Help: I need to download an old version of PS - Have key

I'm rebuilding my PC from scratch and find that the PS CD has gone missing from the jewelcase.

I have the key.

I need to download the PS software. It's "CS 8" and the education version if it makes any difference for the key.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

You must be living in the future. The current version is CS 4 and CS 5 should be released next week. CS 8 will probably be released sometime around 2015. Most likely Adobe is still around and sell you the disk or provide a download from their site, just as they do for Photoshop now.

I thought that looked strange. I took it from the purchase invoice (9/16/2004) with the line item of

"Photoshop CS 8 Windows"

Isn't PS 7 widely used by people that are even cheaper than I am?

FWIW, I still have the email address to which I registered this copy. I don't suppose Adobe will let me d/l 5 year old software.

I'm pissed. I've managed literally thousands of bits of software at work and have a system and have never lost anything. My system failed me last night.

The Photoshop generation following PS 7 was initially called CS 8. It was later re-named simply Adobe Photoshop CS. (CS = Creative Suite)

There are several places on the web where you can download CS 8. Just Google for it. What you will get is a time-limited demo. For permanent use you must purchase the license.

I'd suggest you download the demo and use your key to activate it for permanent use. If it doesn't work, you aren't out anything.

You are probably looking for Photoshop CS which is Ver8. CS2=Ver9, CS3=Ver10. Unfortunately, I do not have a copy of that.

You can piss all your life if you wish. When you stop pissing then get your self a copy then use the key you have to register it.

And now you can piss again.
