I am unable to open my trial

I have managed to download the 30 day free trial for the creative suite.  It is on my computer, but I cannot access it.  It is asking me to put in a serial number to validate the package.  Where do I get the serial number from?
Please help - Sarah

There should be an option to continue with the 30 day trial.  If you are not getting that option, is it possible you have already been thru thre trial period in the past?  If not, there is a chance it has terminated the trial period prematurely.  The following briefly explains how that can happen.

  • Unable to open 30day trial download on mac os x

    I am on a mac os x 10.4.9
    once downloaded I am unable to open the "FreeHandMX-en.sit.1"
    folder since my system does not recognize the extension ".sit"
    Any suggestions?

    There is a built in utility (called BOMAarchivehelper.app) in
    OSX that
    should handle it automatically. If not then install
    StuffitExpander,
    available at stuffit.com. By the way you must have downloaded
    it twice
    that is why it's named "...sit.1" and not "...sit"

  • Unable to open new trial .mac account

    Hi, I'm new to mac & not very computer savvy. I opened a trial .mac account 2 weeks ago. When I try to open the mail its very slow to download and just before its completed the computer freezes. I get glimpses of my mail but the page is incomplete.
    Help I'm ready to throw myself in the lake.

    Hi CGK.
    Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
    The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
    Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network, choose Network Port Configurations from the Show popup menu, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list. Try also turning OFF all the network port configurations except the one needed to connect to Internet and see whether that makes a difference — if it doesn’t, turn ON again the ones you want enabled.
    Finally, try launching Mail under the following conditions (you may need to force quit it first if it’s running) and post back with your observations:
    1. Holding the Shift key down until the main window appears. This tells Mail to not select any mailboxes or load any messages upon start up.
    2. With no Internet connection.

  • Unable to open LR trial version

    Hello,
    I have installed LR ( web-download from Adobe ). It seems the whole downloading and installing procedure went OK, but i cannot open LR.
    I use windows 7 professional 64 bit. When i open LR by dubbelclicking the icon, it tends ro open, but nothing comes on the screen. I see that there comes an icon in the task-window but thats all. When i move the cursor over this icon, i get a miniature previeuw off what could be on screen, but there is nothing further that i can do. I have uninstalled LR and installed it again 3 or 4 times over the last week, but it is always the same....
    Any idea's ?

    Hi folks,
    Many thanks to all of you who took time to help me out. I granded the correct answer to the one that exactly told me what to do. However i feel that others where on the same track, so i do not grand the 5 points answer.
    I am now left with 20 day's of trial, so that's what i am going to do...
    For your information, i normally only use 1 screen on my PC, but can use my TV-screen to look at my photo's, and did not realise that this could block LR.

  • Opening the trial version of lightroom

    I downloaded the trial version of lightroom for Mac OS 10.6 yesterday and it appeared to be working properly.  Today I am unable to open the trial version.  What is the rpblem?

    Did the program and computer shut down normally?  The first thing I would do is look for a file ending in .lock, usually found next to the catalog.  That file is created to keep more than one user from accessing the catalog at a time and possibly corrupting it.  If the program does not shut down normally for some reason, that .lock file is left behind and the program will think the catalog is in use my another user.  Delete the .lock file (but do not delete others like .journal or .lrcat) and all should be well.  If that is not it, come back and we will try to help you again.

  • Unable to open Aperture 2 because it is apparently in conflict with an old trial version 3. Any tips how to solve this?

    I am unable to open my Aperture2.
    The following warning message shows on top of the ususl opening window:
    Quote
    The libraryin "users/pedro/pictures/Aperture 3 Trial Library2.aplibrary" cannot be loaded because it is from newer version of Aperture.
    Unquote
    It looks like some kind of conflict with an old trial version 3, to which I never upgraded.
    Any tips to help me solving the issue?

    Do you need to run Aperture 2, or do you need to open the "Aperture 3 Trial Library2.aplibrary"?
    If you only want to run Aperture 2, then launch Aperture by double-clicking your regular Aperture 2 library; this should open Aperture on the correct library. In Aperture 3 you also simply could hold down the options-key while double-clicking the Aperture Applications icon in the Dock - probably this works in Aperture 2 as well,
    But if you need to open your Aperture 3 trial library with Aperture 2, because you converted your Aperture 2 library to Aperture 3 format; there is no easy way to do it. The best would be to find a backup of your library from the time before you converted it. If you do not have such a backup, then the easiest way would be to upgrade to Aperture 3 at this point.
    I do not know enough about the Aperture 2 library format to be able to tell you how to manually downgrade an Aperture 3 library to Aperture 2 format.

  • Unable to Open Project (CS4 - Trial Version)

    After futzing and cleaning up several projects, I am now unable to open them.  I may have changed the Video Preview from Microsoft AVI to I-Frame.  I get the following message when I attempt to open the affected projects:
    The project contained a sequence that could not be opened.  No sequence preview preset file or codec could be associated with this sequence type.
    Is there a way to fix this situation rather than having to start all over from scratch as I've already done for one project?
    Any tips, suggestions or errata would be most welcomed!

    For the learning of PrPro, I highly recommend the Adobe Classroom in a Book for PrPro CS4. It will step one through almost all aspects of NLE work with CS4, from the start of a Project to completion, with most necessary steps along the way.
    Now, for the Canon 5D/7D, I would strongly recommend that you look back in the forum a bit, as there have been several recent discussions on working with that footage effectively. Both Jeff Bellune and PaulineDC contributed to many of those threads. Before you have hours of footage, those threads will give you some workflow ideas.
    As for the VHS tapes, I highly recommend the Grass Valley/Canopus AVCD A-D bridges. Their AVCD-110 is a great unit, that interfaces between the VHS deck and the computer (FireWire here), and does a great job of digitizing the material. You will want to do this capture into DV-AVI Type II files w/ 48KHz 16-bit PCM/WAV audio. The AVCD-300 offers more time base corrections, and can pay the difference with just a few tapes vs the time to do corrections in the NLE. Both are well worth the investment. I would stay very clear of any Dazzle, or Pinnacle capture device (card, or box). Few ever get them to work correctly. There are some A-D cards out there, but their prices are about the same as the Canopus "boxes," and many produce files with OOS (Out Of Sync) issues. Also, some will NOT capture as DV-AVI Type II, so there are other problems, as well.
    Now, if you happen to have a video camera with pass-through capabilities, you can use that to digitize your VHS tapes. However, they are becoming rare, and are almost non-existence in Europe/UK, because of a higher VAT on them. Most models there remove that capability, even if the US version has it. Check first.
    Good luck,

  • Unable To Open Any Files In Photoshop CC

    Hi All,
    I am unable to open any file formats in my trial version of Photoshop CC. This problem seems to occur daily and the only way to resolve it is by restarting my laptop?
    File formats I am trying to open include a new PSD file, old PSD files and also jpg files, png files and pdf files.
    I am using an HP ProBook laptop but not sure of the model number.
    Any help to prevent this from happening would be greatly appreciated and if anyone needs anymore information don't hesitate to ask me?
    Thanks

    Allyson,
    Another welcome here.
    Along with the answers to Trevor's questions, how are you attempting to Open those Image files, i.e. Dbl-clicking on them in Windows Explorer, or from the File>Open menu in the Toolbar? If you are using the former, please try the latter. If you want to work from Windows Explorer, Rt-click on the file, and choose Open With, then Photoshop.
    Your comment about WMP being the default viewing program, seems to indicate that your File Associations have been changed, with WMP now set as the target program. If this is the case, then you will likely want to go to Folder Options (check for your specific version of Windows), and reset the File Associations for, say PSD, PSB, JPEG, etc., to point to Ps.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

    Adobe creative suite cs5: unable to drag objects on illustrator or indesign. unable to open files in photoshop, brush doesnt work in photoshop.
    In the past I uninstalled adobe creative suite cs5 from my laptop, used the adobe creative cloud cleanup tool, restarted and then reinstalled the programs and everything worked again for about a week. Now everything has gone back to the way it was again and this time the uninstalling and reinstalling isnt helping.

    Did you find a solution to this problem?
    Thanks

  • I am unable to launch Dreamweaver Trial version

    I am unable to launch Dreamweaver Trial version which I have just downloaded. I am running Mac OS X 10.6.8 and have also performed a software update. Can anyone advise? When launching the application, I get the following error: Adobe Dreamweaver CC 2014.1 cannot be opened because of a problem.  Check with the developer to make sure Adobe Dreamweaver CC 2014.1 works with this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and Mac OS X. 

    Dreamweaver 2014.1 requires OS X 10.7.5 or later to be installed.

  • Acrobat X Pro - Unable to open the document

    I'm having issues testing Acrobat X Pro trial version and Office 2010 on XP Pro SP3.  When trying to convert a Word document I consistently get the message - Unable to open the document.  Please check to see if you have read permission for the above file.  If I hit "Retry" a few times it will eventually convert the document.  If I initiate the conversion from within Word it seems to work fine. I've confirmed that permissions are not the problem.  It doesn't matter if the files are on the C: drive or a network location.  Most of my users use the combine so converting from within Word is not an option.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Sorry but no.  Big bummer.  Keeping me from going to Win7 and Office 2010 on many systems. Honestly,  I haven't looked to see if there are any patches avaliable since I orginally posted.
