Trial to licensed (CS4)

I am currently running the PS CS4 trial version and have the upgrade on order (shipped from so no key until arrival)
Can you simply use the trial, as I assume its essentially the software, and enter the key on arival and activate etc (less hassle) or do you need to uninstall and start over?
Version licensed: CS3
Version ordered CS4 upgrade
Thanks.

Just entering the serial should work fine. I've done this a few times in the past when I didn't have access to my software by other means and luckily, PS does not have much in terms of extra content that only becomes available with a full install, so this should be smooth sailing...

  • Install CS5 trial alongside licensed CS4?

    Does anyone know if you can install the Photoshop CS5 trial alongside CS4? I have a licensed copy of CS4 but want to try out Photoshop CS5. I don't want to screw up my CS4 installation though.
    Does the trial of CS5 happily co-exist with a licensed version of CS4?
    Thanks!

    A licensed version of CS5 will also happily co-exist with a licensed version of  CS4

  • How to extend my SAP NetWeaver 2004s Trial Version license ?

    Hi All,
    I am new to the netweaver, thought i had installed the system some time back, now the license of the trial version has expired and i want to know how can i go about extending the trial version license. Or do i have to go through all the pain of installing the system again. Please help me out.
    Cheers,

    No. You can send a request again with your Hardware Key on the below given ink and you will get your license.

  • Trying to install my business licensed CS4 that is working on current computer to new, but it's saying the license is not valid.

    I am trying to install my business licensed CS4 that is working on current mac to new, but it's saying the license is not valid. I am now on creative cloud, but need CS4 because there's a plug in that only works with that. Please help. I do not want to deactivate the current running one as I need to make sure it works with the plug in on the new mac. Besides, aren't you allowed to install it on more than one machine, as long as only one is running?

  • PSE 8 - upgrading trial to licensed

    1.  Is there somewhere I can key in the license without waiting for it to ask me?
    I couldn't find it.
    2. Now when I right click + Edit with Elements it says I could enter a license, but this is some type of fricken' lie.
    First, I bought Elements 8, so now I have a license because it sent me an e-mail.
    But the window asking for S/N doesn't stay up. I try to Alt Tab over to another window and curiously the S/N window goes away.
    I try editing again after I get the e-mail and writing the number on paper and then try to enter it in.  It doesn't like it.
    So I download Photoshop Elements 8 LS8 exe file and it companion 7z file (and the rebate coupon while I'm at it).
    Does entering the s/n work now? No such luck.
    So what gives?  Do I have to wait for some magical DB update?  If so, there ought to be a warning or two about possible delays.
    Do I have to install the "better" download (my original is PhotoshopElements_8_WWEFDJ.7z and was 485 KB larger).
    It would seem if I am presented with a dialogue for entering a S/N it ought to take an S/N unless it warns me otherwise.
    How do I get from Trial to Licensed given that entering the S/N doesn't work?

    Hi Paul,
    Unlike PSE7, now the serialization screen comes only on launching PSE Editor. So whenever you will try to EDIT any photo a serialization screen will come giving you 2 options: 1. Continue running in trial for the remaining period out of 30 days. 2) Enter the serial number in the boxes.
    I believe you are trying to enter serial number in these boxes and something is going wrong. Could you please explain it again on what exactly is happening? Are you not able to type in the serial number in these boxes OR the serial number even after entering correctly is showing a Red Cross OR that after entering the serial number no information as such is displayed saying your copy has now been converted in licensed version?
    Sorry for sounding confused but i didnt get the clear picture from below post.

  • How do i know trial or license version ?

    hi,
    How do i know data services' version ?
    is trial or license ?
    thanks,

    Hi,
    When you launch Data Services and enable info logging, you should be able to see the version that you are using. The type of license e.g. beta etc. is usually also visible in the log as well. If you can let us know the LCDS version, we can provide specific advice.

  • Open software: trial or license issue / We are still processing your order.

    Hi,
    I just bought the CC membership (year plan, paid monthly) and was wondering whether the reason why the software is always detected as a trial version or a "needs license activation" version is because of this status of the plan details:
    We are still processing your order. It could take up to 24 hours. Please check back later.
    So basically I have to wait until the order is processed and then when I open, for example, photoshop, it shouldn't demand me for any license or push me into trial mode, right? I can't find an explanation for this, so thought I'd ask here.
    Thanks for the help.
    Cheers.

    Hi Rajshree,
    Thanks for coming back to this. Sadly I'm still getting the issue. I get two options: start trial or License this software. When I click License this software, it requests a serial number, which I obviously don't have because I have the membership.
    Any idea what is causing this?
    Cheers.
    PS: I've tried restarting, different connections, logging off etc...

  • How to identify the Photoshop Trial or Licensed version installed, only through files/registry ?

    Hi,
    Please help me out here.
    I need to identify the Adobe Photoshop CS4 Trial installation to that of fully purchased/licensed installation,
    only using files/registry entries.
    Thanks in Advance.

    To back up what Mylenium said you can take the trial download and insert your s/n of the purchased copy and it will be  a fully licenced copy.
    If you had a trial and let it expire you should uninstall it.  I am just guessing, but if you see it in your program list and open it should be obvious if trial or not.  Uninstalled trials can cause Bridge to have error "need to activate from parent program".

  • Unable to renew the SAP NetWeaver ABAP 7.02 Trial Version license

    Greetings,
    My license for SAP NetWeaver  ABAP  7.02 Trial Version has expired and I was trying to renew the license the other day. I was able to install the new license but, unfortunately, I were not able to delete the old licence not activate the new one.
    I logged on with user: SAP* to install the new license and it was installed successfully. When I do try to delete the old one the system gives this error message: " Only the administrator is allowed to delete licenses. When the valid system license has expired, only the user SAP* can log on to the system. in this case, it would be dangerous to delete a license.
    This is why the user SAP* is never allowed to delete a license."
    Anybody can assist me with the license renewal please ?!
    TIA

    My problem is solved ,, thanx whoever looked at it :).
    the solution was that I downloaded and NSP license key but for an other version of the product.
    Thanx.

  • SAP NetWeaver 7.02 SP7 64 bit AS ABAP Trial Version: License mismatch

    Hello together,
    after installing the wrong license in the AS ABAP 7.02 SP7 64bit Trial system (Win 7 64bit), I am no longer able to activate a temp license or to install the correct license:

    Thanks, Bernd

    The soluion is:
    In this case, you can only delete the license key directly in the database: first of all, examine the contents of the SAPLIKEY table. This table should contain exactly one record with a LIKEY field that begins with "0002LK", and possibly another record with a LIKEY field that begins with "0002LC". If you find one or both of these records, but no further records, you can delete them using database tools.

  • How to remove CS4 Trial with PS CS4 and LR 2.6 Installed?

    After reading several discussions on the subject, it would appear the following workflow should be followed:
    1 Log on as Administrator
    2 Use Uninstall Programs and select PPro CS4.  Allow the uninstaller to remove as much of PPro CS4 as it can.
    3 Use Adobe Cleanscript CS4 for Windows several times.
    More than likely, I would like to remove all data files produced by PPro CS4 and probably NOT INSTALL the FULL VERSION on this machine.  Other than looking in the My Documents Folder, where else should I be looking?  Will the procedures outlined above leave both PS CS4 and Lightroom 2.6 alone?
    I've got 2 days left on the Trial and wish to uninstall prior to deactivation.
    Any tips, suggestions, gotchas and errata would be most welcomed!

    Here is the link to the PrE Tips & Tricks sub-forum.
    Though it is in the PrE hierarchy, it is a great repository for things that affect all Premiere programs (and some general NLE subjects too). Not everything there is specific to PrE. As a matter of fact, most articles were written with PrPro (and Photoshop) firmly in mind, with annotations where there are differences when referring to PrE, or PSE.
    Good luck,
