 I am trying to install Adobe Photoshop and it is asking for the Serial number of my laptop. I am entering it correctly, (having checked and re-checked several times) but it tells me it is invalid. I am not technologically minded so an answer in laymans terms would be greatly appreciated; thank you, regards, Gaynor

Ok it may be but I havent got past the first login field which asks for user name (which was filled in already; The Organization which is also already filled in then the serial number which I have to fill in. I know it is entered correctly, but I can't get past this. Presumably the key comes after this?
