Fireworks CS5 - no serial number?

Hi, 3 years ago I bought a copy of Fireworks CS5 from a dealer who in turn it from another provider. I have a DVD, small box of product with a sticker of holographoc (and a 18 digit code) & email with the invoice from the dealer.

At the point where I had problems with the serial number and so has never loaded in demo mode on my old computer, was what I required with the program, put in a drawer & quickly forgot about it.

It turns out that (it seems) that I never actually got a serial number or redemption code from the 3rd vendor of party (which no longer exist) & the company that I paid money for cannot help, because they can become is no longer the serial number of the supplier out of business.

I tried the "find your serial number" page on the website of Adobe, but they are not helping me. The closest thing I have serial number is authentic Adobe holographic sticker with a couple of bar codes and a 18 digit code that looks like it should be the serial number (but apparently is not).

First question, if I don't have a real serial number & cannot come into contact with the original resellers, is there something I can do?

Note, please don't tie me to help code them redemption or to quickly find your serial number - I finished in these pages several times, but they do not help in this case, none of the numbers I have are 24 digits long.

Second question, if I can't get my original serial number (that I already paid money for that is), is there a (legitimate) way to buy a new serial number for Fireworks CS5 disk I have? All I want is Fireworks which is discontinued & I don't want a subscription, would be quite satisfied with the version that I have - if I could make it work.

Thanks for any help.

  • CS6 Production Premium upgrade + CS5.5 serial number on Ebay is legal?

    Hi all

    question, outside [email protected] which I don't think it would be appropriate.

    Toshcomputers sell CS6 Production Premium commercial upgrade with a CS5.5 Production Premium serial number, which is unusual.  I searched the Internet and did not find anything negative against Toshcomputers which guarantees their concerns; they have a very high rating on Ebay customer feedback.

    Y at - it no motive for CS5.5 Production Premium and Adobe not to honor the CS6 Production Premium license sold by Toshcomputers, Professional upgrade because they are genuine serial numbers of software as Adobe claims Toshcomputers?

No other Adobe software is required. This set allows for creation of an account any Adobe and Adobe, recording software, upgrades support, etc. Attention if you take account of the ads that do not specifically mention that the item is sent in the standard retail BOX, reemballees Adobe sales only DVD being common for product not authentic.

    (... etc)

    The only difference in our ordinary CS5 retail box, it's you, only once during the installation, enter two serial numbers. This product will register with Adobe and is eligible for a full Adobe support. We have sold hundreds of these sets in the world, check the prior eBay customer feedback.

  • Update CS4 CS5 with serial number incorrect from pc to mac

    I purchased CS4 a retailer recorded some time ago, but now when I try to save the download, it says the serial number is not valid. Now, I am unable to reach the dealer. I recently moved from pc to mac and want to purchse CS5. It is better to try to save the CS4, so I can benefit from the reduced rate to upgrade to CS5? Or change from pc to mac means I have to buy new software completely and pay full price?

    If I'm right, you are planning to buy CS5 where given by Mylenium article would not help because Adobe provides the platform of the latest swap.

    You will need to contact Adobe... They will check the CS4 serial number is valid or not... and will save it for you.

    Once registered you can immediately place the order for the CS5 on the reduced price for MAC, there will be no time to problem you have cs4 for mac or win

    You should be bothered to your CS4 serial number because if you buy the CS5 upgrade, when you install the product it will ask for the serial number cs4... .Hence get serial number verified otherwise, you will need to buy the new software completely.

    Depends on the number of series CS4, CS5 purchase is not the problem... you should have the correct serial number of cs4, get it checked.

  • Why can't I install CS5 extended on new iMac with my serial number?

    All I wanted to do was take my CS5 extended serial number and install 5 PS on my new iMac (they have more disk drives). However, my serial number is 20 digits and it does not work? Sometimes shy of numbers. Can someone explain how this can be possible? I refuse to rent CS5 when I already have a lisc. Thank you.

    You need get the serial number of your Adobe account on the corporate web site, once there go in 'my products '.  You can get the number from there.

    Adobe applications show that you truncated intentionally serial numbers, with only 20 numbers that you have seen.  The full number is 24-digit long.  That's done on purpose, not to encourage software piracy.

  • Why not the serial number is not recognized when I got Adobe?

    Why the serial number is not recognized when I got Adobe? I have an upgrade of CS5.5 Design and Web Pre3mium worm. CS6. I use the CS5.5 serial number.

  • I bought Fireworks CS5 for Windows own some time ago, but now a MAC, can I get the program that my serial key appears as invalid

    According to the title, in 2012, I bought Adobe Fireworks CS5 (version 11) to my Windows PC, I recently bought an iMac and after finding the download link on the Adobe Web site for older versions of the programs, it says my serial key is not valid.

    Is that what I can do or I'll have to spend £280 again?

    I look forward to hear your responses.

    Hi chewygmb1,

    The serial number is platform specific. You cannot use a different platform. You have the version of the Fireworks window, so it can be installed on the windows machine. There is also no option to make an exchange of Windows platform to the Mac as CS5 is no longer supported because we went to the cloud. If you want to use the application on a Mac, then you can go for subscription of cloud.

  • CS6 serial number of fireworks question

    I bought Fireworks CS6 and is just went to install but it keeps telling me that the serial number I have is valid but cannot find a product calling it on my computer and gives me the possibility to change the CS5, 4, or 3. It's a download.

    What you describe would indicate that you have bought/granted a level, not a full version updated version... it fails to find the previous version which qualifies you to activate the upgrade.  Perhaps then it is asking you to provide the serial number for the previous version as an alternative to installing it.

  • My serial number is not activate Fireworks 2004

    I am trying to record Fireworks 2004 and it seems to be, but when I reopen it Fireworks it asks me to enter my serial number again.

    I tried using the key of Adobe Fireworks 2004 (DELETED), but the same happens.

    How can I get around this?

    [NEVER SEND A SERIAL NUMBER IN AN OPEN FORUM.]

    [You gave your serial number to all who read this message before]

    [I removed the number... or those who receive all their messages of forum by e-mail]

    What operating system do you use?

    If it's windows vista or newer, you may need to run Fireworks as administrator for the directions adobe posted at work.

    "Cannot be activated" error in the former Macromedia products

    Right click on the shortcut of fireworks, select run as administrator, try adobe method posted here and restart Fireworks as you normally would and see if it sticks.

  • Serial number CS5 is not long enough.

    I have a copy of CS5, I would install on my new computer.  When I downloaded the software the serial code I have is a 16 digits, she requires 24 digits? What should I do next?

    You do not have a serial number, you have a redemption code, which without a doubt at the time already has been converted to a correct serial number. You just have it lost or not write it. Check your Adobe account for approved products. Otherwise, you will need to take with care.

  • My CS5 serial number no longer works. Should the initial charge be struck out?

    My mac has been cleared and had a clean install with el capitan. My extended version of CS % CD serial number no longer works. Should the initial charge be registered? If so, how?

    [Left the lounge general Forum for a place that is more likely to be able to help and short title - Mod]

    Just to give you a bit of a warning, likely of CS5 does not work on El Capitan without issues - according to which apps you are trying to use.

    If you disable your software before wiping the machine, you will need to contact Adobe. You will need your serial number or the handy Adobe Identification Code .

    Before you get much too far away from yourself, you could consider to put back your old operating system on this machine so that CS5 will actually work without problem. (Or just to get a subscription to the CC. It includes CS6, CC, CC 2014, CC by 2015 and whatever they call the version that just came out two days ago...)
