Adobe giving away free copies of CS 2 (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, etc...)

[Caramac]

Just go here: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?pid=4485850&e=cs2_downloads and register (it's free). You'll find all CS2 ready to download with the corresponding keys.

 

I don't know for how long it's going to be up so grab it while it's hot.

 

It probably should be added that this only works for Windows and Older Macs. This will not work on Intel based Macs.

 

Lazy copy n' paste job from other forums I visit.

 

What the man says.

It worked about an hour ago, I would imagine its getting some pretty heavy traffic.

[Bobby Hundreds]

Cheers though.

[Bobby Hundreds]

Yeah I had cs3 but my harddrive died and I lost it, don't fancy paying out for a new one.

Nice. Does this include a version of Lightroom?

Doesn't look like it, check here for a list of what they are offering.

 

FREE Adobe CS2 Downloads

Does the Creative Suite download above give you everything else in that list on the second link?

[Caramac]

Ok :/

 

So I get to work this morning and take a quick look at the thread where I originally got this info from and it appears that this has been one big fuck up on adobes part. It seems its not meant to have gone out for free after all :(

 

So it looks like someone at Adobe messed up.

 

On behalf of Adobe Systems Incorporated ...

 

You have heard wrong! Adobe is absolutely not providing free copies of CS2!

 

What is true is that Adobe is terminating the activation servers for CS2 and that for existing licensed users of CS2 who need to reinstall their software, copies of CS2 that don't require activation but do require valid serial numbers are available. (Special serial numbers are provided on the page for each product download.)

 

This thread is where the info originally came from, obviously the title has been changed by a mod.

Adobe not giving away free anything - NeoGAF

 

And this is another thread which has since sprung up on the subject.

Adobe's CS2 non-giveaway fiasco - NeoGAF

 

What a fuck up

I don't know whether to laugh or cry. :(

[Bobby Hundreds]

Does this mean it will no longer work. Or is it too late for adobe now I've downloaded it and activated it.

[Caramac]

Nan, you'll be fine. It will still work.

 

Its their mistake. HERE HAVE SOME FREE SOFTWARE .....No wait, that wasn't what we meant.
