Why am I prompted to type in serial for Photoshop CC?

After what I've figured, you don't need serial for the cloud version of photoshop. I might be wrong, but I keep getting prompted to enter serial, but I can't find my serial anywhere... Help please?

This is likely your problem: Creative Cloud applications ask for serial number: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/ccm-prompt-serial-number.html
Specifically I would check your host files: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-issues.html#Troublesh oot%20connectivity%20issues

  • Why can't I swap my PC serial for a Mac one?

    Hi,
    Hoping this is the correct place to ask this question.
    My company purchased Creative Suite 3 and 2 x copies of Photoshop CS3 a few years ago - they have been in use until recently.
    We have since upgraded to Mac's for design purposes; I de-activated my copy of Photoshop before swapping over, only to find that my serial was not compatible with Mac.
    When I asked if I could just swap serial numbers, the Live Chat assistant told me off for not installing my Mac version with the original media (well I had a PC DVD so I couldn't).
    Would anybody be able to tell me what I can do without buying another copy? This isn't really an option. Many people do not even pay for it once, I don't want to have to pay for it twice!
    Thanks!

    You won't get much sympathy from all of us who pay for the software we use.
    What did you hope to gain from posting in these user-to-user forums where you're not addressing Adobe? 

  • Serial # for Photoshop Elements 12

    My mother and I bought Photoshop Elements at Sams when it was on sale.  We had not opened it up till now.  We went to install it and there is no serial number for this program.  I can not install it unless it has the serial #.  Why spend money on something that we can not install.  Please help us with this manner.

  • Where is my serial # for Photoshop Elements 11?

    I have just purchased Photoshop 11, and need the serial # to register. There are so many numbers on the packaging and none of them are marked (serial number) as per the info on Adobe. How many numbers or letters are in the serial number and how do I recognise this?

    if you have a disk, please refer to this kb article:

    you will need to get serial number from redemption code.

  • How can I re-enter my ID & serial # for Photoshop Elements 4.0

    I downloaded Photoshop Elements 4.0, installed my ID and serial # as requested, and now when I try to use the program I get a message telling me that my ID or serial # is invalid, and that the program needs to exit.

    Well, first of all, PSE 4 won't run on your macbook. You need at least PSE 6, I'm afraid.
    Also, that link was very confusing to many people. Adobe was not giving the software away. They just shut down the activation servers. Those downloads were really intended only for people who already had a registered copy of the software, not for anyone who wanted to try it, although it was greatly misunderstood because of adobe's poor communication. Even if it had been compatible, I'm not sure it would have worked without a previously registered serial number, although PSE 4 never had activation in the first place.

  • Why am I paying twice the monthly fee for Photoshop CC?

    I recently agreed a contract for Adobe PhotoshopCC and commenced paying £17.58 a month and I purchased a Lightroom download from Adobe. I have since noticed that Photoshop CC plus Lightroom is available for £8.78 per month which is half what I pay.  I already own CS4. Adobe do not have a link for customers wanting to question their rental packages. I feel that I am being ripped off!

    Hi TonyW14,
    If you have a retail version of CS4 product registered to you , it will be best to conyact Adobe as qoted in

  • HT201471 Why can't I just type in my apple serial number and identify which ipad that I have?

    Why can't I just type in an ipad serial number and find out what model it is?  This used to be a function of the Apple Tech Specs.  Why has it been removed?  If it is in a different place, where is it?

    Have you tried here? This will tell you which model of iPad you have when you enter the serial number.

    These are user to user forums.  Most of us are paying customers.  If you have a problem deactivating your software, you need to contact Adobe Support directly.  They can most likely resolve the deactivation for you, and might be able to assist further in resolving your problem.

  • Why there is a bandwidth limitations in serial ports

    hi all
    why there is a bandwidth limitations in serial ports ??
    like the highest one is 45 mbps
    but Ethernet ports reach 100 GB !!
    thanks,

    Dear,
    each standard has its own specification about media, connectors and protocols. Depending on the type of media and technologies that ware available when the standard has been defined, a maximum speed has also been defined.  The speed depends on the specific media (copper or optical, twisted pair or coax, cat 5 or cat 6), electrical signals (volts, waveform, clock), distance  between device,.... each protocol defines a maximum speed.  It's true that ethernet protocols have a very high speed but over a copper line they are also limited to 100 meters while other serial protocols, xDSL for example, can transmit up to 20Mbps over copper line over a distance of some kilometre. So speed reduction is often a way to have longer connections.

  • S30 Machine type and Serial Number are INVALID

    Hello, I am wondering if I can get some help here.A while back I had a motherboard replaced by lenovo service. The machine arrived turned on once and then it died.Once the tech left the machine was used a handful of times and then stored. I a now working on it and I noticed this screen, which appreared after the mobo replacements.  Iam wondering if anyone knows how to fix this issue. What is Error 00CE really saying? Thanks  

    It's really saying what shows on the screen there....the serial number and machine type are invalid.  My guess is the tech that replaced your board did not update the MTM/SN fields when he flashed BIOS on the new board (if he flashed BIOS at all), and those fields are still listing the defaults that are populated by the board manufacturer.
    Run the latest DOS BIOS flash package (I think current BIOS is 45 maybe for the A0 branch), and when prompted, enter the correct information from your system for the machine type and serial number.  That should alleviate the POST error you're seeing.

The SQL engine has no idea what data type the value for that placeholder will be. When itself needs to return a value via that placeholder to the caller, it needs to know what the limits/size of the caller's variable is that will be receiving the value from it.
    The way that the SQL engine knows what the data type and size are of a placeholder/bindvar, is by you the caller, telling it.. by binding the variable you will be using, to this placeholder.
    This bind process "exposes" the data type and size of the variable that will be used for binding (sending/receiving data).

    I have paid full membership 3 days ago but when i tried to open AI, PS and ID it still prompt me to enter serial no. I have talked to like 3 different customer service but still no solution and they kept asking me to wait. Someone told me to alter the hosts file from the forum but I don't see any hosts file from adobe, how do i alter the hosts file then? Why should I pay so much just for this kind of service? Please someone help.

    I will tell you honestly. I have tried almost everything to fix the issues. I even tried to call Adobe Technical Support so I can fix the activation issue but no answer after waiting for about an hour on the line. I ask the chat but they just kept saying wait for another 24 hrs it should be updated now it has been about 4 days and no changes. I am extremely frustrated to cause I need to work on my computer. So where can I get help? they prompt me to here btw, many many times.
