Activation code not working

I own a version of Adobe Photoshop CS2. Sadly a little while ago my PC murdered itself with a Mother Board malfunction (or something of that nature) and the computer had to be tossed. Now that I have a new PC I'm trying to reinstall Photoshop but it is complaining the serial number is invalid.
Tech support, or whoever I was transferred to on the phone, said the serial number was accurate and should be working. The only thing they could discern as an issue was the operating system, which went from Windows XP to Windows 7.
Naturally they tried to tell me it was a compatibility issue but I get no such error message and the program works perfectly when you use the trial version.
But because I've been asked like 10 times today, no I don't have a trial version. I have the full version which allows a trial if you are missing the code. The version I have was purchased as a CD, not a download and I have the serial number on the back of the CD case. My CS2 is an upgrade from Photoshop 5.5, which I also have in front of me with it's activation code. I was told I'd need to type in 5.5's code after getting passed the CS2 activation window, but it's CS2 that's bogging me down and being pragmatic.
I'd like to know how to get the program working. Being told CS2's compatibility issue lies in the acceptance of the serial code is absolutely frustrating. I could understand if the program didn't work at all, but it does. Perfectly. It just won't take my code no matter how many times I type it in and double, triple and quadruple check that I put it in right.
The exact error I'm getting is "You must enter a valid serial number before activating online or viewing activation options. Please check your serial number and re-enter it, or click the Purchase button to buy a copy of this product."

You are running an application on a system for which it was never designed. Things are changing re: security, and Photoshop CS2 has no knowledge of that.
Try this:
Either run Photoshop "As Administrator", or turn off Windows UAC on your entire system (with required reboot) then run it.
If you DO disable UAC, you might want to read up on what UAC does for you (running your apps with only user privileges, redirecting some disk operations, etc.) and understand the benefits/risks before choosing to leave it disabled.

LR 30 day trial purchased education version & activation code not working

Hello
I purchased a iMac 5K and had been using Aperture on my old machine. Felt this was a good time to change to LR 5.
Downloaded the 30 day trial and decided yes I was very happy the software. I purchased the education version and received my code via email. This code is not being accepted by LR 5.7.1.
Is the download version different to the one I have purchased?
Do I need to delete the version I have installed and then use the disk provided? If that is the case can I reload all my past 2 weeks changes to LR?
Many thanks for your help.

You’re not by any chance running the creative cloud version of LR are you?
The CC download can only be validated by subscription, not with a serial number.
If so, send it to the trash and use this download link for v 5.7.1; then enter your serial number.
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5856
N.B you can use your DVD disk if preferred but you will need to update via the help menu to 5.7.1 after installation.
Your photos and catalog won't be affected.

Pick activity is not working properly while creating two or more file adapt

Hi,
pick activity is not working properly while creating two or more file adapter for bpel process.
bpel process compiled and deployed succesfully but while observing the wsdl file of deployed process you can find only one file adapter. so it polls only from that location.
can anybody help on over this? or it's limitation of jdev to use only one file adapter at time while using Pick.
Thanks
sagar

Does anybody tried this?
Thanks

HT2188 iPad 1 requested activation after being low on power. Activation does not work.

Hi
My iPad 1 requested activation after being low on power. Activation does not work so I have tried to restore it from iTunes. this progresses but after rebooting, it gets to the activation process for a few minutes and re-boots again - in a loop now. on ios6, not 7. help please?
I also looked at trying to do a manual install of firmware via iTunes but I do not know the version of firmware or how to find it out - so really stuck!
Thanks

I pulled my unit out of the dock - powered up and the display goes blank (if you look carefully you can see the bios boot screen, then black, then you can see the backlight turn off.
I plugged in the USB monitor and boom - I could log in.
Once Logged in I could see that windows still thinks it has some of the monitors from the dock, and the internal display is set to disable.
So the issue is the detection / setup of monitors in/out of the dock.
I've done about all I can do for dubugging, I hope lenovo can pick up from here. if not I'll have to call lenovo support.

When I run these search filters I get results from my AD. When IdM runs the search they are coming back blank. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Chris

If you have changed environments... or for some other reason, your USN number on the AD resource could be lower than the number passed in the query.
Manually edit a user in AD, and then check the USN number of the object. See if it is lower then the query is passing. If so, you can manually edit the IAPI_ResourceName configuration object and alter the USN number passed in the query.

PS4 Game Voucher Code not working

my PS4 Game Voucher Code not working and says: "The code you entered may not be correct or may no longer be valid" "Please check your entry (e-820000134)

Voucher codes are region-specific. For instance a US voucher won't work with a UK account. First thing to check is whether the voucher's region matches your account's region.

Redemtion code not working - what do I do?

I have bought and downloaded Photoshop elements 13 and now have an activation cod- wich I figure is also my redemtion code? But it is not working and I therefore can not get my serial number - does anyone know how to resolve this?

An activation code is a 24 digit numerical series of numbers - they are your serial number, not your redemptioon code. The redemption code is used to acquire the serial number as you have indicated, but you might have a serial number there instead of an redemption code.

say at least what navigation program your are talking about, and what you purchased. the order code doesn't matter, it has nothing at all to do with your licence code. it should have been activated automatically.

End Routine Code not Working after Support Pack Upgrade

Hi BI Community,
We have recently upgraded to SPS17 (BW SP19) for our production system and the code deriving the values of several attributes in the end routine of the transformation for one InfoObject (as info provider) does not work anymore. We have been trying to identify the root cause but the fact is that we did not change anything to the InfoObject and its transformation and this used to work fine. The strange thing is that when we debugged the code we could see the value of the aforementioned attributes was derived correctly but the value is just not updated to the InfoObject where we still see the old values for these attributes.
We have a similar InfoObject with the same end routine code in the transformation and it is working fine. We are out of idea what could have caused this during the SP upgrade.
Thanks in advance for your feedback.
Regards,
Peter

Cannot say what might have caused it but one check you can perform.
Open your transformation in change mode and you can see a button next to create end routine button, titled ' Update Behavior of End Routine Change', click on that and say all fields.
Hope it helps...
Regards,
Ashish

.oam file of html5 video trigger code not working in Muse

I simply want to have a video play on page load. I have done the code for a trigger on one <div> to automatically play a video in Edge. The video plays perfectly in browser preview, even with transparency intact! Just the way I want it. The problem is when I insert .oam file in Muse it doesn't work. Other animations of simple objects and key frames work fine in Muse. But, I can make much more beautiful animations for certain elements in After Effects, with transparency and integrate them with elements in Muse. The video, its transparency and other objects work great from Edge to browser preview but not when .oam file is exported and placed into Muse. I know, I wouldn't build an entire site like this, I just want one or two animations to play automatically, with out controls (which I've been able to do), when the page is loaded.
I publish with business catalyst to a my own domain, with Creative Cloud.
Attached is a video where I'm at.
What is the code or method to get to work?

HI,
Ok. I know that mov is not supported in Firefox nor Chrome, now.
When I put the trigger in Edge to play the .mov file, it works when I preview from Edge to Safari, and not in any of the other browsers. This leads me to think that Safari supports .mov files, with and without transparency.
However, when I try to put the .oam file generated by Edge into Muse and run the page in Safari the video doesn't work. Is this a .mov support with Muse? Does the video need to be uploaded to the Adobe Business Catalyst server? Where I publish my site?
.mov and transparency aside, I can't get any video to play in any browser from the .oam file placed in Muse. Nothing plays in preview nor when I publish in Muse. I get the previews to work from Edge for the corresponding video for each browser. And yes, when controls in put in it says wether the video is supported or not. But I would want no controls and the video to play automatically on page load. Ideally I would like transparency. But I realize that's a browser support thing. I don't see why all browsers don't support all video types and WITH transparency. C'mon now it's almost 2014! Am I right or am I right? Ok, sorry.
I followed everything in this Tom Green video. Pretty sure all my code is correct.
http://layersmagazine.com/embedding-video-in-adobe-edge-animate.html
Picture shows code for working .ogv in Edge preview but not from .oam file in Muse in preview nor publish.
Not sure why it won't even show in preview from Muse. But thinking when I publish, the video must have to be local on the publish server right?
Am I missing something? Do I need to insert HTML into Muse, not the .oam?
