Error "The serial number is not valid for this product" | Creative Suite

HI together,
I'm very annoyed about the fact that I payed for Adobe Creative Suite Production Premium 5 (EDU version) and now I'm not able to use it on my new Mac. The Support team (Chat) from Adobe told me several times that the product/serial or whatever was canceled but this doesn't help me to get the product working and I won't pay again for this software. So what's the reason for cancellation? I can't see reasons for this and I don't understand why Support team can't help me. Already found Error "The serial number is not valid for this product" | Creative Suite but this doesn't helped me.
Regards
René

Maybe this is also useful... They told me I canceld this by myself which is not the truth. I had a Windows machine and used Creative Cloud as well but I only canceld the Cloud, not my Serial Number for Production Premium...
So who is able to reactivate my Serial Number so that I'm able to use my product?

  • I'm trying to reinstall photoshop CS5 in a new laptop but i have an "The serial number is not valid for this product" error

    I'm trying to reinstall photoshop CS5 in a new laptop (pc) but i have an "The serial number is not valid for this product" error.
    I have deactivated photoshop in the old computer.
    The old laptop have photoshop installed with the DVD but the new laptop don't have DVD so i downloaded cs5 from Download CS5 products. ¿Maybe doing this is an error?

    the installation files work the same whether from a  disc or download, but there are other ways to mismatch a serial and installer.

  • I'm installing PS CS5 Exteneded on my new laptop. I get an error saying the serial number is not valid for this product. Help!

    I'm installing PS CS5 Exteneded on my new laptop. I get an error saying the serial number is not valid for this product. Help!

    If you purchased it from Adobe, it is registered and that would prove ownership as well as the emaill they sent with the serial number.
    https://www.adobe.com/account/my-products-services.html#MyProductsHeader
    Sign in with the email and password that you bought it under.
    Click on the triangle next to your product and you will see the serial number assigned to you.
    You have a valid record and proof of ownership. Try again.

  • When i try to install my newly bought CS5 it says"The serial number is not valid for this produkt" what to do???

    When i try to install my newly bought CS5 it says"The serial number is not valid for this produkt" what to do???

    Oh my, I hope so too but its pretty common on these types of sites - even eBay sellers do it. Its all about the way they word it. Some sellers are very crafty in the way they word their ads misleading the buyer into thinking they're getting a legitimate and licensed product when it's actually not. Be careful in any future products you buy on these kinds of sites.
    My advice is to quickly write an email to the seller and demand to know what you just bought - Be VERY specific and thorough with your questions - for example on ebay  I bought a computer that had CS5 installed on it (but it didn't come with the install disks)  This particular seller installed CS5 or 6 as well as the Microsoft Suites on all of his used pc's. So before I bid, I sent an email to him asking if it included the product codes for the CS5 because I intended to register it for Adobe support. He advised me that he bought bulk licenses for all his software, he told me exactly where the product codes were on a document and they were in fact legit.
    Also check the return policy of the Site (not the seller) sometimes they offer a little protection to their customers. Be sure to contact their support department and their Fraud department if it turns out you were scammed. And definitely give negative feedback to the seller.
    One more thing, you should  also check with the Adobe licensing support department. In fact, do this FIRST - so that you're sure the code is no good. Sometimes the product codes have expiration dates (though I've never heard of it happening to entire suite) If this is the case they will issue you a new code free of charge.
    Good Luck. I really hope it all works out for you.

    trying to install my CS5 on a 2nd machine - a win 8 64bit machine. i purchased on my macbbok pro. my cs5 is saying the serial number is not valid for this product

    Perpetual Photoshop versions support one platform. For a fee you can switch platform and get a serial for the other platform.

  • Serial number is not valid for this product

    I purchases MS creative suite 5 Student Licensing in 2011. Just rebuild my MAC. Entered code to re-install Photoshop. Prompt displays "The serial number is not alid for this product" What can I do?

    You will have to contact customer service by phone about this issue. Please have your proof of ownership ready. For instance an email or receipt.
    I hope you registered your product with Adobe as well.

  • After re-installing my serial number is not valid for this product

    My laptop crashed and I had to install PhE11 on another laptop. After installing it says: this serialnumber is not valid for this product.
    But it is the only serialnumber I have, and I did not type it wrong. Please help.

  • My serial number is not valid for this product.

    I am rebuilding my mac and need to reinstall photoshop cs6 extended.
    I am using the correct serial number and it's telling me that its valid but that a qualifying product can not be found on my computer. What am I doing wrong?
    Then when I go to enter it again, it lists CS3-CS5 extended (including CS6), but NOT CS6 EXTENDED. What is happening?

    It is looking for the product from which you upgraded (the qualifying product).  If you do not have it insdtalled you need to provide the serial number for the qualifying product

  • "This serial number is not valid for this product" at installation

    Downloaded Photoshop Elements 11. Entered (double-checked and even re-entered to no avail) serial number and got this message. Did the "chat" with Adobe and they couldn't help, told me to call Adobe tech Monday.
    I DID buy the program from Costco and it's a "special edition" but don't know why that should matter. The serial number is in the same place as the programs you buy anywhere else. Maybe it's not matching on the Adobe site for some reason?  Any help much appreciated. 

    That seems to be a sensible possibility. It sure would be nice if it said that it can't be downloaded/must be installed from enclosed discs right  on the box/in the enclosed materials though.  I will call tomorrow and find out. 
    The whole ridiculously long story is that I bought it because it was a great deal, and followed all the directions to load it from the installation disc onto a computer, which worked fine.   However, I want it on my new Macbook Air, which has no disc drive, so again followed directions to the letter for transferring it from one computer to the other. Seemed to work fine until the very last seconds when it said it couldn't complete the transfer. (Repeated process, same result.)   Then I called the techs where I bought the Macbook Air and they said the easiest solution for me would be to just download from Adobe by entering the serial number because really that is what I paid for in buying the software and that serial number is all that's needed, not the actual discs.  So that's what I did, and ended up here.   
    Thank you so much for your thoughts on this, really appreciate it. I'll let you know what happens when I call Adobe tomorrow so you can know if you were right!

  • My serial number is "not valid for subscription products", but of course it should be. how do I fix that?

    my serial number is "not valid for subscription products", but of course it should be. how do I fix that?

    Hello,
    general informations you will find there: https://www.adobe.com/account.html and this brandnew website:  Serial number and activation support.
    In case you bought your program from these firms like Amazon this "serial number" obtained from them is not a serial number, only a code with which you can request a serial number from Adobe.
    The following part, so I just see at least ceased to exist on my Adobe website, everything plays out in the link from above. I let it there as an info:
    Here you have to go through your "Adobe Store", and look for the button "Serial Number Request". Fill in the form and, after a while you will get a "real" serial number.
