Message was edited by moderator: don't post serial numbers

This is a public forum - you don't want to post your serial numbers for the world to see.
Are you saying that you've bought an Lr 5 upgrade licence? What happens when you try to activate Lr 5?
What should happen is that when you input the upgrade serial no, you are prompted for the old full number - is that not happening?

Can I use the same serial number for mac and pc?

My problem is that my mac is falling apart and I don't know how long it's still working - can be hours or can be months. I'm not sure if my next computer is mac or PC, so I'd like to know if the same serial number can be used with both mac and PC? I have understod that I can delete the program from my old computer and then use the same serial number in my next computer (Is it working that way?). So if I now buy a lisence for mac, can I use the same lisence later with PC?

Riisar for retail copies of the software you would need to complete the process detailed in Order an Adobe product platform swap or language swap.

How Many Times Can I Use The Same Serial Number For Adobe Creative Suite 4?

I have design standard and was told I can use the same serial number on multiple computers. How many time can I use it? And say I install it on the maximum number of computers, but get a new computer, can I uninstall it on one of the old computers and use it on the new one? And can I use the programs on both computers simultaneously or do I have to use them one at a time?

Broadly speaking, it depends on the type of license you have.
Specifically, if you have a single license then officially, you should only install it once on one computer.
Practically, (unless it has changed with CS4) you maybe able to install it on more then one computer, BUT can only run one instance of the software at a time. You can not run more then one instance of the software concurrently; i.e. you can't run Dreamweaver on Computer 1 and Photoshop on Computer 2. That would be two instances, and is not permitted.
This is my understanding. I am happy to be corrected if I am wrong

Sorry Fred you are wrong.
If you have a single license you can install it on as many computers as you like. you can only activate the suite on two computers at anyone time. Work and Home or as many of us do it Desktop and Laptop. You can not use the computers simultaneously. You only have 20 activation/deactivations so use them wisely. Student versions only have one activation. You can not break up the suite installs the suite is considered one application.

Under my setting in iMessages it only allows me to select my linked emails and the telephone number is there but grayed out and i can't seletect it ! It wont activate. I just recentely got AT&T. When I had verizon before and my phone got disconnected it allowed me to still iMessage off my number.

If your phone service is disconnected, it's not your number any more.
If you "just got AT&T", how can it be disconnected?

Oliver,
Are you getting activation errors? As Ned stated , it is easier to troubleshoot if we have the specific type of error and error detail that you are getting.
Here is some help on activation if this is the issue:

You can't. You can only use that number if you have active service.

Downloaded FULL version but still asked for previous serial number as if it were an upgrade.

So I received the serial number for the standalone version of Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 Student and Teacher edition that I purchased from the Adobe online store. After it downloaded I received a serial number. When I installed the software and attempted to activate it using the provided serial number the pop-up box stated that the number I provided was for an upgrade version and that I needed to provide the serial number from the previous install; something that I do not have because I have never owned Lightroom before.
Before you start, I was very careful in selecting the FULL version, please see the attached image of the shopping cart which clearly indicates that I have purchased the full version. Further the email with the serial number gave no indication that I have purchased the upgrade version.
So my question is, how do I get a non-upgrade serial number that will work with the software that I have installed??

Here are the steps that I followed to purchase a full version of the software but for which I received an upgrade only serial #.
1) Logged into my Adobe ID account and sought out "Products: For Education Customers" by clicking the link products link at the bottom of my account summary page. This resulted in my being directed to the following URL:
Products
Here is a screen capture of the page which clearly states the page is for education customers.
2) Press the BUY link beside the Lightroom for Students and Teachers Edition. Please note - THERE IS NO INDICATION THAT THIS IS AN UPGRADE VERSION. Clicking the link results in the following URL:
Products
The only thing that changed is that the buy icon changed to an "Add to Cart" icon.
Here's the screen shot. Notice that it still says Products: For Education Customers at the top and there is no mention of this being an upgrade version.
3) Press the "Add to Cart" icon. Which loads a new page. Here's the URL:
https://www.adobe.com/ca/cart.edu.html
And here's the screen shot:
Please notice the price. It will become relevant when you read the chat that I had with "customer service" last night. Also, once again, absolutely no indication that this is an upgrade version. In fact, if someone at Adobe would actually look at this screen shot they would see that just below the text indicating the product's name is a line that states: "I want to buy: Full"
4) Proceed to Checkout. After providing my Adobe ID and password again I was directed to this URL:
https://store1.adobe.com/ca/cart/checkout.edu.html#null
Here's the screen shot, please notice that the content of the cart states "Full, Mac/Win, English, Download" Once again, absolutely no indication that this is an upgrade version.
5) I provided my credit card information and then received the following email from Adobe. A close reading of the message will not reveal anything about this purchase being an upgrade.

A second email with somewhat different formatting but with the same details was received immediately following the one quoted above.
6) Followed the instructions provided in this message and then installed Lightroom and entered the serial number provided above once the software launched. The pop-up box then informed me that I had been provided with an upgrade serial number and that the serial number from my previous purchase of Lightroom was needed. This was the first indication that I had not been provided with the product that I thought I had purchased.
7) That's when the nightmare that Adobe calls customer service began. Here's the transcript of the 30 minute entirely useless chat I had yesterday.

I understand that you have also used the download link & serial number from Adobe - CS2 Downloads, if still the CS2 is not working, then please refer to the system requirement for e.g System requirements | Photoshop
The issue can be that the present operating system might not be compatible with the CS2.

Using the same serial number on two devices, for Adobe Creative Suite 6 Master Collection

I already have Adobe Creative Suite 6 Master Collection (student version) installed on my personal home computer, but I'm looking into buying a laptop, will I be able to install the same programs and use the same serial number on my laptop as well as it being on my personal home computer, or would I have to buy separate software for my laptop?

Fininif you can install Creative Suite 6 on up to two computers for your use.

Can anyone help me get a serial number from Adobe & Identit-e?

I bought the Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design Standard Student & Teacher edition through Amazon online. I followed the instructions inside the package to verify my eligibilty as an educator. I received a message on the screen after submitting my materials that I was verified & I would be receiving a serial number. This was on June 1. I contacted Adobe Chat and a rep. told me to wait 2 -3 business days, but still no email with serial number had arrived. On June 7, I contacted Adobe Chat again and the rep told me to contact customer service at identit-e. I have sent identit-e two emails with no response. It has been one week of trying to get my serial number from either Adobe or identit-e. Can anyone help me get my serial number?
Product Code <removed by moderator>.
My work email is <Removed by moderator>

Jeff,
I ordered through Amazon and not through Adobe so there is not a record of my order on the Adobe website. I do have a record of the order with Amazon so I requested a refund through Amazon. The product is unusable without the serial number. It has been 8 days since my eligibility was verified with identit-e. I have spoken with three Adobe rep.s and two unanswered email to identit -e trying to get the serial number since I was verified as eligible to receive the student/educator version of Creative Suites. I am very disaapointed with the lack of help I have received from Adobe with this issue.
Being referred to identit-e or to a FAQ page is not what I needed to solve the problem- I needed the serial number I have lost complete confidence in Adobe's customer service and that the serial number will ever be provided.
