I purchased LR and CS4 premium as a student from the University Bookstore, some 5 years ago.  I started with LR, installed and used.  I never opened CS4 premium, as LR did most of what I wanted at the time.  I still have the sealed software.  I'd like to start using, as I now have need for the features in CS4.  I graduated as a student.  Can I still activate and use?

    GPloz that will depend on if you have a serial number or a product code.  If you have a product code then you would still need to be a current student if it is even possible to redeem it.

    If you have a serial number then it will be available under your account at http://www.adobe.com/.  You can find more details on how to locate your serial number at Find your serial number quickly - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html.

    Maybe there is a coupon code inside the box that would allow me to retrieve the serial.

    The link to student/teacher activation site showed that option....Adobe Student and Teacher Licensing

    GPloz if the product code was never redeemed then there is a chance it may no longer be possible.  Creative Suite 4 was released on October 15, 2008.  I would not be surprised if there was a period of time specified to redeem your product code for a serial number.
