Serial Number Woes

Filed under: Blogging — holly.schwendiman @ 3:04 pm

I’m bumming. I’m transferring over what things I can to my new Mac. I was tickled pink to see the Macromedia software stuido I have is good for both windows and Mac. The bad news is that to activate it I have to provide the previous version’s serial number. I can’t find that old software CD with serial numbers written on sticky notes in the sleeve to save my life. Customer service says they can’t do anything for me because they can’t find my previous registration information. I’m sure a buy out of Macromedia by Adobe didn’t help with that. So I have this great software that I can install but can’t use right now. All I can do is keep searching. I hate serial numbers today.

**UPDATE**
So just moments after I posted this my amazing hubby starting instant messaging me some possible serial numbers he had and one was the right one! My hero.

In other good news I learned today that the only files that don’t transfer to my Mac in a usable format are my old Microsoft Publisher files. I can live with that!

  1. Computer switching of any sort makes my head hurt. I wish I could just keep one technical setup for a decade. I’d be happy then. But your Mac makes me a little green with gizmo-envy.

    My hubby doesn’t do computers. But he’s a mean oil changer;)))

    Amen to switching headaches. Our hubbies balance each other out nicely…:)

  2. Would be funny if your hubby just made up some numbers and one them just happen to work.

    Hee hee, that would be funny!
