Hi,
I've been using the Adobe CS2 suite for many years without problems. My MDD
had crashed recently and after I put my recent CCC backup back on my
crashed volume I cannot use CS2 anymore. The app tells me that my trial
period has expired but when I try to activate it again no cigar. The server
is not online ...
What gives? Isn't good ole CS2 free nowadays? Any comments? Thanks a lot.
Best regards, Jörg.

I gave up trying to leverage freebies when I decided to at least try to be
serious about what I was doing.
I could not afford the Adobe programs I wanted. Suffered years of
disappointment. Thought I would have to save to buy just one. Actually did
get Dreamweaver CS2. Got some Adobe access through the University, taking
classes ( you could register as a Senior guest perhaps?)
Wound up using GIMP, work got done but not in a happy way. And open source
video proggies never worked for me.
I accept Adobe Cloud as the blessing it is. Cheap enough because it keeps
me from doing stupid things with the money.
I recommend it.
Having programs that ACTUALLY WORK , can do the many things better since
CS2, with support is VERY satisfying.
YOUR WORK WILL GREATLY IMPROVE
YOU WILL HAVE A LOT LESS TO WORRY ABOUT

I would think that you simply have to reinstall CS2 from the original download. When I did so when it became free several years ago, I installed it on my old G4 Gigabit, a later G4 1.25GHz PowerBook and even on my late 2009 Mac Mini running Snow Leopard. The original download included the license number that makes the installation permanent.

I did not have any problems moving my CS2 from a G5 back to a G4 a few months ago.
Adobe did changed the old link to the CS2 download page with the needed activation numbers. However the activation numbers on the new page are the same as the old page.
The new link is:
http://www.adobe.com/downloads/other-downloads.html
You can download a copy of the old Adobe CS2 page from my Dropbox at:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/p2y6e0kdtdytgvd/Adobe%20CS2%20%20D ownloads.zip?dl=0
Maybe reinstall CS2??? Good luck, glen

Thanks for your comments.
I found the free downloads albeit not in Dutch, the Dutch apps were Windows
only. So I downloaded Illustrator and Photoshop in German, my original
language. Had to downgrade Photoshop one version, though.
I first installed the complete CS2 but it didn't contain Acrobat Pro and my
original version wouldn't start anymore after that. So I went back to
separate PS and AI and my Dutch Acrobat works again. So I'm kinda OK again.
