Reciving a serial number upgrade message

downloaded acrobat xi and when i go to launch application i am getting a serial number upgrade message.  i have entered the serial number but i am getting a message "this serial number is not for a qualifying product"

Yes, you bought an upgrade instead of a full package or simply have been issued a wrong serial. Contact support directly by phone or web chat.

  • Acrobat XI Standard: error "serial number upgrade" [was:questions]

    Just purchase Acrobat XI Standard and when I went to open the program for the first time an alarm come up "Serial number upgrade"  Do I need more software to run XI?

    Did you buy a Full version or an Upgrade version?
    If you bought an Upgrade version, do you already own a previous version of Acrobat? If not, then you cannot use the Upgrade version. You need the Full version.

  • Why am i prompted for serial number upgrade?

    Activated software with correct serial number but it now asks for a serial number upgrade. This is taking way too long. I feel strong coercion and pressure to buy stuff I don't want and don't need.

    you're trying to install upgrade software.  you can expect to be prompted for the serial number of your upgrade and, if the previous version is not installed, to be then prompted for the previous versions serial number.

  • Serial Number Upgrade

    Just installed Adobe Acrobat XI Standard, scanned a document and now trying to open pdf but it is asking for Serial Number Upgrade: Serial number provided is valid but need a qualifying product could not be found on computer and then list products to choose.  I have never had a previous product and won't let me move forward.  What am i missing or neeing to do?

    did you purchase the upgrade?  (you can double check by looking at how much you paid which should be north of $250.)

  • I have a serial number but I cant find the associated product in the serial number upgrade screen

    I am trying to Install Adobe Acrobats XL standard. Installation goes fine until It brings up a screen titled serial number upgrade. It gives me a drop down list of products to choose from except for the one I have purchased. Can anyone help explain what I am doing wrong or what the issue may be?

    From what you describe you have purchased an upgrade version of the software.  To use an upgrade requires that you own an earlier version (also called a qualifying version).  The screen you are describing is asking you to select that older qualifying version as well as to indicate its serial number as proof that you qualify to use the upgrade version.

  • Computer crash. Trying to install updates and get this error ""This serial number is not for a qualifying product. Please try another" when you enter a serial number in the Serial Number Upgrade screen."

    My computer crashed.  Ugh.  I downloaded Photoshop CS3 (my first full version) and when I tried to upgrade ( I have upgrades to CS6) I get an error message.  I remember having to call Adobe for help when I purchased CS4 but can't find a number to call them.  I keep getting directed to help screens which are no help.
    Any solutions?  Is there a "generic" serial number I can enter to get my upgrades installed?
    I have a photoshoot that I need to edit asap.  I really don't  want to have to go back to CS3 version.
    Thank you to anyone who can help! 

    Doglovr1 you will want to locate the qualifying full version serial number which qualifies you to upgrade to CS6.  I did review your account and the only full version serial number was for an education version of Photoshop Lightroom.
    I would recommend contacting our support team directly at Contact Customer Care to see if the qualifying full version serial number can be found.  Also I would recommend referencing case 0181578817 which is your previous case from 2010.

  • Serial Number Upgrade window

    I've downloaded and installed Acrobat XI Pro with correct serial number. I get a window 'Serial number you provided is valid, but a qualifying product could not be found on this computer. To use this serial number you must own one of these qualifying products. Please choose the one you own and enter is serial number.  I've tried selecting products using the correct serial number and I still cannot open the application.  ????

    The title of your posting and the error message you receive indicate it is an upgrade.  You might want to check the price you paid against the full cost of the software to help determine if you purchased an upgrade or not.  Upgrades normally cost less than the full cost.
    Purchasing an upgrade has no relationship to your allowance to install on two machines.  If you own a license you are allowed to install and activate on two machines.  If you purchase an upgrade, each installation has to go thru the qualification process where you have to identify the version you are upgrading from along with its serial number.
    If you are certain that you paid the full price then you will need to contact Adobe Support directly to resolve your serial number issue.

  • Cant run adobe acrobat x1 pro after installing it - serial number upgrade problem

    i have installed adobe acrobat xi pro on my new microsoft surface computer running windows 8.1.  i just got this new computer ... the product was originally installed on my old computer. (i purchased the product a little over a year ago)  the download and installation appeared to have gone well ... but now when i attempt to actually run the program, i get the message "serial number you provided is valid, but a qualifying product could not be found on this computer"  a window asks me to select a product from a drop down list - but adobe acrobat x1 pro does not appear on that list

    The message you are getting indicates you purchased the software as an upgrade version and it is asking you to identify the older version that you upgraded from to prove that you qualify for using the upgrade version.  YOu need to select the older version and provide its serial number as well.

  • Serial number/ upgrade issues....

    Hiya. The company I work for has two macs with FCP on. Originally FCP version 4.5 was installed. This was later upgraded with a 5.1 upgrade. Since then a FCP Studio 2 upgrade has been purchased as we were told that we would be able to upgrade any version with the studio 2 upgrade. However when I try to do this I get a "you cannot upgrade from this serial number message. Is this because I am trying to upgrade an upgrade?? If someone could advise whether I am flogging a dead horse I would be most grateful thank you.

    There are two different upgrade items for FCS2. The one you should have purchased is the other one.
    The one that upgrades FCS 1 or FCS 5.1 is less expensive than the one that upgrades FCP 4.5 or below.
    You need the one that upgrades FCP, not the one that upgrades FCS.
    EDIT: You might call AppleCare and see if they will let you pay the difference between the two upgrade packages and get the one that upgrades FCP instead.

  • Invalid serial number error message when installing Acrobat 7

    I have my original software CD and serial number but understand that I need to use the downloaded program because Adobe no longer supports the activation code required for installing from the disc.  I was under the impression that I was to use the original serial number.  This is what I used when reinstalling my CS2 Photoshop  in the same circumstances.
    I downloaded 22001904.exe and ran it but when it gets to the serial number I receive invalid serial number message no matter how I enter the number.  I even tried cutting and pasting from my Adobe profile, since I have registered the program w/ Adobe previously along with other Adobe programs.
    Can you advise me how to proceed? 
    Sincerely,
    brokripananda

    no, use the serial number listed on the page where you downloaded acrobat 7, not your acrobat serial number

  • Rework purchase order - serial number error message

    We created a sub-contracting purchase order for re-work so we are issuing same material and receiving same material. The corresponding material is serial managed. So we will issue the same serial number and we will recieve the same serial number in this scenario. While doing GR we are getting an error message by saying that we can't receive the same serial number for the given material. If any one come across this scenario please let me know the solution
    Thannks in advance

    Hi
                  This is an issue in ECC5.0. you can not receive the same serial number on rework purchase order if you have already executed a 541 movement on same serial number. You need to change the serial number status to receive it again into system.
    Try to change the serial number status from ESTO to AVLB in IQ02, if system doesn't allow to change the serial number status, you need to switch the serial number profile to a different one which will allow you to change the serial number status in IQ02.
    once you change the serial number status to AVLB, system will allow you to recieve the serial number
    Thanks

  • CS6 serial number upgrade not working (win)

    I've been using CS6 for a while now (got an upgrade from CS5.5) and I'm trying to install it on my second computer and suddenly the serial number isn't correct. I'm using the serial number from CS6 (i've dubble checked the box and online) and I can't figure out why it's not working.
    Could it have to do with the product I'm supposed to choose? I've tried all off them with 6 in it and still NOTHING
    Help please!

    If you purchased an upgrade and it is askling you to choose the qualifying version, that would be the older version (CS5.5) that qualifies you to use the upgrade version.  You will have to choose CS5.5 as well as provide the serial number that was used for CS5.5 when you activated it.

  • CS6 Design and Web Premium serial number upgrade problem

    I bought the Creative Suite 6 Design and Web Premium upgrade to replace Design Premium CS5.5 on my computer but during installation I'm told I don't own a qualifying product. Have I purchased the wrong upgrade?

    Hi niamhy
    The serial number for CS5.5 wasn't accepted as it was a volume licensing product.  I see one of my colleagues has helped you out with this.
    Thanks

  • Can't find FCPro serial number; upgraded to Lion

    Eek.  Lost all the dicsc, etc., and now that I've upgraded to Lion, Final Cut Pro is asking for my serial number.  And I don't know it.  Any suggestions?

    Either call apple or give up the business. If you can't keep track of a thousand dollar set of disks, what's next?  Client's irreplaceable footage?  A rented RED camera?

  • Where can I download Flash builder 4.5, or can I get an serial number upgrade to 4.7?

    Hi,
    I cant find a working link for Flash builder 4.5 standard. I can only see 4.7 premium, and I notice the
    complementary upgrade to 4.7 has finished which I missed.
    Can I get a link to 4.5 or is there still an option to get 4.7
    thanks
    Jon
