Re-setup of Acrobat fails for allegedly bad serial number
Hello.
I have problems to re - install Acrobat 8 (CS3) on Windows 7 64 bit, the program supports a bad serial number. By mistake of course, since I use the original DVD. The story seems to be important.
History: I installed CS3 years, including Acrobat 8, and it went smoothly all the time. This is from the years, I've migrated to Windows 7, yet everything was fine.
Last week, I installed a trial version of FrameMaker 12; Creative cloud has been installed in addition, although I didn't want to. A few days later, I missed the Acrobat icon, the file "Acrobat 8.0" sought and found quite empty. And found a new folder "Acrobat 11.0" including the acrodist.exe but not 11 Acrobat.
To get it working again, I have re-installed Acrobat 8 to CS3 DVD. Worked okay, but enter the serial number (and pressing 'Activate') lead to a message "invalid serial number". What? How can this be?
Well, o.k. Acrobat 8 is not up-to-date, but I want to use my stuff. Anyone know what I can do?
Thank you
Guido
After all, I set myself:
I uninstalled Acrobat and re-installed (both through CS Installer). I thought, that should have been the same that repair, but obviously, it is not as easy.

After the hard drive failed, I changed my computer and reinstalled LR5. I've updated LR5 a few weeks before my computer crashed, so for you my serial number is up-to-date. After reading some tutorials, I'm suspecting this disabling was not made before reinstalling... Recommendations on resettlement in this case?
You actually have a renewal LR5 problem or ask yourself what you need to do?
Download and install the update LR 5.6 from here: http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates
Enter your LR 5 serial number and you should be ready. If something doesn't work, then, please describe the problem in detail.

I upgraded my Adobe Acrobat in 2009 to the Acrobat 9 Pro. I had to buy a new computer so when I installed Acrobat 9 Pro with my serial number, he now seeks a number of earlier version. It has been 6 years, so I don't even have the previous Acrobat program or it's serial number. How can I get my Acrobat 9 Pro activated with my current serial number so that I can begain to use the program.
You can try to contact Adobe and see if they can help. See if you can find a proof of purchase of the old version.

Failed to register the serial number for my Adobe Photoshop CS6 ID
I have a copy of Photoshop CS6 extended, that I installed it on a desktop and a laptop about 3 years ago. I am trying to replace the old laptop with a new one. I deactivated and removed the old laptop of Photoshop and installed successfully on the new. It is approved and works now.
However, I seem to not be able to save to my Adobe ID this copy of Photoshop was purchased boxed with distribution medium of DVD, without going through the download of Adobe, shaped so I have no purchase or download history associated with my identification code Adobe section "Registered products" web site says "you have not saved products. But when I try to use 'Save an older product', it rejects my serial number as invalid (with or without a hyphen). I get the message "Please enter a valid serial number.
Now, I just use this serial number to install Photoshop on the new machine. It must be valid; the installer must have checked before proceeding with the installation. The installer asked me to connect to my Adobe ID, and her newly installed Photoshop has already activated the first time I ran it, then Setup must have also selected using my identification code Activation Adobe should not have the effect side to record the serial number of my Adobe ID? Besides, shouldn't it have saved buying 3 years ago when I first installed it on both original machines?
In any case, it seems that I can't register this serial number manually, nor is it automatically register during installation and authorization. So how * can * register the SN for my Adobe ID?
-Dave
Update: problem solved.
Sheena from Adobe raised the issue in question. The Adobe ID of a member of the purchasing management of my business, which of course also managed buying and registered this copy had already been registered. So I do not need to save it and cannot in any way.
A suggestion to Adobe web site developers: If someone tries to enter a serial number that is already registered to someone else, the error message should say something like "this serial number is already registered. What he says now is "Please enter a valid serial number" without explaining why the existing number is not valid, and it is easy to interpret this message saying that the serial number is not a good Photoshop serial number at all. That's why I thought it was a problem to end Adobe rather than looking for someone within the organization who had already registered.
(Yes, it would have also been nice if company internal communication told me who managed the purchase, and that they had already recorded this serial number. But everyone is busy, and I do not have this information, then all I had to work with, it was the (confusing) error message).

bad serial number for lightroom 5
I'm experimenting Lightroom 5.7 on my desk. When I decided to buy it I couldn't find a page to pay 6 Lightroom (for desktop). I chose this, thinking it would give me a upgrade and paid online (AUD186). When I downloaded Lightroom 6 I discovered that it does not work on my 32-bit PC! And the serial number that I received does not work with Lightroom 5.
So now, I still have a trial version of Lightroom 5 but am $186 from his pocket. How can I transfer the payment on my Lightroom 5?
