Cannot install Photoshop 6.0, license invalid?

Hi forum,
Since Adobe don't do support on my companys old software, they suggested I posted my problem here.
A few users at work, uses Photoshop 6.0.1. We have a license key and original Adobe install CD.
We are in the progress of upgrading the computers, so while the user still works at the old computer, I'm installing all her programs on the new computer. But Photoshop wont let me install, it says the license code is invalid for this version of Photoshop. I took a look at the old computers installation of Photoshop, and in the About box I see the license key and version, and it matches the ones I'm trying to use for install.
Do any of you have any suggestions to what is wrong?
The old computers are Windows XP Pro 32bit and the new computers are Windows 7 Pro 32bit, maybe Windows 7 is the problem?
Thanks.
Best regards,
Martin

Ok, I found the problem. The IT guy before me, took a photocopy of the back of the big case that the software came in. He then wrote the serial by hand on the copy. The quality of the handwriting was poor and a few of the characters was read wrong by me. I found the jewelcase with the full serial and that worked!
Thanks to Johns answer, I looked for the jewelcase and found a readable serial number

I bought Photoshop Elements 12 and I cannot install it..It says invalid serial number and says invalid Redemption Code

I bought Photoshop Elements 12 and I cannot install it..It says invalid serial number and says invalid Redemption Code when I try that way. I need the program and because I have opened the box it can't be returned to the store. I have over $100 tied up in this product that I can't use. Someone said install the free trial version...Ok, I did...but it is just a 30 day trial and I want the full version of the product I paid for!! So how do I get a valid serial number? The serial number on the box and the redemption code card both come up as invalid. Not a very happy customer right now!!

You will need to contact Adobe Support by chat or by phone.

Cannot install Photoshop Elements 10.

Cannot install Photoshop Elements 10.
I had the trial of Photoshop Elements 10, but uninstalled it a few days before trying this install.
I’m trying to install Photoshop Elements 10 but when I run setup it wants to uninstall it first and it fails to do that, stopping with “Error 1402 – Could not open key”. It then rolls back the install and ends. I purchased the boxed bundled version of Photoshop Elements 10 and Premiere Elements 10. How can I get it to install without trying to uninstall first, as it is not really installed anymore?

I have Windows Pro 64-bit.
I have gotten past the problem of it wanting to uninstall first. The install proceeds as it should until it is almost done then I get an error and it rolls back. The error is:
Error 1402 could not open key. UNKNOWN\components\da42bc89bf25f5bd0af18c3b9b1a1ee8\9fa945eeaaf84854382bce1fcbd91cff

Can't install Photoshop Elements 11 licensed version because of trial version

I can't install Photoshop Elements 11 licensed version because of trial version that is still on my computer and is not being completely uninstalled. The intended folder to install has some files remaining from the trial version, and this prevents the licensed version from installing. The intended folder from teh installer is Program Files (x86)/Adobe, but that has the trial version still there, which will not completely uninstall.

Hi Steve,
Are you getting error message while installation.

Cannot install Photoshop CS6 ugrade to Photoshop CS4 on Windows 7 PC.

I cannot install Photoshop CS6 upgrade to Photoshop CS4 on my Windows 7 PC. Error reads - Serial Number you provided is valid, but a qualifing product could not be found on this computer. I then selected CS$ as the product and entered the serial number with Error - This serial number is not for a qualifying product. CS4 is currently running on the PC. Any advise?

If you recently purchased CS6 as an upgrade then the versions that qualify for the upgrade were reduced a couple years ago to only include CS5 and CS5.5. If you purchased CS6 a couple years ago while CS4 was still in the upgrade path then you should contact Adobe support using chat and see if they can help you get thru the activation.

I cannot install Photoshop Elements 2.0 on the iMac I got last year. I have been using the PSElements on my PC OK. What should I do besides getting the latest PSElements?

I think PE 2 only worked as far OS 10.3 Panther. There is no alternative but to get the version that works on your 10.7 Lion Machine, which I think is PE 6 or higher.

I have tried deleting all previous Photoshop file and also trashing the Adobe file in Library/Application Support, both as suggest elsewhere but with no joy. Can anyone help?

Nothing here works. During the course of this I have had to reinstall the OS and this did not help either! I am thinking about asking for my money back and finding another way of editing my RAW files!.

Nothing. It's simply not compatible. You need to upgrade to another product.

Cannot install Photoshop CS4 on Windows Vista Business

Ok people, looking for some help with this. I have a new PC (less than 2 months old). I cannot get Photoshop CS4 installed at all. I'm sure there have been a million threads like this before asking the same question. Although I am a newb to Photoshop I am certainly not when it comes to computers, this is what I do for a living. I can't even believe I am actually having to ask for help.... :\
Anyway, help appreciated. I have Windows Vista Business SP1 (32-bit), and its running on a Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300 @ 2.5GHz with 4 gig of RAM. I have plenty of free space on my hard drives.
When the install completes, I get the same error message, installed with errors. When I click to see the error info it says something about language packs (I can get the exact error if you want, just installed and uninstalled about 10 times but hey).
Things I have tried a few times have been to follow through all the other threads and the Adobe support pages - Uninstalling the product through Programs first, running Windows Install Cleanup, running the Adobe CS4 Clean Script - when I do these things in this order both of the cleanup utilities don't find any installs of Photoshop CS4, so it doesn't appear they are doing anything. I have disabled everything on the PC, done a selective startup, turned off UAC, firewall, anti-virus - everything suggested. Still, the same error persists.
I have even run my Registry Mechanic and cleaned up that, and of course checked registry permissions etc. Please help!

You may want to install Vista SP2. It contains a lot of fixes and has the newer 4.5 installer.
Also if Vista is set for English then CS4 has to be set as US English upon install (I think someone already pointed that out).
Before install go services and set the windows installer to auto and start it. Also good idea to turn off windows defender.
Go to MSconfig and turnoff as many start up items that you don't need running (you will have to reboot).
Ensure nothing Adobe related is running in the back ground before install. (someone already mention this I think)
Anti-virus: I turned mine off during install.
I did not install AIR nor Device Central on my system as I would never use them.

Ok, so I've tried all the things suggested above but still get the same errors....
Adobe AIR
Error:
Error 2.
Adobe Photoshop CS4 English Language Pack
Error:
Error 2.
LangPack (English) for DeviceCentral

Anyone else have any idea what might be causing my problem? The other thing I was going to try was contacting Adobe support, but can I do this for the trial version? When I tried to log a case it kept asking me to select my product, but I don't have one yet....
Thanks.

Cannot install Photoshop CS4 onto a new iMac

I have just bought a new iMac and want to put my Photoshop CS4 on it. It has previously been on my 5 year old MacBook Pro. I have downloaded the .dmg file from the adobe website but as soon as I open it up and click on the setup icon a pop up opens saying "Cannot Install Please click the Quit button". This all happens before I am given the option to put in a product key. I have just done the same process with Lightroom 2 and it worked fine. Any ideas?

Yes, it seems you are downloading the wrong thing.
Try downloading from here : http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html
Make sure you follow the steps before you begin downloading

Cannot install, Photoshop CS3 conflicts with Photoshop CS3

Here's the correct sequence to uninstall the CS3 beta and install the final, shipping version of CS3:
1. DEACTIVATE the Photoshop CS3 beta;
2. Run the Adobe Uninstaller currently residing in your ./ Applications / Utilities /Adobe folder to uninstall the Photoshop CS3 beta;
3. Run the 'CS3Clean' script that has been posted to remove the bits and pieces that the uninstaller misses.
NOTE that you cannot just drag the CS3 beta folder to the Trash like you normally do with other Mac applications.
To install CS3:
1. Repair Permissions.
2. Install CS3 according to the instructions.
3. Repair Permissions AGAIN.
4. Activate the software.
here is the link to the clean script:

*"HOW DO I RECTIFY THIS?! im pulling my hair out."*
Sorry, dude. No sympathy. You're committing software piracy and telling the whole world about it. Not smart. If you want to run Photoshop, then buy your own copy.
For help with (un)installing Photoshop for when you get your legit copy, I suggest you post your question on Adobe's discussion forums, as it's their product, not Apple's.
