I have a new workstation and reinstalled Acrobat 8 Professional which I'm told is not supported any longer, is it possible for the activation number to be reset to the original (activation code removed by moderator, please do not post codes or serial numbers, as this is an open forum).

the serial number never changes with its mated installation file.  if you used a redemption number to obtain the serial number, it (the redemption num) can no longer be used.

you have 3 ways to recover a serial number that you once had:

1. you can check your account (if you purchased from or registered with adobe), https://accounts.adobe.com

2. if your adobe program is installed on another computer you can recover its serial number from that computer, (win:) http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html, (mac:)  https://mac-product-key-finder.com/

3. http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html

No I was not looking for the serial number, I was looking for a way to use an older activation code on an installation on a new workstation.

if you mean a phone activation, that's no longer possible.
