Problem installing CS6 on second computer

Hi, I am trying to install CS6 design standard on a second Apple laptop. It runs on my older Mac Book, but in the licence it is said I can use it on two devices. Downloading was easy, but when I typed my serial number, it says there's is no qualified product found on my computer. I just downloaded that so, thats weird?

There is nothing weird about what you encounter.  The message indicates you are installing an upgrade license version of CS6 and it is unable to find the older product on the machine that qualifies you for using the upgrade.  It should be providing you with the option to select that older qualifying version and enter the serial number for it.
Error "This serial number is not for a qualifying product" | CS6, CS5.5, CS5

  • Problems installing CS6 on second machine

    I was under the impression that you can install the software on 2 computers. I get an error message saying that I have a valid number but no product.
    Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

    If the words "qualifying product" are part of what you read in that message, it is indicating that you are installing an upgrade version and since it cannot find an older version on the machine it is asking you to identify the older version you are upgrading from and then provide its serial number as proof that you qualify for the upgrade.

  • Install Lightroom on second computer?

    How do I contact Adobe to get a second copy of Lightroom to install on a second computer? It says you can do this with one license, but they don't say how to contact Adobe to get the second copy. I tried using my serial number when the trial was over and it does not work.
    thanks

    Hi,
    I just bought LR2 through the online store.  I have installed it on my desk top and my lap top.  I used the same ser. # for both installs and had no problem at all.  I also installed pse7 from disc on both machines with no problem.  I dont have the reason why it is not working for you.  you should be able to do what you want.   The only thing I can think of is if you had one machine running the program while you were trying to install the other one the install may have been stopped because you can only use one machine at a time.
    Good luck

  • Question: How do you install CC on second computer?

    Question: Bought CC. Installed it on my computer at work. It works nicely. I was promised when I signed up that each license could be installed on a second computer. When I log in on my home office computer, all I can see is trial versions of individual programs — not CC (as promised). How should I proceed? Retro-compatibility with CS6 is *challenging*.

  • Installing Photoshop on second computer without original installation CD

    I have been upgrading Photoshop on my desktop for years and have just ordered the CS5 upgrade. I now want to also install it on my laptop.  Can I do this with the upgrade CD?  I no longer have the original CD and I was using Windows 3.1 at the time anyway.
    Thank you!  Kathy Juron

    Hi Kathy, you don't need a previous version installed on that second computer, but in order for the upgrade installation to work on new computer, you'll need the serial number of a prior version to enter at the time of the upgrade install...
    It doesn't have to be the very original version you had, just a prior version (up to three versions back).  Each time you upgrade, you get/have a new serial key.

  • Trouble installing Captivate on second computer

    Captivate was installed on my second computer (have a work computer at office and second at telework site)
    When I launch Captivate it pops upt box "sign in required", but it asks for a certificate.
    If I hit 'yes' or 'view certificate' it goes in long wait mode, then tells me I'm not connected to internet.
    So I never get opportunity to put in my username/password/license code

    Screen shots
    If I select Yes
    Timer wheel spins for about a minute then
    If I select View Certificate I get
    My telework computer is a virtual clone of my office desktop.
    I'm not an administrator for the machine. But the admin who installed it was also unable to put in the license info.
    It's been several months since it was purchased and installed on my telework computer.
    Hope this helps.

  • Installing Photoshop cs6 on second computer

    How do I install Photoshop cs6 on a second computer (mac) when I don't have the cd anymore?  I originally bought the student version off of Amazon and I registered it with Adobe. I looked up my serial code on my adobe profile, but I don't know the product number. 

    Something is blocking your access to the Internet (or specifically Photoshop).
    This can happen when something like a spyware / Trojan / adware checker is over cautious. In my case it turned out that Spybot search and destroy was being over cautious.
    If this is what has happened to you you can try temporarily disabling your hosts file in the following way. This is assuming Windows 7 (you haven't said which version of Windows you are running).
    Navigate to the following folder:-
    %systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\
    In my case this would be
    C:\system32\drivers\etc\
    Rename the file "hosts" to something else (in my case I called it "hosts - copy" but you can call it anything).
    Try your activation again.
    Then go back and change the hosts file back to its original name.
    This might solve your problem.
    Good luck

  • How can I install LR4 & CS6 on second computer?

    How can I download CS6 and LR4 to a new MacAir notebook? I have this software on my iMac. I think there is no charge for downloading to the second computer with the same OS.

    Cloud or traditional license?
    For traditional license, down the trials from the Adobe website and activate them with your serial number.

    how do I install photoshop on a second computer. detailed info

    On my first computer, which has mac OSX 10.6.8 operating system, I was able to install photoshopCC
    On the second computer, which has the same operating system, I says the operating system is not supported by photoshop anymore.
    Is there anything I can do to navigate this problem without upgrading my operating system?
    When you say you were able to install on OS X 10.6.8 on your first computer, how long ago did you do that? The reason I ask is that Photoshop CC supports 10.6.8, but Photoshop CC 2014 (released this month) does not. That might be why the current version won't install. What you could do instead on your second machine is use the Previous Versions feature of the Creative Cloud app to install one of the older versions of Photoshop that does support 10.6.8, either Photoshop CS6 or Photoshop CC.
    Also, regarding CC activation: You don't have to manually deactivate installations of software you installed with the Creative Cloud desktop application. As you install the software on more machines, it will let you use the two most recent installations you signed into, while automatically signing you out of all older installations.

  • HT4722 install fcpx on second computer?  it keeps reading "error"

    i've been trying to install (already purchased) fcp x on a second computer (macbook pro)
    and it stops at around 850 mb's, and then i get an "error" prompt.
    any suggestions?

    Don't bother with the download if it's causing problems.
    Simply copy the app across  with a memory stick or hard drive etc.  .  .  .  .  .  that's all there is to it and much quicker.

  • Problems synching with a second computer

    Hi,
    I've searched the docs and forums but can find no help for the problem I am having synching my iPod with a second computer.
    When I plug it in it recognises it but only calls it "E/:" and does nothing else. The iPod screen just continues to say "Do not disconnect".
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Ric

    Thanks for your help folks, but after reviewing that document etc its not quite the same problem. The computer recognises the iPod as a mass storage device but doesn't show it in Windows Explorer. It does, however, show up in iTunes, but only as "E/:" (at home it comes up as "Ric's iPod") and cannot be updated.
    It is shown as "Update Manually" but I thought that is what I wanted as I'm trying to sync with a second computer?
    What I am trying to achieve is to be able to download the odd podcast or track while at work but more importantly to be able to upload my Nike+ data.
    Thanks again in advance!!
    Ric

  • Bought snow leopard 10.6.3.( mac intel i3) having problems installing product. after 15mins computer freezes any ideas?, bought snow leopard 10.6.3.( mac intel i3) having problems installing product. after 15mins computer freezes any ideas?

    Hi recently bought snow leopard 10.6.3. Having problems installing. My i Mac has intel i3 and system 10.6.8 . After about 15mins the computer restarts but freezes with apple logo. Any ideas? thanks alan

    Yes, 10.6.8 update was specifically to ease the Lion installation (apart from some security updates).
    Juat log onto the App Store (Icon would be in the Dock by default) and find the download. If you're not already registered with App Store, you'll need credit card info to hand, and your Apple ID (the one you use to log in here or the iTunes Store if you use it).
    You would only need the retail SL disc if you were running 10.5.8 (Leopard) or earlier.

  • Install Printer on Second Computer

    A new 5530 was instaled on a desktop computer, with some difficulty but it works and commincates wirelessly. Computer knows it is there and has setup properties available.
    I tried to set it up on a netbook that has no CD drive. I copied the CD fiels to a memory stick and carried it cross. Installation looks good but never completes.  
    I went through the troubleshooter numerous times, and tred to download to software. Each tiem it stops and asks if the downloaded installation file exists, and if I have access to it.
    It is in the download file, and if I tell it to run, it runs and then asks if it exists and if I have access to it. 
    The troubleshooter wanted me to make numerous changes to my computer, which I did, none of which helped.
    The netbook knows the printer is part of the network, but has no software to drive it.
    How to escape from this?  I have spent at least five hours working on this and got nowhere.

    Hi,
    That probably is the problem. Please download the following file, save on your laptop (remember where) then right click the download file and run as Administrator:
