  • HT201209 I have credit but have not got my old redemption code. I dont need it (according to the help on apple) but cant purchase as I am been asked for the code how do I get around this?

    I have redeemed a code a few months back and bought some music. I have credit left but am still being asked for a redemption code. I no longer have the code, but according to apples help topics I do not need it. How do I purchase without the code?

    OK, you need to follow these instructions to remove the old iCloud account:
    1.     Go to Manage your Apple ID and sign in with your current ID and password. Edit your ID back to the old email address. This is temporary. Do NOT verify it, do NOT change your password: Apple - My Apple ID
    2.     Go to Settings>iCloud and scroll to the bottom of the page. Depending on the iOS that you are running you will see either Delete Account or Sign Out. Click on this to Delete/Sign Out of the old iCloud account. Follow the prompts, and type in your current password when asked. Continue to follow the prompts until the account is signed out/deleted
    3.     Go back to Manage your Apple ID and sign in with the old email address and your current password, and edit your Apple ID back to the new ID. You may need to verify it again
    4.     Go back to Settings>iCloud and sign in with the new ID
    Cheers,

  • Student version Creative Cloud asks for serial number

    I have paid for Creative Cloud for several months. Now when I try to open Photoshop, Illustrator or something else, it started to ask me for serial number. I've tried signing out and reinstall, but it does't help!

    Ask for serial number http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/ccm-prompt-serial-number.html
    or
    This is an open forum, not Adobe support... you probably need Adobe staff support to help

  • I downloaded the trial version but I have a serial number for my disk, how do I activate my version?

    I downloaded the trial version but I've since received a serial number for the disk I received, how do I enter my serial number to activate my account.

    After downloading and installing the trial version, you can activate the software by launching it and entering the serial number when prompted.
    Else you can launch the software, go to the 'Help' menu and select 'Activate' and then enter the serial number when prompted to activate the software.

  • Downloaded FULL version but still asked for previous serial number as if it were an upgrade.

    So I received the serial number for the standalone version of Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 Student and Teacher edition that I purchased from the Adobe online store.  After it downloaded I received a serial number.  When I installed the software and attempted to activate it using the provided serial number the pop-up box stated that the number I provided was for an upgrade version and that I needed to provide the serial number from the previous install; something that I do not have because I have never owned Lightroom before.
    Before you start, I was very careful in selecting the FULL version, please see the attached image of the shopping cart which clearly indicates that I have purchased the full version.  Further the email with the serial number gave no indication that I have purchased the upgrade version.
    So my question is, how do I get a non-upgrade serial number that will work with the software that I have installed??

    Here are the steps that I followed to purchase a full version of the software but for which I received an upgrade only serial #.
    1) Logged into my Adobe ID account and sought out "Products: For Education Customers" by clicking the link products link at the bottom of my account summary page.  This resulted in my being directed to the following URL:
    Products
    Here is a screen capture of the page which clearly states the page is for education customers.
    2) Press the BUY link beside the Lightroom for Students and Teachers Edition. Please note - THERE IS NO INDICATION THAT THIS IS AN UPGRADE VERSION.  Clicking the link results in the following URL:
    Products
    The only thing that changed is that the buy icon changed to an "Add to Cart" icon.
    Here's the screen shot.  Notice that it still says Products: For Education Customers at the top and there is no mention of this being an upgrade version.
    3) Press the "Add to Cart" icon. Which loads a new page.  Here's the URL:
    https://www.adobe.com/ca/cart.edu.html
    And here's the screen shot:
    Please notice the price.  It will become relevant when you read the chat that I had with "customer service" last night.  Also, once again, absolutely no indication that this is an upgrade version. In fact, if someone at Adobe would actually look at this screen shot they would see that just below the text indicating the product's name is a line that states: "I want to buy:  Full"
    4) Proceed to Checkout.  After providing my Adobe ID and password again I was directed to this URL:
    https://store1.adobe.com/ca/cart/checkout.edu.html#null
    Here's the screen shot, please notice that the content of the cart states "Full, Mac/Win, English, Download"  Once again, absolutely no indication that this is an upgrade version.
    5) I provided my credit card information and then received the following email from Adobe.  A close reading of the message will not reveal anything about this purchase being an upgrade.

    A second email with somewhat different formatting but with the same details was received immediately following the one quoted above.
    6) Followed the instructions provided in this message and then installed Lightroom and entered the serial number provided above once the software launched.  The pop-up box then informed me that I had been provided with an upgrade serial number and that the serial number from my previous purchase of Lightroom was needed.  This was the first indication that I had not been provided with the product that I thought I had purchased.
    7) That's when the nightmare that Adobe calls customer service began.  Here's the transcript of the 30 minute entirely useless chat I had yesterday.

  • 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.

  • Lightroom 5.7 just installed, asking for serial number, not listed in online account info

    My online account info shows serial numbers for versions 2,3, and 4 of Lightroom, but not 5.  I've been using 5.2 for about a year, since I signed up for the cc photography bundle.  My cc desktop app shows only PS cc and PS 2014 installed.  How can I get a valid serial number to activate the LR 5.7 I just installed as an update?

    I have the same thing happen to me. Every time I start Aperture, it asks for the license. Once I have entered the license key it lets me use the application. However, the next time I use the application again, i get the same problem. I have tried reinstalling the application, and am asked for the license key at the beginning of the install and again once the package is started. To no avail. And I get no other messages.
    I called Apple Support, and after booking a call with a support person (a Genius?), I got one who, after reading the summary of my problem in the service request, said simply "this is for Aperture? Aperture is a Microsoft product, you have to call Microsoft". And that was that.
    Please, anyone have any ideas?

  • CS masters is activated but still asking for serial number and stating it's invalid!

    I recently used fireworks, but at startup it suddenly asked me for my serial number for CS6 master collection. upon entering the serial number it states that this is invalid!

  • My Cs5 disc is lost but i have a serial number how can i get it on my computer?

    I have CS5 serial number but i have lost the disc and am trying to install it on my computer. How can i do it?

    Hi dutchallen1,
    You can use a download instead of the disk and license with your serial. The link can be found here: Other downloads select CS5, the program you use to have on disk. Please change the language of the page so you will get the correct language. Serials are limited to the language and the program so please be carefully selecting the correct suite or single program. Good luck!

  • I cannot download Mavericks - it is stuck on "error occurred". How do I get around this?

    I tried to download Mavericks but got message "Error occurred". How can I abort whatever went wrong and get a successful download?

    Make sure your Mac can run Mavericks >  OS X Mavericks: System Requirements
    Apps such as Little Snitch, Growl, and MacKeeper can prevent apps from downloading
    Disable anti virus software if installed
    Make sure the firewall is turned off in System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Firewall

    What iPhone do you have? You can check in settings>>general>> about.
    If you have a 3G you cannot update beyond iOS 4.2.1. The 3G is over 4 years old an was discontinued over 2 1/2 years ago. You need the latest ios to run the latest versions of some apps. If you have a 3GS you can update.
    If your phone is not responding, reset it by pressing and holding down both the home button ad lock/ sleep button simultaneously until the Apple logo appears.
