I have Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium, and I can see that my software is out of date. What do I need to do to upgrade? Does it cost to do this?

This might seem like a silly question, but are there free software updates available? If so, how do I access them?

Hi michaelt35572189
You can only upgrade from CS5 or CS5.5 to CS6 design Premium. Please Refer : http://www.adobe.com/mena_en/products/creativesuite/design-web-premium/buying-guide-upgrad es.html
In your case, you need to purchase the complete suite.

  • I have Adobe Creative Suite 5 "Design Premium" for Mac.  Was Adobe Acrobat included?

    Hi,
    I have Adobe Creative Suite 5 "Design Premium" for Mac.  It was purchased and downloaded ~Nov 2010.  However, it appears that I never downloaded Adobe Acrobat, which looks like it's on a separate disk.  Long story ... but am only starting to use this software now after 2 years!  Anyhow, I'm wondering if I can safely download this disk at this point?  Also, I see that there is a number of updates which I should be installing, so wondering if I should hold off on those until after Acobat is downloaded?  I did get a serial number from the install of the the other Adobe software included in Creative Suite 5.
    Many Thanks,
    Janice

    You can download the trial version of the software thru the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.
    Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site or else the download will not work properly.

  • I have Adobe Creative Suite 5 Design Premium (Teacher and Student Edition.  I've purchased the upgrade to Adobe Photoshop CS6 - Trying to install, but it says my serial number is invalid?

    I have Adobe Creative Suite 5 Design Premium (Teacher and Student Edition).  I've purchased the upgrade to Adobe Photoshop CS6 - Trying to install, and it says the Adobe CS6 is valid - but only provides 'photoshop' options for entering my old serial number, rather than the adobe creative suite. How do I move past this so I can download it on my computer.  I don't want to upgrade to Adobe Creative Suite 6 - as I do not need all the programs, just photoshop.  From looking online, I read forums that said this was possible.  Please advise

    I don't want to upgrade to Adobe Creative Suite 6 - as I do not need all the programs, just photoshop.
    Unfortunately that option is not possible.
    You cannot upgrade a Creative Suite to a standalone product.
    Creative Suites can only be upgrades to other Creative Suites.
    You'll need to return Photoshop CS6 upgrade since you cannot use it.
    Return, cancel, or exchange an Adobe order
    Some options:
    Buy a Creative Suite upgrade, or
    Buy a full new copy of Photoshop CS6, or

  • I have Adobe Creative Suite CS 3 Premium and would like to upgrade to CS 6. Is it free? How do I download it?

    I have Adobe Creative Suite CS 3 Premium and would like to upgrade to CS 6. Is it free? How do I download it?

    Unfortunately, there is no upgrade from CS3 to CS6. I couldn't even purchase CS6 Design Standard through Adobe. They're only promoting the CC version now. I did manage to speak with a rep through the Chat option at one point who offered to sell me the CS6 Design and Web Premium (I mentioned the CC version doesn't make sense financially for me) but the chat failed before I could go any further. The site is very unstable when searching Products. I ended up purchasing the CS6 Design Standard CD through eBay.

  • I have A question about Adobe creative Suite 3 Design Premium, and what it comes with..

    My boyfriend works for a office furniture company building and tearing down office furniture. Today one of the people who worked at the company he was tearing down told him he could take any of the programs there as they had no use for them. So he took the Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium as well as mac OSX Leopard, thinking I would like to use them. But I have a PC.
    My question is what comes with the Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium? Since I can not use it, I thought I could sell it, but do not want to do so if I do not have everything it comes with or needs. What I have is three disc's, in the case. There is the application, the content, and the video workshop. There is no booklet or anything with it. If anyone could answer my question, I would really appreciate it. I dont want to sell it to someone and get in any trouble for it not having what its supposed to.
    Thank you for your time and help.

    Firstly, the CS3 Design Prem comes with Photoshop Extended CS3, Illustrator CS3, InDesign CS3, Dreamweaver CS3, Acrobat Pro 8 as well as Bridge and and Vesion Cue.
    Secondly, has the packaging been opened? If so, it could still be installed on a PC or rather Macintosh somewhere. If so, this makes it a trickier proposition with regards to installing it yourself or selling it on.
    Don't quote me on this, but if the software is fresh and unopened or has been deactivated, you could upgrade to Design Prem CS4 Mac and then crossgrade to Design Prem Windows. Don't know if it's possible to crossgrade and upgrade in one fell swoop from Mac to Win. I suspect not - but will be happy to be proven wrong.
    Hope this helps.

  • Working with Windows. Have Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium...wouldn't let me use Photoshop. Said I should uninstall and reinstall. Tried but I will not reinstall all of the programs. Help!

    I can't get my purchased product to reinstall.

    On what OS are you running the software? CS3 on Window 7 / 8 will not work or on OS X 10.9 or 10.8. Try to reinstall on XP or Os X 10.6 and you will have no issues....

    Aussimick you will want to enter in the qualifying serial number from the full version of Adobe software you purchased.  You can find the serial numbers located under your account by following the steps listed in Find your serial number quickly - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html.

    when you were install your cs3 you should have been prompted for you serial number.  were you?
    if not, you probably didn't properly install cs3.  copying/migrating/moving etc is problematic.
    if yes, did you see any error messages during installation?
    if yes, attach a screenshot of the error message.
    if not, check you install logs, Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6, CC

    I had to restore my iMac from Time Machine. After the restoration all programs are functioning except my Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Premium. When I start any program in the suite the error message, "Licensing for this product has stopped working." I restarted the computer and tried again to run Photoshop and the same error message appeared. The message was followed by a message that stated that I needed to contact Adobe technical support and mention Error: 150.30. I need Adobe technical support to provide me a solution for my problem so I can continue using my Adobe products installed on my computer.

    Unfortunately when Adobe products are restored from backup, especial CS4 and especially Mac, it breaks licensing.
    There is a python script included in the license recovery kit that should work if you are familiar with Terminal.
    If not, you must reinstall your CS4 suite.  You don't need to delete your preferences, so it should be the same as before.

  • I purchased my Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium in 08 and have upgraded to Mac.

    I purchased my Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium in 08 and have upgraded to Mac. It appears I am not able to use my old software as I have the Microsoft addition. What should I do now as I desperately need the program in my current situation?

    Either run Windows on your Mac (Bootcamp, Parallels etc) and run CS3 in Windows on your Mac
    or buy a new full version of CS6 for Mac

  • I have bought adobe creative suite 3 design premium for 6 year ago. Is it possible to update it. I am working on mini Mac 10.9.5.

    I have bought adobe creative suite 3 design premium for 6 year ago. Is it possible to update it? I am working on mini Mac 10.9.5.

    Thanks for answer and question
    My adobe suite 3 is on CD. I didn’t installed it in my computer that time.  I wait too long to bay a new computer.  And now 6 year after it doesn’t fit to the Mac OSX 10.9.5 I bought in 2013. My problem is that the CD with programs cost much money in 2007. I read on Adobe webpage that there is a special offer for CS user (40% discount). How can i get it?
    Mybe the best for me is to sell my suite 3 CD. The development goes too fast for me. It is too expensive to bay pr month full version creative cloud. My be the only solution is photoshop with lightroom.

  • Have Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design & Web Premium but...

    Hi Guys
    I wanted to sign for Complete individual Creative Cloud but I am not sure if it's in my case $19.99 or $29.99
    for information, I got CS6 from Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Premium, I bought in 2009
    Please let me know
    Thanks in advance, Thierry D

    The pricing is explained on the Plans page at https://creative.adobe.com/plans
    If you own a registered CS6 product you can get the $19.99 per month month. If you own the CS6 product through an updgrade to an earlier product that is fine.

  • Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Premium trial version says my serial number is invalid?

    I purchased Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Premium from my my community college's bookstore in 2010. I successfully have used it all this time, but I recently bought a new laptop. This new laptop does not have a disk drive, but I was able to download the trial version of it online. It downloaded great, and I have been using the trial version, but the trial is up in one week. I deactivated my serial number on my old laptop, and then tried to enter it onto my new laptop, but the error message keeps saying "Incorrect Serial Number": "The serial number you entered is not valid." However, the serial number is definitely valid, and I spoke with Adobe and they just checked and were able to see that I do have an activation available for this serial number. Why won't it accept it?
    Side Notes:
    The licensing is Student Licensing
    I downloaded the correct creative suite (Creative Suite 4 Design Premium)
    I typed in the serial number correctly and checked multiple times
    I cannot afford to purchase an updated version nor Adobe Creative Cloud at this time
    Someone please help!! I am very frustrated and the person on Adobe Chat said they do not offer any technical assistance for older products.... Any help is MUCH appreciated!!

    Same thing happened to me, except I lost disk 2 and was told to go to the forums.. Seems Adobe isn't too great on their customer service or fixing issues.  The problem I was told, was that we have "Student" serials and the one from the download isnt a student version.

    I had all my software, including my ‘Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Premium’ removed from my MacPro (OSX 10.10.2) by a Computer technician after I had inadvertently installed some malware.
    Now I can’t reinstall my CS4 because the installer software wants me to identify the product from which I am upgrading, but mine isn’t on the list. The old product from which I am upgrading is called ‘Adobe Design Collection’. Furthermore, it has 4 serial numbers (one each for Photoshop, InDesign, Acrobat and Illustrator), not just one, as the installer requires.
    I know this can be done, as I have had it working for a long time. Am I doing something wrong now?

    Contact support be web chat and have them generate a working temporary serial/ challenge code for the install.

  • Serial Key not working for Adobe Creative Suite 5 Design Premium

    I have the serial key for my Adobe Creative Suite 5 Design Premium that I bought in 2011 on my account page. However, when I put the serial number in the installer, it says "This serial number is not valid for this product."
    I just want access to the product I bought. Can anybody help me?

    Are you definitely installing Design Premium CS5, not a similar sounding Creative Suite? And not CS5.5?
