Re installing Photoshop CS4 on an upgraded computer and it will not accept serial number

Re installing Photoshop CS4 on an upgraded computer and it will not accept the serial number. Unable to deactivate Photoshop before upgrading computer due to hardware failure. Note that Adobe Photoshop CS4 New Install Bundle package consists of the new Photoshop CS4 Upgrade bundled together with the qualifying product, in this case an Adobe Photoshop CS2 License. I have tried both the CS2 and CS4 Serial numbers and both have not worked.

  • Installing Photoshop CS4 from original Disk onto my new Macbook Pro.  Serial number accepted but now asks for the serial number of a previous version e.g. CS3 which I no longer keep.  How do I resolve ?

    Tina Hadley did you migrate/transfer your applications over to your new Macintosh?  If so this could cause problems with your serial number being recognized.  Please run the available uninstallers located in Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder.  Once this is done you will also want to run the CC Cleaner Tool.  Details on the use of the CC Cleaner Tool can be found at Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.

  • Creative Suite 4 upgrade will not accept serial number

    I purchased Creative Suite 4 as an upgrade to Dreamweaver MX and everything was fine until my laptop packed up. On my new laptop I have re-installed Creative Suite 4 but it will not accept the serial number.
    I suspect this is because I do not have Dreamweaver MX installed on my new machine. I no longer have my Dreamweaver MX CD or serial number so am unable to re-install it.
    After a lengthy discussion with Customer Services they could offer no advice and suggested I post a question on the forums for advice.
    I would be grateful for any suggestions as to how I can get Creative Suite 4 to accept my serial number.

    Support is wrong. Only they can fix serail number issues since only they have access to the databases. Try again and request a different operator.

  • How to download already purchased Photoshop Essentials on a new computer when I do not have serial number

    I have purchased a new computer and need to download Photoshop Essentials which I purchased earlier but do not now have the serial number (my hard disk crashed and I did not save the info).  Thanks for your help.

    You should be able to find the serial number for the software thru your Adobe account online.  I am not familiar with the name Photoshop Essentials so I am not sure if there is such a program available to download.  Do you happen to mean Photoshop Elements?  If so, available downloads can be found at...
    PSE 10, 11 - http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/photoshop-elements-10-11-downloads.html
    PSE 7, 8, 9 - http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/photoshop-elements-7-8-9-downloads.html
    If you are unable to find your serial number, your only hope will be to contact Adobe Support by chat or phone to see if they can provide it to you.  THey might not be able to if you are unable to prove you purchased the software.

  • Cannot install photoshop cs3 on my new pc windows 7, does not recognise serial number

    help cant install my disc photoshop cs3 on new pc windows 7, downloads but eventually doesnt recognise serial number

    Hi dt hope,
    Photoshop CS3 is not tested on Windows 7 and you might face compatibility issues.

  • Re-installing Fireworks CS3 upgrade after crash. Does not accept serial number previous Version of Fireworks.

    Previous version is Macromedia Fireworks MX.

    You should check your Adobe account online to see if it has the information you need.  If not, there is likely little chance of you being able to confirm your eligibility to use the upgrade version.
    You might need to discuss this with Adobe Support directly.  Here are some links to help make contact:

  • I installed photoshop cs6 in my new computer and when it asks me for my serial number I write it but it wont accept it

    I installed photoshop cs6 in my new computer and when it asks me for my serial number I write it but it wont accept it

    There are two steps when entering a serial number:
    When you enter it in the 24-digit field, you should see a green checkmark. If you see a red x, you may have mis-typed the number, as Ben pointed out, it could be for a suite instead of a standalone product.
    If it takes the number and installs, then activation is the next step. If it fails to activate, you may have exceeded your activations or the number might have been retired.
    In that case, contact Customer Care with proof of purchase.

    I take that to mean you never deactivated the 2 old machines.  So you're stuck.  You need to contact customer care via online Chat.

  • I just installed Photoshop CC 2014, but Latest version of Bridge will not work when I want to open it from PS

    Any idea why is Bridge latest version not working when trying to open it in Photoshop CC 2014 ? (French version) ? When trying, Creative Cloud app will open to ask if I want to download newest version, which I did numerous times now.
    Thank you

    Hi Eric,
    Here's how a similar problem was resolved between PS and BR.
    The issue was confirmed by ChunXiaYang at Adobe staff and solution put in the forum discussion on June 19 (no. 13). Here's a copy:
    I have confirmed that this is a known issue before release. And the workaround is to uninstall and reinstall PS 2014. Then Bridge can be launched by selecting 'Browse in Bridge' in PS2014.
    Please try the installation, and let me know whether it works. Thanks!
    It woks just fine since I unistalled and reinstalled PS 2014.

    I did this with a fresh install of the entire CC package. As soon as the CC packages updated, CC Bridge broke. Unistalled CC PS, reinstalled again, CC Bridge works, but CC PS updates itself again, and breaks CC Bridge.
    You know... The whole move to CC has been a massive cluster... I've struggled with the CC packages for my entire subscription year, and now I'm 1.5 month away from needing to throw down another $720 for no reason what-so-ever, just so we can Beta test your really screwed up subscription services.

  • I have an older version of iTunes on my office computer and it will not let me update to the current version without an administrative password. How can I get around this??

    I have an older version of iTunes on my office computer and it will not allow me to upgrade to the newer version without an administrative password. How can I get around this???

    If you have an iBook G4, (PPC) you can't do much.
    But if that is a MacBook (intel) you may be able to
    upgrade the OS X, if the hardware is up to it...
    Since there were about nine different build models
    of MacBook (not powerpc iBook) to identify what
    one you have would be the first step to knowing
    what OS X and RAM upgrades it could use.
    If the computer is not already at OS X 10.6.8,
    it can't go online to get or use OS X 10.7.5. So,
    when you more accurately describe the 'Book,
    detailed information is available.
    When you find the serial number, there is a web
    page that can be used to identify by serial no.
    http://www.powerbookmedic.com/identify-mac-serial.php
    That'd be a first step. Or even the Model number
    which should be visible on the outer case by hinge.
    Good luck & happy computing!
