Prevent registration info availability  to user?

We have lots of users using our PC.
Within Photoshop a user can view our registered serial number copy it down and use it elsewhere.
Is there anyway to protect/hide our serial number?.
I am guessing not, in which case is it possible to have activation for our serial number via phone only adn we have a verbal password?.
Any thoughts/ideas how to protect our serial number?.
TIA

We're still on track. As noted in the first post, your full serial number is not displayed in Photoshop.
If your allotment of activations is already filled, a serial # thief will have to call Adobe to request a reset of the activation count so that they can use the stolen serial and activate on their own computer.
Assess the probability that someone figures out the remaining characters in your serial number, that they call Adobe to request that activation reset, and that Adobe would believe and offer the pirate the activation when they have that serial number registered to you.
>Any thoughts/ideas how to protect our serial number?
Adobe has already thought this through. You really do not need to worry about it unless you have some abnormal situation.
>A user can re-use our serial number elsewhere. The serial will allow at least 2 or 3 activations before you have to contact Adobe to get the 4th allowed.
These comments are not true. Review the activation info on adobe.com and in your licensing.

  • Where is Adobe Creative Suite 6 registration info stored on computer?

    I'm using Vmware Mirage basically for image management and I need to find out the location that Adobe 6 stores it's registration info. The problem I'm running into is after the initial image is placed on a computer I have to go into Adobe and Sign in with our account to register it otherwise it stops working after 7 days. So once I've done that and a month or two down the road when I push an update to the image for some reason Adobe thinks it has not been registered, so I have to go through and Sign In to Adobe again. So more than likely the file where this registration info is stored is getting overwritten. When I find where this is stored I can I can prevent that file from being overwritten.

  • How can you remove an application' s registration info ?

    Hi all,
    I recently bought Nikon Capture NX after trying the 30 day demo version.
    The demo worked ok, but the one I bought doesn' t...
    I tried all versions ( 1.0, 1.0.1, 1.1 ) + both English and Dutch versions.
    I' ve been talking to Nikon about this and they will send me a new cd.
    Hope this will solve my problems, but here is my question:
    How can I remove the registration info from the system, because I suspect this could be the problem as the demo worked ok and after registrating the app it all went wrong ? I even upgraded from 10.3.9 to 10.4 in the process ( after reformatting my HD etc. ) but the problems persist.
    I would like to try out the demo once more to see if that works ok, but when I install ( after removing any Nikon- related file on my HD ) it automatically registers the app. , so I can' t try it in demo mode...
    I don't want to go through a complete install of my system once more
    Any help is highly appreciated
    Regards,
    Peter

    Hello Klaus and Mike,
    After all this trouble and time lost, I reinstalled my system once more - hoping the registration info would be gone as well ...
    I didn' t try to install Capture NX yet, since I will receive a new install cd in a couple of days - maybe with a new serial ?
    Anyway, this is what Nikon Support sent me this morning ( translated by me, so maybe not entirely to the letter :0) ):
    " Dear Mister Lembrechts,
    Unfortunately, it is not possible to remove the registration completely.
    The computer will hold the product key in its memory.
    This is why a test- version can only be used for a limited time also.
    The Capture NX version we sent you should solve all your problems.
    Nikon Europe Support
    www.europe-nikon.com/support "
    Now as you do not need a registration key to use a 30 day demo version of this software, I cannot see why they don' t implement a "unregister" button or something in the preferences for example.
    This could prevent the kind of struggle I experienced here.
    Well, lets hope this will solve it then...

  • HT1206 Lots of info about one user using multiple computers. What about multiple users with separate Apple IDs using same computer? Having problems getting my wifes new iPhone talking to her apple account on the computer we share (2 users)

    Lots of info about one user using multiple computers. What about multiple users with separate Apple IDs using same computer? Having problems getting my wifes new iPhone talking to her apple account on the computer we share (2 users)

    You need to create a user account for your wife (or yourself depending on who has the current user account). When syncing, each of you should sign in as a separate user, login to iTunes and then sync. I had this problem when my sister got an iPhone. When we did her initial sync, everything on my iPhone showed up on hers. Apple gave me this solution.

  • Error - The registration of the service "User Profile Service" has failed. The user profile can not be loaded

    I am running an environment with an Active Directory and Terminal Servers.
    I have searched high and low for resolutions to this error but I cannot find anything related to my situation, let me explain further.
    The fixes I found are related to local users only.
    When I create a new user in the Active Directory I provide the paths to the profile folder in the "Remote Desktop Profile" and "Profile tab"  lets say for example \\ad001\home\%username% and \\ad001\profil\%username% .
    I give rights to the user to read/write the "home" folder which is mapped for folder redirection.  An I know that when the user first logs on it should create a "v2.%username%" folder upon successful logon.  This is when I am
    presented with the error message below:
    "The registration of the service "User Profile Service" has failed. 
    The user profile can not be loaded"
    Does anyone have any experience with this or know a suitable fix.  Again this is for the "Roaming" profile creation no local.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Did you receive for any one user or for all users?
    Have you tried to solve the issue by fixing the user account profile?
    For that you can adjust the registry setting “ProfileImagePath” with
    particular SID of that user under below mention path.
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
    Also if this can’t resolve the issue you can try to delete the SID of that user or renaming the old and and then check the result again by creating new profile for that users.
    More information.
    You receive a "The User Profile Service failed the logon” error message

    when you were install your cs3 you should have been prompted for you serial number.  were you?
    if not, you probably didn't properly install cs3.  copying/migrating/moving etc is problematic.
    if yes, did you see any error messages during installation?
    if yes, attach a screenshot of the error message.
    if not, check you install logs, Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6, CC

  • Registration Info

    Guys,
    I found the FL2.1 registration is a bit troublesome and every
    time I hard reset my device, after I reinstall the FL2.1, I need to
    do the whole process of registration (open license.txt, copy and
    paste the URL, copy and paste the key to Adobe website and fill up
    the email and device info). Couldn't imagine I need to do this
    thing again and again.
    Is there a way to keep the registration info, eg. registry,
    file, etc so I can simplify the whole thing.
    Any idea where does FL2.1 store the registration info?
    Thanks.
    Cheers,
    Vibranze

    Try doing what I do...
    After a hard reset, I install the stuff I need, get the
    device just exactly
    how I like it. That includes completing all the registration
    stuff.
    Then I do a full backup.
    Then if I have to do a hard reset (very rare these days) I
    can restore from
    the backup. Takes about 5 minutes.
    There's always one or two new things I need to install after
    a hard reset.
    Once my current setup gets so far away from my original
    backup, I'll create
    a whole new backup and use that instead.

  • Registration Info Can't Be Found

    I recently purchased Acrobat Pro and just purchased a new computer. I cannot locate my registration info. Can you help me?

    Adobe doesn't know what you don't know. If you bothered to register, your serial number is on your Adobe account. Otherwise to find out your serial at least a shred of proof of purchase and contacting support are your only option, but that usualyl only works if you bought directly from Adobe, not a reseller.

  • Aperture lost all license and registration info

    did a update install....and Aperture will not run....lost all it's registration info

    thanks guys....good help...."enter your registration info" !!!!!!
    had already updated to 1.5.6 so I figured I was ok on that front.
    of course I have my registration info and will enter it....
    I was curious why Aperture, of all things, lost it's info...none of my other apps did....and certainly none of the Apple apps should....but even Adobe or other vendors seemed ok....
    my question was more curiosity related....why an Apple app and why Aperture????

  • Motion asking for registration info at launch

    Over the past few days, when I launch Motion 4, it asks for my registration/serial info as if it was the first time I launched Motion.
    Anyone experience this and have a fix?

    I'd go to /Library/Application Support/Final Cut Studio/ and remove the Final Cut Studio System ID...
    You'll have to enter your serial and registration info, but then it's done. Or at least it's fixed this problem before...

  • Is the Sales Order Item User Status available in user exit MV45AFZZ

    Hello,
    Does anyone know if a sales order line item user status is available within user exit MV45AFZZ (USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT)?
    I need to send an email when the status changes from one specific value to another specific value but I don't seem to have access to what the latest value is in this user exit.
    I have found a table XTVSTAT which cntains some user status' but it's not clear which status maps to which line item.
    If anyone has any suggestion please let me know.
    Thanks,
    Ruby

    Hi,
    I do need to access the values as I need to check for a specific change to the user status from value A to value B.
    I have already tried debugging the user exit and searching through the available variables but the status information doesn't seem to be available.
    I guess I will have to try the output determination route. Can you explain this in a bit more detail please.
    Thanks,

  • No system available for user mapping in create new group.

    Hi Experts,
    I faced this problem when i create a new group
    "There are no systems available for user mapping for the selected principal."
    i checked that my server is running well with other groups.
    i would just like to ask what determines the "selected principal"? is it because i select the wrong roles or the roles does not need the system?
    i'm confused as some previous groups i created works well until this new group, i've tried to create a new 1 but the problem still exsist.
    Thanks.

    hi,
    Define permission to the system that you have created.
    right click on hte system that you have ccreated  - > in properties dropdown go to permissions -> search the group/ user for which you want to map this system - > and give permission as enduser.
    this will make your system accessible while user mapping.
    regards,
    Sujay
