HELP!!! I LOST MY INSTALL CD PHOTOSHOP CS2 !!!

Dear reader,
I've just reinstalled Windows on my PC, and have to reinstall photoshop CS2 as well. But, I've lost my install disc. I've called Adobe to get a new install disc, but they only have CS3 and up :(
Is there anyone who can copy the CD for me, because as Adobe said, this would the only option left, otherwise I must upgrade my license to CS4 :-(
Thank u! Please let me know

To answer Buko's less than helpful post...
As a legitimate license holder that just needs the media, I'd second Dave's suggestion - - but I would not recommend those
paid sites when there are other places to get it for free. Wherever you find a copy (even if from a good Samaritan on this forum), be certain to run a full scan for nasty bugaboos on the media and then again on your system after install.

Re install Adobe Photoshop CS2

31/05/2013.
The question is for someone with Photoshop CS2 on Windows 7.
I presently had to reformat my hard drive to get rid of a bug that left me with a black screen.
After all is reset started to ri install my old programs. One of them is Adobe Photoshop CS2.
After installing CS2 I tried to register it, and Adobe come up saying we don't support this program any
Go to such and such a sight for help.
I have triad that and do not find a satisfactory solution to register.
They say there is a free version somewhere.
If that is the case why not organize that so the old program on my disk gust install and validate at the same time.
Adobe have all my details and how many programs I use from them with registrations. ( About 10-12 programs.)
Why make it harder to old customers of Adobe??? I like CS2 for a number of reasons. Some functions there not in CS5 or different and not as handy.
Or do they want us to migrate to a different supplier of Photo Organizing Programs.?????????
Tank You for the answere.

Loui,
The server that handled the activation for CS2 applications has been decommissioned, put out of service for good.
"Effective December 13, Adobe disabled the activation server for CS2 products and Acrobat 7 because of a technical glitch. These products were released over 7 years ago and do not run on many modern operating systems. But to ensure that any customers activating those old versions can continue to use their software, we issued a serial number directly to those customers. …"
That's why you need to download Adobe the special version of CS2 made available in order to support cases like yours. That special version does not call the mother ship for activation at all, so it requires no activation. It does come with a new serial number, as yours will NOT work.
You'll find them here:

I wish folks didn't come to these user-to-user forums asking why Adobe does this or doesn't do that. As users, we don't know—and we don't care. You are not addressing Adobe here.
As an astronomy professor told me half a century ago: I cannot explain the Universe to you; I can only describe it.

Old Serial # not working to re-install Adobe Photoshop CS2 on different computer

Having a problem installing my copy of Adobe Photoshop CS2 - I have the CDs and I have the serial # from the installation on the old computer, but when I enter the information on the new computer, it tells me it is an invalid serial number. The old computer is a Windows 2000 computer and is running version 9.02. Please provide any assistance you can, as I would like to move the program to my new computer. Thanks! Bob

I was able to login to the Adobe Licensing website (https://www.licensing.adobe.com) as I found an older user ID from the paperwork when we first bought the product in 2005. I was able to bring up the End User ID, which gave me the 24 digit serial number needed to install on the newer computer. The older computer only had 20 digits listed on the software for security purposes, so I needed 4 more digits. Once I got the right serial number, I was able to properly install the Adobe Photoshop CS2. Thanks to Jeff A. Wright for his help!

Im trying to install my photoshop CS2 onto a new laptop that runs windows 8.

When i put the disk in it starts and then cant go any further. How can i get this version loaded on my laptop?

The activation servers for CS and CS2 have been retired. Adobe has issued a non-activation copy free of charge for you.
Download it and use the serial number listed next to the download link. Do not use your original serial.

Adobe Photoshop CS2 Install

I am attempting to install Adobe Photoshop CS2, I know it is an old version, but I am unable to upgrade at this time. However, I have the full version of Adobe Photoshop CS2, and when I run the install it states that it is looking for a previous version of Photoshop. I have verified that this is not an upgrade only cd. Please advise.

Thanks for trying to help out guys but after hours of toying with this thing it finally hit me like a brick wall. I found a work around.
For anyone that may run into this issue in the future:
When you run the Adobe Photoshop CS2 install and it will not let you install due to looking for previous versions
Install Adoby Photoshop CS2 as the 30 day trial, which will install without any issues.
After the installation is completed then ender the serial number manually after that.
Not sure why it has to be a PITA about it, but it works.

Trouble installing Photoshop CS2

My name is Michael and I work for the U.S. Navy on board the USS Emory S Land. My command bought my shop a new computer recently that is used strictly for desktop publishing and video editing projects. This means it has NO internet connectivity. I tried installing Photoshop CS2 on it with a valid serial number and I get an error message: "Setup could not find a qualifying product. You may install a qualifying version of Adobe Photoshop and run setup, or contact Adobe Cumstomer Service." Calling customer service is of no use, they won't help. Can someone please help me? Thanks.

you recently downloaded the cs2 installation files and you are using the serial number(s) from the page with the downloads, correct?
if so, and you are using a mac: http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/startup-error-photoshop-cs2-mac.html

When I install Adobe CS2 Premium everything except Photoshop CS2 installs?

I have my original Adobe CS 2 Premium Edition. I run set up as admin etc and put in my serial etc etc all that goes smoothly. Now I would select the components I want to install. Photoshop Cs2 and Illustrator CS2. So after the installation I see illustrator and I can open it and use it, however I am unable to see a sight of Photoshop CS2 on the start menu, desktop, even made a search for it and no avail. I never received any error message as to it didn't install properly. So how come i'm not seeing adobe photoshop cs2.
Btw, my laptop is Windows 7 Home Basic, I installed the same software on an older computer xp and the same issue persists...can anyone help? It's obviously not an error message just that i am not seeing any sign of adobe photoshop on my laptop?
I even installed it in a different location on the C drive etc. Still nothing worked.

I know Adobe shut off the Activation servers, so your original CS2 will not work anyway.
Adobe has provided a free CS2 replacement. Download Acrobat 7 and CS2 products
Download the replacement and the serial number next to it. Your old CD and serial number is no longer valid.

I need help hoe re-install my photoshop CS5 in my laptop

I need help How to re-install my photoshop CS5. I lost it after reboot my laptop

You should be able to find the installation file to download, along with your serial number by logging on to your Adobe account, providing you registered it originally. You are allowed two activations at any one time, but you will have lost one unless you managed to deactivate CS5 before the crash, (which seems unlikely).
If you have already used two activations, you'll need to contact Customer support and ask them to reset it for you. Be warned they are busy at the moment, so you may have to wait a while on the phone.

Adobe Photoshop CS2 in Macbook Pro

During installation of Adobe Photoshop CS2, the installer runs and freezes in the midst. There is no way of installing Adobe Photoshop CS2 with intel processor. Full reinstallation of Mac OSX doesn't help. Running disk utility doesn't help either. Problems occurred with or without installing of Apple Security Update 2006-003(intel). Any comments?

Edwin, thanks for the input, and I do apologize. You are right. I should be easier with which to live. There are two major problems out there right now. That is also part of the problem. We are not used to two problems in our domain.
I own 20 Mac's in my office, and I only did these updates on my MacBook Pro 17 inch and my G5 Dual 2.3 Ghz machine that has two 30-inch Cinema Displays. I had both problems on my MacBook Pro, and the G5 had the reboot glitch. I won't update the other machines untill these problems are resolved by the OEMs.
Of the two major hiccups out there, this link indicates Quicktime's update is the source of the inability to restart machines, fixed by deleting startup items, I believe. I had this reboot problem also.
http://www.macworld.com/news/2006/05/24/cs2quicktime/index.php
Accrobat's freezing the system, the question at hand, is a result of the Security Update, fixed by rolling back to a pre-Security Update state using Archive & Install re-installation of the OS. Archive & Install does not erase your files or network settings.
Apple has released two products that fouled these systems. Bad Quality Assurance I think. I am not sure if the Security Update problem is an Apple or an Adobe software problem, i.e., Adobe may have not followed some software guidance. I am certain both companies are aware of the problem, but I am uncertain of the fix for Acrobat. We probably do need to update for security, but I can't live without Acrobat. So I will wait it out without the Security Update.

How do i fix my photoshop cs2 for windows 7?

I got a new comp thats is running windows 7 and installed my photoshop cs2 software and at first everything seemed fine until i noticed some differences in the performance. When i try to draw witht he brush tool it is way to slow, for example i draw a line and i pick up the mouse but the photoshop is still drawing the line that should have been done in one mouse stroke. This is very annoying and it makes it difficult to draw and create things. Also the registration form pops up every single time i open photoshop and even though i keep registering or click do not register that window just keeps showing up. My computer has 8GB of ram and 1 TB of hard drive so its not a memory issue. If anyone knows any solution please help.

You are not running as administrator, I think, which may be required and the only way to properly work and register. Also check for compatibility mode settings, UAC and DEP, all of which may require to be adjusted for a legacy app like PS CS2 to run properly. Also turn off Aero and switch to a conventional visual theme. The brush issue may be related to that or is a more generic problem with your graphics card and mouse config, but since you didn't provide any info on that, it will be hard for anyone to advise.

Problemas con Photoshop Album 2.0 y Photoshop CS2

Hola,
Antes tenia photoshop Album 2.0 y hotoshop CS, y desde Album 2.0 podia ir por la opción editar con photoshop al CS2 directamente, en cambio desde que instale el CS2 me ha desaaparecido esta opcion y no puedo ir al CS2 de inguna forma. ¿alguien sabe a que se debe?

Buenos Dias, me sucedio un grave problema.
La semana pasada cree un diseno en photoshop CS por nombre (index.psd) y guardaba de lo mas
normal. El pasado lunes instale el Photoshop CS2 y ayer estaba trabajando con mi diseno y es
algo muy habitual que a cada momento este guardando para prevenir. Ayer mismo cree otro
diseno partiendo del anterior pero en este caso lo llame (contenido.psd) al igual guarde
cada modificacion que hacia y no me generaba ningun tipo de problemas, despues de trabajar
en photoshop cerre mis archivos y el programa y todo normal.
Hoy cuando fui a abrir mi carpeta donde estaban los dos archivos, pues no estaban y lo peor
del caso es que en ningun lado de windows se encontro, inclusive el jefe de seguridad de la
empresa donde trabajo, instalo un programa para recuperar archivos y aprecio solamente
(index.psd) pero totalmente corrumpido, es decir no servia y el otro archivo (contenido.psd)
jamas aparecio. Al parecer se elminaron por completo y mas nadie toca mi ordenador. Estoy
segura que ayer guarde todos los archivos antes de irme...
Quisiera que me ayudaran en este caso, nose si es algo que trae esta nueva version del CS2
que me borra los archivos.. Les agradeceria muchisimo.
