Aperture 3 Serial No stopped working

All,
I've had to re-install Lion couple of times this weekend, Aperture 3 (box upgrade from version 2) has installed without a problem until the last time I've tried to install now it doesn't accept the serial number, I have doubled check to make sure I am typing the right now - no luck.
It's worked fine numerous times before when I've need to re-install.
Any ideas?  The install process stops at the serial number step so no files are even copied to the disk.
J
Human error - I must need sleep!!!  Closed can't find a delete discussion option.

If you purchased from the Apple Online Store (or from within Aperture) and you have it on your old machine, you should be able to go to 'Aperture Menu > About Aperture' on the old machine.
The serial number should be listed in the resulting dialog.
If you purchased via Mac App Store, then you should be able to log into the Mac App Store and then copy the Aperture.app over to the machine and put in the '/Applications' folder.

  • Serial number stopped worked

    Hi,
    My serial number just stopped working. I have copied and pasted it from my adobe account, but it just won't work. I tried the support web pages, but I couldn't find a way to get to the online help and I just got redirected to the community forum.
    Does anyone know how I can get a support ticked with adobe so that they will look into it?
    The product is Photoshop CS6, but I couldn't find that community, so I selected Photoshop Mix.
    Thanks,
    Emma.

    Emma,

  • PCIe Serial Card Stopped Working in Yosemite

    I have a PCIe serial card in a Mac Pro based on the 16950 that's been working fine up until Yosemite. It's been working with the built-in Apple16x50Serial.kext driver.
    With Yosemite, it looks like the driver loads okay, but no serial port appears under /dev/, and no IOBSDSerialClient for the card appears in ioreg either.
    This is the same device used in the older XServe's with serial ports.
    Info on my card:

    Same here, although I can't even enter the shortcuts screen on my iPhone, as the Settings app crashes when I try to view the shortcuts. They are still on and work on the phone, but I can't access them to edit, etc. On the Mac, they neither show up nor work.

  • Serial number stopped working!

    I purchased CS6 Design and Web Premium Windows DVD from my University, everything was OK until today when Adobe decided that now my serial number is invalid! How one can contact support to resolve the issue or request refund? Thank you in advance

  • Some Aperture Brushes stop working??

    I have recently upgraded my iMac (i5 with 12GB RAM) from 10.8.5 to 10.9.3, upgraded Aperture to 3.5.1. Pretty much my first editing session, and I discover that about half the Aperture brushes have stopped working. This happens on previously unedited images, both JPG and RAW. All referenced images.
    These brushes seem to work fine:
    Retouch
    Skin Smoothing
    Burn
    Tint
    Definition
    Vibrancy
    Halo Reduction
    Highlights and Shadows
    Sharpen
    These brushes don't work - the brush menu comes up, I can change the setting, but the brush does not show, and I can't brush anything:
    Dodge
    Polarise
    Intensify Contrast
    Contrast
    Saturation
    Blur
    Sharpen
    Noise reduction
    Curves
    Enhance
    Levels
    I tried changing various brush settings, doesn't seem to help. I have submitted an a bug report to Apple.
    Any ideas from the forum, has anyone run into this?

    A reboot seems to have fixed it.

  • I have a corrupt Photo file, that makes Aperture stop working properly.

    I recently imported some of my old photos from a CD to the Aperture Library. Every time I open that project or try to work with any of those photos Aperture will stop working. (in a very aggressive way)
    The viewer wont update.!
    It wont make any change or save anything.!
    I have to quit and restart Aperture to have it working again, I don't know what is wrong.
    Any Idea?
    Maybe new aperture .5 will fix this??

    Another option would be to quit Aperture, remove the project from the Library using the Finder, reopen Aperture (the troublesome project will now be greyed out), throw the troublesome project out, and finally reimport the images back into Aperture. The only problem is you now have to re-do any adjustments etc. for that project. If he project has other images you do not want to re-do you could try just removing the problem import group, go back into aperture and then throw those images out, quit (you may have to force quit) Aperture and then restart Aperture. I did the above on a test Aperture library, but as usual you have to be carefull. Do not do any of this without first duplicating the troublesome library.

  • My iPhone 5 charger stopped working. It's under warranty and I want to send it back. How do I initiate that process? The website keeps sending me in circles.  I'm getting an error message when I put in my serial number.  Why is this so difficult?

  • Adobe Photoshop CS4 message: "Licensing for this product has stopped working." I have the serial number but not the media. How do I use the software?

    I recently tried to use Photoshop CS4 that I have on my computer but I get the message:"Licensing for this product has stopped working." I have the serial number but not the media. How can I use this version?

    You can get the installer here: Download CS4 products
    It will install as a fully functional 30 day trial. Entering your serial number will convert it to a permanent version, Standard or Extended, depending on what serial number you purchased.
    If you still have the license problem. get back to me with your OS details and the error code.

  • CS6 Stopped Working on OS X Mavericks (Serial Number Revoked)

    I have used Adobe Creative Suite 6 but it stopped working after I upgraded my Mac OS to Mavericks.
    I contacted Adobe support and was advised to uninstall/reinstall, but it still shows the same error message “The serial number you entered has been revoked. This product cannot be licensed.”
    Support staff said there is no issues with my serial number and it must be some technical issue (so they did not agree to reissue the serial number).
    Please kindly advise how to solve.
    I refer to this support page and tried below solutions but did not work for me.
    Delete the FlexNet Publisher preferences folder: I did not have the folder.
    Run the License Repair Tool: Did not work for me
    Repair disk permissions: Did not work for me
    Reset permissions on the FlexNet Publisher licensing service folder: I did not have the folder.
    Solution 5: Reset permissions on the Adobe PCD folder: I did not have the folder.
    Also, I updated Java OS X as shown here, but did not work either.
    I am using Mac Book Air with Mac OS X 10.9.4. I appreciate any advise. Thanks!

  • Acrobat X Pro stop working on CS6 and requires a new serial number

    Hello all! I faced this problem several times running Window 8 Professional 64Bits. For a reason which I could not understand, in a certain momment Acrobat X Pro, installed under the CS Design & Web Premium package, stop working. It simplys could no longer be launched. I click on the Acrobat icon, or run it mannualy by the command window, and it is like it does not exist. The hard drive light blink a litle bit and stop with no error message. I have already tried to unisnstall the Acobat using the CS6 uninstall interface, reboot the computer and install it again, using the CS6 interface and under the new installation Acrobat is recognized as a stand alone software and request me a new Acrobat serial number. The new installation did not recognize the CS6 serial number.
    The only action that has worked in the past is remove completelly the CS6 and reinstall the full package again. I would not like to do it since I have my dreamweaver full loaded of servers configurations and it will take a long time to recover all environment as it is now.
    Therefore I decided to ask for help. Does anyone could give me any idea how to turn around this?

  • Lightroom refuses the correct serial number. Creative Suite stop working.  Adobe is treating people with total disrespect and does not even have a phone number where we could call. I will move soon to other software,

    Creative Suite stop working after backing up the program from Time Machine. Adobe is treating people with total disrespect and does not even have a phone number where we could call. I will move soon to other software. I paid for the software and it is totally abusive this behavior from Adobe.

  • Aperture serial number does not work

    I just got a Mac Book Air, my Aperture Serial number does not work. it tells me it is not correct. How can I use my software now?

    First how did you purchase Aperture and how did you install it on the Air? As the Air does not have a DVD drive it would help to know how you got the app onto it.
    Start with Troubleshooting Professional Application Serial Numbers and see if that helps.
    There is also Pro Application Replacement Serial Numbers if you're not able to get your serial number working.

  • Many years ago I purchased CS2 with serial number 1130-0676-7755-3637-6984-8039. Later i purchased a used macmini from a private party with OSX 10.6.8 with CS5 already on it. It has stopped working. Can I purchase a new version of CS5 for my older system

    My name is Don Lewis. My email is [email protected]
    Many years ago I purchased CS2 for my older Mac Mini with OSX 10.4.11.  My serial number is 1130-0676-7755-3637-0984-8039. Then a few years later I purchased another Mac Mini with OSX 10.6.8 from a private party that had CS5 already installed which now has stopped working on that computer. Can I purchase an CS5 upgrade for my OSX 10.6.8 from Adobe Systems?

    Can I get any answer to my question?

  • Master Collection NFR serial stopped working

    Hello,
    My official and legit Master Collection 6 NFR serial stopped working few day ago and my software is back in trial mode.
    In my Adobe account, the serial still shows up and is registered.
    When I try to re-license with the same number, I get an error that the serial is invalid.
    Help, Chat and support is not available.

    You need to contact Adobe Support either by chat or via phone when you have serial number and activation issues, so you might need to continue trying to make contact.
    Meanwhile, see if anything linked below helps resolve the matter.

  • Aperture stopped working

    I was importing images from my camera and the battery went dead on the camera and now Aperture will not stop processing and i have to force quit to get out of it. Is there a fix -it guide out there?

    Hello Roy,
    if you force quit, your Aperture library might be left in an inconsistent state. If Aperture will not start without problems after force quitting, try the trouble shooting basics: Repair permissions, repair library, delete preferences.
    Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3805
    Report back, if still problems persists.
    You may find some recovered images in an recovered album, since your import was not completed. Probably it would be better to reimport those pictures.
    Regards
