Serial Number Invalid OSX Server 10.6.6

We have several servers and several serial keys. One of our servers has completely stopped responding in Server Admin. (All Services are "grayed out" and unavailable and the Serial Number is listed in Server Admin as "XSVR - 111-222-x-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-x"). I have read several threads about this issue, but none seem to be resolving my problem.
I have tried to:
Disable the non-used ethernet ports.
Enter a new serial number via - Server Admin-Settings-General.
Remove the Server from Server Admin completely and then re-add it.
Run "sudo RegisterSeRV -s" in the Terminal.
Nothing is working to resolve this problem. Does anyone have any new insight or suggestions for resolving this problem?
Thanks

Hi Douglas,
Thanks for posting up!
We have a similar problem on our 10.6.5 XServe.
Three queries for you in your environment.
Do you have any processes that are running taking a huge portion of server resources? If so is it servermgrd?
Under Console do you see anything re-occurring consistently, especially something about serialnumberd?
Is your server dual-homed over two networks?
Any information you can provide is appreciated, hopefully assist us in resolving these issues!
Cheers, David

Sold Aperture 2 - but 'serial number invalid'

Hi there, please help
I bought Aperture 2 many months ago, but found it wouldn't work on my Powerbook G4. I then switched to Adobe Lightroom, and put the Aperture software in the cupboard.
I've just sold the software, but the new user gets the error message, 'serial number invalid'. It's possible I entered the serial number (can't remember), but the software itself was never used. How do I get the software to work for someone else?
Many thanks for any help.

If the serial number is valid it wouldn't care if it had been entered before or if it had been on a different computer. Is this a boxed set? It wasn't an upgrade was it? Do you still have the original serial number sticker?
Either the serial number you gave to the new owner is wrong or else they are entering it wrong unless the software you have was an upgrade in which case you also need the original serial number.
If you don't have the correct original number the only ones who can help are Apple.

Standalone Mac OSX version of Acrobat 9 serial number invalid

Hello. I purchased Acrobat 9 in September 2009 and then my computer died. I went to re-install it on my new MacBook Air (OSX 10.9.3), by downloading it from the link provided in the 'orders' section of the Adobe website and entering the serial number, but it will not let me proceed as it says the serial number is invalid. Any ideas? Thanks!

No. I already tried to run it by the Adobe support via chat, and they said to try here as the serial number was 'valid' :-S
It says 'The serial number you have entered is not valid. Click OK to retry entering the serial number.'
Note, I do not have the full CS, only Adobe Acrobat Pro, Reader, and Photoshop Elements installed.
Thanks.

Serial Number Invalid on Reinstall

I haven't been able to open Au 3 for the past while. Every time I tried I would get the displayed error (have no idea what it;s referring to). I finally decided to uninstall and reinstall, but upon reinstalling, I have found that my serial number won't be accepted as valid anymore. This is the only machine I've used Au 3 on. Any suggestions? Keep in mind the error isn't the issue any more - it's that Au is saying my serial number is invalid.

See here:
Audition 3 and the activation service
and here:

Dreamweaver CS4 serial number invalidated after 8 months of use

In January 2nd 2014, I purchased an OEM version of Dreamweaver CS4 for Windows from a reseller called "Smart Shop" which looked like a serious outfit [emails from Jet Support were received with a link to "Access your order and customer support http://appscustomerscare.com"]. A serial number was obtained. I downloaded the program from their site and installed it without any problem: When I launched the application, the serial number was inserted and the Adobe server validated it: the application worked seamlessly for more than 8 months.
Yesterday, when I launched Dreamweaver CS4, a dialog box showed up stating the the serial number used was invalid! I used the serial number that I had been given to activate Dreamweaver but the form showed a red X at the end of the serial number meaning the the serial number was invalid.
[personal information removed... Mod - https://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-3731]
[This is an open forum, not Adobe support, please do not post personal information]
Now, I'm back to the trial version (available for 29 more days)!
Is there a licensing problem link with buying an OEM version of Dreamweaver from resellers?
Why was the serial number considered valid on first run and all successive runs and then invalidated after 8 months?
How can I be sure that my next "bona fide" purchase of Dreamweaver won't run into the same problem?
Is there a way to recognize good from bad resellers?

Photoshop Elements serial number 'invalid'

I want to install my Adobe Photoshop Elements 7 from disc onto new computer, but receive message that the serial number (from the packet) is invalid. Any advice?

you don't need to deactivate if you're installing on the same computer (as long as there were no major hardware changes).
but, if you want to deactivate and uninstalled program, contact adobe support: http://www.adobe.com/support/chat/ivrchat.html
make sure you're using the correct number to activate: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html

Serial number invalid CS2

i am having trouble loading CS2 on my new HP i7 which has windows 7 on it. I have the original CS2 premium which i purchased 9 years ago. firstly i loaded it from the CD. it then was giving me a problem to register. eventually after googling it said i must uninstall and download new files from the adobe site as the cd's were no longer working and there was a techinical problem and because software is "old" it basically no longer works from cd. i have spent all day doing that and have downloaded all the files. now im trying to set it up but it wont accept the serial number which i have on my box. it says "serial number you provided is not valid' please help!

You need to use the serial number provided with the downloaded files. See the following page:

Serial Number Invalid?

I am attempting to reinstall my retail copy of Logic Express 8.
I type in the serial number and it tells me it is invalid.
I've tried using 1's instead of I's and 0's instead of O's.
This isn't an issue of another copy being installed elsewhere,
I've formatted the drive it was previously installed to.
I'm not sure what I should do as apple doesn't really have email or phone support for this software it seems.

Was it a fresh install of LE8 or did you upgrade from LE7? I know some people who installed LE7 and then did the upgrade to 8. There are some Serial Number issues occasionally. If you did, you might have to re-install 7 again.
