Change your Adobe CS3 serial number.
Managing serial numbers is a headache in almost every creative studio. If you have more than 3 designers on a network, someone has to take responsibility for keeping track of which serial numbers belong on which computers.
Creativetechs recommends that creative teams stop buying single-user copies of CS3. For the same cost, your studio can get a site license with a single serial number for your entire team. Here’s our tip from last year:
Transactional Licensing: Avoid serial number headaches with CS3!
But back to today’s tip: What if you are using a single-user copy of CS3, and you need to change which serial number is installed on a particular computer? It turns out Adobe makes changing the serial number easy as can be. No need to uninstall and reinstall software if you know where this “Erase my serial number” checkbox is located.

Creativetechs is Now Members-Only.
At Creativetechs, we pride ourselves on providing great Mac support for Seattle-area creative teams. But with our increased success over the last year, our schedule has become too tight to respond to long-term clients as quickly as we’d like.
To address that, the Mac support side of Creativetechs is becoming a members-only support service. We no longer provide tech support for non-member clients. Our time is now dedicated exclusively for taking care of member clients with an ongoing support relationship.
This is a big step for us. If you are a Seattle creative pro who has relied on Creativetechs for sporadic Mac support over the years, we can be your support team. But we are no longer available for one-time troubleshooting projects.
Note: The training side of Creativetechs remains open to EVERYONE.
