Enter Serial number, click finish and lightroom just closes

I have a serial number that I purchased. I thought you could install it on both a desktop computer and a laptop. It works fine on my desktop. When I tried to put it on my laptop, I enter the code, click next and wether I enter registration info or not and click finish, Lightroom just closes and when you try to open it again it goes back to the "you have 0 days left on your trial, purchase or buy" window. First I completely uninstalled Lightroom and re-downloaded it. Got the same thing. So then I figured it was because I couldn't download it on my laptop so I got ANOTHER copy from from the school I teach at. Its doing the same thing!?! What gives? I just want to use Lightroom on my laptop! Please help! THANKS!

You are installing the wrong version. Either you have downloaded the trial or the perpetual licensed version.
Lightroom for Creative Cloud needs to be installed only from the Adobe Creative Cloud App - it will not ask you for a serial number.

    I am trying to install Lightroom and I am OK until it asks for a serial number. I purchased Lightroom from B&H and the have entered the seal number on the the B&H invoice. Nothing happens, not all the entry boxes are filled with the serial number that was provided by B&H. I looked for a serial number on and in the box it came in, nada. Need a bit of help here, what can I do?

    Hi, I just installed CS6 master collection from order history and when I try to enter Serial Number it tells me that: Serial number you provided is valid, but qualifying product can not be found on this computer. Then it gives me options under drop down menu but Master Collection CS6 is the only one not appearing in a drop down menu.

    Your CS6 must have been purchased as an upgrade.  What it is asking you to select/provide is the name/serial number of the previous version you purchased that qualifies you to install and activate the CS6 upgrade version... this would be likely be one of CS3 thru CS5.5.

  • My dad has the original software and i can't install the program because my dad is in the US and I'm in the Philippines. Now, I asked the serial number of his adobe lightroom. How can I download the software using the serial number? thanks.

    If you just need a copy of the software, then download the trial copy of Lr available from Adobe. On entering your serial number it will then become a full copy.

  • Have to enter serial number again and again and again...

    Hello,
    i purchased logic studio (as upgrade 9.17) earlier this year. if i want to start compressor or soundtrack pro (also in the package), i am asked to enter the serial number (of the upgrade) plus the usb-dongle for logic 7. Then the application works fine. But the next time i'd like to start it again, i am asked again for serial number and dongle. And then again again and again...What's wrong? Whatt can i do? Thanks for answering.

    Click  in the menu bar.
    Highlight the serial number, copy it and paste it, instead of manually entering it.
    Best.

    I bought a new computer and downloaded my lightroom 4 to it. When I installed the program it asked for my serial number and I imputed it. Then it asked for my previous serial number from my original lightroom 3 purchase. Since I upgraded to lightroom 4 I don't have the serial number for the version 3. How do I get the serial number from my 3 version so I can activate my version 4 program

    If you have Lightroom 3 still installed, you can get it from there.
    If you don't and you have your box/disk, it should be on there.
    IF you don't have either of those,and you registered your software, you can log into your Adobe account and retrieve it there.

  • Just started up my Mac Mini out of the box, using a USB windows keyboard, it will not recognize letters so I am unable to enter serial number.  Anything I can do to get the mini mac right out of the box to recognize the windows keyboard?

    Just started up my Mac Mini out of the box, using a USB windows keyboard, it will not recognize letters so I am unable to enter serial number.  Anything I can do to get the mini mac right out of the box to recognize the windows keyboard?  Do I have to buy an Apple Keyboard to get it to work right out of the box?

    Is this a normal USB keyboard or is there anything specialized about it? Does this keyboard require you to install any special software to use it on a Windows box? Or is it usually a plug & play keyboard?
    Normally if a Mac does not recognize a keyboard it asks you to press certain keys to identify the keyboard. What is happening on screen with this keyboard? What serial number are you referring to?

  • Elements 12 will not allow me to enter serial number on installation

    elements 12 will not allow me to enter serial number on installation

    Hello,
    did you purchase your product from these firms like Amazon? If yes, this is not a serial number, only a code with which you can request a serial number from Adobe. Please have a look at http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html. (Start here: How did you purchase your product?)
    The following part, so I just see at least, ceased to exist on my Adobe website, everything takes place in the link from above. I leave it as an info yet, it might still fit for you. For this purpose, please click your way through to your Adobe Store and find the button "Get Serial Number". Fill in the form and after a while you will get the real serial number.

  • Entering serial Number on Expired LR4 Trail Version

    My trial LR4 has expired.  I have a serial number.   When I start LR I get a screen that says my trial has expired and LR will now quit.   My only option is to press OK, and the program quits.  
    I have read other responses, telling me to use the HELP menu, but this kicks me into my browser, and onto the adobe help site.
    another suggestion was to click on a link inside the pop up window, but there is none on my computer MAC OS 10.6.8

    I tried that.   Deleted lightroom files, preferences for adobe and Some other adobe files as well.
    After redownloading, and installing, I get the same screen telling me that LR is going to quit
    Thanks for the advice

    I don’t really know if it’ll work, but you could try uninstalling and re-installing the trial and maybe the first time through the installer, it’ll ask for the serial number?

  • After install when starting photoshop will not load so I can enter serial number

    after installing photoshop cs3 on windows 7 when I start photoshop it will not load so I can enter serial number. why?

    iOS devices cannnot be tracked or located with just the serial number. Unless you shared your Apple ID and password with anyone, then your account cannot be accessed at the iTunes Store.

  • Serial number for iMac and Lap top

    I have just upgraded to LR5. I have it set up on my IMac no problem. I am wanting to be able to use it on my laptop also. In previous versions of LR i have been able to use the same Serial Number for laptop and the iMac (as long as they are both not running at the same time), however I am not able to do this with LR5? Do I need to buy another serial number? If so, how do i do this?
    Thanking you greatly in advance,
    Lauren

    Hi! I have the same problem. Lightroom 5 installed correctly in my MBP but when I try to install it on my iMac (with the same serial number and Adobe ID) it does not work because "not valid", as it says.
    I've read that the same user could use the program at least in 2 different computers, so this was a big - sad - surprise. I'm quite disappointed with it and soon I will get in touch with the Adobe assistance

  • How to enter serial number for sale order line  which is in shipped status

    Hi All,
    We have 2 different items which are defined as Serialized at Sale order issue at item definition.
    In one sale order,User has forgot to add serial number to one of the item at Ship confirm stage.
    He has entered serial number correctly to other item.
    Now the both Sale order lines are in Shipped status if we view them through Shipping>transactions.
    I am technical guy and new to OM.Could you please let me know the process to enter the serial number for the item to which user has missed it
    Thanks,
    Satya

    Hi Satya,
    Since the item is already shipped, you cannot enter serial number for this line.
    you have to enter serial numbers after pick confirm only.
    check this note
    How to Enter Serial Numbers in the Shipping Transactions Form [ID 1235403.1]
    As a workaround for the previous lines do RMA and try to receive the goods back to your subinventory.
    For all new transactions follow the above notes.
    Thanks
