Could not load the LR 6 on my laptop - I get "update serial number: serial number you provided is valid, but calling it a product was not found on this computer."  I downloaded, from the Adobe Web site and given the serial number when I bought L

I'll put up a new Macbook Pro the retina, bought this week, and try to install the copy of LR 6 I bought in September 2015.  It is currently loaded on my old Macbook Pro.  I understand that my license allows me to install this on two machines;  This is particularly important now that I move from an old machine to a new one.

I downloaded the complete file of the LR6, but when I try to install, I get "update serial number: serial number you provided is valid, but calling it a product was not found on this computer."

I gave the serial number under my account on the Adobe website and delivered when I bought LR 6 September 2015.

It is said to "Select a product", but only gives me options of Lightroom 1-5, not 6.  My new LR 6 license is useless just 6 months after purchase?

I opted to buy 6 LR on perpetual license rather than a subscription monthly CC, as my country's currency is devaluing rapidly and I need to be able to afford access.  But now Adobe does not seem to recognize the validity of the copy that I own.  In fact, it is difficult to find a reference to LR 6 on the Adobe web site.

Can anyone help?

Thank you

It shows the message you have purchased an upgrade license, and it asks you to select the older version that you upgraded and provide older version serial number as proof that you are eligible to use the upgrade.

    I try to install LR6.  I have a valid serial number, but during the install process, I get the following: serial number you provided is valid, but calling it a product was not found on this computer.

It's because I'm trying to install it on this computer!  How should I proceed from here?  I have a HP Pavilion laptop with Windows 10.  I LR6 installed on my other computer, which is a desktop HP Pavilion on Windows 7, and now I want to install it on my Lap Top.  Can someone explain what is happening here and how to fix?

    you will need serial number of your previous version.  There is no work around.

  • First Pro CS6 license not recognized - "serial number provided is valid, but calling it a product was not found on this computer."

    I have a new computer and tried to get the first Pro CS6 installed. I have a license first Pro "Version 6"Windows - I can see in MY PRODUCTS. So downloaded installation for first Pro CS6 "old downloads" page - when I put in the serial number, it says ' serial number provided is valid, but calling it a product was not found on this computer. "there is a"select a product"drop down and the only thing on the list is Pro Prem CS5.5 - when I put in the liscence here It says invalid. Just to try, I downloaded the installation for CS5.5 and who does not accept the license at all. What can I do to get the CS6 running on my new computer?

    A bit of history which could be related, I remember that I originally bought first Pro CS5 from someone on ebay, not knowing that it was a Mac version, which would not work on my PC - so I contacted Adobe and upgraded to CS6 for Windows at a lower cost. I see in MY PRODUCTS there is a serial number for the two "Adobe Premier Pro" version 5 for MAC and Version 6 for Windows.

    Help is appreciated!

    Please can someone tell how I can improve on my first Mac LR using my existing serial number?

    Thank you.

    your lr 6 is an upgrade of a precedent (for example, lr 5) version.

    After you have entered your serial number lr6 you will be presented with a drop-down list of eligible products.  Select the ones you have.  then you will be prompted for the qualification (that is to say, older) serial number of the product.

    Enter the correct number at the right time and proceed with the installation.

  • Serial number I provided is valid, but calling it a product is not on my computer?

    Buy Adobe XL Standard, and that is to say the serial number I provided is valid, but calling it a product is not on my computer?

    barbara6692, you're saying that what you have is not labeled as an upgrade?

    1 if she asks for a "qualified" product, a version upgrade. He has to wear a wrong labelling and you need a refund.

    2. If she a version upgrade to Acrobat DC, you can pass only X or XI (10 or 11). 9 is too old for a discount.

  • You have entered the serial number is valid, but calling it a product was not found on this computer.

    This is absurd.

    I wanted to buy Adobe Acrobat, and somehow the download wound which is apparently an upgrade. So, now I get this error message and my ~ $170 purchase is apparently useless at the moment. Someone tell me please I na not to lose my money, and in fact, I can USE the software that I just bought.

    Thanks in advance.

    If you have purchased an upgrade, so it can work as an upgrade. Of course, you have the discounted upgrade price.

    If you made a mistake, you must contact Adobe and see if you can return the incorrect purchase. This seems to have worked at least for some in the past.

  • Just downloaded Photoshop CS6 - "Qualifying product is not found on this computer." Help!

    Well, title says it all. I just downloaded Photoshop CS6 (an upgrade from Photoshop CS3 Extended).

    I went to enter the serial number, and when I did, a box pops up telling me that the "serial number you provided is valid, but calling it a product was not found on this computer.

    He goes on to say: ' to use this serial number, you need one of these eligible products. Please choose the one you have and enter its serial number. »

    The drop-down list under products includes: Adobe Photoshop CS4, Adobe Photoshop CS5, Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended.

    Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended, Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended, Adobe Photoshop CS3 and Adobe Photoshop CS6 extended.

    Where is Adobe Photoshop CS6...?

    I am very concerned and would be very grateful to anyone who could help me with this problem.

    Thank you.

    Update: I decided to just re - enter the serial No. for Photoshop CS3 Extended and select the same option a few times more, and all of a sudden, he decided to work. To my great relief!

    The only thing I can conclude is that the system needed just a few minutes to update itself (maybe Adobe was waiting payment must be published by the Bank?).

    Either by the way, thank you very much for taking the time to answer my queary, Mylenium.

    Your CS6 must have been bought an upgrade.  He asks you to select/provide is the name/serial number of the previous version, you bought that qualifies you to install and activate the CS6 upgrade version... it would probably be CS5.5 CS3.

    I bought and followed the instructions to download for Adobe Acrobat Standard XI - I went to open using the icon on my desktop and it gave me the error "serial number you provided is valid, but a product of the home is not found on this computer.

    I then assumed that mabey, I had not downloaded correctly or finished downloading, so I followed the instructions, again and always got the same message

    Why? How to solve this?

    You have purchased a version upgrade.

    Only, you are eligible for an upgrade if you already have a valid serial number for Acrobat 9 or Acrobat X.

    If you do not have a serial number Acrobat 9 or X then you are not eligible for the upgrade. You must return the upgrade, you have bought and pay for a full version instead.

    http://helpx.Adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/return-cancel-or-change-order.html

    When you click on the button buy top defaults to I want to buy: update.

    You must then manually change in "Full" (or if you buy an upgrade, you must select an option of "I have")

    You leave on upgrade and then select an option in the drop down "I have", then complete your purchase without realizing that you were not eligible?
