Photoshop CS4 Extended - license has expired?

Hi.
I have Photoshop CS4 Extended on my computer, that is, since last night.
When I would go to it now writes the license expires, but I might go to Bridge CS4.
Could it have anything to do with I am depressed, I would not register now?
Sincerely, Philip.

If its original version, try this:
1)      Set the computer clock back to May 31, 2009.
2)      Launch Photoshop.
3)      Go to Help->Deactivate, select ERASE THIS SERIAL NUMBER.
4)      Quit the application.
5)      Change the date of the computer back to the current date.
6)      Launch the application.
7)      Enter the CS4 serial number from your purchased product.
If its not an original product, will not work.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended - Trial Version Expired

    Can someone help me please. I have searched the forums but I cannot find a solution.
    I installed the Photoshop CS4 extended trial which expired a few weeks ago. In the meantime I have purchased a copy of Photoshop CS4 (Standard not Extended). I completed removed the trial but I am unable to installed the purchased copy. I am getting the trial expired serial input screen.
    I have also tried the unistall with REVO but this has not made any difference.
    I have tried to use the Adobe cleanup but I dont think its worked properly. I am running Windows 7 Operating System.
    I have uninstalled/installed photoshop 5 times now and its driving me mad

    There is no problem such as you describe.  If you buy a legitimate standard edition license, you can enter that serial number and the trial version will be activated as the standard edition.
    Where did you get this copy of Photoshop CS4?
    If not directly from Adobe, there's a chance you were scammed and your serial number isn't valid at all.  Photoshop is heavily pirated.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended, owned for ages, licensing for this product has expired? Was using it two months ago.

    Hello,
    I have been trying to get Adobe's help for over a month now. I've been on the phone twice to them, opened up three seperate cases and still arrived at no solution. I was bought Photoshop CS4 Extended awhile ago and use it for my studies (I'm an art student). Two months ago my harddrive on my computer failed and I had to have a new laptop. I went to reinstall Photoshop and "Licensing for this product has expired" comes up. I've uninstalled, inreinstalled many times and used Microsoft Fix It Programme for uninstalling to make sure all the files are gone.
    Surfing the forums I learned that there should be a folder with back up and Adobe PCD but I don't have that folder at all. The serial number I use is my original serial number that I know works and adobe have even said it's a technical error. What do I do? College starts again in two weeks and I don't have the programme I use for it!

    Try the License Repair Tool Adobe - Adobe Licensing Repair Tool
    Other suggestions if this doesn't work: Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Windows
    Also if you must uninstall, use the Adobe CS Cleaner tool, not the Microsoft one. Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

  • When launching Photoshop CS4 Extended it says "License Expired"

    Can anyone help me with this problem? I downloaded a trial version of Photoshop CS4 extended here in adobe.com but when i tried to launch it, it says "Licensing for this product has expired."
    I don't know why this is happening. This happened twice already. The 1st time that the message ("Licensing for this product has expired.") appeared, I tried to uninstall Photoshop CS4 and re-install it again. But after re-installing it, the message appeared again. It dissapoints me.
    Could it be because of the keygen I used? Cause I just downloaded some keygen in the internet and when the program asks for a serial number I used the keygen. But after the next day, it says that the serial number of this product has expired so I took another serial number in the keygen and so on. I don't want to buy the serial number online because its expensive and our country is not listed in the store listings.

  • Startup reverts to "Photoshop Extended Trail has expired"

    Photoshop cs6 ver. 13.0 keeps reverting at startup to a screen that states my "Photoshop extended trail" has expired.  Has Adobe come up with a patch or solution Yet?  It is now July 2013.  I have also reinstalled from CD, immedaitely choose not to include in my updates preferences photoshop or bridge updates and that didn't rid the problem.
    I know you can just choose to "license this product", re-enter Serail Number to launch the program, but that is lame, as it just reverts back about the fourth time launching. 

    Possibly a glitch with photoshop, you should call adobe support or email Adobe.
    But where to you buy it? You could have got scammed with a serial that deactivates on a certain date

  • Can I use Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended on my brand new iMac? I had PS on my old Mac using the student licensing.

    About four years ago, I purchased Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended while I was in undergrad. I downloaded it to my Mac. Since then, I've purchased a brand new iMac. Can I use this same software? I know it's been four years so the software is very updated, AND my new iMac does NOT have a cd drive. This may all be in vain. I'm just clueless! Thanks!

    Emalexander89 you are welcome to install Photoshop CS4 on your new Mac.  You can download a fresh copy of the installation files at Download CS6 products.

Anyway thanks for taking time in reading my problem.

  • Photoshop CS4 Extended and Lion 10.7.4

    Does Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended work on Lion 10.7.4? when I get the "Licensing for this product has stopped working" and I advance to where I'm to click on the License RecoveryLauncher.app it does not appear. A file called License Recovery Launcher does appear with the circle with the line through it.

    I recently upgraded to Mac OSX Yosemite 10.10
    When I try to open Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended it says error 150:30 Licensing for this product has stopped working.
    I followed the help advice which says to download some software to mend the problem but it wont launch - error message You can’t open the application “LicenseRecoveryLauncher” because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.
    How can I fix the problem?

  • Photoshop CS4 Extended- change from PC to Mac and a lost licence key.

    Hi,
    I have been trying to get into adobe chat to ask these two questions, however it always comes up with an 'chat is unavailable' and I'm unsure of where else to turn- as there is no email contact and no number.
    I bought Photoshop CS4 Extended (Student edition) a few years ago and got a disk which i have been using on all my pc computers (deactivating old computers and re-activting new ones), However i have now changed to Mac- and the disk will not load on the mac as it is set for windows. I have then tried to download, CS4 online- but my licence key comes up with a red cross and it will not be accepted. I have looked at other chats and looked at different sites to download the cs4 (and apparently the extended cs4) however i can never find the right download or its just a read me pdf document.
    I just want my CS4 photoshop on my new mac computer and unsure how to get it.
    Secondly i lost a licence key when one of my family computers died- and have only had one licence key since then. I'm just wondering is there a way to get this back?rent
    Is there a different way to contact adobe? Chat just doesn't seem to work for me- and i would love to get these two questions cleared up.
    Thanks,
    Rachael

    Prior to the subscription models—and of course that includes CS4—the Photoshop license was platform specific, either Windows or Mac, but not both.  Your CS4 Windows serial number ("key") will never work on the Mac version.
    CS4 is out of the loop as far as requesting a platform swap for a nominal fee.  It is no longer supported by Adobe in any way. A platform swap required the destruction of your PC version, so you could not use both the PC and the Mac versions.
    For a time, you could have used CS4 to upgrade to CS6 for about $200, but that time window has closed by now.  Now you would have to own a legitimate version of CS5 in order to be eligible to buy an upgrade to CS6.
    You can of course buy the full version of Photoshop CS6 Extended for $1,000 from the Adobe store:
    Creative Suite 6
    Alternatively, you can subscribe to Photoshop CC and Photoshop CC2014  on a monthly basis without ever owning the software.  If you stop paying monthly, the software ceases to work.
    The cheapest subscription is the Photography plan, which includes both Photoshop and Lightroom for $10 a month.

  • Deploying Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended over Network - issue

    Hi all,
    I'm hoping anyone can help me with this issue that has plagued me for a few weeks! First of all, here's the details I have:
    * Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended - downloaded media from Adobe website
    * Creative Suite Deployment Toolkit - again, downloaded from Adobe website
    * Installing to Windows XP with SP3
    I ran Creative Suite Deployment Toolkit and set it up including our Volume Licensing key and it output some files including the XML files. I double clicked the AdobeUberInstaller.exe file and it got installed without any issue.
    However, when I ran it as silent install via our SMS, it always get stuck at Adobe AIR install with the install log from
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Installers\Adobe Photoshop CS4 11.0 09-02-2009.log
    with this at the end of the log file:

    Checking bootstrapper progress
    [     320] Wed Sep 02 14:12:11 2009  INFO

    [     320] Wed Sep 02 14:12:19 2009  INFO
    Checking bootstrapper progress
    and so on, with no end in sight.
    I have left it more than hour. I also have left it all day, the log file is always full of it. I even "told" Creative Suite Deployment Toolkit not to install Adobe AIR and it still tries to install it anyway. I checked the AdobeUberInstaller.xml file and it has <Action>donotinstall</Action> marked for Adobe AIR. So I'm not even sure why it's trying to install it.
    This happens on a PC that has Adobe AIR installed. I tried on another PC where it doesn't have Adobe AIR installed and I still get the same thing.
    I'm running out of ideas how to get this to work and this is why I'm here to seek further help from you... help?
    Has anyone seen this issue before and if so, what was the fix to get it to work?
    Many thanks,
    Tony Sutton

    Hi all,
    I received this e-mail from Adobe, so I thought I'd share this with you all for future ref.
    Air needs to contact Adobe to get a certificate.   I would recommend not installing this as part of the suite and push out seperately.  At any rate, if you AIR remotely, you will need to set the proxy to allow for the certification process.  The other option might to create a snapshot of Air with the certificate already in place. 
    Here is KB article on it   http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/408/kb408168.html
    Thanks all.
