If you have logged in then you should be able to see a section called Plans and Products.  If you have not yet gone that far then you might need to choose Manage Account and then log in again.

If you did not register the software it is not likely to be found in your account.  Activation (which you do to be able to use the software) and registration (which you do to let Adobe know you own a license) are not the same animals.

You will need your serial number as well as which version this involves.  Check your account online for the serial number - if you ever registered the purchase it should be there.
