Can't Reinstall P'shop CS6

I just reinstalled my Windows 7 64 bit Professional operating system on an SSD and proceeded to reinstall my programs. However, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to reinstall CS6.
I originally purchased CS5 Extended and later upgraded to CS6 (not extended). When I went to reinstall CS6 on my computer I first downloaded the software from Adobe. When I fired it up, I was told to enter my serial number. The program told me there was no qualifying package for that number and gave me a choice of Photoshop packages from which to choose. CS6 Extended was on the list, but not the regular CS6. I was again told my serial number didn't match the CS6 Extended package.
I have entertained the thought of reinstalling CS5 Extended from CD and trying the Adobe program again, but it seems to me I'll end up in the same situation I'm in now. I do not have a CD of the CS6 upgrade so I have no idea what to do.
Is this a ploy to get me to go with the CC plan? I notice Adobe no longer provides telephone support for CS6 and below. So much for the > $1,000 I've invested in their software.
Please help! Photoshop jobs are backing up rapidly.

Now ii's my turn to get confused. In your first message you said you already downloaded the software from Adobe. Now you say CS6 does not appear on the list of products to install. What list?
Anyway you can download CS6 from here
http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs6-direct-download-links.html
but follow the instructions to the letter or it will not work.
Normally if you install an upgrade it will look for a previous qualifying product on the computer (in your case CS5 Extended). As this is not present on your computer it will ask for the serial number of that previous version. So you use your serial number of CS6 to setup CS6 and your serial number from CS5 extended the moment it has searched for a previous version and couldn't find it and asks for the serial number of that qualifying product which is CS5 Extended.
Sorry if this is not clear but English is not my native language.
As a side note you could also reinstall CS5 and remove it once CS6 is up and running..

How can I reinstall photo shop in my new computer?

I installed photo shop 5 in my new computer, the photo shop 7 up-grade is looking for a previuos version of photo shop, but can not find it. I had this configuration on my old computer which broke down.

You should not need to install 5, you should only need the serial number from it so that your installation of 7 as an upgrade can be confirmed.

Also, why are you reinstalling Photoshop?
If it is because you encounter a strange issue that you did not have before (a tool that misbehaves), most of the times, it does not cure it, as a reinstall does not delete the preference files, and it is those that can become corrupted.
I would reinstall (to cure an issue) only after having reset the offending tool(s), or after having re-created the preference files.

No, there is no way to extend or reinitiate a trial.

I had Premier pro given me by the college I attend and do no use wi fi and do not use cloud. My laptop completely died and will be sent back to Apple for exchange. How can I reinstall Premier Pro on a new Apple computer since the old one is completly dead

I had Premier pro given me by the college I attend and do no use wi fi and do not use cloud. My laptop completely died and will be sent back to Apple for exchange. How can I reinstall Premier Pro on a new Apple computer since the old one is completly dead and could not be unregistered?

Hi,
You have not specified which version of Premiere Pro was given to you. If you don't have the disc (which i suppose you don't have) you will have to download it online.
As far as your registration is concerned, for Premiere Pro CS6 or earlier you will have to reach Adobe chat support for further help: http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html
For Premiere Pro CC and later, you will not have much problems reactivating it.
Thanks,
Rameez

Photo shop cs6 download

I just bought a photo shop cs6 on this internet about 15 minuts ago pressed the down butten and it just put me on your member page. I checked my credit account you got $96.00 I am checking out my computer and I have no down of a photo shop cs6. Whats up?

This is not a forum for resolving purchasing issues, which is what it sounds like you might have. If you have only been charged $96 then it sounds like you purchased a Creative Cloud subscription rather than Photoshop CS6. Photoshop CS6 costs quite a bit more than that, even as an upgrade.
You should try contacting Adobe Support to see if they can get more direct help for you.
