Getting invalid serial number during installation of IllustratorCS4

Purchased a "new unopened" Illustrator CS4 package. Tried installing and serial number on CD jacket was invalid. Adobe CS also says that it is an invalid number. Waiting for seller to give me a valid serial number. Online searches have turned up various sites that give a "valid" serial number. Are these legit?

no.

  • Invalid serial number during first install

    Just wrapped off the seal on the OS X SL Server i just got.
    But when i come to the part of the installation where I´m supposed to enter the serial that came in the box, i get the following message:
    "Invalid serial number entered
    Setup requires a valid serial number. The serial number has the format XSVR-106-x-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-x!
    I´ve gone over the serial at least 20 times now, so I´m preeeetty sure it´s correct.
    Anyone else experienced this? In that case, what did you do to solve it?
    Best regards

    What kind of server are you installing on?
    I've seen reports that having 2 Ethernet connections active during this phase of the installation causing trouble with serial numbers.
    Maybe you could disconnect one Ethernet cable and try again?

  • Invalid Serial number during upgrade from 10.4.11 to 10.5

    I upgraded our Xserve from 10.4.11 to 10.5 and when it first boots after the install, I get to the enter serial number screen. At this point the 10.5 serial number I enter goes through validating and then says invalid serial number format. I have several serial numbers I have tried so I know that a wrong serial is not the cause. I have tried connecting from another computer with server admin and changing the serial number that way, which when, I do shows the 10.4 serial number but then says invalid serial when entering the 10.5 serial. It seems like it is confused on what the serial number or format should be. Is there a way to manually install a serial number or at least get past it so I can then install the most recent update and hope that fixes this issue? I see there were some similar issues with the 10.5.8 update but I think the install dvd is only 10.5 or 10.5.1 maybe.

    Well I finally got past it by ssh'ing into the server while it was at the serial number page and issuing it this command and specifying my serial number
    /System/Library/ServerSetup/serversetup -setServerSerialNumber xsvr-xxx-xxx-x-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-x
    I then rebooted the server and it came back to the same enter serial number screen but upon entering it one more time, it validated and is happy now.

  • Keeps telling me that I have an invalid Serial Number during update

    Trying to update and download Acrobat 8.0 to 8.1.0 and keeps telling me have invalid serial number when software is active and working on my computer.

    Assuming AA 8 is installed and working, you have to download the updates from ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobat/win/.

  • Embed serial number during installation

    Our University just purchased a site license for CS5 and I need to setup a deployment package for our software distribution system. I would like for our end-users to have the same GUI interface as an individual installation so I do not want to use Adobe Application Manager to create this package. Does anyone know if it is possible to start the regular CS5 installation (via set-up.exe) with the serial number already embedded somewhere in a file? (XML, etc).
    Thanks,
    Sundiata

    Hi,
    You can push the setup on your network and then install it as trial. You can use SCCM or Activity Directory to do so. Follow the link for the "Adobe Provisioning Toolkit Enterprise Edition" to serialize through command line.

  • I cannot register photoshop cs4?!  Getting invalid serial number message and I've owned this product since 2010.  Also shows in my products on the adobe website.

    Title says it all, and I can actually speak to a person at Adobe to get this cleared up!  I unregistered the photoshop before uninstalling Web premium.

    There is only that one number as far as I know. You need to get someone there to help  Adobe Support is far from what it should be.  Having to use Adobe support has never been easy or pleasant.  However they have help me activate Photoshop after a couple disk crashes for there is no way for users to deactivate versions of Photoshop activated on the crashed disk.
    I notice your serial is for the Web Premium suite not just Photoshop CS4.  Are you installing the suite or just Photoshop CS4 I have only installed Photoshop myself.  I do not know if there is a difference in installer between Stand alone Photoshop CS4 the Suite Photoshop CS4.
    There surly is a difference in size of the downloads,
