Finaly updated my OS from Win 8.1 Pro 64bit on my Desktop yesterday. It is a beautiful OS. After last years update from Win XP SP3 I was amazed that the programs where still in place & on the task bar. Bravo Microsoft.I know I do not spend to much time at AutoDesk, maybe 4 years ago to set up the original acount for AutoCAD 2013 & a little while back to set up AutoCAD360 on my Samsung tablet. Also about 3 weeks ago I decided to try & backup my files to AutoCAD 360 but decided that Dropbox had already done that after 360 reported the 3rd file upload was corupted?
It showed up fine from the Dropbox account. True.DWG being the usual record on opening AutoCAD 2013. I am not sure but I would guess that I purchased 2013 on E-bay as I had done for AutoCAD 14 etc.
With somebody elses credit card & (mine from Bermuda was not excepted?) AutoCAD-2002(?) before I made the big jump to 2013. I never questioned the serial number as the system ran fine & established my account at AutoDesk.After the final re-boot of Win 10 Update I clicked the AutoCAD 2013 icon in the task bar & low & behold the system ran license check to declare that the serial number was invalid!
Dec 30, 2011 Searched autocad 2002 pre-release expiration crack crack keygen serial?To download the “autocad 2002 pre-release expiration crack crack keygen.
I proceeded directly to my AutoDesk account to check the serial numbers & was informed that my system manager had the serrial numbers which was in fact true as it was a standalone installation with a perpetual license in my companies name on my companies desktop linked directly to my hotmail account.I had used Snagit to capture the AutoCAD-2013 Product info as a.jpg when I first installed & last week before the update. The serial numbers are the same. Now I am in a real pickle. Wrote:Finaly updated my OS from Win 8.1 Pro 64bit on my Desktop yesterday.

Now I am in a real pickle. Roll back to previous version as stated. The serial # shown in one of your screenshots doesn't appear to be valid anyways, but in the future refrain from posting serial numbers online. I can't say for certain, but I would avoid buying Autodesk software off eBay. Locate a local VAR (Value Added Reseller) in your area and obtain the software thru them. At least then you'll know you are buying legitimate software.
As for your current situation - this may take a real Autodesk person to get involved here if in fact you do have bogus serial numbers. Wrote:1. c annot afford to pay for the new AutoCAD License with valid serial numbers.2.
I am weary of the E-bay re-sellers even though their efforts made it completely affordable, their invalid serial numbers may in fact have been derived from.3. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.1. I will make a significant wager that you never paid for a valid serial number.2. Software never asked you to Activate license - I will make significant wager that you are running pirated/cracked license.3. Call your VAR ASAP before the SBA comes knocking.oh, and spend a little time researching eBay and AutoCAD and AutoCAD and Windows 10.Due diligence will keep the company (and you) out of the hot water. Yeah Ampster, just checked out Ebay for AutoCAD-13 & the price was so low I could not believe it but I guess that is why I fell for it the last three times.
ACAD-14, ACAD-2002 & ACAD-2013. 13 was too close to the initial release date not to be a fraud @ $450 usd. It worked & registered at AutoDesk? Black Hats ain't no slouches. Time was when older version licenses where sold almost imediatley at half price & a lot less. $25 usd is off the hook. Who @ AutoDesk should I speak to about checking the serial numbers on an Ebay purchase? They have plenty of AutoCAD-13 vendors in Mexico @ the same really low price/lower?
Maybe I should shoot for AutoCAD-2014? Now I am so shaken up I am afraid to hit download. My guess is I'll wait till I've calmed down a bit. If it is not illegal to by second hand licenses? I was really hoping I was in the right place to do so. I am not going to rollback Win 10, it is too nice.
You may want to consider posting over in the Installation and Licensing forum so that you may draw the attention of an actual Autodesk employee. It's going to take a real A'desker to look into this - considering it sounds like you do not have a Autodesk-recognized VAR (Value Added Reseller I believe). Not to say it isn't valid, but the first 3 numbers of your serial number IRC are '666' - to me that smells of an invalid or illegal serial number. I understand your desire to stick with Win10, I updated two systems a couple weekends ago and on the laptop with hardware that's more suited for Win10, it works/looks nice and appears to be very usable. However that's my 'play' laptop and I don't depend on it for much of anything. My desktop with older hardware, didn't fare so well. It was taking anywhere between 3 to 5 mins to fully boot up - so this past weekend I rolled it back to Win7.
My advice to you, once you get passed confirming you have legit software is this, if you need your CAD software to work - be fully prepared at some point to roll back the O.S. Don't hold out hoping Autodesk will find a way to make any version prior to the last few releases work and be supported by them.
Only problem with this is you apparently have 30 days to roll back - which even though others here have provided answers as to why they are doing that - it doesn't make any sense to me to limit it to 30 days. Why not go a full year or until the end of life of which ever O.S. You/we upgraded from.
