    Hi,
    I loaded the photoshop software on my PC but after I shut down and restarted my system would not restart until I went through the restore backup procedure which removed photoshop. The photoshop files seem to be still on my pc but I can’t seem to see a startup file to get me going again.
    Can you help me to get the show back on the road again?
    Best regards,
    Ken

    I downloaded a trial copy of CS6 then purchased the program. When I installed the serial number I didn’t have an internet connection. After 30 days a window popped up stating that the trial had expired. I uninstalled the trial copy and installed a fresh copy. When I try to enter my serial number it says: This license has expired.

    Hey there Rodger, you shouldn’t have needed to uninstall the trial and reinstall the software – in theory you should just be able to activate the trial permanently by entering the key you bought. Nevertheless, there should be no harm in doing that either.

    If there’s no way you can get the software to accept your SN with Internet access on, then try contacting Adobe support via one of the options mentioned in “Product Activation” above.

    There are also other ways to activate the software… See this FAQ for more details:

    Yesterday I successfully installed Photoshop Elements 11. Seemed to work fine as I played around with it. Today I was asked to open Adobe Applications Manager to update Photoshop Elements. Everything went fine until I received instructions that I was to close ElementsAutoAnalyzer.exe. I can’t find that toclose. The Update stopped on Photoshop Camera Raw 7.3.
    Can you suggest what to do?

    I closed everything, including the Editor, but the update still stalls.

How am I to import my lightroom 4 into lightroom 5? I exported my catalog but it only seemed to capture 30% and those images I will need to relocate to use. Am I missing something very simple?

      Choose File>Open Catalog and navigate to your Lightroom 4 catalog. Opening it up will give you options to upgrade it. On Mac it is located here:

    I currently have Photoshop Elements 9 installed. I can never view all my toolbar menus unless I reduce the icon size for my enire PC to small…which is almost too small to even read. I’ve purchased Elements 11 in hopes that this glitch has been remedeed but still wonder 3 things.

    Does someone know if infact that problem has been fixed in “11”?
    Will I have the option to transfer my photos from “9” somehow?
    Must I uninstall “9” before I install “11”?

    I recently had to replace my trusty desktop which had Photoshop 7 and it worked fine.

    I tried loading the program on the new computer with Windows 7.

    I enter the product code for the upgrade of Photoshop 7 and it asks for an earlier version so I enter the info for upgrade 5 and I get an error message to contact you.

    So what now?

    I am currently running Adobe Photoshop Elements Version 7.0 for Windows and for some time now I have not been able to “Sign In” from inside the software to my Photoshop.com account. Instead I attempt to log in and receive an error message that reads as follows: “Photoshop.com services are currently unavailable. Please try again later or check your network connections. Error 400” I am not on a “network” and am not having any trouble with my internet connection. I came to the website, Photoshop.com and was able to log in and was recognized without any problem. When I click on the “Update Photoshop” option from inside the software it acts as if it is contacting “someone” and then says there are currently no updates available. Has Adobe stopped supporting Photoshop 7.0 and could this be causing my problems? I considered upgrading but would like to know why I can’t log into my account from 7.0 first. I have no other problem using the software at all, just can’t log in without receiving that error message. Thank you!

        Thank you for that information, which I promise I had called myself looking for and never found. I am relieved to know that I do not have to log in for updates, but what this link didn’t seem to address is that logging in is the only way we can use the scrapbooking artwork provided with and at one time downloadable, under the “Create” tab in Editor. I don’t do as much scrapbooking as I used to, but one does have to “log in” in order to use that feature before it will allow you to download any background artwork and since I can’t log in any more, that option seems to have become obsolete as well. Thank you and the fact of the matter is that I just need/want to update my Photoshop software and hope to do so more sooner than later. Thank you VERY much for all your help and support!

    Hi. I am wondering if anyone can help me. I recently bought a new computer and i would like to install my photoshop design suite onto it, however the box was accidentally thrown away with the serial codes. Is there any way for me to get my serial keys back? And for me to install these programs? I bought them very recently and as it was quite expensive I am very hesitant to buy the box again. I require these programs as soon as possible for my studies, please if anyone can email me a solution or put me in contact with someone who can help me I would really appreciate it.

      I think the best way to test this would be to try installing it. Both CS3 and LR2 were created prior to Windows 7. It could/should work, but not exactly a supported configuration. We have newer version of both Photoshop and Lightroom that have included newer OS support.

    I installed Photoshop 2014 because I was having problems with Phoshop opening up on my backup drive when I opened images from light room and often it would open the two Lightrooms.

    I installed 2014 and uninstalled CS6 Photoshop but it did not remove the program how ever it did remove the uninstaller for CS6. Now I can’t uninstall and need to get rid of CS6 because Lightroom is still opening two photoshops often. Sigh…..

      This behavior can occur when the serial number which is stored on the computer is removed (generally by something like a registry cleaner or similar application). When you launch and see the Trail screen, you should have a button that allows you to license this software. When you click that, you’ll be able to re-enter the serial number and make the product fully licensed again.

She runs Windows 8.1 and can not install her old 4.0, as it states there is not enough memory? Is there ANY way for her to get it to install?

    I am running Win 7 and trying to update LR 5.3 to 5.6. No problem downloading the installation package, but when I run the installer, it can’t find the Adobe_Lightroom_x64.msi file. The temp folder that should contain this file has not been created. Moreover, I get the additional error message “Error 1714. The older version of Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.6 64-bit cannot be removed. Contact your technical support group. System Error 1612.” Thanks in advance for your help.

    Serial# problem/Install problem
    I’m trying to install PS 12.1 (or PS CS5.1) on my “new” 2012 Mac Pro (Intel chip), I’ve just upgraded my computer this year (2014). I purchased the PSCS5 upgrade, (in advance of getting my new computer), right from Adobe on 2/28/12 when you were running a 20% off special. The email ad stated “Upgrade to the latest Adobe Creative Suite edition or individual product from CS2, CS3, CS4, and save 20% instantly. The install procedure is not accepting my CS2 serial number-it’s saying it’s not for a qualifying product. I’ve tried with & without the hyphens, and I’ve tried the 24 number code & a 20 number code from the PS “About” menu item (which is the same number without the last 4 digits). My original Mac Pro is a G4 Power PC 2002 desktop (Motorola chip) running Tiger OSX 10.4.11, that’s what I installed Creative Suite 2 Premium on. I’m now trying to install PSCS5.1 (or PS 12) on my new/used Mac Pro 2012 (Intel chip) running Mt. Lion OSX 10.8.5. I posted my serial number on “My Adobe Account” page manually for PSCS5, but it is not installed on my Mac yet. Please help I’ve been trying for days to get thru to Adobe customer service on the phone and online chat to no avail.

    I have installed Photoshop Elements 12 but I can’t seen to use the editor function. Every time I attempt to use it I get a “sign in” screen. I sign in but nothing happens. I can get into the organize function but can’t edit anything. That is why I purchased the software. I have updated but nothing. Should I reinstall?

    Hi,

    We bought CS5 extended (student/teacher) for our MacBook in 2011. I have just bought an iMac and want to transfer the product to this. I have ‘disabled’ and uninstalled CS5 on the MacBook. However, I can’t find the serial number for our product anywhere.

    I’ve searched out email accounts for the subjects ‘Adobe’ and ‘Your serial number’, I’ve checked the product box and slipcase – nothing. When I sign into our Adobe account it says we have no products.

    I’ve installed the trial version of CS5 on the iMac but need to locate the code before this expires in 28 days.

    Adobe chat support hasn’t be available for two days…

    Help!

    I purchased an unused, unopened copy of Photoshop 7.0 through e-bay. When I try to register, however, I get an error page – “Sorry, this page is not available – Error Returned – 404”. It also will not let me run updates. I’ve also tried registering through the adobe website, but it says “Please enter a valid serial number”. I am running Win 8.1 and have no problem running Photoshop 7.0. I would like to register my copy and keep it as up to date as possible if it is still supported. If someone could contact me via email I can provide you with the serial number.

    Thank you,

    Hi, I’ve just gotten the adobe creative cloud for school, and before I installed photoshop CC my older version of photoshop, elements 8, ran just fine. But once I installed ps cc it just crashes each time I try to run it. I’ve tried restarting, and I plan to try to reinstall elements when I’m home to get my disc. I don’t plan to keep the creative cloud once it’s no longer needed for school (unless I just get extremely reliant on it) so I want to have my old version of photoshop working. I’m willing to get a newer version of elements if I need to, but I would like to know what’s wrong first, would you have any idea?

    I fear I may be grasping at straws here but I shall ask anyways. I have CS3 on my current computer. It’s an older running Windows XP. It finally starting to bite the dust so I have a new computer ordered that will have Windows 7.1. My current version of CS3 was a downloaded upgrade from the previous version. I have the serial number saved in my profile.

    Is it possible to still download CS3 to my new computer? The old one is possibly infected with some virus issues so I fear that moving it from the old to the new via a PC mover type program may move something malicious to the new one. Being an older version of PS I don’t know if it’s a possibility or not.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Last year the laptop had some problems and was revived/repaired. The repair guy reinstalled stuff from the various backup installation CD discs were were sent to me at the purchase time by Dell. Today I went for the first time to use Photoshop again, and an Adobe page is asking for the serial number.. I have the number on the back of the paper disc packet, which says Made in Germany, and then has the 24 number code…..but I am getting a red cross X when I try to put in number, ie not being accepted. Can you tell me how to activate Photoshop as I definitely have paid for it. thanks, Will

I tried going to the website for help…it no longer is in service! I tried calling for help…was sent to another number which was out of service! I need this program on my new computer. I went to the Adobe site to purchase it thinking I would get support if needed! Apparently I was wrong. I am considering not accepting the charge on my credit card and buying a disc from some vendor!

      Hi Melissa,

      I don’t see any open support cases for you.

      Have you tried downloading your Photoshop C6 directly from here? http://www.adobe.com/downloads/other-downloads.html

      Do you get a specific error when you try and download?

      I’ll have someone contact you and work with you directly.

      FYI at $999 for Photoshop Extended you can have the Crreative Cloud Photography Plan @ $9.99/mo for close to 8.5 years:

      https://creative.adobe.com/plans/offer/photoshop+lightroom

      The Creative Cloud Photography Plan includes Photoshop CC, Lightroom, Lightroom mobile, and get all the product updates/upgrades (e.g. Photoshop 2014, 2015, 2016, etc & Lightroom 6, LR7, LR8, LR9, etc) for OS compatibility and support during that time. With the old model, you’d have to pay extra for upgrades in that same time period.

      One of the reasons for moving to this model is to make sure customers can keep up with the fast changing technology landscape where Apple and Microsoft are updating OSes every 12 months and introducing new hardware and devices at a faster and faster rate.

      Hope that helps

    Hello, I purchased the Adobe Creative Suite Master Collection about 2 years ago, and would like to put it on my new computer. I downloaded the creative cloud and started downloading the 30 day trials, as a help site told me to download them then put my serial number in. First I downloaded Fireworks, but couldn’t find where to put my serial number. Eventually when I opened and closed it 4 times, a register your product box came up, and I put my serial number in and its good. I went through the same process for After Effects CC(2014) and it said the code is not applicable. This After Effects may be a newer version of what I had but either way, I just want the Adobe Suite I had back, and I don’t know how to get it. When I sign onto Adobe’s website it says I have the Adobe Creative Suite Master Collection Version 6, so I don’t understand why it doesn’t allow me to download all the programs on the Suite I have, or give me a link to download the versions that the Suite contained.

    Please help me, thanks

I’ve been using the programs for about a year and recently something popped up to ask me to “log in” so I was confused and made a new account. Now, every time I launch one of the programs it says I need to buy it! What is going on and how do I get back to using it like I’d previously done.

      You will need to talk to your employer. If it’s a CC membership, make sure they’re account is active. If it was a serialized product, have them choose [License this product] and enter the correct serial #.

    It was my understanding that I would only have to activate Photoshop every thirty days as I am paying monthly. Instead, I have to activate it each day, or if I work on something in the morning, and then again in the afternoon, I have to activate it on the second opening. I tried looking through the FAQ, but was unable to find an answer there. This is kind of annoying and defeats the purpose. I have also had it tell me to activate it a few times each session. Is there a way to keep this from happening. I have enabled everything possible for it in my firewall and permissions.

    Thank you

      It sounds like a permissions issue that the activation token isn’t being saved correctly or perhaps a system or registry cleaner is deleting or modifying the licensing files. What OS/version are you running on?

    I have Photoshop CS3 Extended on my current PC, and will be switching to a new 64-bit PC soon. Will my current version of CS3 Extended run on the new 64-bit PC, and do I have to do anything to “deactivate” it on my old PC before it will run on the new PC? Also, how do I copy all of my old Photoshop ACTIONS onto my new PC? Thank you!

    Well I have to say that I NOW have experienced the WORST customer support ever, and that was from Adobe Chat.

    Trying to reinstall an OEM version of Lightroom after a computer failure (where I was unable to deactivate the previous install) I got a activation error and followed on-screen prompts to contact Adobe.

    After explaining my situation in the original chat request and providing my activation serial number, I thought it would be just a few minutes to verify my identity and the problem would be resolved….
    Well the responses were slow (up to 10 minutes in some cases) and after several times restating my situation and a few requests to download the latest version I had updated to the latest version but still had not activated the product successfully.

    After over 90 minutes of this back and forth, I asked “so how do I verify that my product is activated properly”
    I was told that Lightroom was not supported!
    Well needless to say the chat session ended after that… 90 minutes of my life wasted…. live and learn 🙁

      Hi Todd,

      Sorry you had a poor experience. I’ve asked someone to follow up with you. We do support activation. I do notice that your product is registered to your account.

      Lightroom 5 perpetual license doesn’t use server based activation, so you would not lose an activation from a computer failure for Lightroom like you might with a Photoshop.

      You should be fine to install on the new system with your existing serial #.

Photoshop 7.0 installed fine, presses finish and was told to select scratch disc. With new drive and no external drive I declined. Now 7.0 won’t start because scratch disc is full. No icon displays for Photoshop 7.0 as well. Tried hittingCTRL and ALT at start and choosing “c” as scratch disc but stll won”t start as scratch disc full message. How do I get Photoshop 7.0 to work?

    Hello,
    We’ve got a copy of CS3 that we almost never use. However, we need it for those occasions when we need it. Initially, we purchased CS2 Premium for windows and then later upgraded to CS3. Well, I need to install CS3 on a new computer, so I installed it and when it was done, it asked me for the serial number, which I put in. Then it asked for the CS2 serial number and asked which version it was for, and I put int he CS2 number and specified CS2 Premium. on Clicking “Next”, I get the following error:

    “Adobe Creative Suite : Incorrect Number
    The serial number you have entered does not match the product you have selected. Please try reentering the serial number, or selecting a different product from which to upgrade.”

    I have the correct serial number, even verified it in my account at Adobe as being the correct number. I have the correct version selected, Adobe Creative Suite 2 Premium, but just for kicks, I’ve selected CS1 Standard, CS1 Premium, and CS2 Standard. All selections return the same error. I even tried uninstalling CS3 and installing and activating CS2 on the computer then installing CS3 on the same computer. I get the same error.

    Can anybody offer a solution to this?

      Looking at your case notes it looks like you have a product mismatch (different mismatched suites) and needed an unlock code in the past (back in 2012). I’ll have someone contact you to get you fixed up.

      I’m not seeing any registered serial #s under your adobe ID (the email address you’ve used here). Make sure your serial # is registered. Elements serial #s from way back then were platform specific. Did you switch from Win to Mac or vice versa?

    I am subscribed to the monthly Photography CC plan (PS and LR) and when I log into my Adobe account, I don’t have any products. It states the only one I do have is Creative Cloud free trial. I am active and payments are up to date. I want to restore my computer and wanted to check my account to see if I have an option to re-install my apps, but I can’t until I find out what’s going on with my account. I tried to find a phone number or chat session with Adobe support, but no option, just forum which did not have anything pertaining to my issue.

    I hope you can assist me with this issue.

My computer hard drive failed (that dreaded clicking sound) 1 year and 10 days after I purchased it and I bought a new one. I have reloaded all my programs as I have the key codes for all the programs. Adobe won’t let me use my 9 because it is an upgrade and it says I need the code for the purchase of the full purchase which would have been a long time and several computers ago. What do I do now?

I already have photoshop CS6 on my home computer, and it’s registered on my account. I never registered photoshop on a laptop before so I should still have the right to register this product.
    When I enter the serial number, it says ” serial number is valid, but a qualifying product could not be found on this computer ” and then ask me to select a product and enter the serial number again.
    When choosing CS6 extended and entering the serial number again, it says ” this serial number is not for a qualifying product. try another “
    But it doesn’t work if I choose another product either.
    What do I do wrong ?

Two weeks ago my hard disk was damaged and I had to back up all of my data on to a new hard disk – I am still using Windows 7 Home Premium OS. Adobe CS3 has not worked since. I tried reloading the program from the Adobe CS3 Master Collection CD but I keep getting a message that setup.exe needs to be installed. Four of the elements on the CD could not be uploaded and I did not get to the point where the program asked for my serial number. Can I download this driver from your site?

    Is Adobe CS6 Master collection available on CD and if so, how much is it in Canadian dollars?

    I’ve been using Photoshop Elements 7 on an old Windows Vista for the last six years. I’ve upgraded to a new Windows 8.1 PC. I would like to continue using my old version of Photoshop Elements. Unfortunately I can’t find the disk. I do have the serial number. I retrieved this from my Adobe account and checked against the program as it loaded on my old PC. I’ve tried using it to activate a trial version of PSE without success. It’s my fault for not being able to find the disk but is there anything I can do? I’d be grateful for your advice.

    I need to re-install InDesign CS4 from a purchase made online a number of years ago. i have my serial number, but it does not seem to be attached to my account. This may be because I had a different email address back at that time. How do I re-install the CS4 program?

    Hello Jeffrey,
    I wiped the hard drive and upgraded the OS on my MacBook Pro, and I am trying to reinstall CS6 Design Std (student/teacher version), which I had purchased through the Adobe website several years ago. I had previously installed the Suite without issue on the same computer. Now, I am getting an error message which says:
    “We’ve encountered the following issues
    Installer failed to initialize. This could be due to a missing file. Please download
    Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem.”
    Adobe no longer offers the Support Advisor, and instead directs me to Support Forums, which I have scoured for hours. I cannot find an answer to the issue there. I have downloaded CS6 through my purchased product links, as well as through the direct downloads page on Adobe.
    Ideas?
    Thank you.

    My Photoshop CS5 will open and display this error message…
    The last time you opened Photoshop, it unexpectedly quit while reopening windows. Do you want to try to reopen its windows again? “Don’t reopen” “Reopen”

    If I select either option, Photoshop crashes. If I don’t select either option Photoshop will stay open indefinitely, but I can’t use it or make the error message go away.

    I downloaded El Capitan 6 months ago and it’s been working just fine until today. Is this Photoshop’s problem or El Capitan’s problem?
    Do you have any suggestions?

    My computer was stollen and the disks lost as well. I downloaded the CS5 Creativer Design premium which I have purchased in 2012. When I input in the licence numbeer I get a msg that it is not valid for this product.
    I got the number from my order on the adobe website. I need help as I must install this product ASAP.
    Thanks!

      I see a serial # for Adobe Design Premium CS5.5 for Windows under your hotmail email address on adobe.com.

      Did you install 5? or 5.5? That might be the issue. Also, serial #s are platform specific. Are you trying to install on Mac?

    I have just bought a new computer after y old one died. I have installed my legally purchashed in 2006 copy of Photoshop CS2, but I am not able to activate it. I called the telephone number and it referred me to a web page that tells me nothing about CS2, only later and newer versions.
    How can I activate my CS2? I am on the 30 day freee trial.

    I have purchased Adobe Lightroom 6, installed it and got my confirmation email from Adobe. I log on to the program and it shows a message that I have “30 days left in the Lightroom Mobile trial” in top left corner beside Lr logo. Can you advise what I have done wrong?
    Thanks

      Hi Paul, nothing is wrong. Lightroom 6 comes with a free 30 day trial for Lightroom mobile which lets you sync images between Lightroom mobile onyour mobile devices and the desktop version of Lightroom. If you’re not interested in the trial, you can ignore it and it will go away after 30 days – and your desktop application will remain activated.

        Thank you Jeffrey! The problem I have now is that I am not seeing the desktop icon for Lr on my desktop. I only see the one icon, which takes me to the mobile trial version. I really do appreciate your prompt response and help on this. Thanks again!

    I just purchased a copy of Photoshop 6 on disc and cannot get it to load to my laptop.

    My laptop is running Windows 7 Enterprise. But when I enter the serial number and try to load the s/w it says it does support Windows Vista. Need help.

      “Change the setup file compatibility mode to Windows 7 and run the setup file and check.

      Right click on Installer file and select properties option.
      Then click on Compatibility tab .
      Set the OS to Windows 7 and check.”

      Let us know if this works for you.

    Hello!
    I tried downloading Windows 10 on my PC, and it froze everything. Took it to a ‘professional’ who reset my PC to factory settings, therefor losing my Adobe Acrobat XI Pro. Is it possible for me to re-install this amazing product I miss so much? I bought it back in 2014 and registered it with Adobe. Thank you for your time.

    I purchased Adobe Photoshop 6.0 some years ago. I was trying to install it on another computer but can’t read all of the serial number or product key on the back of the box. I did register the product when I first purchased it. Can anyone tell me where I can get help on finding out what the serial number is?

    Yes, I purchased a adobe photoshop 7.0 upgrade. I still have this but it with the product key. When I try to install this it says I need to have a full version. I think, I used this to upgrade from Photoshop 6 to 7. I can’t read all of the product key on the back of the box for Photoshop 6. Can you help me find the product key to the Photoshop 6 that I bought?

    I purchased and installed the full Adobe Creative Suite CS6 approximately five years ago. During a recent computer service by a technician, my CS6 has been deleted from my computer; accidentally, apparently. Apart from the obvious immediate inconvenience and annoyance; my real problem is that I currently cannot find my original installation disc(s?). They were packed away and I have no idea where they are.
    Is there any easy solution to this? I do not have a spare $700-odd dollars to buy again. Thanks for any advice.

    Hi
    I have just purchased Photoshop CS3. It seems okay but I cannot activate it. I have the serial no. etc. and it looks as if it has downloaded okay but when I try to register, It says I have no internet connection.
    I have checked that Javascrpt is enabled. Is it okay to use with windows 7?
    Could you please help?

    I want to reinstall single app Photoshop Lightroom 6 to my new computer. I followed directions and signed out on my old computer but cannot seem to get download for the software to install on my new computer. I don’t want to get the monthly creative cloud and I don’t want to pay for another copy of Photoshop Lightroom 6. I have my serial number. I hope you can help me as I am not finding any support on the Adobe site.
