CS3 Download Links Dead

Hi,
I need to re-install CS3 on my Mac, and I have the discs and the serial, but I'm on a new Mac without a CD drive, so I need to download the software, but the download link at the link below are dead. PLEASE ASSIST!!
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs3-product-downloads.html

This worked for me:
1) Goto the link to download your product.  COPY the link to a text program somewhere.  For example, for Photoshop CS3:http://esd.adobe.com/Applications/Photoshop/CS3/Mac/ADBEPHSPCS3_WWE.dmg.
2) Now click the link, in an attempt to download.
3) When you get the error message, paste the link you copied into the URL but DON'T hit enter or navigate to it yet.
4) Change the link to the Trials2 url. For example: http://trials2.adobe.com/dlm/Applications/Photoshop/Mac/ADBEPHSPCS3_WWE.dmg
You are essentially changing the "esd" to "trials2" and adding "/dlm" before "Applications".  This worked for me!
I could not go to the link directly, and if I paused the download and restarted, it said I didn't have permission.  It appears to have to goto the error message screen FIRST, then paste in the modified download link and you should be good to go!
Incidentally, this file appears to be the same file linked to from:

  • Photoshop CS3 Download Link for new laptop using serial number

    Hi all,
    I need a download link for Adobe Photoshop CS3 for installing onto my new laptop as I bought a new laptop to run my photography work on mostly, as I use it for work. I have my serial number but not the cd package to install it as I have lost that. I am having trouble finding a link for cs3 though, can anyone help me find one?
    Thanks,
    Melissa.

    You can also download the trial version of the software thru the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.
    Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site and have cookies enabled in your browser or else the download will not work properly.

  • CS3 Not loading from disc and download link not working

    I had to wipe my MacBook Pro hard drive.  I am now running Mavericks.  I bought CS5 as an upgrade to CS3 so CS3 is required to be on my computer before it will let me load the update.I have tried loading CS3 from the disk (I have my original discs) but it won't let me.  It gets stuck about 2/3rds of the way through install.  I've tried 4 times and I'm fed up. Nothing should be this hard. There is nothing wrong with my CD drive either, as I have loaded four other pieces of software that come on CD.
    I tried to download CS3 from the links that Adobe tells me to use but none of the links work.  I have searched for links in general, I have done specific searches in Adobe.  Everything I come across for the CS3 download gives me an error when I click on the Mac version to download (HTTP Error: 404/support/downloads/dlm/main.jsp).  I have switched off the pop up blocker as well and tried more than one browser when downloading.
    Does anyone have a work around?  I've paid over $4,000 for this software, I don't have the money to buy the latest version and I need to get my work done. I'm done with the stupidity of just trying to load this and I shouldn't have to buy the latest version just to be able to load my update.
    Please help if you can.
    SIncere thanks
    Hasmi

    you don't need to install cs3 in order to install your cs5 upgrade.  if you start the cs5 installation you will first be prompted for your cs5 serial number.  the installer will then 'look' for cs3 on your computer and failing to find that will then prompt you for your cs3 serial number thereby establishing that you qualify to install the cs5 upgrade.
    but if you want to install cs3:
    You can download some of the older versions of Adobe software directly from the Adobe website. See the following links for details.
    Accessible from these pages:
    Download and installation help
    Adobe Downloads - other downloads
    Downloads available:
    CS6 | CS5.5 | CS4 | CS3
    Acrobat XI, X | 9,8
    Premiere Elements 11, 10
    Photoshop Elements 11, 10
    or:
    if you follow all 7 steps, you can download a trial via one of the links on this page using a browser that accepts cookies:  http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html
    and activate with your serial number.
    if you have a download problem (eg, you see an error page or you are offered an incorrect version), you probably didn't follow all 7 steps.  typically, failure to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 is the problem, but your browser must also allow cookies so that (a restrictive browser setting) is another potential source of problems.

  • Download link for Android version of Firefox Mobile Beta seems to be dead

    Didn't know where else to to write this: The download link on http://firefox.com/m/beta seems to be dead. I have tried both the /da and the /en-US version.
    I'm on Android 2.1-update1 on a Sony Ericsson X10 Mini Pro . All other downloads and apps work fine, so I think this might be a simple 404 (Btw.: I tried a couple of days ago as well with the same result).)
    Let me know if I can help troubleshoot it further.

    Sorry, Firefox is not available for the Xperia X10 Mini Pro. For more information, see:

  • Download links are dead under Internet Explorer 11. I had to install Chrome ...

    Why did I have to install Chrome to download Illustrator ? Download links seem dead under IE 11.

    There are a variety of factors with browsers that the Adobe site is prone to err against.  It is possible you had some security settings in place in IE that were not yet included in your newly installed browser, or something similar to that, like not having cookies enabled.  Quite often people are told to try using a different browser as a cure to their interactions with the Adobe site.

  • Adobe won't provide download link to CS3

    I just finished going in circles with Adobe over trying to obtain a download link for Adobe CS3 Web Premium.  My shop bought 5 licenses and now Adobe is telling me that we are out of luck and they can't provide a download link.
    There is no way I am going to suggest to my employer that we buy new licenses for any Adobe products if this is the way they reward customer loyalty.
    I kept getting referred to the forums.  They do have a link in the forums http://forums.adobe.com/message/5653271#5653271  but it doesn't work.
    Thanks a lot Adobe.  I will now have to find a way to edit old flash movies and edit graphics without spending thousands of dollars.

    The links work fine. I just tried them again.
    Are you sure that you followed all Steps? You have to do more than just log in to your Adobe account.
    You also have to start (Step 1) - then immediately cancel (Step 3) - a download of Acrobat Pro trial in order to set a trial cookie on your computer. That trial cookie tricks the Adobe server into giving you access to the other downloads (.e.g CS3) on the Adobe server. Without the trial cookie, you'll get the error that you're encountering.
    Then you go back to the prodesigntools page and click the CS3 download.

  • Cannot Find Download links for CS3

    We purchased CS3 several years ago.  Now that we have a new computer we need to install it, however, I cannot find the download links anywhere.  I have our serial number.  The person on chat said this in no longer available and we have to upgrade to CS6 or CC.  Is this true?  I sure hope not.  We are not ready and I would like to use the software we have paid for.  Please if anyone knows where we can find a valid link to download CS3 please let us know.
    Thanks

  • Download link for Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard

    Hi,
    I need to know where I can download Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard for a license our company has.  Previous I.T. for the company left no credentials for any possible online account with Adobe for the possible download from there.  All I see options for is the Professional, and it does not work with a Standard license.

  • I cannot find the download link for Acrobat 9.0 Standard - all I can see is the Pro versoin.  Can anyone provide or help with this?

    I need to reinstall Acrobat 9 STD which we purchased online.  When I go to the provided link, it does not help me out.  I was eventually able to find the download page for older products but it only shows Acrobat back to v10.x   Am I missing something?  Any help would be appreciated.
