Aperture version 3.3.2 ask for Serial Number

After using an new MacBook Pro with Mac OSX 10.7.4, Aperture asking for licensing, I entered this ultra-long Numbers from Version 3 and 2, but i am not registered, after Quit Aperture I have to do the same procedere again, when I start Aperture. Anything is missing here?

How are you entering the serial number? Aperture is installed for all users on your mac, so the serial number is written to the system library, not the user library, and this requires read/write access for administrators. Do you enter your serial number using an administrator account?
Also, you may have a corrupted "ProAppSystemID" file or Aperture cannot write to the System Library.
To stop Aperture asking for the serial number, first check, if you still have an old file "ProAppSystemID" in your System Library.
Quit Aperture.
Go to your MacintoshHD and open the folder "Library", then "Application Support", then "ProApps".
Remove the File "ProAppsSystemID" to the Desktop, if it exist and restart Aperture.
Reenter your serial number, hopefully for the last time.
Sometimes Aperture writes this file to a temporary directory, when it cannot write to the Library. If the above does not work, look at the temporary directory /tmp
Use the Finder's "Go" menu
Go > Got to folder and enter /tmp into the textfield. If you see the file there, move it to its proper location.
In this case you may want to repair the permissions on your system drive; you can do this using the "First Aid" tools in "Disk Utility" (located in Applications > Utilities)

Aperture purchased from the App Store asking for Serial Number?

Aperture purchased from the App Store asking for Serial Number?
Has anyone seen this? I just updated the app and now I can't get in.
I don't understand.

First thing to try is delete the app. Open the Mac App Store and the status in the Purchases section should update to "Install". Click to download the full app rather than an update.

Trial version is asking for serial number ... helpp

I selected "try" from the adobe CS5 page and when I am in the install window it asks for serial number.
Why ???
Now there is option to "try as a trial version" however it will not allow me to progress and select this option.
Very Frustrating...

Did you run any other trials already? in any case, try the suggestions listed in the respective section regarding licensing here and also have a look at the specific CS5 stuff.

Does your Cloud subscription properly show on your account page?
If you have more than one email, are you sure you are using the correct Adobe ID?
https://www.adobe.com/account.html for subscriptions on your Adobe page
If yes
Some general information for a Cloud subscription
Cloud programs do not use serial numbers... you log in to your paid Cloud account to download & install & activate... you MAY need to log out of the Cloud and restart your computer and log back in to the Cloud for things to work

Had trial version of Photoshop, now bought CCloud, but photoshop still asks for serial number

I had downloaded a free trial of Photoshop, it expired, which led me to buy Creative Cloud so I could use it. Now after purchasing it, it keeps saying "trial expired" and wants a serial number, but every other app works ok without having to load a serial number. Also, have been on hold with customer service for well over 2 hours. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling/downloading Photoshop multiple times (just like the chat help suggested) yet it still asks for serial number since trial has expired to open Photoshop. Help?

I finally managed to get Customer Support on a Chat line. There is no registation for CC products but you do have to activate your download/subscription using your Adobe ID and password. That removes the request for a registration/serial number.
I am now on line and happy. Sad it takes so much sweat and frustration to get these simple things done.

ARD asking for Serial Number after Upgrade to OSX 10.9 and ARD 3.7?

Hello All,
I bought ARD 3.6.1 back in 2012 from MAC Store. Yesterday, I decided to upgrade to OSX Mavericks and the upgrade forced ARD to update to 3.7 from 3.6.1 and now ARD is asking for serial number... Never had a Serial Number since I bought it from Mac Store. Anyone with same problem?
Many Thanks in Advance!
App Store Update says I have 3.7 already installed.

Not sure how that would happen but you should be able to revert to the Mac App Store version with the following steps:
1. Launch the App Store app
2. Go to the Purchases secton and verify that Apple Remote Desktop is showing in your list
3. Assuming it's in your list, delete Remote Desktop.app from /Applications
4. Verify that Remote Desktop.app is not installed on any other mounted volumes using Spotlight
5. If it is installed then either unmount those volumes or delete the app from those other locations
6. Go back to the Purchases section of the App Store app
7. If Apple Remote Desktop is shown as "Installed" then select "Reload Page" from the "Store" menu
8. The entry for Apple Remote Desktop should now give you the option to "Install"
9. Click "Install"
After installation you should have the correct Mac App Store version that does not prompt for a serial number.

I have purchased Photoshop CC but I'm still unable to download and open lightroom, it still asks for serial number?

Can any one help me being able to download LR as I've purchased photoshop and lightroom, but i'm still unable to open lightroom it keeps asking for serial number and won't open.
Regards
Jason

Uninstall the serial-number LR5, the one you have installed, now, then quit the CC Desktop application (gear/quit or right-click quit), then restart the CC Desktop application, which will rescan and see that LR is no longer installed, and will offer LR in the CC Desktop apps list with an Install button next to it, so install that version.

Keeps asking for serial number since upgrading

Just took the plunge and despite some dodgy reviews, I upgraded elements via a disc install. Now each time I open it, it asks for serial number and assumes I am still on trial. This despite my account showing it is registered. Also it has up graded and not brought any plug ins with it to the newer versions.
Think I will just stick to Lightroom completely and write this version off.
Any advice on sorting this buggy upgrade out?
