Photoshop keeps asking for registration

I registered Photoshop CS2 when I initially installed it. All seemed to go well. Since then every time I start the program, it tries to get me to register again. Anoying but solved by clicking on don't register. How can I make this go away?

The same thing happened to me about a week ago only with Premiere Pro instead of photoshop. My computer got a virus a few weeeks ago so I had to fix that and then reinstall premiere (along with Windows XP and everything else) and that is when I got this problem. I ended up calling the adobe registration phone number on the activation page- and they walked me through it. I had to go to tinyurl.com and paste the registration info back into some folder on my c drive, I don't remember which one. I wish now that I wrote the steps down in case it happens again.
hope this helps

  • I subscribed to Photoshop CC through the creative cloud but it keeps asking for registration

    I subscribed to Photoshop cc through the creative cloud which has been registered. Whenever I open Photoshop it asks for registration?

    Registering does no good and I had similar problems with the full Adobe package for a year and now it's still not working right with this photographers package. I've been watching for a fix for a long while now and nothing here ever helps. They assume you are not registered usually, but of course that's not the case. After all this time this problem remains for many people. After a while you just live with it and pray that you don't have an internet outage and miss a deadline.
    Pro software should not have a system this flawed.

  • Pages keeps asking for registration code. Help!!

    I had downloaded a 30 day free trial of Pages before I actually bought it and now that I bought it, it keeps asking for a registration number but I don't have one since I bought it off the Mac app store. I cant save any documents or anything! Can someone help me???

    Have you deleted the old Pages copy you downloaded? If not, open Finder, go to Applications folder and do it. Also, delete the Pages copy you downloaded from the App Store. Then, open Terminal (in /Applications/Utilities) and type:
    sudo rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iWork.Pages.plist
    Finally, open the App Store, go to Purchases tab and download Pages again

  • Homesite keeps asking for registration information

    I have been using Homesite 5.5 for several years.  I was using it successfully in Windows 7, 64 bit.  I recently upgraded my desktop to Windows 8, 64 bit, and when I went to use Homesite for the first time since the upgrade, it asked for my registration information, including serial number, as if it hadn't been registered.  After I entered it, it asked for the serial number of the program I had upgraded from, which I also entered.  It then brought up the registration screen again, followed by the previous serial number screen, etc.  After going through this three or four times, I was finally able to get into the program, but after I closed the program and tried to open it again, the same thing happened.  Even though I have Dreamweaver (and the entire CS 5 Design Premium suite), I prefer to use Homesite, and want to find out how to get it functional again.  I assume this is something to do with the registry, but have no idea how to fix it.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Hey Folks, I think I have found a solution - even if I cannot prove if it can be reproduced on any other machine:
    After having the same Problem I tried several workarounds - and suddenly one crazy idea I had worked out:
    Run Homesite under "compatibility mode"***
    Enter registration information
    Homesite will run - but most of the menu bars won't appear. Don't mind: compatibility mode was only necessary once to remember the registration information...
    Close Homesite and switch back to normal mode
    Homesite will start and stop asking for registration info...
    This worked well on my Windows 8.1 Pro 64 Bit System - I hope, it works well with all your Systems too! Homesite is such a perfect simple editor and I'd badly miss it if it would not run on my system...
    *** For compatibility mode:
    Open the Homesite program folder in Explorer and look for Homesite.exe
    Right click on homesite.exe --> properties
    Select "compatibilty mode"*
    * I am using a German Windows and am not quite sure, if "compatibility mode" is the correct translation into English. If not, look for something similar...
    Good luck to all of you Homesite-Lovers!

  • Photoshop keeps asking for Serial Number ( I already purchased it online)

    Hi,
    I bought the Photoshop app through the Adobe website for a yearly commitment as student. I downloaded Photoshop from creative cloud, then I try to open Photoshop, it asks me to sign in, I sign in then it asks whether I want to start a Trial or License This Software. Where in the world can I get the serial(license) number from?No one has provided me with one and I never got any confirmation e-mail that supposedly has the serial number. This is really making me angry because I really need photoshop for my class because I have homework that is going to be way over due if I do not get photoshop up and running by morning. I keep trying to contact someone through a live rep but NO ONE is giving me straight answers! please anyone help!
    Thank you,
    Katie

    Hi
    I have moved from a trial to the PS and LR monthy payment plan , this has gone through but I cannot use Ps as it wants an activation code or download light room as it is not showing as an available app to download ?? can anyone help ??

    First try chat, then UN-install and run the cleaner and RE-install if chat can't help
    Chat Now button near the bottom for Activation and Deactivation problems may help

  • Photoshop CC keep asking for Serial Number

    Photoshop CC keep asking for Serial Number. Adobe has charged my credit card 5x since June, but my Photoshop CC still doesn't work.

    This is also happening to me.
    I've been a subscriber for the last year and a bit.
    I've moved to a new computer at home and since then I've been getting this prompt even though I'm signed in, everytime I've opened photoshop. Now the trial has expired and I'm cut off from using it.
    This is total BS.
    I've spent the last 2.5 hours going thru every adobe support doc they've posted. Nothing works. Two hour wait on the phone, 2.5 hour wait to chat (if I'm lucky and the window manages to stay open).
    Oh hey, I can see my breach notification from here too!
    You are on thin ice with me Adobe.

  • I lost my original disk for photoshop 7... I need to update.. it won't let me.. and keeps asking for the disk.. even though the program is on my pc... How can i get my update?

    I have photoshop 7 on my pc but have lost my original disk.... I went to update it and  the update is not seeing the file on my pc... and it keeps asking for my disk.. but i can't find it...
    How can i update it...

    Ah, you had Photoshop 7.0 working, and now it's not.  I see that as a separate issue to updating it.  I'm not sure why it would ask you to update it.
    Do you know whether you have 7.0 or 7.0.1 at this point?  You might be able to do a Properties function on Photoshp.exe and see that info.
    You could make an attempt to reset Photoshop's preferences to defaults.  Press and hold Control - Shift - Alt simultaneously immediately upon cold-starting Photoshop. If you get the keys down quickly enough - and you have to be really quick - it will prompt you to confirm deletion of your current preferences, which will lead to the establishment of a fresh default set.  If it does not prompt you, you haven't been quick enough to get the keys down.
    Only other thing that comes to mind is to use Windows System Restore to restore back to a restore point where Photoshop was working, or restore from a backup (you do make backups I hope).
    If that fails, and you need to do a fresh install but no longer have the original disk and serial number I'm afraid you may be out of luck.  There's no place I know of from which to download a fresh full copy of Photoshop 7.0.

  • Photoshop CS6 Extended 64 bit stopped working (asking for registration)

    Is there a solution for this yet?
    I registered this in 2012 and have been using it since on my Dell 64 bit laptop Windows 7.
    Now its asking for registration again.
    I don't want to use up another activation.
    What happened to Adobe support? Why is there no phone number to call?

    I already looked at what was available at the link.
    I entered the license again and this time it worked.
    Does this mean that I have used both of my installations?
    This PC is the only one it's been installed on. I should still have one more installation.

  • Keychain keeps asking for my password

    Hi,
    I downloaded a twitter application Natsulion, and keychain access keeps asking for my password. I tried looking in keychain access application for where the password is stored but I don't see it in there. I tried doing keychain first aid but that didn't fix the problem.
    I'm having this problem in other applications too.
    Thanks in advance,

    we're having the same problem. Having to re-authorize Aperture every time it launches. Not just Aperture but ALL programs with accounts (ie iTunes, Photoshop...)

  • Creative Suite 6 Design Standard (for Mac) keeps asking for the Serial Number ... over and over!

    My iMac has a well-installed Creative Suite 6 Design Standard. I have a valid serial (purchased it) and it works fine. Every couple of months though the Adobe Application Manager pops up and asks me wether I want to continue the test-period or if I am willing to enter the serial number. So I dig into my papers and get the serial number out ... it is accepted every time and works fine then. But after some time - there we go again: I have to enter the number.
    I faced this issue a while ago and read that it was recommended to update the Application Manger - which I did. But ... still being bothered by these kinds of questions from time to time.
    What can I do?

    27" iMac with Mac OS X 10.6.8 (it is not possible to update the OS --- this is the reason why I am running CS6)

  • Keep asking for my serial number again and again

    Have just installed CS5 , all paid up, all signed up, all numbers given and verified, but.....nothing CS5 works, all keep asking for my serial number again and again, accept and verify number is correct, adobe tells me I'm all up and good and running, then screen tells me I'm not licensed so it closes down. same in InDesign, and Photoshop. What the hell is going on Adobe??????

    Could be a permissions problem, so the licensing never can persistently verify the serial and create the necessary key files. Try creating another user account with admin privileges and run it from there, then check the settings on your existing account and the pertinent user data folders.
