Homesite keeps asking for registration information

I have been using Homesite 5.5 for several years.  I was using it successfully in Windows 7, 64 bit.  I recently upgraded my desktop to Windows 8, 64 bit, and when I went to use Homesite for the first time since the upgrade, it asked for my registration information, including serial number, as if it hadn't been registered.  After I entered it, it asked for the serial number of the program I had upgraded from, which I also entered.  It then brought up the registration screen again, followed by the previous serial number screen, etc.  After going through this three or four times, I was finally able to get into the program, but after I closed the program and tried to open it again, the same thing happened.  Even though I have Dreamweaver (and the entire CS 5 Design Premium suite), I prefer to use Homesite, and want to find out how to get it functional again.  I assume this is something to do with the registry, but have no idea how to fix it.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hey Folks, I think I have found a solution - even if I cannot prove if it can be reproduced on any other machine:
After having the same Problem I tried several workarounds - and suddenly one crazy idea I had worked out:
Run Homesite under "compatibility mode"***
Enter registration information
Homesite will run - but most of the menu bars won't appear. Don't mind: compatibility mode was only necessary once to remember the registration information...
Close Homesite and switch back to normal mode
Homesite will start and stop asking for registration info...
This worked well on my Windows 8.1 Pro 64 Bit System - I hope, it works well with all your Systems too! Homesite is such a perfect simple editor and I'd badly miss it if it would not run on my system...
*** For compatibility mode:
Open the Homesite program folder in Explorer and look for Homesite.exe
Right click on homesite.exe --> properties
Select "compatibilty mode"*
* I am using a German Windows and am not quite sure, if "compatibility mode" is the correct translation into English. If not, look for something similar...
Good luck to all of you Homesite-Lovers!

    How to I get the card information to none so I can download my free apps it won't let me it keeps asking for card information

    Is it a new account ? If it is then unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store - you should be able to remove your card details after entering them

  • Pages keeps asking for registration code. Help!!

    I had downloaded a 30 day free trial of Pages before I actually bought it and now that I bought it, it keeps asking for a registration number but I don't have one since I bought it off the Mac app store. I cant save any documents or anything! Can someone help me???

    Have you deleted the old Pages copy you downloaded? If not, open Finder, go to Applications folder and do it. Also, delete the Pages copy you downloaded from the App Store. Then, open Terminal (in /Applications/Utilities) and type:
    sudo rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iWork.Pages.plist
    Finally, open the App Store, go to Purchases tab and download Pages again

  • I subscribed to Photoshop CC through the creative cloud but it keeps asking for registration

    I subscribed to Photoshop cc through the creative cloud which has been registered. Whenever I open Photoshop it asks for registration?

    Registering does no good and I had similar problems with the full Adobe package for a year and now it's still not working right with this photographers package. I've been watching for a fix for a long while now and nothing here ever helps. They assume you are not registered usually, but of course that's not the case. After all this time this problem remains for many people. After a while you just live with it and pray that you don't have an internet outage and miss a deadline.
    Pro software should not have a system this flawed.

  • Homesite keeps asking for serial number

    My Homesite 5.5 was working fine until a few weeks ago.  Now it continually asks for the serial number whenever I log in.  Even when providing it, the serial number screen will keep flashing until I cancel out.  Only after I provide the serial information (after canceling out) will the program open.  I am on Windows 7.  I wonder if one of their goofy upgrades has ruined my beloved program?

    Just started having this problem myself.
    I am thoroughly disgusted that Adobe has removed this wonderful little program from the update and support list.  I refuse to EVER use Dreamweaver.  If I wanted a program that bloated my code, inserted useless stuff without my knowledge, I'd use FrontPage.  Looks like I'll have to be trying out other programs.  This is really too bad.  It's a nice program.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.

  • Photoshop keeps asking for registration

    I registered Photoshop CS2 when I initially installed it. All seemed to go well. Since then every time I start the program, it tries to get me to register again. Anoying but solved by clicking on don't register. How can I make this go away?

    The same thing happened to me about a week ago only with Premiere Pro instead of photoshop. My computer got a virus a few weeeks ago so I had to fix that and then reinstall premiere (along with Windows XP and everything else) and that is when I got this problem. I ended up calling the adobe registration phone number on the activation page- and they walked me through it. I had to go to tinyurl.com and paste the registration info back into some folder on my c drive, I don't remember which one. I wish now that I wrote the steps down in case it happens again.
    hope this helps

  • Urgent help required - linked subreport keeps asking for parameter value

    Greetings,
    I have developed a report in the Crystal Reports bundled with Visual Studio 2005. The data is obtained from a stored procedure. One of the fields in the result set is named "Id".
    I have embedded a subreport in the details row of the main report. The subreport also gets its information from a stored procedure. This stored procedure has one parameter named "OpportunityId". This field is linked to the field named "Id" above. the subreport has been set to supress blank subreports.
    In the development environment and running the executable of the application on the development machine the report works perfectly. The subreport displays as it should and all is well.
    When I deploy the report onto user machines where they have the crystal runtime installed, the report keeps asking for a parameter value for the subreport.
    I cannot get this to stop happening.
    This report is urgently required. PLEASE could someone help me out here.
    I am at my wits end.
    I have attached a zipe file containing the following:
    - the two stored procedure
    - the rpt file
    - a sample report
    - a screen showing the report having just been generated
    Thanks in advance,

But i can not purchase any thing or get into the app store at all. I know my password is correct cause I tried an old one just to check. Different message came up ...wrong password. It  will not let me do any settings stuff or make any changes. I have tried every thing I can think of. Ive worked on this thing for 2 days now.

  • HT5035 Why, when trying to download a "free" app from iTunes after it say's, "this apple id hasn't been used with the iTunes store" does it keep asking for credit card info???

    This is so frustrating! I have an itunes store account, etc. I lost all my info when I had to "restore" my iphone.
    I wasn't able to do the "restore" until recently, gosh it was about 6mos or more ago when my iphone died...
    So, as I get older I am having memory problems and haven't been able to access my itunes account.
    Obviously when I did the "restore" on my iphone I lost all my info with it... So, wanting to use my iphone for
    music, games, etc. I had to create a new apple id, fine, but when I wanted to download a "free" app it says
    my apple id hasn't been used with itunes so it keeps asking for credit card info.
    I do not remember ever having to have a credit card before!
    I am so frustrated... First it was not being able to access my account then having to create a new one, fine!
    But now I can't download "free" content without credit card information!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! UGH!!!!!!!
    Please, can anyone help...?!?
    Sincerely,
    "Distressed"

    If you are within 14 days of purchase you can still return the iPhone and get the phone that suits your needs, however, I think you will find that no matter which phone you get the content provider will want to know how you are going to pay for future purchases. For Android phones it is Google, and they will certainly want to know.

  • HP Officejet pro 8500 won't print and keeps asking for a proxy setting. Help.

    HP Officejet pro 8500 won't print and keeps asking for a proxy setting. Help.

    Hi,
    Can you confirm that you have an Officejet 8500a or Officejet 8500? On the 8500a model, you can set the networks proxy address and port setting from the front panel of the printer (setup>Webservices setup>proxy). If you are unsure what your proxy settings are you'll need to contact your network admin. If your network uses a proxy users name and password for all devices, you need to enter this information along with the proxy address and port in the printers embedded web server. Type the products IP address into an internet brownser window (printer must be connected to the same network as PC). Select the network tab, and than look for the proxy settings option. Enter in the information and click apply. Once the networks proxy information has been correctly inputed into the embedded web server, try printing again. If unsuccessfully, you might try reinstalling the printer software after uninstalling it. Hope this helps!

    whole 1 week but then on Monday it start asking for password again which
    makes be thing that they is something in group policy which is causing
    this.

  • Q10 keeps asking for verification ID

    For some reason my blackberry keeps asking for a verification.
    I used the email for my blackberry what i always use, but it keeps saying that i can't use a different account for it.
    A reset didn't worked.
    And if i look at blackberry id on my phone, there is the same email what i use.
    I tried to do a factory reset, but it keeps asking for verifycation.
    Please save me....

    I want to be sure I understand. You write, "my blackberry keeps asking for a verification." Is the prompt asking for BlackBerry ID username and password? If it isn't BlackBerry ID that is asked for, then what?
    Is there something in particular that is prompting for the information, or does the prompt appear even when no apps have been launched? If not, are you perhaps running any headless apps?
    We're you able to complete the factory reset?
