Creative Cloud DW vs. CS 6 version?

Does the Creatver Cloud version of Dream Weaver run the same as CS 6 or CS 5.5?  I am taking an online course and they use version 5.5 and they claim it's the same flow as CS 6.  I use the Cloud yet many of the pull down menus are different than the tutorial to the point that I can't do the lesson. They claim the Cloud has "minor differences than CS 6 and therefore make it challenging to follow the videos".  Huh?

Some things have been moved in the menus as some features have been added and some taken out.  You will not find any references to Spry, ASP or most other languages.  Dreamweaver has been stripped down to HTML, PHP, CSS, SCSS, SASS, JS, and (I think) ColdFusion.  You also lose the PHP Database Bindings pane and gain a "CSS Designer" tool.  I'm told that web typography is supposed to work as well, but it seems that it misses the mark somewhere along the line as it can't do Typekit, Adobe's own web typography service.  If you are going verbatim based on lessons, I would just stick with 5.5 or 6.  Both were excellent releases in comparison.

    If you paid for a subscription you don't need the trial. Log in with the Adobe ID associated with your subscription to activate the program.

  • Creative Cloud - restricting use of older versions and forcing use of latest versions - NO THANKS!

    I am a long-time customer of Adobe Products.  I have a unique roll as a Graphics management position, while also functioning as our company's IT administrator.  At home, for messing around, sure, creative cloud could be usable,  however, in my fairly demanding work environment, we encounter issues like OSX compatibility, occasionally needing to work from a PC, opening files from 2005, and relying on a specific workflows our business has built on foundations like Distiller PDF workflows etc.  When you force upgrades to newer versions, you dissuade us from being interested in the Creative Cloud platform.  It's really a shame, because small businesses like ours would benefit a lot from a neccesary "subscription"  so the newest adobe products are always available, where otherwise, convincing our company owner that a fairly pricey upgrade is neccesary because of a given set of features.  If the features aren't something the owner sees as a neccesity, there is really no reason for us to upgrade, so we drag things out.  For example, we are still on CS3 right now, and we will be making the jump to CS6 out of neccesity (CS3 will not allow us to edit old pagemaker files that have suddenly become our responsibility without crashing, where the CS6 trial handled it wonderfully).
    The creative cloud is a nice thought that would overcome a lot of 'upgrade' obsticles in the long-term for those of us in the small-business venture, but the version restrictions are too harsh.  In the accounting world there is a general rule that you can expunge data older than 7 years old, but if you get rid of that data before those 7 years are up you often find yourself in trouble.  Software is often the same way when you work with such a wide-array of tools as the adobe creative suite provides.  We essentially end up with what equates to a giant database of images, videos, and other files of misc origin and formats that we need a way to manage.  If we encounter problems (Much like I did recently where CS3 would not open the pagemaker files) and know we can count on another version of that same software (CS6, in this case) to open those same files, then why would you ever want to take those options away from a customer?  We will be paying the same fee regardless of what old versions we use, and while in the scenerio I give, the newer version of the software is the resolution to the problem, there is an equal liklihood of encountering a scenerio where the newer software wont allow me to open a file, but the older version will.
    I just don't understand, what's the harm?  You don't need to "support" those old versions, but they should ALWAYS be available for download and use on systems that can use them, ESPECIALLY in the style of environment you are offering where the old versions won't appeal to everyone, so it won't waste bandwidth or require a tremendous ammount of storage & serving on your part.
    What gives adobe?  I want Creative Cloud to succeed as much as you!  But I need it to work for me!

    Hi Fujilives,
    I copied this from the Creative Cloud FAQ
    Q:I am a Creative Cloud member using the CS6 applications included in my membership. Will I lose access to CS6 when CS7 becomes available in Creative Cloud? A: No, if you have downloaded and installed the CS6 versions of the applications, you will continue to have access to them without interruption as long as your membership remains active. When the CS7 versions become available, you will have up to a year to download and install them and they will run on your machine along with CS6 versions.
    So we are planning to give users access to and the ability to use the versions they started with even after new versions come out (you don't have to upgrade) but it wasn't possible to include access to older versions with the launch of this product (that I'm aware of). But I understand the need for some users to have access to older verisons based on your explanation. I'll pass along your feedback.

  • Creative Cloud is suddenely a trial version?

    Really? What is Adobe doing?
    Seems as tho' others are experiencing the same issue. MAC and PC....
    [groan]
    First they launch updates that disable 3D in Ps CS6 EXT and now I'm getting these alerts on other CC apps as well (Ai and Id) to register and buy? I don't have a trial version.
    I have been paying FULL price for a registered Creative Cloud subscription as listed in "My subscriptions & services".
    Merry Christmas, Adobe.

    There has been much discussion on the full-paid PS reverting to trial, both for perpetual licenses, and the Creative Cloud.
    Here are some of the threads:

  • Creative Cloud Photoshop show as trial version on start up

    I purchased Creative Cloud membership the other day and everything went fine with the instalation, but now when I start Photoshop it shows a screen saying that I have 29 days left on the trail version. Is this normal, if not, what can I do to correct it.

    Try logging with Adobe ID at the launch and it should work fine for you....
    Thanks

  • When creative cloud updated it installed another version of each adobe program, I have duplicity of each program

    Hello,
    When CC updated to the 2014 version lately, I found out that I have duplicate version of each adobe program, the previous ones I had and another version with 2014 added to it.
    Can I remove the previous versions? I believe it takes space of my hard drive on Mac...Is it safe to remove the previous versions?
    Thanks

    Ilbra you are welcome to remove the previous version if you no longer have a need for it to be installed.  You can find more details on how to uninstall the software at Install and update apps - https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html.

  • How can I downgrade my full creative cloud subscription to the photographer version

    Just heard that there's going to be a cc version for photographers available starting 9/16 for only $9.99.  How can I downgrade from my full sub which costs 49.99 per month?

    Hi jason epstein,
    Customers who have already joined a Creative Cloud Single App membership for Photoshop at the £7.14/month level (or corresponding local pricing matching the pricing provided in the question above) will be automatically transitioned to this new program when it ships in a few weeks, with the additional benefits and lower ongoing price. All other Creative Cloud members who meet the qualification requirements may contact Adobe Customer Service once the new offer is shipping in a few weeks, to discuss transitioning their membership to this new offer.
    Please refer the kb: http://www.adobe.com/uk/products/creativecloud/faq.html for more information.

  • Creative Cloud Save to old CS version

    Can I save down from creative cloud to CS6, CS5 and so on? This is vital to making the switch as our printers are on different version of CS.

    triadmac12
    I dont think that is quite right, you can send any file to a user who has the older version, two things to be kept in mind while doing this:
    It should be saved in the Old Version Compatible Format
    That user should have the old version installed, If he/she has CS6 nothing like it.
    Cheers

  • Creative Cloud says I have multiple versions installed

    My list of apps shows CC and CC (2014) versions of all my apps installed. I only see the current versions when I search my HD. (The CC 2014 ones.)
    Should I uninstall the "old" versions? Will this screw up my system. Not interesting in creating havoc. Just wanted to clean up my list.
    Thanks for any help.

    Adobe still versions the CC apps similarly to when they were CS apps. About once a year they will update all of the creative apps to a new version. CC 2014 is essentially CC2. There is no reason that you should need both versions, but I would make sure you preferences for each app have transferred over before uninstalling.
    If the apps are not showing up on your hard drive though, it could just be a glitch with the CC desktop app. In which case you shouldn't run into any issues if you were to click on the gear next to the "Up to date" text in the list and click "Uninstall".
    Hope that helps.

  • Creative Cloud gives me the PowerPC version of Encore CS6.  How to get Intel?

    When I install Encore CS6 through CC for OSX, I only get the PowerPC version, which I can't run.  How to install the Intel version?

    Petebooks I would recommend checking your installation logs for any errors received during the installation process. Please see Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6, CC - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html for information on how to locate and interpret the installation log files.  You are welcome to post any specific errors you discover to this discussion thread.
    Also often times these type of errors can occur when the installation files are corrupt.  Have you tried downloading and installing more than once?  Do you have a stable high speed Internet connection?

  • Eligibility for "complete package for creative cloud" for CS3 or later version customer

    I bought my CS5 design premium on Oct 12, 2012.   I responded to the adobe promotion of complete package for CS3 or later version customer.  After the scanning, it showed me that "We don't have any registered products associated with this Adobe ID".  The serial number is posted in my account.  I have no idea why it says I am not qualified.

    If you bought an Education version, it does not qualify for a Cloud discount because you've already used a discount with the Education version
    Otherwise,
    This is an open forum with a mix of program users and Adobe staff, not Adobe support... you need Adobe support
