How do I find a serial number after re-formatting and reinstalling? System is claiming I have a trial when I've purchased almost $10,000 worth of Adobe software.

I purchased Production Premium which includes Photoshop CS5.1 Extended.  Had to reformat hard drive and reinstall software.  Photoshop will open only as a trial.  Says it needs serial number.  The serial number for Production Premium 5.0 and 5.5 don't work. There is no serial number for individual programs, just the entire suite.  Adobe won't provide phone support.  How am I supposed to get a serial number from a forum???

That's what I did.  I re-installed the entire suite.  Then opened Photoshop 5.1 Extended from Applications.  When I open, it says I'm opening a trial version unless I put in the correct serial number.  I've tried the serial number from the 5.0 suite and the 5.5 suite, both of which we purchased for over $5,000. Neither work and Adobe's telling me they won't provide phone support for anything other than Creative Cloud, and my back office at Adobe verifies I'm using the correct serial numbers.  It's appearing that Adobe's view now is if you aren't regularly renting the latest software from them, they just don't give a damn about your purchases, no matter how extensive. So now where do I go next if Adobe won't support?

    If you downloaded the standalone trial version of Lightroom, it will be necessary for you to uninstall that version. Then you will be able to install Lightroom through the creative cloud application manager. After you install Lightroom that way, just double-click on the catalog that you have already started.

    In the future, you need to get smarter about how you store your serial numbers; they must be backed up onto a different disk, just like your photos; or you may use some other storage method like paper and pencil. Just like photos, you need at least 2 copies in different locations.

  • How do I find the serial number of a stolen Ipod touch?

    Unfortunately, we lost the serial number of our touch - now it was stolen. How can we find the serial number - I thought it would be registered under my iTunes-account... Any ideas? Thanks.

    You can get the serial number in iTunes by heading to Edit->Preferences.  Then when the window comes up, click the Devices tab and hover your mouse over one the iPod's backup.  It should then display it's serial #.
    Or look in the places described here if at all possible.

  • How do I find the Serial number of a locked iphone?

    How do I find the Serial number of a locked iphone?

    Thanks but unfortunately I don't have any of those items to do that. Just have the phone. We are a third party support provider for Pharma companies and they send in their HW when users leave the company or are let go. This particular client deployed this device outside of our company at some point so we did not have the luxury of recording that info when deployed. We also cannot reach the original user to obtain the passcode. All we need is the serial number but need a way to access that on the phone without the passcode and without resetting or restoring the phones IOS.

  • How do I find the serial number for a lost ipad?

I have an itunes account....am I able to locate my serial number through itunes, and if so, could anyone talk me through how I go about doing that. Many thanks.

    Yes:
    Open iTunes on the computer you used to sync the iPad and select Preferences… from the iTunes menu. (In Windows, choose Edit > Preferences.)
    Select the Devices pane. Position the cursor over any of its backups. The iPad's serial number will appear in a popup window.
