Upgrading to CS3 from DW trial version

I downloaded the DW trial and when it was over, uninstalled
it and installed a full version of CS3 Web Premium that I had
purchased. When I try to open a CS3 app, I get the message that the
licensing has stopped working. I have followed instructions in 5
technotes and the CS3CleanScript readme. I have spent almost five
hours on the phone with tech support. I have been unable to use the
product at all. I saw a patch for Acrobat, but not for any of the
CS3 products that solve with this problem. I have moved or renamed
flexnet, the cache, and various other files. Help! Does anyone know
how I can get the product installed so I can get back to work?
Thanks!!!!

Try the steps here:

I had the same issue and it had something to do with the
FLEXnet
licensing. I didn't know about it, but followed the
instructions listed
and all was fine in 5 minutes.
Good luck.

  • CS6 has been converted from the upgrade I bought to a trial version.  What the heck is going on.

    I upgraded from CS5 to CS6 for my IMac.  I downloaded CS6 and out in my serial number and it worked fine for a number of weeks.  Suddenly when I went to use it it said it was a trial version.  I had to register it to use my CS6   I registered it and it worked,  but only as a Trial Version of CS6 Extended. I do not want CS6 Extended.  I deleted the trial version of CS6 Extended from my hard drive and once again downloaded my upgrade of CS6 and put in my serial number and it worked fine for a couple of weeks. Today, once again, it tells me it is a trial version and will not load unless I register the trial version. What the heck is going on? This is crazy.  I simply want to use CS6, for which I paid. Help!

    Thanks!

    Its a bug that came with the latest update. The developers know about it and will fix it as soon as they get back from christmas vacation. Lots of us (inluding some of the developers) are suffering the same problem.

  • Fonts went missing when I upgraded from the trial version (mac)

    I'd been happily working away in a file using ID CC with no problems whatsoever when my trial period expired. A couple of days later, I purchased a subscription, then opened ID back up and opened up the exact same file.
    When I reopened the file, it told me that all my fonts were missing, and it was going to replace them with Minion Pro (no thanks).
    I checked fontbook and confirmed that those fonts are, in fact, all installed on my computer. (Even though I was sure they were because I'd been successfully using them shortly before.) I tried uninstalling and reinstalling them. I also tried closing and reopening the document, and shutting down the program, as well as shutting down my computer. Nothing has made any difference. Trying to find the fonts in preflight hasn't helped at all.
    The problem is not that my fonts aren't installed, it's that ID stopped recognizing them, even though they are installed, when I switched from the trial version to a subscription.
    I haven't found anyone else with quite this same problem.
    Any ideas?

    I meant do you have a third-party font manager, and I see the answer is no.
    And the font's don't appear inthe font list, or Find Font, at all?
    If that's the case I might sayt it's time to uninstall, run the cleaner tool (CS Cleaner Tool for installation problems | CCM, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3) and reinstall.

  • File + Edit menus missing from PSE9 trial version

    I installed the trial version of PSE9 and am having a fundamental problem with the Organizer. Various functions require me to access File or Edit menus which, according to the Help file, should be at the top of the screen but they are nowhere to be found.
    For example, I want to Move files offline to a CD or DVD. To do that - according to the Help facility - I have to start by clicking on File - Move, but nowhere can I find this "File".
    Does anyone here know whether these menus are missing from the trial version of the Organizer ? Or are they hidden somewhere ?

    Thanks very much.
    When forwarding this to the product management you might mention that this problem was encountered on a Window 7 Ultimate 64-bit system. I mention this because I have discovered the the "Ultimate" and 64-bit versions sometimes behave significantly differently from the other versions of Windows 7. In particular, some of my recently-purchased software has been unable to deal with the 64-bits, possibly because parts of them were written 10 years ago albeit purchased recently.

  • How do I move all my stuff from my trial version of FCP X over to my purchased version?

    How do I move all my stuff from my trial version of FCP X over to my purchased version?

    The application is entirely separate from your stuff. Your stuff will be in either the trial version or the purchased version.

  • If I purchase FCPX can I retrieve my work from the trial version?

    If I purchase FCPX, can I retrieve my work from the trial version?

    Thanks for the response!  Let me be more specific.  So...even though the trial has expired, I can still retrieve my project once I purchase FCPX?  Thanks in advance!

  • What is the impact of upgrading jdbc drivers from 9.2 version to 10g driver

    Hi,
    My application is built on Oracle 9.2 with 9.2 version jdbc drivers.
    To use Java objects mapping with Oracle object TYPES (for ex. STRUCT),
    I had to go for 10g jdbc drivers. Otherwise, I am getting an error:

    I would like to hear from you that, what is the impact on the existing application if I upgrade
    jdbc drivers from 9.2 version to 10g version?
    Please do mention all the impact.
    Vyshu

    JDBC 10g works just fine against 9.2 database. See the interopeability matrix on the JDBC portal http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/index.html

  • Can I transfer a project from the trial version of Final Cut Pro X to the Full version

    Can I transfer a project from the trial version of Final Cut Pro X to the Full version which I have now downloaded.

    The trial version is named "Final Cut Pro Trial" and the App Store version is called "Final Cut Pro".
    So, they can both be in the Applications folder at the same time, but only one can be open/launched at a time.
    If, for some reason, your trial is older (like version 10.0.4) that your newly purchased FCPX (should be 10.0.5), and you do not click Update to your events/Projects, they will NOT show in the bought version!
    Open the licensed FCPX and make sure it does update your things, in case it asks for it!

  • How do you upgrade from Aperture trial version?

    I have the Aperture trial version. When I open it, I get an option to buy it....and I have just three days left on my trial.
    So I click BUY - and everything flakes out. It opens a window or two, along with Safari, with a URL that doesn't work - http://www.itunes.com/mac/aperture
    One of the popups displays the price. When I click it, it says I can't buy it because it's already installed on my computer. I don't have a clue what's going on.
    Thanks for any tips.

    To buy Aperture you get the best deal from the App Store, not the Apple Store. The Trial Version has been discontinued. To be able to download from the App Store you have remove the Trial Version from the Applications Folder, but keep your Aperture Library and all the presets in your User Library. Then you should be able download Aperture from the App Store.
    What is your OS version? You will need 10.6.8 or 10.7.3.

  • Apply a DVD-ROM serial number to upgrade from free trial version of Lightroom 5?

    I got Lightroom 5 on a DVD-ROM disc as a gift for Christmas. I want to use it on my MacBook, but it doesn't have a disc drive.  I downloaded the free trial of Lightroom to my MacBook. Is there anyway I can apply the disc's serial number to my free trial download? Other ways to download Lightroom 5 and use the DVD's serial number?

    When you start the trial version, a screen displays indicating how many days you have remaining in your trial. On that screen is an option to indicate that you have a serial number. Choose that option, and you will be provided with another screen where you can enter the serial number.
    Take note that if you downloaded and installed the creative cloud version you will have a different procedure. It will be necessary for you to remove that version and install the trial version from the following website:
    Adobe - Lightroom : For Windows : Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.7.1
    Adobe - Lightroom : For Macintosh : Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.7.1

  • Launching EncoreDVD from PremiereCS3 (trial version downloaded from Adobe)

    Hi there
    I have recently tried to get hold of a
    try out version of Encore CS3. As I searched Adobe I found that the
    trial of EncoreDVD always takes me to the trial download of Premiere CS3. I searched he net and it seemed that Encore is included in Premiere. So I downloaded the
    Trial of Premiere CS3 and then installed and launched it. But
    I could not find that Encore being installed.
    I could also not find any way to launch Encore from CS3 except under File> Export> Export to Encore, which was grayed out.
    Does any one have any idea that how can I get a trial of Encore CS3? Please suggest.
    Thank you.

    >And could you please tell me what is the real major upgrade of Encore from DVD2.0 to Encore CS3?
    Addition of Blu Ray authoring & Flash output.
    There are no real changes to the basic DVD-Video functionality at all, with the exception of some bug fixes - the most important ones (IMHO) being the Chapter Playlist bug & the Stacked AVI clips going out of sync bug.
    PPro CS3 & Encore CS3 are integrated when you buy PPro CS3.
    There is no trial of Encore CS3 because of licensing issues.

  • Upgaded from a trial version of CS4 but still crashes

    I was wondering if anyone can help me.
    When I started my new job, they had yet to buy the new creative suite, so was asked to install the trial version of Photoshop CS4. I noticed this was buggy from the start as it crahes at random moments but especially when I try to save as gif.
    When the full version of Adobe Web Premium was bought, I installed it but left the trial version of photoshop on, thinking it will overright the trial version, however I had to upgrade seperately. All other programs work fine but Photoshop is still crashing in the same manner as before.

    Well, what operating system? To where are you saving your file? A server? Locally? Utterly possible that these are network errors. Also: OpenGL or not? Graphics card?
