Can I relicense Master Collection as Production Premium

I own Master Collection CS4 and Production Premium CS4.  I have MC on my old computer.  Now that I'm setting up my new computer, I'd like to run PP on the old computer and Master Collection on the new one.
To save myself the hassle of uninstalling all of MC and then installing PP (which has many of the same apps) -- is there a way to change the activation on MC so I can JUST use the programs that are within the Production Premium subset?

Well, I just went ahead and tried the most obvious route.  I realized when you activate it lets you change the serial number... therefore:  I started up Photoshop on my old computer and then Illustrator.  It told me it was deactivated and asked if I wanted to activate.  I then chose the option where it lets you change the serial number.  I entered the number for Production Premium and it accepted it.  I just did this 5 minutes ago, so I don't know if it's going to stick -- but it looks like I'll be able to use all the apps that are part of PP, and not the other ones that exist outside of PP but were installed as part of the Master Collection.  Hopefully it continues to behave -- because that was pretty easy.

  • CS5.5 Master Collection and Production Premium -- is the 32-bit license separate?

    The CS5.5 Master Collection and Production Premium include a license for 32-bit Premiere Pro and After Effects. As I understand it, this 32-bit license can be used on a separate computer (and another user) simultaneously with the 64-bit version. Is this correct?

    Yes, that could be the answer ... but in all other aspects, this package is treated as TWO separate products -- I have it listed as two products at my Adobe product page, I've got two separate registration "rewards". And I remember a couple of months ago it was mentioned in the Premier Pro or After Effects forum by one of the heavy contributors (I haven't been able to find it again, though). That's why I'd like an "official" answer (I'm in no doubt, that i is possible and it will work, but I'm curious if it follows the rules)

  • Can I run master collection CS6 on a Mac and PC? What options do I have?

    I'm thinking about purchasing the Master Collection of CS6. My school is offering a great deal, but I have a Mac right now and would like to change over to a PC in 1-2 years, so I was wondering what I should do since I either have to buy a Mac or Windows license? And don't suggest the Cloud because monthly payments are going to cost me more in the long run considering the deal I get from my school.
    I've seen this question a couple of times, but people usually suggest the Cloud or suggest just upgrading once the person makes the platform switch. I'll have an education version, though, so I don't think I'll be able to update such a liscnese. I just haven't found any solid answers for the situation I'm in. I've also read stuff about AVLs being a solution, but I don't understand what that really means or if I could qualify for such a thing. There has got to be someway that Adobe can support someone who wants to be free to move around from platform to platform, aside from the Creative Cloud.
    Basically if I bought a Mac, education liscesne of CS6 Master Collection and then in 2 years I buy a PC what could I do to use that software on the PC?
    Thanks

    Personally, I think you're foolish to not consider Creative Cloud. As a
    student you have until April 7 to get the first year at $19.99/month.
    You probably spend more than that at Starbucks.

    I have uninstalled everything and run the clean up utility several times. PP is now hanging at the same point in the installation, at 95%. I've given it plenty of time, but after an hour at 95% it is clear nothing is happening. This has happened twice. I disabled firewall, antivirus, malware, and closed my startup items before attempting the installation, but still it hangs. I am desperate to get this installed so I can finish a project. Can anyone help me??? These DVDs are going to make very expensive beverage coasters....

  • Can I legally sell my CS3 Production Premium Academic?

    I recently purchased an academic version of Adobe CS3 Production Premium (full, not an upgrade). It has been nothing but a nightmare and I am extremely unhappy with every aspect of the product. I have deactivated it and was forced to reformat my hard drive (low level)and reinstall Windows (per recommendation of Adobe tech support) because it completely borked my TCP/IP settings somehow and caused massive registry errors, and according to Adobe, leaves markers in the MBR that relate to the Flexnet licensing and Windows operation.
    I has been well over 30 days and the vendor I purchased from stated quite clearly that I am no longer entitled to a refund, only a courtesy exchange. Since I will never use CS3 ever again, an exchange is not helpful to me.
    I have already registered the software, but now have deactivated and have no trace of Adobe software of any kind on my computer. What are the legal rights concerning selling the software package, in its entirety, through channels such as ebay? If it is legal to do so, what steps must I take to ensure that the purchaser can register and use the program without my registration conflicting?
    Thanks in advance,
    Mark Terry

    >It's hard to take a rant like this seriously, or agree with anything >that's
    >been said, when it's constructed entirely of sweeping >generalisations with
    >no reference to facts.
    I'm not writing a scientific paper for peer-based review. I'm simply giving my opinion of the software and why I am desperate to sell it to recoup my losses.
    I have already written in these forums time and time again with numerous CS3 related problems, as have hundreds of others who had similar problems with crashing software, botched installs, and endless headaches related to Flexnet licensing.
    On top of that, in the brief period of time that CS3 did work, I found Photoshop CS3 to be less responsive than CS2 (or even 7!), and the interfaces for After Effects, Encore, and Premiere had horrible "jiggly" UI elements that would shift around with terrible redraw issues.
    As an experienced computer user, my first instinct is to examine my system and reserve judgment on the software. However, after diagnostics my system was seen to be behaving normally. It's a 2.66GHz dual core system with 2GB ram and dual 8800 GTS 512 video cards, all the latest stable drivers and performs exceedingly well with all the other software I routinely utilize. Only Adobe CS3 was having this trouble; at first.
    After the numerous steps taken to deactivate, reactivate, (so many deactivations and reactivations that Adobe had to "reset" my limit twice) uninstall and reinstall, running the cs3clean utility along with the Microsoft cleanup utility my entire TCP/IP subsystem became corrupted as well as numerous registry entries. Soon my system was taking upwards of eight minutes to boot up and I had no network functionality at all.
    The fact that I was knowledgeable enough to rectify the situation doesn't diminish the fact the CS3 cost me not just hours, but weeks of hassle with its problems (causing such systemwide havoc as to render my syste unusable for any work at all). Only after all traces of Adobe software were entirely removed did my system regain normal functionality. This required a ow level format, according to Adobe, since they write licensing information to your MBR, to prevent people from using multiple copies of software in various boot sessions.
    It seems evident (to me) that the crux of the problem is the Flexnet licensing system. It is so blunt and clumsy that the slightest problem renders everything useless. I understand Adobe's need to prevent unauthorized use, but if that means punishing the legal and the loyal, and furthermore, when it interferes with the functionality and dependability of the software, then I have to say that I will not use the software.
    Whether or not the root of the problem is Flexnet, or Adobe, or my system, the bottom line is that the software simply does not do what it was intended to do.
    For now I am relying on other software, which, to varying degrees, gets the job done. Of course, I'm left with a copy of CS3 gathering dust on my shelf. The box is quite heavy though, I coud use it as a doorstop and make beer coasters of the DVDs.

  • After a computer crash, how can I re-install my CS5 Production Premium?

    My laptop is crashing, and before I do something about it I want confirmation that I can re-install my CS5 Production Premium. I need this suite for work purposes, and I don't care if I have to wipe this laptop as long as I can still get my CS5 back. I couldn't find an answer anywhere, and Adobe showed me to this forum, so here I am asking. I think it's the computer itself, and not Adobe programs causing it, however Illustrator was the first program to not open, and then Photoshop, and then my itunes, Word, picture viewer, and then it all went downhill. Now my laptop is only good for Internet, when it wants to be. Any information/insight is welcome!
