Using packaged install, asks for serial. Proxy issue?

We have a very tight proxy on our production machines, we are trying to install a package created from the Creative for Teams packager on one of these production machines and it's asking us for a serial number.
I've allowed *.adobe and adobelogin.com is there another domain that it needs to connect to to get the proper licensing info.

Search is your friend....

IWork install asking for serial number even though installed from disc set

Ok so two days ago I bought a MacBook Pro from Best Buy. It was one of those open package deals. Anyhow the MacBook was missing the software. I decided it might be a good idea to buy the Mac Box Set at the local Apple Store because I might need the OS disc at some point and I thought why not upgrade my iMac while I'm at it. So I went to an Apple Store and bought the Mac Box Set
I install Snow Leopard. I then install iLife. Lastly I install iWork. Sort of. Seems the first two are fine but when I click to open any of the iWork apps it ask for me to insert a serial number. I did a search and discovered there was a trial version of iWork 08 on here so I deleted it and the current instal. The reinstalled. Still same issue.
What should I do if it is still asking for a serial number?
And just incase anyone is wondering if I have the disk....

Good, there are many answered threads to your specific question.

Lightroom 5.7 just installed, asking for serial number, not listed in online account info

My online account info shows serial numbers for versions 2,3, and 4 of Lightroom, but not 5. I've been using 5.2 for about a year, since I signed up for the cc photography bundle. My cc desktop app shows only PS cc and PS 2014 installed. How can I get a valid serial number to activate the LR 5.7 I just installed as an update?

I have the same thing happen to me. Every time I start Aperture, it asks for the license. Once I have entered the license key it lets me use the application. However, the next time I use the application again, i get the same problem. I have tried reinstalling the application, and am asked for the license key at the beginning of the install and again once the package is started. To no avail. And I get no other messages.
I called Apple Support, and after booking a call with a support person (a Genius?), I got one who, after reading the summary of my problem in the service request, said simply "this is for Aperture? Aperture is a Microsoft product, you have to call Microsoft". And that was that.
Please, anyone have any ideas?

Installed Photoshop cc 2014 asks for serial # - corrupted Windows file permissions

More of a warning / heads up to all than a question - installing Photoshop cc 2014 [via the CC manager app] caused some Windows file (security) permissions to become corrupt corrupt on my system. Symptoms include cc2014 asking for serial number validation on startup (when, as a cloud version, it should not do so), then being unable to connect to the internet when you press the 'validate serial' button so getting that window into infinite loops, and - a real pain in the *** when trying to fix the above - causing abends of some windows shell functions that in turn cause windows explorer to crash and restart.
Anyhow, digging into this (fortunately, I am a long time Windows SysProg) I discovered that for reasons unknown, either the CC master app or the actual Photoshop cc2014 installer (or both) are changing file access control permissions on a number of files, mostly DLL's. Most of the files affected are in the (normally hidden) Program Data directory on the windows root disk, Some of them are in the Adobe subdirectory - so fair enough if they want to fool around with their own program - but others being changed are in the Common Files and Microsoft subdirectories. I cannot for the life of me figure out why this is necessary nor why Adobe feel the need to touch files that 'do not belong' to them - something dangerous in the extreme as an external app such as Windows Update might replace or 'repair' the files so touched, and if Adobe / CC are relying on file permissions on non-Adobe files, such changes could result in all manner of random and spurious problems / error messages occurring.
Anyhow, if, fellow Photoshop cc 2014 user, you get this happen to you then you can fix the file permissions by opening a console window [also called a "DOS box", or "command prompt" depending on your age and knowledge... 8-) ] and run the windows file checker with the command
"sfc /scannow". Make sure that you use 'run as administrator' to open the console window, or you'll get an error about sfc only being available to administrators. Also a very (very) sensible idea to close all non-essential running applications first to prevent any possibility of weird interactions happening.
Finally, check that the 'hosts' file in [root drive]:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc is valid - for some reason, it looks like the install tried to check or update this file (again, I have no idea why) but the result was a corrupted hosts file, which I assume is the root cause of the 'unable to connect to host' type internet error messages. Copy the file, rename it as 'hosts.txt' and edit it with notepad or wordpad. Look for lines containing garbage strings at the bottom of the file (any line that starts with a # ignore, it is a comment, and any line that has IP addresses or host names should be ignored - though if they reference a site such as "someserver.adobe.com" you might want to treat them with suspicion if you continue to get internet 'cant connect to site' type errors.
Anyhow, when I fixed these two sets of problems, Photoshop cc 2014 started 'right first time' without all the BS messages about serial numbers etc.
Hope this helps somebody out there in AdobeLand......

Update: I tried several times to reproduce the error, actually it dosen't occur. I changed nothing on my system, without reboot it twice. This is what I said in my beginning times: it occurs sometimes but often. I will keep you up to date.

Firefox any version Mac, has a bug were it does not see or ask for the proxy username and password. This happens if you use a virtual tagged interface.

Firefox any version Mac, has a bug were it does not see or ask for the proxy username and password. This happens if you use a virtual tagged interface. A recent network University policy change. The only way to fix this, is if you use a manual proxy configuration in Firefox. So all 100 + uni iMac's can only use Safari as I would need to do a profile push to all 300 students and I am unsure what file carries the proxy information.

Adobe Application Manager Keeps Asking For Serial Number

I bought CS6 Design Standard a few days ago, and although I have already validated the software, these last couple of days every time I open Photoshop, Adobe Application Manager thinks I am using a trial version and asks me to choose between continuing this trial and licensing the software. After I enter my serial number everything works fine but it is a nuissance to be entering the serial all the time. I never even had a CS6 trial installed on this computer before. Is there a way around this? Is this happening because of my firewall settings? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Hello there,
Rather than starting a new thread, I prefer to pile up on this one.
I have the same problem. Quite regularly, Adobe Application Manager (AAM) ask me if I want ot carry onthe trial or enter a license. I entered my license so often that I know it by heart now.
I'm under OSX 10.6.8 (iMac desktop), French language (same for CS6 standard).
I have only one user, and it is an "administrator".
Rather than asking about privileges, what are the files this application manager need access to? Where are they located? Which file? Who should be the owner and what should the permission be on those files? Would a "Repair permission" fix this for these application files (i.e. non system files)?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Pierre
PS: The same CS6 is installed on a laptop under 10.8.2 (with same serial). I use it rarely. But there it does not seem to have the same issue. So far, AAM did not ask for serial again and keep updating happily.
