Dear users, 

 

If you have an Adobe product/subscription purchased from a retailer, reseller or received it as a gift card, you will need to redeem a code to start using it. 

 

Please check this article to learn the process: https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/redemption-code-help.html

 

Feel free to share your feedback in the comments below.  

 

Thanks

Hi there, 

I see you have an Adobe account under the same ID as with this community. The subscription under this ID stands cancelled and as per the conversation you had with our team, you will need to contact the reseller. 

 

Thanks

Nothing on this site is helpful. The DVD sleeve has numbers, commas, periods, slashes, and letters. None of it is accepted, no matter where I put them. The sequence listed above is way too long to fit anywhere. I'm giving up and will never buy another Adobe product. And I will let my hundreds of associates and friends know of my horrid experience with this software which I paid for but am unable to use.

How to Activate/Redeem Adobe CC Redemption Code:

  • Go to creative.adobe.com/redeem
  • Sign In or Sign Up
  • Enter Your Information
  • Enter Your Redemption Code
  • In the Keep Your Membership Current section enter billing info or click "remind me" to avoid enter billing info.
  • Start using Creative Cloud.
  • You should now see a screen that says "Thank you. Your redemption code has been applied."

Malheureusement, la réponse ne répond pas à ma question: où puis-je trouver le "redemption code" ou le numéro de licence. Je tourne en rond...

Photo shop CC 2014 does not need serial number,You have purchased Creative Cloud pour la Photo (un an) which is active & has no billing issues.

Please refer to Creative Cloud applications ask for serial number

I don't know which operating system you are working on so i am giving you some steps windows and MAC OS:

  Windows:

   In windows 7 navigate to following location:

     /windows/system32/drivers/etc

   1. look out for "Hosts" file

   2. Open it with notepad

   3. Check if you have any entry for Adobe

   4. Remove the entries and try again launching any product from CC

  Mac:

   1. Please click on "Go" and navigate to /private/etc

   2. Open "hosts" file and check out for any entries for Adobe.com

   3. Remove the entries and save the file

   4.  try again launching any product from CC
