Deactivate Adobe Web Premium CS3

I installed Adobe Web Premium CS3 on a new notebook and I tried activating the software. It failed due to a previous activation. I no longer have the previous notebook. How can I deactivate/activate on the new notebook?
Thanks.
Rudy

I'm able to renenter the serial key. I then go through the process of trying to activate when the prompt returns the following message:
"The maximum number of activations allowed for this copy ... has been reached."
It's only been installed on one other notebook which I've since returned. It gives me the option to deactivate then reactivate but of course I can't deactivate. So at this point the software isn't installed anywhere.
I'd love to deactivate but that's just not possible. I tried phoning customer support and I was on hold for 1 hr and 25 minutes. I gave up.
I had a similar problem with a Microsoft product. They answered their phone and I was promptly helped. For all the punishment they take in the media, at least someone picked up. Adobe? Still trying.
If anyone can suggest something please let me know.

Adobe Web premium CS3 activation without internet connection?

Hello,
I while back I purchased a copy of Macromedia MX2004 and then purchased an upgrade to Adobe Web premium CS3. I have used in the past both products and registered and activated them without any problems. After not using the software for sometime I decided to install the upgrade Adobe web premium cs3 software on a new machine. The PC however does not have an internet connection so I am struggelling to register and activate the product. I have tried ringing the activation number however am told it no longer supports tel activation and these products. I have both serial numbers for MX2004 and indeed the upgrade CS3 product however cannot use them until I get an authorisation code. I cannot do this as the PC I have installed the product on does not have an internet connection ??!
Can anyone help ?
Thanks in advance.

You need to contact Adobe Support either by chat or via phone when you have serial number and activation issues. There might be a problem even in that because CS3 and earlier products are no longer supported by Adobe Support. Still you might find someone who is willing to help if they are able to do anything.

Educational Adobe Web Premium CS3, Install Without A CD Drive?

Im working on my school's website at the moment but am unfortunately forced to use a school computer (very slow) because I can't install Adobe Web Premium onto my laptop. I have the Alienware M11x (R2 I believe, if it matters), which doesn't come with a CD drive, and I don't have an external drive available. I was wondering if it was possible that I could convert the CD's contents into an .ISO file and use a program to mount it as a virtual drive. Just copying the contents onto a flashdrive seems to work right up until install, when an error is returned asking me to insert the CD into a drive. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
- if this is in the wrong forum, I apologize, this just seemed to be the most fittiing.

Deactivate Adobe Web Premium CS5 problem

Hello,
I have Creative Suite Web Premium CS5. On old computer, the deactivate voice in menu "?" exist but in the Window of Adobe Creative Web Premium CS5, receive this message:
"Connect to internet and press continue".
Acrobat 9 Pro is deactivated without problem and internet is ok. I have a new computer but the number of pc is two and I can't install the suite on new computer, if the deactivate process is not completed on old computer first... I have removed antivirus software, not exist firewall or proxy in this moment on old computer.

Check your router/ firewall. There is still a port being blocked which is not necessarily the one used by Acrobat. in case of persisting problems try a network sniffer liek Wireshark to see where your packets bounce....

Upgrade from English Adobe Web premium to Swedish version???

I have a licensed version of Adobe Web Premium CS3 (English Version). Can I buy the latest version (6) from adobe.com and use the upgrade option and buy the Swedish version?

Yes, if you do a Creative Suite language crossgrade then you should be able to change from one language to another.

Web Premium CS3 & CSS error...

I'm using Windows Vista
and Adobe Web Premium CS3 (Dreamweaver specifically
for this issue).
I have a CSS that I created and it appears correctly in
Dreamweaver but when I go to preview it in IE7 none of my CSS
formating comes over. In example, no colors, images or even my spry
vertical menubar.
One more thing... my work files are stored on a Win2003
server not on my laptop.

Sounds like you need to upload your CSS files to the
webserver your testing it on.

I want to do a clean install of Windows 7 Pro on my computer and my installation of Adobe Design Premium CS3 is not functioning. I cannot start it to get in and deactivate the Creative Suite installation.

I want to do a clean install of Windows 7 Pro on my computer and my installation of Adobe Design Premium CS3 is not functioning. I cannot start it to get in and deactivate the Creative Suite installation.

if you're using the same computer hardware to reinstall your cs3, you don't need to deactivate first.
but if there's a significant hardware change you can ask adobe support for an activation count reset. contact adobe support by clicking here and, when available, click 'still need help', https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html

"Component Install Failed" while reinstalling Web Premium CS3

I purchased Web Premium CS3 about a year and a half ago, and have been using it successfully. However, my machine recently experienced some operating system issues and the decision was made to reinstall the OS. I was very careful to deactivate my CS3 software beforehand.
Now I am trying to reinstall my software and I am receiving an error message that simply says "Component Install Failed." What should I do?

Run the Cleaner tool: http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
Delete the caps.db in C:\Program Files\Common files\Adobe\caps and its backups
Reinstall the programs
You will get the same error
Uninstall it again from your Add or Remove Programs system control panel without deleting the caps
Reinstall again
This is a bug in the CS3 installer that requires this convoluted procedure. And naturalyl make sure you have sufficient user privileges and turned off your security tools or other potential interferences.

Wanted to know if Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Design Premium is included in Adobe Web Premium

Wanted to know if Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Design Premium is included in Adobe Web Premium. I also wanted to know how can I transfer the license from an old computer to a new one if I throw the old computer away. Would need the steps or do you just deactivate the old one and if so do I take any information from the old computer

Ok basically I have a user that has an old computer running on XP and I'm in the process of upgrading her machine but she said she had
Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Design Premium
Acrobat X Pro
but the only programs I have are
Acrobat Pro_10_Web
Web Premium_CS5_LS1
Web Premium_CS5_5
Adobe Acrobat Pro X
So which would I use to get the requested software installed on her machine or do I have to buy another package or program. Also if I have Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Design Premium and Acrobat X Pro on the old machine is there a way to take the license information off the old machine and download the Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Design and install it with the serial from the old machine I would be throwing away?

Can I update to Photoshop CS6 from a Web Premium CS3 ?

Hello everyone,
The question is directly in the title. I bought 4 years ago a Creative Suite Web Premium CS3. Today, I only use Photoshop and Illustrator and would like to update just these softwares to CS6. Can I do it ? Can I just update these 2 softwares even I did not buy them separately ?
Thanks for your help !

Unfortunately, no.
You can only upgrade a Creative Suite to another Creative Suite.
With CS3, you have until Dec 31, 2012 to upgrade to CS6. After that, CS3 is no longer eligible for upgrade, so then you pay full price for CS6.
http://www.adobe.com/au/products/creativesuite/faq.html
"Am I eligible for upgrade pricing from an earlier Creative Suite edition to an individual CS component?
No. Adobe does not offer upgrade pricing for customers wishing to move from a suite edition to an individual CS component. For complete upgrade information for the product you are interested in, consult the upgrade eligibility chart on that product's buying guide page."
Or you can join the Creative Cloud

New Laptop... how to transfer Adobe Web Standard CS3

I just bought a new Dell laptop, and I want to unstall the
Adobe Web
Standard CS3 from my old laptop and install it on the new.
What's the recommended way to do this to preserve the
installation count?
Thanks,
Bob

Then here's what I would do:
1. Quit DW.
Find this folder -
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application
Data\Macromedia\Dreamweaver
CS3\Configuration\Snippets
(these folders are normally hidden - you may have to use
Explorer > Tools >
Folder Options to unhide them)
This is where DW saves your custom snippets. If you don't see
that folder,
then it means you haven't saved any custom snippets, and can
ignore this
step. If you do see that folder, then copy "Snippets" onto
some
transportable medium.
2. Find all the MXP files on your old computer (those are
your extensions)
and place them onto transportable medium.
3. Start DW and under HELP, find Deactivate. This will reset
your install
count.
4. Install DW and activate on the new computer. When you
start DW, this
will also create the folders in the Documents and Settings
hierarchy.
5. Copy the Snippets folder from the old installation into
the analogous
location on the new computer.
6. Use Extension Manager on the new computer to install your
extensions.
Bada bing, bada boom....

Error installing DW from the web premium CS3 suite

I have DW 8 educational installed. I tryed installing the web
premium cs3, all the programs got installed execpt for DW. so I
uninstalled DW 8 and all associsted files and registry from a list
I found in this forums. still I coudn't install DW. the error is
not specific it is: "an error occured while installing DW".
I don't know what else to do.
Thanks

I would first go to Adobe's website and check FAQs there for
similar
problems. They have a system of fixes that you must first go
through
before they help you more.
Once you have exhausted those options, call them.
I was lucky in that I had an error number that I could use
and when I've
called Tech Support, they got me up and running "pretty
quick."
I went through a similar situation but mine was getting
caught up on
Adobe Acrobat.
