I can't remember / find my serial number!

Hi there,
I bought CS5 Design Premium (for Students and Teachers) at the end of 2010 and only loaded it onto one computer. Now, 4 years later, I want to load it on my new computer. The problem: I used an email address to create my Adobe ID that I no longer have access to. I can't even remember the password!
I have the case number written down from when I originally requested my serial number and another 9 digit number (it must be needed with the case number) - would I be able to get my serial number from Adobe support? (I am currently sitting on the chat waiting for an answer but it's taking a while and I was wondering if some kind soul could give me advice )
Thank you!

if it's still installed on your old (pc) computer, you can recover the serial number using belarc advisor, Belarc Advisor - Free Personal PC Audit, for software, hardware and security configuration information on your computer.…

I would like na interactive discussion with somoeone who can help me find a serial number for my Photoshop Elements 10 I recently bought via ebay. The system tells me the redemption coade is not active. Help!!

Can someone help me to find a serial number for my Photoshop Elements 10 software, recently bought (as new) via e-bay. I have an adobe ID, have enterred the redemption code and been informed it is not "active" How do I proceed to install my softwared from the CDs? The plastic "label" over the code on the back of the box had not been tampered with.

HT4061 I can't use my ipad mini. All buttons are frozen including the on and off, can't even find the serial number, can't see it on the back, can't find it under settings because no buttons will work. Has anyone encountered a similar problem?

My ipad mini is frozen and won't allow me to use any buttons. I can't access settings to get the serial number for Apple Support and I can't read the serial number from the back. It's too small and shadowy. There is a message that reads "ICloud Backup--This ipad hasn't been backed up in 2 weeks. Back ups happen when this ipad is plugged in,locked, and connected to Wi-Fi."
It won't allow me to shut if off using the on and off button. I stuck a paper clip into the tiny reset button, but nothing happens.
Has anyone else had this problem? Please help,

This is the most common "fix" when devices are behaving strangely. It only takes a minute and there's no risk of lost data. This is the reason you'll see this fix being suggested so often.

How can I find the serial number from CS4 for my mac? I remembered it being on the box, but now I can't find it, and they website I thought to have registered it to doesn't recognize the e-mail I would have used then I got it.

I don't know if this is the right place to ask this, but the website recommend I ask here. I bought the CS4 when I bought my macbook pro in when I was in college. I remember there being 2 serial numbers, so I could install to one other computer. That macbook pro finally died, and now I have a new mac which I am trying to re-install the creative suite on, only I can't find the serial number. The two stickers on the back of the CS4 box (which i thought were the serial numbers) don't look like that they're asking for, and the website listed on the inside of the box for me to register to doesn't recognize my e-mail (which hasn't changed since buying CS4). Any idea where I could find the serial number?

I can't find my serial number to reinstall my photoshop. Is there anyway I can still install it?

I had some issues on my mac so everything was reformatted loosing everything. Now I'm trying to reinstall my photoshop extended and I can't because I don't recall having a serial number. All I have is a product code. I've had this program for about 3 years so I don't remember if I was issued one when I applied for the student/teacher version. Can anyone help?

The best way is to contact Adobe by E-mail through which you have registered the account or contact the seller.

How do i find out serial number of my Macbook that is stolen so it can be reported to law enforcement ?

How do i find out serial number of my Macbook that is stolen so it can be reported to law enforcement ?

Did you have the "Find my Device" enabled on your AirBook? Look at this web page and maybe you remember setting it up and if you did you could track it and/or disable it the first time it's connected to the internet:
https://www.apple.com/icloud/find-my-iphone.html
Report as soon as possible and also make up flier and hand out to all the local pawn shops in case the theif tries to pawn it or sell it. Also keep you eyes out for craigslist ipad sales for AirBooks - you never know how silly some people and try to sell a stolen item that you can prove is yours.
Good luck...

I can't find the serial number for my CS5 product. How can I find it?

I am a teacher and purchased this product several years ago. I recently had to get a new computer and when I tried to reinstall it wouldn't let me as it says I need the serial number. Given that I ordered this so long ago, I no longer have the serial number. Other than ordering a new version (which I prefer NOT to do) what can I do about this?

The serial number was included in the box ARD came in; the Apple Store will not have a record of it. If you've lost the serial number, you'll need to purchase a new copy of ARD, probably a good idea anyway since 2.2 won't run on any version of Mac OS X since, if memory serves, 10.4. It's a lot cheaper through the Mac App Store than it was back when you first purchased.

Is there a way to find the serial number in these files so that I can reinstall the full version?

I had to restore from backup to a new hard drive, and only have part of my Adobe Photoshop installation. Is there a way to find the serial number in these files so that I can reinstall the full version? I have only part of the documentation so this is the best way I see to get the full version back.

Hello brad,
you did purchase your product from these firms like Amazon, so you didn't get a serial number, only a code with which you can request a serial number from Adobe. Please have a look at http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html. (Start here: How did you purchase your product?)
The following part, so I just see at least, ceased to exist on my Adobe website, everything takes place in the link from above. I leave it as an info yet, it might still fit for you. For this purpose, please click your way through to your Adobe Store and find the button "Get Serial Number". Fill in the form and after a while you will get the real serial number.
Additionally you should have a look at Adobe's database, to see what's stored/saved about your accounts. Here you will find general infos about your Adobe Account.
On the other hand, if necessary and for further questions click through http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html and if "open" please use the chat, I for may part had the best experiences. I quote from Adobe's employee Preran: The chat button is activated as soon as there is an agent available to help.

Is there anyway I can use my iPod Touch serial number or Apple ID to trace and find back my iPod Touch? Cause I lost it recently(as you know iPod Touch can only go online if there is WiFi). is there any other ways too, apart from contacting the police?

No.
- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
iCloud: Find My iPhone
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
- If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.
