Aperture trial serial number not valid

Apple sent me a mail: Try Aperture for free.
Unhappily the serial number Apple ([email protected]) has sent to me for Aperture Trial is not valid!
Was that a spam? Does Apple want that nobody try Aperture? What can I do?

I have a similar problem. I installed the trial, and
it worked okay, until I updated it through Software
Update. So I trashed the program and thought I would
reinstall the version which was linked in the e-mail
that contained my serial number. Now I can't
reinstall it because it says that it was installed
before.
Grrrrrrrrrrr...
If you want to reinstall you have to delete the aperture files in system/receipts. These files tell the system what has been installed and will not allow a reinstall if they are present.
Hope this is understandable?

Aperture 2 Serial Number not valid from 1.5

Hi,
I have just purchased Aperture 2 but when installing on my new mac it is saying that the serial number from Aperture 1.5 is not valid. Triple checked but still no luck.
Any ideas please would be great!

Are you sure your 1.5 is not an academic version or an NFR? Those are not eligible for upgrade.

Serial Number Not Valid- new Windows 7pro/ fresh install of Creative Suite 5 Design Premium Win from download will not accept license key. This serial number is not valid for this product is the only response.

Serial Number Not Valid- new Windows 7pro workstation / fresh install of Creative Suite 5 Design Premium Win from download will not accept license key to install. This serial number is not valid for this product is the only response being returned. What am I missing?

The key is for Creative Suite 5 Design Premium the download is DesignPremium_CS5_5_LS1 and all associated files in the group.

I try to access my new Adobe Pro XI download to use it, and a message says "serial number not valid" or words to that effect. I downloaded on Friday afternoon.

Contact support by web chat to get your serial number issues sorted.

Serial Number Not Valid 2nd Install CS5.5

I'm trying to download CS5.5 Design Standard Student and Teacher on my Windows 8.1 machine and receive a "Serial Number Not Valid" notification. I have already downloaded the product on my Macbook Pro a few years ago, but was under the impression I was allowed to download it on 2 computers. Anything I can do???

the serial number for a mac installation is not the same as for a windows installation. and, in fact, cs5.5 is not a dual platform product so you cannot install it on a windows machine unless you have a windows license/serial number.
you could upgrade to creative cloud. the subscription apps (cs6, cc and cc 2014) are all dual platform.

Serial number not valid when upgrading from LR4 to LR5 [was:leewayphotography]

J’ai acheté LR 4 il y a 1 an avec le n° de série sur la boite. J’ai acheté l’upgrade pour LR 5 et je n’ai jamais pu installer la version définitive avec ce n° de série.Ce n° de série n'est pas valide. La durée version d’essai est terminée et donc je dois retourner à LR 4 pour continuer à travailler ? Pourquoi cela ne fonctionne pas?

Bonjour.
J'ai bien compris votre réponse qu'il fallait utiliser un nouveau n° de série. J'ai bien téléchargé LR5 le 18 mars 2014, j'ai bien reçu une facture
n° IEE2014000174985 mais je n'ai pas de trace d'un nouveau n° de série. Il n'est pas sur la facture, ni dans le logiciel?
Que faut-il faire

Logic 9 Serial Number Not Valid

I recently backed up my computer and did a complete OS reinstall (starting from stratch and not using the old image due to old corruption files). I then decided to manualy copy over Logic Pro 9 files from the backup drive to the new image. I went to open Logic and it asked for my serial number. I typed it in and then it decided to crash on me. Well no big deal, I probably didn't copy all the files. So I deleted as many files as I could find and then proceded to reinstalling Logic 9 from my Logic Studio disc set. Entered name and the serial key during the beggining of the install and it says "Serial Number Not Valid" and asked me to type it again and gives me the same message. After 3 failed attempts, it closes the installation program. I have tripple checked my spelling in the key and have checked forums regarding this problem. I have already attempted to move the ID files in Library/Application Support/ProApps to the desktop; no change. Any input would be nice. Thank you.
I am running Mavericks 10.9.1 on a MacBook pro 2012.

Was your copy of Logic Studio 2.0 (the one containing LP9) a full version or an upgrade version?
If it was an upgrade version you need to enter your original LP8 serial first.... and then it will ask for your LP9 upgrade serial...
If it was the full version, contact Apple directly and ask for their assistance.
http://www.apple.com/contact/
or use the online webpage to obtain a replacement serial number...

Note: Once you have successfully installed LP9.. you must upgrade LP9 to the latest version 9.1.8 before you run it, via software updates... as you are running Mavericks...

Installer tells me serial number not valid photoshop elements 13

i'm trying to install photoshop elements 13 multiple languages mac that i downloaded tonight online. i purchased photoshop elements 13 and premiere elements 13 as a package a few days ago on line but it appears that what I purchased was for windows and not for mac. I have a serial number for each (photoshop elements 13 and premiere elements 13). The installer is not accepting the serial number as valid for some reason. I'm guessing that the problem was caused by the fact that what I bought was english windows and what i downloaded as mac -- which is what i need. help me please!

Hi there
Where did you get the number from? Do you have a serial number, redemption code or product code?
Please try the following doc to see if this helps: Find your serial number quickly
Thanks

HT1349 APPLE CARE SERIAL NUMBER NOT VALID

Alright so I know this is elsewhere in the forum but I recently purchased AppleCare for my iPhone 4 (I live in Canada) and I went to register the product and it's telling me the serial number is not valid.
I tried calling Apple but I keep getting in this enraging speak your problem loop that doesn't seem to pick up "AppleCare" as an item that I'm having issues with. What am I supposed to be saying to the prompter to get me to a service representative. It wants the serial number for my iPhone. That's not the issue, it's my APPLECARE that has the wrong serial number.
I have zero patience for teleprompts so I'd like someone to walk me through how to get to a REAL human being.
I just want to register my product that I paid 90 bucks for. And have it actually work. I'm not asking much
Any help would very much be appreciated!!!!

Thanks, I ended up using the "EXPRESS LANE", which I definitely recommend to anyone that dislikes speaking to a computer as much as I do.
https://expresslane.apple.com/
Also, to anyone else that may be having this issue: The serial number you're inputting is for your PHONE, not the one on the applecare box.
If any apple people are reading this, the form should read "DEVICE serial number", not everyone knows what hardware means (though in hindsight that makes sense but why not call it what it is and save potential client frustration, and save yourself a phone call). Or even make a drop-down list to select the device you're registering would be helpful. Then have the registration applet show "AppleCare Registration #" and "[device name: e.g. iPhone] serial #".

Aperture trial serial number never arrives

I'm sure there's a sensible reason for this. I'd like to give Aperture a trial, and despite having gotten as far as the "Thank you" screen that assures me a trial serial number will soon be sent, I've yet to get one. Yes, I'm relatively certain I typed my email address correctly the four times I've tried. Yes, I regularly check my email junk/trash folders. Yes, Apple is on my white list. Any suggestions welcome for how to get the test serial number delivered!
TIA

Hi,
I had this issue. The answer was to logon to the apple site first using your apple id.
Then once logged in then go to the trial webpage and request a serial number. I got my serial number in seconds.
Regards
James.

Serial Number Not Valid -new store-bought Aperture 2

I recently bought Aperture 2 from the Mac store.
The serial number they provided is not valid. I have checked many times - the letters are in caps, and I have included all dashes.
I had no trial version of Aperture prior to this.
Please help!

Just call 1-800-SOS-APPL and they will resolve it for you.
Good luck!

Moving from trial to full version. Serial number not valid?

Trial version will not accept new serial number for authorization.
I bought the full version today from the Apple store (for $99 -- I guess I spent too much due to it being $79 on the App Store). Apple sent me the new serial number, but Aperture won't accept with the trial version serial number or the new serial number. What is going on?

While you're at it, you should see if they will just refund your money then you could go to the App Store and get it for $80.
If the above number doesn't work the web page Contact Apple might help.

Fresh Install of Aperture v1 - Serial No Not Valid

I have migrated to a new iMac and want to install Aperture v1.0 Retail and then use v2.0 upgrade. The v1.0 serial number is not recognised as valid - I have double/triple checked the typing. This is a full retail copy of v1. Any assistance appreciated! I have used Aperture v1.0 before on an earlier computer without problems.
Thanks
Mike

You don't need to actually install v1. When you install the v2 upgrade it will ask you for both serial numbers. Be sure to update it to 2.1.4 before trying to run it under Snow Leopard.

CS2 Serial Number Not Valid

I recently got a new laptop, and I want to transfer the CS2 activation from my old desktop to my new laptop. I deactivated CS2 on my old computer, but when I try to activate it on my new laptop, I'm told that the serial number isn't valid.
I use Window's Vista.
Thanks!

Now, I have never done any trial of any Adobe software, so this might not be valid.
When installing any of my upgrades, I have never had to have the program installed. After the installer surveys my system, I have always been given the option of inserting the original program's installation disc, for verification. Now, I have been upgrading from 2.5 for all those versions. I have also never used any download, except for patches, etc.
It was not until I upgraded from PS to Production Studio, that I had a "full-version" of PS, between then and version 2.5. Everything else was an upgrade disc, purchased directly from the Adobe Store.
I would also think that if you are running the trial, it would not care what other Adobe programs you have, or had, but could be wrong on this.
I would only download any trial directly from Adobe, and no where else.
Good luck,
Hunt

Serial number not valid on new computer

I purchased Lightroom 5 in November 2013 and have a serial number that worked on a 64bit PC at that time. I just purchased a new 64bit PC and downloaded the current version of Lightroom 5 (64bit 5,7.1) using Creative Cloud. This started a 30 day trial that works fine. When I try to enter the serial number I received in Nov 2013 the message returned is: "The serial number you entered in invalid." What's wrong? (PS I still have the old PC that is in storage.)
