Final Cut Studio 2 serial number is not accepted for downloading updates

Hi,
because of problems with AVCHD 720p50 import in FCP I wanted to upgrade from version 6.0.1 to 6.0.6.
First wired thing: Why is the software update not showing any updates for FCP?
There are 5!!! upgrades available, but I had to get a hint on the forum to even KNOW about it. There is no information about that easily findable on the FCP/FCS page, nor does the software update show any option.
Second - the problem:
I found the download page (using Google!) and downloaded FCP update 6.0.6...
...but I need 6.0.5 first.
Ok, Google again, found the page and have to type in may SN again. _*BUT this time the site won't accept it.*_ I tried it several times, double/tripple checked the SN, but ist keeps telling me that I'm using an invalid serial number.
It is really annoing at this point - does anybody know how I will get past this SN-input with my fully working FCS2 full version serial number?
Thanks

And I really think Apple should install one userfriendly update centre where every user can easily see and download updates to all Apple software (not just the latest version that is heavily promoted).
They already do. Under the Apple icon at the top left of your screen "Software Update".
I maintain a lot of clients FCP systems as part of my services. It doesn't matter if they are running FCP 3 or the latest FCS version, it all comes in, in the correct order. 100% every time.
Of course, if you move the apps into places where Software Update doesn't expect to find them, then you will get unpredictable results.
Here's why; When you install Apple software via the Installer app, it expects stuff to be in a certain location, based on the .pkg files in the directory at: Library/Receipts. If you move, rename or otherwise tamper with the files or their contents, it all goes pear shaped and you end up in the situation that you are currently experiencing.

Final Cut Studio Serial Number

Hi-
I am thinking of finally getting a Mac Pro, which will require upgrading Final Cut Studio and all that fun stuff.
In looking for my original FCS DVDs, I realize they were lost in a move last year. I can't find the install DVDs, the booklet or the serial numbers!!!
What info can I get off of my hard drive to be able to install FCS 3 on a new computer?

Give applecare a call and see what they can do for you.

Final Cut Studio Serial Number Conflict

Hi
I have a Macbook Pro and a Macpro connected to the same network. Both have different FCStudio with different serial numbers. During the last update on my Macpro I was prompted to enter the serial number. I entered the Macbookpro's serial by mistake. Now, every FCS app refuses to start when it finds the same serial on the other mac.
Can I change the serial after install?
Thanks

Hi, back again,
Sorry for not responding to the previous remarks.
Here is the case: I bought a license in the university shop, (surfspot.nl) with code.
In the past I was able to work with an installed version, but on my new computer I tried to reinstall without success. Luckily I was helped with the trial period, so that is why I didn't bother to get back to the reactions ( impolite indeed - sorry)
I have bought the Adobe CS6 Master Collection Combi Windows.
When I try to register the product under my (current) ADOBE id, it shows me the ancient Photoshop Elements product I registered way back in 2009, but when I try to add the CS6 Master Collection it shows that the product is already registered.
Did I register with a different email address?? I cannot think of one ( i tried a couple)
Any help would be welcome.
regards
Rob

Do i need to install the entire suite on the secound computer to access photoshop?…
No, installing Photoshop alone would do, that would also install Bridge on your computer. But you do have to download the whole-suite download to install Photoshop from it. The individual Photoshop download will never accept your suite serial number.
Incidentally, the "suite" concept is a fabrication of Adobe marketing and bean-counting types. The engineering teams are totally independent of each other, they are not only in different buildings but in different cities and states of the American Union, even in different countries.
The fact that they have little if any communication among them is highlighted by requests occasionally made in these forums by top Adobe engineers to let the other teams know when there are problems in one application that impact our workflow in another one.

I purchased Adobe photoshop elements II and Adobe premiere elements II. They are both on one disc. My computer crasded and I had to reload Windows. I only have one serial number and it only works with photoshop II. The same serial number will not work for

I purchased Adobe photoshop elements II and Adobe premiere elements II. They are both on one disc. My computer crasded and I had to reload Windows. I only have one serial number and it only works with photoshop II. The same serial number will not work for Premiere. I dont have any other serial numbers. What do I do???

Static_Unit
I am getting a bit concerned about what is happening in your situation. Yesterday you posted your question in at least two different forums, one of them being here in the Premiere Elements Forum.
Don't Have Serial Number for Premiere, Only Photoshop?
Wherever you posted, the reply was to contact Adobe via its Adobe Chat. It is the only one who can sort out this matter for you.
In the thread cited above I offered to help you with the difficulties that you were having visualizing the Adobe Chat in its web page. I was waiting for your follow up on that in the above thread. Instead, I find your same question in a new Adobe Premiere Elements Forum thread this afternoon with no refer the prior threads or prior recommendations given you.
I will also mention again...when you buy the Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements bundled in one packaging and with installation files for each on the same installation disc, each program has its own serial number. The Photoshop Elements serial number does not work for Premiere Elements and vice versa. The serial numbers are on labels on a box which houses the installation disc envelope(s). So, if you purchased both programs and found the Photoshop Elements serial number, then the Premiere Elements serial number should be in a label right underneath the label with the serial number for Photoshop Elements. I recall writing this in your yesterday's thread on this matter.
The moderator will no doubt be along shortly to close or delete this thread. So, just in case, please bookmark your yesterday's thread cited above so that we can continue this communication which is trying to help you.
Thanks.

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?

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.

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.

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

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.
