My CS2 serial number is not being accepted

Hi Jeff:  back again, unfortunately.
I've just replaced my PC, moving to Windows 7 since XP will no longer be supported.
Tried to instal CS 2 but ther serial number I have is not accepted.  Do I need to download and start again, please?
Regards

Excellent Tattiehowker it sounds like progress is being made towards a solution!  I wondered if you would end up getting this error and actually reviewed Invalid user name, organization, or serial number error | Production Studio applications (Windows) - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/error-user-name-organization-or.html prior to providing the suggestions regarding renaming the directories.  Please try applying the steps offered in the document.

    I need help with my serial number.  I downloaded soundbooth cs3 to restore my downloaded purchase, but my serial number is not being accepted.  I have 16 more days to resolve this.  I don't need tech support, I just need the software I purchased to work for me.  That's not to much to ask, is it?  Can anyone from adobe help me please?

  • Trying to download lion, but serial number is not being accepted what can i do?

    Im trying to download Lion to a new June 23rd macbook with an up to date Snow Leopard system, but apple doesnt accept my serial number.   What else can I do?

    What are you capturing from?  You may not hear the auido as it's captured but it will be there.  After it's captured can you see the audio waveforms? Do the audio meters move when you play the clip?  If so then go to "View" then "Audio Playback"  and set it to 'Built-in Output" if you're monitoring audio through the computer.

  • What a nightmare, Serial Number is not being accepted. try the numbers on the discs, Yes I legally bought and own it,  and it won't accept it.

    Final Cut Studio, I just got a new imac and transfered contents from prior computer. And Final Cut Studio opens to the licesning window, and it won't accept the SN. It was workign on prior computer fine.  But it will not accept the upgrade, or orginal SN.  What is a person to do? How can a consumer use the software that is blocked that they legally paid for because it is not recogining the SN, yes it's spelled correctly and it's not a zero versus an "0". 

    Thanks, but the conditions on that page are very unrealstic. The Customer as to find a reciept from 3 years ago? With Purchase Date and invoice, heck have you been to apple store, oh we can just email the receipt to you. Well how do you search that years later, Not an option! So that doesn't work.
    Apple Store onlne, Does not list software past 18months on their website. How inconvenient.  So that option is null too.  I did register it so I will try and call the Apple Sales Support tomorrow, as they are not open currently.  A lot of work to get a product to work that is legally purchased. This is why piracy so attractive.   Because when You play by the rules and buy software and many many hoops to jump through. We shall see but I am sure the phone number will ask, "oh did you buy some apple support for this?" well we can't help you unless you pay. 
    The solution is to have the software be able to be installed with valid software, and/or have an online access that shows your SN, and allows you to cancel or regenerate a code.
    Thanks,
    Jason

  • My serial number is not being validated

    The serial number is C02G50EDDRJL.  It is printed on the back of the ocmputer and is not being accepted as validated to get on support chat.

    While Apple runs and maintains these forums, they are user to user, so you are very unlikely to get a response from an Apple employee here.
    Try contacting Apple Support.

  • My sim serial number is not being recognised. What should I do?

    I have just purchased an iPhone 5s and am transferring my number over to a nano sim. However my sim serial number was not recognised after several attempts and now the 4 digit code is not bbeing sent through when I enter my number. Any help would be appreciated!

    Not sure what you mean by "reboot".
    Have you tried resetting your iPad?
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
    No data will be lost.

  • My Serial Number won't be accepted when I try to download Premiere Elements 13?

    I have a MacBook Pro Laptop and I recently purchased Premiere Elements 13 as I need it for School and Work however when i get to the final stages of downloading, my serial number isn't being accepted and I have tried many methods of downloading! IF anyone has had the same or similar issues please let me know! I paid a lot for this and I really need the program.

    travisw
    Let us see if we can resolve this issue...
    Let us go through the typical drill....
    1. Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
    2. Are you working with a pen and tablet instead of a mouse?
    3. Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed and are you running the programs as administrator?
    4. Is your video card/graphics card driver up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card?
    5. Are you running the program with an active Internet connection? What computer browser are you using for the download
    of replacement installation files? Have you tried another for the download - such as Internet Explorer or Firefox?
    Suggestions
    1. Uninstall the program the typical Control Panel way
    2. Do a free ccleaner run through (regular and registry cleaning parts) to get rid of leftovers from incomplete installs/reinstalls
    CCleaner - Download
    3. Install the Premiere Elements 13 tryout from the following web site and insert your purchased serial number in them during
    installation.
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 Direct Download Links, Premiere too | ProDesignTools
    4. Install the 13.1 Update from an opened project's Help Menu/Updates.
    5. If all else fails, try creating a new user account with administrative privileges and installing and trying to run Premiere Elements 13 from there.
    If you check the Event Viewer/Windows Logs and its Application, do you see any description for the cause of the problems on the dates when
    the problem presented?
    Any questions or need clarification on the above, please do not hesitate to ask.
    Thank you.

  • Reloading CS5 upgrade using CS2 serial number

    Several years ago I upgraded from Photoshop CS2 to CS5.  I recently had to have my computer reformatted.  When I have tried to reload my CS5 upgrade using the CS2 serial number it isn't accepted.  I went to the Adobe site and downloaded CS2 but I still can't reload my CS5 disk.  From Adobe it seems I need a code to unlock the CS2 activation but I can't seem to get help this way.  Now what do I do?

    Now what do I do?
    No need to -re-install CS2 at all.
    Just install the CS5 upgrade (the upgrade contains the full program code), enter your CS5 upgrade serial number then enter your CS2 serial number when prompted.

  • My serial number is not accepted, how to proceed  (my card says: ActivationCode, should I have a separate serial number?)

    My serial number is not accepted, how to proceed  (my card says: ActivationCode, should I have a separate serial number?)

    Hi, back again,    
    Sorry for not responding to the previous remarks.
    Here is the case: I bought a license in the university shop, (surfspot.nl) with code.
    In the past I was able to work with an installed version, but on my new computer I tried to reinstall without success. Luckily I was helped with the trial period, so that is why I didn't bother to get back to the reactions ( impolite indeed  - sorry)
    I have bought the Adobe CS6 Master Collection Combi Windows.
    When I try to register the product under my (current) ADOBE id, it shows me the ancient Photoshop Elements product I registered way back in 2009, but when I try to add the CS6 Master Collection it shows that the product is already registered.
    Did I register with a different email address?? I cannot think of one ( i tried a couple)
    Any help would be welcome.
    regards
    Rob
