LR 30 day trial purchased education version & activation code not working

Hello
I purchased a iMac 5K and had been using Aperture on my old machine. Felt this was a good time to change to LR 5.
Downloaded the 30 day trial and decided yes I was very happy the software. I purchased the education version and received my code via email. This code is not being accepted by LR 5.7.1.
Is the download version different to the one I have purchased?
Do I need to delete the version I have installed and then use the disk provided? If that is the case can I reload all my past 2 weeks changes to LR?
Many thanks for your help.

You’re not by any chance running the creative cloud version of LR are you?
The CC download can only be validated by subscription, not with a serial number.
If so, send it to the trash and use this download link for v 5.7.1; then enter your serial number.

N.B you can use your DVD disk if preferred but you will need to update via the help menu to 5.7.1 after installation.
Your photos and catalog won't be affected.

  • Activation code not working

    I own a version of Adobe Photoshop CS2. Sadly a little while ago my PC murdered itself with a Mother Board malfunction (or something of that nature) and the computer had to be tossed. Now that I have a new PC I'm trying to reinstall Photoshop but it is complaining the serial number is invalid.
    Tech support, or whoever I was transferred to on the phone, said the serial number was accurate and should be working. The only thing they could discern as an issue was the operating system, which went from Windows XP to Windows 7.
    Naturally they tried to tell me it was a compatibility issue but I get no such error message and the program works perfectly when you use the trial version.
    But because I've been asked like 10 times today, no I don't have a trial version. I have the full version which allows a trial if you are missing the code. The version I have was purchased as a CD, not a download and I have the serial number on the back of the CD case. My CS2 is an upgrade from Photoshop 5.5, which I also have in front of me with it's activation code. I was told I'd need to type in 5.5's code after getting passed the CS2 activation window, but it's CS2 that's bogging me down and being pragmatic.
    I'd like to know how to get the program working. Being told CS2's compatibility issue lies in the acceptance of the serial code is absolutely frustrating. I could understand if the program didn't work at all, but it does. Perfectly. It just won't take my code no matter how many times I type it in and double, triple and quadruple check that I put it in right.
    The exact error I'm getting is "You must enter a valid serial number before activating online or viewing activation options. Please check your serial number and re-enter it, or click the Purchase button to buy a copy of this product."

    You are running an application on a system for which it was never designed.  Things are changing re: security, and Photoshop CS2 has no knowledge of that.
    Try this:
    Either run Photoshop "As Administrator", or turn off Windows UAC on your entire system (with required reboot) then run it.
    If you DO disable UAC, you might want to read up on what UAC does for you (running your apps with only user privileges, redirecting some disk operations, etc.) and understand the benefits/risks before choosing to leave it disabled.

  • Macromedia Flash Professional 8 trial, english windows version. Download not working?

    Is anyone else having this issue? Everytime I try to click the download button on the windows english version of the flash 8 trial it does nothing. When clicked it tries to load something, but doesn't end up doing anything. I've tried using different browsers (I use firefox mainly) but it still does the same thing. Can anyone help?

    Although it seem legitimate, I think it is mainly for historical purposes - maybe an orphan page :-). You should use the following link:
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=flash
    in order to download the software. The other links to flashbasic, a version of the software that isn't used anymore. If you are trying to get an old version in order to publish to an older version of the player, you shouldn't have any problems with the new version. You can set the target player under File > Publish Settings ... in the program.

    Hello this is happening to us also (minus the Bluetooth speaker).  We can't figure out what is causing the data usage.  I turned off mobile data as soon s I activated the device, and got the message that unless I am connected to WiFi.....(that is exactly what I wanted). We watched Netflix for about three hours, then the alerts started.  Like you we have many devices connected and never used over 2GB now all of a sudden we have used it in a matter of hours.  My husband called Verizon  and got the usual doubting Thomas response.  I understand that they don't know my device settings.  So over the phone we check all the settings and turned  off every possible culprit eating up the data and end the call.  By now I have purchased another gig for the month!  Assured we are NOT using mobile data, we continue on the IE path to bliss.  HA!  A few hours later I check the mobile data usage on the Verizon website and that darn thing is still using data.  After two more phone calls and two VERY uneventful trips to the local store we were told to take out the sim card.  This has stopped the data usage, but it defeats the purpose of having the data plan.  I could have just stuck with my Surface.  Verizon sent us a new sim card.  Its been installed and I have set my homepage to Verizon mobile data usage (just kidding) but I am on that site a lot.   I am surprised at the number of complaints about this device.  When we called the Verizon support acted as though this was the first time they had heard about this.   Loved your post, you should write for a living.

  • HT2188 iPad 1 requested activation after being low on power. Activation does not work.

    Hi
    My iPad 1 requested activation after being low on power. Activation does not work so I have tried to restore it from iTunes.  this progresses but after rebooting, it gets to the activation process for a few minutes and re-boots again - in a loop now. on ios6, not 7. help please?
    I also looked at trying to do a manual install of firmware via iTunes but I do not know the version of firmware or how to find it out - so really stuck!
    Thanks

    I pulled my unit out of the dock - powered up and the display goes blank (if you look carefully you can see the bios boot screen, then black, then you can see the backlight turn off.
    I plugged in the USB monitor and boom - I could log in.
    Once Logged in I could see that windows still thinks it has some of the monitors from the dock, and the internal display is set to disable.
    So the issue is the detection / setup of monitors in/out of the dock.
    I've done about all I can do for dubugging, I hope lenovo can pick up from here. if not I'll have to call lenovo support.

    When I run these search filters I get results from my AD. When IdM runs the search they are coming back blank. Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Chris

    If you have changed environments... or for some other reason, your USN number on the AD resource could be lower than the number passed in the query.
    Manually edit a user in AD, and then check the USN number of the object. See if it is lower then the query is passing. If so, you can manually edit the IAPI_ResourceName configuration object and alter the USN number passed in the query.

  • Pick activity is not working properly while creating two or more file adapt

    Hi,
    pick activity is not working properly while creating two or more file adapter for bpel process.
    bpel process compiled and deployed succesfully but while observing the wsdl file of deployed process you can find only one file adapter. so it polls only from that location.
    can anybody help on over this? or it's limitation of jdev to use only one file adapter at time while using Pick.
    Thanks

    Does anybody tried this?
