The serial number my university provided me is not working

Hello,
Last semester my university gave us the serial number for the CS 5.5. Now they told us that the same serial can be used with the CS 6, so I downloaded it and tryed to activate it but it tells me that the serial number is invalid. I should mention that the computer where the CS 5.5 was installed is broken, and I had to buy a new one, and is in here where I downloaded the CS6.
The invalid serial number is [removed]
What can I do?
Thanks in advance

Now they told us that the same serial can be used with the CS 6,
That's BS. You need a new serial for CS6 products, you may only input previous serials for upgrades, which is irrelevant for edu products, anyway, since there are no upgrades. And don't ever post your numbers publicly.

    YOu have purchased or been sold an upgrade from Acrobat 9 or 10. You simply need to prove you own that old version using its serial number. be sure to keep both serials forever.

    I am trying to install Photoshop Elements on my new Windows 8 computer (I recently upgraded my windows 7 computer where Photoshop was working fine on before).  It says the serial number is invalid.  Do older versionsnot work on Windows8, or do I need to uninstall it from my old computer first?

    You are allowed to have two activated installations.  If you happened to have one on this Windows 8 machine before, it is possible that the activation used for it was never deactivated (did you deactivate it before you upgraded Windows?).  Talk to Adobe support thru chat.  They might be able to resolve this with you:

  • I have a new MacBook Air with Yosemite (no CD/DVD capacity). I want to install Photoshop Elements 6. Can I do this with the serial number? If pse 6 is not compatible, can I upgrade to pse 7. I do not need pse 12 or 13.

    I cannot answer regarding compatibility, but there is no download available for PSE6 if you would need one for this.  You might be able to copy the installation files from a disk to some other removable media that the machine accepts.  Upgrading to PSE7 would not be possible mainly because Adobe does not sell older versions of their software.

  • My daughter locked her ipod and cant get back in. We talked to a tec over the phone and gave them the serial number but she said it was not the right one.

    your going to have to put the ipod into recovery mode and restore the device. Unfortunatly you will lose all the info on the device after the restore but if you have a backup for the device in itunes you will be able to get all the info back if no backup is on itunes all info will be lost you can find the backups on in itunes under the   edit>
    preferences>devices and check for the backup
    to put the ipod into recovery mode disconnect the ipod from the computer
    power down the ipod
    press and hold the home button than plug the device in and the itunes should give a message that states
    itunes has detected an ipod in recovery mode and must first be restored before it can be used
    than click the restore option in the summary page and issue resolved

  • Why won't the serial number I was given for Elements 12 work?

    Why won't the serial number I was given for Elements 12 work?

    First be sure it is a serial number and not a redemption code. The serial number will have 24 digits (no letters) beginning with 1057. If that's not what you have, here's how to use a redemption code to obtain a serial number:

  • I'm trying to re-install Adobe Acrobat 7.1.0, but the Serial Number of my old copy doesn't work. Where do I get a new Serial Number?

    I bought a copy of Adobe Acrobat 7.1.0 in 2001, and it's been working fine, but now I'm told I need to download a new copy. However, when I get to enter the Serial Number (of the original copy), it says it's invalid. How do I get a new Serial number?

    OK, answered my own question: the Serial Number is listed opposite the link at Adobe - CS2 Downloads

  • So I bought a Used copy of final cut pro 7, but i cant use it because I need a serial number and the serial number that came with it doesn't work. What do I do?

    I bought my copy from ebay and when i got it I installed it, but every time i click on final cut pro 7 it asks for a serial number and when i put the on that came with it, it tells me it an invalid serail number. It is kinda making me want ti throw my mac out the window and just stick with windows.

    First, find out if you bought an "Upgrade" version, or a "Full" version.
    If you have an "Upgrade" version, it will require two serial numbers to work - first, the serial number of the last "Full" version you are upgrading from, then the serial number of the "Upgrade" software you are installing.
    If you have bought a "Full" version, see this KB article with help entering serial numbers in the Pro Apps:

  • How to deactivate the serial number for photoshop elements that is not installed or available?

    I have a version of Photoshop elements that has been uninstalled and is no longer available to reinstall.  When I uninstalled from an old computer, I failed to deactivate the serial number.  How can I do that without reinstalling?
    Thanks
    keithz

    Wow, I tried the "chat" option and waited for 30 minutes....no one ever helped.....so I called a customer service number for the creative club option and they promised to put me though to someone who could deactivate my product.....waited another 30 minutes on hold.  So then I called the sales department and wow, just as I thought......someone took my call right away.  (Please note that the computer that the software I am trying to deactivate has been reformatted and I am unable to deactivate in that manner).  I asked the poor sales rep, why on earth would I spend hundreds of dollars for new software when the only people who you can get to help you are the sales people.  I think I will stick with free open source applications........this is so not worth it......

  • Re-entering serial number for Logic Pro 8 is NOT WORKING.

    I purchased Logic Pro 8 when I bought my MacBookPro in 2008. Two weeks ago the main logic board had to be replaced. Logic Pro 8 then wanted me to re-enter my serial number. I re-entered it, but am getting "serial number is not valid." What the **** do I do now?
    Thanks in advance to anyone with a hint...
    <Edited by Host>

    Thanks for the tip, the trick is now going to be contacting Apple. They don't seem too eager to provide phone numbers without having me throw them MO MONEY. After the hassle and expense with the main logic board, I'd like to be able to get my legally purchased software running again. Will let you know how it goes, meanwhile thanks for the quick answer
