IWork 06 serial number after hard drive crash

How can I get my serial number aftert my drive crashed?
I looked up the order online at the apple store and there is no serial number. What to do?

Sage,
Welcome to Apple discussions.
If you don't have a hard copy of your serial number, you'll likely have to call the Apple Helpline at 1-800-275-2273 to get it. Once you do, you might think about writing it down.

  • How do I unactivate after hard drive crash?

    Just purchased an upgrade to CS6 Photoshop from CS3 Photoshop but hard drive crashed before I could uninstall it. How do I deactivate after hard drive crash? Do I need to or can I just load my full CS3 copy and then upgrade it to my new CS6?

    You can just install CS6 directly.  You will be prompted to enter your qualifying serial number from CS3 during the install process.

    You don't need to have Lightroom 3 and 4 installed on your computer to install Lightroom 5.  Just install Lightroom 5 and input your serial number for 3 in the previous version box and your serial number for 5 in the upgrade box.

  • Deactivation of product after hard drive crashes

    My hard drive crashed and I didn't have a chance to de-activate my Adobe photoshop Elements2.0
    after installing a new hard drive, installing windows 8.1, I began to re-install the software. I installed
    Photoshop2.0, upon installations I opened the software and proceeded to register it with the company.
    It told me that it was already registered, do I need to de-activate this serial number? if so how do I do
    this? How can I keep this software working as a valid part of my photo editing?
    Thank you. dan

    Call Adobe Customer Support only they can help you.

  • After hard drive crash I needed to authorise my pc again. itunes tells me iphone cannot sync as pc not authorised. when I try to authorise the pc, itunes tells me pc is already authorised... what can i do?

    After a recent hard drive crash I needed to authorise my pc again. I first de-authorised all previous computers (there was no other option)
    Then I authorised the pc with the new hard drive.
    then I tried to sync
    Then itunes tells me iphone cannot sync as pc not authorised.
    when I try to authorise the pc, itunes tells me pc is already authorised...
    I have been playing this game 10 times now ... "cannot sync because pc not authorised" and then "cannot authorise as already authorised"
    what can i do?
    thanks

    yes, a few times. the number of authorised computers decreases and increases from zero to one and vice versa accordingly. yet I am still being told that it cannot sync.

  • After hard drive crash, Pages app brought over, and upgrade to snow leopard installed, Pages would not launch.  Re-downloaded the 3.0.3 update and Pages launched, but will not open any documents or start new document.

    After a hard-drive crash, Pages application was brought over from the old hard drive, and upgraded to snow leopard.  However, Pages would not launch.  I do not have the disks and the computer was given to me by my son with iWork 08 installed, so I do not have the ability to re-install using Purchases.  I re-installed the update 3.0.3, which I already had, but thought it worth a try.  That enabled Pages to launch, but it will not open a new or old document.  I can see in preview the document, but it will not open.  Any suggestions besides repurchasing Pages.  I've just put out a lot of money for a new hard drive and retrieval of apps and docs from the old hard drive and would like not to have to put more money in it. 
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    You can not simply drag over Pages, particularly if it was perhaps damaged in a crash.
    As it was only Pages '08 it may be time to upgrade to Pages '09 from the App Store. It is not that expensive and will allow you to install it on any Mac sharing the same Apple I.D. and protect you from a repeat of this problem.
    There are free alternatives to Pages if you are hard strapped, it depends on what you are using Pages for, it is not the only option by far.

  • Unable to activate my previously working CS6 suite after hard drive crash

    I had a recent hard drive crash, obviously with no chance to deactivate CS6. So now with a fresh installation, I cannot activate the suite.
    Is there a way to deactivate the key registered to my previous PC installation?

    To deactivate an inaccessible installation you need to contact Adobe Support thru chat and ask them to reset your activations.
    For the link below click the Still Need Help? option in the blue area at the bottom and choose the chat option...

  • Syncing iPhone with Outlook 2007 after hard drive crash.

    I recently had a hard drive crash.  We were able to retrieve the .pst files for Outlook 2007 and I sync my iPhone with Outlook for contacts, calendar and such for business.  The iPhone of course, was not affected.  I downloaded iTunes on the new hard drive, and backed up the phone.  (I sync music and apps on my husband's laptop.) 
    Now, in trying to sync, though, I get a lot of nebulous messages that really don't explain what the outcome will be. 
    Box says:
    The information on the iPhone "Susan's iPhone" is synced with another user account.  Do you want to sync this iPhone with the information from this user account instead?
    (Choices:  "Merge Info mergest th einformation on this iPhone with the information from this user account.  OR "Replace Info" replaces the information on this iPhone with the information from this user account.  )
    My best guess would be 'Merge info" but then, will I end up with double everything?  I have many hundreds of contacts and years of calendars.
    It seems with Apple I'm always cleaning up one mess after another.  Today when installing iTunes, it corrupted my Outlook and I had to repair Outlook. So it would be a nightmare to have double of everything on my phone and on my computer. 
    Does anyone have a clue as to what to expect? 

    On a PC with Windows or with Paralels iTunes 8.2 has an option for Outlook which works with Outlook 2003 and Outlook 2007 (if it works - see my post on a case where it doesn't ...)

  • Preserve previous homepage after hard drive crash

    My hard drive crashed and due to various major issues with the hard drive, much of my data was not backed up as it said it was...so...
    is there a way to preserve my previous iweb site so that when you type in the general web.mac.com/username it will still automatically reroute you to the old site rather than whatever new site i make on iweb now?

    yes, a few times. the number of authorised computers decreases and increases from zero to one and vice versa accordingly. yet I am still being told that it cannot sync.

  • Any way to get music from ipod back into library after hard drive crash?

    I just survived and am recovering from a hard drive crash. For some reason, on my backup, I only retained about 500 of my 2500 songs in my library. All of my music is intact on the ipod however. Is there any way at all to resolve this issue and get the music from the ipod into the libary, or in the alternative, any way to back up the stuff on the ipod? Thanks.

    Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you use our iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
    Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
    The transfer of content from sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
    Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    Comparison of iPod managers
    TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod2PC Windows Only
    iDump Windows Only
    SharePod Windows Only
    iPodRip Mac & Windows
    YamiPod Mac and Windows
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows
    Floola Mac & Windows
    iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible - Windows version only)
    There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
    Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

  • Time Machine after hard drive crash

    Recently, my MacBook's hard drive crashed. Fortunately, I had most of my data backed up via Time Machine. So, once Apple installed a new hard drive, I "restored all" with Time Machine. Now when I launch Time Machine, my archive only goes back a few days, to when I initially "restored all" -- before, my archives went back to November. Where did all of my backups go? How can I get them to show up in Time Machine?

    when TM does the first backup after a full system restore it sometimes does a complete (or nearly complete) backup. This happened to me once. this creates a big space demand to accommodate that backup and if there is not enough space TM will start deleting old backups to create space. To check this open TM drive in finder, go to Backups.backupdb->computer-name folder. all available backups will be listed there chronologically. how far back does it go?

  • Can't find iWork Serial Number after 'Genius' reset MAC OS X?

    So my Mac somewhat crashed last week (could not sign in) and the Mac Genius guy downloaded a new MAC OS X software program.
    He told me to click-and-drag my previous files [Macintosh HD..., Previous Systems..., 2008-03-27_1212] and now when I try to open iWork 08', *it wants my serial number.*
    *But I don't know where my iWork 08' serial number is? Can anyone help!!??*
    Thanks
    -CO767

    I believe you mean the genius reinstalled Mac OS X.
    The iWork serial number is stored in HD > Library > Preferences & it was likely lost in the crash as it's not part of the system. You will need to find the card with the iWork serial number that was in the original box. If you purchased the serial number online you should be able to find in by going to the Store tab at the top of this page then click on Account (at the upper right of the page under the Search box), then Downloadable software purchases & log in.

  • How to disable audible account after hard drive crash

    I have had 2 computer hard drive crashes that were authorized iTunes accounts.  Since they crashed, I don't know how to de-authorize them. What happens after all 5 of my authorized account computers crash?  I can no longer listen to music purchased through iTunes?
    I hope there is a way to de-authorize a computer that crashed.  Can anyone help!

    I believe this might of worked after all. I did like you said and double clicked on the My Catalog file. PSA and it just put in the timeline and dates on the pictures but had a ? mark and no picture. I then chose to dowload files from the My pictures folder that the downloader was directed to for each download. It seems to restoring the photo's and putting them with the tags and all. I am so relieved because I had 37,500 pictures that would of been untagged and out of order. I learned my lesson to do a backup more frequently! Thanks for your help. If I would want to update to PSE 9 is it compatible with windows XP?
