I purchased a creative cloud membership but it still asks me for a serial number when I try to open software

Question

I had Photoshop CC, Dreamweaver CC, and Illustrator CC installed as a trial. The trial has now run out and I purchased an account for a full subscription to all adobe software, but in the creative cloud app it keeps prompting me as "your trial has expired" and when I click "license this software" it prompts me with a serial number screen. All uninstalled apps have a "try" or "buy" button next to them when I assume it should say "install" since I've paid for them.
Some things I've read on forums and have tried with no success:
uninstalling and reinstalling all apps including creative cloud desktop manager
used the adobe cleaner utility to clean all leftover adobe files, then tried reinstalling software
edited the hosts file to remove any additional lines.
changed my language settings to International english.
tried signing in and out
I was told this computer had pirated adobe software installed on it at one time.  Not sure if this is responsible for why this has been so problematic. Please help, Ive spent hours trying to figure this out. ps i'm on a mac.

Jodie84,
I have just checked your account and found that you indeed have bought a Creative Cloud for Teams subscription but you have assigned the single seat to another user hence you ( If you are using your own Adobe ID ) are getting the trial error message.
Two options : Either reassign the seat to your self or add an additional seat and invite your self in the same Team.
