I had to erase and reinstall everything on my computer.  To open and use my Lightroom 5 I have to re-enter the serial number but I don't know it--I lost the paper with it on it during a move.  What do a do?!

I lost my serial number for Lightroom 5.  What do I do?!  I don't want to have to buy it again.

If you registered your software with Adobe, then you can find it on their web site
Find your serial number quickly
If you didn't, it sounds like you will have to purchase Lightroom again ... which brings me to some advice ... you need a better method of storing your serial numbers than a piece of paper. I recommend using a computer file (perhaps named SerialNumbers.txt) that contains all of your serial numbers (not just Lightroom) and stored in the your computer AND the cloud so that you will never lose it.

  • HT201342 i lost my iphone and i need to follow up it by serial number but i don't know how to do it.

    i lost my Iphone 4 last week & ineed to follow up it by serial number but i don't know how i can do it,i need help

    If you need to find your serial number you can check:
    The box it came in
    iTunes, by going to Preferences>Devices and hovering your mouse over the backup
    http://supportprofile.apple.com, if you ever registered it with Apple.
    This won't help you find it, however.  It will only enable you to prove it is yours if it is found, and to inform your insurance company.

  • I purchased adobe acrobat pro last summer and was never able to get it to work. I gave up on it but am in immediate need of use of the program. Every time I try to use it it says that I need to enter a serial number but my serial number never worked from

    My serial number does not work and never worked, is there any way that I can be issued a new one?

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom

    There is no serial number for CC Cloud versions. They are authenticated via your Adobe ID.
    Sign in to your Cloud account with your Adobe ID and download the software via the Cloud app.

    You will have to check that with sales support directly. Nobody here can answer this question, even more so since it would require to know your purchase details and other confidential info like serial numbers, which would be stupid to share on a public forum. Try the web chat.

    Hi, Robert here, I moved to US from Singapore and I would like to switch itunes so I can purchase a book but I don's know how? Please help!

    I believe you mean to say that you wish to switch which country's iTunes Store you are accessing. Go to iTunes Store > Change Country (all the way at the bottom) to do this. You'll have to use up all of your iTunes balance to do this. Post back if this is not what you wanted to do.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like the iPhone is in a status called Activation Lock. Please use the following article for information on Activation Lock; it includes information on locating your Apple ID.
