New lap top need new serial number for adobe pro

can you advise where i can get a new serial number i have a new lap top and lost everything

If you have registered the product to one of your adobe id, please login to https://accounts.adobe.com/ with your adobe id see under the Plans and Products , where you would have all your products listed with the serial numbers. Else, then there is only alternative can be utilized if you have the proof of purchase ( do not have the proof of purchase, ask your reseller to provide you the proof of copy ) or the order number if bought from the Adobe itself or the email you accssed to buy the product from the Adobe as there would be transaction of the product listed under, then you can get the help with the serial number in following two ways:
First contact your reseller and ask them to provide the help as it was bought from them on the basis of the proof of purchase or ask them to help you with the proof of purchase if you do not have.
Reseller did not help you with the serial number, have the proof of purchase handy, go to step 3.
Contact Adobe support and submit the proof of purchase if asked to get the help as there might be chances of getting the help within next 5-6 days once after the proof of purchase is verified from the reseller.
Valid proof of Purchase-

Try and see if this helps.
Thank you.

The top line that said file, history, bookmarks etc is gone. I accidently clicked on something, how do i get it back?

The line on the very top of the web browser, (above the icons for back, forward, refresh....) that used to say files, view, history, bookmarks etc is no longer there, how do i get it back?

Hello Dawn.
Press ALT in your keyboard (or F10) to make the menu bar temporarily visible. If you want it to be permanently visible, go into ''View > Toolbars > Menu Bar'', or rightclick the navigation toolbar (the stop button, for example) and select ''Menu Bar''.
If this doesn't help, rightclick the navigation toolbar, select ''Customize...'' and click ''Restore Default Set''. If it doesn't appear right away, try pressing ALT or F10. You can go into ''View > Toolbars > Menu Bar'' to make it permanently visible.
If none of this helps, you may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Try disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal.

TS4040 Safari giving me headaches. Can't delete bookmarks, etc. Must force quit all the time

I have a Mac OS X Lion. I have tried several suggestions as to how to fix my Safari problems...and none have worked.
Months ago, I took my computer to the Apple store, they wiped the hard drive, loaded Lion operating system. I reinstalled everything that had been saved on Carbonite and have been having trouble with Safari ever since.
Can I reinstall Safari? Or/and what must I do to delete bookmarks?
Thanks, in advance, for all the suggestions. Most appreciated. Jan

Sorry, I should have added this error message that I get when trying to move the rejected clips to the trash:
The operation could not be completed. * -[NSPlaceholderMutableDictionary initWithObjects:forKeys:]: number of objects (0) not equal to number of keys (4)
Perhaps this will help someone with nailing down what the issue is.
Thanks again.

I recently up-graded to Firefox 4.0 and now I have lost all of my settings at the top of the page. I need my hotmail and muy bookmarks etc back like they were. I no longer have aol but can't seem to get away from it. Help....Marilyn

All of my settings have changed at the top of my page since I up-graded to Mozilla 4.0. How do i recover everything? Even my hot-mail and bookmark bars are gone. Help

Ok this is bizzare!
Thank you for your response, I went throught each and every step without any luck, even got the recovery programme, and painstakingly tried to sift through all that mumbojumbo to find what i needed. finally found the bookmark bit, but it had been fully overwritten :(, so on reading about previous ff versions, found the sqlite thingys, and they were relatively unscathed(partly written over, but saveable apparently TG), saved them to adiff drive, amongst other possibly good folders. Then looked up how to install them, and it said to close FF, and install to profile folder.
So i tried to close FF, and the original problem from a few days ago, where it asked me if 'i was sure i wanted to close this window as it has X tabs open', popped up again. This is where 'open blank page' selection was set, over 'open previous tabs'. Wanting to save that info on how to sort out these friggin files, I reset the Option to 'open previous tabs', and closed FF. After unsucessfully searching for the profile folder on my laptop, i opened FF intending to search online for where i could find said folder.
AND BANG, surprise surprise, the FF I had just closed with only tabs open about finding out what the heck to do, had disappeared, and instead my original saved tabs were up, and my bookmarks are there..... I am gobsmacked! what the heck just happened there???
I have made 3 back up in different folders now, of those friggin bookmarks. I am weary now tho of shutting it all down.... what if its back to the other pages I had with no bookmarks, tomorrow :(

Is there a way to manage (arrange and add/delete) apps from within itunes while I have my iphone 4S connected to computer... instead of doing it on the phone itself? I have an unreasonable number of apps and need to clean it all up.

I have a replacement phone and have saved a backup but ideally before or, if need be, directly after I restore from backup I would love to clean up my apps. I have over 2000 apps which I clearly don't use all at once so like to keep most of them sitting in itunes however recently life got messy and so did my phone so much so that I just lost control of what was on it and not on it because of a forgotten wifi synch that I'd not disabled so randomly id get apps appearing on my phone that I'd deleted ages and ages ago. Anyway the notion of having to fix it all on the phone with the jiggling icons is a painful one... I am hoping I can do it via my lap top instead. Anyone? all search efforts have not arrived me at the info I seek.

Yes, connect your iPhone to your computer, click onthe name of your iPhone then click on the apps tab in iTunes.

I have more than one copy of the same song in my iTunes. Some have the icloud symbol next to them and some do not. I need to clean this up but I am afraid to delete the songs for fear I will lose them.

On top of that my Mac keeps telling me my start up disc is full and I am deleting stuff like crazy!

Welcome to the  Discussion Forums
It won't be a problem if you delete your extra copies.
I don't download very much to my tv, I do sometimes if I'm in bed but usually I do it from itunes. However if you have not fully downloaded something to the tv it is possible to start the download from itunes as well, you have likely activated 'check for downloads fin itunes in some way, could be by opening itunes, selecting 'check or downloads' from the advanced menu or that you simply have automatically check for downloads set in your prefs and it has checked coincidentally.

Assuming your iPhone is well charged, place it in recovery mode as described here. You may have to try this more than once to succeed.

I had a translator app.i presses the voice buuton now it wont switch of and is saying everything. The scree will not scroll now. I have deleted this app on my lap top via iTurnes. I have synced my phone. I have taken the sim out I have turned it off and o

anyone help please my phone woint stop telling me everything sice pressing a button for voice on a translator app. the screen will not scroll. I have sync the phone deleted the app on the lap top but it wont let me delete it on the screen because its frozen. I have taken out the sim card.. I have turned it off now Im stuck.. Im in a small village in Spain and cannot get to an Appke store to get it fixed yet. Any ideas?

Plug your phone into the wall charger for at least 30 minutes...make sure you have a sim card in the phone...then:
Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.
Make sure you have no anti-virus software running or any firewalls...turn all of that stuff off.

Itunes is no longer detecting my iphone on my own lap top, though it is on my husbands!?!? I have tried deleting itunes and reinstalling, still cannot get itunes on my lap top to pick up my phone?

Any ideas welcome, I need my iphone to sync with my own lap top!

Here's the best place to start -> iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows.
Did it stop being recognized after updating iTunes?
After taking a look at the document, are you able to start the Apple Mobile Device Service and is the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed?
WTH.

I have a mac book pro with Boot Camp that also runs windows. I upgraded to Lion and somehow it crashes the mac side peridoically. I am told I need to "clean" it and reinstall lion using the recovery drive. will that delete the windows partition too??

I have a mac book pro with Boot Camp that also runs windows. I upgraded to Lion and now the mac side crashes/freezes periodically, especially iphoto. I am told by the genius' that I probably need to "clean" it and reinstall lion using the "recovery drive" which resets everything back to default and reinstalls the lion operating system. My question is will this also delete the "windows" partition drive and all that data too. If so that will be a huge pain in the ___ to back up and reinstall boot camp and windows. I want to shoot the lion.

There is no system like Acronis for the Mac platform. You can try using the buiilt in Disk Utility to create an Image of the complete Mac drive but I have found that this does not work very well as on tryiing to restore it gives errors sometimes.
You can use SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner to create a bootable Clone of your system partition. But that is only for the System partition and not the complete drive.
If you use Boot Camp to install Windows on your Mac neither of those two programs will clone the Windows side.
Neither will Disk utility as Mac's can not create or write to a NTFS partition. So some other program is need for that.

I have an old imac G3 desk top computer that I would like to donate. I need to clean up the hard drive. How do I do this?

I have an old imac G3 desk top computer that I would like to donate. I need to clean up the hard drive. HOw do I do this?

If you have a Mac OS 8.x or 9.x CD (depending on the iMac model), look for a Drive Setup utility somewhere on that disc. Boot from the CD while holding down the C key. Initialise the hard disk with a 'Zero all data' option chosen.

How to delete photos on the ipad which was put on from a lap top. I have tried doing what some said ie: getting into slideshow - but didn't get any arrow to press. Can someone help please?

Can anyone help me to delete photos that were put on my ipad from a lap top computer. I have tried following instructions from another member, but there was no arrow to press by the slideshow - so I was unable to go any further. Appreciate any help, as there are lots of photos.

I am pretty new to Ipad and computers - it's easy to delete photos taken on the Ipad camera - but what do I do on the computer to delete the laptop photos (which a family member put on) I can work my way around a computer OK.
