Serial number issues with my ACADEMIC version of FCP

Am I not able to download FCP updates because I have an academic version of the application?!?!?!? I saw this on another thread:
"Upgrade serial numbers cannot be used with Academic or Not for Resale numbers from a previous version"
Please let me know if there's a way for me to download updates, as my version of FCP (5.1) is now not compatible with the version at school!!!!
Thank you for any help that you can provide.

Having an Academic serial number doesn't prevent you from downloading free updaters. It prevents you from upgrading to Final Cut Pro 6 or Final Cut Studio 2 at the reduced price.

  • Trial mode and serial number issue with Creative Cloud

    Hello,
    I recently bought a CC membership but I seem to be getting the same trial mode/serial number window others have been receiving when trying to open a Creative Cloud app. I've already spoken with two Adobe techs without any resolves. I've uninstalled and reinstalled CC, I renamed an OOBE file that the tech suggested I do and looked into the Language preferences. I'm on an iMac 10.8.4.
    I'm really not technically minded but to me it seems like something continues to read my original CS6 trial I had previously. I've since uninstalled it but something remains perhaps My only thoughts at this point would be to make sure I have any recent files backed up then perhaps use Time Machine and revert back to before I installed CC then try installing again OR do the trial and hope once the 30 days are up it will read my paid account.
    I would really appriciate any feedback. I've used far too many excuses at work having missed deadlines due to this issue.
    Thank you

    Okay, I think I have it solved *fingers crossed* by following this:
    Mac:
    1. Please click on "Go" and navigate to /private/etc
    2. Open "hosts" file and check out for any entries for Adobe.com
    3. Remove the entries and save the file
    4.  try again launching any product from CS6
    Thanks

    I did a backup of the hosts file and labelled it "hosts-backup" and put it on my desktop, then made another copy of the hosts file (since you can't alter the original). This time I removed ALL the Adobe entries and named the file "hosts", and saved that to the desktop. I then replaced the original hosts file with the altered saved version by dragging it into the etc folder.
    I started up Flash cc and it worked! I've since downloaded PS cc and it's opened as well. I just hope it continues to function...

  • Serial Number issue with Photoshop Elements

    Hello,
    I have an old laptop which has been misplaced/lost which has Photoshop Elements installed on it. I now have a new machine and wish to install it on the new machine but it wont let me. I gather because of the fact that it is licensed for 1 machine. What do I have to do in order to install it on the new machine with the same serial number?

    You don't say which version of PSE. Are you getting a message that you already have PSE installed on two computers or that your serial number is invalid?
    If the former, contact activation support:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-deactivation-products.html
    and they'll get you straightened out.
    If the latter, what is the message and which operating system and version of PSE?

  • Serial number issues with photoshop elements 12

    I purchased the student edition of photoshop elements 12 and premier elements 12.  The guided download process only installed the premier portion, and not photoshop.  I downloaded the trial version and attempted to apply the serial number, but that does not work.  What gives?

    what error message did you see?

  • Serial number issues with Photoshop Elements 12 installation

    I have purchased Photoshop Elements 12 for my Mac.  The installation only allows for a 24/28 digit number.  My serial number has 30 digits.  Help?

    whatever you're trying to use is NOT the serial number:

  • 2 issues - Invalid Serial Number issue & Lightroom 5 Trial vs full version folder hierarchy question

    Hello
    not sure if I should split these two questions...
    1 - Invalid Serial Number issue
    I'm helping out a friend with their large photo collection and they bought Lightroom 5 and received the serial number but when we add this to Lightroom it states that it's invalid - I tried leaving it until the following week (I visit them weekly) and it still refusing the number - when I went into their Adobe account and took a look at downloads the option to download the full version is greyed out (or an x - I'm not sat on their computer right now so can't double check) but it wouldn't allow me to do anything so we just had the trial version.
    anyone know what the issue is - shall I get them to contact Adobe to get them to take a look - I also had issues trying to find a customer support email address lol. (I seem to faffing with lots of websites/software/companies this week so getting a little frazzled!)
    2 - Lightroom 5 Trial vs full version folder hierarchy question
    This question is linked to the above i- I am wondering if the folders in Lightroom are different in the trial version vs the fully paid version.
    I had set up some greeting card templates and contact sheet layouts for my friend and tried to transfer them to her computer but whilst, LR 'sees' the folders it just doesn't acknowledge the templates - I tried it several ways but I've not had that issue before so will that sort itself when I get the serial number fixed?
    Thank you for any help or suggestions - hope you all have a good weekend :-)
    Lenny

    Hi Lenny, the two questions may be related but the trial is actually the same as the full version. I would suggest getting the serial number issue sorted out first. There have been known issues where a paid for product still shows up as a trial.There is not a lot the community can do. You need to contact Adobe directly using the link below. Use the dropdown menu for boxes (1) & (2) to scroll down the list and choose:
    1. Adobe Photoshop Lightroom
    2. Serial number issues or activating my product
    3. Click on the blue button: Still need help? Contact us – then click the button marked “chat now”
    It’s usually possible to start a live chat, if an Adobe agent is free, and often to get the problem fixed right away.

  • I just purchased retail version of PS Elements 13 and there is no serial number included with it.

    I just purchased retail version of PS Elements 13 and there is no serial number included with it.

    Hello,
    I purchased from Amazon.com in a factory sealed retail package. There is no serial number on the sleeve as this link suggests:
    Find your serial number quickly
    Adobe is closed today for phone and chat. Can anyone help me? There IS an 8 digit code on the sleeve where the serial number is supposed to be. Am I supposed to do something with that?

  • ASA 5515X Serial Number Issues

    I have an odd situation with regard to two new ASA5515Xs I have just purchased.
    One is an ASA-5515-IPS-K9 and one is an ASA-5515-K9
    Both units "show version" serial number is different than the chassis serial number.
    More specifically, the serial number on the sales order, original box and chassis stickers are all the same - however, if I do a show version or show inv, the serial number is different.
    My suspicion is one of two things have happened - either there was some error at the factory, and I am the unlucky recipient of two mislabeled units -or- the show version/inv serial numbers of these new units are not supposed to match the chassis serial numbers, which seems odd but possible.
    Can anyone who has one of the new 5515Xs confirm that the chassis serial number sticker DOES match the show version serial number?

    I can confirm the same issue is present on the 5525X and software version 9.1(1).  We issued the activation keys using the chassis serial numbers since the licensing tool wouldn't accept the "show version" ones, but the keys won't apply on the ASAs.  I suspect they'll have to manually regenerate the activation keys for the "show version" serial number.  I currently have a TAC case open.

This may take a few minutes...not supported yet.ERROR: The requested activation key was not saved because it is notvalid for this system.
    As a side note, the fix in the above referenced bug ID, CSCtz56314, changed the "show inventory" command to show the chassis serial number.  Previously both "show version" and "show inventory" showed the PCB serial number.  (Source:
    ASA5500-X シリーズ製品 シリアル番号の確認に関する留意点 /
    https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-26952 / Japanese)
    However, the activation keys still need to be issued against the PCB serial number and it appears that you need to open a case with Cisco Global Licensing Operations since the licensing tool still doesn't support the PCB serial number.

  • Acrobat 9 Standard reinstall gives invalid serial number message. Serial number starts with 1016.

    I am revamping a laptop that was WinXP and making it Win7Pro.  I ditched the 128GB SSD and upgraded to a 256GB SSD.  I maxed out the RAM.  I got Windows and Office installed.  Acrobat 9 was next.
    I had pulled the serial number using BelArc Adviser.  he serial number starts with 1016 and has six sets of 4 numbers separated by dashes.
    I did the chat and was told that version 9 is too old for them to help me and they pointed me to the forums.  I did some searching but didn't come across anything that seemed to match.
    I do not have the installation CD.  This computer is 3-1/2 years old and I've only been the IT guy for 9 months.  I downloaded version 9 from the Adobe download site.
    Any help?
    Thanks,

  • Mobile received no bill or box. Serial number starts with QR.

    Mobile received no bill or box. Serial number starts with QR.
    I sent a broken iPhone to fix a Spanish company and was told it was beyond repair. They said that Apple offered me a new iPhone in exchange for mine and I accepted. I had to pay 200 euros. I have sent an Iphone without box or invoice and the serial number starts with QR. Is it new? How I can know that the iPhone comes from Apple? According to the Apple website is not guaranteed, as I entered the serial number in the support section of the web
    Hope you can help me.

    We can't help you. Have to take it up with your carrier. Yes, in the new sealed-system world, it is the Standard Way to resolve this kind of issues by offering a replacement phone. But the carrier has to make the notification to Apple regarding warranty coverage.

  • Serial number issue

    Hi GUrus,
    Can anybody please help me with this scenario? We produce a part in Plant A. We have another plant B.  We get sales orders on plant B and if there is enough stock in plant B to meet the sales order requirement, we send it from B, if we do not have enough stock then we procure from plant A. The question i have is, is it possible to ship the same serial number parts to the end customer with out gettting any error message in plant B.
    Fo r example, serial number 1 gets shipped from Plant A to plant B and we receive it and keep it here and when we ship the same serial number 1 to a sales order from plant B, we are getting the error message, serial number not found or invalid? can we do something in the system to get rid of this error message?
    I hope i made myself clear? how will the system perceive this? Just because we shipped the serial number to our plant, does the system consider that we alreaedy shipped the serila number to the customer?
    Thanks
    Anusha

    Well, did you find the customizing of the serial number profile in customizing?
    I found the following instructions in SAP online help that will help you to confirm that your customizing is correct.
    A serial number profile with the operation MMSL must be entered in the material master record.
    If a stock check is to be performed, the indicator of the same name must be set in the serial number profile.
    In order that the individual stocks are recorded correctly, you must define the indicator as follows:
    · The serial number usage for the operation MMSL must be 03, meaning that the assignment of serial numbers is obligatory for goods movements.
    · The stock check must be 2, meaning that if the stock data is inconsistent, the system does not perform the posting and issues a corresponding error message.

    Now question.
    1. In 1st place how system allows the Goods issue for particular reservation with different serial number?
    2. Without issuing the serial number 123456, how the status changed to INSTL???
    3. How to solve this problem, need to change the stauts of Material 123456 as ESTO, then i can do goods issue,. how to change the status??
    Regards,

  • Does serial number come with specific motherboard or it's replaceable?

    Hello guys, there have been a lot of sudden death issues of Z3C and I was one of the victims too, luckily just got it back after nearly 2 months wait
    Anyway I was told that they had replaced a new motherboard to fix the problem, but I don't really think so because when I went to the repair centre they gave me a paper with a parts list they repaired and replaced, which included screen, lock button and so on but no "motherboard" or "mainboard" written on it, I looked again and again just to make sure. If they did change the motherboard, would there be a new serial number because when I checked it in the Android setting it is still the same as the first time I bought it, is this true or they can insert the same serial number into the new motherboard? I know this may sound crazy or dumb, I will be happy if they didn't because there's still a chance for me to retrieve all the previous datas which meant so much to me. Thanks for the help guys!

    Thanks for your reply Thommo, I had already contacted Xperia care there was nothing they could do to retrieve the data, but I have just found Wondershare Dr.Fone and some other data recovery softwares that can help to retrieve the lost data for non-rooted phones. However I don't know why only Z3C needs to be rooted in order to perform data retrieval but as stated in other websites rooting Z3C will void the DRM that result in bad quality low-light photos... So if possible I will unroot it but it seems like there hasn't been a way released yet to unroot Z3C so far, right? So I'm like stuck in between
    So before I root I just want to confirm if the IMEI / serial number comes with specific motherboard, if yes then there's still hope left to get back everything I want because that means they didn't replace the motherboard at all!

  • CS4 Extended Serial Number issue

    Hi
    while registering CS4 Extended I have a problem. As Upgrade Version only CS3 Extended is shown, not my valid CS3.
