LR 4 Serial number doesn't work

I have been using my LR4 for the past year and a half or so and it has been working great. Until recently, I tried to open the program and it took me to the Welcome to Adobe LR screen. Then asking to either buy a new serial number or typing in an exisiting one. When I put in my serial number, it comes up with a red cross next to it and the 'next' button at the bottom of the window is inactive. Can a serial number become inactive? I dont' understand why my serial number no longer is accepted.  Please Help!

The issue is a little confusing. Are you saying that you have been using Lightroom 4.4, and that same version of Lightroom is now asking for a serial number that cannot be validated?

  • They sent me a serial number for a windows version of PS Elements when I ordered a mac version.  The serial number doesn't work, not surprisingly, but they don' t seem to care.  I have tried the chat line and have waited for almost a day with no response.

    if you can't find your serial number (http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html), you'll need to contact adobe support (http://www.adobe.com/support/chat/ivrchat.html).

  • TS2565 when updated to 9.1.7 from 9. I need new serial and the old serial number doesn't work. How can i solve this?

    when updated to 9.1.7 from 9. I need new serial and the old serial number doesn't work. How can i solve this?

    There was no new serial needed to update from Logic 9 to 9.1.7
    If your Logic 9 was an upgrade from Logic 8 it may be asking you for your original Logic 8 Full serial first and then your Logic 9 Upgrade serial...
    Otherwise, it's best to call Apple directly and get them to help you...

  • My serial number doesn't work for Illustrator

    First I've downloaded Illustrator trial and finally I bought the mastersuite. But now Illustrator is saying that my serial number doesn't even exist (that serial number works on other programs in the suite). What am I supposed to do ?
    Thanks

    Run the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool and reinstall everything. Also refer to this:
    Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Windows
    Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Mac OS
    Your Illu is still tied to your un out trial and you need to delete the locked license file so it will correctly run with the suite serial.

    Did you just purchase Premiere Elements 12 - online download or installation disc?
    Was the program ever installed by you a while back and are you trying to reinstall it now?
    Are you sure that you are working with the serial number and not a redemption code?

    When working with downloads and installs, please work with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.
    Please review and consider, and then we can decide what next.
    Thank you.

    Get in touch with support. Also make sure you are not trying to input your eligibility verification code, but have converted it to a proper serial on the edu pages.

  • My serial number doesn't work (Lightroom 4, non-cloud)

    I have Lightroom 4  (non-cloud). My serial number suddenly stopped working since the beginning of March. 
    Whenever I start the program, I'm prompted to purchase a new Lightroom, which I don't want to/can't afford). Could someone tell me how to resolve the problem? Thank you.

    At the end of a 30-day LR trial period, LR should give you a choice to enter a serial number or purchase.  What happens if you enter your serial number?
    Where did you purchase the original LR4 serial number from, Adobe, a physical store location, or the internet site not Adobe?

    Hello until my Windows PC was broken, I used there lightroom 5. Now, the new one is a Mac. But I can't use it, because  the serial number does not work. What can I do? (Sorry for my bad english...)

    Unlike subscriptions, perpetual licenses with serial numbers must be swapped. See this link...

  • CS5.5 serial number doesn't work

    4 months ago I installed in my PC the CS5.5
    by dialing the serial number of the product I purchased
    in the boxes of the splash screen of a trial version.
    All the programs of the CS have been installed as purchased products
    except for Fireworks (but I didn't find it out until now).
    Now I need to use it and I am trying to install it from the trial version
    (which I downloaded few months ago but had never launched)
    by dialing the CS5.5 serial number I purchased but it doesn’t work.
    I dialog says that my serial number is not valid for the product I am trying to install.
    What is wrong with the license I purchased?

    This is a user to user forum, Annaspe. Have you contacted Adobe support yet?

  • My serial number doesn't work. please help me

    Both are Windows PC, that's correct!
    Maybe the error is because I'm having a student version?
    Could that be the problem?
    Yes, I'm giving the same serial number.
    When I do it on my laptop the error that disappear is:
    The serial number is not valid for this product

  • My serial number doesn't work

    Hi! About a year ago I bought a used computer with CS5 Master Collection (pretty much the only reason I bought is was because of that program.) The program was newly installed so I registered it to my Adobe ID. Now that computer is about to give up and I would like to install it on my new computer but I can't make it work. When I put in the serial number I get a message telling me that the serial number isn't valid for that product, but that can't be right. CS5 is the only product I've registered and under "My products" on my Adobe ID it says Master Collection, version 5. The only thing I can think about is that it could be a school licence, as I bought it from a school. If so is it still possible to make it work or is it no longer possible since the computer doesn't belong to the school anymore?

  • Trial serial number doesn't work.

    Just downloaded a trial of Aperture 3.0.3, and got emailed the serial number.
    Click to install, enter my name and the supplied serial number, but the installer just says "The serial number you entered is not valid." and will not proceed.
    I've double and triple checked, the number is exactly as per the email, with upper case, no confusion between letters and numbers, but it doesn't work.
    Any ideas?

    Thanks.
    Any suggestions how to contact them? There's no contact details on the email, and the email is from a "no-reply" address, and searching on their Support section brought me to here - 's why I thought I'd ask here

  • I've just purchased creative cloud but the serial number doesn't work. What can I do?

    I'm just going round in circles on this website... The serial number associated with my purchase of creative cloud doesn't work. Different pages are saying different things and are sending me round in circles. Have I just been conned out of £500? Help me please someone...

    See if the following help document leads to a solution:

    If you purchased thru the Adobe web site then you are not being conned.  You just might need to help to get you thru.
