CS4 ReInstall - At reinstall, CS4 accepts my License #.  At first start up, it states its wrong.

At the point of re-installing my CS4, the system CONFIRMS and ACEEPTS my License # that came with my cd's.  The install was done WITH admin rights.
At first start up after install, it states my License # is wrong.
Why?

Try this:
Uninstall CS4 completely.
Set your system date back to a date just after November 1, 2008.
Reinstall and launch it.
If it works, reset your date back to today.
If not, you'll probably need to contact customer service: https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html or 1 (800) 833-6687

  • I purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 from Amazon.  It has been installed successfully.  However, when it comes up asking me to Accept the Licensing Agreement it continues to loop back to that screen.  I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling it but s

    I had previously purchased a DVD disk from Amazon.  I did get the program to install today.  However it continues to loop back to the screen where you accept the licensing agreement.  I had lost the previous serial number and was given a new one by Adobe.
    After trying over and over again to install the version from their download, I purchased a new copy from Amazon.  I am still getting the same loop on the software where it asks you to Accept the Licensing Agreement.  Short of reformatting my hard drive and starting with a clean PC, I have no idea what to try.  Is the previous software installed somewhere?  I had uninstalled it prior to downloading and installing the new software.  Any help is appreciated!

    I'm going to try reinstalling Windows 7 and installing the software that way.  I've reinstalled it before so am not concerned about taking that step.  If I need further assistance, I'll add a reply.  Thanks!

  • Acrobat 9 wants licence - CS4 Design Premium license doesn't work?

    I have CS4 Design Premium that I upgraded from CS3 Design Premium. It has been installed and all programs working for quite some time.
    Recently I uninstalled CS3 and CS4 wanted the license re-entered. I found my CS4 box and entered that license number in, but it also wanted the CS3 number as the elegible upgrade. I couldn't find it.
    Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Illustrator, Acrobat all of them kept asking for the license, so kept clicking past the dialog that said, I only had "x" days left. When it got to "0" days, I had to dig through the back room until I finally found CS3.
    That made the entire suite work except for Acrobat. Acrobat seems to have a different activation than the rest of the suite, but it won't take my CS4 number.
    What can I do??

  • Can't read PDFs! "Accept User License Agreement"

    Hi. I use a MacBook Air and I have always been able to read PDFs until now when I get the message "Before continuing, accpet user license agreement." I have tried reinstalling reader and following suggestions on other forum discussions but nothing seems to help. I really need to view PDFs! Thanks for your help!!

    Mac HD/Applications
    Double click the Adobe Reader app and "accept" the license agreement.
    You can use it after that.

  • I am unable to accept the license agreement

    The license agreement appears when I first open acrobat. I click the agree button and the license box disappears. The very next time I enter acrobat I am prompted to accept the license agreement again. This is affecting my ability to open pdf files in my browser. I am using a mac with Safari.

    You know, with Mac OS you don't really need Reader to view (non-fillable) PDFs. You have "Preview", part of your OS, that uses PDF as its native document format.
    It's not good for "fillable" PDFs however, so we'll look at Reader and how to get it working. I'm going on the assumption (since you didn't actually say) that you're trying to open the PDFs online in Safari.
    Download the offline installer: http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    Save it, but don't run it yet.
    Go to: Mac HD/Applications
    Trash the Reader 11 Application from there
    Go to: MacHD/library/Internet Plugins
    Trash the AdobePDFviewer.plugin from there
    Trash the AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin also
    Empty the trash
    Mount the DMG and run the installer to reinstall Reader
    When it finishes, reboot and open Reader from the Applications folder
    Accept the License Agreement and then close Reader
    Relaunch Safari
    Go to: Safari>Preferences>Security and make sure that "Allow all other plugins" is checked
    You should be able to open PDFs in Safari

  • Logic does not see my hd omni as an input device. Any ideas?  I've been told to reinstall logicpro - but apple won't let me because it says its already installed on this machine.

    I'm having the same issue with a file called IMG_2353.MOV that was imported into iPhoto from my iPhone and also have to manually select the items to import (so the rogue file doesn't error everything out). I've tried using Image Capture to locate/delete the file directly from my iPhone, but even though I can SEE it in Image Capture, I can't delete it or anything. This is VERY frustrating! My friend/Apple guru's only suggestion was to backup my phone then restore it through iTunes. Risky but should do the trick. I'm too scared to try, though!

  • Firefox will not open, and I can't uninstall/reinstall because it says "close Firefox first"

    After running Ccleaner today (and it asked me to "close Firefox or the internet cache will not be cleared", but Firefox was closed or so I think), I can't open Firefox at all; double-clicking the Firefox icon on the desktop does nothing, and no other way works. I thought of doing an uninstall/reinstall but it says "close Firefox first" - but for me it is truly closed.

    See if you can Force Quit things holding CMD+Option+esc keys.

    Firefox 3.6.8 will not start. I have to go to safe start, click reset to default, ok, then the shutdown box appears, I click cancel and it will open. I have rest profile, uninstalled and reinstalled, clicked alll he boxes on safe start, tried an older version need help. in English
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == either after I last updated to 3.6.6 or .7 or reset my inernet exploerer values to default

    I had same problem where Firefox 3.6.8 would not start or open. Spent many hours trying different things to fix it. Uninstall of previous version and reinstall did not make any difference. Finally, after uninstalling Firefox, I searched for Firefox folders and files on my computer, deleted and removed all Firefox folders and files - deleted anything and everything related to Firefox so that it will be as if I was going to download Firefox for the first time ever. Then, using another browser, I downloaded Firefox 3.6.8 and installed it. It could be that some Add-Ons or something else from the older version of Firefox or profile was interfering with the new one. It was easier to delete remove everything and install all over again clean than to figure out which part was causing the problem.
    Keep in mind, when you delete all Firefox folders and files from your computer, you are deleting all your bookmarks and all your Add-ons. If you want to keep those bookmarks, you might want to save the URLs someplace safe to bookmark them again before deleting them. You need to re-install the Add-ons also. Upon installation, it asks if you want to import bookmarks and settings from another browser or settings you might have. I imported them from my other browser. Now, Firefox works. I also installed up-to-date Add-ons.
    I hope this helps. Always keep more than one browser functioning on your computer, just in case one fails.

  • Help! I reinstalled my Mac and erased my iWeb page in the program.Its published, is there any way to download the pages from Mobile Me?

    Help! I reinstalled my Mac and erased my iWeb page in the program.Its published, is there any way to download the pages from Mobile Me?

    To download your pages from MobileMe simply mount your iDisk.
    Then navigate to the Web > Sites folder where the pages are.
    You can't do anything with them however, since iWeb cannot import them. But it's nice to know that you can download them.
    You need the domain.sites2 files, iWeb uses to store its assets. Perhaps you have a backup?
    See this page for pictures and movies to learn how to use the domain file :

    Im trying to open a document but im getting a message that i have to launch adobe reader and accept user licensing agreement and then relaunch adobe reader  I tried that and the same message keeps appearing. Help?

    Unless there is a special function in Adobe Reader that you require then try opening the document with Preview. I don't have Adobe Reader installed on my computers and find Preview does all I require.

  • Why do I have to activate CC every few weeks and repeatedly have to accept the license terms?

    It seems like I have to accept the license terms about once per week for CC applications and every few weeks I'm asked to activate the software yet again. I suspect that this is not normal.
    This is a Windows 8.1, 64-bit system.

  • Why will reader XI not let me accept the license agreement upon startup? Only Decline is available.

    I have had to restore my Win 7 64-bit system due to Reader XI crashing on start-up due to internal error and it took Acrobat XI Pro with it. Now I cannot accept the license agreement. Tried Tab-Enter and that did not work. Any ideas? I need this for college classes immediately.
    Thanks.

    I don't know why this is happening; I have never seen this before.  Try the following
    using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader
    double-click on Eula.exe and accept the License Agreement
    If that still gives you the same problem, set the registry entry that you have accepted the License Agreement:
    download, unzip, then run the registry script from https://files.acrobat.com/a/preview/33ef697f-e339-49ab-bb3e-afc9057ece66
