CS6 Creative Suite keeps asking to 'continue trial' and 'serial number' even though I own it.

Hello-
My office owns CS6 Creative Suite.
I needed to get After Effects CC for work so we downloaded Creative Cloud and then bought/downloaded After Effects CC onto my computer.
However- once we did this, my CS6 started asking to "continue trial" or for a "serial number"- but these are already owned applications. I cannot even get into them any more because of this.
This is a PC.
Does anyone know the solution to this?

Cloud takes over https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1584746 may help

  • Aperture keeps asking for my name and serial number

    Aperture keeps asking for my name and serial number, but only on one of my Macs. This is a new Mac that I restored from my old Mac. It made sense to have to put in the documentation the first time, but the program keeps asking for it. Any thoughts?

    Be sure to enter the serial number, when you are logged in from an account with Administrator priveleges - otherwise the serial number cannot be stored.
    Aperture is installed for all users on your mac, so the serial number is written to the system library, not the user library; this requires read/write access for administrators. Do you enter your serial number using an administrator account?
    SInce you migrated your system from another mac, you still may have an older ProAppSystemID file or Aperture cannot write to the System Library.
    To stop Aperture asking for the serial number, first check, if you still have an old file "ProAppsSystemID" in your System Library.
    Quit Aperture.
    Go to your MacintoshHD and open the folder "Library", then "Application Support", then "ProApps".
    Remove the File "ProAppsSystemID" to the Desktop, if it exist and restart Aperture.
    Reenter your serial number, hopefully for the last time.
    Sometimes Aperture writes this file to a temporary directory, when it cannot write to the Library. If the above does not work, look at the temporary directory /tmp
    Use the Finder's "Go" menu
         Go > Got to folder    and  enter /tmp into the textfield. If you see ProAppsSystemID there, move it to its proper location in /Library/Application Support/ProApps.
    Aperture must be running, and you will have to wait a few minutes to be seeing the file appearing the /tmp directory.

  • Trial version of CS6 Master Collection keeps asking me to validate a serial number.

    I downloaded the trial version of CS6 Master Collection for Windows. I installed it as a trial on a 64 bit windows machine. When I try to run any application, I am asked to validate a serial number even though none has ever been entered. I uninstalled, rebooted, downloaded and ran the latest version of the Adobe Cleaner and rebooted. I reinstalled and I am still being asked to validate a serial number. There have been registered versions of Photoshop CS 5 and CS5,5 on this machine, as well as a trial version of Photoshop CS6. I have tried everything I know. Help please?

    Hi,
    Can you please verify:
    It shows Validating Serial Number screen on every launch.?
    Does it hang their or shows an error?
    If it shows an error then on next screen does it prompt for entering new serial Number?
    Can you please send oobelib.log (in %temp% in windows and /tmp in Mac) so that I can help you in a better manner.

  • Hi, I would like to install my Creative Suite 5.5 Design Standard - I got the serial number and disk, but you are asking for another product and serial number that I dont have? What should I do?

    Hi, I would like to install my Creative Suite 5.5 Design Standard - I got the serial number and disk, but you are asking for another product and serial number that I dont have? What should I do?

    The serial number that you might have is an upgrade version & it will be asking for a previous qualifying version serial number.
    The issue can be different too, please contact Adobe Support for resolution: http://adobe.ly/yxj0t6

    I Have the same issue on a brand new iPad mini 2. My battery is only lasting up to 5 hours. I went on chat with Apple last night and they said my battery is fine and its a Safari issue. I'm literally losing 1% every 3-4 minutes. I tried recalibrating my battery, signing out of iCloud, shutting off all locations, turning off background app refresh, restoring network settings, restoring all, and finally restoring from iTunes with no luck. This is just awful. I got this iPad so I could use it on my long flight for a trip I have coming up, and unfortunately, it's not going to last that long, plus I'm concerned about how many times i will be recharging my battery because of this since battery's do have a life cycle dependent on the number of charges. This is frustrating and needs to be fixed ASAP and addressed by Apple.
    By the way, Apple told me to bring my device to the Apple Store because it's still under warranty. That's great and all, but I'm going to waste my time if there is no fix for this issue.
    Ok so you want Apple to address the problem, but yet you don't want to take it to them just in case they can't fix it? What if they can fix it? Complaining here certainly won't fix it.

  • T-bird is stuck on a msg in my main email account. I keep getting that msg over and over again even though it says there are 200+ msg waiting to be received.

    I have t-bird installed on both my desktop and laptop. The laptop is working fine. They were both running 24.6.0 until I updated the version on my desktop today after the problem occurred to 31.1.2. It still doesn't work. I keep getting the same message over and over again even though it's telling me that there are 200+ messages waiting to be delivered. This can't be an ISP problem as my laptop is on the same network and as I said, is working fine. The differences are: desktop running win 7 64 bit and laptop running win 7 32 bit.

    I gave up and went back to your original suggestion. I edited the popstate file and added a delete record for the msg that I kept getting over and over. The format was d longassid 0
    The single 0 for the timestamp is what I didn't know before. When I polled again, the record was deleted and the rest of my new messages downloaded.
    Thanks again for your help. Without it, I would still be scratching my head.

  • Open a document made in Creative Suite 6 because it is saved as InDesign, CC2014  even though my trial has expired before I saved this doc.

    I was on a chat with Anil who was away so long, I thought he was done with me.  However. He did not provide me an answer.  I was away from my computer for a minute and then he ended the chat.  It has no information about my problem.  How can I contact someone in person.  I can find no phone number for Adobe.  Chat is below. The product is InDesign CC 2014, which I explained to the person I was chatting with. I need to speak to someone in person if you are unable to solve my issue. Thanks.
    Info: You are now chatting with Anil Kumar.
    Anil Kumar: Hello! Welcome to Adobe Customer Service.
    loyce Powell-hopkins: Do I need to retype the problem all over again?
    Anil Kumar: Hi Loyce.
    info: Your chat transcript will be sent to [email protected] at the end of your chat.
    Anil Kumar: Loyce, could you please elaborate the issue more clearly?
    loyce Powell-hopkins: Hello. Just get me some help. I have a critical issue. Document has been saved in a trial version of Idd CC14 which expired some time ago. Why did this happen. Now I am unable to open the document with Creative Suite IdD 6. the trial converted all of this document, just today to Idd CC 14. I don't want to pay $29 to get my document opened.
    Anil Kumar: Thank you for elaborating the issue.
    Anil Kumar: May I know the product your are referring to?

    1 - moved so the InDesign experts may be able to help
    2 - as far as I know, you will not be able to open a newer file in an older InDesign program... but, see #1 above

    no it keeps asking me for a serial number, all the links that were sent for download non are for English
    this is crazy
    The Links provided to you are in English language..Do you see them in any other language? (if yes, screenshot please. )
    OR do you mean you are looking for installer in English language? (If that's the case, then please download the installer using that link, as it is a Multilingual installation package.)
    If i have wrongly interpreted your issue, please revert back with more details.
    Moreover, Can you attach the screenshot of the Acrobat application window, so that we can guide you more accurately?

  • IWork install asking for serial number even though installed from disc set

    Ok so two days ago I bought a MacBook Pro from Best Buy. It was one of those open package deals. Anyhow the MacBook was missing the software. I decided it might be a good idea to buy the Mac Box Set at the local Apple Store because I might need the OS disc at some point and I thought why not upgrade my iMac while I'm at it. So I went to an Apple Store and bought the Mac Box Set
    I install Snow Leopard. I then install iLife. Lastly I install iWork. Sort of. Seems the first two are fine but when I click to open any of the iWork apps it ask for me to insert a serial number. I did a search and discovered there was a trial version of iWork 08 on here so I deleted it and the current instal. The reinstalled. Still same issue.
    What should I do if it is still asking for a serial number?
    And just incase anyone is wondering if I have the disk....

    Good, there are many answered threads to your specific question.

  • LR 5 Trial and Serial Number

    I have a TRIAL VERSION of LR 5. It expired today. I just joined CC.
    LR5 is asking me for a Serial Number when I try to open it.
    How do I get LR 5 to recognize my CC membership?
    I also had a Photoshop CC trial on my computer which was expired, but that software has a button that says
    "License Software" and clicking on that allows me to sign in with CC membership, the Photoshop CC software recognized that and allowed me access.
    How do I get LR 5 to do the same?
    There is much I do not understand about the way Adobe does things. For instance if I go into Photoshop CC folder in Applications, there is an UNINSTALL option. I see no such option for LR 5 so that I could theoretically delete that and then reinstall LR from CC.
    There's something to be said for consistency in terms of ease of use by consumers.
    If someone could tell me how to get past the Serial Number Request with LR5 and get it to recognize my CC Membership that would be grealty appreciate. Just tried calling Adobe Support and the wait is nearly an hour.
    Thanks.

    Hi LaurieSpeech,
    Please navigate to Application/Utilities/Adobe Installers and look for Lightroom uninstaller and uninstall it. Run the CC cleaner tool to remove any leftover ruminants of Lightroom: http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html .
    Try installing Lightroom again from CC desktop.
    Please let us know whether it worked.
