Full license Adobe 'expired'..

I have a legal adobe CS6 Design and Web Premium license. But all of a sudden a screen popped up everytime I used an adobe programme (photoshop, reader). And now it says my trail version is expired and that I have to buy a licence if I want to continue using it. But I already have a licence!
It won't axcept my original number that came with the software and I cant use any of my programs anymore!

I bought Adobe Photshop Elements 12 full license download from Amazon in April. Suddenly Elements says trial expired. What to do?

I've used Elements at least once a week since I bought it. Today I tried to open it, and it's saying my trial has expired. I don't have a trial, I purchased the full license to download the product, and did so at Amazon. I don't want to download it again from Amazon because I understand I have 2 product downloads, and plan on using the 2nd download to my other computer. I have my purchase code and everything from Amazon. What to do? I really need to use Elements.

If you are having trouble with the download assistant you can try going without it by downloading thru the site linked below. In case there is some misunderstanding, you do not have to install anything more than the trial version. You use your serial number from the purchase to convert the trial to full usage.
Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site and have cookies enabled in your browser or else the download will not work properly.

Adobe Licenses have "expired" after installing Mavericks. Who do I kill first? :-)

I have been a very proud supporter of Macs for over 25 years, but right now I am about to throw this #$%^!! thing out the window and go buy a PC...
I recently loaded OS 10.9 Mavericks and now I can't use a single one of my Adobe products because the "licenses have expired."
I have searched the Adobe website and they tell me I should delete the FlexNet Publisher folder. Problem is, even after making invisible folders visible (which is ANOTHER bone I have with Apple these days - "You're too stupid to see all the folders; you might delete something important" Thanks for the vote of confidence, Apple!) I cannot locate a FlexNet ANYTHING. None of the online "fixes" are working.
So, how do I fix this!?! I am three days behind on a very large project that I have to have completed before Thanksgiving. I have lost all sense of humor over this and I just want this $%^!! thing fixed. NOW.

What version of Adobe software are you running?
I have Adobe Creative Suite 3 and it runs fine on Mavericks.
I found FlexNet. It is in /Library/Preferences

I own a flash CS6 full license ($$$), I feel cheated by Adobe for CC pricing.

I always bought full licensed versions of Adobe Flash, because that's my main source of income, so out of ethics towards Adobe. (It's one of the easiest packages to crack out there, but I have never done it)
Now, CC arrived, and I who spent hundreds of euros a few months ago, will now pay 19.99$ a month Just like anybody else. This is the way Adobe rewards faithful customers.
There is no consideration for users who always paid full licenses.
Flash CC single product price is exactly the same even if you paid hundreds of $ for a full license of Flash CS6.
Thumbs down, Adobe

I can install the same license adobe cc full on another machine?

I can install the same license adobe cc full on another machine?

The CC that you have has been activated only once, you can activate it two times, hence you can install&activate it on other computer.
You can also deactivate it from any of the installed machine if you want to activate on third machine.

Product license has expired on a full CS3 version

I am working on a vista pc with a Flash CS3 full version but
can not get access to device central when I try to acces it through
the welcome screen (Flash Mobile (Mobile).
It keeps on saying "Product license has expired" and it is
not.
Does anybody knows a solution to this?

Same problem here.
Working on a Mac. I have to re-install my Design Premium CS3 software since my hard disk got broken. I could save some information from the old one so I think there's some conflict with the old OS or something.
Any solution?

Why do we have to pay full license fee when upgrading to FMIS 4?

Just tried to order FMIS 4 but it's not possible to upgrade from FMSS 3.5 to FMIS 4. I know it was previously possible to upgrade from streaming editions to FMIS 3.5 and we paid only the upgrade fee (I think $3500) vs the full license fee ($4500). Now it doesn't appear as if we can upgrade from FMSS 3.5 to FMIS 4 and we have to buy a brand new license. Why is this so? If it's not technically possible to upgrade from FMSS 3.5 to FMIS 4 then why can't we at least get a discount for the money we paid on previous version licenses?
I have a few FMSS licenses and I'm choosing not going to upgrade to FMIS 4 because of this.
On a side note, it looks as if it's possible to upgrade FMSS 3.5 to FMIS 3.5 and then FMIS 3.5 to FMIS 4. Of course you pay for two upgrades then.
Can Adobe shed some light on this?

You can check it here: https://store2.adobe.com/cfusion/store/html/index.cfm?store=OLS-IE&event=displayProduct&ca tegoryPath=/Applications/FlashMediaInteractiveSvr&distributionMethod=UPGRADE
I would suggest contact the dealer/reseller from whom you got 3.5 and ask him/her the same.
if you still dont get the info do let me know.

Product License Has Expired (new install, no previous beta)

I'm trying to bring up a new computer and just installed CS3, which was an online upgrade to CS2. I'm getting the "Product License Had Expired" message, but I never had the beta installed (fix in Adobe Tech Note). In fact, this is only the second app I've installed (first was FCP2). I did a web search, but all 'fixes' I could find referred to having had a beta version installed earlier. Any ideas?

Routine maintenance is imperative.
I still advocate Repairing Permissions (with Apple's Disk Utility) before AND after any system update or upgrade, as well as before AND after installing any software that requires an installer that asks for your password.
I have seen software installations go sour because the installer did not find everything as and where it should be.
I have also seen software installations go bad because the installer did not clean up after itself properly and did not leave everything as and where it should be.
This is just my own personal opinion and practice based on my own observations. Others may disagree and that's OK. I can only base my routines and my advice to others on my own experience and conclusion. I don't pretend to know why others believe otherwise.
Repairing Permissions after the fact (i. e. not immediately before and after an install) seldom helps.; Try it anyway, though.
====
Additionally, if your machine does not run 24/7 so that it runs the daily, weekly and monthly Cron Scripts in the middle of the night as intended by Apple, run Cocktail (shareware) as well.
Cron Scripts are maintenance routines designed by Apple to run on a daily, weekly and monthly basis in the middle of the night.
If you don't run them, you WILL run into trouble, sooner rather than later.
Here's an excerpt from the Apple tech doc
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107388
Mac OS X performs background maintenance tasks at certain times if the computer is not in sleep mode. If your computer is shut down or in sleep at the designated times, the maintenance does not occur. In that case, you may want or need to run these manually.
Mac OS X periodically runs background tasks that, in part, remove system files that are no longer needed. This includes purging older information from log files or deleting certain temporary items. These tasks do not run if the computer is shut down or in sleep mode. If the tasks do not run, it is possible that certain log files (such as system.log) may become very large.
Also, from:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106978
The disk activity generated by find is a normal part of file system maintenance, used for tasks such as removing invisible temporary files that are used by the system. It is scheduled to occur early in the morning at 03:15 everyday, 04:30 on Saturdays, and 05:30 on the first day of each month.
NOTE:
There have been comments to the effect that Apple "fixed" this in 10.4.2 and later versions of the OS, but I have not been able to verify this to my satisfaction. The reference in the 10.4.2 release notes are far from explicit on this subject.

If you have DiskWarrior, run it regularly too.

Problem with "License is expired"

Hello guys,
I've installed the trial version of Photoshop. Now I bought the software and thus I put in the serial on the box.
Then I should agree to some License Agreements and so on and clicked "YES"... and the program suddenly was closed.
When I tried to reopen it, only a window popped up with "License is expired".
I already tried to run the LicenseRecovery by adobe.com (3 times) but it did not help.
Isnt there any file on my PC that saves the activation or so?
How can I fix the problem?

Thanks for your quick answers.
I meant the CD case by the word "box". Sorry, I forgot the proper word for it.
And it is 100% the right serial. The problem is really with my PC (the files that Adobe created on it).
This link: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/494/cpsid_49485.html
is pretty helpful. But unfortunately my OS is Vista and so I can't open my "Windows: \Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe PCD\pcd.db"
because I do not have access to it. Does anyone know how I can delete this file?
Edit: There is another problem: When I set the date to May 31, 2009 and open Photoshop, there are also just these License Agreements and when I agree, the window closes but nothing new opens.

License has expired message

I'm trying to download the trial version of Adobe
Dreamweaver. Everytime I open it, it says "License has expired". I
tried uninstall and reinstall a number of times, and I get the same
message. How can I fix this?
Thank you.
I have a mac osx and its dreamweaver CS4.
I hat the beta version, but I uninstalled that, too. I went
into Library/Appliationsupport/adobe and looked for a file called
adobe PCD because someone suggested that might work, no such file
exists on my computer.
Please help!
Thank you.

This error might be a result of using the beta. The beta was
available for a few months (well more than the 30 days). You may
have to contact Adobe support about this because it is not
something that people on the forums would be able to help you with
if there is a solution because it probably has to do with the Adobe
installer and how it records timings.

Downloaded design premium installed now getting license has expired message

i have downloaded cs4 in the past but this time i figured id try the design primium this time and i just got done downloading and installing it....(3hr process) and now i try to use it and it is giving me the message "Licensing for this product has expired" when i had cs4 it was on a different computer... please help if possable.

Dec9 and Mylenium have hit some of the "high points," and posed a couple of questions. If you do a reinstall, this ARTICLE will touch on some of the things to consider.
Good luck,
Hunt
PS - I think that it was aimed at Premiere Pro, but I seem to recall an Adobe Knowledgebase article on "license has expired." You might want to search this, and the PrPro forum, to see if my memory is correct, as that KB article might be useful - again, good luck.

I was going to buy monthly CC because I thought my CS6 license had expired and then it updated my creative suite 6 too. Do I now have 2 versions of everything? Do I need to have both?

It sounds like the Cloud managed to work its way into your system and take over the CS6 applications. If you are happy with CS6 and don't want to afford the Cloud your license is likely as good as ever. You just need to get the Cloud's claws out of your system.
See if the following helps get you there...
How do I prevent Creative Cloud from taking over my CS6 perpetual license?
https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1584746
Aside: I was trying to update one of my CS6 applications thru the Application Manager last week and I decided afterwards I would try to update the manager since it seemed to get stuck. I clicked a prompt without reading closely, turned away and returned to find the Application Manager was replaced with the Cloud Manager... which I guess is the latest update for it. A similar thing happened on my previous machine and I was not happy with it because my other machine was not spec'd for the Cloud and it ended up resetting all my preferences. So this time I immediately uninstalled it and decided I can live without it. If I need any updates I'll look for them myself.

Subscription popup yet I have a full license

Here is a new thing - Tday when opening PSCS6 for work I get a popup telling me about my photoshop trial and that I have 30 days remaining??? I have nad CS6 since it came out and paid in full for the upgrade from CS5.1 WTF??? I did receive an email about a survey and sweepstake they wanted me to enter but I couldn't get the login page to accept my username etc.. Does anyone have any idea why adobe thinks all of a sudden that I don't have a full license?? Thinsg are getting silly.
Here's a screenshot.

It isn't obvious, but you want to click License This Software and let it hook up to your Adobe ID so that it finds your license and lets you go. It should be fine after that. If it has trouble accepting your username, try entering your email address (the one you used in the Adobe Store) as your username.
thanks for this! Seems to have worked. Running a little slow ever since though, icluding a few feeezesand one force quit, something I have not had to do in a long time. will purge and reopen
