How to update a VERY old serial number?

I bought Adobe Illustrator 5.0 around 20 years ago, and the serial number of course does not match the modern versions. I paid for this program, and I can not get an updated serial number to buy an upgrade? ((( As I have not been a client for over 20 years. Any help?

A version that old does not qualify for an upgrade any longer.  You will need to either purchase a new version at full price or buy a subscription to the Creative Cloud.

  • How do I retrieve an old serial number to upgrade Lightroom?

    I upgraded my Lightroom and can no longer find my old serial number. If I go under my account, it isn't there either. Wondering how I get a number.

    If the old version is still instaled, it is listed in Help/System Info.

  • How do i retrieve an old serial number?

    I bought Adobe Photoshop CS 5 student edition for mac about a year ago from Amazon. I downloaded and installed it without problems then but now have a new mac and need to get hold of the serial number again to put it on my new mac. How do I find it - it's not in my email inbox?

    You can refer following link to recover SN from your Adobe account:

    Otherwise launch the installed licensed copy of Photoshop and select Help>Product Registration. This will register the serial number with your Adobe ID.

  • TS2565 when updated to 9.1.7 from 9. I need new serial and the old serial number doesn't work. How can i solve this?

    when updated to 9.1.7 from 9. I need new serial and the old serial number doesn't work. How can i solve this?

    There was no new serial needed to update from Logic 9 to 9.1.7
    If your Logic 9 was an upgrade from Logic 8 it may be asking you for your original Logic 8 Full serial first and then your Logic 9 Upgrade serial...
    Otherwise, it's best to call Apple directly and get them to help you...

  • I need to install photoshop cs4 extended from a disk to a new computer because my old computer had a hard drive crash. There is no serial number on the back of the case.  How can I obtain a usable serial number?

    I have to install Photoshop CS4 extended on a new computer from a disk because my old computer had a hard drive crash.  There is no serial number on the back of the case.  How can I obtain a usable serial number?

    Find your serial number quickly
    You can activate software without following up and registering it... at least that was the case in the past.  The serial number is normally located on the disc case or a box inside the main box.  If you did not purchase the disc from Adobe then it is possible you would have dealt with a redemption code, in which case it would have been up to you to keep a record of the serial number, especially if you did not follow up and register the software.

  • Trying to install cs5.5 onto new pc, have old serial number...

    trying to install cs5.5 onto new pc, have old serial number... but can not find how I even start process. Yes, it is installed on a MAC, where I still want access.

    You cannot install your Mac license on a PC. Serial numbers are platform specific. There's no way around that.

  • The upgrade version will not accept my 'old' serial number

    The upgrade version will not accept my 'old' serial number? 

    I have a CS3 DesignPremium.
    I have asked Adope if it was possible to update from this to CS5.5 Design Premium. The answer was, that it was ok for a price round 100 €.
    I bought it and under installation it wanted first the new serial number and next the 'old number' (because the old CS was not installed).
    The new one is not installed any where els.
    Im am working on a MacBook Pro.
    The number not accepted is the old CS3 number.

  • Aperture system ID - recovering the old serial number

    hi
    apologies if this was asked again but several searches later im still confused.com
    i recently had my old MBP stolen - however before this happened, i backed the whole drive to an external disk
    i cant find my aperture installation cd, so i downloaded a Trial Version of Aperture and used a trial serial number
    i then decided to use what some people here suggested and copy my OLD aperture system ID file to my new library/application support/proapps folder (and delete the trial version of the file with the trial serial number)
    however, aperture wont recognise my old serial number
    any thoughts on what i should do
    is there a way to read the old serial number from the aperture system id file? its all messy
    thnx

    Hi Adam,
    I've searched my Mac for "ProAppsSystemID" and the search returns no items. Would you know how to locate it? Also, where is "/temp"?
    Every time we fire it up, it asks for the latest serial number... and then for the previous "upgrade" serial numbers

  • Upgrade from PageMaker to InDesign. What version is best and will old serial number work?

    I'd like to upgrade from PageMaker 6.5 to InDesign. Should I wait for InDesign C S5. Will InDesign C S5 support PageMaker? Or should I upgrade to InDesign C S4? And if I have an old serial number for PageMaker 6.5, how can I complete the upgrade? I understand the older PageMaker serial numbers are no longer recognized.

    I understand that Adobe is already selling InDesign CS5 and therefore you would have no choice if you want to upgrade. I would think that the easiest way of finding if your PM serial number applies for an upgrade is to try buying an upgrade. You don't need to complete the purchase if you don't want to.

  • How to check the InDesign cs6 serial number on my office iMac? I am no the one who download it.

    Hi,
    How to check the InDesign cs6 serial number on my office iMac? I am no the one who download it.
    My InDesign cs6 keeps crashing, so my boss ask me to reinstall back. But the problem is, how do I check the serial number? Someone else has already installed it, and we cant track who.
    Please help.
    Regards,
    Cita

    >Someone else has already installed it, and we cant track who
    Not very good office/employee management... but if you DID know who, and you had his/her Adobe ID, you could go to https://www.adobe.com/account.html for a list of activated programs

  • My computer was stolen, how can I track down a serial number?

    Hi All-
    I'm in need of some assistance.  My Mac was stolen during an apartment burglary.  It was a gift from a family member who doesn't have any type of receipt.  I apparently didn't register my Mac either, my iPad and iPod yes, my stolen laptop of course not.  My insurance company is requesting the serial number or some sort of proof of ownership.  Any ideas how I can track down the serial number? 
    Any suggestions would be appreciated!
    Thank you!

    Have the family member who made the gift contact the place of purchase if possible. Most business records of computer sales have info like serial numbers
