http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html and then try installing again.
    Hope it helps.

  • Web start Errors via Mac OSX 10.5.1

    I wanted to test out webstart on Linux, Windows and Mac OSX and my mac user could not start up the web start demo I had running.
    Mac OSX 10.5.1

    The Demo:

    I am choosing java because its cross-platform and the 1 click web start is just a very nice way to deploy my video game. If anyone else had the same issue or maybe an answer it would help a lot.
    As a note Mac OSX 10.5 include Java 1.5

    Did you migrate your copy of InDesign to a new computer using the Migrate feature? If so, that doesn't work. You would have to use the Adobe Cleaner utility to clean out all your CS stuff, then reinstall from the original media or download file.

  • Reproducible Shockwave player error under Mac OSX 10.6.3

    I develop Shockwave "jigsaw" puzzles with Director.  Sample at kayingleside.com.  My clients are experiencing problems with the most recent Shockwave player under Mac OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard.  Play a jigsaw at the above web site to experience the problem. 
    When you click on a puzzle piece it vanishes.  You can drag the mouse around as you would to move the puzzle piece but it is difficult to position correctly as the piece is invisible.  When you release the mouse button the piece reappears correctly in it's repositioned location. 
    I can reproduce this behavior myself on a Mac 2 x 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon.  2 GB 800 MHz DDR-2 FB-DIMM;  OSX Snow Leopard 10.6.3;   Shockwave  player 11.5.9r620.  The problem does NOT appear when playing the jigsaw puzzle within Director 11 under Snow Leopard nor  when running OSX 10.5.8.

  • Adobe reader installation error on Mac

    I can download Adobe reader but when I run the installer, it is not installed. 
    I get this message:  "Installer package Adobe Reader XI (11.0.06) installer failed (The installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail.  Contact the software manufacturer for assistance.)"
    I have down loaded from several sites with different browsers and always end up with the same result.  I just updated to Mavericks and my old Reader will not work.  I can't discover how to contact the "software manufacturer" which I guess would be Adobe.  What do I do now?

  • ERROR installing MAC OSX onto my W510 Mint 9 Virtual Box.....

    Hi all,
    Im running Linux Mint 9 & trying to install osx 10.6.3 via latest virtual box. (for viewing purposes only!!)  Ive tried it with Empire EFI, iBoot and Legacy boot cd.
    All settings in VB are as tutorials that are out there on the web so im pretty sure my settings are ok. Once one of the above bootable discs loads it asks me to replace the disc with the msc os dvd (retail) and then press F5
    So i wait for the osx disc to mount, wait for about 1-2 minutes (as advised),  press F5 and the disc starts spinning for about a second then stops.  The following error then comes up on the Virtual screen window:
    Block 0x18a96a sectors 0
    this continues to scroll down the page then nothing. Im pretty much useless at pc's and i only use them for wmy work (CAD) Ive been getting help from a guy who is trying to step by step me through the installation process, he has installed it but running Ubuntu.
    Here is the link to our blog he has created on his web page. (which i have to say a big thanks you to him for)
    Moderator edit; Link removed
    So can anyone suggest why the disc is not loading from the DVD drive? possibly a simple setting on my w510?
    Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
    '''If Firefox is open,''' you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    * Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    '''If Firefox is not running,''' you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".
    ;[[Image:SafeMode-Fx35]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
