Acrobat 8 Professional serial number issue

i recently upgraded to a new Mac and transferred files and programs to the new Mac. when i try to use Acrobat 8 Professional to view and edit a PDF, a window pops up asking for the serial number. when i add the serial number, i get an error stating that the serial number is invalid. ??????

Hi lorena pape,
Have you used any migration software to transfer the software from the old Mac to the new Mac?
Try installing it from the purchased disk and retry.
Assuming that the new Mac has Mavericks installed, Acrobat 8 has not been tested on Mac Mavericks and you might face compatibility issues.
Regards,
Rave

  • Didn't receive my adobe acrobat professional serial number

    Hi,
    I ordered and purchased my Adobe Acrobat Professional XI software. I have tried it for 30 days and decided to purchase it. I did using my credit card online. I received a confirmation of purchase with a code and the message informed me that they will send me another email within 1 hour with the serial number. Unfortunately, since I received this message yesterday, I did not receive the serial number message. I checked my credit card and the payment was successfully made. Can you help?

  • 2 issues - Invalid Serial Number issue & Lightroom 5 Trial vs full version folder hierarchy question

    Hello
    not sure if I should split these two questions...
    1 - Invalid Serial Number issue
    I'm helping out a friend with their large photo collection and they bought Lightroom 5 and received the serial number but when we add this to Lightroom it states that it's invalid - I tried leaving it until the following week (I visit them weekly) and it still refusing the number - when I went into their Adobe account and took a look at downloads the option to download the full version is greyed out (or an x - I'm not sat on their computer right now so can't double check) but it wouldn't allow me to do anything so we just had the trial version.
    anyone know what the issue is - shall I get them to contact Adobe to get them to take a look - I also had issues trying to find a customer support email address lol. (I seem to faffing with lots of websites/software/companies this week so getting a little frazzled!)
    2 - Lightroom 5 Trial vs full version folder hierarchy question
    This question is linked to the above i- I am wondering if the folders in Lightroom are different in the trial version vs the fully paid version.
    I had set up some greeting card templates and contact sheet layouts for my friend and tried to transfer them to her computer but whilst, LR 'sees' the folders it just doesn't acknowledge the templates - I tried it several ways but I've not had that issue before so will that sort itself when I get the serial number fixed?
    Thank you for any help or suggestions - hope you all have a good weekend :-)
    Lenny

    Hi Lenny, the two questions may be related but the trial is actually the same as the full version. I would suggest getting the serial number issue sorted out first. There have been known issues where a paid for product still shows up as a trial.There is not a lot the community can do. You need to contact Adobe directly using the link below. Use the dropdown menu for boxes (1) & (2) to scroll down the list and choose:
    1. Adobe Photoshop Lightroom
    2. Serial number issues or activating my product
    3. Click on the blue button: Still need help? Contact us – then click the button marked “chat now”
    It’s usually possible to start a live chat, if an Adobe agent is free, and often to get the problem fixed right away.

  • CS4 Extended Serial Number issue

    Hi
    while registering CS4 Extended I have a problem. As Upgrade Version only CS3 Extended is shown, not my valid CS3.
    Any ideas?

    Serial number issues can only be handled by calling Adobe.

  • Acrobat 9 Standard - Invalid Serial Number Issue

    I had Acrobat 9 standard on my machine and after a hard drive crash, I have not been able to re-install the app.  I keep on getting invalid serial number.  Can anyone help?

    has anybody found a solution? I'm having the same issue.

  • Serial number issue for Acrobat in CS3 Web premium education edition.

    Hi everybody. If anyone can help me on this issue, I would really appreciate it. So far, customer support hasn't been very useful. So here is the issue.
    I bought CS3 Web Premium for my 2.16ghz macbook and it was purchased through apple. Anyway, it came with the main disc to install all the applications of cs3 and another disc to install acrobat 9. The way an education edition works is that I don't receive an actual serial number. I receive a product number which I have to enter, along with my info and proof of eligibility on this website called myidentit-e.com When this was all said and done, I received an email that contained a serial number. This serial number worked on all of the regular cs3 applications but not on acrobat 9. There was no other product code included and the directions inside the case said that I should be able to use the same serial number for both the regular cs3 and acrobat 9. Customer service's suggestion was to call apple since I bought it from them but what would they know about that? Adobe seals the products and I'm assuming that Apple is only a reseller.
    Anyways, any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks!

    We've also had this problem. It looks like neither Adobe, My Identit-e nor Adobe will take responsibility for fixing this. All CS3 programs work except for Acrobat, which won't accept the serial number.
    Support requests to adobe have resulted in our request simply being "closed" without any actual response from the company.
    Has anyone had any luck with obtaining help from any of these companies? Any advice is appreciated.

  • ACROBAT XL PRO SERIAL NUMBER ISSUES AFTER INSTALLATION

    Bought a new computer with Windows 8 OS.  Went to my account in Adobe and downloaded my Acrobat XL Pro.  Installation seemed to go well.  However, the first time I used the software I was prompted to enter the serial number.  I did and now I ALWAYS get the following message any time I use the software:  Serial Number is valid but not for this product.  Choose from one of the products given. The only product that somewhat matches in the drop down box is the Acrobat XL Standard.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled and still receive the same message every time I use it.  The software does seem to work, but seems to respond slower and I always have to click the QUIT button on the message above in order to move forward.
    Frustrated that I cannot find a support phone number to get help with this issue.

    You purchased (or were sold) an upgrade, at reduced price. During install it wants the serial of the qualifying product.
    The qualifying product is the older version of Acrobat which you must own before buying an upgrade. So just type THAT old serial number, when asked.

  • Acrobat Pro XI Serial Number Issues

    I just bought and downloaded Acrobat Pro XI.  However, when I try to launch the product I get an error that says "Serial Number you provided is valid, but a qualifying product could not be found on this computer".   What the heck is this and how do I fix this?  Of course, you can't actually get in touch with Adobe to get this resolved.  This has been the most frustrating and idiotic download I have ever encountered. 

    The messaging is indicating that you purchased an upgrade version of Acrobat and it is trying to find the earlier version that qualifies you to install and activate the upgrade.  You should have the option of entering the serial number for the previous version instead of actually having it installed.
    You should be able to tell if you purchased an upgrade based on the price you paid... check the product page.  If you did not intend to purchase an upgrade version then you should get that resolved thru Adobe Support directly by chat or phone.
    Here is a link to a page with options to help make contact:

  • Acrobat XI pro serial number issues

    I have just upgraded my pc to a larger SSD and win 8.  and reinstalled XI pro with the serial number originally provided (I have double checked the serial number online).
    When I attempt to start XI pro I receive a message stating the serial number is valid but a qualifying product could not be found. The 'select a product' drop down does not include XI pro so I can't re-enter the serial number.
    Any suggestions?

    The software you purchased was an upgrade. It is asking for proof of the older version of Acrobat you owned before.

  • Adobe Audition 3.0 Setup - Serial Number Issues

    I'm trying to resolve an issue with the Adobe Audition 3.0 Setup. I tried the Chat Support a few times, and they requested me to submit the problem to the forum for Professional Assistance. The issue is that the Setup window asks me for the serial number, and I tried my own serial number, and also the serial number provided in the download site (as the representative suggested) but they don't work. So if I can't finish the setup, I'm not able to perform the installation.

    You need to download both the software and the serial number from the download site. You cannot use that serial number with your own version of AA3. It only works with the downloaded version.

  • Acrobat 7 Serial Number Rejected

    Hello,
    We have a copy of Acrobat Professional 7, that up until recently have had no issues with. We recently tried re-installing it on a machine, only to find that the Activation Servers are offline. We were directed to download an "activation-free" version of the product.
    After downloading this version and attempting to install it, we found it is rejecting our serial number(s) and are subsequently unable to install it.
    Some background information on the products history:
    1. Bought Adobe Acrobat 5.0 - retail
    2. Bought Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Standard (upgrade) - retail
    3. Bought Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional (upgrade) -  via your online store.
    All of the serial numbers from all of the above products were rejected. We have the original packaging and serial numbers to hand if you should require them, along with a receipt for Acrobat 7 Professional from your online store (also containing the serial number).
    We would appreciate any help you could give us on the matter to get this installed. Thank-you for your time,
    James Compton.

    You are absolutely correct! Thank-you. I double-checked the download page and there is indeed a serial number that I must have missed when I originally looked there.
    Thank-you!
