Adobe Acrobat XI Serial Number Validation Error

(1) I just downloaded Adobe Acrobat XI
(2) After clicking the icon I receive a message that theSerial Number is Valid but product could not be found on computer.
(3) There is a dropdown list of Adobe products to look for but Adobe Acrobat XI is not included.
(4) Now what?

You've entered an upgrade serial number.
The XI installer is saying that it accepts your upgrade serial number but cannot find an earlier qualifying product on your computer. You must have upgraded at some point in the past.
So it's asking you to select an earlier qualifying version from the dropdown list (Acrobat 9 or X) and enter the serial number from that version to prove you are eligible to use the Acrobat XI upgrade serial number.

    I have Adobe Acrobat 9 on an old laptop.  I downloaded Acrobat 9 from here Download Acrobat products | 9, 8 to my new computer.  I looked up the serial number on My Adobe, and have tried both pasting and typing it into the installation form. 
    I keep getting an "invalid serial number" message.
    Please help.

  • Purchased adobe acrobat x serial number does not work after two computers i need it put on a third computer help

    I purchase adobe acrobat x   I put it on two computers in my office I need to put it on one more but the serial number does not work anymore   is there a way to put it one the third computer?

    Also, you can only use it on two computers if they belong to the same person, are used only by that one person, and are not used at the same time. To install on two computers for two people needs two licenses. Adobe sell volume licenses, but do not sell an "all the computers in the office" license.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro serial number will not install or register

    I just purchased Adobe Acrobat Pro XI and tried to install it on my computer.  I entered the serial number and registered it.  However, every time i open the program, it warns me that my 30 day trial will expire in 0 days.  I click on "license this software" and enter the serial number again, and register it again.  It works for one instance of use, then the insanity begins all over, and the trial expiration message pops up next time i open the program.
    I have tried uninstalling the software, then running the adobe cleaning tool, restarting the computer, then installing the software again.  This did not solve the problem.
    It is nearly impossible to talk to a human being at Adobe customer support.
    Can anyone help me?

    what os?
    what file(s) (name/extension) have your downloaded and is their file size?

  • Adobe acrobat standard serial number  is not recognized and cannot install?

    I purchased acrobat standard and have a serial number and order number but in Internet Explorer and Google Chrome it is marked as invalid number when I try to install it.  I have tried the serial number with and without dashes but same results.  I have spent a lot of time but no results.  Not happy about this.  Installation should be simple and user friendly.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    1. Did you buy an upgrade or the full product?
    2. Is it asking for a QUALIFYING PRODUCT?
    3. Did you buy from Adobe, or from someone else?

  • 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?

  • Serial Number Validation Error

    Hi All,
             When a service confirmation order is created , the serial number entered is validated against the serial number maintained in R3 against the material .
             In my case , even though i have done the required customization and serial number is maintained in R/3 , i get the error message 'invalid serial number' even though i enter the correct serial number . Upon debugging i found that the BAPI  'CRS_SERIALNR_CHECK' carries the required validation and it is called correctly from CRM side. I have also set the serial number profile to 04 (Check against SAP ECC).
    Thanks,
    Sriram Sundar Rajan

    Hi,
    Can you provide some intial information as to how you have developed the validating of serial number against those maintained in ECC.
    A documentation explaining the same will be very usefull.
    Your work will be highly appreciated.

  • I never received an Adobe Acrobat Pro serial number

    I can't read any pdf files even though I purchased Adobe Acrobat Pro specifically to get a serial number which I never received, in order to read pdf files.  EVERY time I click on a pdf a notice pops-up telling me to enter my serial number.  How do I get my serial number?

    Did you buy a subscription? If so, there is no serial number. Just make sure you are signed in to Acrobat with the same Adobe ID as you used to buy the subscription.

  • Purchased and downloaded/installed Captivate 7 but get 'serial number valid but' error

    Purchased and downloaded/installed Captivate 7 but get 'serial number valid but a qualifying product could not be found on this computer' error.  I have checked serial number, checked that I purchased correct version (7) direct and not an upgrade but the drop down list tha tthe window shows is only previous 6 versions and it is 7 I purchased/installed and is opening.

    Captivate thinks you bought an upgrade.  Adobe Support will have to help you. 
    I went through this (with an upgrade) but my qualifying product was also an upgrade, and Adobe didn't list my original product (CP2).  So there was no way to put in all the info. 
    And, just FYI, keep that serial number handy.  Even after Adobe Support fixed my Captivate so that it will run, every once in awhile...for no apparent reason...Captivate will start in "trial" mode and I have to re-enter the serial number.  It always works after I do that.  But, it's a pain so I now keep the serial number posted on my bulletin board for handy reference.

  • Adobe Premiere Elements 12. Serial Number Validation

    I recently downloaded Adobe Premiere Elements 12. And whenever i open the editor, it shows:
    Serial Number Validation
    Please connect to the internet to validate your serial number.
    I am already connected to wifi. I've been clicking the validate button several times, but still the "serial nunber validation" thing still shows. I have win8 32-bit. Can you please help me? Thanks :-)

    Russel Pidot
    Did you purchase Premiere Elements 12 from Adobe direct?
    I am assuming your download of Premiere Elements was a purchased download rather than the tryout download.
    Adobe is the only one to sort out serial number and activation issue.
    Please use the following link to contact Adobe via its Adobe Chat.
    Contact Customer Care
    As of a few moments ago, there was an active Chat Panel at the end of that link.
    Please let us know the outcome.
    Thank you.
