I'm attempting to install a copy of Photoshop CS6 I purchased back in June of 2011 and am finding that my serial number no longer works. What gives?

The title pretty much says it all. I've downloaded and installed Adobe Photoshop CS6 and have entered the serial number I was provided at the time of purchase but am receiving an error message that reads "The serial number you entered is invalid. Please try again. If the problem persists, contact Customer Support."

Ugh. Y'know what? Nevermind. Turns out that I'd actually purchase Photoshop CS5. I'm marking this issue as resolved.

  • I just installed Firefox 4 from Firefox 3.6.15. Every time I open the browser, it reverts back to 3.6.15 and I have to reload 4 all over again. What gives?

    I installed beta 4 last night. Now, every time I open Firefox it asks me if I want to make Firefox my default browser. I click yes, and it goes to Firefox 3.6.15 and thanks me for upgrading. I have been running 3.6.15 since it was released. I have to reload beta 4 to get back to it again.

    I got this all screwed up too.
    hmm.. where to start?
    3.6 and 4.0 beta - really aren't intended to play well together.
    As has been mentioned above, they tend to write over each other.
    I managed to get both 3.6.15 and 4.0 beta 12 on the same machine.
    But, I had to do it several times.
    I got lucky by deleting everything Mozilla, then installing 4.0b12, then 3.6.15 - while making sure that each installed into a separate folder.
    I also took care to copy out a couple of BookMark BackUp files - just in case.
    My old 3.6# had become so bloated - and, Unstable - for Me, it was time.
    The bookmarks were all that I was still interested in.
    All the Plugins, Themes, AddOns, etc... had slowed the app to a crawl.
    So, I did as complete a wipe of Mozilla bloat code that I could, including profiles.
    I then did some registry cleaning.
    Then I installed 4.0b12 and 3.6.15.
    I can't open them both at the same time.
    If I open 3.6.15 first, then open 4.0b12 - the beta comes up as 3.6.15.
    If I open 4.0b12 first, then open 3.6.15 - the 3.6 comes up as the beta.
    This has a lot to do with both apps sharing the same default profile.
    I hope to drop down to one app in the near future.
    So, cobbling multiple profiles in order to diddle side by side apps - isn't worth it at this stage.
    For me, I can't open FF 4.0b12 when my virus protection is running. PCTools doesn't like some thing about the way FF4.0 wants to phone home when it opens.
    So, I can't commit to the 4.0b12, yet.
    3.6.15 was crashing on open too - until I uninstalled the feedback addon. - go figure -.
    Also, I can't get the 4.0b12 to start in safe-mode with the PCTools antivirus running.
    At the rater they are going, I don't see 3.6.# going away any time soon.

  • I installed Lightroom on another computer and it tells me my serial number is incorrect. What should I do?

    I don't get any other error message.

    Check your Adobe account online to confirm if you are using the correct serial number or not (Find your serial number quickly)... if you registered the product then the serial number should be there.  If you determine that the serial number is correct then contact Adobe suppport using chat when they are available to get their help resolving the problem.

  • After re-installing Win 7 64 on my computer, and attempting to install my copy of Adobe Photoshop Elements, I now get the following message: "This version of Photoshop Elements requires MS Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher to be installed". Does anyone have

    After re-installing Win 7 64 on my computer, and attempting to install my copy of Adobe Photoshop Elements, I now get the following message: "This version of Photoshop Elements requires MS Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher to be installed". Does anyone have an idea of what the problem is? It has always worked in the past.

    I have found a temporary solution, allowing the previous version of iTunes (v. 11.1.3 (x64) in my case) to be re-installed.  It will allow you to re-establish use of iTunes until the Apple software engineers fix the most recent disasterous upgrade (v. 11.1.4).  Please see and follow the procedure in the following article:http://smallbusiness.chron.com/reverting-previous-version-itunes-32590.html   The previous version works beautifully.

    Can I install a second copy of photoshop elements 2.0 on my partners laptop? and can she use it also?

    Wow, Thanks for the answer,

    so its okay for my partner to use it to?
    And also, is it alright to make money from using photoshop elements 2.0?
    Do you recommend any free up dates to elements 2.0?
    Thanks

    Photoshop Elements 1.0.1 seems like very old software 2001 I believe.  Try asking in the Elements maybe someone there will be able to answer your question. Photoshop Elements

    The workaround for this problem is to revert to IE9 or earlier, install your old PSE, then reinstall the latest IE version.

    Peter,
    Apple doesn't sell iWork that way anymore.
    You have to get it from the Mac App Store if you want to purchase from Apple, or purchase a disk from a software retailler like Amazon. They're quite cheap online now.
    If you do purchase an iWork '09 disk, you will need to trash the trial copy and any plist files it has generated before you install it.
