2.1 keeps asking for Product Serial Number

Every time I start up my Aperture now, I get a screen asking for my name, organization and the serial number from the install disk. This is not the more complex "registration" screen - I have ben there and submitted that. This is just every time I start it asks for this. While it still operates normally once I have started, it is a pain. The machine (MacPro) has just had a new logic board after a failure, and that is the only change. Any suggestions how to get rid of this step?
Thanks
David

Check just a few post down. I think Victor already answered this for someone else.

  • Keep asking for my serial number again and again

    Have just installed CS5 , all paid up, all signed up, all numbers given and verified, but.....nothing CS5 works, all keep asking for my serial number again and again, accept and verify number is correct, adobe tells me I'm all up and good and running, then screen tells me I'm not licensed so it closes down. same in InDesign, and Photoshop. What the hell is going on Adobe??????

    Could be a permissions problem, so the licensing never can persistently verify the serial and create the necessary key files. Try creating another user account with admin privileges and run it from there, then check the settings on your existing account and the pertinent user data folders.

    If you still have the receipt or other proof of purchase, you can ask Apple to send you the serial. Otherwise, bad luck mate.. Good news is, you can now buy Logic Pro 9 from App Store for just 199 USD

  • Creative Suite 6 Design Standard (for Mac) keeps asking for the Serial Number ... over and over!

    My iMac has a well-installed Creative Suite 6 Design Standard. I have a valid serial (purchased it) and it works fine. Every couple of months though the Adobe Application Manager pops up and asks me wether I want to continue the test-period or if I am willing to enter the serial number. So I dig into my papers and get the serial number out ... it is accepted every time and works fine then. But after some time - there we go again: I have to enter the number.
    I faced this issue a while ago and read that it was recommended to update the Application Manger - which I did. But ... still being bothered by these kinds of questions from time to time.
    What can I do?

    27" iMac with Mac OS X 10.6.8 (it is not possible to update the OS --- this is the reason why I am running CS6)

    Hello my name is Vittorio. 2 years ago i've bought the CS6 master collection which has worked perfectly until recently.
    Now i keep getting the question to enter my serial number and when i do that i get the Invalid reaction. But it is the same number that worked before! What can i do to make CS6 work again?

    Hi Vittorio,
    We would like to know if you have re-installed your product on this machine. We would also like to know your OS version.
    Meanwhile, try:

  • Lightroom 5 keeps asking for my serial number. Help me stop this madness!

    I have the latest version of lightroom 5. My copy is constantly asking me to enter my serial number. It does not ask me everytime I launch LR, but maybe every 5 to 8 times I open LR.
    I am on a windows 7 laptop.
    Can someone please help me?
    Thank you

    I had a problem with that post. While it is pretty exhaustive, at first there was a major problem that baffled me. So if anyone is  having trouble with the instructions here http://forums.adobe.com/thread/800907?tstart=0 , here is what happened to me and how I got past it.
    My problem was that I had been told by Lightroom about 10 times to enter my serial number. I was so fed up on the tenth time, I immediately quit Lightroom and tried to search the internet for answers. I came across the post above but could not get it to work. Why? because the post/link above asks one to search, in a couple of different folders, for a file called "Lightroom 5.0 Registration.lrreg" (because I have version 5 of the software, your number may be different).
    Well I searched and searched both of the locations it told me to look in and I could not find that file. There were no other instructions about what to do if the file did not exist.
    It took me about a day to realize that the reason I could not find the file was because on the tenth time Lightroom asked me to enter my serial number, I instead closed the program out of frustration. What I needed to do was reenter my serial number AGAIN, then the file would show up.
    When I realized that, I easily found the registration file which allowed me to follow the directions in the post/link above.
    So the moral of the story is to re-enter your serial number before searching for the file.
    I should have realized this earlier, but I was just so frustrated with re-entering my serial number, I decided I was going to solve the problem first before entering that dam long number AGAIN.
    Thank you dj_paige for pointing out the article and leading me back to it.

  • I have downloaded pro and it keeps asking for a serial number.  I do not have one how do I get one sent to me

    I need my serial number for my paid subscription how do I get it

    Precast238 this is likely due to a connection error between the computer and our activation server.  Please see Sign in, activation, or connection errors | CC, CS6, CS5.5 - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-issues.html for information on how to resolve the connection error.

  • Installing Photoshop CS4 from original Disk onto my new Macbook Pro.  Serial number accepted but now asks for the serial number of a previous version e.g. CS3 which I no longer keep.  How do I resolve ?

    Installing Photoshop CS4 from original Disk onto my new Macbook Pro.  Serial number accepted but now asks for the serial number of a previous version e.g. CS3 which I no longer keep.  How do I resolve ?

    Tina Hadley did you migrate/transfer your applications over to your new Macintosh?  If so this could cause problems with your serial number being recognized.  Please run the available uninstallers located in Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder.  Once this is done you will also want to run the CC Cleaner Tool.  Details on the use of the CC Cleaner Tool can be found at Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.

  • Creative cloud keeps asking me to license my software and then it asks for a serial number

    it keeps asking me to license my software and then it asks for a serial number, i do not have a serial number with creative cloud just a order number what do I do?

    For me this guideline helped:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-issues.html
    In my case, I had to remove the following lines from the hosts file:
    120.0.0.1 lmlicenses.wip4.adobe.com
    127.0.0.1 lm.licenses.adobe.com
    After that all worked again. Hope this helps.
