All of a sudden... creative suite does't want to open, and rejects my serial

So I been having trouble opening photoshop and and any of the adobe creative suite product lately. Last night, I updated my Mac and so now today - Photoshop will not open. When I attempt to put my serial number in it's rejected. I am a very unhappy adobe user right now because I have deadlines I need to meet and no photoshop!

Apparently, Adobe is in the business of screwing over customers now.

You are getting this issue because you got your copy of Adobe software when you were at an Arts school, maybe Academy of Art University in San Francisco?
Well if you were, surprise surprise, your software was not limitless and without expiration date, in fact, just recently Adobe and AAU signed a new contract together that would force all previous owners of this software based on previous contracts and policies, null and void! YEAH, take that artists!
Now you probably weren't aware because it was never told to you via any paperwork or policies or contracts, but NOW that software that you had, well it was only "for the duration of your enrollment" to the school! So if you want to use Adobe prodcuts again, you must fork over more money to jump into the "Creative Cloud", also known as, "Customer Coercion" or CC for short.
Enjoy, the new face of Adobe.

    i downloaded an update from creative suite 5.5. to 6.0 and then switched computers for a few months. now I am back using the original computer and it looks like all of those Adobe applications (both 5.5 and 6.0) have disappeared. Maybe a "trial" was uploaded instead of the actual updates? Anyway, i just want to get the applications back onto my computer. i tried to enter the serial numbers on my original packaging but systems side error message from Adobe says they were already "redeemed" (which makes sense bc I already downloaded the updates. Apparently there is no phone customer service for Creative Suite anymore. ARRGGG. Any and all suggestions welcome!

    there is no update from 5.5. to 6.0.
    you could have upgraded from 5.5 to 6.0, but you would know that because you paid money.
    assuming you paid no money for a 6.0 upgrade, you still have your 5.5 license.  uninstall clean and reinstall 5.5 per http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html

    I just installed Creative Suite v 6.0 Master Collection and downloaded all product updates - I tried opening a document created with InDesign v9.x Cloud version and I get an error that do not have the latest... what is going on here?

    CS6 Master Collection is the last perpetual licensed product. The files created with CC version of Adobe apps are not, in many cases, compatible with CS6 versions.
    Is there some reason you thought they were?

  • I have an iMac and also a MacBook. All of a sudden my iMac does not recognise my Canon 500D camera even though I have downloaded 1000s of photographs from it via the USB port.  The MacBook recognises the camera immediately. Can anyone help?

    I have an iMac and also a MacBook. All of a sudden my iMac does not recognise my Canon 500D camera even though I have downloaded 1000s of photographs from it via the USB port.  The MacBook recognises the camera immediately. Can anyone help?

    Thank you for your reply.  I know I can use a card reader however I don't see why I should when importing directly from my camera has worked reliably for years.  The process I use is simply connecting the digital output from my camera to the USB port on the iMac, which has previously automatically opened iPhoto ready for the import.  Now all of a sudden my iMac does not recognise the camera.  However if I connect in the same way to my MacBook then iPhoto opens automatically on the MacBook, recognises the camera and is ready for importing.  So whilst I know I can use a reader, or my MacBook I want to use my iMac in the same way that I have for years.  I can only assume that the settings on the iMac may have changed, but I cannot verify this.

    Hi! I have a Creative suite Design Standard 9 Adobe program and I am attempting to make a wizzard form that can be made into an entry form for a competition. So I need to 1. Make the form into a question and answer form that Participants may fill out. 2. make it possible for them to download it via a link on our website 3. make it possible for them to save the info they have written into the form and mail it to the mail we have supplied in the entry form and 4. make it possible for them to put in a jpg. as part of the entry for and lastly 5. make it possible for us to copy paste the document and use it on other platforms. How do I do this - is it at all possible with adobe?

    Those requirements are go way beyond what PDF forms can do and are meant for, some of them would require involving other programs or are mutually exclusive and contradictory. You are wasting your time even thinking about doing this as an "offline" PDF form. Simply sign up for an online forms/ survey service like FormsCentral or Surveymonkey.

    I don't know what happened. All of a sudden, my settings have been changed, my homepage, and EVERYTHING. No matter how many times I go in and change them again, the SAME pages open up when I start FireFox and I am constantly being asked if I want Yahoo as my start page and default search engine. I click the box 'do not ask me again' and it comes up EVERY TIME. I change things like I don't want history remembered, and when I reload FireFox again, it's back to the way it was BEFORE. EVERY SINGLE TIME. I don't know why this is happening, or how to fix it. What do I do??

    I do not want to download another virus program.. I do not believe it is a virus. I am running the full version of Norton 360 and it is doing a daily scan. I have Windows 7, 64 bit OS.
    This is very irritating !! If I wanted Yahoo I would ask for it !

    Often you have to start by using the Adobe Cleaner tool first to remove all the Adobe applications:
    Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    Then do your reinstallation.

  • Adobe Creative Suite 5 & 6 will not open with OX X Yosemite 10.10.1

    To Whom It May Concern:
    I have an iMac 2013 and OS X Yosemite 10.10.1,
    Adobe Creative Suite 5 & 6 will not open.  Dreamweaver error message is "To open "Adobe Dreamweaver CS6.app" you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime.  Click more info. . .
    and a blank support.apple.com screen opens.
    My Adobe Suite 6 is asking for Java Runtime 6 and 8 is the newest version.
    How do I fix this issue?

         I am interested in purchasing Adobe's Creative Suite 6 Master Collection for Mac and Windows (Single User Educational License) FOR STUDENTS & EDUCATORS ONLY. I am purchasing this program for my son who attends George Washington High School: The College Academy in New York, New York. He is a sophomore and is interested in web design.

  • Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 design standards (Student and teacher licensing) download

    I had purchase Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 design standards (Student and teacher licensing), but I lost the disk and still have my product code. I tried downloading from the available downloads but the product code i have doesn't work. Where can i find a CS5.5 design standard student and teacher licensing download?

    There is no specific version designated for student/teacher versions, the software you get is the same as any other 'version'... the serial number is what designates the version status.  You might have used the wrong product code or maybe you need to adjust your approach to the attempt to acquiring the download.
    Make sure you have cookies enabled and clear your cache.  If it continues to fail try using a different browser.
    You can also download the trial version of the software thru the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.
    Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site and have cookies enabled in your browser or else the download will not work properly.

    I purchased my Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium in 08 and have upgraded to Mac. It appears I am not able to use my old software as I have the Microsoft addition. What should I do now as I desperately need the program in my current situation?

    Either run Windows on your Mac (Bootcamp, Parallels etc) and run CS3 in Windows on your Mac
    or buy a new full version of CS6 for Mac

  • Creative Suite 5.5 Design Standard Student and teacher edition-Reinstall

    I need to know where to go on the Adobe site to re install the above titled software.
    When I download and try to install the software  it will not allow me to fill in the serial number. It shows the space but it will not allow me to enter my serial number.
    I think the problem may be that I am not going into the student/ teacher portal for this product.
    I need your help please.
    Thank You!
    Gordon

    I have the serial. I get to point of installing, but the serial is not allowed to be entered. Maybe the teacher edition is between product than from the general public. Thanks! Gordon
