Logic pro 8 won´t accept my serial after migration to macintel

I bought and installed the update from logic 7 to 8. No problems. But after migration to a mac pro logic asks me for my serial and won´t accept it.
What can i do - i have proof that i bought the program but can´t use it...someone said its because of the missing xs key - but i thought you don´t need that any more for 8? It does not ask for the old XS key (wich i got rid of after i worked with Logic 8)
Any suggestions?

Yes, you need your XS key to install because it qualifies your upgrade version.
Once you've installed, you don't need the dongle to run Logic. This is quite clear in the install docs.

  • Logic Pro 9 won't recognize my serial key

    hey there,
    so i used to have Logic Pro 9 installed on my Macbook, but my Macbook died and I've recently had to buy a new one.
    when I tried to re-install the program, the key provided on the back of 'Installing Logic Pro' isn't being recognized by the software as a legitimate key.
    how am i supposed to convince the software that I'm using my own key once again? i've re-entered it a number of times and it seems to be telling me i'm using an illegitimate key. it doesn't seem fair that because my previous Macbook died that I have to go and spend another $500 on Logic Pro, but that seems to be how the situation is crystallizing.
    frustratingly too, I'm not sure how anyone here would be able to help; ideally I would be able to speak to a real person and provide the proper documentation to prove that I have purchased the software and am trying to re-install it.. is there a number to call? do I have to find an Apple Store to help this problem?
    cheers and thanks in advance,
    Sefed Jones

    Make sure that the version you had originally wasn't in fact Logic 9 Upgrade, in which case you need to enter your Logic 8 serial first....
    Secondly, make sure you are typing the serial correctly.. ensuring all zeros are zeros and not "o" ones are ones and not "i" or l" and so on...
    Finally if you cannot resolve this issue simply call Apple... Go to their website and look at the support pages for which number to call (It varies depending on the country you reside in)
    The page you need for the phone numbers is;

  • Apple won't accept my serial number

    Hi,
    I just bought a new laptop pro. Tried to do an atomatic upgrade to Mountain Lion. Submitted my receipt as required which includes the correct serial number. Keep receiving automated emails telling me that the 'part number is missing'. Have checked the receipt against the serial number onthe machine. It is correct. Now I discover that the Apple web site won't accept my serial number either. I can't get a sensible, human response from Apple via eamil and can't organise a call back becuse you need to have a serial number to do this ... any suggestions??

    Call your country's Apple tech support and ask to be transferred over to Customer Relations.

  • Trying to update final cut, won't accept my serial number

    WHAT THE--??
    My copy of Final Cut is legit, but I'm running 5.1.4. I need to update, but it won't accept the serial number. The version isn't originally registered to me (someone gave me one of their installs), but my copy is. Has this happened to anybody else?

    apologies,
    I have gone on the FCP update page on the apple website. It asks for the serial number: when I enter the serial number that is displayed on the "about final cut pro" window, I am told that the serial number does not exist. This has happened at least a half dozen times. I have entered it exactly. I am running 5.1.4.

  • Have Adobe Standard CS 5 (Student), and would like to upgrade to Creative Cloud (Non-Student) - won't accept my serial number for special pricing for existing users

    I currently use Adobe Standard CS 5. It was bought with the Education discount. I would like to upgrade to Creative Cloud and see that they have special pricing for existing customers that use past versions of Creative Suite. I am no longer in Education, so I will have to buy a full version. This is fine, but it won't accept my serial number for the discounted pricing. Is there something else I should be doing?

  • Photoshop Elements 6 won't accept my serial number... How do I fix this?

        I had to uninstall and reinstall Photoshop elements 6 to my Windows 7 computer because the brushes were glitching on me, and now it won't accept my serial number to register it to my computer. I received it from a bundle package when I installed my tablet back in 2008ish. The warning is "A problem was encountered while trying to send information over the Internet". I have retyped it several times to make sure I put the right number without any luck either.

  • PS CS6 won't accept my serial number

    I've downloaded and installed PS CS6 but it won't accept my serial number, whether I manually type it or copy it from my Adobe account page.  I get an error message saying "Serial Number you provided is valid, but a qualifying product could not be found on this computer."  Am I going to have to download and install PS CS5 first to allow me to install CS6?

    Solved my own problem.  I just needed to enter the CS5 serial number.

  • Won't accept my Serial number PSE11

    I'm trying to install PSE11 on a Windows XP machine.  It won't accept the serial number, I'm sure there is no typo.
    What do I do now?
    Carl

    My copy of PSE11 was already registered but I have installed it on two computers.  I thought that you could have it on 3 if you only used it one at a time.  I see that it is 2, so that is my problem.  I am trying to get an old program to work on an XP computer which will not run on my Windows 8.  The program requires that a copy of photoshop be available on the XP computer. I'll try to install a trial version on the XP so that I can run this test.
    Thanks for your help.
