Illustrator CS 2 activation

hello I have an Adobe Illustrator CS 2 software installed on a windows XP machine. As I need to transfer the licence on a windows 7 machine. I tried to unistall it from the Xp machine deactivating it. I'm not able to deactivate it.
I read that activation server for CS 2 products is probably down and so I also read that you can download program from link indicated in the topic.
I accessed to that webpage but i cannot find Illustrator.
Can you please help me in activation or in downloading the version that not require activation?
Thank you

  • Batch won't run unless Illustrator CS3 is active window?

    I'm hoping someone can help me out with this as it's driving me nuts. Basically I'm trying to batch an action I made in CS3 to run on about 700 illustrator files.
    Everything runs just fine and dandy until I switch from Illustrator to another program (Firefox, photoshop, bridge, anything other than illustrator), once illustrator is no longer the active window, the batch process stops. When I make illustrator the active window again, the batch starts again. This worked perfect in CS2 and I never had this problem until CS3.
    This is a huge pain as I can't work on anything else while keeping the batch running in the background.
    Here's the nitty gritty details:
    XP SP2, Illustrator CS3, smoking fast machine
    Action was created in actions palette to do the following:
    Unlock All > Select All > Create Outlines > Convert to Grayscale
    Ran the batch via the actions palette, choose "Save and Close" and "log errors to a file".
    I've restarted Illustrator, restarted the machine, recreated the action, broke the folder into smaller folders with less files. It's making my Tuesday feel like a Monday.
    I've search all over and found nothing. There was one post here on the adobe forums, but it was from October and it never got answered. If you have a solution you will be my hero!
    Thanks!

    Yes, I have absolutely seen this! At our office we batch process Illustrator files to JPEG very frequently, and it's a huge nuisance to have Illustrator block the system during the batch processing. Everyone here is on XP SP2 as well, and we all have this issue. In fact, trying to switch in and out of Illustrator while it's batching can cause the application to crash fairly regularly for us.
    I can confirm that the Mac version of Illustrator CS3 does *not* have this problem, as I am batch-exporting right now with Illustrator in the background on my Mac. (Mac OS X 10.5.2, Illy 13.0.2)
    A fix for this would be most appreciated, Adobe!

  • Kuler in Illustrator CC not active

    The Kuler Panel in Illustrator CC doesn't react, it is grey. Can't import Kuler themes. I'm signed in in Illustrator as well as online in Kuler. It is possible to work in the Kuler App online. What's wrong with Illustrator?

  • Illustrator CS5 Mac - slow opening EPS from SMB share

    Hi folks,
    Have a customer that is having an issue with opening EPS files in Adobe Illustrator CS5 15.0.2 (all updates applied) on a Core i5 iMac (8 GB RAM) under Mac OS X 10.6.6.
    It will take minutes to open up a larger size EPS file (98 MB in one test case extensively). I can copy this same file to the local disk in a matter of a second or two, and the file opens in 5-6 seconds, as opposed to several minutes. Looking at Activity Monitor, I don't see significant CPU utilization but network througput pegs at 4.2 MBit. I've confirmed the switch and the iMac are both seeing 1000Mbit, full duplex.
    Interestingly enough, if I take said .EPS file and save it as an .AI file, and copy that up to the server (couple seconds, file size drops to 68 MB), I am able to open the file off the server in seconds. It's only when it's EPS format is there a problem. Of course, the customer's output device RIP will not accept anything other than .EPS, so changing workflows and file formats isn't an option.
    I duplicated this performance issue on multiple machines on their network, so it's not just an issue with one computer, but all of them. I am not privy to the details of the server, have an email in to ask.
    I know that Adobe generally does not recommend working directly off a file server; however I'd venture to say that most 3+ person design/production groups do exactly that. If .AI works correctly, can't see why .EPS wouldn't...
    --Robert

    Replying to my own post...
    It was Suitcase Fusion 3 and its Illustrator CS5 auto-activation plugin. Disabled the plugin, performance delays go away.

  • 6533 (DIO-32HS) card performance figures

    Hello all,
    I have a question about the fast data transfer using PC computer and 6533
    (PCI-DIO-32HS) card.
    I understand that the DMA is the bottleneck in transfer. The DIO 6533 manual
    offers
    some figures (10Ms/s for some PC mother boards) about performance when using
    pattern generation
    mode. Are these figures reliable ?
    Is it possible to obtain 10Ms/s performance ? The shortest timeslice in
    6533 is 50ns, which is enough but how
    about the DMA ?
    I'd appreciate overall data throughput figures in function of a certain PC
    configuration.
    Thanks in advance,
    Sami Laitinen

    Hi Adikus
    I have had the same problem recently - losing data points every time I transfer a half-buffer when acquiring in burst mode. Some application notes I found useful from the development library were:
    Measurement Hardware > Digital Input/Output > Handshaking >'Handshaking I/O Issues Using the DIO-32HS/6533 Device'
    Measurement Hardware > Digital Input/Output > General >'High-Speed Digital Considerations'
    and
    Measurement Hardware > Digital Input/Output > General > 'Digital I/O Applications'
    The problem you are having is due to the fact that you are not using the REQ and ACQ lines. The ACQ line is controlled by the PCI 6533 card and signals when the card is ready for a transfer. If you have a look at this line during acquisition you should see that
    it is set low briefly each time that you transfer a half buffer.
    You need to monitor the ACQ line and pause your external card from trying to input when the ACK line is low. I've added a FIFO between my instrument and the PCI 6533 card. I've found that I require this to be capable of holding 16k samples but I arrived at this value through testing alone (I am acquiring 2 bytes at 1MHz). My testing also illustrated how other activity on the PC can affect the acquisition, e.g. saving a large file would cause a pause.
    I've posted a couple of questions relating to this recently too which might be useful for you to check out.
    Regards,
    Cheryl

  • How do I download one program out of the creative suite once a trial has expired???

    My trial of adobe illustrator was still active when I downloaded my creative suite for mac. However once my trial has expired, the serial number for my pack doesn't work when I type this in to license the software?

    CC doesn't use serial numbers. It's solely based on your Adobe ID. If you have a redemption code from a prepaid voucher, refer to this:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/redemption-code-help.html
    If the programs wrongfully request a serial number, then this would be relevant:

  • Can I have a decreased / cheaper monthly priced membership for some time, by keeping active only Photoshop CC, Illustrator CC, InDesign CC and Acrobat?

    Hello, and good evening from Athens, Greece.
    I would like to ask a question concerning my CC membership.
    I’ve started 1 and a half year ago by paying 29,99 € for the entire CC (all programs). Now, it’s 49,99 € and I’m having a really difficult time to keep it this way. I’m living in a country which is in the middle of crisis and my profession as a graphic designer, is not an exception to reduced spendings on advertising.
    My question is, can I have a decreased / cheaper monthly priced membership for some time, by keeping active only Photoshop CC, Illustrator CC, InDesign CC and Acrobat? I don’t need for now the other apps. Can I have a membership plan only for those applications? I would very much appreciate your respond, a help and a solution to my issue.
    Thank you very much.
    Michael.
    P.S. Forgot to tell, that I have a purchased Design Standard CS3 Suite. If this helps.

  • I moved Creative Suite 5 to a new computer, deactivated on the old, activated on the new, but only Illustrator and Photoshop will open. The rest of the suite will not open. How do I fix this?

    I moved Creative Suite 5 from my old MacBook Pro to my new MacBook Air and followed the instructions for deactivating on the old and activating on the new but only Photoshop and Illustrator will work. I need to also access InDesign, Acrobat, Dreamweaver and Fireworks. Is there a way to fix this? Problem with the MacBook Air is that is doesn't have a disc drive so I had to transfer via external hard drive.
    Cheers.

    The problem is that you need to install CS5 from an installation file or installation disc. You can't just copy files because there are lots of supplementary files that don't get put in the right location.
    You'll need to use the Adobe Cleaner to remove all the stuff on your new computer:
    Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    Then download an installer for CS5:

    InDesign CS5 is not opening after deactivation/activation. How can I fix this? Illustrator and Photoshop open and are working fine. Please help!

    First of all, thank you for replying so promptly to my posts this morning!
    I can't remember how I got the software on his computer, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't through migration assistant.
    I was looking into doing an uninstall of InDesign and a fresh install. However, I initially downloaded the CS5 suite digitally and I can't find out how I am able to perform a fresh install of InDesign. Do you know where I find this info or gain access to download just InDesign again? I can't seem to find anything in my Adobe account that shows where I might do another download.

  • How to get the active document file name using illustrator CS2 plugin code?

    I wanna take file name from active document using illustrator plugin CS2. Plz anybody help me..
    Thanks in advance..

    AIDocumentSuite::GetDocumentFileSpecification() should get you that information. Note that it will only work properly if you've already saved the document (or opened it from a file). I'm not sure what the result looks like if you're calling that on a new, unsaved file.

  • Activated fonts not appearing in Illustrator?

    I'm running Illustrator CS on a Dual PPC G5 running OS 10.3.9. I have an OpenType font active (using Linotype FontExplorer to manage fonts) and can use the font in all programs except the Adobe ones (Illustrator and Photoshop). Why would the font not appear there? I need it for a logo that I have to manipulate into a vector graphic, but I can't do anything if it won't appear in the type menu. Any ideas as to what's going on and how I can fix this?

    Christine,
    Did you by any chance create the fonts yourself? OpenType fonts shouldn't cause any more trouble than Type 1 if they are correctly made and named.
    If their names show up incorrectly or if they don't show up at all, it's probably because someone did something wrong in Font Info when he was making the font. If you make use of the Build Names thingummy in FontLab Studio it can save you a lot of this kind of trouble. I have done quite a bit of this kind of work - adding Icelandic characters to fonts and that sort of thing - and find that it's absolutely essential to do things right if you want to avoid problems in FontExplorer.
    It can sometimes happen too that fonts are made specifically for Windows, in which case they may need to be edited and re-saved for Mac before you can use them so that they work perfectly. You can often get a Windows font to work well on a Mac but you should keep your eyes open for glitches all the same.
    And another thing, you may occasionally need to restart Illy when you've made changes to fonts in FontExplorer. This doesn't happen often these days but still crops up occasionally all the same.
