Installation says my Full version is an update when I enter serial number to install.

I have a Full New version of CS3 I need to install on an old computer. The installation says that it is an update but it is not. I have another full CS3 and they are the same in every way. I am not new to the Adobe experience.

the two installation programs are NOT different.  it's your serial numbers that's different:  apparently, one is an upgrade and the other is not.
you are allowed two installations/activations with each individual user license so use the full version's serial number for your 2nd install/activation,
if you already have two activations with your full serial number, you cannot use it for a 3rd activation unless you deactivate one of the other two.

  • I have the adobe cloud 9.99/ month photography package i downloaded lightroom 5.4, it told me it was a trial version, and i'm now at the end of the trial and it won't let me download the full version and i don't have a serial number

    i have the adobe cloud 9.99/ month photography package i downloaded lightroom 5.4, it told me it was a trial version, and i'm now at the end of the trial and it won't let me download the full version and i don't have a serial number. also, when i click buy, i get an error message saying, "application not found."

    There are two different LR’s, one with a serial-number licensing and one with a CC-signin license.
    You should uninstall the serial-number LR you have installed, then
    Quit the CC Desktop application,
    Restart the CC Desktop application—this will rescan what you have installed and not see LR,
    LR will now be on the CC Desktiop apps list, so install that.

  • Bought full version, but insist it is trial. no serial number + error message + customer support

    Hi
    1. I just bought a full version 12 year subscription, after first downloading a trial version. It now insists on remaining a trial version, and ask me to submit a serial number. I can not find it.
    2. I have made a combined pdf, and edited text into it. This worked until page 70. Now I keep getting an error message, and it won't allow me to edit more text. I use a Mac OS X 10.9.2
    3. Is this actually the customer support that adobe offers?
    Thanks

  • Trying to activate my iphone 5. when connected to itunes its says i need version 10.7. but when i try to update, it says that im current at 10.6.3.

    trying to activate my iphone 5. when connected to itunes its says i need version 10.7. but when i try to update, it says that im current at 10.6.3.

    iTunes version 10.7 requires at least Mac OS X version 10.6.8 if you're running a Mac, or Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later if you're running Windows.
    Is your computer up-to-date enough for iTunes 10.7?

  • Queries related to Redwood Installation / Upgrade to Full version

    Hi All,
    We Need some help.
    We have couple of question related to redwood installation, kindly help us.
    We have SAP Central Process for Scheduling (Redwood 6.0.2.7) basic version installed on our Unix server.
    We are now planning to migrate to the SAP CPS full version and have already procured the license. SAP added the installables at the marketplace under - Installation and upgrades - My Application components - SAP Partner products - SAP CPS Scheduler (Full) after the procurement. We have downloaded the installables now.
    My questions are:
    1. How do we now upgrade the Redwood OEM version to full version? Because, we had mailed to SAP with the OEM license to change it to full version, but then SAP replied to us asking us to send them the full version license. How do I get that? Does this file (register.txt) gets created once we start the installation of Redwood full version? Because we had assumed that by buying the full version license, we would just need to send the OEM license and it would be changed to a full version, but its not so. How do we go about from here. Do we do a new installation and uninstall the basic version?
    2. Also, if we are to do a new installation, how do we get the register.txt file which we need to send to SAP for key generation?
    We are very new to Redwood. Any pointers would be highly appreciated.
    Awaiting your response.
    Thanks in advance.
    Warm Regards
    Rajeet

  • Since the Version 20.0 update when starting firefox I have frequently got the error message "firefox is having trouble your windows and tabs" .

    Since the version 20.0 update when starting firefox I have frequently got the error message "firefox is having trouble recovering your windows and tabs" This has not occurred with previous versions. If I click on the box "restore" and close firefox the problem reoccurs if I click close I lose the bookmark sidebar. I am so sick and tired of these frequent and buggy updates (every one since 17.0 have caused norton 360 to stop detecting tracking cookies for several weeks and or broken the norton toolbar) that I will uninstall firefox and switch to another browser if this does not change.

  • Entering serial Number on Expired LR4 Trail Version

    My trial LR4 has expired.  I have a serial number.   When I start LR I get a screen that says my trial has expired and LR will now quit.   My only option is to press OK, and the program quits.  
    I have read other responses, telling me to use the HELP menu, but this kicks me into my browser, and onto the adobe help site.
    another suggestion was to click on a link inside the pop up window, but there is none on my computer MAC OS 10.6.8

    I tried that.   Deleted lightroom files, preferences for adobe and Some other adobe files as well.
    After redownloading, and installing, I get the same screen telling me that LR is going to quit
    Thanks for the advice

    I don’t really know if it’ll work, but you could try uninstalling and re-installing the trial and maybe the first time through the installer, it’ll ask for the serial number?

  • I bought the Mac version of Premiere Elements, can I get the Windows version for free or cheap with my serial number?

    I bought the Mac version of Premiere Elements, can I get the Windows version for free or cheap with my serial number? I'm about to migrate back to PC soon and I'd love to not have to buy the program again since I just bought it. Under my order history though it only shows it for Mac so I wanted to make sure.

    The boxed packaging is not sold by Adobe direct. If you want to explore that type of purchase which offers the perk of a Windows and a Mac installation disc, you need to purchase from an authorized reseller who is not going to offer you "upgraded pricing". The seller would be its own entity with its own pricing and own return/refund policy. Sometimes the authorized reseller price may be less than the Adobe"upgraded pricing".
    Did you purchase your Premiere Elements 13 Mac from Adobe direct and are within 30 days of purchase? If so, you can contact Adobe Chat Orders to ask for return/refund. And, then you can explore the authorized resellers for pricing and availability of the box packaging. Maybe check out the pricing all around before making any final decisions.
    Please review and consider.
    Thank you.

  • I have the right serial number to install arabic onto Ai, but the installer will not accept the serial number

    I have the right serial number to install arabic onto Ai, but the installer will not accept the serial number

    I'm also getting the "invalid serial number", but I'm wanting to upgrade my 5.1 to 5.1.4 to take advantage of HDV 720p/24 support. Is the 5.1.4 update even an option still? I really don't want to be forced to upgrade to FCS2 and shell out $500, just to get this one feature that was included in a patch.
    I went to the Registration page and it actually allowed me to register the serial number... (which I'm pretty sure I already had), but it still won't let me in to download any updates. Also, the email confirmation that was supposed to be sent has not arrived 20+ minutes later.
    Very strange. I called Apple support and they estimated a wait time of 15 mins... ugh.
    Anyone have other suggestions?

  • I am having problems to run logic pro 9, there is an error display that says I need to set bonjour and that this app serial number has been used by another red user,  could anybody guide me?

    I am having problems to run logic pro 9, there is an error display that says I need to set bonjour and that this app serial number has been used by another red user,  could anybody guide me? actually, my computer can't start  since three days ago, could it be the same problem?

    Logic is the APPlication (program, app) that you are having the problem with.
    Logic Pro can take advantage of other computers on your local (home or work) network to help it do "heavy lifting" data chores by using Bonjour and a feature called Nodes.   It seems that Logic is attempting to find and connect to another machine on your network.
    Do you have Logic installed on another computer there?  That may be the source of the confilict.
    You might want to post this question in the Logic Pro Community.
    Be sure to indicate the version of Logic Pro that you are using.  I'm sure the folks there can help you out.
