Acrobat 11.x requires a serial number every day - Mac OS X

I have mac os x user who gets prompted for his Acrobat serial number on a daily basis.  After he enters the serial #, he can use the app until he reboots his pc.  There after, he is prompted for his serial # again until the next reboot.  I have attempted to uninstall/reinstall Acrobat, but that made no difference.  Does anyone know of a way to get the serial # to stick?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey Bruce,
There might be a software licensing issue so I would suggest you to please follow the instructions mentioned below:
Set administrative privileges for the following folders:
[Home]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/SLStore
[Home]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/SLCache
[Home]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/AdobePCD
Delete all the files under these folders except cache.db under SLCache.
Launch Acrobat again with the serial number and let me know if this works.
Regards,
Anubha

  • Audition CS6 requires a Serial number entry at every startup

    Audition CS6 requires a serial number entry everytime I start the program.  How do I fix this.?  It is very annoying and If I get locked out of the program before I  fix the dance recital music  Its not going to go well for me here.

    You don't say whether you are on Windows or not, but if so you might try running the program once as an Administrator. Once the serial has been accepted, then try running as a regular user.

  • I have an Adobe Acrobat Pro subscription without a serial number.  After a format of my hard drive, how to I reconnect with my program

    I have an Adobe Acrobat Pro subscription without a serial number.  In a needed reformatting of my hard drive, Adobe Acrobat was removed.  How do I get access to my Adobe program again?

    Hi,
    Go to http://www.adobe.com and sign-in with you Adobe ID ( on which you purchased the subscription).
    Then, on right hand side panel, click on 'Desktop' under Apps section. And then location Acrobat XI Pro and download it.

  • I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro and the serial number.  It is asking for an older serial number?  Please help?

    Hi juneb55782770,
    I believe that you have an upgrade version of Adobe Acrobat Pro, in this case it will ask for the serial number of the previous qualifying version.
    You can find your old serial number using this link : Find your serial number quickly
    Hope this will resolve your issue.
    Please reply if you still experience any issue.

  • Since upgrading to Mavericks my Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro requires administrative password on every launch--whats with that?

    Since upgrading to Mavericks my Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro requires administrative password on every launch which seems like an unnecessary step.  Does anyone know why this is happening and what can be done to eliminate this?

    Download and run the combo updater to refresh your files.
    OS X Mavericks 10.9.3 (Update (Combo)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1746
    Open Disk Utility and run Repair Permissions
    You might need to remove and reinstall Acrobat. Be sure you are in an admin account when installing.

  • Have creative cloud installed and Creative Suite 6 need both installed on this machine anytime I open acrobat it prompts for the serial number at least twice a day

    When I open Acrobat it prompts to enter serial number was twice a week now is twice a day. Do not know how to get this to go away. Worked with Creative Cloud support they said it was a CS6 issue but CS6 does not have support. That I can find

    Hi Michael ,
    With CS6 we used to ship Acrobat 10 and with Creative Cloud it's Acrobat 11.
    Have you installed both on the system?
    Which version of Acrobat and OS are you using?

  • Acrobat pro won't take serial number

    Bought a new computer. Technical service moved my programs over to new computer. Now Acrobat 9 Pro says my serial number is invalid.
    I entered the serial number which is on my account at adobe and it tells me it's not good.
    Anyone know how to fix this?

    Hi ,
    Could you please tell what OS do you work on ?
    As your Acrobat is not accepting the serial number , I would recommend you to refer the following documents once and see if that fixes the issue for you .
    Though these links are related to Creative Suite ,however you could go through them once and try the mentioned steps .
    https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/error-invalid-serial-number-acrobat.html
    Error "The serial number is not valid for this product" | Creative Suite
    The second possible solution is to connect with Adobe support if the above methods does not work .
    Here is the link to connect with them .

  • Asked for Aperture serial number every single time

    After re-installing Aperture on a new hard disk (the old one failed), I was asked for Aperture serial number every time I open the software.  How can I stop it? (iMac 2009, OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.2, Aperture 3.4.1)

    You may have a corrupted "ProAppSystemID" file or Aperture cannot write to the System Library.
    To stop Aperture asking for the serial number, first check, if you still have an old file "ProAppSystemID" in your System Library.
    Quit Aperture.
    Go to your MacintoshHD and open the folder "Library", then "Application Support", then "ProApps".
    Remove the File "ProAppsSystemID" to the Desktop, if it exist and restart Aperture.
    Reenter your serial number, hopefully for the last time.
    Sometimes Aperture writes this file to a temporary directory, when it cannot write to the Library. If the above does not work, look at the temporary directory /tmp
    Use the Finder's "Go" menu
         Go > Got to folder    and  enter /tmp into the textfield. If you see the file there, move it to its proper location.
    In this case you may want to repair the permissions on your system drive; you can do this using the "First Aid" tools in "Disk Utility" (located in Applications > Utilities)

  • Logic asks for serial number every time I start it...

    Hi,
    I've just reinstalled Logic Studio and it asks me for a serial number every time I start up Logic Pro if I don't have the old XS key inserted.
    It's the upgrade version and in the past i've just needed to insert the XS Key at installation, not evey time I use it.
    I'm using Logic Pro (lastest update) with Lion which Apple says is supported.
    Can anyone help?

    I had this issue when I upgraded. I resolved it by inserting the key before I started the upgrade and left it in there and then valdidate it with the serial. After that it never asked for the key again. If this is not working you might want to contact support and they probably provide a new serial key.

  • 3.4.5 now requires a serial number but I bought from app store

    Anyone help. Updated to 3.4.5 today and now Aperture requires a serial number when I click on it to open. I originally purchased via App Store and that is also showing as uninstalled and requiring me to re-install??

    Updated to 3.4.5 today and now Aperture requires a serial number when I click on it to open.
    How did you update?
    if yyou did not update from the AppStore, move your current Aperture version to the Trash (you do not need to empty the Trash) and then re-install from the AppSTore.

  • Adobe CC vs Acrobat, they ask me a serial number ! Why ?

    I subscribe to Adobe CC membership and when I install Acrobat, they ask me a serial number ! Why ?

    Hi Dogakor,
    I just checked your subscription status and it is normal. There is no problem in the back end.
    However, you may follow steps mentioned in this link to resolve this issue: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/ccm-prompt-serial-number.html
    It usually happens if your computer is unable to communicate with activation servers. And reasons could various like firewall, security software etc.

    Can anyone help please?

    Sorry that you got such a hassle. Try this. I don't have Acrobat 9 per se, but I have the TCS2 and found the following.
    Run Regedit (all the serious warning apply here. Look but don't touch).
    Under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHNINE->SOFTWARE->Adobe->Repair->Adobe Acrobat->9.0->IOD Look under the entry under SERIAL.
    Maybe it works maybe it doesn't. But it might help.
