Need help retrieving serial number, please.

I made a thread about this last night but it must have been deleted for some reason?
     So I got Adobe Premiere Elements 11 for christmas and had it installed on my student laptop.  When I graduated this last spring I got a new laptop and didn't think anything of it.  Last night I went to install Premiere on my new laptop and upon install it asked for my serial number.  I did not write it down and I do not have my old laptop to retrieve it.  I tired typing in the redemption code on the Adobe site but it just says that the code is invalid (obviously because it has already been redeemed).  I also did not register this product so if I log in to Adobe and go to "My Products" it is not in there.  Can someone please help me out here!  I really need this program to work.  There has got to be a way to retrieve this serial number.  There has got to be a data base someone can look in?  Please help!
Thank you,
-Trent

So as long as I have this redemption code I should still be able to link it to my serial number.  I just need to get in contact with Adobe themselves.
I am just speculating here, as John T. is, as well, but your experience, regarding the typing in of that Redemption Code, on the supplied Web site, seems to be a "one-time deal." That seems to be borne out by your experience.
Now, it might (speculation again, as I have never had an educational version of any Adobe product) be useful to have that Redemption Code, when talking to Adobe Customer Support (not Technical Support), as they might be able to track backward, and use that to find your S/N. I would try Live Chat first, BUT keep the idea of a direct telephone call, as "Plan B."
Unfortunately, no one here works for Adobe - we are but mere users, and mostly users with a regular PrE license, and not an academic license. When it comes to academic license questions, I always go to John T. Smith, as he was in a university system, and has several academic licenses in his history. He's my "go-to guy" for any academic version questions, 'cause he's "been there - done that." However, and even with his vast knowledge, he is powerless to help you, beyond suggestions. Only Adobe can do that.
Please let us know if Adobe Customer Support (either Live Chat, or via telephone) was able to help you, as you will be educating us all.
Good luck, and please do followup on this thread, as we can all benefit.
Hunt
PS - I will second John T's suggestion of making copies of everything, should there be a problem in the future. For instance, I have my S/N for every version of Photoshop one a label on the media (mine go back to diskettes), on the box (if I still have that) and one the front and also first page of the manual (they used to have nicely printed manuals, back several versions). I could give you my S/N for version 2.5, through CS 6, even though the S/N format changed three times over the decades. Make copies.

  • I need help activating serial number on a new computer after deactivation from an old computer

    I deactivated and checked the box for remove entire product from my old computer and now the serial number is saying it is not valid when I try to use it on my new computer even after registering it, any ideas?

    I am beginning to think that this is the issue - i have downloaded the CC version - why are they not the same serial number. ALSO Adobe is really hard to navigate - i can't even find the stand alone version to download.
    The CC version doesn't use a serial number. Is activated with your Adobe ID and password. And it's all tied to your account being paid current. Other than that, the programs are the same. You have been provided the link to the standalone installation in the comment above this one.

  • Need to retrieve serial number

    How can i see the serial number of the device that was used to sign in to my icloud account

    You can find the Serial Number if you have done a backup in iTunes by going to iTunes on your computer, click on iTunes in the top menu bar, then Preferences>Devices, and hover over the device where it is listed in the backups. The Serial number will show in a box as you hover over the device name.
    You can also go to My Support Profile, and if you registered your device there when you got it, you will see it listed there as well:
    https://supportprofile.apple.com/
    The Serial Number would also be on the original packaging that the device came in.

    We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple - I've asked the hosts to remove your iPod's serial number address from your post.
    Only you can activate your iPod by typing in your id and password, or you can remove a device from your account via http://icloud.com . If you can't remember your account id then do you have any of its downloads on your computer's iTunes : Recovering a forgotten iTunes Store account name ? If not then you could try http://iforgot.apple.com . You can also reset your password via the 'iforgot' site, or you can contact Support in your country and they should be able to reset your password (as long as you can prove your id and that it's your account) : Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security
    iOS 7 and activation lock : iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7
    What if I forget my Apple ID password?
    If you forget your password, you can reset it at My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com) or by contacting Apple Support and verifying your identity. Once your password has been reset, it will work normally with Find My iPhone and Activation Lock.
    If you forget your password and cannot reset it, you will lose access to your Apple ID and may be unable to use or reactivate your device. To help prevent this, visit My Apple ID periodically to review and update your account information.

  • Need Help, retrieving a combo boxes actual/print/visible value instead of the export value.

    Hello,
    I need help, retrieving a combo boxes actual value, not the export value.
    I have a combo box with multiple options to select from.
    each of those selections has a separate export value, which is in the form of a number, which I use to calculate dates in a separate field.
    However, I have another field that i want to retrieve the, users selected value, which is text, from the combo box instead of the export value.
    Is there an easy way to do this.
    This is what I am currently using. But like I said the results are that I retrieve the export value and not the selected text value.
    event.value = this.getField("_Arugula").valueAsString;
    Thanks

    First get the currentValueIndices property of the combo box and use it with the getItemAt field method to return (what I call) the display value. Something like:
    var f = getField("combo1");
    var display_value = f.getItemAt(f.currentValueIndices, false);
    See the documentation for more information

  • Need help retrieving my photoshop elements 2.0 due to virus scan removing it

    need help retrieving my photoshop elements 2.0 due to virus scan removing it - i have everything removed from scan in quarantine but have no idea which  one is what i need to reverse and allow my photoshop elements 2.0 (old version, I know, but I love it) to work again

    Use the anti-virus program to reverse everything it quarantined and in future ensure the anti-virus program settings let you check and decide what items to quarantine and what to ignore. Letting an anti-virus program quarantine things automatically is a recipe for disaster.
    You could also check if you have a System Restore point from before the anti-virus run.

  • Replaced harddrive after it crashed-I need a new serial number. have redemption code

    I replaced my harddrive on my laptop using windows 7. I lost abobe photo lightroom 5. I have my disk, redemption codes, id, and pass word. I need a new serial number to reinstall.

    You don't need a new serial number, you need  your previous serial number to use, again.  You can only use the redemption code, once, and need to have recorded your serial number, somewhere.
    The usual place to get your old serial number back is by logging into www.adobe.com and clicking Manage account then a few more clicks into your product lists and you'll see all the serial number for your registered products.
    If you never registered your LR copy with Adobe then they won't have your serial number.  I don't know if there's a way to get it back or not.  You can try doing the help and support option on adobe.com and get to where you Still Need Help and do the Chat option and see if they have your old serial number stored somewhere even if you never registered it.

  • Do I need a new serial number to move css5 to mac?

    I changed to a Mac From Windows. I tried to install on mac but the serial number is not correct for the product. Do I need a new serial number?

    Frmontoy1 please be aware that it is not possible to request a platform swap for Creative Suite 5.  Platform swaps can only be requested for the current version of an Adobe Creative Software title.
    If you wish to use Adobe Creative software on Mac OS then I would recommend either upgrading to Creative Suite 6 or obtaining a Creative Cloud membership.  You can purchase an upgrade for Creative Suite 6 at https://www.adobe.com/products/catalog/cs6._sl_id-contentfilter_sl_catalog_sl_software_sl_ creativesuite6.html.
    You can also currently qualify for a special price on a Creative Cloud membership since you own Creative Suite 5.  You can find more details https://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/buying-guide.html.  Please also be aware that a Creative Cloud or point product subscription will allow you to install the Adobe Creative software on both Mac OS and Windows.

  • Can't retrieve serial number

    Purchased CS6 as stand-alone program, tried to retrieve serial number and was told I didn't need one. I DO NOT WANT Cloud!

    I guess that's something new; I didn't realize Adobe changed to some kind of online serial number retrieval process - assuming that box is legitimate.  First I've heard of online serial number retrieval.
    I wish you the best of luck with returning an opened software box to BestBuy.  I've run afoul of their restrictive return policies before and as a result I've stopped doing business with them.  Make sure you take along screen prints showing the failures you experienced.
    This gives you another opportunity to consider that at $9.99 a month for the Photographer's bundle you could have a LOT of months of Creative Cloud subscrioption for the price of that $700 software (almost 6 years by my count, and you don't have to pay it all up front).  I don't know about you, but I have no idea whether computers/operating systems 6 years from now will even be able to run Photoshop CS6 software purchased this year.  Just a thought.
