Can I upgrade from CS4 extended to CS5

I dont use the extra features in CS4 extended, so it would be better value for me to upgrade to just CS5 - is this allowed?

yes, of course you can...

  • Upgrade from CS4 extended to CS5

    I have Photoshop CS4 extended. Purchased the upgrade to CS5, loaded the disc, ran the installation , all seemed Ok.
    However my current version of CS4 is still displayed - Is there a diffenece in the updrade discs you need to purchase?
    Won't be too happy as I ordere d by phone and I explained what I had ? . Not a happy bunny with Adobe at the moment.
    And try caling support at the weekend - aaagh !

    The correct forum for this question is http://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop and from there pick your platform. But wish you to know that I have PSCS3, PSCS4 and PSCS5 still installed on my comp. Updates don't override the previous version.

  • Upgrade from CS4 Extended Education to CS6

    Two questions here. I purchased the educational version of CS4 Extended back when I was in school. No longer in school, I wish to upgrade to CS6 non-educational. First question: Can I upgrade using my educational licence to a non-educational one? Second question: Can I upgrade from CS4 Extended to CS6 Standard? I have no need of the extras with Extended.
    Thanks.

    Yes and yes. refer to the buying guide on the product pages.

  • MAC UPGRADE FROM CS4 STANDARD TO CS5 STANDARD OR EXTENDED

    Hello,
    I'm interested to find out how to MAC UPGRADE FROM CS4 STANDARD TO CS5 STANDARD OR EXTENDED. Its my intention to buy the upgrade not thru
    download, but purchasing the dvd's needed eventually used if necessary.
    Thank you

    No, forget it. Adobe only sells current versions. How would you even be able to buy a used upgrade that is tied to someone else's previous version? Makes no sense at all and is clearly a breach of the EULA - whoever may sell you this "upgrade" would have to include all his previous versions leading up to that point, making it a completely independent full license that has no relation whatsoever to your CS4. And you would still have to run the license transfer drill.

  • Can I upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5 after installing Lion?

    Can I upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5 after installing Lion?   Or should I have done it before installing Lion?

    I think you are missing my point.
    For the last many editions of the creative suite they have each been completely independent. There is no "going over a previous version. Each version stands on its own and is a clean install — as long as you haven't installed that specific version before.
    And "obsolete" is a pretty relative term. With products as complex as the creative suite there are often features (or even whole applications) that change between versions. Many people I know keep earlier versions around, just for that very reason.

  • Can I upgrade from CS3 Extended to CS6 Extended? [was:Photoshop]

    As far as I'm aware you can only upgrade to CS6 Extended from CS5 Extended

  • How can I upgrade from CS4 to CS5/CS6?

    Hi, I really need to upgrade my Adobe suite from CS4 to CS5 or higher. From reading in this forum you are unable to do it, but those posts were from 2012. Wondering if this is still current and if anyone can help me? Do I need to buy the entire suite again from scratch? Surely not?
    I have a student version by the way.
    Thanks!

    You cannot upgrade from Photoshop CS4.  Those days are long past.
    While you can buy a full license for (the now outdated) Photoshop CS6, your most cost effective alternative may be to consider the Creative Cloud "Photographer's Bundle" subscription...

  • Can I upgrade from CS3 directly to CS5 or 5.5?

    Or do I need to buy CS4?

    Not sure which product you have (suite or standalone), but they all have different upgrade prices depending on which version you already own. You can upgrade directly from CS3 to CS5. It'll be more expensive than the CS4 to CS5 upgrade, but cheaper than upgrading to CS4 first, then to CS5. The last option would assume that you can even find a copy of CS4 to purchase.

  • Can I upgrade from Illustrator CS3 to Cs5?

    Hi,
    I have an older version CS3 pack education version; I am using illustrator and photoshop; my question is, can I upgrade illustrator and photoshop CS3 to CS5 or CS5.5 directly and skip the version CS4 in the middle?  Thanks.

    Educational versions are not eligible for ANY upgrade. (Read the license) So, no.
    If you had the commercial version you could skip CS4 and jump straight to CS5, yes.
    Realize Adobe no longer sells anything prior to CS6, upgrade or otherwise.

  • Upgrading [from CS4 DP to CS5.5 DS] vs. Purchasing Full [in Education Store]

    I currently have CS4 Design Premium, but would like to purchase CS5.5 Design Standard. I am a college student [pursuing a degree in graphic design]; therefore it is more cost efficient if I purchase the full package from the Education Store, rather than purchasing the upgrade itself. There seems to be a rather large difference in price, and as a college student, I don't have a large supply of money to use at will.
    I'm wondering if it would cause any problems to purchase from the Education Store instead of the Upgrade?
    I figured I'd just uninstall the programs I have, then install the new versions. The only problem I could foresee would be something with me having purchased a product from the Educational Store before. Does anyone know what the protocol here would be?
    I would be very grateful for any help you could give me!
    Thanks!

    If you're still a student you would be foolish not to take advantage of academic pricing. Go for it.
    In fact you can save a few extra bucks buying it at Amazon: http://amzn.to/odENtC
    $279 with free shipping.
    BTW, I believe the only limit (besides having to be a student) is that you can only buy one copy of a program per year. This is new a version so I can't see any problem with that.
    Hope that helps,

  • Upgrading from CS4 design to CS5 web

    I have the CS4 design premium suite. Does anyone know if I can purchase the CS5 web premium upgrade as is, or do I have to purchase full versions of the missing components of the web suite before I purchase the web premium upgrade? If someone could help, that would be greatly appreciated.

    You can, but why do you want to? What will you find in the Web suite that's missing from Design. Answer: Flash Builder and Contribute.
    IMO, Design Premium is the best bang for the buck out there and covers just about anything most designers would need. I have an article on my website you might find worthwhile: http://www.theindesignguy.com/purchase-advice.shtml
    Also, be careful when buying. You need to get the CS4 to CS5 upgrade. You can get it on Amazon for about $580: http://amzn.to/ahaavR
    Design Premium is $578: http://amzn.to/alNI7q
    Hope that helps,

  • Upgrade from CS3 extended to CS5

    Does anyone know if I am able to just upgrade to the regular CS5, rather then the extended version?  I found I'm not using the features and it's over $100.00 more to upgrade the extended version.
    I'm in Australia and was hoping to buy from Amazon which is cheaper even with the exchange rate.  But maybe I need to go through Adobe Australasia.  Any advice?
    Thanks so much,
    Paulette

    You need to work this out with support. Whoever you had on the line wasn't particularly well-informed it would seem. Platform swapping requires extra steps as laid out here. Once you fileld out the form, you receive a different serial and that will work then.

  • Can I upgrade from the MAC version CS5 to the PC version CS6?

    Hi all, I have a single marketing machine that is a MAC with CS5 suite.  We want to change over this MAC to a PC and I wanted to know if I can upgrade to the CS6 suite PC version.  I don't want the cloud because this laptop will not always have an internet connection.  So is it possible and what is the cost?
    Thanks!

    You can make a platform switch. Otherwise you misunderstand how CC works. The programs still install locally and can be used offline if you don#t use any of the online features. They only require a check of your account every now and then to see if your subscription is still active.

  • Installer Problems - PS CS4 Extended into CS5 Extended

    A couple of weeks after I upgraded to CS4 Extended, CS5 Extended was released, and Adobe was nice enough to 'grandfather' me into an upgrade.
    However, when I install, it doesn't work.  It asks for 'eligible' upgrade products, and while CS4 is on the list, CS4 Extended is NOT...????
    So am I out of luck?   Am I doing something wrong here?  Why would someone be eligible to upgrade from CS4 to CS5 Extended, but not from CS4 extended to CS5 Extended.
    This is one of these frustrations that really gets you...because I know that in my neighborhood there are probably already ten people using CS5 Extended, and the only reason they can is that they're unethical and using a cracked version.
    How do I get around this?  I'm running in 'trial' now
    JT

    If it asks just for "Photoshop CS4", then according to Adobe's own linguistics this would cover both versions. in that case inputting the serial would be the only differentiation criteria. If it doesn't work, then call support. You may have been given a wrong serial and only they can handle this. This is a user forum, after all...
