Need serial number to install CS3
I had a Mac for 10 years and had installed on CS3. Recently, the computer broke and I was forced to buy a new. I bought a new desktop computer, however there is no port for me to insert the CD in the computer. Now when I try to get my serial number for CS3 Design Standard box, it tells me to go to www.myidentit-e.com/adobe/na... Problem is that I don't have to make an account for more than 10 years and I don't remember my account details (email / pass / etc.) So basically, I feel that I hit a dead-end. I called customer service and they told me to do a post on these forums to see if anyone could help me. Is there somewhere I can go in person with the discs and the box to get the serial number? I really need this redownloaded program on my computer that I use it for school and work and I cannot afford to buy a new program! PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME!
It is strange that you would be rerouted to myidentit portal. This is usually to check the status of student. Is your CS3 version education? Also, are you sure that you enter a serial number or is it possibly a redemption code? Redemption codes are used when you buy software from a third party reseller. They are generally alphanumeric and entered once to get your serial number, which counts only. I ask because the entry of a redemption code could take you the myidentit portal to check the status of education, but a serial number should not do that.
I would recommend going on suggestions in this help document to see if you can check/retrieve your serial number: find the serial number of your product Adobe quickly. I know that you said you don't remember your account details, but maybe you can make a guess to this e-mail you used 10 years ago. Your e-mail address = your Adobe ID, and you can use it to to sign in-Adobe ID to get the serial number.
I doubt that it is doesn't matter wherever you can go in person with the discs and the box to get the serial number. Once again, if you bought CS3 from a retailer, the numbers on the packaging are probably redemption codes, and you must go through the steps to quickly find the serial number of your Adobe product. If you purchased directly from Adobe and the numbers are indeed a serial number, you should be able to enter it when prompted during installation without a redirect to myidentit.
By the way, since you do not have a CD drive on the new computer, you can download CS3 directly and install it: products download Adobe Creative Suite 3. Make sure you download the correct version you have (IE. CS3 Design Standard, not one of the other links). Your serial number will work for the suite that you have purchased.
Finally, Szalam is right that CS3 may not work on the new Mac operating system, which is El Capitan. CS3 is nearly 10 years old and has not been tested on modern operating systems. That said, it is worth it, especially for us poor cash flow types.

What exactly are you installing?
Reader is a free software from Adobe and doesn't require any software license serial number.
It seems that you download Acrobat.

need serial number of windows 3.1 to install on the 6.2 BACK
Purchased Windows 3.1 (correspondence, turned out be an OEM IBM floppy game) a few months previously to install on a stand alone machine BACK and it didn't come with a serial number. I had lost my other serial numbers for my win 311 diskettes, so could not install, it's why I did it. I don't want this configuration on my Windows 7 computer.
It's been a few years since I've played a bit with Windows 3.1, but I remember well, there wasn't any place the installation type in a serial number or product key. If you already tried to install it, I suggest all this and I think it will work.
As a side note, Win 3.1 was the standard version and has 6 disks while Win 3.11 is the version of working with networking groups and 8 floppy disk drive.

Hi, years ago (probably 2011), I bought Adobe CS6 suite. I know that I bought a 3rd party - as a digital download. But it was a legitimate purchase and not an illegal download. I went through my email to find the serial number and I can't locate.
I need to get my machine wiped and a new operating system installed. I have a time machine backup of everything - but I fear that when I do that, I need the serial number to enter if things do not copy smoothly.
I contacted adobe and they do not have serial numbers. Can you help me with?
Please, I beg you! I will be the copy of the software on the same computer.
Thank you!

How to find my original serial number for Photoshop CS3 Extended in CS6.
Hello
I try to install Photoshops CS6 extended on my new computer. I downloaded the software installation and input my CS6 extended (upgrade) serial number, but it must be original CS3 Extended serial number as well. That was purchased through a box & disk before them downloads. Needless to say, I don't have the box, but I still have the program running on my old computer. Is there a way to look up while CS6 is open on the old computer?

Need serial number for product code
Anyone know how I can get the serial number for Photoshop teacher edition product code? I want to install on my new laptop and have no serial number nor do I know where to go for this SN.
Hi Marlene,
If this is the edition of creative cloud that you will not need a serial number actually CC does not use them. I haven't used the version educational but suspect the installation procedure is the same as regular CC, and which differs only from the way it is paid for. You can benefit from this video

need serial number [purchased Photoshop Elements from Amazon]
I'm unable to locate a serial number of 24 numbers on the disc sleeve or packaging of the Photoshop elements I bought from Amazon. Can someone please?
You need to continue by the seller on Amazon. The links below can help, but the main thing is that the person who sold you the license must provide the serial number (or redemption code that allows you to get the serial number).
