Premiere Elements 14 - Serial number already used for the maximum number of allowed assets

[default59hm53savioq]

Hi there,

I installed Premiere Elements 14 on my new laptop and when I tried to start it, the message showed as you can see in the screenshot - too many licenses in use. I deinstalled Premiere on my old laptop, but still the same. Then I found out, that I have to deactivate / sign out and not (only) to deinstall the old Premiere. So I installed it again on my old laptop, chose there Help > Sign out.

But different than expected: Both laptops show this message now.

Can me help somebody here?

I didn't finde any other tips and am really helpless now 😕

When you can't deactivate a serial number
BE SURE TO ONLY ASK FOR ACTIVATION SUPPORT TO ADJUST YOUR ACTIVATION COUNT
You may need to PERSIST or TRY AGAIN to find a support agent with more experience

Be sure to remain signed in with your Adobe ID before accessing the link
Do be aware that Adobe's staffing is impacted by the virus, so wait times are long
-make sure that your browser does NOT block ads, scripts, or pop-ups
-you must also allow 'cookies' in your web browser for the link to work

Hi John,

great - the link worked after "accept all cookies", the support resolved the issue within 10 minutes.

Thank you for you detailed, helpful and quick answer. I will save your answer for later, in case I have any problems with a product of Adobe again...

Have a nice evening!

... and I received a untrustworthy private message - so that warning was true and helpful, too.
