I am reinstalling Lightroom 5 and serial number entered is invalid
My system was rebuilt and getting back to the install disk for Lightroom 5.0 where I enter my serial number associated with the install disk and the system will not continue indicating the serial number is invalid. I have entered it several times to make sure it was entered properly to no avail.
Richfroisness are you utilizing the serial number listed under your account at http://www.adobe.com/. You can find more details on how to locate your serial number at Find your serial number quickly - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html.
If so are you installing from the installation disk or did you download a fresh copy of the installation files? Finally what operating system are you using?

Reinstall Lightroom with a serial number?
I had to refresh my pc which made me have to reinstall Lightroom 5. I was told to install as a trial, then enter my serial number. I tried that and it wouldn't accept my serial number. What do I do?
As dj_paige says you probably have the trial of the Creative Cloud version installed (this version cannot be activated with the perpetual license key). Uninstall the one presently on your computer this will not affect your existing catalog, preferences and other personal files. Then download LR 5.6 from the link below, install and insert your serial number and it should work fine.

Trying to reinstall logic pro and serial number is coming up invalid
I had to reformat my hard drive and I'm trying to reinstall logic pro 9 but the serial munger is coming up as invalid.
If you bought the upgrade DVD version of Logic Studio 2.0 originally.. (LP8 to LP9) then read the dialog boxes carefully as it will ask you to enter the LP8 Full serial as well as the LP9 upgrade serial....
Otherwise, if you are sure you are entering the Full version serial of LP9 correctly.... (Its easy to mistake zeros for O's for example)

I bought lightroom 5 last december, I install on my old PC. Today I buy a Mac and I try to reinstall my lightroom with the serial number I have. It's said wrong number can I have a new number?
This is a user to user forum so there is no one here to provide you with a new serial number or to reset your serial number.
It is possible that you are trying to activate an installation of the Creative Cloud version of Lightroom. It is not possible to do so with your License Key. You need to uninstall the existing version that you have installed. This will not interfere with your catalog, Preferences or personal files, it will just remove the application.
Then download the perpetual license from the link below. Install and it should accept your license key just fine.

I started a trial of creative cloud and downloaded lightroom. I decided to buy lightroom on amazon because I liked it. Now when I try to license the trial version of lightroom with the serial number, it says it's invalid. Why?
The standalone version and the CC version are both the same exact program, but the licensing is completely different. It will be necessary for you to uninstall the creative cloud trial version and then install the one you purchased from Amazon. After you install, you will be able to open the same catalog and continue from where you were.

I would like to purchase the license and serial number for Lightroom 4
I would like to purchase the license and serial number for Lightroom 4 however even though you can download it from this site, there is no option to buy. Unfortunately I can't upgrade my computer's operating system beyond OSX 10.6.8 even though it's an intel duo so there's no point me getting Lightroom 5.
There doesn't seem to be an option to contact anyone at Adobe to see if there is an option to buy. Each time I attempt to do so I am directed to the forum, so it looks like my only option may be to use another app. Maybe capture one's the way forwardAdobe does not sell Lightroom 4 any longer.

I bought a new Macbook Pro 13 inch in December 2011 and I bought the Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Design Premium shortly after and installed it on the computer. The other day my friend spilled his drink on my computer and it is now going to cost me $800 to get it fixed so I am considering getting a new one instead of getting mine fixed I'm not sure if the memory is still ok or not either. It didn't get that wet and Apple told me it is more than likely ok but there is no guarantee that they are going to keep the memory when they fix it. So I was wondering if I get a new one if I can install the Suite on the new one I still have the product key and serial number for the Suite. Or if I decide to get mine fixed and the memory is swept, then can I reinstall it on mine after it is fixed? If anyone can help me it would be greatly appreciated!!! Thank You
deactivate your installation on your old computer (help>deactivate).

I am having trouble getting my Lightroom 5.0 upgrade to accept my Lightroom 4.4 serial number. I recently installed Windows 8, 64 bit on a second solid state HD on my computer (had a virus problem for which I had to format C and reinstall everything). The new ss HD is drive C and my operating system and my programs are all installed there. All my documents and files are now stored on my original, reformatted drive, which is now drive D. I was using Windows 7, 64 bit. Could all this be the reason my serial number is not being recognized? PHH
Hi 48phh,
Yes Lightroom 5 takes the Serial Number of each previous version and you can do the Upgrade from any 1, 2 3, or 4 version of Lightroom,but somethig different for the Upgrade from the Mac App Store ... see how here: http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/upgrade-mac-app-version-lightroom.html
you installed Windows 8 and installing only the operating system, but keeping all the app certainly and during the operation something can be lost, especially if you run Clean after installing the system by deleting the folder containing the old system, it's better to wait to do so.
However, no problem, because to do the 'Upgrade all you need is the old serial number and don't need Lightroom4 to be installed on your machine ...
