Legitimately bought serial number is wrong???

Wanted to install legitimately bought CS2 from CDs on a new PC. Installed with serial number. Installation without problem, but activation is not possible. Telephone support says: Go to www.adobe.com/go/activation. So I loaded down the 3 files "CS2_RetNon_Ger_1, 2 and 3" which should function without activation and tried to install. But now the installation routine says, that the serial number is wrong. What can I do?

Hello Gerald,
did you purchase your product from these firms like Amazon? If yes, this is not a serial number, only a code with which you can request a serial number from Adobe. Please have a look at http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html. (Start here: How did you purchase your product?)
The following part, so I just see at least, ceased to exist on my Adobe website, everything takes place in the link from above. I leave it as an info yet, it might still fit for you. For this purpose, please click your way through to your Adobe Store and find the button "Get Serial Number". Fill in the form and after a while you will get the real serial number.

    If you are certain it is correct, you will need to contact Adobe:
    Contact Customer Care
    You may need to use the chat option.
    If you want to check your serial number, sign in to your Adobe account if you registered it.

  • Bought Serial Number...No Email Sent?

    I just bought a serial number for iWork to update my trial version. I got the confirmation email, but I have yet to recieve the email that contains the actual serial number. I checked my spam and trash and nothing is there. It's been a little under 24 hours since I purchased this product. Do I just need to wait longer, or did my email somehow get lost and I should contact Apple? How long does it usually take to get the email with the serial number?

    This is a different question, and deserves its own topic. There have been many identical queries to yours. You can search for them in the discussions. Basically, you don't need a number to use the disk version, but before installing it you must delete all traces of the trial version that either came with your computer or you downloaded. Look for Yvan Koenig's script to automate the erasure.

  • Installing PSE 6 on my new laptop, telling me serial number is wrong.

    I am installing my old copy of PSE 6 on my new laptop.  I looked up my serial number on my Adobe account. When I enter it, it tells me that the serial number is incorrect.  I am using copy/paste, so cant be that I am entering wrong.  How can I fix this?

    What are the FIRST 4 characters of your serial number?   I just want to know if it is a real serial number or simply a product number. 
    PLEASE DON'T POST THE ENTIRE SERIAL NUMBER HERE.  I am only asking for FIRST 4 characters only.
    Also, have you tried pasting that code in Notepad before pasting it in Adobe product in question?  Sometimes formatting characters may interfere with the pasting process.  So basically paste it in Notepad and then copy from Notepad to paste it in PSE6.

  • My laptop had a virus it wiped my adobe photoshop 10, i have the disc and after the first disc is done it asks for the second disc yet it wont continue its install and says that the serial number is wrong on second disc but it works for the first disc, i

    it wont let the second disc install and says its a trial period when i paid alot for it, i need to finish the install !!

    Photoshop Elements 10 was a single disk product. Might the second disk be the video editing program 'Premiere Elements 10'? If so it will have a different serial number (24-digits commencing 1143) to that of Photoshop Elements (24-digits commencing 1057).
    If you don't have the serial number, but did register the software, you should be able to retrieve it from the 'My  Products' section in your 'My Adobe' A/c.

  • Valid Serial Number, but Wrong Product?

    After an hour long chat with a technical support person yesterday I am still not any closer to fixing this problem. Can someone here please point me in the right direction?
    I have a valid serial number for Design and Web Premium Pro CS6. Because of a hard drive problem I had to download and reinstall, which I did without any problem, but when I was prompted for my serial number I got this error:
    The pull down menu you see here does not include Design and Web Premium Pro, so the activation stalls at that point. I double checked my account page to make sure I had the right product name and serial number, and I do.
    The technical support person told me to download CS6 again, and I did that -- I downloaded the Design and Web Premium Pro package, and then the same problem popped up. Any thoughts on how to resolve this would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

    with the serial number redacted:
    I would love to get in touch with Adobe, but every time I try to start the process I end up at the same place: here, on the forum. Can you point me to a phone number? Because I'm getting dizzy on this carousel. And thanks for your help, I'm happy if I've finally explained the situation well enough to make somebody see the problem.

    please help me, consider that there is plenty of users are having same problem, my ipad2 is not a problem.

    If the iPads are Counterfeit then Apple will have nothing to do with them except maybe try to find the Counterfeiters and charge them.
