Thanks for the update, Mitchel. Did you remove the licensing files or run the CC Cleaner Tool as previously suggested by Kglad in https://adobe.ly/4h3Fjxv? If you are using your registered serial number, and it has not been revoked, then those steps should allow you to use the software.
If you are confident you have already ran the CC Cleaner Tool, without errors, then go to https://adobe.ly/4h1EQMm and click on the chat icon on the bottom right-hand corner of the page, Mitchell. You will be connected with a team that can help you if the serial number has been revoked or invalidated, but they won't be able to help if it is a licensing error, so please make sure you try the previous suggestions first as revoked serial numbers are not typically listed in an account on https://adobe.ly/4gSLNzv, Mitchell. ^JW

The bank would likely deny you without trying to cancel any charges, Default. Please also be aware that if you are using a device managed by your organization, they may be aware of this discussion you are having in a public discussion forum, since you are using the business account to post.
Our systems try to prevent duplicate account creation and purchases, so you may encounter an error when you create a new account under your intended e-mail address. If the account no longer exists, though, you can only create a new account with the correct e-mail address.
If you can regain access to the account with Adobe Stock, then see https://adobe.ly/3Xe9NpC. ^JW

Default: you should create an account under the e-mail address you intend to use; you could be facing extra restrictions by logging under the business account.
I recommend you start the purchase process for Adobe Stock and any other service under your intended account. If that account no longer exists then create a new one with your preferred e-mail address. Please see https://adobe.ly/4h1zDnM for information on how to add multiple e-mail addresses, to prevent loss of account access to a personal Adobe account. ^JW

I am sorry, Default. You may have purchased your own membership, but the e-mail address you used to post to this public discussion forum has a membership managed by an organization. There are no purchases for Adobe Stock or any other services under your personal account, Default.
For your next steps please contact your organization's Creative Cloud plan administrator for assistance. Personal accounts can be blocked from reaching us by design.
If you did purchase your Adobe Stock membership, on a different account, Default, then see https://adobe.ly/41x198g for information on how to request a password and regain access to the account. ^JW

Ok, thanks for the update, Staffan, this is a public discussion forum, so please avoid sharing any information that you don't want to be publicly accessible including e-mail addresses and serial number.
If you receive a message that the serial number is revoked, see https://adobe.ly/43cdr7s for more information. You can click on the chat icon at the bottom of the page to be connected with a team with whom you can discuss any revoked serial number.
As Kglad mentioned, the activation servers for CS4 were shut down, so if you will be unable to activate the software on a new computer. Only an existing computer, will allow any previous activations to be utilized, Staffan. ^JW

No, I'm sorry, Joey. The files are only available to the account the software is registered to. Please check any e-mail address you have used since 2018, when you previously registered the software. If you identify the account that you used to register the software, then you can complete the steps at https://adobe.ly/3XjjFi2 to request the software license be moved to the account you are currently using. This would also give you access to the installation files as described in https://adobe.ly/4bcwIaJ under the current account.
You can also click on https://adobe.ly/4bc31GJ to chat with a member of our support team who can help you locate the account that you used to register the software, Joey. Please be prepared with any other information you may have, such as phone numbers or commonly used e-mail addresses, and be prepared to confirm the registered information if you want to regain access to the account.
If the account can not be found and access is regained, Joey, then you will need to look for a new solution to edit your photos and videos in 2025. ^JW

If you sign in under the account you used to post to this public discussion forum, Joey, then you won't have access to the software as that is not the account the software is registered under. Your original post stated that when you entered the serial number, it was already use and registered to another account.
You will need to log in under that account to gain access to the installation files and then later complete the activation process. Please see my previous post for information on how to request a password reset.^JW

Thanks for the update, Thorigol. The CC Cleaner Tool is a universal application, so it should run just fine on the computer. You can find the location of the licensing and activation files listed at https://adobe.ly/4gV8EdJ if you want to manually remove them.
You may want to consider formatting the computer and reinstalling the latest operating system that it will support; this will help position you for the best success with using Lightroom 6 on a 2012 Mac in 2025.
The CC Cleaner Tool doesn't ordinarily crash on people's computers, so if you encounter any other problems, Thorigol, then I would recommend you proceed with formatting the computer and reinstalling the operating system. ^JW

Thorigol, you could manually look for and remove the necessary licensing files to confirm if any Adobe software had ever been installed or download and run the CC Cleaner Tool to remove the current installations and any damaged licensing files that could be preventing you from using Lightroom 6. Over the years, we have improved the CC Cleaner Tool to help prevent the need to look for and delete licensing or application files.
It is your choice; you will still face problems connecting to our servers on a computer running an out-of-date operating system. Please see my previous posts for information on the QR code process you will need to utilize to complete the sign-in process once the serial number error has been resolved. ^JW

Thorigiol, the request to validate the serial number is not related to activations. If you have inherited this computer, then previous Adobe software installations could affect the recognition of the serial number. Please download and run the CC Cleaner Tool from https://adobe.ly/4kbp1Wf and use it to remove all Adobe software and information from the computer. This will leave you in a better state to successfully install and utilize Lightroom 6, Thorigiol. ^JW
