CS5 to CS6 upgrade and creative cloud pricing

I dont understand adobe's logic with pricing of upgrades compared to the cloud.
I bought the cs5 master collection upgrade from a single suit at least in part because I assumed each subsequent upgrade would be about $800. I skipped cs5.5 because it
a) it was priced as a whole version number upgrade
b) my core apps werent updated.
Now I come to upgrade to CS6 and find that I have to pay again for a single suit upgrade. There is no upgrade path from CS5 master to CS6 master. That is a rip off to start.
I also find that even paying the full price on yearly contract its far cheaper to go with the cloud over the expected lifetime of the product: over 2 years its $1200. The upgrade path I have available is around $1500.
How does that make the upgrade viable?
And finally having to post this here because there is no formal route to contact adobe sales via email. If anyone can provide one i'd be obliged.

I have had Adobe software for a long long time, and I decided to drop my perpetual licenses for the Creative Cloud. I upgrade every version anyway (more or less) so it's not a big deal for me price wise.
I also use more than just the Production suite software (Acrobat and Dreamweaver) so Creative Cloud sort of consolidates all of that.
My current experience is...the Creative Cloud is a work in progress. There are still features that aren't there yet, like the Creative Cloud desktop app, and some other functionality that's all coming sometime later this summer or this year. The online storage is nice. The website hosting is nice too (although I haven't quite got it working yet).
I do have access to other programs I didn't have before like InDesign and Fireworks, so I've found those interesting to toy around with. Over the years I'd occasionally get an InDesign layout from someone and be unable to do anything with it, so that does solve a rare problem for me as well.
I'd say if you qualify for the discount pricing (which means you're either a student/teacher/edu subscriber, or own an existing CS3, CS4 or CS5 suite) then the $29/month is awesome. Just do it. If you're looking at the $49/month price, maybe not so much.
If you are only an infrequent creative type and only do video/image/print projects occasionally, go with the month-to-month plan and you don't have to worry about getting stuck on the long term, and you only pay for the software whenever you need it.

Premiere CS5 to CS6 upgrade~ Crashed multicam- HELP!!

I have used PPro CS5 for a while with no problems. Recently bought Production Premium CS6.
It has the upgrade to Premiere CS6.
I did not uninstall CS5.
I kept CS5 because I have a project to finish in CS5. I tried to open the old project in CS6, but there are some filters, etc missing.
I need to finish the old project in CS5 and then I can uninstall it.
Now Multicam won't work in CS5 OR CS6 and I'm stuck not being able to finish my project!!
Can I not have them both installed at once, because the multicam interface is different in CS5 and CS6? Are they conflicting??
Is there a way to uninstall CS6 until I finish my CS5 project?
Thank you!!

Ask for specifics in the PPro forum. In so many words: What do I know about multicam? I suspect installing CS6 has simply updated the CoDecs and one of your footages now behaves differently. If so, uninstalling CS6 and possibly running a repair /re-) install of CS5 should fix that.

Is a CS6 upgrade still available?

If I want to upgrade to CS6 from CS5.5 must I subscribe to Creative Cloud, or can I still download the CS6 upgrade?

Price is through the adobe website: https://www.adobe.com/products/catalog/cs6._sl_id-contentfilter_sl_catalog_sl_software_sl_ creativesuite6.html?start=10
To be specific, I am upgrading CS design standard.

Do I install both CS5 and CS6 upgrade or just CS6?

PC fried by lightning. My CS5 was updated with CS6 upgrade. Must I install both or can I only install CS6?
Thanks
Callie

You should only need to install CS6. As part of the activation process after your CS6 serial number is accepted you will be asked to identify the qualifying version (CS5) and enter its serial number

Photosop CS5 to CS6 upgrade

I have Elearning Suite 2 with Photoshop CS5 included in it. I purchased an upgrade from Photoahop CS5 to CS6 but when I try to use it, it tells me that I don't have a valid Photoshop CS5 to upgrade.

CS5.5/CS6 upgrade

After I install CS6 can I transfer CS5.5 to my daughter?

Not really. CS6 is an upgrade to your CS5.5 and upgrades are supposed to used under the same conditions as the original qualifying product. Of course you can install CS6 on a second machine at any time as long as you don't use them at the same time. And Adobe may not even technically prevent you from re-using your CS5.5 on two additional machines, but it's definitely not how things are meant to be, even if they may tolerate this, if it is kept within the family. Just don't be foolish and give your CS5.5 away, if your daughter lives elsewhere - for the aforemntioned reasons, you are gonna need the serial number to activate your CS6.

DW CS5 to CS6 Upgrade Frustration

Geez- I must not have been paying attention. I have DW CS5 (not 5.5) and want to upgrade to CS6. I was hoping I could find a box in the online store, put it in my cart, pay for it and run to my front door in a couple of days to pick it up off of my porch.
All I can find is downloadable upgrade to the CC version. I want to work right within my comfy PC. Can't I just upgrade from one desktop version to the next desktop version?
Thanks, - Dave

Can't I just upgrade from one desktop version to the next desktop version?
Not any more. Adobe changed the landscape radically when they went subscription only with the Cloud (version CC).
Note that the only Cloud part about the CC version is the licensing. When you subscribe, you still download the software to your PC and run it locally just as you've always done. Any files you create, you can store locally (and online if you wish but that's optional).
The only difference to perpetual licenses is that instead of a big payment upfront, you pay a monthly fee every month as long as you want to use the software. When you stop paying, the software stops working.
In addition, Adobe has stopped shipping boxes to doorsteps. It's download only now.
For those who don't want to subscribe, Adobe still sells CS6.

CS5 to CS6 upgrade on DVD

I have CS5 design standard, can I still get traditional dvd upgrade to CS6 design standard?

Yes, from the Adobe online store. But as a download only. No DVDs available. You can burn your own once you've downloaded the CS6 installer.

Is CS6 Upgrade supposed to install over CS5?

The other night I installed an upgrade of CS6 on my mac. Being an upgrade, I assumed it would install over my version of CS5, but it did not. So now I have CS5 and CS6 upgrade on my mac. Do I simply uninstall the old CS5? Or do I reinstall the CS6 again hoping it will install over the CS5? Also, I installed Lightroom 4 on my mac - it did install over Lightroom 3.

Thank you so much for your quick response. I'll not drag to the trash!

When can download CS6 upgrade version

When can download CS6 upgrade version

You can download it from http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/cs6-product-downloads.html then use your serial numbers (both CS5 and CS6 upgrade) to activate it.

CS6 Upgrade Policy

I have a registered copy of PS CS3 and plan to take advantage of the upgrade offer and buy the CS6 upgrade before 31st Dec 2012. However, I also plan to buy a new PC in the next month or two and would prefer to wait until I have that fully operational before installing CS6. This could well be early 2013. The question is will the CS6 upgrade still be valid? What happend on the 1 st Jan 2013? Are all CS3/4 Upgrades taken of the shelves or will Adobe prevent activation from that date?
Dave

I believe this may be driven by the serial number.
CS6 upgrades are purchased direct from Adobe.
I suspect that CS6 upgrade serial numbers which recognise CS3 as a qualifying product probably won't be issued with upgrade purchases from 1 Jan 2013 onwards.
Bottom-line: if you intend to upgrade to CS6 from CS3, you must purchase in 2012. Don't leave it until 2013 and then be disappointed. When you actually install and activate is up to you but you will then know that the CS3 serial will be accepted by the CS6 installer. If any issues arise, the first thing Adobe Customer Support will check is date of purchase.
Point is: comply with Adobe's special offer rules for eligibility and you cannot go wrong

Is it still possible to upgrade from CS4 to CS6 after the upgrade offer ended in 2012?

Is it still possible to upgrade from CS4 to CS6 after the upgrade offer ended in 2012? I have not found the option to do so.

My family owns and operates a non-franchise entertainment facility (miniature golf, laser tag, arcade, pizza, parties...). I have a design background, so among the many things I do here I'm also able to create marketing materials and an online presence in-house which would be too expensive for us to outsource. Over a five year period, that's given us a software cost of right at $1 per day since our CS3 license ran around $1800. Our customers are the public, and the package we try to push for walk-in traffic costs $50 for four people. In exchange, they get unlimited mini golf, a game of laser tag, and a large pizza. Not a bad deal. If we were to earn $1800 from that group of four every five years, assuming they spent $50 each visit, that'd bring them here close to two times every three months. For our type of business in a city of 118,000 tight-fisted Germans, that's about right.
What, are you trying make me feel GUILTY about being upset that Adobe's new strategy negatively affects my livelihood?
As far as Adobe's policy change announcement goes, I have no idea how it was announced. I DO know I was not sent an email notification, though they have my email address and record that I'm a CS3 owner. Presumably it was announced somewhere on Adobe's website, and further disseminated through various digital and print trade publications. I respect Adobe's right to not reverse its decision. If our business decided to put a sign on the front doors (since we don't have contact info for all of our past customers) saying we'd closed that night at 5 PM instead of 11 PM as usual, we aren't obligated to let in latecomers. But I'd also recognize their right to be mad at us for wasting their travel time. What I WOULDN'T do is tell them it's THEIR fault for not being proactive and calling ahead to confirm the expectation that our hours are still the same as they've been for the last decade. NOR would I be surprised if we didn't get their $50 that month. These Germans tend to hold grudges.
