Question

Serial Number

I recently purchased Adobe Acrobat X from my local Staples retailer. I requested that the software be the "full" version and not an update. When I went to install and activate it, I received a message asking for the older version's serial number. I do not have another version. I tried to return it to Staples and was told that they could not take it back and refund my money due to some FCC ruling and to contact Adobe. Has anyone else had this problem? I do not want to be out the money that I paid.
