CS3 extended cost $1000 and was available for download for more than 10 years. Adobe has official stopped all CS3 support. Adobe has removed that web application from their web site.

That Web Application would then give them access to the download and provides them with a new serial number they could use to install the download of CS3 that does not have to activated to work. Old customers could provide their Old CS3 serial number to an Adobe web application. In such cases, desperate situations do invite desperate solutions, as seems to be what you’ve already learned.If you did not download the CS3 Installer that does not need to be Activated that Adobe made available to their old customers around the time Adobe was retiring their CS3 activation servers you are out of luck.

Unfortunately, it is true that with activation of any software product comes the potential case of some users not easily being able to activate due to their location.
Then, obtain from them the toll-free telephone number to call from Chile for support of issues other than activation. What I would likely try first is calling the same number provided for activation support in Chile, but I am assuming that is a number where personal assistance is provided. Perhaps it is expected that you will just call the toll-free number in the USA? I’m not sure. I am suprised to find that Adobe provides no telephone support numbers listed for any area of South America other than Brazil, for the Portuguese language version of Photoshop. Adobe really needs to design a process that permits a user to backup and restore their activation state so that they can basically do a localized recovery of their activation after a system failure, after temporarily using another PC for Photoshop via an activation transfer, etc. It is relatively uncommon that one would not have at least a telephone near their computer these days, but that does still happen, and that necessitates an alternative approach to handling activation transfer problems. While a normal or repair activation can be performed by telephone (For Chile, Toll free: 800 200634, Direct (toll number): 10 8), a deactivation/activation transfer stupidly requires an internet connection.

Of a greater concern than registration is that of activation or, more specifically for PS, deactivation or an activation transfer. One thing I would advise if you do not already do this, is to burn a duplicate copy of any software installation CDs that you have, and keep those copies in a safe place separate from the originals. Obviously a download makes no sense for your situation if you can only use a telephone to get an internet connection, although it isn’t clear how you are accessing the internet to use this forum. But, if you were to lose your installation CD, having your product registered might still find Adobe shipping you a replacement after you contacted them through whatever means works best.
I do empathize with your situation, and certainly the lack of support you are provided in Chile would seem to make debatable the value of registering the software.

Assuming you have not registered the software yet, since you’ve not successfully installed and activated it, you may need to be prepared to provide Adobe with proof of purchase in which case I assume they’d tell you what they need and how to submit it to them. Telephone support for activation and installation issues is free. So, that suggests the eBay seller wasn’t selling a legitimate product unless the serial number just simply was bad for unknown reasons.įor a problem of the nature you’ve identified here, your only solution really is to contact Adobe for help.

Following Dead Boy’s suggest to choose the Trial Option, assuming all else works, will only buy you the 30-day trial period before still having to activate, so you’re not really gaining anything.ĭepending upon where you bought Photoshop CS3 at, you may be encountering the same problem another user here did: Although buying from a supposedly credible eBay retailer what appeared to be a legitimate, shrink-wrapped copy of Photoshop CS3, including the manual, CD, and serial number, the end result was the user learned from Adobe that the serial number was invalid.
