InDesign CS4 Installer cannot validate my serial number upgrade CS design premium
Hello, I need to use an older version of InDesign to work with one of my clients. I have the physical box of CS4, but I can't use this installer because it is on DVD and I just got a new iMac without a hard drive. So I downloaded of Abobe, InDesign CS4 Setup, but when I try to validate my code it does not work. My physical box of CS4 is a Design Premium UPGRADE version, but the InDesign Installer is not validate my old number CS3 either. I tried phone support, no use: no support for these former products supplied (shame). Since I regularly bought all my CS versions from a dealer here in Italy it's extremely embarrassing, and I lose a precious time for this instead of working on a project. Can anyone here help with this please? Thank you.
The product you are trying to install/activate must be the same product for which the serial number has been assigned originally. If the serial number is a suite then you must install using the suite. Each product can be installed outside the suite.

You are using a Mac or Windows computer?
Make sure there is no hosts blocking Lightroom entry onto the Adobe servers.
Follow solution 3 referred to in article Solutions to connect, activation and errors in connection with creative cloud and Creative Suite applications

Adobe is unable to validate the serial number for CS6 Design Standard. What's not?
After purchasing and downloading and installing the package CS6 serial number Design Standard are requested. After completing the SN (as sent), I get the following message: "we are unable to validate this design CS6 serial standard." What I am doing wrong
That entries don't block the product onto the Adobe servers.
Move your hosts on the desktop file and open it from there.
Then delete the entries like "127.0.0.1 lm.licenses.adobe.com"(do not all Adobe-related entries).
Once you have deleted, close window hosts.
Drag the file back to the etc folder and replace it with the original hosts file... (open once more hosts and confirm that there is no entry of adobe.
Then try.

I have recently restored a HP DV7 3063 cl laptop that died a hot mother (MB). I replaced the MB with a new Board of Directors of HP when the price has been reduced to $100, updated the CPU with an announced as new AMD 640 M and applied Arctic Silver on CPU and graphics chips. I put in 4 G memory cool, got the computer to work and installed Windows 10.
However, I have several problems:
The BIOS cannot locate the serial number of the motherboard during the boot process and sends a message to the effect. I hit the ENTER button start continues.
I tried to access the BIOS to enter the serial number or other possible solutions, I found online. Help forum a HP had a BIOS software tool for editing of Compaq in 2000 but said it would only be on the desktop and HP staff will provide a BIOS for my laptop.
2. I get two error messages that
PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of
PXE - M0F: Exit PXE ROM
I didn't know all the patches for this issue, but it only delays the process of starting shortly before it continues.
Finally, the computer starts Windows, but other problems.
mhscholder,
There isn't any publicly available method to update information in the BIOS. HP only authorized service providers can update the MB after installation. You will get this message during boot every time. You also won't be able to run a recovery since the recovery media is looking for this information.
The PXE errors generally occur during the initialization of the network is listed in the boot order before the hard drive.

Same message when installing "We are unable to validate this serial number for Adobe Acrobat"
I bought an upgrade from live Adobe for Acrobat Pro DC. Adobe shows my latest Acrobat X Pro version. Yet, when you go through the steps to install I get the same message repeatedly: we are unable to validate this serial number for Adobe Acrobat Pro. I purchased from an Adobe reseller (I checked that they are an authorized dealer) 6 Lightroom for which I also have the same message. Online tech from Adobe technical support is severely lacking. If anyone has a solution or knows the problem, please advise.
When you start the installation of your dc acrobat you will be asked your serial number of dc. After that you see the error message, or you see a drop-down list with a list of upgrade products (which include acrobat pro x) eligible?

Hi mhk2015,
Move the hosts file from the folder/etc on desktop and then modify it, delete all the entries from Adobe, once done save the file, and then bring it back to its original location that is in the folder/etc.
Please check if it allows you to do this, on the other as suggested above please contact the customer service.
