Serial number not accepted after trying reinstall cs5design premium on mac . Mavericks

CAn any one help me? Ik got the serialnumbers from adobe, whymis it not accepted. Is it because I have mavericks on the mac?

if you purchased a mac serial number, and not windows, your serial number will be valid with the matching mac installation file regardless of which mac os you use. some mac os may not be compatible but that's not a serial number issue.
if that doesn't explain the issue because you did purchase cs5 design prem for mac, what error message are you seeing after entering your serial number?

Serial number not accepted after reinstall

As the the useless live chat sent me here I will ask, but I can not see how 'peer help' can assist where live chat can not. And yes, I am very annoyed with live chat.
I have been using PSE3 for a number of years, but since reformatting my PC and reinstalling PSE3 I can not get rid of the register popup :- http://s24.postimg.org/w4eo6jfkl/screenshot_31.png
because if I follow the link I get This serial number has already been registered. Products can only be registered once. Click here for more information.
How can I stop the popup popupping?

Well, I contacted support again, and was told I would have a telephone call from them as it needed 'real time' problem solving. Great I thought, someone will help at last.
So at the appointed time I was at the computer, phone to one side, coffee at the other, waiting for the call.
I waited
and waited
and waited
3 hours later I send a message to Adobe saying what I thought. Eventually after almost 5 hours after the promised call, someone phoned. Details confirmed, problem explained.
RESULT! Well, no. 'we do not support PSE3' So why the £$*& did you agree to telephone? I stated the problem in the initial contact, including the version I was using. An email saying 'sorry we do not support PSE3' would have sufficed, but no, they gave the impression that they would give support, for which I was grateful (at the time, not now)
So what do I think of Adobe product support?
What support? They do not understand the meaning of the work, or customer service in general.

Serial number not accepted after purchasing LightRoom 5

I downloaded the 30 day trial of LightRoom, LightRoom Mobile and Creative Cloud, then decided to buy outright LightRoom 5 from Amazon (not wanting a monthly subscription to services I didn't need).
I got a serial number from Amazon, downloaded and installed my purchase and tried to enter the serial number. I got a screen message saying the serial number is invalid.
How can I fix this and activate what I have paid for?
BTW, why do I have to query a forum instead of getting advice from Adobe, who presumably have my money?

You probably need to contact Amazon unless they explicitly state that you need to contact Adobe. As far as I can see Amazon sold you the software, not Adobe... Amazon has your money. I am not sure how it works if you downloaded, but for the hardcopy it states that it "Ships from and sold by Amazon.com."
Did someone require you to query this forum or did you get directed here thru the following page: Contact Customer Care
If you came thru that page, if you make the proper selections you should get an option to contact Adobe Support by chat and/or phone, though they are not a 24/7 operation like the forums can be.

Serial Number Not Working After LR4 ReInstall

I wiped my desktop PC hard drive and installed Win 8.1. My PC runs fine. I downloaded and installed LR 4 with no problem. Activation is the issue.
I bought LR 1.1 and have upgraded to each version including LR 4 in the past. I used the same desktop PC to run those versions of LR (and have changed the OS with no problems). I tried to use the serial numbers from the previous versions of LR to activate LR 4, but no success. I am running the same purchased LR 4 on my laptop with no problem.
What do I do to re-activate LR 4 on my desktop PC?

Issue resolved.

Serial Number not accepted CS4

I have a Macbook Air and tried to install CS4 Design Standard, but the downloaded installer does not accept my serial number (marked as invalid).

Looking forward for help!
Thanks.

CS2 Premium serial number not accepted at use on Win 7 system

I have at several years old version of the Creative Suite 2 Premium. It has been licensed on a Win XP system previously, but now I try to install it on my new Win 7 computer.
But the "Personalize your software" - window will not accept the serial number that I can read on the product casette from the label named "SERIAL NUMBER CREATIVE SUITE PREM".
Am pretty sure that it is entered correctly, and in fact the same serial number is accepted during installatin.
Please advise....
Ole C P

Hi Jeff,
The request for the serial number comes when I start up InDesign, I have not tried the other programs.
I enclose a screendump of the Serial number request and while I am at it a foto of the product case as well:

Reinstalling PSE7 in Windows 7: serial number not accepted

My hard drive was replaced yesterday and Windows 7 reinstalled. I just bought Adobe PSE13, but prefer to work in PSE7. I have installed PSE7, but the program will not accept my serial number: I try typing the number in, but nothing happens. Please help.

Dear Mr. Weller --- I cannot get your on-line link to work, so do not know if the "answer" (which I have not seen) is correct. If you could cut and paste it and send it to me, that would be wonderful and, if it works, I would be delighted to mark the query as "answered." I did search the site prior to posting my query and did not get any response.

Installing Photoshop CS5 on new Win8.1 - serial number not accepted. Help please!

Hello everybody,
I just wanted to install Photoshop CS5 on my Windows 8.1 64bit machine, which also happenes to be a new machine. The serial number provided in my Adobe account is not accepted by the installer! The information I could gather from the "support" area points me to a problem which is caused by not properly uninstalling the previous install, am I right? I did not know this. Also, I am no native speaker and feel a little lost on this.
Please help, I need to use my copy of PS CS5, thanks!

Elements 13 serial number not accepted

Purchased, downloaded and installed Photoshop Elements 13 on Mac.
After installation it asks for serial number. It will not accept the serial number from the purchase email.
I verified it was the same serial number as on the accounts page.
I checked it multiple times, had someone else check it, then printed out the email and entered one number at a time checking each one off just to make sure I got it right and I still cant get it to accept the serial number.

Cs4 extended license serial number not accepted

I have just reinstalled my Mac and upgraded to Yosemite. I have reinstalled my copy of Photoshop CS4 Extended but when I enter my serial number which obtained from adobe site after logging I am told it is not valid so I can only use the program in demo mode for 30 days. I bought the mac version and it has never been installed anywhere else
Any ideas?

Find your serial number quickly
Contact Adobe with proof of purchase since we are users and cannot fix this.
If you bought it from Adobe, it will be registered under the account you purchased it under.
