Production Premium CS4 Student Edition-Quick Question

I just purchased the student edition of Production Premium CS4. I would like to install the software as soon as I recieve it, however, I do plan on buying a new computer within the next month.
Am I able to install the software on the computer I have now, and then once I have purchased the new computer, deactivate and uninstall CS4 from the old computer and reinstall and activate on the new computer?
I believe the Licence states that the software may only be installed on one computer. Does that mean one computer at a time or one computer ever?
Thank you!

A good and frequent question - and I think you should be OK...  Check out the entries in this FAQ, "Do the Student Editions have restricted functionality?" and "How many computers can I use a Student Edition on?"  (under "How Can I Use My Software?")   http://bit.ly/byG0p6

  • Installing Web Premium CS4 Student Edition on Laptop After Windows 7 Upgrade Question

    I hope that this hasn't been asked before but my question is the following: I want to upgrade my laptop computer from Windows XP to Windows 7.  But I hear that all programs get uninstalled after installing Windows 7 on a Windows XP machine.  I would have to reinstall all programs again to use Web Premium CS4.  But my student edition says that I can only install the program on two computers.  Does this mean that I can install the program only two times or can I still install on the same laptop after changing the OS (I installed CS4 on two computers, my laptop and desktop)?  I would very much like to continue using Web Premium CS4 on my laptop but am worried that I won't be able to install it since I installed CS4 on my laptop and desktop (two installs already).  Let me know if I can install on the same laptop after upgrading to Windows 7.  Thanks in advance for the help.

    The issue is not installation...it's activation. Deactivate the software first. (Help > Deactivate from any application).
    Back up all of your data, preferences, etc because as you note, this will be a clean install of Windows. Be aware that this is only recommeneded method for upgrading a Windows installation. NEVER do an in place Windows (or, IMO, Mac OSX) upgrade.

  • Quick "Photoshop CS4 Student Edition" Question

    How many times am I able to download the CS4 Student Edition? If I can recall, I was able to download my old CS3 version twice, but I am having difficulty locating where to find this particular information. Thanks for the response. Much appreciated!
    Jenna

    As far as I know, the Student Editions range is no different from any other Adobe downloadable product. In their Online Order FAQ, they write:
    "How long will my download be available?
    You may return to your Online Store account to resume a download, or re-download your products for 3 years after the day of purchase. If for some reason you are unable to access your account or are unable to find your previously purchased downloads, please contact customer service. Adobe reserves the right to change this policy at any time with or without notice."
    (Taken from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/167/tn_16719.html#Completed_download )
    That seems to indicate that you're not limited to a number of downloads, but a time in which to download. If you click on the 'Your Account' link at the top of the Adobe site, and then on the 'View Order History' link, you should have a 'Your Downloads' tab that will make all your purchases available to download.
    You may find that this varies slightly with volume licensing however. I'm assuming you mean a Student Editions individual purchase, but if you're buying through your university for example, you should check with them. If you're unsure of what kinds of student editions are available, check out this article explaining the different Adobe Photoshop Student editions, http://www.easyelements.com/adobe-photoshop-student.html .

  • CS4 Student Edition Questions

    Hi, I'm currently a student at Seattle Art Institute and need to get CS4. My question is, if I get CS4 Student Edition is it any different than the regular CS4? Does it not include some things that the other has? Also, when I graduate will I have to upgrade to a regular CS4 in order to do my own personal work or can I just use the Student Edition. And lastly, will I be able to use the Student Edition for internships? Thanks for any help,
    -Eric

    I'm aware this post is rather old, but I was curious as to where you got this information? The "US" website does not say that, and I purchased the student version and talked to three different Adobe associates over the phone (including the supervisor) all of which said that here in the US you absolutely can use the Student edition of CS4 for commercial work.
    EDIT: never mind I saw your link. You're right about it NOT being able to be used for commercial use in the UK.
    I was worried for a second. Here in the USA you can use it for commercial work. Just called and verified the difference on the phone yet again...lol
    UK no USA yes

  • I have purchased Production Premium CS4 Educational Version. Its serial number is not working. Please help...

    I have purchased Production Premium CS4 Educational Version. Its serial number is not working. Please help...

    If you recently purchased this then it is not likely to be a valid sale/purchase.  Adobe does not sell older versions of their products and no one but Adobe provides student/teacher licensing.  If you purchased this some time years ago and it is only recently that you find you are not able to reactivate it with the original serial number you can try contacting Adobe Support thru chat and see if they will be willing to work with you to resolve this.
    For the link below click the Still Need Help? option in the blue area at the bottom and choose the chat option...

  • I have reinstalled cs4 student edition afther a deactivation by adobe but can not veiw ORF or DNG files in bridge i am runing windows 7

    I have reinstalled cs4 student edition afther a deactivation by adobe but can not veiw ORF or DNG files in bridge i am runing windows 7

    Keep in mind that if your camera is newer than the last released version of Camera Raw (5.7) for Photoshop CS4, Adobe does provide a free solution for compatibility, as Curt has mentioned, through the use of the free DNG Converter application.
    The way that works is this:
    1.  You get your raw images from your new camera into a folder on your computer.
    2.  You run the latest DNG Converter application and choose the folder.
    3.  It converts the entire folder full of images to .DNG files.
    4.  You open a DNG file as you would an older raw file, with your old version of Photoshop.
    While the DNG Converter provides you a way to continue to use your older Photoshop software with a new camera, keep in mind that there are significant improvements in the raw converter in the latest version of Photoshop that may allow you to make better images out of your raw files if you do choose to upgrade Photoshop.

    Do you have your serial number(s)?
    You can download and install some version of CS4 from this site:
    http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html
    Be sure to follow the Very Important Instructions to set your Adobe authorization cookie.
    What I’m not sure is if the version downloaded from the above link will activate with student edition serial numbers or not.

  • Photoshop CS4 Student Edition

    I am interested in purchasing Photoshop CS4 student edition. I live in the States and my operating system is a Mac OSX 10.4 Tiger. It's also an intel. Anyway, I know a graphic designer who told me you can't use the program for commercial use and also you can only install the disc one time. What constitutes commercial use? If I buy a new computer, will I be able to install PSCS4 again or transfer the files?
    Thank you!

    You can use the program for whatever you want.
    >If I buy a new computer, will I be able to install PSCS4 again or transfer the files?
    You can deactivate the other copy, then install from the original media on the new box. DO NOT
    transfer the program files, ever; always install from the original media.
    The license is for one user, two computers that are not used simultaneously, e.g. a laptop and a desktop box.
    You can read the EULA on the Adobe web site. Do a search.

  • Currently on Production Premium CS4, trialling Photoshop CS5, Bridge CS4 disappears....

    I am waiting on the phone to Customer Services as I type this....
    I thought it'd be a neat idea to trial CS5 Photoshop (I'm currently on Production Premium CS4).
    I did that, and now Bridge CS4 has disappeared.
    I didnt' want that.  And when I go to my Adobe CS4 folder under programs, it shows as Adobe Bridge CS4 but when I click on it, I get Bridge CS5
    How can I restore this ??
    I want to be able to have both installed and the appropriate Bridge to start up depending on whether I'm in CS4 or CS5 (not too much to ask I'd have thought).
    Many thanks,
    Jez

    Thanks Curt, that's really helped and saved me time.  By disabling the feature you mention and exiting Bridge CS5, when I go to Photoshop CS4 and invoke Bridge, I do indeed get Bridge CS4 starting and not CS5.
    Where I was 'going wrong' was keeping Bridge CS5 running minimized in my system tray which is why even Photoshop CS4 would open it up when invoked from within Photoshop.
    Kind regards,
    Jez

  • Help! Installed CS4 student edition, but only Illustrator appeared!

    Hi! I recently installed the CS4 student edition, but only Illustrator appears in 'Applications.' A lot of the files associated with Photoshop and In Design are on the computer, but not the programs themselves. I wonder if this has to do with the fact I downloaded trial versions of Photoshop and In Design, but deleted them when I was ready to install CS4. They are no longer in trash.
    Thank you.

    If you deleted them by simply dragging them to the trash, then yes, that
    would explain it. Those application need to be uninstalled, not trashed.

  • Production Premium CS4 and Windows 7 64bit

    How is Production Premium CS4 working with Windows 7 64bit?  Is it compatible?
    I checked the System Requirements and it does not mention Windows 7.
    I just wanted to check and see what other user experiences have been like.
    Anything to look out for?
    Thanks!

    CS 4.1 worked the same as under XP. I think I had some minor issue with DL & AE. Don't clearly remember because I've been using CS5.5 since it came out. If you can afford the upgrade, Just Do It! You get Audition and lots of 64-bit power & speed. If you've got a decent nVidia card, downoad the CUDA hack (which basically consists of changing one line of text so the card is recognized) and get even more juice.
    CS5.5 is Da Bomb!
    ....Or you could buy a Mac and go with FCPX. Now there's a real bomb!!!....LOL, ROFL,

  • Adobe Production Premium CS4????????????????

               Does anyone know what the system requirements for adobe production premium cs4 are? I can not find them!

    It was for Adobe Creative Suite 4 - which is what you asked about.
    You should Adobe for further details, but it appears to be a 64 bit application requiring 16GB of RAM!

  • Aufnahme mit USB-Camcorder Production premium CS4?

    Hallo,
    ich habe früher mit Premiere 6.5 und einem Mini-Dvd Camcorder Mit firerwire Anschluss gearbeitet. Jetz habe ich die Production Premium CS4 und einen Camcorder mit KArtenspeicher und USB-KAbel.
    Kann ich immer noch irgendwie live auf dem Compuer sehen, was die Kamera aufnimmt oder direkt über Premiere etc. auf demComputer speichern? (wie früher über die Stop-Motion-Funktion)?
    Welches Programm kommt dafür infrage? gibt es ein USB zu Firewirekabel, mit dem dasdann funktionieren könnte?
    Vielen Dank!

    Kann ich immer noch irgendwie live auf dem Compuer sehen, was die Kamera aufnimmt oder direkt über Premiere etc. auf demComputer speichern?
    Nein. Nicht per USB. Dafür bräuchte man spezielle Treiber und das müßte dann schon die Kamera mitbringen. Im Gegensatzt zu Firewire ist da nix standardisiert (OHCI), weil USB ja eben für belibige andere Geräteklassen auch in Frage kommt. Sicher gibt es irgendwelche Konverterkable/ -boxen, aber für solche Fragen biste auf Foren wie Slashcam besser aufgehoben oder durchsuchst einfach mal die Onlineshops von conrad, Computeruniverse usw.
