Can I upgrade to Master Collection CS5.5 without uninstalling Design Premium CS3

Hi,
I work for a company that has offices worldwide, but do not have the budget to upgrade all licences which is why I need to keep InDesign/Illustrator CS3.
I wish to switch from Final Cut Express to Adobe Premier Pro/After Effects (I don't like the new Final Cut Pro X - for many reasons)
Can I upgrade to Master Collection CS5.5 without uninstalling Design Premium CS3?
Many Thanks,
Sandeep
(iMac 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 10.6.8)

Absolutely. The upgrade won't touch the earlier version.
Make sure you buy the right upgrade. Here's a link to it on Amazon: http://amzn.to/oRnKh4

  • Can I sell licensed full version Master Collection CS5 without license transfer?

    I purchase a full version of Adobe Master Collection CS5 on eBay and registered it with Adobe. I am now using the Creative Cloud and do not need it anymore but apparently Adobe has a rule that if you purchased it from eBay and/or it was discounted by a high margin that you can not transfer the registration. Does this prevent me from selling it to a someone who does not mind that they can not register it?
    I guess I am also asking - can someone use a licensed version of the Master Collection - install it on their computer and have full functionality - but not register it?

    No. Your AdobeID is yours alone - letting anyone else use it would breach your license.
    There is no special limitation on transfer of software that was legally purchased from a reseller, even if it was discounted - with the exception of educational and volume licenses. You're only allowed to transfer four licenses in your lifetime (that's to stop people setting themselves up as a bulk reseller) but the same license can be transferred more than once.

  • How do I upgrade my master collection cs5.5 to cs6?

    I have the Master Collection cs5.5 but I haven't found any help or anything on upgrading it. Help?

    Are you under the impression that this upgrade is free?

  • I bought Adobe CS6 Design Web Premium, can I upgrade to Master Collection ?

    I bought Adobe CS6 Design Web Premium in marth 2014.
    Now I'm in university and I will learn how to use Adobe Premiere Pro.
    Unfortunately, this software isn't include in the suite that I purchased.
    Is it possible to upgrade to the Master Collection suite ? Or maybe to have a special price to buy the Creative Suite Production Premium ?
    Thank you.

    As a student you are usually able to purchase Adobe software at a reduced price.  While you cannot usually upgrade a student/teacher version of software you can still purchase the software at a substantial savings.  You should look into this if you have noit already done so.
    For details regarding the student/teacher provisions you can refer to the following information page:

    Another good resource for getting information is the student and teacher edition information forum:

  • Master collection 5.5 vs design premium 5.5...need to uninstall?

    I have the Master Collection 5.5 on my macbook pro. I had to do a reinstall after some repairs and my collection reverted to trial. I no longer have the serial number, and never registered it, so I'm stuck buying the software again. I've found a download/serial number of Design Premium 5.5 for a reasonable price and will purchase it (I only use indesign, photoshop, and illustrator anyway). Can I use that serial number on the screen that pops up from my master collection, or do I need to uninstall master collection and install design premium (does design premium come as a package or is it just each application separately?)?
    Thanks for the help!

    You will have to uninstall and install the premium package. your serial number won't work on an MC. DP is a suite just like MC and uses a single installer to put multiple apps at once on your computer.

  • I have an upgrade to the Master Collection CS5 from Production Studio premium and after reinstalling the software all the updates fail.

    "There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later." In the past I had to contact Adobe because CS5 had a problem with the upgrade even though it was legal and had to press a few keys and enter a special code generated at Adobe.
    I am running a Mac with Yosemite
    How can I get my software to update?

    Daniel.e.weber please download and apply the updates directly from Product updates.

    Hi,
    Where can i download Adobe Master Collection CS5.5? I have downloaded the files some time back but my computer got virus infected and i have lost my files?

    Trying to download from this server. Getting the below message.
    Access Denied
    You don't have permission to access "http://trials2.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/STAM/CS5_5/win32/MasterCollection_CS5_5_LS1.7z?" on this server.

    One more question. Can I download a single product say for example Adobe Fireworks CS5.5 and use the Adobe Master Collection Serial number on it.

  • How do I upgrade from Master Collection 5.5 to Photoshop Photography Program

    I have valid serial numbers (i.e. I purchased the products) for Master Collection 5.5 and Design Premium CS4. I have tried using these for the Photoshop Photography Program but neither of them are accepted. Any ideas?

    Did you register the products?  If you click on the red adobe icon above and go to my stuff/programs are they listed?

  • Existing Adobe master Collection CS5 will not upgrade to CS6

    I have an existing installation of Adobe Master Collection CS5. When I try to upgrade to CS6 it does not recognize the CS5 serial number it says it is not a qualifying product. What can I do about it?

    The 3rd option in the buying guide table includes Master Collection CS5 as an upgrade path.
    @tgms: if Master Collection CS5 is already installed on the computer where you're trying to install MC CS6, the CS6 installer should find CS5 automatically and not require you to enter your CS5 serial number.
    Call Adobe Customer Service in your country. User to user forums cannot help you with serial number issues. Only Adobe themselves can do that.

  • Upgrade Flash builder 4 from Master Collection CS5 to Flash builder 4.7

    HI ! A few years ago, I bought Master Collection CS5 (Flash builder 4).
    Yesterday, I bought an upgrade for Flash builder 4.7 but when I try to activate it, the serial I give (Master Collection CS5) is not valid.
    What can I do ?
    Regards,

    Hi,
    Standard appears to be available here:
    https://store5.adobe.com/cfusion/store/html/index.cfm?store=OLS-IE&event=displayProduct&ca tegoryPath=/Applications/FlashBuilderStandard&distributionMethod=FULL
    Also matrix is here:
    http://www.adobe.com/uk/products/flex/buy/
    It will be different for your location, but if you click on the "purchasing options" from the Flash Builder 4 home page you should be able to get Standard.

  • Master Collection CS5 30 Day Trial

    Is it still possible to get a trial of Master Collection CS5?  I have found nothing and I would really like to check this out as a moving up option rather than the brand new 5.5.  Thanks to anyone that can help in advance!

    Since you no longer can buy CS5 anywhere other than used copies or perhaps a few remnants of physically shipped packages that have caught dust in an electronics store somewhere deep in the woods, what would be the point? Sorry, but this doesn't make any sense whatsoever. It's even approaching a certain level of ridiculousness considering that e.g. PremierePro in CS5.5 supports many more graphics cards for the Mercury Playback Engine than it ever did in CS5 and the Warp Stabilizer in After Effects CS5.5 doesn't exist in CS5. Similar observations can no doubt be made for InDesign, Dreamweaver, Flash Catalyst etc. For the rest it doesn't matter - Photoshop, Illustrator and a few other tools are just the same as in CS5 and haven't ben upgraded.

  • Can I run adobe master collection in a windows partition on a basic mbp 13" with only the intel chipset?

    can I run adobe master collection in a windows partition on a basic mbp 13" with only the intel chipset?
    I want to install 16 gb ram but I don't think I can change the lack of video card. I wanted this basic machine because it has fairly long battery life. I don't need or want retina at this time. My model is the mid 2012 model. I am running the adobe collection for mac, I want to run the windows versions. Is it possible? What is the most ram I could access using something like fusion 5, assuming I could get fusion 5 to work? would it refuse to run because of the intel chipset and lack of video card?
    If I'm wrong and there is a way to add a video card to this model, could some version of fusion and windows 7 access more than 2 gb operating ram?
    What  cost would I be incurring, and would it be cheaper to buy a windows laptop with more ram than I could access via a virtual machine?
    I want to work on a client's work in the windows versions of the creative suite, with occasional usage of after effects for windows, and to use some web plug-ins only available in windows versions, and to try some windows-only video and audio software.
    thanks for any suggestions. While many people have told me I can run everything on my macbook, I am concerned about what I think is a limited amount of ram that can be accessed over the virtual machine partition softwares, and I don't know if what I want to attempt is actually possible.
    My mbp os is 10.8.2 on a 2.5 GHz intel core i5 4 gb 1600MHz DDR3 with 500 hard drive. the basic 13" mid 2012 machine.
    I'm hoping to install 16 G of opertating ram to allow more adobe programs to run concurrently- just when I am working on the mac side.
    also, off track but, for years I have wanted a small  machine that is more easily portable than my 15" machines. I have only had this used machine for a few weeks, but already I have been very satisfied and used it for presentations at clients. I don't want an air because I really want the dvd burner and player. No matter what apple says about wireless, there are decades of legacy work stored on optical discs all over the world, and I don't want to be unable to open something at a client's office because I don't have a dvd drive. Additionally, I have very large files I want to transfer via ethernet or firewire so that the transfer will take less time and be more secure than wifi. I resist apple's trend to make every machine a disposable toy that is viable only a year or so. I have read reviews that label the mbp it a poor value compared to the air. If all you need to do is text and communicate via wifi, many devices will sufice, and an air is certainly the most elegant. But what about the cost of large ssd's and protecting the drive against damage from shock? I want to be able to move this thing around and the small size is much safer inside my padded bag when I sit in narrow airplane seats, crowded trains and other congested spaces. I am much more likely to be able to borrow a large screen in a client's office ( with the use of one of the three adapters I had to buy) than to be able to borrow a dvd drive that has drivers for mac os 10.8.2. I suspect this may be the last generation of machines that have optical drives and ethernet, and that was why I purchased it so that I could continue to do work into the next few years. I am impressed by the retina display, but I need long battery life. And as beautiful as the retina display is, it is even more of a problem when trying to cross platform with the windows world. I wish I could infuence apple to do a trial product flow for a machine designed to work with 80% of the business world that uses windows. How spectacular that would be. With all their expertise and adept hardware design, to create a machine that cross platforms better than a windows machine itself works? Now that would be an accomplishment.  Instead of 8 or 9 percent of the total computer sales, why not aim for a higher percentage? Smart devices will keep moving toward portable computers in power, anyway.

    Fusion should work on your machine and if you put 16 GB of RAM in (see http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Apple_MacBook_MacBook_Pro/Upgrade/DDR3_160 0MHz_SDRAM), Fusion can access a good portion of that. Also, in a Virtual Machine, the guest OS is presented with Fusion's video card emulation, not what's in hardware on your Mac. Of course, finding Windows 7 now that Win 8 has been released could take some doing and the Win 8 Pro upgrade price is supposed to jump to $200 the end of the month. Add that to the price of Fusion and the extra RAM and you're beginning to get into the realm of low end real PC's.
    As to cross platform, I assume you're aware of BootCamp (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1461).

    i cant install adobe master collection cs5 or cs6 in maverick 10.9.4, i cant install, the instalation stop in 4% in adobehelp ... any idea?

    I can't get into the installation menu. The third CD does work correctly, i'm not sure about the second CD. Is it possible that the CD is broken? Like maybe there is one file missing or something I don't know.
