Adobe Tech support sent me to a download of CS2 files but there appears to be no way to actually initiate the download...

How can I tell if I am running iTunes 32-bit, or 64-bit after install?
Hello,
Downloaded latest iTunes-64 bit edition (using I.E) on my Vista Ultimate 64-bit PC. When iTunes is launched how can I tell which version I am running? (I initially installed the 32-bit version long ago).
Thanks in advance!iTunes is a 32bit application.
The only difference is the 64bit installer includes the drivers needed for Vista 64. -
I purchased Adobe Creative Suite C2 and have been using it for years on the same computer without any problems with using it. Recently upon opening Photoshop I received a pop up window saying due to Adobe Software security we need you to activate your CS2 software. I tried, phone activation, web activation, nothing is working. I have the serial number and my Adobe account information. Any suggestions?

Problems Installing Adobe CS2 software
Hi,
I purchased my iMac aswell as Adobe CS2 software back in September. I started installing the CS2 software (4 discs) and by the last disc, installation froze and the drive sounded like it was in a continuous search on the disc. So I had to reboot and eject the disc. This continued for 2 more tries. I contacted Adobe and they said it was a disc problem, so I exchanged my CS2 for another CS2 disc set. I completely erased the previous CS2 applications, reinstalled OSX and tried again. This time it was the 2nd of 4 discs that just got skipped over - nothing even installed from that disc - the computer just spat it out and said: "disc 2 complete, please insert disc 3..."
Anyone think I have drive or hardware issues???Hi Bushfire.
I had a very similar problem when I installed CS 1 under OS X 10.3 on an iBook. In that case it turned out that the version of Stuffit Expander supplied with the OS was too old. (The stuffit engine is, I believe used to unpack some or all of the goodies from the installer). After upgrading Stuffit Expander to - I think to version 7 at the time - the install went perfectly.
OS X 10.4 doesn't have any version of stuffit expander included with it at all. Have a look on versiontracker.com to download if you haven't allready got it. Could be worth a try.
I have subsequently installed CS 2 on my iMac G5, and everything went OK -so it CAN work.
Good luck - and let me know if it works.

Buying old Adobe CS2 software - upgrade?
Hello, I recently purchased a copy of Adobe Creative Suite Premium 2 off of ebay. Auction went through fine and I received the software and the serial number - which i promtly went to the Adobe site, signed and registered under my name. Got a confirmation email from adobe "Thank you for purchasing and registering your copy of Adobe Creative Suite 2 Premium,,," etc.
Am I good to go with legally downloading / using the CS2 software off Adobe's site?
Also what versions of later CS can CS2 be upgraded to?
Thanks for your help!As far as downloading/using CS2, see the following posting for a link to information:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/5612435#5612435
CS2 premium is too old to upgrade to any of the latest CS suite versions. -
I am trying to "personalize" my cs2 software online download with the serial number from my original boxed cd set and it didn't work. I tried using the download serial number and that doesn't work either. Need help!
I understand that you have also used the download link & serial number from Adobe - CS2 Downloads, if still the CS2 is not working, then please refer to the system requirement for e.g System requirements | Photoshop
The issue can be that the present operating system might not be compatible with the CS2.

CS2 software, CS1 serial number
I've been using CS2. All suites open as CS2. I had to provide the serial number for CS2 before I could purchase an upgrade to CS5.5. Now that I'm ready to install the upgrade, the installation indicates I do not have a valid product to qualify for the upgrade. I checked, re-checked that I entered the serial number correctly. With dashes... Without dashes... Did the online chat thing. I'm told I have a CS1 serial number, yet the software says CS2. What's going on here?
Ok , so here is the finding ,
I checked your case and found that under your record you have 3 product registered :- Production Studio Premuim 1.0 , Adobe Premium Pro 2.0 and the Audition 3.0
The serial number that you gave to the technician( as per case note) is for the Production Studio Premuim 1.0 hence he was insisting it to the CS1
@ Mylenium :- Please help me out with this , The Production Studio Premuim 1.0 include Adobe After Effects 7.0 Professional, Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0, Adobe Photoshop CS2, Adobe Audition 2.0, Adobe Encore DVD 2.0, and Adobe Illustrator CS2 software
The question is IS IT A VALID UPGRADE/ UPSELL PATH , I checked but found that it is (cpsid_92048 ) but not sure I have cheched the right document so , I am forwarding it to the concern team but would appreciate if you can contact support and explain the situation , if requird share the forum thread. -
Can I run the old Adobe CS2 software on a new Macbook?
Can I run the old Adobe CS2 software on a new Macbook?
I am planning on buying the new white 13" macbook online from apple.
Although I have the old CS2 Adobe software.
I was wondering if anyone knows if the new macbook is able to run that old software.
If anyone knows, please let me know, as I am planning on purchasing soon!
Thanks in advance,
HeatherYes, it will run OK. Before buying Design Premium CS4, I used Photoshop CS2 on my late-2008 MacBook Pro (under OSX 10.5.6 through 10.5.8) without any problems.

When I try an update I-tunes the software tells me the older version of Apple Software Update cannot be removed. Contact your technical support group. Help!!!
Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time? -
Hello , just joined the community.... need some advice on free and reliable antivirus software for my ipod5. Hope to hear from you soon:-)
Although I would never use the word "impossible," there is currently no known malware capable of infecting an iPod Touch, unless it has been jailbroken (ie, hacked to allow apps downloaded from somewhere other than the App Store). There are some anti-virus apps on the App Store, but don't waste your money on any of them... there's nothing for them to find, and they can only scan things external to your iPod anyway, such as e-mail or Dropbox.
Also, note that I would caution you not to believe that all App Store apps are 100% safe, as Jackslayer has implied. Certainly they have been vetted by Apple, and no real malware has ever made it into the App Store. And all apps are sandboxed, limiting what a malicious app could do even if it did make it into the App Store. Still, exercise caution and common sense... if an app requests access to data that you don't think it should, or that you don't want to trust it with, deny the request. -
Crazy to install CS2 on Quad Core 64 bit Windows 7 notebook?
I've been a video producer/director/editor since 1970 and have witnessed most all the progress and insanity of the "corporate wars" to dominate video production and later, video editing. I no longer see any reason to differentiate between still photography, video production, editing, web authoring, print production, graphics, CGI, CAD etc...ad nauseum. My dream has long been to have one very powerful laptop that could do most everything that a creative person desired on location anywhere in the world.
My new notebook is an ASUS Quad Core G71GX with 6 GB RAM - an Nvidia Geoforce GTX 260M - and 2 - 500 GB, 7200 rpm hard drives - Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit OS. These days I shoot most video using a Canon SX1 IS at 1080 30p and the files are playing back beautifully on the 1920x1400 display at full frame rate. So for me that covers the basics. I will be upgrading from Windows 7 Home Premium to Ultimate shortly. Does anyone have issues/questions about the platform?
As to the software . . . I have been using Adobe stuff for 20 years or so.but did not get into their video editing products until Premiere 6.5. Than I jumped in with both feet and became a beta tester for the CS2 video collection. I still have my complimentary Premiere Pro 2.0 and it still works on my older XP Pro notebooks.
But now we are here in 2010 and all the major PC platforms are running 64 bit Operating Systems and I just figure that I should hold out for a true 64 bit Master Collection [which many people call CS5]. In the meantime I decided to install my CS2 Creative Suite and Premiere Pro 2.0 just so I could have the benefit of these programs while I am waiting for the 64 bit to release.
I purchased my CS2 back in 2005 as a download and last night made the attempt to install it onto the ASUS. As expected the serial number did not work so I called Adobe Installation support and got started after they prompted me for the "challenge" code. When I entered it the installation began nicely UNTIL the first folder [CS_2.0_UE_Ret_D1] finished loading and UP POPPED a window saying "Please insert CD #2" with only an OK button. Well, I didn't have any CDs because the suite was delivered as a download way back when and there seems to be no way to get to Disk 2 folder.
I finally decided to Quit the install when up pops a window that says [paraphrasing]. Your Photoshop program on Disc 1 has been verified and so try again to install. I said OK and up pops a window with all the various programs and the option to select Install. I selected each one [except GoLive because I now have Dreamweaver CS4] and proceeded. I sort of kluged my way through the transition from D1 to D2 to D3 to D4 folders and by all indications had a successfully installed, registered and activated CS2 suite on the ASUS notebook. Restarted the machine.
Opened Photoshop and up comes an error message "Your Adobe Photoshop user name, organization or serial number is missing or invalid. The application cannot continue and must now exit" "OK", which I pressed and Photoshop closed. Checked the other CS2 programs and none of them would open.
I would appreciate any pointers on how to get CS2 Creative Suite to install properly since Adobe Tech Support says such installation help is out of date and recommended this forum.
BTW: I run Videography Lab and am the "seminal author of videography". OCT 1972 American Cinematographer. I have a different take on the meaning of videography than most folks. After 38 years of research and contemplation I believe "Videography means 'I know to write' or conversely 'writing my knowing'" The platform that I've been talking about is the technology tool that enables such communication in "the Age of Videography" [Miller Freeman Publishing - 1996].
Call me crazy and than help me get this sorted out

PS: Does anyone beside me expect a sudden and dramatic shootout between Final Cut Studio & Adobe Creative Suite soon?Hi Michael--
Upon continued research we found your statement "CS 2 isn't compatible with Windows 7 32-bit no less 64-bit." not quite true. We grant you that, in it's raw state, Windows 7 will not install, activate, register etc. CS2 programs. That's been the Adobe position for quite a while.
Now that we have Windows 7 in hand and can play we found that if you have Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate edition you can acquire for $89.95 and download/install in an hour or so "Windows Virtual PC" and "Windows XP Mode".[Note: This feature is not available on Home editions].
We purchased the platform and once it is installed we had a "Windows XP platform" on our Windows 7 machine. From that point forward the installation of CS2 and many other of our old favorite programs was a snap. We've opened and worked with Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign etc. with no problems.
And, by the way, Premiere Pro 2.0 intalled easily on Windows 7. We're testing it now with some sub-1080p projects.
As to the long nagging problem of Adobe Installer not recognizing the downloaded CS2 CAB files during installation, we worked around by just saying OK when the installer asked for the next disc and immediately clicked on the desired disc in a seperate exlorer window which contained all the download files.
So that's the workaround for us. Now we wait to see who wins the race to enchant users with 64 bit editing and imaging suites.
Thanks for all your help.

After installing Firefox and some of its added software, NO SAFARI app.
After installing and using Firefox and download some optional additions, including a password generator and flash suppressor, as well as a couple more recommended, I no long see my original desktop and cannot bring up Safari. Additionally, my Internet Connection at home stopped working. The latter could be some other problem, but the IDP Cox could not solve the problem over the phone and wont be to my house for three days. Now I am in a Library where Firefox worked, but Safari did not.
The ICON for Safair is not on the Dock and under applications it does not look right. When I use that one anyway, I get an error message that some essential parts are missing and I have to reinstall Safari. That seems to be drastic.
If this was Windows I guess that I might try to go back in time using the application that allows you to go far enough back by date to find a time when the computer worked.
What do I do in Apple? Obviously, I am a newer user and also fiddle around too much, I feel.
Any help will be appreciated. I guess I will have to come back to the library or to a coffee shop to read it on FirefoxWell, installing Firefox or any add-ons would certainly not cause this, since they are completely unrelated to system-level changes. You had to have done something to cause this, so I'm guessing that you fiddled with some things without know what you were doing or the ramifications of doing it.
For your information, that is a bad idea. Apple does quite a bit to hide the underpinnings of the OS from users, since there are over 168,000 files on the Mac, most of which you cannot see. But that doesn't stop people from deleting things randomly or clicking on the wrong file and hosing their system. You should try to stifle that urge to fiddle around unless you know exactly what you're doing, why, and what could happen if it doesn't work.
So, bottom line is that you'll have to reinstall Safari, and it does get a bit involved.
1. Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove the receipt "Safarixxx.pkg", where xxx is any series of numbers following the word Safari.
2. Get your Mac OS X install disc and insert it into the drive. Browse the contents to the Optional Installs folder, then find the Safari installer inside of that. Double-click on the Safari package to start the installation process. If it gives you an error message, post back with exactly what it says.
If it finishes the installation, quit the installer and go to the Apple menu on the top left of your screen and select Software Update; it should tell you that there's a newer version of Safari and ask if you want to install it -- say yes to that.
When it's done, quit Software Update, go to HD/Applications and look for the Safari icon; click and drag the icon to the Dock, then try to launch Safari. If that works, eject your Mac OS X install disc and you should be set. Just don't fiddle around.
