Lightroom 4 - Registering Student & Teacher Edition

I need to register and obtain a password for Adobe Photoshop Lightroon 4 - Student Teacher Edition for my step-son (DOB: 23 Nov 1995), however the instructions given with the software are not clear to me about how I should do this.  I have an electronic copy of his Student Card.  Any help with this would be appreciated.

Hi Jim, Thanks for the information about registering Lightroom 4: student edition.  I did eventually manage to work it out myself, however the information provided by Adobe was very confusing. Regards

Packaged with the student/teacher edition is a little yellow card.  On that card there's a web site referred to.  When you go to that website you will be asked to provide certain information to verify that you qualify for the student/teacher edition and discount.  When that is verified you'll be asked to enter the code included with your Lightroom package.  It looks like a standard serial number.  After that number has been verified, along with all of the other information you are asked to provide, you will receive an e-mail with your serial number that you use to activate Lightroom.

  • How can I get a new serial key for Photoshop Lightroom 4 student & teacher edition?

    I bought a new laptop, and I Lost my serial key to my copy of Lightroom 4 student & teach edition. If somebody can help me, that would be great

    If you took the time to register Lightroom with Adobe then you can log into your Adobe account and get your serial number from there. If you still have the old computer with Lightroom installed on it the serial number can be retrieved from C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Lightroom. Open the lrreg file using Notepad and you can read the number. Note that the ProgramData folder is a hidden folder. It will be necessary for you to change so that your system browser will show hidden folders. If you are on a Mac the path is /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom.

  • I purchased lightroom 4 Student Teacher Edition. I am not a student. Will I be able to use it or do I need to return to Best Buy?

    I am trying to find out if I am able to use lightroom 4 Student Teacher Edition. When I purchased it I was not aware of this. I am not a student.
    Will I be able to install and use it, or do I need to return to Best Buy and get something else.
    Please help.
    Thank you,

    > CS6 will only be available for purchase until May 30th and then Creative Cloud takes over completely.
    That is not correct. We are still selling CS6 software for quite some time. Where did you see an indication otherwise?
    Regarding Dynamic Link: In the current versions of the applications, no suite is required. For example, if you have the single-application subscriptions for both Premiere Pro CC and After Effects CC, Dynamic Link works between them. Dynamic Link is still limited to working between applications that share the same major version (i.e., CS6 with CS6, CC with CC, and so on).

  • Lightroom 5 - Student/Teacher Edition

    I bought the student/teacher edition of lightroom 5 from Best Buy about a week ago but my current laptop's operating system is not compatible with it. I am planning on upgrading within the next few months. Is there a time limit on activating and sending in my proof of eligiblity? And will I be able to continue using it even after I graduate?

    There should not be any time limit for activating the product.  I can only speak for myself but I'd recommend getting the eligibility matters settled as soon as possible.
    For details regrading the student/teacher provisions you can refer to the following information page:

  • Adobe Lightroom 4 Student Teacher edition

    I recently purchased Lightroom 4 and have used it successfully on my laptop. I go to college online and had to replace my laptop because it was unreliable and would restart without telling me (this is horribly bad if I'm in the middle of an exam!) So I replaced it with a newer laptop. The new generation of laptops are exactly including disc drives because the new thing is to be a thin laptop! I want to transfer my Lightroom 4 to my new laptop by doing it as an online download. I've already purchased it and don't want to pay again. Please help?

    There are a couple of options for downloading earlier versions of Lightroom:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5566
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5567
    The page linked below should also have links for Lightroom 4:
    http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-lightroom-4-is-out.html
    Be sure to follow instructions regarding signing in or else the downloads will not process properly.  If you visit one of the other download pages in that site they have a section called "Note: Very Important Instructions" that gives specific steps for signing in.

  • I have no idea how to find my serial number to launch Lightroom. I have the student teacher edition and I'm using a mac

    I have no idea how to find my serial number to launch Lightroom. I have the student teacher edition and I'm using a mac.

    How did you purchase Lightroom? Download? Package?
    Have you followed the instructions to verify that you qualify for academic discount?

  • I've heard 2 things:  1)that you can only register the cs5 Student Teacher edition once  2) that you can register the cs5 Student Teacher edition to up to 2 devices. Which one is true?

    I need to transfer my Adobe Cs5 software (Student Teacher edition) and license from my old Mac Book Pro to a newer Mac Air. I've heard 2 things:
    1)that you can only register the cs5 Student Teacher edition once
    2)that you can register the cs5 Student Teacher edition to up to 2 devices
    Which one is true? How do I transfer the software and software license?

    Regardless of what heard you can do registration-wise, which you only need to do once, you are allowed to have two activated installations.  There is no limit to how many times you might activate an installation, but you can only maintain two activated installations at a time.  So if you have two machines you can have the software installed and activated on both.  If you get a new (third) machine tyhen you would have to deactivate one of the other two machines' installations in order to activate/use the sfotware on the newest one.

  • Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 (Student/Teacher): Questions before purchasing

    Hi,
    I'm considering purchasing Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 (Student/teacher version).  I have several questions I was hoping to get answered before I do so.  I'll list them here...
    Does the Student/Teacher version have all the same capabilities and functionality as the standard version of this product?
    The software is being offered as a download by a [reputable] 3rd party vendor.  Can the software be downloaded to more than one computer in my household?  (The same vendor does offer a hard-copy version for a mere $2 more, and I'm wondering if I shouldn't just buy that one to be safe.)
    One of the primary tasks I need to do with my digital photos most often is resize them, in large batches.  Does Lightroom 5 have the capability to do that?
    And finally, is anyone familiar with purchasing Student/Teacher software?  Is my email address with .edu extension enough to satisfy eligibility requirements?
    Thanks in advance to anyone who can answer any or all of these questions!
    -Steve

    Lightroom and Photoshop or two completely different animals in a lot of ways. It isn't a question of either/or, but rather when to use the Lightroom and when to turn to Photoshop.The differences are too great to go into a detailed explanation on a forum such as this. I use both Lightroom and Photoshop. Lightroom is my starting point for all of my work, and I do easily 90% of my work using Lightroom. But sometimes there are things that Lightroom can't do, or Photoshop just does better.
    Without going into a lot of detail, Lightroom does not modify the pixels in your image file. All changes and adjustments are stored in what is called the catalog, which is really a database. When you want copies of those images to share that include all of the Lightroom adjustments you export copies for that purpose. Because of this approach to editing, there are some things that Lightroom cannot do. That's where Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, or some other editor comes into play.
    Looking back, it's easy to start editing using Lightroom. The thing I had a hard time getting my head around at first was the need to export copies of images to share with others, or to send to a lab, etc. As soon as you have that concept ingrained into your workflow I think Lightroom can be a very powerful tool. But it won't do everything, stitching panoramas, removing objects from images, and other such tasks are easier performed with other software. I'm not saying this to discourage you from Lightroom, but rather to encourage you to consider purchasing Lightroom with another product such as Photoshop or Photoshop Elements. There is "interconnection" between the two programs built into Lightroom that makes the process of going back and forth between the two very simple.
    You are probably scratching your head right now wondering what I'm talking about. I apologize. Here is a link to a good set of videos you might want to watch. Then, hopefully it will help you make a better decision.

  • CS5 Student & Teacher Editions & Commercial use (in Australia)

    specifically student editions not educational version.
    I know that in CS4, commercial use is only valid in the USA.
    It looks like the older "education version" is no more in CS5 and is replaced? by "Student & Teacher Edition".
    I have read in the FAQ from the USA Adobe website that this is allowed for commercial use:
    http://www.adobe.com/education/students/studentteacheredition/faq.html
    I have also seen the UK Adobe site that it is allowed for commercial use:
    http://www.adobe.com/uk/education/students/studentteacheredition/faq.html
    the image is broken on this link. is this just a template that has been copied over from the USA website? or is this the official thing?
    I am from Australia and the FAQ has not been updated and still shows information for CS4.
    clicking on FAQ from this link on the australian site of Adobe links to the CS4 FAQ:
    http://www.adobe.com/ap/education/solutions/students/studentteacheredition/
    which is this link: http://www.adobe.com/ap/education/students/studentedition/faq.html
    though after some digging I have found the Australian link to the new FAQ but it also has a broken image and im not exactly sure if its the read thing or just a template again:
    http://www.adobe.com/ap/education/students/studentteacheredition/faq.html
    they all state:
    Can a student or teacher use the Adobe Student and Teacher Edition software for commercial use?
    Yes. Those who purchase this product can use it for personal as well as commercial use.
    I havent found anything about "only in north america" stuff.
    anyway, i would assume that any purchase of CS4 now would have a free upgrade to CS5, right?
    If i purchase CS4 student edition (which here in australia isnt allowed for commercial use) and then get a free upgrade to CS5 (student & teacher edition (i would assume this would be the version CS4 student edition would get for the free upgrade? and assuming that commercial use of CS5 is now allowed in Australia for Student & Teacher Edition) would that mean that I can now use my CS4 student edition that was originally not allowed for commercial use then now be allowed for commercial use when upgraded to CS5 student & teacher edition?
    I hope that makes sense and doesnt confuse too much.
    I also posted up a thread about my eligibility if im a student that has finished classes and waiting to just graduate now. I was wondering if I may still be considered an eligible student to purchase.

    Hi, I think I have found an answer to this but I would still like to have it confirmed by someone from Adobe (please).
    I found a post at http://www.hellophoto.co.nz/showthread.php?3223-Lightroom-3-is-now-out&p=32387#post32387
    Where someone in the forum says they contacted Adobe NZ about this:
    I asked Adobe about the answer to the question about commercial useage - this was the reply I got
    This has caused some confusion as we have recently
    changed the policy around this. You are correct that it used to just be
    in the US however in CS5 we have changed this to be the case for all
    regions.
      In NZ Student and Teacher licenses can be used
    for commercial use both during study and after students or teachers have
    finished/left. I.e. a teacher can do freelance work on the side and
    still be eligible for the student and teacher pricing.
      When the next version of CS is released students
    who have finished their studies or teachers who have left the institute
    can upgrade to a commercial version at the upgrade price.
    We do not require them to upgrade so if they wish
    they can stay on CS5 indefinitely, when they do decide to upgrade they
    will need to purchase a commercial license. We have tiered upgrade
    pricing though so it works out cheaper for them if they do upgrade
    straight away.
      The main condition for Student and teacher is
    that it is installed on a private computer so cannot be installed at an
    institute (school, uni or poly). Instead, educational institutions must
    purchase the Education version.
    Student and teacher licenses are for home use on
    private computers for educational or commercial purposes for that one
    person. There is no serial number in the box and verification is
    required.
      Educational licenses are for use on an education
    institute’s (schools, unis or polys) computers, this is for educational
    use only and does not include commercial use. Single teachers should not be purchasing this type of license, the only people who should be buying educational licenses are educational institutions.
    I teach Photoshop and Illustrator at a Uni in Australia and would really like to be able to tell students if they can use the Student and Teacher editions for commercial use - If the above is true I think this is a very clever move by Adobe but it would be really good if they made it a bit clearer.

  • Serial number is invalid when trying to install Creative Suite 6 (Student/Teacher Edition) on my new mac?

    I have deactivated CS6 on my old laptop, but every time I try to enter the serial number to re-activate it tells me that it is invalid. Is there a period of time that I have to wait before it becomes able to be activated again? It's been about 24 hours. Or could the problem be that it was previously installed on a PC, but now I have upgraded to a mac? Is there any way to fix this? Please help! Thank you!

    Normally a PC serial number is not valid for a Mac version.  I don't know if the following holds for Student/Teacher editions though there should be something similar...
