Windows 7 Serial #

Hello, all
I'm having all sorts of problems with my PC and I'm taking it to the shop. I'm afraid it may have to be reformatted. The problem is, I can't find my serial number, either on the cd case or in the computer. I'm at a loss here--how do i recover my serial number?
Thanks for your help
Bill Krull

other than zigzag suggestion, if you have physical proof that you purchase your PC, maybe your reseller may help you to trace your serial number
Windows 7 always have sticker Windows on PC (if this is OEM PC), on the CD case (if you buy OS CD), or email (electronic proof) if you buy online. I suggest you also check at Microsoft activation center support to check whether this serial number is
valid after you got from method provided

  • Purchased  PS Elements 13 from Mac (Program Inside function) - but got Windows Serial only

    I just purchased the trial Version of PS Elements from inside of the program menu.
    After Purchasing had been done, I entered the received Serial Number as stated in the mail.
    But I got always the message, that the serial number is invalid.
    After I checked the download data in at the adobe membership home, it was only possible to receive a windows version (sic!), which is rather unlikely to be needed, if bought from inside of an OS X trial version.
    I did not make any other statements in the order dialogue than selecting the Paypal option.
    The ordering was done with the use of safari under OS X 10.10.
    So please, how could I register my purchased program now correctly and receive the mac download and a WORKING serial?

    Plz read before writig:
    I checked my account but the serial number is not working and it is only possible to download a windows version from there..
    I always get the message that the serial is incorrect, how often I check and enter it.
    Is it possible that an error in the OS X order routine lead to a wrong windows serial?
    How do I get a working serial for OS X for my in-app purchase?

  • Blocked WIndows Serial Key

    Dear Respected, 
    I have purchased this HP envy laptop (15-j050tx) and somehow I lost my recovery partition. Now I did a clean installation of Windows 8.1 (64-but) using Windows Media recovery tool but it is not accepting the serial Key embedded in BIOS / Motherboard. Windows is telling me that my recovery key is blocked. Yesterday talking to a Microsoft agent he told me that my windows serial key is blocked by manufacturer (HP). I donot know why HP blocked my serial key. I want to use embedded windows serial or when I install other software (Windows 8.1 Pro) downloaded from my university MSDN link it does not work and my system always fall in problems (may be getting a conflict with motherboard serial key or something else). Kindly help me in this regard and please tell me the way how can HP unblock my serial key so I can use it.
    Saluti, 

    Hi
    There is no benefit in opening a new thread again.
    Your issue has been already escalated by me and someone from HP would be soon looking into it. Be patient and wait.
    Please don't create a new that regarding this issue and make a confusion out of it.

  • Windows serial number

    Hello,
    I am trying to figure out a copy protection scheme for an executable built in LabVIEW.
    Our current stratagey is to get the Windows serial number and ask the user to enter an activation code.  The actiavation code would be some algorithim that would be a function of the serial number.
    My first question is how do I get the Windows serial number in LabVIEW?
    Are there other copy protection stradgies that anybody could recomend?
    Thanks

  • Can a Windows serial number be used on a Mac for CS6?

    I recently purchased CS6 for a Mac and the seller accidentally sent me a Windows package. If I download CS6 from Adobe, can this same serial number be used to activate the programs on my Mac or do I need a Mac package with matching serial number? Thanks in advance.

  • Changed from Mac to Windows, serial number won't work.

    I have been using CS4 on my Mac for a couple of years but just got a new Toshiba laptop and using Windows now. I have downloaded CS4 but serial number is not working, I assume because the serial number is for mac. Is this right? Can I get a new serial number for windows without having to buy one? Any help would be great thanks

    As you suspect, serial numbers for Creative Suites are platform specific.  Unfortunately, platform swaps are only supported for the most recent versions, which is now CS6.  Adobe does not sell older versions of their software so you would not be able to buy a Windows version from them anyways.  CS4 is not in the upgrade path for CS6, so you would not be able to purchase an upgrade version either.
    So your options would be to either purchase a full version of CS6, subscribe to the Creative Cloud, or find a third party vendor for CS4 and take your chances purchasing from them.

  • Reuse LR 4 windows serial number for mac version

  • CS6 (Windows) Serial suddenly not recognized

    Hi there,
    I noticed my Acrobat X Pro (part of CS6 Design Standard (Windows) wouldn't start. When I uninstalled it and tried reinstalling it, the Installer would not recognize the serial number. Please help!
    Ray

    Hi rul301
    You mean, when you launch Acrobat, it doesn't launch and nothing happens.
    If yes,
    Please refer : Doesn't launch after 30 days | Installed as part of a CS6 suite

  • Transfer Windows serial number to Mac

    I own Web Creative Suite CS5 for Windows, but I don't own a Mac anymore. Is there any way Adobe will give me a Mac serial instead so I can still use the product?

    Yes my question is going from Win to Mac on Suite CS6, is it possible?

  • Can I change default settings for Windows Serial Latency times through LabVIEW

    I have a wireless data collection device my company makes that I am trying to use to test one of our other wireless products. The device sends serial data to a PC through a USB port. I have written an automated LabVIEW program to test all the functions of my new product. However, after pulling in data, I have realized that the serial data comes in very fast and requires that I change the default Windows latency time for the COM port from 16ms to 2ms to not miss anything. This is easy enough for me to do locally on my machine, but much harder for me to spec for an offsite CM.
    Is there a way to have my LabVIEW program change the latency time of the Windows COM port from 16ms to 2ms automatically?  
    Solved!

    I've never heard of this being an issue before.  Would you mind uploading your code so that we can see where the problem lies?
    Thanks!

  • PSE 8.0 Windows serial number work with iMac?

    I recently purchased PSE 8 for Windows, and so have a legitimate product key.
    However, last week I bought an iMac for photo editing, and I plan to couple Lightroom 2 for my raw conversions with further mods in PSE (can’t quite justify CS5).
    What I’d like to know is... if I download PSE 8 onto my iMac, will my Windows product key work?  And if not, is there anything Adobe are prepared to do to switch across?
    The Windows laptop won’t be used from now on, so all my editing is being done on the iMac

    No, but you can crossgrade. Contact Adobe sales (not technical support) and they will switch you over to the mac version for a minimal charge, just shipping and handling.
    (BTW, you do know there is no organizer in the mac version, so you need to prepare for that? Just checking.) EDIT Never mind, I see you're using LR anyway.

  • How to swap CS5 Design Premium Mac serial no for Windows serial no? [was: Yes or no? If yes how so? If no why?]

    Am i able to switch my Mac OS serial to a Microsoft serial without having to buy a new edition?

    CS5 is too old to qualify for a platform swap.  It is also too old to purchase from Adobe.  You can use it to upgrade to CS6 but you will pay for the upgrade.

  • Switched from Mac to Windows -- Now my Serial # doesn't work

    I recently bought a new computer that is a Windows unit -- my old laptop was a mac. I went to install my Creative Suite Software, and found that my serial code only works on Macs -- is there a remedy for this??

    Hi Ryan,
    Serial numbers are language & platform specific. So, you cannot use Windows serial key on Mac or vice-versa. However, you could get a platform swap done. Not sure, if this is applicable for your old version CS5.5 but it is worth a try. Order product | Platform, language swap
    Cheers!

  • Serial Number Upgrade window

    I've downloaded and installed Acrobat XI Pro with correct serial number. I get a window 'Serial number you provided is valid, but a qualifying product could not be found on this computer. To use this serial number you must own one of these qualifying products. Please choose the one you own and enter is serial number.  I've tried selecting products using the correct serial number and I still cannot open the application.  ????

    The title of your posting and the error message you receive indicate it is an upgrade.  You might want to check the price you paid against the full cost of the software to help determine if you purchased an upgrade or not.  Upgrades normally cost less than the full cost.
    Purchasing an upgrade has no relationship to your allowance to install on two machines.  If you own a license you are allowed to install and activate on two machines.  If you purchase an upgrade, each installation has to go thru the qualification process where you have to identify the version you are upgrading from along with its serial number.
    If you are certain that you paid the full price then you will need to contact Adobe Support directly to resolve your serial number issue.
