What a nightmare, Serial Number is not being accepted. try the numbers on the discs, Yes I legally bought and own it,  and it won't accept it.

Final Cut Studio, I just got a new imac and transfered contents from prior computer. And Final Cut Studio opens to the licesning window, and it won't accept the SN. It was workign on prior computer fine.  But it will not accept the upgrade, or orginal SN.  What is a person to do? How can a consumer use the software that is blocked that they legally paid for because it is not recogining the SN, yes it's spelled correctly and it's not a zero versus an "0". 

Thanks, but the conditions on that page are very unrealstic. The Customer as to find a reciept from 3 years ago? With Purchase Date and invoice, heck have you been to apple store, oh we can just email the receipt to you. Well how do you search that years later, Not an option! So that doesn't work.
Apple Store onlne, Does not list software past 18months on their website. How inconvenient.  So that option is null too.  I did register it so I will try and call the Apple Sales Support tomorrow, as they are not open currently.  A lot of work to get a product to work that is legally purchased. This is why piracy so attractive.   Because when You play by the rules and buy software and many many hoops to jump through. We shall see but I am sure the phone number will ask, "oh did you buy some apple support for this?" well we can't help you unless you pay. 
The solution is to have the software be able to be installed with valid software, and/or have an online access that shows your SN, and allows you to cancel or regenerate a code.
Thanks,
Jason

  • I purchased CS5 Design Standard about 5 years ago. Now I am trying to install  second PC, but I got a message like " This serial number is not correct."  I want to know the correct serial number, but I missed my ex adobe ID because I've changed my E-mail

    It is not clear to me what your issue is with not being able to sign in to your Adobe account to find the serial number.  You should still be able to sign in and find your serial number if you registered the software.
    If your first PC is a Windows machine you might be able to extract the serial number from it using the Belarc Advisor

    You need to contact Adobe Support either by chat or via phone when you have serial number and activation issues.

  • Where is the serial number to Register Lightroom 3 upgrade? Numbers on the case don't work.

    Where is the serial number to register Lightroom 3.5?  Numbers on the case don't work.  Please respond to [email protected]

    Check the sleeve the CD/DVD came in for the SN, I never had a problem. When I purchased the LR3 upgrade from LR2 I chose a hard copy not a download. On the CD sleeve was the SN, and after installing and opening for the first time LR3 prompted for the new SN (not the same as the LR2 SN). As I recall, this was the process. Install, open, enter the SN. This resulted in 2 versions of LR available to me; LR2 and LR3. I found the process painless and fast. Subsequently I downloaded updates to  LR3.

  • My sim serial number is not being recognised. What should I do?

    I have just purchased an iPhone 5s and am transferring my number over to a nano sim. However my sim serial number was not recognised after several attempts and now the 4 digit code is not bbeing sent through when I enter my number. Any help would be appreciated!

    Not sure what you mean by "reboot".
    Have you tried resetting your iPad?
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
    No data will be lost.

    As mentioned by another poster, the article above directs users whose serial number is not recognized to call Apple.

  • Trying to download lion, but serial number is not being accepted what can i do?

    Im trying to download Lion to a new June 23rd macbook with an up to date Snow Leopard system, but apple doesnt accept my serial number.   What else can I do?

    What are you capturing from?  You may not hear the auido as it's captured but it will be there.  After it's captured can you see the audio waveforms? Do the audio meters move when you play the clip?  If so then go to "View" then "Audio Playback"  and set it to 'Built-in Output" if you're monitoring audio through the computer.

    Excellent Tattiehowker it sounds like progress is being made towards a solution!  I wondered if you would end up getting this error and actually reviewed Invalid user name, organization, or serial number error | Production Studio applications (Windows) - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/error-user-name-organization-or.html prior to providing the suggestions regarding renaming the directories.  Please try applying the steps offered in the document.

  • On January 2, I purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 and Premiere 13 at Office Max.  I've tried dozens of times to download and activate the software but I'm informed that my serial number is not active.  I need to receive the product I purchased.  How?

    Help!  Adobe instructs me to contact Office Max, yet Office Max instructs me to contact Adobe. What do I do? 

    Serial numbers have to be validated at the checkout register to be active and it seems like this one may not have been.  Did you buy this online or from a brick-and-mortar store?  And is the issue you're having with a serial number or with a redemption code?  I ask this because when I bought a boxed set of PSE13+PRE13 at Best Buy a couple weeks ago, it had a redemption code on the inner disc sleeve and a website to use to convert that redemption code to a pair of serial numbers.

  • I just put my serial number in to have someone call me about an issue, and it says my serial number is not valid.  I copied it from the apple in the top corner.  Any thoughts?

    Apple Support is saying my serial number is invalid, and I copied from the desktop itself.  Any suggestions as to why this would happen?

    When you say you copied it from the desktop do you mean Apple Menu > About this Mac > More Info?
    If your Mac is 5 years old or older it is considered Vintage or Obsolete and Apple no longer offers support. Instead of telling you it will often just say the serial number is invalid.
    What model/year is your Mac? You can also try entering your serial number on this website: http://appleserialnumberinfo.com/Desktop/index.php see what it comes up with.

  • Serial number is not working
