Invalid Serial number error given when reinstalling Acrobat 9 Standard. How can I reinstall?

I recently reinstalled Windows7 on my PC and am trying to reinstall Acrobat from the disk that came with my PC. I have the serial number from the Adobe product registration page. I am receiving the error "Invalid Serial Number". I checked for any remnant files in my PC and the registry, there are none. How can I get this install to run?

Just talked with Chat. I will post the transcript. What a waste of time.

  • Invalid serial number error message when installing Acrobat 7

    I have my original software CD and serial number but understand that I need to use the downloaded program because Adobe no longer supports the activation code required for installing from the disc.  I was under the impression that I was to use the original serial number.  This is what I used when reinstalling my CS2 Photoshop  in the same circumstances.
    I downloaded 22001904.exe and ran it but when it gets to the serial number I receive invalid serial number message no matter how I enter the number.  I even tried cutting and pasting from my Adobe profile, since I have registered the program w/ Adobe previously along with other Adobe programs.
    Can you advise me how to proceed? 
    Sincerely,

    no, use the serial number listed on the page where you downloaded acrobat 7, not your acrobat serial number

  • I am getting an invalid serial number error for Adobe Acrobat XI

    Hi -
    My principal has ordered a copy of Adobe Acrobat XI for a school computer. The disc came with a serial number for a Mac installation, which he is hoping to install on his macbook air. I am using Remote Disc to install it.
    However, the serial number that comes both on the invoice and on the back of the CD sleeve is only 23 digits long and when entered gives an Invalid Serial Number error. I would love it if somebody from Adobe could contact me and get a replacement serial number that would be valid for the installation.
    I'm not going to post the serial number here because of reasons.

    You need to contact Adobe Support directly.  For the link below click the Still Need Help? option at the bottom and choose the chat option...

  • Old computer died, can't activate Lightroom on new computer. Invalid serial number error.

    My old computer fried. Obviously, didn't deactivate Lightroom. Installed Lightroom on new computer but can't activate... getting invalid serial number error. Trying to get thru to Adobe is a joke. Help.

    Most likely, you downloaded the Creative Cloud version of Lightroom which will not accept your serial number. You need to uninstall it, reboot, then download the standalone version of Lightroom and install that.

  • I need to install photoshop cs4 extended from a disk to a new computer because my old computer had a hard drive crash. There is no serial number on the back of the case.  How can I obtain a usable serial number?

    Find your serial number quickly
    You can activate software without following up and registering it... at least that was the case in the past.  The serial number is normally located on the disc case or a box inside the main box.  If you did not purchase the disc from Adobe then it is possible you would have dealt with a redemption code, in which case it would have been up to you to keep a record of the serial number, especially if you did not follow up and register the software.

  • I won Lightroom 1.0 a few years ago at an Adobe clinic in Fremont. I have since misplaced the original disk and cannot get the program to open. It wants a serial number and I don't have one. How can I get the serial number so I can use the software?

    I won Lightroom 1.0 as a door prize a few years ago at an Adobe clinic in Fremont. I have since misplaced the original disk and cannot get the program to open. It wants a serial number and I don't have one. How can I get the serial number so I can use the software?

    Thanks for replying, Jim. I wasn't planning to use it for raw images. I shoot film, black and white, and have many negatives I want to print. I am unfamiliar with the upgrades in Lightroom. I wasn't unhappy with the version I have. It was useful for my purposes.
    Because it was a few years ago, I don't remember if I registered the product. I was able to login to my account. But could not find a path to communicate with Adobe. I will keep trying.

  • I ask for help, I can not cancel a monthly subscription to Adobe! contrary to the tutorial does not appear  scribed CANCEL PLAN on my page management plan, is not worse than any serial number of my subscription, where is it? how can I cancel monthly charg

    I ask for help, I can not cancel a monthly subscription to Adobe.
    contrary to the tutorial does not appear scribed "CANCEL PLAN" on my page management plan, is not worse than any serial number of my subscription, where is it? how can I cancel monthly charge? 

    Just to clarify: This is a user to user Forum, so you are not really addressing Adobe here, even though some Adobe employees thankfully have been dropping by.
    Have you done a Forum search?
    How can I delete my account? There is no "cancel plan" in my creative cloud free membership.

  • HT4007 I need my serial number from the downloaded copy of Aperture. How can I get it?

    Bill

    Downloaded from where? There is no serial number if you downloaded from the App Store.
    if you downloaded from the Apple Site and Aperture is installed you can get the serial number from the Preferences pane of Aperture. If it is not installed and you don't have the email sent to you with the serial number you can try Pro Application Replacement Serial Numbers

  • Reinstalling Acrobat Pro 11 and receive invalid serial number error

    Any suggs on why this many be happening since the serial number is correct for loading?

    Pam, Thank you!  the problem is not finding the serial number.  I have that by looking up my registration.  The problem I am having is when running set up for the program you get to the serial number screen.  I enter the serial number as emailed and verified by my account, then proceed with the 'next" button.  That is when I receive the message, invalid serial number not a valid serial number go back and reenter.  I try to reenter and still the same message. 
    Any other suggestions or do you know how to actually speak to a representative?  If not it is time to scrap my new Adobe purchase and go back to Nuance's programs. 

  • Invalid Serial Number error installing Acro 8

    I purchased Acrobat 8 a few years ago. Hard disk crashed. Now trying to download/install on new hd. Picked the only option on "Other Downloads" screen. After download it ran. I copy/pasted my SN from "My Products" screen when prompted so no typos are possible:
    Serial: [removed by moderator - never share publicly](as shown on My Products screen!)
    InstallShield installer says "Invalid serial number". I tried many times, with and without dashes. I don't remember if I bought "Pro" version or not because "My Products" doesn't show that information. I think it's trying to install "Pro" and maybe thats the problem? But there is no option to download a "non-Pro" version! It only shows:
    Version 8
    Platform Win
    Registration date May 7, 2007
    Help!
    (No thank you, I do not want or need higher versions unless provided for free!)

    You should to contact Adobe Support either by chat or via phone when you have serial number and activation issues.  In this case they may at least be able to tell you if it is a version issue.  I don't know if there are any options to download a Standard version that old.  But if so, then the page to find it on would be... http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-8-9-product-downloads.html

    Hi AbbyR,
    Welcome to Adobe Forum
    I can see that you have upgrade version of Acrobat pro 11, it is asking for previous qualifying serial number, a case has been assigned regarding this 0212208202.
    I am going to mail you the serial number required & which is registered under your email ID. Please enter that serial number & let me know if it worked.
