Will my serial number work for old versions?

I am a teacher and have a newer version of the software than my students do. I would like to demo in the same version they use, but it is no longer sold - will my serial number work for older versions of the same program?

No, the serial number is tied to the version/license you purchased.  Can't you acquire the software in the same way that your students have to?

  • How will my serial number work?

    Please, how will my serial number work?

    Did you register it with Apple? If not, you would have had to write it down. Once the device goes out of wifi or if the thief turns wifi off...its gone. All they have to do is restore it as new, you wont be able to detect it again. Sounds bleak I know but its hard to get it back once its gone...no matter what Apple says.
    I really hope it turns up...I hate thiefs. Best of luck.

  • Is there a serial number given for trial versions?

    I cannot locate the serial number for my trial version? Anyone else have/ had the same problem, and if so, know where to locate it?

    There are no serials for trials. they run for 30 days without one and that's it. If you have problems, refer to this:
    Sign in or activation errors

  • Does the Serial Number work for Mac and Windows?

    I Purchased Photoshop Elements 12 it came with a Windows and a Mac Disc.  My Son just got a Mac.  I was wondering if I can install Elements on his Computer using the serial number I received from the Redemption code that I used  for my Windows Laptop?

    No. You need to buy a separate license or do a cross-platform change via Adobe.

  • I have CS2 and am interested in buying CS4,or CS5, or CS5.5 used. Will my serial number from my CS2 work for an upgrade version?

    Like to own hard copy CS at the cheapest possible price.
    CS2 will not work with Lion.
    I'm looking at used CS4 upgrade discs that are for sale.
    Will my serial number from my CS2 work for the upgrade?

    There are no upgrade paths from CS2.
    If you purchased used software you're pretty much on your own. Much of what is sold on places like eBay or Craigs List doesn't have valid licenses. Caveat emptor.

  • Upgrade from PageMaker to InDesign. What version is best and will old serial number work?

    I'd like to upgrade from PageMaker 6.5 to InDesign. Should I wait for InDesign C S5. Will InDesign C S5 support PageMaker? Or should I upgrade to InDesign C S4? And if I have an old serial number for PageMaker 6.5, how can I complete the upgrade? I understand the older PageMaker serial numbers are no longer recognized.

    I understand that Adobe is already selling InDesign CS5 and therefore you would have no choice if you want to upgrade. I would think that the easiest way of finding if your PM serial number applies for an upgrade is to try buying an upgrade. You don't need to complete the purchase if you don't want to.

  • Will a Serial Number for Photoshop CS5 Work for CS5 Extended?

    Hello,
    I've recently subscribed to Photoshop CS5 and Dreamweaver CS5.5. In my Order History, it says 'Photoshop CS5', not 'Photoshop CS5 Extended'. However the download links in my Order History does not work (yes, I do have Adobe Download Assistant--in fact, I used it to download Dreamweaver CS5.5 without any problems).
    So, I decided to download the trial version instead and enter my serial number that way. However, the problem is that I see Photoshop CS5 on Adobe's Products page, yet when I click on it, it leads me to Photoshop CS5 Extended.
    I don't want to waste my time downloading CS5 Extended, only to find out that my serial number for CS5 does not work on it. So my question is: Will a Serial Number for Photoshop CS5 work for Photoshop CS5 Extended?
    Thank you for your time!
    -Mari

    Resolved!
    For anyone else having the same problem: I contacted Adobe via phone, and they said that a serial number for Photoshop CS5 will work with Photoshop CS5 Extended.

  • I just got a new computer. I need to install CS6 to my new computer but don't have my serial number and my old computer will not download and install crative cloud!

    In this complicated case, I think it's important that you get your work in.
    The Photography Plan includes Lightroom 5 and Photoshop CC. Open an account with them and for $10 a month you can be back in business which I think nets you more than $10. It's what I do. You can do this immediately. You get two seats and they can be either Mac or PC.
    In your spare time you can sort out the license issue and cancel the plan later on if this is fixed.
    If you don't want to go there, then you will have to call Customer Service by phone and hope they can fix this.

  • Installing Photoshop CS4 from original Disk onto my new Macbook Pro.  Serial number accepted but now asks for the serial number of a previous version e.g. CS3 which I no longer keep.  How do I resolve ?

    Tina Hadley did you migrate/transfer your applications over to your new Macintosh?  If so this could cause problems with your serial number being recognized.  Please run the available uninstallers located in Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder.  Once this is done you will also want to run the CC Cleaner Tool.  Details on the use of the CC Cleaner Tool can be found at Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.

  • I am trying to load LR on my new macbook pro. It asks for the serial number. I enter the digits, but it says, quote, " This is an upgrade serial number. The serial number from your previous version of Lightroom is also required."

    If you still have the old computer and it is a MAC, the Lightroom 5 serial numbers are in a text file.

  • Where do I get the serial number from for Photoshop Elements

    Where do I get the serial number from for Photoshop Elements?  I need to use on a new computer as my old computer crashed.  Orignally the program was loaded with a download application online.

    If you registered PSE, go to the main page of adobe.com and look for My Adobe, then work through the links there and you will find a list of your adobe products and their serial numbers.

  • I bought the upgrade to Creative Suite 6 Standard, but during the installation I receive the message that the serial number of my previous version (CS 5.5) is uncorrect.

    I bought the upgrade to Creative Suite 6 Standard, and the installation system asks me the serial number of my previous version (CS 5.5). I insert it, but it tells me it is uncorrect.
    The machine where I'm trying to install the Creative Suite Standard CS 6 uses Windows 8 and no Adobe programs are installed here. When I bought the Creative Standard CS 5.5 I registered it for Mac platform, but I have also a serial number for Windows and it doesn't work.
    I tried to register a new product in my Adobe account, using the Windows Serial number that I received when I bought CS 5.5, but it doesn't work.
    Thank you.

    Yes, I have a TLP license, so which kind of upgrade should I buy?
    I'm an Italian user and I would prefer to contact support by web chat but I can't find it in the website, please can you help me? Thank you, I'm desperate!
