I get the message "serial number you provided is valid, but calling it a product was not found on this computer" when I try and install Acrobat Standard XI

I have a PC with windows 7 installed.  Reader Acrobat X and XI of Acrobat Pro trial version will work perfectly.  I bought Acrobat Standard XI, and there is a serial number in my account.  Acrobat Standard XI installs fine, but I get the error message after you put my serial number in, 'serial number you provided is valid, but calling it a product was not found on this computer

The message indicates that you have purchased a version upgrade of applications and it asks you to identify the previous version of this application you are upgrading, and then provide serial number.

If you had no intention to buy a version upgrade then you will probably cancel that and buy it at the price high.

    Hi Carl,

    It seems that you have installed Acrobat XI pro as an upgrade and an upgrade you will need a serial number for a product older Acrobat X, etc. 9:

    See, error: "this serial number is not for a product calling it" | Adobe Creative Suite

    Also, I checked with your Adobe ID on the forums and I can only locate XI of Acrobat pro upgrade recorded, please check if you have registered an earlier version of Acrobat on some another email to get this serial number.

    Let us know if that helps.

    Kind regards

  • Serial number you provided is valid, but calling it a product was not found on this computer

    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.

    Duh! 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.

    There may be ways to recover serial number depending on whether lr5 is currently installed on a computer (old) or you bought lr5 where saved from adobe.

  • 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

    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.

    You have entered a serial number update for version 6.

    To verify that you qualify to use the serial number upgrade, Setup Lightroom 6 tried hard disk for a previous version of Lightroom installed.

    Because he could not find a previous version, it is now asking you to enter the serial number from a previous version (version 5 or earlier) so that you version 6 update serial number can be accepted.

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • 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.

    The installer wants that you enter a serial number Acrobat 9 or X to prove that you are eligible to use the upgrade.

    If you have never owned Acrobat then you must return the version upgrade Acrobat XI and buy a version complete.

  • Serial number you provided is valid, but a product of the home is not found on this computer

    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?
