A question about student version upgrade

Hi everyone,
I do know, that student version is only for noncommercial work, and while i'm just a student, i don't wanna take that risk that I might get commercial work to do, and I would't be allowed to do it.
Now what I've got in my mind, is that i would first buy cs4 design premium - student version. Then I would update it to the commercial version (CS4).
The question is, can I update CS4 student to CS4 commercial, or do I have to wait until CS5 is to be released.
And IF I can upgrade from CS4 student to CS4 commercial, does it cost the regural upgrade price? ( ~790€ ).
I know that student version has full upgrade rights, but on the "whats egible for upgrade" it doesn't mention CS4 (for obvious reasons, usually people don't want to pay to upgrade to same program they have), but somehwhere in the european FAQ (here http://www.adobe.com/uk/education/students/studentedition/faq.html ) there was mentioned this
Can I upgrade from a Student Edition?
Yes, a Student Edition can be upgraded to a commercial version.
Now it is not clearly stated, that can we upgrade from later version to more recent one, or can we upgrade recent student ver to recent commercial ver
Location: Europe, Finland, so before you north americans tell me that I can use student version for commercial work, i'd like to say that It doesn't work that way in Europe.
Thank you for your time, I hope someone has a clear ansrew to me.

This is a question for customer support. We are fellow users.

  • Question about Student version and CS6

    Not sure if this is the right place to post this question...
    So I have a question about Student&Teacher versions in CS6 - Will there be Student & Teacher version for CS6 too?
    P.S Sorry if there are some grammar mistakes.
    Hope You understand!
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the reply Bob,
    I was actually referring to this exact page ( CS5.5 Production Premium, Student) http://adobe.ly/H6so7G (non-flash version because links were redirecting) where it doesnt list the offer on the left.
    However, after reading this http://store.adobe.com/store/en_us/popup/offer/cs55_cs6_faq.html and this http://store.adobe.com/store/en_us/popup/offer/cs55_cs6_faqchannel.html I'm assuming it must just be an error.
    It doesnt mention anything about not including student editions and all offer pages I've seen have a link to the education store.

  • I have some questions about student versions of software.

    I am creating a website for my business, and I need Photoshop CS2 and Dreamweaver 8 right now. But I know that CS3 should be out soon, and it will be Universal. If I get the student versions now, can I upgrade them or will I be forced to buy the versions again? What is my best option? Thanks.

    For that you would need to ask the vendors.

  • How much is teacher/student version upgrade from LR4?

    How much is teacher/student version upgrade from LR4?

    The "teacher/student version" is a special offer for a full version purchase. The software is in fact identical to the regular full version being sold. Once you have purchased the license key it is fully functional and allows you to upgrade at the normal upgrade price.
    If you still qualify for the "teacher/student version" you can purchase another full license for LR 5 at the discounted price which is the same as the upgrade price.

  • Questions about Student Edition

    Hi,
    i'm asking cause a lot of threads i found are very old -> outdated.
    1. Are there any upgrades from Student Edition to Normal Commercial Edition?
    2. Can I buy later upgrades e.g. i buy now master collection cs 5.5 and get cs6 but cs7 is out, what will happen? (cause i see there are just fullversions and no upgrades)
    3. On how many Computers i can install it? Or can i install it on various computers and just can use the same program on one computer? for example use photoshop with one and after effects with other one?
    4. I heard that the Student Edition is EXACTLY the same like the normal. Does this mean that i can use it for commercial use? (Already read something about it and that is possible but they talked about older versions and newer and i can't understand the right answer)
    5. My Father has a good Camera and often take photos. So can he use my Photoshop to edit his photos and is allowed to use these works for commercial use or just when i edit it?
    6. When i finish school can i still upgrade my editions if there are any upgrades?
    7. I live in Germany and saw that e.g. on Amazon.com german is not avaible at the moment just english and other european languages. Is it possible to change the language before or after installation?
    Hope you can help me.
    Thank you
    Greetings

    thank for so fast support
    2. so i can buy a normal commercial upgrade with fullversion student edition
    3. after 2 installations it's not possible to reinstall it? cause i renew my computer at least every year.
    5. can you be more detail because i have two questions there or you mean yes to both?
    7. language is no problem
    Tom
    p.s.
    8. when i install a product and activate it there is a function to deactivate it. does this mean it's possible to install it unlimited again?
    9. when i buy any upgrade does it extend/refresh the activation limit?

  • This is a question about iTunes version 10.5

    Hello,
    I am running iTunes on several Mac computers (ppc and intel) with version 10.4, as well as my iPhone/iPad.  I am being frequently prompted on the computers to upgrade from version 10.4 to 10.5.
    However, I do NOT want to use iCloud to store or sync any music.  Each of my machines has their own iTunes library, and I am not interested in sharing.  So, my question is:  If I upgrade from 10.4 to 10.5, will I be required to use iCloud?  Is there a way that I can run 10.5 but NOT perform any music sharing with my other computers, iPhone or iPad?
    I use Mobile Me frequently.  I have not upgraded to iCloud for any other sharing functions.
    I realize that once I upgrade iTunes to 10.5 - I probably cannot go back to 10.4.  So, I need a clear answer about the above concern before I attempt any upgrade.
    Thank you,
    Dale

    iCloud signup and use is completely optional. You don't even need to open an iCloud account to run iTunes 10.5 or any of your devices, nor use iCloud if you have an account. I have iTunes 10.5 and do have an iCloud account, but I don't use it for anything other than the Find My iPad service.
    Regards.

  • Questions about Student Discounts for CS6

    I know for a fact I want to get the CS6 Production Premium from B&H, but only recently did I realize that my media production class could potentially make me eligible for a student discount. I have a few questions regarding getting a student discount as I have never gotten one before.
    My first question is: will I ever have to pay the rest of the full price? Or more importantly, will the student version stop working after a period of time?
    My second and most important question is about installing on more than 1 PC. I'm currently on my beast of a laptop. The iMac at my school with CS6 runs smooth as butter, and it's lower spec than my laptop. Despite this, I plan on getting a monster desktop PC in the future for my productions, and I'm confused about my rights of installation with a student copy. I fully understand that I cannot install it on another persion's computer; only on my own computer. It mentions (for teacher's I assume) that you need to purchase additional licenses for installing on other computers. Does this mean that when I buy a new computer, I need to buy a new license as well? Or can I just use the one that came in the box?
    Any clarification on these questions would be much appreciated. Thanks

    Your license doesn't expire and you never have to pay the price difference.You can only install the suite on one type of computer, even if you have 2 activations. A PC serial won't work on Mac and vice versa. Only 2 PC installs will work or 2 Mac ones, respectively. Activations can be managed from within the apps or by giving customer support a call to reset them, if you used them up and forgot to deactivate.

  • Student version upgrade

    Hello everyone,
    Is it possible to upgrade a student version because 3.5 years ago I purchaged a labview student version and in the class we spent 2 whole hours  learning about Labview. After that time in didn't look back at it but at my internship a started using labview again and purshesed Labview 8.2 for the company I was working for. When I got more familiar with Labview I started liking it more and more. My internship is over but I want to continue with using Labview but is there a way to update my 3.5 year old labview or must I buy a newer version?
    Guus

    The student edition is intended for educational use only, so I doubt you can officially upgrade it, since you're no longer a student. Maybe if you have good connections with your local NI office\academic institution you might be able to get such a copy for personal educational use. Of course, you can also volunteer to teach LabVIEW at a local school and so have a good excuse to get the school to buy some copies.
    Additionally, you can download a fully functional evaluation version, but that license is only valid for 30 days.
    Try to take over the world!

  • Question regarding student version install policies

    HI,
    Can I install my student version of Creative suite on my work PC in addition to my home PC? I'd like to be able to use it in both places.
    If so what is the procedure? This was purchased a few (2ish)  years ago, so I dont recall what I did to register other than proving I was a student then.
    Thanks
    Sharon

    Yes. Once you have the serial number you are good to go.

  • Satellite U405D - Several questions about overheat/disassembly/upgrade etc.

    Hi there,
    I have several questions about my one year old Satellite U405D-S2910
    1- When it works, after 2-3 hours (I usually run small programs like safari, msn messenger and bsplayer) CPU gets 85-90 C (178-188 F). When I play Age of Empires 2 (Come on, its an ancient game) like 2-3 hours it shuts down itself. What could be the possible reason?? By the way, let me inform you about the climate of the town I live, temp 30C - humidity 25-35% (nowadays).
    ps. Cpu= AMD Turion 64 X2 Dual-Core Mobile Processor. Model, RM-74
    2- I'm going to disassemble my laptop in order to clean its cooling units (I think reason of overheating is this). It doesnt seem like a desktop, so complicated. Ive seen a step-by-step disassembly(btw, its so hard to spell disassembly:) I think Im going to do this. What are your suggestions about it? any experiences could help me?
    3- My laptops Ram memory consists of 2X2GB PC5300 DDR2 667 MHz SDRAM, I want to replace it to 2x2GB MACH XTREME DDR2 1333MHZ CL9 NOTEBOOK RAM. Should I do it? Does it fit my laptop, work stable? any suggestions?
    ps. mainboard chipset AMD M780V
    4- finally :) , Should I use 64 bit OS or 32 bit OS (win7)? what OS would you use if you were me?
    Thank you.

    Hi buddy,
    1+2. I think everything is related to a higher internal temperature and you should clean your notebook using compressed air spray. Therefore its not necessary to disassemble it, just blow gently and shortly the air through the notebook. You can buy such compressed air spray from every computer store I think and it takes only 5 minutes.
    You can find an useful article about this here:
    3. In my opinion you should forget this update! The RAM speed is related to FSB of CPU and as far as I know on Satellite U405D its 667MHz so its already the fastest RAM that you can have. Save your money and buy a bigger HDD or in best case an SSD that can really improve the performance!
    4. In my opinion the answer is clear: Windows 7 64bit.
    Only a 64bit OS support full 4GB RAM. ;)

  • I have a question about backdating after upgrading to a larger minute plan.

    I have overages in the amount of almost 400 minutes. We downgraded our plan back in Feb., to Nationwide talk and text 700 minutes because we had huge bills and were not using the minutes with that plan. So, we noticed last months bill we had 40 minutes of overages... okay, not too bad, we didn't say anything. Then this month we noticed that our "friends and family" numbers/option for numbers were gone! Rep said NOTHING when we downgraded about loosing them, in fact, I made the comment with the rep on the phone that 700 minutes with our friends and family numbers would be plenty (and it would have been), but since we have lost those, we are now incurring huge overages. So, today I called in, had it changed to 1400 minutes, which miraculously gave us our friends and family numbers back, but they are "unable to backdate to cover the overages" and we are now looking at a $700  bill to be billed out on the 10th of May. Even our online account said to upgrade our minutes and request and backdate on the account to keep from incurring the overage charges... So, my question is, has anyone else had this problem? Is this truly non-fixable? Am I going to be stuck with a $700 bill for one month????!!!! Do I need to call back tomorrow and try again for a backdate in the plan? I feel extremely cheated right now.

    Vzn SHOULD be able to backdate your plan to cover current overages as long as your bill cycle has not closed (unless you made other changes to your account during the month). Call customer care

  • Question about education version of cs6: once per year restriction and cross platform

    I am an education use of cs6, which I currently use on my mac.  I now have a windows pc, which I would also like to use cs6 on concurrently.  My understanding is my existing license doesn't cover cross-platform use, so I would have to buy a new license.  However, education licenses also have a once per year restriction (ie. you can only buy 1 license per title per year).  So my question is, for the purpose of the once per year restriction, does the windows version count as a different title from the mac version (ie, is it once per year per title per platform)?

    http://www.adobe.com/uk/special/education/students/studentteacheredition/order_fulfillment .html
    RESTRICTIONS ON USE
    You may purchase only one license per platform of any Adobe Student and Teacher Edition product per year. Purchases of suite editions (such as Design Premium or Master Collection) are limited to one title per platform per year. Adobe Student and Teacher Edition products may be used only on your privately owned computer and may not be resold.
    Even though that's a UK link, I cannot find any other info on Adobe's website which is similar in content so I assume those rules are global.

  • Questions about OC and upgrading my 790FX-GD70

    Hey Guys,
    So Ive had this board for a while now (790FX-GD70) and am looking to throw some new parts on it, I want to throw the 1100T CPU on there (Unless MSI wisens up and enables AM3+ like they did for other boards) and was to throw in some 1600 or 1800 ram, Ive got a couple concerns though.
    1. Ive never updated the bios on thsi board (I think its 3.04), frankly Im not a huge fan of doing it and avoid it unless I absolutely have to, will I need to update the bios to throw in a thuban?
    2. The boards specs say that the board supports 1600/1800 member but only OC'd, so that means I need to OC the FSB right? But Im not sure how much overclocking this boards FSB can actually handle, if Im not mistaken for 1600 it will need to be 2400-2600 and even higher for 1800 memory. Can the board handle it? Will I have some major FSB heat issues?
    2a. What do I need to overclock? Do I need to increase the bus speed or the fsb multiplier? What voltage do I need to set for the FSB at thoes speeds?
    2b. Bus speed affects cpu clock as wel ldoesnt it? so if I boost the bus then do I have to throttle back the multiplier?
    My goal is to have the 1100t running at around 4gz and the memory will either be 1600 or 1800, it depends what I find with good timings at a decent price.
    Thanks guys!

    The Guide will come in handy. I have an 790FX-GD70 that I have done plenty of OC settings with my original Phenom II X3 720BE, and now my X6 1090T.
    Overclocking is a trial and error project. When you get a better understanding about the effects of Overclocking you will learn that it's about stability with an overclock, and not setting records. Well.. unless record setting is a part you want to play with. Stability.. there are programs to test you overclock. Many of them, some available here in downloads. Prime, Futuremark, OCCT.. choices to help you test for stability. Play safe, step by step.. that way you avoid damaging your system. There are a lot of Overclock examples on the net. Search the board and overclock. The board is now a couple of years old.. but it was a hot.. overclock board. You can find it even with your CPU as examples to learn from.
    Here's one for you.. you'll learn! You stated 1600-1800 memory speeds. OK, it's an overclock. But, the question is? Do you get a gain? Is 1800 really quicker than 1333? The number is bigger. 1600, or 1800 is bigger than 1333, or 1066. So, it must mean it's better and faster, right? Well.... if you compare reads and writes between 1333 and 1600 the gain is little or none. There are different CPU crunch uses. Like burning video or playing a game. Different demands, different setting results. The AM3 CPU is made for 1333. In some Overclocks because of timings... 1066 could offers quicker results than 1600. It's trial and tests. Not just CPU but Memory and more make an Overclock. Welcome to Overclocking. It's fun and done within limits... you will get more out of what you have. Me.. my best Overclock to date? Results I see from my 790FX-GD70? I have run 3.8 stable... and my SSD's are a better OC than tweaking my speeds. Both together... I have amid OC and am very happy.
    Good Luck

  • A Question about Driver Version #

    I am confused, as usual, but this time about which Driver Version one has on one's PC. I am NOT sure, but I think that the Driver Version # given on the Creative SB A. 2 Z, which is now 02.08.0004 is NOT called that same Version # when ON your PC. IF so - isn't this ODD?
    I ask this because I believe that I have already installed the above named Drivers - BUT - when I check my System Devices; Audgy 2 ZS; it shows the Driver Version as: 5.2.8.64.
    Can someone PLEASE tell me IF these two are really "ONE and the SAME" or not?
    Thank YOU! Michael

    What Satellite model dou you have?
    As Akuma said, you can try modified drivers or drivers that are not from Toshiba. But with these drivers you could get more problems as now.
    As far as I know the games need a lot of power and a Satellite notebook was not made for computer games. The Qosimo series is ideal for playing games.
    If you want to play games on a Satellite notebook, you should not set high quality settings in game. It runs better when you play with lower settings.

  • General Question about JRE - Versions and backward compatibility etc

    Could someone maybe help me with this query?
    I've got a group of network users who use a total of four java applications which I am told require different versions of the Java Runtime Environment to run.
    Is it therefore possible to have muliple versions of the RTE installed on one user machine to make all applications work at once or is it simply a case of having to have only one version of the JRE.
    I'm talking mainly about in house applications so I guess if some of them are incompatible with the latest JRE then the answer might be to find out what the problem is and fix the application so it works in the lates jre - or am I missing something?

    Hello,
    First of all, it is possible to keep several JRE installed in Windows. For example, my PC has JRE 1.3.1.8, 1.4.0.1, 1.4.2.6.
    Second. A tecnology exists to cause a Windowst to run a specific JRE for a specific Java applet. Please see the text below.
    HTML Applet Configuration
    � The standard (Internet) method of calling Java Runtime when using a Java Applet is to use an Applet tag within the HTML file itself specifying the applet details (example below). This tries to attach itself to Microsoft Java Runtime registry CLSID as detailed above.
    <applet code=Applet1.class width="200" height="200">
    Your browser does not support the <code>applet</code> tag.
    </applet>
    � When the above call is made either, a) the applet will load in the Microsoft Java Runtime, b) the applet will load in a particular Sun Java Runtime as it�s being redirected or c) the applet won�t load at all as Microsoft Java Runtime isn�t installed and Sun Java isn�t set as default.
    � The above can be uncontrolled as to what version of Java (if any) is actually used to launch an applet so have an alternative solution is to us the Object tag in place of the Applet tag. It�s only suitable for Internet Explorer in an internal, Intranet environment but should be ideal for us.
    � By replacing the Applet HTML tag with the Object tag when loading an applet you can specify in the tag either to use the latest installed version of Sun Java or a specific version by putting it�s CLSID in the list. (example below.)
    <OBJECT
    classid="clsid:CAFEEFAC-0014-0002-0006-ABCDEFFEDCBB"
    width="200" height="200">
    <PARAM name="code" value="Applet1.class">
    </OBJECT>
    � The advantage in the above approach is we can install a specific version of Java, i.e. 1.4.2.06 that doesn�t redirect the Microsoft Java Runtime so won�t effect other applications, and we can be safe in the knowledge that even if we install a newer version of Java on a machine that has 1.4.2.06 we won�t have any backwards compatibility problems.
    � The Object tag is an Internet Explorer only solution, but could be scaled, as to load a different version of Java you specify a different CLSID, whether that�s one of the versions of Sun Java or Microsoft Java or you can specify a CLSID that covers the latest installed version of Sun Java if you don�t want to tie the application to a specific version.
    Further details on the use of the Applet and Object tags can be found on the Sun website below so they may be of use if the HTML code that calls the Java applet can be easily changed to support our requirements.
