How do I reinstall CS4, as my serial number from CDs (and my Adobe account) is rejected?

I have CS4 Production Premium.  My PC computer died and I have to reinstall CS4 on a new computer.  I have the serial number on the CD packet (confirmed on my Adobe Account using my Adobe ID), but the program rejects this with a red cross. I have loaded the program but obviously it is merely on Trial status at this stage.  I should be very grateful to receive help in activating this product.

  • My iPod is cracked and chipped, and the left side does not work, so how am I supposed to get my serial number from my iPod since I cannot unlock it?

    Hello.
    My iPod was knocked out of my hand at school and it cracked and chipped really bad. It worked fine, until this moning. The entire left side of my screen does not work at all. I cannot rewind songs, unlock my device, or enter my password.
    How am I going to get my serial number now?
    It is practically impossible.
    And how much would it cost for it to be fixed?
    It is a 4th gen black iPod touch.

  • How do I reinstall Aperture with only serial number?

    I had to have a new hard drive installed and due to software corruption on my old drive I had to erase any software.  My photo library was in Aperture and I can not access any of my images.  I upgraded from a free trial and only have a serial number for version 3.2.4.  How do I reinstall Aperture without having to repurchase the download?  Thank you for any advice!

    Try if this download link for the trial version still works: if yes, you can install Aperture 3 from this link, then unlock it with your serial number:
    http://appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite.net/content.info.apple.com/Aperture/061-8328 .20101020.AprE3/ApertureTrial3.1.dmg
    Then use software update to upgrade to 3.3.
    Keep a copy of the Trial installer, just in case you ever need to reinstall.

  • How to get MAC address list and HDD serial number from Windows and MAC machine?

    Hi,
    I'm developing a AIR application. I'm implementing the product key mechanishm. I need to identify the users' machines uniquely. I chose MAC address would be a better way. But a computer has list of MAC addresses including LAN card and Wi-Fi card addresses. So, I need to get the list of available MAC addresses from the computer and the Hard Disk Drive's serial number. HDD serial number would be helpful to cross verify the identity.
    I'm able to get the MAC address using NetworkInfo class. But I need to get a list of available MAC addresses and HDD serial number.
    Is there any classess to accomplish this task?
    Thanks in advance.

    See if this link can be of a little use to you.

  • I am trying to instal adobe photoshop and i don't have the box with the serial number any more and I didn't register

    I want to instal adobe photoshop 6.0 onto my computer and I dont have the serial number from the box

    Since all Adobe software is downloadable as a free trial, the Serial Number is what you are purchasing, and it identifies itself with YOU (IF you register your purchase, that is).
    Moral of the story: "always keep your original software materials."

  • I need my serial number from my cs6 download

    If you have registered your product on Adobe.com, or if you downloaded your product from Adobe, your serial number is stored in your Adobe account.
    Have you tried there??

  • Where do I go to find my serial number from a download?

    I upgraded my computer and now when I logged into Photoshop Elements it is asking for the serial number.  I purchased the software several years ago via download and can't find serial number.

    You may have registered your original purchase in which case the serial number should be in your Adobe account. You can check it when logged-in with the Adobe ID used to make the purchase. You can start from this web page by clicking the red logo (near top left)
    Then click on the button “Manage Account”
    Browse to your purchase history and you should see the 24 digit serial number which will commence 1057
    N.B. never post your serial number on public forums – keep it private.

  • CS4 suite serial number does not work for Adobe Acrobat Pro

    Hello,
    I am looking for a solution for the serial number issue I am having with Adobe Acrobat Pro. All of other programs within the suite open fine, but when I open Adobe Acrobat Pro it asks for a serial number. When I type in the serial number, I am given a red "X".
    I have called customer support, but they haven't been able to give me any information that will resolve my issue (uninstalled 4 times now). I have Vista and have looked online and on the Adobe website to find a solution. It looks like others are having the same issue from what I can tell while searching. I have run the script too and then reinstalled, but still nothing.

    After some stupid upgrade in my computer (who knows as Microsoft is always doing something), my Acrobat 9 in CS4 stopped working. The error message said to uninstall and reinstall Acrobat. So I went through the control panel and uninstalled it. I then loaded the CD and reinstalled. However the reinstall would NOT accept the orginal serial number. I called Adobe and they gave me a different serial number. Before I let the guy nof the line I tried the  number and it did NOT work! So then he gave me another number which  asked for the previous verison- apparently it was an upgrade number. Luckily I had my old CS3 software and I gave it that number and then it accepted the install. The program now works BUT there is no longer any ADD/REMOVE choice in the CS4 suite in the control panel. There is no way to automatically remove this program anymore! What a mess.
    After reading some of the installation problems others have had and no solutions, I count myself lucky! At least I was able to get the program running.
    Therefore my advise on the serial number problem is to get Adobe on the phonen and get them to give you a number that will work, and don't hang up until you know the program is working!
    If anyone knows how to add the Acrobat to the the add/remove functions in the control panel, please let me know!

  • Hi. I've changed my hard drive on my macbook pro and wanted to reinstall logic pro but although I took the serial number from the "about" box it rejects it when I try to reinstall. It was an upgrade to Logic 8 originally. What can I do? Urgent!

    Hello. I have installed a new hard drive on my Macbook Pro with OSX Tiger. I tried to reinstall Logic 8 Pro but it refuses the serial number when I try to install it. I took the serial number from the "About" box when Logic was still installed but no good. The software was originally an upgrade, and I don't think I have the disks for the previous version. What do I do? This is important because I only use the computer for music. Thank you.

    There's actually an even simpler solution that doesn't include buying a new version of Logic.  He can use his original version easily.  Of course, that depends if the OP knows how to effectively use his computer though...

  • CS4 not accepting serial number

    CS4 asking for serial number, but it's not recognizing it.  Any suggestions?

    Ok will please try running the available uninstallers available in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder.  Once this is done please also run the CC Cleaner Tool to ensure complete removal. 
    If your serial number is being listed as being invalid, and you verified that it is valid under your account at http://www.adobe.com/, then it is likely the licensing files on your computer have become corrupted or you do not currently have sufficient file permissions to modify them.
    Once you have completed these steps then please try reinstalling CS4 to your external drive again.
    Btw I would recommend making sufficient space on your internal hard drive to store CS4.  Otherwise you will need to have both your laptop and your external hard drive anytime you wish to run Creative Suite 4.
