CS2 Upgrade will not take Photoshop CS or 7.0 Serial Numbers

I'm attempting to install the Adobe Creative Suite 2 software (upgrade version) on a new Mac we have purchased to replace the employee's current Mac with. In the process it's asking for a serial number for Photoshop 5.0 or newer. I've entered in 4 different Photoshop 7.0 serial numbers and also a Photoshop CS serial number and they all come back stating the serial number I've provided does not qualify.
I am at a loss because it seemed to have worked fine doing this same process on another Mac that I setup for another user. I am really hoping to avoid going back to our original full copy of Photoshop 4.0 and upgrading all the software versions just to get to the 7.0 software so that the CS2 can detect the software on the hard drive.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what I need to do at this point?

I'm not sure what to tell you about this but I will tell you that CS2 is totally unsupported on Leopard, Snow Leopard and Intel Macs.
I'm assuming that this new machine is running Snow Leopard and is Intel based. You're likey to have a lot of problems with that configuration and you should consider moving up to CS4.
Nobody here can help with serial number issues. You'll need to contact Adobe directly.

  • Ios7 upgrade will not let me send text to certian mobile numbers

    Ios 7 upgrade will not let me send text to certain mobile numbers. Apple allows you to create your own custom label for a phone number. In my case, I have a number of landline and mobile numbers connected to a business that I call constantly. There are a number of businesses set up this way in my Iphone. I have changed the name of the contacts in these businesses, be it landline or mobile. But now it seems that I cannot send a text to Mobiles that I have changed the name of, from MOBILE to the persons name. Even changing it to the persons name and then mobile beside it .
    Anyone got any way around this
    Jon

    Hi Just got home and am sending you a screenshot of one f the contacts in my Ipone 4s with the ios 7 upgrade. Ive deleted a few of the numbers but you can see there are two of the mobiles on there. One has a persons name and one is just called mobile.
    the one with the persons name no longer has the text box beside it which would normally allow me to text that person.
    I did edit this contact and changed it back to "Mobile". I was then able to send a text as the text box was available for use

  • HT5622 My iPad will not take my Apple username and password since I upgraded to 7.0.2

    My iPad will not take my username and password since I upgraded to 7.0.2.

    try this
    Reboot device by pressing both the home button and sleep/wake (power) buttons at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
    If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings  (or for network connection issues 'reset network settings').
    (no media or data will be deleted from the device, this will only take a minute).

  • HT3728 Express will not take software upgrade.  Message says to install 5.6 and when I do it will not show, says not compatible with this version of Mac. 10.8 OS-X, why not?

    Unable to update airport express.  When connecting msg says to install 5.6, download and will not take install says it is not compatible.

    This is a dilemma. Older Express models require AirPort Utility 5.6.1 or a similar, older version of AU. Mountain Lion will refuse to install it. What to do?
    As it turns out AirPort Utility 5.6.1 runs perfectly fine on Mountain Lion. If you had the foresight to have archived it somewhere (such as with Time Machine or equivalent) you can simply copy the app to your computer and use it. The problem is that the installer package will refuse to work on a Mountain Lion system.
    If you don't have an already-extracted version of AU 5.6.1 there is a solution: you simply need Pacifist to extract the app from the installer package. I also found another technique described on this page:

  • CS 5.5 was crashing and reinstall will not take my serial number

    Hello,
    I was having many crashing issues on CS5.5 with Yosemite so I decided to download the trial again and reinstall. Now after the install, it will not take my serial number, even though it is listed in my adobe account history. HELP!!!!!
    Also, everytime I try and open a file in photoshop cs5, it crashes. I get a GPU warning sometimes as well in Yosemite.
    Thanks,

  • Express HD Upgrade will not accept Express V1 serial number for install

    Hi,
    I've been using FCE V1 for a while now, and just purchased FCE HD as a personal Christmas present Unfortunately it will not accept the (legitimate) serial number from the V1 product during the installation, so I'm stuck at this point. Is there any trick that I'm missing here, or does the Upgrade only work from V3 or V2 serial numbers?
    Thanks,
    Graham
    Mac Mini   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    I have found with some software (don't remember if that included my upgrade to FCE HD or no), that sometimes, the SN in printed in lower case on the sticky tag, but the upgrade will only take upper case (or visa versa). Try using the other case if it doesn't work.
    Also, you need the serial number from the sticky tag which came with the software. The SN display in the "about FCE" splash screen is incomplete (missing at least three letters/numbers at the end).

  • Mac mini server - will not take 4GB so-dimm in bank 0

    Mac mini server - will not take 4GB so-dimm in bank 0
    Hello,
    Memory works ok as long as the old 2gb 1066 so-dimm is in bank 0.
    Switching the dimms around is no go. It seems to need that bank 0 populated with an old 2gb.
    I can use only one 2gb and one 4gb for the mini server to boot.
    It seems to have a hard time figuring out the 2x4gb configuration.
    Tried PRAM and NVRAM reset. Always getting 3 beeps.
    Any chance of getting the full 8gb detected?

    Hi All,
    I had the same problem that you, I had a mac mini server late 2009 with 10.7.3 OS X, with 4 GB of memory.
    I have got these two memories on amazon:
    "8Go mémoire - Kit double canal SAMSUNG original 2 x 4 Go 204 broches DDR3-1066 PC3-8500 SO-DIMM (2x M471B5273BH1-CF8) mémoire portable ordinateur DD"
    First test to install in the mac mini:
    Slot 0 - 4 GB
    Slot 1 - 4 GB
    3 beeps
    2nd test
    Slot 0 -
    Slot 1 - 4 GB
    OK
    3rd Test:
    Slot 0 - 4 GB
    Slot 1 - 1 GB
    3 beeps
    4th Test:
    1 - 1 GB
    2 - 4 GB
    OK
    5th test:
    reset PMU
    Slot 0 - 4 GB
    Slot 1 - 4 GB
    3 bips
    6th Test:
    I did a test of the 2x4 GB in a mac mini 2010
    OK
    7th test:
    Slot 0 - 2 GB
    Slot 1 - 4 GB
    OK
    After to read this forum I gave up and I decided to let the mac mini with 6 GB. Well, as I wanted to try it again one last time, I tried to put the slot 0 memory forcing a bit. But I did not noticed nothing special.
    Well, at this last time, it works. 8 GB in the mac mini server
    here some screenshots:
    I hope this info will help you to resolve this problem. But seriously, I am not giving you nothing else than hope

  • Mac Mini 2.53 C2 Duo will not take any disc

    Hi all here is my problem… I have a Mac Mini C2 Duo 2.53 that will not take any disc DVD or CD when it is turned on. If I turn it of and put a DVD or CD in the slot it will load on boot and play and read. If I eject the disc and load a new disc with in 5 seconds it will load a new disc if I wait longer than 5 seconds I can't load any form of disc I have to turn off the Mac.
    I have Installed 2 different BD drives and 2 different DVD drives all with the same result. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers Patrick

    I have installed now 6 different drives all new… all do the same thing I could cry have reset the SMC a few times no luck. The drives work fine in a different Mac Mini just not in this one. Is weird that they all work when the Mini is booting but not afterwards. I don't want an external drive as this defeats me buying an older Mini with internal drive.

  • Rebel Xsi display stopped working will not take photo

    I have had this camera for a few years.  I took it with me and left it covered in the car (hot day) and now the display will not light up and the camera will focus on an object but will not take photo.  
    Would heat cause the display to stop working?  What can be done to possibly correct this issue?

  • Iphone bought in USA will not take greek sim card, iphone bought in USA will not take greek sim card

    I bought an iPhone 5 in Boston, "unlocked" . The salespeople told me it simply needed to have a sim card inserted, in any country outside the USA.
    When I went to my local phone store in Greece, I was told this iPhone will not take a Greek sim card.
    Now I have this very expensive phone which I cannot use in the place where I live.
    What do I do now?

    thanks so much. you give me courage.
    I am certain that this phone is legitimately unlocked,
    unless I was handed a locked by mistake, but I really doubt that.
    I emphasized to them where I was taking the phone, small island in Aegean, far from apple stores and assistance, also emphasized my weak computer knowledge.
    So far, I have only gone to the one local electronics store which services the national phone company.
    There is also a Vodaphone outlet, where I will have an exploratory conversation, as soon as possible,
    I also have yet to make it to the somewhat vestigial office of the national phone company.
    Thanks for hope and a sense of direction.

  • Adobe Flash Upgrade will not install after Firefox upgrade to 3.6.7

    I upgraded to Firefox 3.6.7. After the upgrade I got a message that I needed to upgrade Adobe Flash due to security vulnerabilities. The Flash upgrade will not install. It simply sits and never installs no matter how long I wait.
    == This happened ==
    Just once or twice

    Thanks for your response. I have previously reviewed this. The only potential problem it seems to resolve is having 2 versions of Shockwave installed. I only have one. The only thing I can think of to do is just uninstall the one version and see if it will trigger an installation. When I go to the Flash install site, I agree to the terms and get the next screen that says download will start. I never get a message asking if it's ok to run or anything. No matter where I look for a download for Flash I wind up at the same place with the same problem. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Pre9 will not take large photo files, is 13 any better

    pre9 will not take large photo files is 13 any better

    What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 running on - with version 9.0/9.01, it is a 32 bit application whether it is run on 32 or 64 bit computer. So, you will get that "too large" error message when your still total pixel count exceeds the limit.
    If you go to Premiere Elements 10, 11, 12, or 13 (the current version) and you are running one of those programs on a 64 bit computer, each will be a 64 bit application and program will not throw off the "too large" error message. I have challenged these latter applications with stills 10000 x 7500, and each was imported with issue.
    But, the question becomes, because you can, should you? No matter how high the resolution of the image, it will be forced into the resolution characteristic of the import. Just how much you can get away with in this regard goes to your computer resource and how many of these stills oversized for the project settings.
    If you put Premiere Elements 13 on a Window 7 or 8 32 bit system, I am fairly confident that you end up with "too large" error message. That would not be the case if Premiere Elements 13 on a Windows 7 or 8 64 bit system.
    Please review and consider. Any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.
