It can also be a simple error under your Adobe Id that would need to be fixed by Adobe Customer Care.Įither way, there aren't many actual Adobe employees in the forums, and fewer still that can help with activation/serial issues. Founded by Jimmy Wales and Larry Sanger on January 15, 2001, it is hosted by the Wikimedia Foundation, an American nonprofit organization. That may not be what happened to you, I'm not an Adobe employee and don't have any special access to see your account, but I have seen that explanation several times regarding the error you're seeing. Because the company had already illegally sold large numbers of volume license seats, large groups of innocent third party customers have 'their license' revoked as well.
Unfortunately, when Adobe finds out about these companies, they have to revoke the license the company purchased.
That particular error message has been associated with companies who were illegally reselling Volume License seats to third parties, at typically huge discount prices off of MSRP.
