Fireworks CS6 Serial Number issue

I've just purchased Fireworks CS6 and went to install it but it keeps telling me that the serial number that I have is valid but it cannot find a qualifying product on my computer and gives me the option to change to CS5,4,or 3. This was a download.

What you describe would indicate you have purchased/acquired an upgrade version, not a full version... it is failing to find the preceding version that qualifies you to activate the upgrade.  It is possibly then asking you to provide the serial number for the preceding version as an alternative to having it installed.

  • Unable to find CS6 serial number purchased via school website. [was: upsetting..]

    So, i've been a Cs6 user for about 2 years now purchased the software through my school website that goes through adobe. Everything went great... until just recently my computer was at it's worst and i unfortunately had to reset it to factory settings deleting my cs6 software and i thought i could just come and redownload it through my profile, but ironically they cannot find any records of my purchase and with my computer being cleared i do not have proof of purchase, and i watched horrified as the massive amounts of money to buy the programs goes down the toilet. I am in school, work 2 jobs to pay for my future wedding upcoming in january, expecting a baby in november, and in the process of purchasing a house. my school and work focus on my cs6 use and without it i'm at a strong disadvantage. So i do not have the money to pay for a new software and i'm definately not going to pay for monthly services for something i have already bought for ALOT of money already. I strongly suggest you either pay for the disc copy, or print your proof of purchase because as i had to learn the hard way you CANNOT trust this company to back you up with support after your software has been misplaced on your computer, and until they can find my purchase or assist my problem i will not be using their services as will my friends and family.

    Adobe will support you if they can find evidence that you've purchased the software. If they can't, they're at a bit of a disadvantage themselves.
    You can always re-download the software from Download CS6 products
    However, that will install as a 30 day time limited trial version. You'll need to enter your CS6 serial number to license it again on your computer.
    The serial number is what you need to find (then store safely  for future reference).
    purchased the software through my school website that goes through adobe.
    Have you tried going back through where you bought the software? You would have registered the software when you first bought it.

  • Adobe Illustrator CS6 serial number does not work on my new MAC. It does work on my old MAC.

    I have Adobe Illustrator CS6 installed on my new Mac but the serial number does not work.
    Do I need to remove the program on the old Mac first?

    Thanks for you reply
    Then I do not understand why the serial number does not work? I have tried to type it several times.

    You can install it on two computers simultaneously, so uninstalling is not needed if it's the only other installation.

  • Photoshop CS6 Serial Number Ineffective

    My Photoshop CS6 serial number won't work.  When entered I get a message telling me that two machines are in use and I must disconnect one of them.  If I can find a way to get around this fine, otherwise i will need another "workable" serial number and would like to know how to go about getting one if this is the case.

    You are only allowed to have the software activated on two machines at any given time.  The way around this is to deactivate one of the installations if you are aware of where these two existing installations are.
    If you are not aware of any other installations and/or this is a newly acquired serial number, then you need to contact Adobe Support by chat or by telephone.
    Here are some links to help make contact:

  • 2 issues - Invalid Serial Number issue & Lightroom 5 Trial vs full version folder hierarchy question

    Hello
    not sure if I should split these two questions...
    1 - Invalid Serial Number issue
    I'm helping out a friend with their large photo collection and they bought Lightroom 5 and received the serial number but when we add this to Lightroom it states that it's invalid - I tried leaving it until the following week (I visit them weekly) and it still refusing the number - when I went into their Adobe account and took a look at downloads the option to download the full version is greyed out (or an x - I'm not sat on their computer right now so can't double check) but it wouldn't allow me to do anything so we just had the trial version.
    anyone know what the issue is - shall I get them to contact Adobe to get them to take a look - I also had issues trying to find a customer support email address lol. (I seem to faffing with lots of websites/software/companies this week so getting a little frazzled!)
    2 - Lightroom 5 Trial vs full version folder hierarchy question
    This question is linked to the above i- I am wondering if the folders in Lightroom are different in the trial version vs the fully paid version.
    I had set up some greeting card templates and contact sheet layouts for my friend and tried to transfer them to her computer but whilst, LR 'sees' the folders it just doesn't acknowledge the templates - I tried it several ways but I've not had that issue before so will that sort itself when I get the serial number fixed?
    Thank you for any help or suggestions - hope you all have a good weekend :-)
    Lenny

    Hi Lenny, the two questions may be related but the trial is actually the same as the full version. I would suggest getting the serial number issue sorted out first. There have been known issues where a paid for product still shows up as a trial.There is not a lot the community can do. You need to contact Adobe directly using the link below. Use the dropdown menu for boxes (1) & (2) to scroll down the list and choose:
    1. Adobe Photoshop Lightroom
    2. Serial number issues or activating my product
    3. Click on the blue button: Still need help? Contact us – then click the button marked “chat now”
    It’s usually possible to start a live chat, if an Adobe agent is free, and often to get the problem fixed right away.

  • Can you use CS6 serial number for Lightroom 4?

    Hi everyone,
    I used to have CS6 and Lightroom downloaded on my computer but it fried and I had to replace it. On my new laptop, I tried downloading Lightroom and using my old serial number, but it didn't work. I was wondering if maybe it was Lightroom 4, and Adobe had released Lightroom 5 during the time when I didnt' have a computer. Can I use my CS6 serial if I download Lightroom 4?
    Thank you!

    Can I use my CS6 serial if I download Lightroom 4?
    No. The CS6 serial number is very specific: it only works for the product and operating system that it was purchased it for.
    If you had, for example, Photoshop CS6 for Windows, that CS6 serial number would not even work on a Mac.
    You'll need to locate your Lightroom 4 serial number.

  • How to check the InDesign cs6 serial number on my office iMac? I am no the one who download it.

    Hi,
    How to check the InDesign cs6 serial number on my office iMac? I am no the one who download it.
    My InDesign cs6 keeps crashing, so my boss ask me to reinstall back. But the problem is, how do I check the serial number? Someone else has already installed it, and we cant track who.
    Please help.
    Regards,

    >Someone else has already installed it, and we cant track who
    Not very good office/employee management... but if you DID know who, and you had his/her Adobe ID, you could go to https://www.adobe.com/account.html for a list of activated programs

  • CS4 Extended Serial Number issue

  • Trial mode and serial number issue with Creative Cloud

    Hello,
    I recently bought a CC membership but I seem to be getting the same trial mode/serial number window others have been receiving when trying to open a Creative Cloud app. I've already spoken with two Adobe techs without any resolves. I've uninstalled and reinstalled CC, I renamed an OOBE file that the tech suggested I do and looked into the Language preferences. I'm on an iMac 10.8.4.
    I'm really not technically minded but to me it seems like something continues to read my original CS6 trial I had previously. I've since uninstalled it but something remains perhaps My only thoughts at this point would be to make sure I have any recent files backed up then perhaps use Time Machine and revert back to before I installed CC then try installing again OR do the trial and hope once the 30 days are up it will read my paid account.
    I would really appriciate any feedback. I've used far too many excuses at work having missed deadlines due to this issue.
    Thank you

    Okay, I think I have it solved *fingers crossed* by following this:
    Mac:
    1. Please click on "Go" and navigate to /private/etc
    2. Open "hosts" file and check out for any entries for Adobe.com
    3. Remove the entries and save the file
    4.  try again launching any product from CS6
    Thanks
    - Nitin
    I did a backup of the hosts file and labelled it "hosts-backup" and put it on my desktop, then made another copy of the hosts file (since you can't alter the original). This time I removed ALL the Adobe entries and named the file "hosts", and saved that to the desktop. I then replaced the original hosts file with the altered saved version by dragging it into the etc folder.
    I started up Flash cc and it worked! I've since downloaded PS cc and it's opened as well. I just hope it continues to function...
