Would you upgrade from Design Premium CS5 to CS5.5?

I am always weary of upgrading to mid-year releases like this because usually there are more headaches than benefits. Would I be missing out on a lot of functionality by not upgrading from Design Premium CS5 to CS5.5? I primarily use Indesign to lay-out interactive digital publications. Any advice or words of wisdom would be appreciated!
Cheers!
Steve

If you're working with epubs, definitely upgrade! Here's an article that lists the new features.

Can I upgrade from CS2 to CS4 and skip CS3?

Can I upgrade from CS2 to CS4 and skip CS3? It would save me time.

Colin,
>But I did exactly what everyone on here said they did, went onto adobe.com to do our research, saw that the upgrade works from CS2-CS4
Adobe shows there are multiple versions of the suites on their site and clearly points the way for purchasing at the Adobe Store. Just for the heck of it, I also went to MacMall.com and MacConnection.com, two well-known online resellers. I checked their Adobe CS4 upgrades, and they clearly indicate which older versions they are meant to go with. Not quite so clear from MacZone.com and a few other reseller sites I visited.
>I am an IT person for a printing company, and as such I spent hours upon hours preparing for this transition.
It took me just a few minutes to find the correct version I needed.
>no one can tell the difference, and most vendors don't know it exists. We could help you, but you didn't buy it from us."
Maybe the reseller you bought from is just sloppy and didn't mark the SKUs properly. But how is this Adobe's fault -- particularly when other vendors can and DO get it right?
Also as both Mac and Win upgrades are pretty much determined and marketed the same way, what does this sloppiness have to do with Mac market share?
But that said, there is enough good information on the Adobe site that should trigger some questions if you as the IT guy have any doubts and are responsible for buying for your company. At the least, doesn't it make sense to call Adobe and ask which SKUs you should buy? It could've saved hours of research time.
If you truly did your research and purchasing carefully and were still fooled, I suggest you start with a complaint to the reseller who sold you the goods.

Can I reinstall Adobe Design Premium cs5.5 Student and Teacher edition onto another computer?

Can I reinstall (deactivate on old computer and activate on new computer) Adobe Design Premium cs5.5 Student and Teacher edition onto another computer? If this is possible would I have to prove that I am a student again, send you the documents etc?

Can't upgrade from prod prem CS4 to CS6

Hey guys
the other day I was on adobe trying to get a price on upgrading to CS6 prod premium-- I had a disappointing online convo with adobe saying that my only 2 options are now because CS4 is technically 3 versions back-- were to buy the full version of CS6 for $1899 (instead of upgrading for about $750 as that is no longer an option) or go to the creative cloud, where for the rest of your life if you want to use adobe products you must pay a monthly fee-- NO WAY
When was this made public that we can't upgrade anymore from 3 versions back? How is this good business? Who wants this creative cloud? Who wants to pay a monthly fee for using this software? Am I the only one that thinks this business practice is unnerving? Where is Adobe getting the data that says people want to be roped into a monthly fee indefinitely?
Please help me understand
Thanks
Tony

Well, within certain version parameters, upgrading is still viable. However, the limitation was imposed on how many versions back still qualify.
Adobe is not the first software company to do this. Corel did it many years ago with CorelDraw. I have version 3, and skipped version 4, as I was using Illustrator for similar work much more often. Then, CorelDraw 5 was released, with some useful features. I found that I had to first upgrade to version 4 (near the full-paid price), and then to version 5, again at near the full-paid price. I mulled it over, and decided that Illustrator filled my bill well enough. At about that time, I upgraded my AI 3.x to 5.x, skipping a complete version, with no issues (old Adobe upgrade policy), and I think that it only cost me about US 80, where upgrading CorelDraw to the coincidental version would have cost about US $ 400, or about the same as buying the later version outright.
When PrPro CS 3 came out, I hesitated, waiting for Adobe to smooth out some kinks. Then PrPro CS 4 was introduced, with updates coming in a fairly constant stream. I waited, reading the forums closely. Then, with the introduction of PrPro CS 5, the new policy was announced, though that did change a bit. I went ahead, and went with CS 5, then upgraded to CS 5.5, to get the free upgrade, as soon as CS 6 was launched (small window of opportunity there). For me, CS 6 might be the end of the line, as I have retired, and am now only using the program(s) for personal use, plus working on issues for the forum.
For me, the CCloud does not really offer much of an inducement, but for many others, it is just what they need - the X-platform usage is a big plus for many, but being a PC-only guy, does nothing for me.
Am I the happiest patron? No, though at one time I almost never missed any release, or DOT release, for all of my Adobe programs. Now, well not so much, so I need to stay abreast of changes in upgrade policies. Like I mentioned, CS 6 will likely be the end-of-the-line, but only because I cannot amortize the cost of software upgrades, as I could before - not because I am dissatisfied with Adobe or their products. Software upgrade policies are, what they are, and I have just learned to live with those.
Good luck,
Hunt

Upgrade from Design Premium CS4 to Production Premium CS5

Will InDesign, Fireworks, and Dreamweaver still function from Design CS4 to Production CS5? I have heard conflicting advise that the upgrade will void those applications?? Thanks.

The upgrade will not touch the earlier version. Whoever told you otherwise was incorrect.

Upgrade from CS6 Standard to CS6 Web Premium?

I just bought CS6 Standard, but realize that I might need Flash and/or Dreamweaver. Can I upgrade to CS6 Web Premium?

You’ll need to call Adobe directly and ask.

Can I upgrade from the standard destiny pre-order to the ghost edition?

Hey is there anyway I can upgrade my regular Destiny pre-order to the Ghost Edition or will I have to canel my previous preorder to buy the Ghost Edition?

Hello Treveyon,
Thanks for pre-ordering Destiny at Best Buy! With the recent announcement of the Ghost and Limited Editions of Destiny, it’s no surprise that you’d be inquiring about switching your pre-order. I’ve only recently started really digging into the details of Destiny and I can already tell that this game will likely live up to the hype, and then some!
Kandlestick makes a few pretty good points. First, you would need to cancel your existing pre-order for the standard edition of Destiny and create a new pre-order for the Ghost Edition. However, as Kandlestick also mentioned, you may want to check the availability of the Ghost edition prior to cancelling your current pre-order. To my knowledge, the Ghost version is likely no longer available due to it being very limited in quantity. Click here to see the different versions and their availability.
If you wish to cancel your current pre-order, the method of doing so is determined by how you originally pre-ordered the game. If you pre-ordered on BestBuy.com, log in to your account and pull up the order. You should be able to cancel the pre-order from within the current order details. If you pre-ordered in-store, simply return to the store with your receipt and visit the Customer Service desk.
Please let us know if you have any further questions!
Cheers,
Brian|Senior Social Media Specialist | Best Buy® Corporate

Unable to upgrade adobe design premium from cs5.5 to cs6. Problem with eligibility of cs5.5 serial number

I upgraded from design premium cs5.5 to design premium cs6 and am unable to install. I get all the way to where it asks for the serial number of my prior product. Then it complains that the serial number dosent represent an eligible product. The install is on a new machine that has never had the adobe product installed. I unregistered the cs5.5 product on my old machine before trying to install cs0.

Contact serial number support by web chat.

Upgrade cs3 design premium to cs 5.5 web premium

Can I upgrade cs3 design premium to cs 5.5 web premium and will I lose the functionality of the Indesign CS3 that I have now?

I believe it will but you must find the right upgrade and finding a CS5.5 upgrade is not going to be easy. Why not just get the CS6 Web and Design Premium package (that eligibility ends soon) or better yet, take advantage of the intro pricing for Creative Cloud. At $29.99/month it’s a bargain: http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud.html
