How do I enter CS6 license key when Adobe Application Manager immediately tries to authenticate against my expired Creative Cloud membership?

I have CS6 Master Suite installed along side my now-expired Creative Cloud apps (I am evaluating whether to renew my subscription at this time). Both CS6 and Creative Cloud are currently unlicensed due to a snafu with my educational license, but I have a new CS6 license that I am trying to register CS6 with. However, upon launching any CS6 program, Adobe Application Manager then launches and tells me that my Creative Cloud membership is now expired. How/where to I enter my CS6 license key? I have already tried entering my new license on my Adobe account profile > “My products and services”, and reinstalled CS6 applications from my original disk image (MasterCollection_CS6_LS16.dmg).
Thanks in advance,
Liz

Figured this one out from another thread, after which I was able to sign in again with my Adobe ID and my software was ready to use:
Windows:
Delete these folders
SLStore from C:\ProgramData\Adobe
SLCache from C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe
OOBE from C:\Users\(Your Username)\AppData\Local\Adobe
Mac:
Delete SLStore and SLCache from /Library/Application Support/Adobe
Delete OOBE from ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe

  • How do I open the updates window in "Adobe Application Manager"?

    How do I open the updates window in "Adobe Application Manager"? Or can I or should I....??
    I am a brand new Cloud member.  I heard of the Retina update.  Assuming this was where the updates would logically appear I went to the "Adobe Application Manager" app first.  Without closing the "Adobe Application Manager" I opened Photoshop and went to the help menu and selected "Updates..."; a second window opened in the already open "Adobe Application Manager".
    I selected update all.
    The result is below:
    DW CS6 12.1 Creative Cloud
    There was an error installing this update. Please quit and try again later. Error Code: U44M1I200

    Now, I closed the "Adobe Application Manager" and opened "Photoshop" again and again selected "Updates..." from the help menu.  The "Adobe Application Manager" opened again with just one window this time and the updates happened correctly.
    I was hoping one of the updates would be to the "Adobe Application Manager", I don't think so.
    So, If I were you I wouldn't select "Updates..." from an Adobe app unless the "Adobe Application Manager" is closed until they fix it...
    Current version: Adobe® Application Manager - Version 7.0.0.128 (7.0.0.128) Note the Two windows in the "Adobe Application Manager" in the attached image.

    The updates are currently available by going to Help>Updates within the Application.  Once you invoke the Updater, which is a component of the Adobe Application Manager, it will locate and apply the updates.  It looks like most of your updates have failed to install.  I would recommend you begin by trying to apply the updates that are available on our product update page at http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/ and seeing if you face the same difficulty.
    If you continue to experience problems with applying the updates then please review your installation log to determine the cause of the failure.  You can find details on how to locate and interpret the installation log at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.

  • How do I enter my license key for QT pro

    My computer contracted a virus. I had to reformat the hard drive. I downloaded QT. I purchased QT pro previously. How do I redownload without rebuying?

    You should be able to download and install QT 7 and then, under QT Menu, choose Registration and enter your code there and then quit and relaunch. That is all I did and it changed from QT to QT Pro.

  • How do I unistall Adobe Application Manager?

    Hello
    My Adobe Application Manager (AAM) is crashing so I can't download programs or updates from my Creative Cloud... I have been talking to Adobe on the phone, and they told me to unistall my AAM and then reinstall it. But how do I do that?

    You can download and install Adobe application manager from this link:
    For windows : http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4773
    Adobe Application Manager is required on your computer, as long as you have other Creative Cloud applications. Adobe Application Manager performs multiple functions within all of the Creative Cloud products. Adobe Application Manager is automatically removed when you uninstall all Adobe Creative Cloud products. Upon removal of the last product, the Adobe Application Manager is uninstalled.
    Important:  Adobe offers a Cleaner Tool, which removes the database entries but not the physical files associated with the installation.  Run the program uninstallers to remove all components.
    Remove Creative Cloud on Mac OS
    Double-click your hard drive.
    Go to Applications > Utilities > Adobe Installers.
    Run all of the Adobe uninstallers to remove all of the Adobe Creative Cloud applications.
    Remove Creative Cloud on Windows
    Click Start > Control Panel.
    Click Programs and Features.
    Select a Creative Suite application and click Uninstall.
    Repeat step 3 for all Creative Cloud applications.

  • Can I purchase CS6 apps if I opt out of the Creative Cloud membership?

    Q. Is it possible to purchase CS6 products after the CC apps have been released if I opt out of Creative Cloud membership?
    A. Yes. CS6 products can still be purchased on Adobe.com
    Note: Creative Cloud members are able to install both CC and CS6 apps as part of membership. See this link.

    To compile your mobile app for Android, iPhone, etc... go directly to PhoneGap Build

  • Entering the license key

    I purchased the Lightroom Mac 5 Version (DVD) but after installation I was not able to enter the license key. How I can do this....

    Licencekey wrote:
    on the dvd cover there is an serial number which should be the proof of the purchased license. When I start LR I get the information that I'm using the 30-day test version but I've purchased the product. When I log in to the adobe cloud I only can purchase (again?) an subscription but I want to use the one time license which I already bought.
    Nowhere do you state that you are entering the serial number, nor do you state what happens when you try to enter the serial number, which I believe is the question at hand.

  • How Do I get a License key for Trial version from the App Store?

    I downloaded a Trial version of Aperture 3.1.2 a few weeks ago from the App Store. I love it. Now I want to buy it, but, can't figure out how to get a license key from the App Store. When you start up Aperture Trial version, a 'nag' box comes up asking if you want to buy the application or continue using the trial version or Authorize (I guess that is what you would pick once you have the key). If I pick "Buy", the application opens Safari and takes me to the Apple online store, NOT the App store! At the Apple Store, you can buy the key for $199 or an upgrade from a previous version for $99. Whoopie! What is Apple thinking? The App store is selling Aperture for $79.99. I guess that means you don't get the box or written manuals (which I haven't used for any software in many years).
    So how do I get a license key for the App Store version? Do I just Go to the App Store, pay the money, download and install the program over again. Then transfer my trial version library somehow? Then deinstall the trial version? I'd love to buy and use Aperture for $79.99, but, I'm not willing to pay $199 for it.  Apple has me confused.
    Anybody have a clue?

    Thanks for the 1-800 call tip Allen.
    P.S. I'm quite willing to put in the time and effort necessary to learn Aperture (or any other software I decide to use, "Pro" or not). I simply don't see the value in buying the box version when I'm pretty sure I won't be using any paper manuals.  I very comfortable using online help files, having done so as a professional numerical control programmer for many years in my work. For reference, I'm retired, on a limited income and will be using Aperture as a rank amateur photographer who could use a little more horsepower than iPhoto offers.
    I'll call Apple tomorrow.

  • License Key When Using Executable Windows Installer

    Post Author: Robert Flaherty
    CA Forum: Deployment
    When using the executable Windows Installer for installing the Crystal 2008 runtime files on client PC, do you need to enter your license key?  If you leave the field blank, what happens?

    It sounds like the key you are trying to use is for setting up a KMS, not for activating a windows server station.
    If you want to use a KMS, use the following key:

    Also be sure to create the service record for the KMS in DNS:

  • Lost InDesign CS6 License Key

    I had a web designer's desktop crash on her.  She had all CS6 applications.  I can find keys for all the applications, except InDesign.  The previous IT staff didn't do a very good job of documenting or saving keys and did a lot of "one off" retail purchases, so I haven't been able to find a login that has this license attached.  Is there ANY way I can find that key stored on the filesystem?  I'm going to have some really angry people if I have to purchase a whole new license.

    Either way I look at it as bad news for adobe and it's customers. Either a free CS6 license key or a scam.
    I didn't open the email so I don't know what type is the attachment as I know I didn't order CS6.
    All I know is:  sender email in my mail box shows simply "adobe.
                         Subject line reads "License Key"
                          Email shows attachment to it.
                          when I hold my cursor over the email in my inbox it shows preview text thanking me for purchase of CS6 and states my license key

  • Where do I enter my License key in Lightroom.  I downloaded the Creative Cloud version but purchased Lightroom 5 and licenses it.

    Hi,
    I downloaded a trial of Lightroom from CC and loved it.
    I purchased version 5 and got my license key.
    Now the software from CC has expired and I can't seem to figure out how to enter my license key.
    Thanks,
    Pete

    You can't license the creative cloud version with your serial number. The only way to license that version is with your Adobe ID and password. It will be necessary for you to uninstall that version and then download from here:
    Product updates
    After you install you will be able to enter your serial number. The work you have done using the creative cloud trial version will not be lost because the uninstall does not remove the catalog, nor does it do anything to the images that you have imported.
