My CS 6 is asking for a serial number and I already entered it twice. Is it due to me installing Adobe CC?

First off, my computer had to be wiped clean back in early January. All my programs was gone and that included my CS6 program. So I re-installed them. Then one day, I see this Adobe update and it had the Adobe Creative Cloud App. I think I did something stupid and I wanted to tryout not only the Lightroom version, but Photoshop CC as well. My CS6 already had a Photoshop on it. I thought it would be a separated (you know, a separated program on one side and the other one on one side) and not interfere with my CS6 program. Now it's asking for a serial number and whenever I input my serial number (oh by the way, I got CS6 through my school by online; so I got a non disc version) it saying my serial number experied. So here's my questions:
1. If I remove the Adobe CC app off my computer, would the cc versions of my CS6 programs go away?
2. How many time can you installed the non disc version of CS6?
3. Cont. from the first question; If I re install CS6 and uninstalled the CC app would that help?
I know I sound almost computer illiterate, but I need help with this issues. I am college student, and I can't afford one CS6 program, rather alone the whole CS6 and I really need that suite in order to complete my assignments while at home. What do I do?

I bought a new computer and downloaded my lightroom 4 to it. When I installed the program it asked for my serial number and I imputed it. Then it asked for my previous serial number from my original lightroom 3 purchase. Since I upgraded to lightroom 4 I don't have the serial number for the version 3. How do I get the serial number from my 3 version so I can activate my version 4 program

If you have Lightroom 3 still installed, you can get it from there.
If you don't and you have your box/disk, it should be on there.
IF you don't have either of those,and you registered your software, you can log into your Adobe account and retrieve it there.

I don't know how that is possible, since Cloud accounts do not use a serial number... you download & install & activate Cloud programs with your Cloud log in to your paid account

Hello my name is Vittorio. 2 years ago i've bought the CS6 master collection which has worked perfectly until recently.
Now i keep getting the question to enter my serial number and when i do that i get the Invalid reaction. But it is the same number that worked before! What can i do to make CS6 work again?

Hi Vittorio,
We would like to know if you have re-installed your product on this machine. We would also like to know your OS version.
Meanwhile, try:

I have installed Lightroom 5.6 on my Mac, but now it is asking for a serial number, and I only have a serial number from LR 4; how do I find the necessary number?

I have installed Lightroom 5.6 as an upgrade but am unable to proceed because it wants a serial number; how do I attain the needed serial number?

No, I did not have to purchase the upgrade. But here is what I believe my
error was: earlier today, I upgraded to LR 5.6 on my laptop. Then I
upgraded to the same on my desktop, but became confused and installed it
TWICE.
Is this the reason that Adobe is asking me to license Lightroom and to come
up with a serial number? (I have my serial # from LR4, but it does not do.)
Should I try to deactivate LR 5 and then try again to upgrade to it?
Or am I still confused and need to purchase the LR 5.6 upgrade? Thanks for
your help.

Last time i bought iwork retail v9.0.3, then i tried to install it but it kept showing the error message. After i updated my mac, the iwork asked for a serial number and until today i can't use any of the iwork application. How can i solve this problem?

Hoping for a solution since i need to have this iwork to 'work'.. Too many assignments need to be done and i am sick of going to the library to use the desktop there. Thank you =)

I think you have two separate issues & I'll try to answer in the order you need to address them.
First, it seems you have/had the trial of iWork '09 installed. It used to be that to update the trial to the licensed version with the box, you just inserted the DVD & ran the installer to convert the trial to licensed. This has changed with Snow Leopard. You now need to delete the trial & then reinstall from the boxed DVD. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user.
Next, you need to update iWork '09 to 9.0.5. If you're not running the latest versions & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. They must be in the iWork '08 or iWork '09 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '08 or iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '08 or '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.

Logic Pro 9 asking for original serial number

Hi
Having Logic authorization problems.
I just bought a new macbook pro. I cloned the harddrive my old macbook (running Logic 9 in OSX Lion) and then cloned to the new macbook pro.
Whn I try to open Logic Pro 9 - it asks for a serial number. When I enter the serial number from my old laptop
Logic asks for the "previous serial number or my XS key". I never had a XS key - Logic 8 was my first version.
I guess I'll to dig up my old Logic 8 installation guide (who knows where it is these days?)
Why won't the serial number form my macbook work on my new macbook pro?
Any help is much appreciated
thanks

It is Recommended to do a Complete ReInstall from Original Discs when using Pro Apps and not to Migrate them...
If your Logic 9 was an Upgrade from Logic 8 you will need the Serial Numbers for Both 8 & 9...
I would suggest you delete the current version of Logic 9 on your MBP and Reinstall from the Logic 9 Discs...
Then Run Software Update or go Here...
http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1014
to download the Latest Update of Logic for Lion.
I would also recommend doing a Permissions Repair and a Restart after deleting the Migrated Logic 9 and after the Reinstall from Discs...
It may seem like a lot of work... But the Results will be well worth it...
Cheers,

How can i download iWorks onto my macbook without it asking for a serial number?

I downloaded iWorks onto my Macbook, but when I try to open it its asking for a serial number and I can't find the serial number. What can I do?

Then you purchased it from Apple. They will send the complete boxed set with a serial number. Whatever you downloaded is most likely just a trial version.
If by "download" you mean how to install on the computer, then you have an installer DVD. On or in the box you received will be the required serial number. You might see the following:
iWork '09: Serial number not required for installation of retail boxes
iWork '09: Install disc may prompt for serial number
