Help. How do I deactivate my license if my CS4 is blocked?

I have just restored my Mac using Time Machine and of course Adobe CS4 no longer works (Problem 150:30). I have the key for the suite but I am supposed to delete the key from my system before I can install on "another" system. To delete the activation key I have to enter one of the programs but I can't because they are locked. How do I get around this catch 22?

  • How do I deactivate a license from a computer that crashed and can no longer be accessed?

    How do I deactivate a license from a computer that crashed and can no longer be accessed? I cannot use the software on my new computer because of too many users.

    Will you please provide a specific telephone number or chat link? I seem to be in a loop, that gets me back to the same place:
    I click on your above link ...
    Then Deactivation and sign-out problems
    Then Error "Activation limit reached" or "Sign in failed" | Adobe products
    Then Can't access your previous computer?
    Then "Don't have access to the previous computer on which you installed the application?Contact us. Be sure to have any purchase-related information ready."
    "Contact Us" takes me back to "Need help?", which eventually directs me to this forum in the first place.
    Thanks you.

  • Cs3 - How do I deactivate one license from a distant inactive computer?

    System configuration
    (1) Registered cs3 for mac with serial numbers with me
    (2) Mac G5 inactive with one cs3 license and original disks in a distant location
    (3) MacBook active with a 2nd license with me
    (4) MacBookPro
    I migrated the cs3 from (3) to (4). How do I deactivate the license (2) to activate it on (4)?
    Thanks

    Contact support to reset activations. And forget about 3) and 4). You need to install your software properly, not migrate it.

  • How do you deactivate a license when the hard drive crashes?

    How do you deactivate a license on a machine when the hard drive crashes?

    My backup is done with Shadow Protect, which as well as providing incremental backups - it adds any changes to the back up every 18 minutes - it also allows you to keep an image of your boot drive.  This image has t be accompanied with a bootable CD, so if your boot drive crashes, you can be up and running again in minutes.  I've never needed that feature, but I have lost two data drives in the last two years, and Shadow Protect came to the rescue both times.  One of thos drives was have a raid0 with many hundreds of hours of video editing.  It would have been a huge disaster to have lost that.

  • How do you deactivate a license on a failed computer?

    I have a computer that suffered a hardware failure that has a licensed copy of LabVIEW 8.6. I would like to deactivated that machine and install the software on another working machine. How do I do that?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hello Zia,
    You can use NI's License  Manager software to deactivate a license.
    Open License Manager, found in the National Instruments startup directory. 
    Expand the tree on the left hand side to expose the item you wish to deactivate.  
    Right click, and deactivate.  
    *edit*   In the case of hardware that has failed, you should be able to just go ahead and re-license on a new machine.  However it couldn't hurt to send an email to NI Support indicating that you have done so.

  • How do I deactivate a license on a dead computer?

    My computer motherboard is bad. How do I deactivate my photoshop License on this computer?

    You can't deactivate without running the program.  Your options are:
    Fit your hard drive to another computer, disconnect all other drives, and run it in Safe mode (because all the drivers will be wrong).  You might be able to open Photoshop to deactivate it (depending on what the screen resolution is in Safe Mode.
    Phone customer support. Explain your problem, and ask them to reset Activations.

  • How do I deactivate a license key for server 2012 r2 essentials

    I bought a retail version of server 2012 r2 essentials to upgrade my 2003. I found my software is not compatible with "essentials" and it
    is compatible with "Standard".  Now I am buying a retail standard edition. My buddy is interested in the "essentials" for his server.

    Strange... Server Essentials IS Server with some add ons.  What tells you it will not work?  Or is support for your program just balking?
    As for your bud... let him call MS if it does not activate and explain a hardware failure.  They will give him a new key... but it should not be necessary for the second install attempt.

    Hi,
    You can write UDFs in java in Graphical mapping to enhance your XI Graphical mapping functionality
    The steps for doing it would be:
    1. Click on Create New function Button found on Bottom left corner on your XI Mapping window.
    2. Write your java code.
    3. Run the Mapping Test as usual.
    >>The module that is given here ...where and how it is used.
    The adapters in the Adapter Framework convert XI messages to the protocols of connected external systems and the other way around. When doing so, some
    functionality might need to be added specific to a situation which is possible with the use of custom modules.
    Typical example would be validation of file content when using a File Adapter or modification of the message payload to a common content structure which is not supported by any of the standard SAP modules.
    An Adapter module is developed as an Enterprise Java Bean and is called locally by the Adapter.
    An example on modules :

  • How do I deactivate CS2 Premium software when I no longer have computer?

    How can I deactivate the license for CS2 Premium software for a computer I no longer have, so I can install on my current computer?

    Deactivation is no longer available for CS2 or earlier since Adobe decommissioned the CS2 activation server a couple of years ago.
    Error: Activation Server Unavailable | CS2, Acrobat 7, Audition 3
    On your new computer, download the new non-activation CS2 from the above link and enter the new serial number provided at that link. Your existing CS2 serial number will no longer work.
    PS This will only work for Windows. CS2 will not install or run on modern Macs since the PowerPC code it is written in is incompatible with Intel processors.

  • How can I deactivate CC on a dead computer?

    I had CC downloaded on two machines: my desktop and laptop. My desktop died a few days ago and now I'm setting up my new desktop, including downloading CC, but I can't. My guess is because the license is only good for two machines, but how do I deactivate a license on a computer I can no longer start up?
    Thanks!

    Unfortunately, we will not be able to deactivate on the desktop however you can go ahead and install and activate product on a third machine.
    Once you activate it will ask you to Deactivate from the other machines and that's how you can deactivate.

    how do i deactivate the auto updation on my iphone 4,i want to use only watsapp but when i am turning on my celleular data all apps starts updating theirself,please help me.I am not using any internet pack other than watsapp.

    iPhone do not do automatic update. You have to manually trigger the updates.
    If your Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Automatic Downloads > Music, Apps, Books are ON then when you purchase any new content/item with any devices/computer iTunes, it will automatically download. Switch it OFF if you do not want that to happen.
