Mac/win version not applicable?

The serial number i was emailed does not get validated. So i'm stuck and cannot use the product i payed for.
It's on a mac running on 10.8.5
Any ideas?

this user seems to have the same issue:
Can't validate serial number

    Please help.

    Sounds like you may have a hardware problem since it won't read from DVD, and it is only a year and a half old.  Hopefully all it is, is bad RAM*:

  • Mac OS Version not reported correctly in ARD

    Using ARD admin 3.7.2 the screen displays Mac OS Version as 10.9.2 but on the computer "About this Mac" clearly shows OSX 10.9.3.
    Other computers that are running 10.9.3 show correctly.  I have re-scanned but no change.  Deleted computer from "All Computers" and re-scanned, no change.
    Why are certain computers not reporting their current Mac OS Version correctly?

    I discovered that if I did the "Upgrade Client Software", the Mac OS Version shows correctly now.  The client software was already 3.7.1 but apparently re-installing it fixed the problem.

  • Why is the download "Not applicable" for my online purchase of Adobe Captivate 8 Student and Teacher Edition for Mac?

    I purchased “Adobe Captivate 8 Student and Teacher Edition” for Mac on 7/31/14 and it is now 12/17/14 (only 5 months later) but it is showing as “Not applicable” when I go to download (maybe re-download) the program. I understood that I would be able to use the application on 2 computers, one at home and one at work. I think I’ve downloaded the program at home one time but have yet to install and activate it. I now have a new computer at work that can support that program and want to install the program on my office computer, but cannot download it again. Please advise.

    It seems like that you have purchased a subscription for Captivate 8. In subscription you do not require any serial number. Subscriptions are activated on the basis of your Adobe Id. When user will install Captivate he has to sign in with the same Adobe Id under which they bought subscription. It will get activated after successful sign in during the installation.
    As far as the installer is concern there is no difference in the trial version installer or purchased version installer. The installer is same for trial and purchased copy. All user needs to do is sign in during the installation if it is a subscription or use his serial number if it is a perpetual license or volume license.
    You may download the trial version from the link mentioned above and then use your Adobe Id to activate the subscription.
    Please let me know in case you need any further information.
    Regards,
    Rajeev.

    I talked to your guys yesterday about installing correct version of Lightroom 5 which I legally owned, and your guy provided me a download link (different from Creative cloud account), but somehow it was for Windows version not for Mac version. I would very much like to download a Mac version, so please send my correct web link. By the way my s. number for Lightroom 5 up is [removed], and I also have s.number for 4 up and 3 full.

    The latest non-CC version of LR 5 is 5.7.1 and download links are available on the Adobe Updates page:
    http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/
    Both Mac and Win links are there.
    If you are asking for a LR 5 CC link, which wouldn't require a serial number, please be more clear about that.

  • Flash CS3 Mac/Win Projector Publishing - Using older version of Flash

    Hi,
    How can I use an older version of Flash player when publishing to Man/Win Projector? The Properties says 'Player: 7' but when I publish to Mac/Win (.app/.exe) the file says it uses Flash player 9 (9.0.115.0)!
    One of our clients are having issues with a project published this way - on autoplay they get a white screen instead of the program screen and after they update Flash on their computer, the application (Projector) works. What's the issue?
    This is what I have on my first frame (using AS2), is any of this suspect to older versions of Flash? :
    <code as2>
    fscommand("fullscreen", true);
    fscommand("allowscale", false);
            trace("This is a " + System.capabilities.os + " system.");
    var os:String = System.capabilities.os.substr(0, 3);
            if (os == "Win") {
              trace("Windows-specific code goes here");
            } else if (os == "Mac") {
              trace("Mac-specific code goes here");
            } else {
              trace("Must be Unix or Linux"); 
    var videoStartNumber:Number =0;
    var originalMenu:Number = 1;
    _root.menu1_1.onRelease = function() {videoStartNumber = 1; gotoAndPlay(5);}
    _root.menu1_2.onRelease = function() {originalMenu = 3; gotoAndPlay(3);}
    _root.menu1_3.onRelease = function() {originalMenu = 4; gotoAndPlay(4);}
    _root.menu1_4.onRelease = function() {gotoAndPlay(2);}
    _root.exitButton.onRelease = function() {fscommand("quit");}
    stop();
    </code as2>
    But even if something on this project wouldn't work on an older version than 9.0.115.0 then it shouldn't matter as the Projector will always use the embedded Flash player, not the player installed on the computer, right?
    Really would appreciate any help.
    Thanks!
    PJ

    Please, can someone help me?
    Our client is getting frustrated and I'm out of ideas as to what's wrong with the Projector executable! Why would it give white screen on launch on some systems and not on others?
    Sincerely,
    PJ Palomaki

  • Downloading Mac version and Getting Win version of paid for elements 10

    The link provided above will take you to the steps to open your account and access the downloads you have available.  This will allow you to verify that you do not have the Mac download available to you within your account already.

  • Wanting to deactivate PS Elements on Mac and transfer program to a friend. Is it OK to download a trial to my friend's Mac and use my serial number.  Also is the serial number the same for Mac and Win versions?  Many thanks.

    Wanting to deactivate PS Elements on Mac and transfer program to a friend. Is it OK to download a trial to my friend's Mac and use my serial number.  Also is the serial number the same for Mac and Win versions?  Many thanks.

    Yes it should work transferring PSE10 from Mac to Mac. There is a download link below for PSE10, which your friend could use. There is a formal licence transfer process but it’s not necessary for your friend to register the product (activation is sufficient) although he couldn’t benefit from future upgrade pricing without registration. Serial numbers typically can only be registered one time.
    Boxed versions of PSE are normally multi-platform with disks for both Windows and Mac; so the serial number is the same. Downloads have tended to be single platform only although I believe the current version PSE12 will work on both Windows and Mac with the same serial number – boxed or download.

  • How can I get all photos from iPhoto to automatically back up to iCloud from my Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 operating system.  Not enough memory to upgrade.

    How can I get all photos from iPhoto to automatically back up to iCloud from my Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 operating system.  Not enough memory to upgrade.

    You can't.  iCloud is not for general file backup from a Mac. It's for backup up and syncing data between mobile devices and and Macs and  The following is from this Apple document: iCloud: Backup and restore overview.
    iCloud automatically backs up the most important data on your (mobile) device using iOS 5 or later. Once you have enabled Backup on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch .....
    What is backed up
    You get unlimited free storage for:
    Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and books
    Notes: Backup of purchased music is not available in all countries. Backups of purchased movies and TV shows are U.S. only. Previous purchases may not be restored if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud. These movies will indicate that they are not available in iTunes in the Cloud on their product details page in the iTunes Store. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    You get 5 GB of free iCloud storage for:
    Photos and videos in the Camera Roll
    Device settings (for example: Phone Favorites, Wallpaper, and Mail, Contacts, Calendar accounts)
    App data
    Home screen and app organization
    Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS)
    Ringtones
    Visual Voicemails
    But not from a Mac.  If you want to backup your photos and other important files I suggest you get an external hard drive and use  it with Time Machine.
