Reinstalling CS2 from downloaded 3 x .exe files (due to activation issues

I downloaded the 3 files from Adobe to reinstall CS2 but after disk 1 it asks for disk 2. If I click the exe file on the hard drive it wil not work. If I burn a disk adn put in the disks as requested it wil not work. Any help would be welcome - loading onto an XP system that had a correupted drive. Thanks

the 2nd file extracts to an incorrect directory.
to resolve, move each extracted disk's files to the directory created when the first disk extracts.  ie, extract all 3 files.  move all the disk2 and disk3 extracted files to the directory created when extracting disk 1.

    reinstall of cs2 from download worked but illustrator wont launch, other programs working fine

    I have a similar problem. I reinstalled CS2 but for the time being just chose to install Illustrator from the package. That was successful up until the point that I tried to launch or open the program. I get the following pop-up box every time:
    Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
    Runtime Error!
    Program:...rator CS2\Support Files\Contents\Windows\Illustrator.exe
    This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information.
    Windows also says:
    The color scheme has been changed.
    The following program has performed an action that requires Windows to temporarily
    change the color scheme to Windows Vista Basic.
    Program: Adobe Illustrator
    Publisher: Adobe Systems, Inc.
    Process identifier (PID): 4064
    Windows will automatically change the color scheme back to
    Windows Vista Aero when this program or other programs performing similar
    actions are no longer running.
    Please decode. Will it be impossible for me to get it up and running? I need to work with it for a class that has already started.
    If I have to buy a new cs suite (or just the illustrator as I only need that for now), what is the best package for a student?

  • Is there any way I can convert a .exe file to .iso on my MacBook Air? I'm trying to install Windows via BootCamp but the download from Microsoft is a .exe file which does me no good.

    I'm trying to install Windows 8 via Boot Camp, but the download from Microsoft is a .exe file so when I go to create the bootable USB drive, it fails. I've read some of the other threads about this topic, but I want to know if there is any way to convert to .iso without having to find someone's Windows computer to borrow. Can anyone help?

    No. You would require a PC in order to run the executable which is an installer, not a disc image or an archive.

    Hi,
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
    Open Console in Applications>Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when trying to open CS2.

  • Downloaded Firefox v5 .exe file does not open (have downloaded twice now)

    Downlaod and tried to start the ,exe file. Cursor span for a few seconds and then nothing.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Problem installing CS2 from download.

    I was attempting to re-install Adobe CS1 but could not get it to re-activate.  I called Adobe support and was directed to download the CS2 suite from their site.  I downloaded it and attempted to install.  The filenames are a little different than those referenced in the installation instructions but everything went perfect until it ask me to insert CD #2.  The extraction process extracted the program files to different folders on my c: drive so there are no actual CD's.  I don't understand why the install routine cannot find or be directed to the next set of extracted files.  This has gotten very frustrating.  Can someone please help me?  I downloaded the following:
    CS2_install_Win.pdf  -- installation instructions
    CreativeSuiteCS2Disc1.exe
    CreativeSuiteCS2Disk2.exe
    CreativeSuiteCS2Disk3.exe
    CS_2.0_WWE_Extras_1.exe
    VCS2.zip
    thanks for your help,
    tom

    Before I start copying files............when I extracted the files the process created the following folder structure:
    C:\Creative Suite
              |_
                  Adobe Creative Suite 2.0
                                 |_
                                    Adobe InDesign 2.0
                                    Adobe Version Cue 2.0
    C:\Creative Suite CS2
              |_
                 Adobe Creative Suite 2.0
                                |_
                                   Adobe Illustrator CS2
                                   Adobe Photoshop CS2
                                   etc
                                   etc
    C:\CS_2.0_WWE_Extras_2
    Where do I need to move files from/to?
    thanks, tom

  • After downloading the5.0 exe file, i don't get the page(browser) as shown in it's ad. I mean: that red firefox multitab tab button on top left, & other things (shown with tabs & explained in ad feature). I get the old page(browser) i have.

    I clicked the blue link: "Upgrade Firefox to the latest version", below the firefox box. In the next page, i clicked a blue link: "Take a tour". In the 3rd page it shows how thenew browser will look like, with the new features.. explainedby tabs and all. I then clicked the download button.
    Next, i don't get that new-view browser. How is it? i get the old one i have already.
    I also downloaded Gujarati language tool-something.
    I then tried 4 times: total 5 times same download from red download buttons on different pages....
    Yet no result. I get the same old browser, with no new features.
    Also, I rebooted my pc. But to no effect.
    Help pl
    Thanx

    It looks that the update wasn't successful because your "More system details" list still shows a Firefox 3.6.18 version.
    If there are problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version.
    * Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • I´m not able to download the mac version of photoshop and lightroom, I always get a download of an .exe file, which I cannot handle.

    No mac version?

    Hi peter314,
    Please download CC desktop app via Free Creative Cloud | Download Adobe Creative Cloud free trial and then start downloading Photoshop and Lightroom.
    In case that also comes in .exe then download PS and LR via Adobe CC 2014 Direct Download Links – Creative Cloud 2014 Release | ProDesignTools
    PS: Please follow the VERY IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS or else the download will not start.

  • I had Lightroom 5, my computer crashed, I reinstalled it from Creative Cloud but it keeps saying my activation code is invalid, why?

    I had Lightroom 5, my computer messed up and I had to refresh it, well it deleted Lightroom so I reinstalled it again.  When I put the serial number in it keeps saying it is invalid.  Why? 

    If you're positive the information is correct, ask the issuing bank why the transaction is being rejected.
    You're getting this error because the store can not authorize the card with your bank.

    You have Acrobat Pro on your system. It will try to open PDFs, and of course it will fail. You must uninstall it. Then, you will need a PDF reader. So install Adobe Reader. That seems quite simple, but perhaps something is wrong. If anything goes wrong with these two steps (1) uninstall Acrobat Pro (2) install Adobe Reader, then please let us know the details.

  • Hi, how do I download acrobat professional 7?  I can't find a link for Mac. I reinstalled CS2 (as my old G4 Powerbook needed reinstalling), but it didn't install instal Acrobat or Distiller.  Adobe don't seem to have any contact mechanism.

    Hi, how do I download the replace CS2 acrobat professional 7?  I can't find a link for Mac. I reinstalled CS2 from adobe (as my old G4 Powerbook needed reinstalling), but it didn't install instal Acrobat or Distiller.  Adobe don't seem to have any contact mechanism.
    I put my old acrobat back onto my machine (from a backup made before reformatting) but it wants the box serial number.  when I did that however, the replacement CS2 photoshop, etc, wouldn't work, so I had to install it again, but then, you guessed it - acrobat won't work again.

    Hello Alan,
    Acrobat 7 is older version. Refer below link for more information and how to download.
    Error: Activation Server Unavailable | CS2, Acrobat 7, Audition 3
    Adobe has made earlier versions available for customer's convenience.
    Hope all will go well !!
