CS2 software, CS1 serial number

I've been using CS2. All suites open as CS2. I had to provide the serial number for CS2 before I could purchase an upgrade to CS5.5. Now that I'm ready to install the upgrade, the installation indicates I do not have a valid product to qualify for the upgrade. I checked, re-checked that I entered the serial number correctly. With dashes... Without dashes... Did the online chat thing. I'm told I have a CS1 serial number, yet the software says CS2. What's going on here?

Ok , so here is the finding ,
I checked your case and found that under your record you have 3 product registered :- Production Studio Premuim 1.0 , Adobe Premium Pro 2.0 and the Audition 3.0
The serial number that you gave to the technician( as per case note) is for the Production Studio Premuim 1.0 hence he was insisting it to the CS1
@ Mylenium :- Please help me out with this  , The Production Studio Premuim 1.0 include Adobe After Effects 7.0 Professional, Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0, Adobe Photoshop CS2, Adobe Audition 2.0, Adobe Encore DVD 2.0, and Adobe Illustrator   CS2 software
The question is IS IT A VALID UPGRADE/ UPSELL PATH , I checked but found that it is (cpsid_92048 ) but not sure I have cheched the right document so , I am forwarding it to the concern team but would appreciate if you can contact support and explain the situation , if requird share the forum thread.

    That is correct.
    You cannot use your CS1 serial number with the CS2 non-activated version supplied by Adobe at

    Re-read the instructions at that link. You must use the new CS2 serial number found at that link.

  • I have tried downloading photoshop cs2 and cs4 on a new computer.  I have the disc available for cs2 and the serial number for cs4.  They are both registered in my name.  I need help doing a download.

    I have tried downloading photoshop cs2 and cs4 on a new computer.  I have the disc available for cs2 and the serial number for cs4.  They are both registered in my name.  I need help doing a download.  I was able to get part way through cs4, it showed up in my downloads but never got as far in the process as to ask for serial numbers.  I tried with cs2 and I got an error message that some bit of information was incorrect.  I currently have both downloaded on two other lap tops I own.  One is operational and one is dead.  I cannot access the dead one to remove the program. Thank you in advance for any assistance.

    For CS2 you will need to download a special new version

  • CS2 suddenly wants serial number

    I currently am running a combination of CS2 and CS3. I have CS2 versions of In Design, Photoshop , Illustrator etc. I have CS3 versions of PS, DW, AI, Flash etc. All have been operating successfully for years. Suddenly CS2 In Design is requesting a serial number. When I input the number , which is the same for all my CS2 Aps, it is rejected. I tried a reinstall, since I initially upgraded  to CS2 from a Photoshop 5, the installation is requesting the location of an existing photoshop on my main drive. I point to CS2 Photoshop and it is rejected. All my software is legit and I've been buying and upgrading my Adobe software for 18 years. All my other CS2 Aps are opening just fine with the same serial number, Unfortunately, I really no longer need the other CS2 Aps, since I have the CS3 versions, The only CS2 ap I use is In Design.I am also concerned about the re-install of CS2, since I obviously don't want to over wrirte my CS3 Aps. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    I hope I haven't made this question too confusing
    Thanks
    Herb

    Thanks Bob. I got your reply just as I was trying another reinstall. I had just removed Version Cue CS2. (I only use InDesign and Go live CS2. All others are CS3).
    Do I need to reinstall Version cue Cs2 or can I live without it?
    Also, the Tech notes link you provided to me was dated Jan, 2010. Do you know if Adobe has released a patch for this issue (its been 4 months). I'm thinking I might have missed it.
    Thanks again for you help

  • Photoshop CS2 says my serial number is invalid & will not run.

    When starting photoshop CS2 I received a message that my photoshop user name, organization, or serial number is missing or invalid.  I cannot run photoshop.  I legally purchased it back in 2005 (I know, I've had this version for quite some time).  I used the program just a few days ago.  How do I resolve this?

    I assume I am the Admin since I am the only user on this computer.
    The Adobe CS Cleaner Tools says I have to uninstall CS program using the Control Panel>Programs>Uninstall.  I do not see the program.  Only Microsoft updates.  I searched their troubleshooting guide and found this:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/troubleshoot-installing-or-uninstalling-p rograms I installed a program but I don't see it listed under Programs and Features. How do I uninstall it?
    Only programs that were written for Windows will appear in Programs and Features. If you don't see the program listed and you want to uninstall the program, check the information that came with your program, or go to the manufacturer's website. Most programs install themselves in the C:\Program Files folder. Check this folder because some programs also include an uninstall program that you can try.
    What is Photoshops uninstall program?  I haven't seen a file that could be that.
    Can I use the CS cleaner program to uninstall Photoshop?

  • CS2 asking for serial number

    I've been running InDesign CS2 on my Mac no problem for years. Today, I have turned my machine on, gone to open a CS2 document and I get this message asking for the serial number to continue installation. When I put my serial number in, it tells me its invalid. What's happened? The only thing I have changed recently is that I've downloaded a trial version of Lightroom 2. Could this have caused it?

  • CS1 serial number not working

    Hi! I have installed a CS3 upgrade on my iMac. The new serial number works but it will not accept the serial from CS1. Is there anything I can do?

    With no other info to go on...  you need to contact Adobe Support either by chat or via phone when you have serial number and activation issues.
    Here is a link to a page with options to help make contact:

  • Palm Desktop Software - need serial number to install....

    I have been using a OLD version of Palm Desktop Software as my 'address book' for many years. I am upgrading to a new computer and tried to install the software (Palm IIIC handheld software V3.1 for Windows) onto my new machine (that uses Win 7). towards the end of the installation process, it asks me for the 'Serial Number' to complete the install. I don't know what I did with it. Any ideas as to what I can do to complete the install if I don't remember what I did with the Serial Number??
    Post relates to: Palm III

    The serial number of Palm-branded and palmOne-branded products is included in the ROM, so you can look it up easily.
    Access the Applications launcher
    Open the Menu launcher.
    From the App menu, choose Info.
    Tap the Version selection in the lower middle section of the screen.
    The serial number is the first 12 characters of the ID: line

  • Can I see what software a serial number is for ?

    I get an error when entering the serial number and I thought maybe I have chosen the wrong software to install (CS Design Standard, maybe I should try download other variants) ?
    I do not know what software package the license is for so can you tell by the numbers what to install ?
    Thanks,
    Matt

    I believe you maybe misunderstanding the program a bit. If you were to subscribe for a single app yes you would be close in the price per month ($19.99/month). However Adobe has discounts for subscribing to multiple apps per month.
    The Photography is two programs Lightroom and Photoshop for $9.99/month
    Complete is 29 programs for $49.99/month
    https://creative.adobe.com/plans?promoid=KLXMK
    Financially speaking $9.99/month would be the best deal if you were to try it. There is an annual commitment to consider as well. At the end of the year you have the option to cancel. All data that belongs to you stays on your computer so you will not loose any data by trying it for a year.
    Because I am talking about the Adobe plans I am required to mention that in the future I may be receiving promotional gifts for helping out.
    Good luck in your decision.

  • BOGUS CS2 Creative Suites serial number need solutions

    So I own CS2 Creative Suites Premium and it has been working a treat on my Macbook Pro with no issues at all. My harddrive did decide to pack in after water damage got it fixed tried my Adobe it did not work, and after tlaking with the Adobe helpline and going onto the CS2 section for an alternative serial number so I can still use my product it also does not work.
    What is the solution?
    Adobe what do you have to say for yourselves?
    And I am not interested in Creative cloud and I cannot afford CS6

    I am checking this old thread in need of a few answers. My iMac G5 (OS 10.5.8) running CS2 Professional had a drive failure. So, right now I am unable to access any of my artfiles. But I had an extra copy of CS2 Professional from a previous purchase and tried to load it on an older G5 iMac (OS 10.5.8). Ran in to the same activation issues. So, went online to the Adobe site, downloaded the CS2 files provided. But, as described earlier, the site did not provide or make available the last 2 Disk Images for the Professional Suite - which includes Acrobat 7.
    I am dire need to complete the Suite. any information on how to obtain the missing files?

  • I updated my ipad 2 from 4.3.3 to 5.1.1 and unable to do so. now, the ipad is not responding and indicates no capacity, software and serial number. As such, unable to restore device. Any advice/assistance will be appreciated.

    I updated my ipad 2 OS4.3.3 to 5.1.1 recently. Unfortunately, was not able to restore the device. I seem to have lost the ipad's info like: Name, Capacity, Serial Number and Software Version in the process. Despite repeated attempts, the device displays error messages to account for not being able to update and restore the same. Any advice/assistance will be much appreciated.

    Try DFU mode (Google is your friend, here is a link to one way:
    http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1034)
    If that does not restore your iPad, contact Apple or your local
    Apple Authorized Service Provider.
    Your iPad wasn't jailbroken previous to the upgrade, was it?
    Jailbreaking can cause instability and other problems with
    upgrades.

  • Missing software/hardware/serial number.

    Hey there.
    I have a treo 750 AT&T branded that i got shipped over from the states when the came out and were still unavailable in Australia where i live.
    Id love to be able to update it with the 2.25 but the AT&T one i downloaded says it only works with an updater with a service.
    Should i be using an unbranded update or am i missing something.
    Ironically as well when i hard reset my phone when i got it the software, hardware and serial number were erased in the start/system/about/phone.
    Is there anyway to get them back so i can try to get a legit download that will work because this having the time messed up and unable to DST it is making feel like hitting something (probably the phone) with a hammer.
    Any help would be appreatiated.
    Cheers
    Post relates to: Treo 750 (AT&T)

    Ok. At this point I tell you, you have the update. Next thing to try is a hard reset of the device. Right now something is wrong with it you should have on that device a remote desktop in the start menu or in the programs. If it is not there we need to see if we can get the device back working correctly. Now this is up to you if you don't mine not seeing the software/hardware/or serial number and not having the remote desktop you do not need to hard reset.

    If you have any questions post back.

  • How do I locate my software's serial number

    Hi all,
    I'm just migrating onto a new imac and want to transfer my Lightroom software.  I cant locate my serial number on any correspondence (it was downloaded) and wondered if it was possible to locate within the software itself.
    Appreciate any advice.
    Cheers,
    Louise

    I'm doing this in iTunes 11 on Windows.
    So, in iTunes, if you don't have the menu bar showing, hit ctrl+b.
    Now, make sure you have something to write with handy, as you're going to need to be fast.
    When the menu bar pops up, hold down ctrl and click Help and then About iTunes (hold down the ctrl button the entire time).
    A small screen will pop up with some scrolling information, a couple seconds in you'll see 'iPod S/N:'
    Write down the list of letters and numbers that comes after that, as that is the serial number of the last iPod that was plugged and synced with iTunes.
    You can repeat this process several times to be sure you get all the characters.
    You do NOT need to have your iPod plugged into iTunes to acces this information, the only necessary thing is that your iPod has been plugged into and synced with iTunes at least once (which you have, so good). For posterity: if it's never been plugged in, and you don't have the box, you might be out of luck.

  • Free student download cs2, but no serial number?!

    Hello,
    I am a German student and downloaded the free version of CS2 a few weeks ago. Now, I want to use it for my work and presentations and installed it.
    But I haven't got any serial number...
    Where can I find a serial number? This is a free download, but I can't find the number...
    Thank you,
    Caro ♥

    There is no free version of CS2.
