Adobe CS4 “Licensing for this product has expired”
January 26th, 2020
Today the following pop-up appears when trying to open the applications from the Abode CS4 family “Licensing for this product has expired”, And obviously running it on one of the best platforms around, Mac OS X…. =]
If anyone is aware of this or knows a fix please post the solution!
Cheers, =]
make your time 2 days earlier
i have the same problem , just happened, anyone ? i run it on windows vista
I have the same problem, a patch must be available? For the Windows edition of CS4 Master Suite…
I face this problem too
download a program called RunDateAs and set it back before 20th of January 2009.
it works, but its very troublesome tho.
I have the same problem, is it only with master collection ?
Oh go away all, this is for us Mac fags, Would us RunDateAs, But that’s obviously for Windows! Anyone know of a solution yet? lol
there is a fix for windows that involves:
replacing “amtlib.dll” in every app installed which works really well. I know this question is for the mac but might give you somewhere to begin…
Hope it helps.
Cheers
get this and copy over the original file
there are 32 and 64 bit versions (64 bit just for Photoshop CS4 64 bit program)
http://~ Dead file host ~/files/186557806/AMTLib_32and64.zip.html
does that work for mac and PC? – good call on the 64bit version for pjotoshop – thats what i was missing !
After patching some 20 folder with the AMTlib file (on windows), everything started to work! From Dreavweaver, to Photoshop (32 and 64 bit) and everything else.
Thanks !
Also if anyone in this thread uses Mac, perhaps this works: http://www.demonoid.com/files/details/1762734/10121364/
Mine happened last night. or this morning at 12:31…
Can’t we just uninstall the program and reinstall it?

The best thing that you can do now is to search for another crack/patch/keygen. It will be the best solution.
Here is the AMTLIB uploaded to Premium account
http://~ Dead file host ~/files/186674885/AdobeCS4_License_Fix.rar
Fix Installation:
- Choose the 30 Day Trial and install that
- Open the program and it should ask you for a serial. Don't type one in yet! Close the program.
- Find amtlib.dll somewhere in your installation folder.
- Rename amtlib.dll to 1amtlib.dll (you're creating a backup).
- Copy and paste the fixed amtlib.dll from this file, to the same place you did the renaming.
- Now Open The Program, IT wont Ask For Any Serial
please transfer this amtlib_32and64.zip to collector account so we can download.. thanks

What if you installed the Master Collection? Do you do that for each and every program? Cas I just searched and there’s one in each directory for each program.

I am in need of a solution for the MAC version… can someone help?
Us Mac Users are suffering with out the Demonoid account access, would be nice if some kind user could upload it to RS!
I have installed master collection and I have no problem with that, but my separatly installed Indesign CS4 ME poped up with same problem and Illustrator CS4 ME says Tryout expired. and the fix above didn’t worked for me. I think I need to get a proper serial number for those separatly installed. any solution?
Thanks guys. This was a huge life saver for a project due soon.
Gah Still not working! *cries*
worked like a charm on pc. just used the search function to look for the files with the same name. Opened the maps and pasted the file in.
Thnx
This should help a bit I think:

Right, I re-installed it and used this method posted in this thread!
1) Press (Command + Shift + G) in finder and type: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PCD/cache/ 2) Next find the file called: "cache.db" select it, then press (Command + i) and change the "Sharing and Permissions" from system to everyone, and type your password. 3) Next, either delete this file or move it to a new folder and rename it. (If renaming, just add apostrophes before and after the name so you can find it easily if you ever need it again... and you won't) 4) Now open any CS4 Application, enter any CS4 serial and all is good to go.

Anything done for me. Any other solution?
