Can I upgrade an upgrade?

OK.
I currently have no creative suite full or full product, etc.
I am finding a few places where I can get a Creative Suite 3 Design Standard or Web Standard UPGRADE.  Note: UPGRADE
I have asked support chat, but I am a bit wary. They say that I can buy the CS4 Production Premium, Design Standard, whatever UPGRADE and upgrade the CS3 UPGRADE.
Can anyone verify this?
In other words, if I purchase a CS3 upgrade disc without having a full copy of a previous version would I be able to upgrade to CS4 (whatever suite) with that CS3 upgrade disc without providing anything else?

On behalf of Adobe ...
You could only buy a CS4 Upgrade to upgrade a CS3 Upgrade if the CS3 Upgrade was actually upgrading something.
At some point, you would have had to have a FULL product, not just an upgrade.

PS:     Take Michael Kazlow's comment to heart. Much of what is offered in terms of old versions of either full or update products is bogus, either having already been used as the basis of someone's upgrade, pirated software, or attempts to illegally "unbundle" bulk licenses. Buyer beware! (Of course, per above, an "upgrade" version of CS3 won't help you anyway if you don't already have a full version!)

  • I have just updated to iOS7, no icon for browser, was using Safari, how do I get it back and can I reverse the upgrade and go back to iOS6?

    I have just updated to iOS7, no icon for browser, was using Safari, how do I get it back and can I reverse the upgrade and go back to iOS6?  Thanks to you from the UnTechie

    The icon for Safari has probably moved to make room for new apps. Scroll the Home screen to look for it.
    You cannot reverse the upgrade.

  • Can't get past "Upgrade to iTunes 10" ad

    I recently searched Google for pre-done music mixes to listen to when I run. I found a site that has several mixes. I chose a "Classic Rock" mix. There was a link to click that took me to the iTunes Store, where I could preview the songs. I bought the mix -- it was all good. Then a few days ago I went to the same site, selected another running music mix, and clicked on the link that should have taken me to the iTunes store to preview the songs. BUT, I ended up on a page that advertises iTunes 10, with a link to click to download it. I can't download iTunes 10 with the OS I have, but that's beside the point. I simply can't get to the list of songs in the music mix/can't preview the songs. I've spent 3 days going back and forth with someone in iTunes Support, and he can't figure it out. What he did say was when he goes through all the steps I did, starting on the running music website, he also gets the "ad" page for iTunes 10, but there a place to click for "Download" AND a place to click for "Don't Download." I don't have a "Don't Download" button.
    Does anyone have any ideas?

    You don't need a new computer. If you just want to purchase - which has nothing to do with the original question in this thread which, BTW, is almost six months old - you probably just need iTunes 9.2.1 which you can get if you upgrade your system to Mac OS X 10.4.11. If you want full functionality with the iTunes Store, you can probably just upgrade to Mac OS X 10.5 which will allow you to run iTunes 10.
    And no, no one from Apple is going to be listening in this old thread, and they wouldn't reply if they were since these forums are for user-to-user assistance. I can't comment on your "customer service" since I have no idea what routes you pursued in an attempt to find a solution to your difficulties.

  • I have an older I Mac operating system 10.6.8 and want to upgrade.  I've been told that the only upgrade available for my machine is 10.7.5.  On what website can I find this upgrade or how do I find this upgrade on the Apple website?

    Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Xeon or Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU and 2GB of RAM, and if it does, click here and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
    Back up your data and check your applications for compatibility before upgrading. In particular, Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC programs such as versions of Microsoft Office prior to 2008.

    More everything. I have one line coming up on the 19th of this month and I'd like to transfer to another user with a later upgrade date. Just not seeing the option anywhere.

  • Can i install the upgrade ilife11 on TWO computers?

    I bought the ilife 11 upgrade and installed it succesfully on my imac. Am I allowed to also install it in my macbook?

    Do you mean is it possible, legal or ethical to do. Two of those have definite answers but seeing you are asking on a Apple discussion board, I can tell you the upgrade is for one computer.

  • I have a 3GS phone that can no longer be upgraded on my Powerbook because it is ancient and can only run 10.4.11, consequently itunes will only upgrade to 9.2.1(4). Is there any way i can upgrade the phone so hereafter i will not need a computer to do it.

    I have a 3GS phone that can no longer be upgraded on my Powerbook because it is ancient and the os will only run 10.4.11, consequently iTunes will only upgrade to 9.2.1(4). Please don't answer that i need to upgrade the computer os because that has been a past nightmare i have been through too many times.
    Is there any way i can upgrade the phone w/o going to an apple store so hereafter w/ the upgrade to the new os (whenever that gets squared away), i will not need a computer to do it?
    Thanks in advance,

    Solved my issue by setting up a new account on my daughter's computer. Not 100% solved, but i was able to get the update on my 3GS.

  • I currently have Leopard, and there are no longer updates for it. So I must upgrade to either Snow Leopard or Mountain Lion. Without doing so I cannot update my itunes, and my ipod is no longer compatile with my mac. How can I buy the upgrade

    I currently have Leopard, and there are no longer updates for it. So I must upgrade to either Snow Leopard or Mountain Lion. Without doing so I cannot update my itunes, and my ipod is no longer compatile with my mac. How can I buy the upgrade, since I do not have access to the mac store as that comes with Snow Leopard? I went to Best Buy and they said neither Snow Leopard or Mountain Lion can be bought there.

    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $20 for a single user, or $30 for a family pack that covers up to 5 Macs.  You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:
    http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
    If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
    To use iCloud you have to upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion:

  • I can no longer (since upgrading to the latest firefox) open up multiple tabs of the same page (something I need to be able to do when emailing and referencing multiple emails while writing one email). The only option it gives me is to 'switch to tab'.

    Question
    I can no longer (since upgrading to the latest firefox) open up multiple tabs of the same page (something I need to be able to do when emailing and referencing multiple emails while writing one email). The only option it gives me is to 'switch to tab'.

    I'll try to make this clear. I USED to be able to left click on a hyper link and the hyper link would open in a NEW tab. Now for some unknown reason the hyper link by default opens in the same tab (window). I have to right click the hyper link in order for it to open in a NEW tab. (Yes, my 'tools'> 'options'> 'tabs' are set to "open new windows in a new tab." (Please no answers telling me to get rid of the Ask toolbar because I don't have one.) Thank you.

    I don't think adobe offers an upgrade path from photoshop album 2.0, but you can find photoshop elements
    12 cheaper at your local box store than even the adobe upgrade price.
    They are both the full versions anyway.

  • Where can I purchase an upgraded GPU for my PM G5? What card should I get?

    I don't know much about Macs but I need to purchase an upgraded video card for somebody in our graphic design department.
    Can I purchase an upgraded video card directly through Apple or is there another preferred vendor somebody here can recommend?
    I read that the ATI 4870 is likely the best video card available for the Mac at this point in time, can somebody confirm this or tell me what else I should opt for?
    Thanks in advance!
    P.S. I don't see anywhere on the Apple website where I can actually purchase a GPU...can somebody please provide a link?

    Hello again, The hatter.
    Although OP does specifically mention ATI 4870, and although Apple sells ATI 4870, it seems to me that the Apple 4870 product page
      http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB999ZM/A
    does NOT assure OP of compatibility with his Mac Pro "Quad Core" 2.66 (Original) from August 2006.
      http://support.apple.com/kb/SP30
    I am not knowledgeable in these specifics. Perhaps you know the answer to these questions.
    (1) Can the ATI 4870 work with OP's August 2006 QuadCore MacPro, or does he need some different upgrade-video card?
    (2) Should OP be looking for a ATI Radeon X1900 XT or NVIDIA Quadro FX 4500 (or equivalents) rather than ATI 4870 to upgrade his August 2006 QuadCore MacPro's video card?

  • I purchase my iphone 3gs from online deal, can I get the upgraded one

    Hi,
    I purchase my iphone 3gs from snapdeal portal, my query is can I get the upgrade of the same to iphone 4?
    I am having invoice of purchase iphone 3gs, Please let me know if I can directly go to apple gallery to get the upgraded one?
    Thanks
    Rakesh

    He has just given you your answer - 'Snapdeal is not an authorised Apple seller' so no you can't.
    Also, how on earth do you expect him to help you get an upgrade?  This is a user forum.
    The only way that you can upgrade is through your phone company/carrier and that is if you are elegible and you will have to pay.
    If you don't have a contract with carrier and you want an iPhone 5, then you'll have to go out and buy one like everyone else.
