Aperture 3 Student Discount

Honestly, this isnt really a question for the general community, but if you know the answer that would be awesome. I'm hoping for an admin to pick up this thred. I've had a lot of trouble going thought customer support to ask an extremely simple question. At the moment, I'm in Italy and I have a decent SLR camera, so with all the pictures I have been taking I was thinking about upgrading to Aperture 3. I was just wondering if I, as a student at a prominent university, could get a discount on the $80.00 cost of aperature? Grazie a tutti.

Hello,
I purchased my MBP 15" Unibody 11months ago... using the student discount. I ran into problems when Aperture 3 came out and I wasn't allowed to get a discounted upgrade because I had purchased it pre-installed on a student discount device. I was told that that's how it is with aperture... and FCP (luckily I purchased a full-version of this). With the upcoming release of Lion I suddenly had a heart stopping fear... am I not going to be able to upgrade at any sort of discounted upgrade price? Will I have to pay full retail on a new version of lion?
If so then "student pricing" is just a disguised rip-off and I swear I will never buy another apple related product in my life!
Thanks

Upcoming is not a word I'd use with Lion. It won't be out for at least 8-10 months. Most OSX upgrades have been reasonably priced. Snow Leopard was like $30.
And, there is no "upgrade" vs. full version of OSX (although that might change, but I've heard nothing about it).
Basically, you have nothing to worry about, and certainly not anything to complain about. This is not Windows with complex upgrading schemes. Usually Apple provides the upgraded OSX if you buy a new Mac within a few weeks of the upgrade, but they would never offer that after nearly 2 years. And I'm sure there will be a student priced version of Lion.
Your rant, therefore, is a bit illogical.

  • Student Discount, Double Charges, and Mediocre Support

    I have been using spotify for quite some time now. I have paid my fair share of 9.99/mo, and quite frankly, I don't mind paying money to avoid someone or something blaring obnoxiously in my ear every 45 seconds. The one thing that did, and still does, irk me beyond words was when I attempted to sign up for the $4.99/mo deal for twelve months, I was not given the 4.99 rate for a full twelve months...but that was a while ago, and I had since gotten over it...until... Today I attempted to renew the 12 month $4.99 deal and was not only charged once, but twice; both charges appear on my bank statement and not at all on my Spotify Account Receipts. It gets better, though...I wasn't even given the promised upgraded features, and after reading some fine print (lovely) I noticed that I could reuse this offer 4 times (just as long as I am still enrolled in my accredited university, which I am). So, after realizing that Spotify doesn't have a support number, but rather a bulletin board and more-or-less a system to send complaints to, here I am, posting, hoping that I can get reimbursed the money I was charged. Thanks,A very frustrated customer.

    Hello!
    The student discount  must be renewed each year.
    You need to first cancel your current Premium, and once you revert back to Free, you may resubscribe to the student discount.
    Now for the refund, you might want to contact support directly here so they can help you. Keep in mind they will decide your eligibility for the refund.
    If you receive an automated email telling you to check the help section or the community, you need to reply back to it, even if it's from a no-reply address.
    Support usually answers within 24-48 hours.
    Hope this helps! ♫

  • Is it at all possible to still get the physical cd's for the CS6 from the adobe website with my college student discount?

    I am currently a college student studying photography and my college gives us a free download of Adobe Creative Cloud Master Collection, but once we graduate it will be deleted from our computers. I graduate in May. I am trying to use my student discount to get the the CS6 Master Collection while I still can, but I would like to get the physical CD's to download the programs, and not the Creative Cloud apps simply downloaded over the internet. Is this still possible at all?

    Meagancon it is likely you will be entitled to receive a download.  You are welcome to download and burn the installation files to a DVD.

  • Is there a student discount for Photoshop CS6?

    I am slightly confused about this, looking for an answer on my own I went through this process:
    I found the page for the Creative Suite 6 Products, and on the right side it says "CS6 or Creative Cloud? If you want all-new versions of your favorite creative software — including Photoshop CC and Illustrator CC — join Creative Cloud. If you prefer the previous version, CS6, you can purchase it here. For upgrade eligibility and purchasing options, see the Creative Suite 6 FAQ."
    So, I went to the Creative Suite 6 FAQ, where I saw the question, "Does Adobe offer education discounts?" with the answer, "Yes. Qualifying full- or part-time students, faculty, and staff of accredited educational institutions can purchase Adobe products at a reduced price." So, I poked around on the checkout page for Adobe Photoshop CS6, but there seemed to be no way to apply an education discount. I then clicked the Purchasing FAQ link on the checkout page, next the Education FAQ link, and from there the student and teacher product catalog under purchase options, but Creative Suite 6 is not listed in any form. The only options presented on the page are Creative Cloud Membership, Photoshop CC, Photoshop Lightroom, Creative Cloud Photography Plan, Photoshop Elements 13 & Adobe Premiere Elements 13, and Photoshop Elements 13.
    Is there another spot with other student discounts, is the CS6 FAQ misleading and there's not really a student discount for CS6, or am I missing something else?
    Thanks for the help!

  • In the UK, if i get a student discount, is the warranty covers my macbook pro for 3 years?

    In the UK, if i get a student discount, is the warranty covers my macbook pro for 3 years?
    I bought a new macbook pro yesterday, and I received a student discount, but I found out that my warranty is for just one year.
    Yes I can see at the "Online" Education store, that it should be 3 years, but the thing is I bought this at the "retail" store in London.
    I think it should be 3 years as same as at online store,
    Can anybody help me about this? 

    Call AppleCare UK and ask them.  (44) 0844 209 0611****£0.05p per minute when dialed from a landline within the UK. Call charges may vary when calling from a mobile phone.

  • Macbook with student discount

    I've just finished my A levels and will almost certainly be starting university in october. The question is, do I have to wait till then if I want to get myself a student discount?
    Cheers,
    sd

    Student discounts are only available for college and university students. Proof of enrollment is required when you place your order. So, yes, you will have to wait until you have officially enrolled in a university or college.
    Why reward points?(Quoted from Discussions Terms of Use.)
    The reward system helps to increase community participation. When a community member gives you (or another member) a reward for providing helpful advice or a solution to their question, your accumulated points will increase your status level within the community.
    Members may reward you with 5 points if they deem that your reply is helpful and 10 points if you post a solution to their issue. Likewise, when you mark a reply as Helpful or Solved in your own created topic, you will be awarding the respondent with the same point values.

    You will have to contact a local Apple store or reseller to find out the policies on education discounts as we are all fellow users and cannot speak for Apple or its afiliates.

  • Does the mac book pro 3 year care plan have a student discount?

    I purchased my laptop (mac book pro) in march 2014 & I'm thinking of buying the care plan which will be valid for 3 years. Could I know if there's a student discount for the care plan & if it's valid from the date of purchase of the laptop or the date of purchase of the care plan?
    I bought my laptop from a UK apple store for student price & my university is registered as an educational institution on the apple website.

    The care plan extends your coverage from date-of-purchase to the three-year mark, and provides free telephone support for that entire period.
    In general, there are no additional student discounts on the care plan.
    The care plan covers defects in materials and workmanship up to the three year mark. On a MacBook, it does not cover accidental damage or liquid spills. But owners of the care plan have been known to get the 'benefit of the doubt' in close judgement calls about warranty coverage.
    You must choose to purchase it within the first year of coverage, or it becomes unavailable. This is to preclude users waiting until a problem occurs and then buying care. Like any sort of insurance, it remains affordable because some purchases will be covered, but will not need to collect on it.

  • What is needed for the Student Discount?

    Hi, ordering (Well, my parents are. Im just helping) a Mac book soon for my brother who attends NJIT. What would I need to do to obtain the student discount? Is there anything I would need from my brother such as student id or something like that or is it just straight "order with student discount".
    I am wondering this because the Mac book is supposed to be a gift for his birthday, and I dont want him finding out about it heh.
    Thank you.

    If purchasing MacBook at brick and mortar Apple Store,student ID or letter of acceptance must be shown.
    If ordering at Apple Store Online,its on the honor system.Just pick his school out of the list and agree to terms.

  • Question about Apple's Student Discount

    Has Apple always given a student discount the past few years? I don't want to wait for the new OS if there won't be a discount and a free printer and iPod.

    You have to order from the online educational store.

  • Can I get a student discount in Australia?

    I don't want to pay $12 a month, but $5 for me is doable. I'm a student, and i've seen people talking about a student discount in the UK and US If it's not available in Australia, why not?

    Spotify doesn't currently offer a student discount for Australia, but you can show your support by giving this idea a kudo:
