Hi,
I bought an Adobe Acrobat licence back in 2017. I have recently changed over laptops and found that im unable to transfer the licence. More so it has stated that it is now deactivated. I had bought this outright and therefore should have it indefinitely.
Any advice on how I can recover this from Bonaza as every effort to seek assistance has been unsuccessful. It appears they have wiped there hands of this and more so Adobe have advised that they are not a licenced re-seller and therefore cannot assist

Adobe software usually has a procedure where there software can be “deactivated” (or uninstalled) on one computer and then installed( “reactivated”) on a different computer. Most times, this can be done from within the application itself. Look for such an option under one of the menu options when running the software. The seller of the software and/or Bonanza (which is just the marketplace the seller uses) cannot do anything about switching the software to a different computer.
It is Adobe that regulates the activation of their software. This policy ensures that people are not purchasing one copy of software and installing it on multiple machines. That is why they have the deactivation/reactivation procedure.

You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?

- "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
- When you would like the original poster to provide more details
- When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
