Photoshop CS5 extendend - upgrade to CS6 (standard)

Dear Sirs,
I have Photoshop CS5 Extended (PHXS, CS5, WIN, RET, EUW, 001, DV) Serial no. [removed].
I want to UPGRADE to CS6 (standard).
I understand you offer this upgrade at various levels. Which version shall I buy?

There are more than enough posts about Adobe's current lack of adequate customer support for that to need comment.
However...
Adobe has no right to edit my question!
Adobe has no right to remove my serial no., as I have bought it (in connection with the CS5).
Though these are user to user forums, the servers they run on are owned and operated by Adobe. They can edit, delete, or do whatever else they want to posts here. Read the TOS to see what you really agreed to by posting here.
Finally, as Curt pointed out; my admonition not to post personal information here was for YOUR benefit, not that of Adobe. As was stated, if a bunch of people suddenly start using your serial number, Adobe will blacklist it as compromised and, paid for or not, your software WILL NOT RUN. Then you will have to try and contact Adobe directly -- not something I would wish on my worst enemy.
But if you want to publicly broadcast your serial number, go right ahead. While you're at it, add any and all e-mail addresses you may have, so the spammers can harvest them, and add all your personal data for the identity theives while you're at it. We wouldn't want to leave them out, after all.

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.

My WLan card and my Bluetooth have both the same MAC address?

Hello dear Arch Forumers.
I've recently purchased a brand new Sony VAIO SVF 14415. I installed Arch in Legacy BIOS mode (I didn't want to deal with the UEFI stuff and I don't use windows anyway, so I erased the complete disk and started from scratch) successfully without any glitches except for the wifi card (broadcom device) and the bluetooth device. For the wireless connection I installed the Broadcom-wl driver from AUR and worked fine, then I went after the bluetooth integration (I'm using KDE). I installed every package in the official repositories to make it work, I also enabled the systemd service for bluetooth management but no luck to get it to work...
Then I tried with CLI tools to see if I could diagnose the problem and I noticed that both my bluetooth and wireless device have the same MAC address (see the image below).
Even though I found something I still don't have a clue about how to proceed to make the bluetooth work. Can someone help me?
Kind Regards!
EDIT: I'm sorry, I just realized the last character is different in both mac addresses but the bluetooth still doesn't work.

If the battery has been completely depleted on the Nano (not really a good idea) then it is going to take 15 to 30 minutes before your computer can see it. Same thing will happen with an iPod Touch.

Can't upgrade to CS6 Standard from CS5.5 Premium - Error: Failed CopyDirectory

I just downloaded CS6 Design Standard as an upgrade from CS5.5 Design Premium. The CS5.5 DP software was on another machine with a hard drive that crashed two weeks ago and is unrecoverable. I have all of the necessary serial numbers.
Please help! I need my CS6 installed and ready for my job at an ad agency!
(Here is the ERROR message I receive when I try to install...after entering the serial numbers for both the new CS6 and the old CS5.5 packages)

Book recommendations - CS3 user upgraded to CS6.

I have been using InDesign for 13 years but always for print. I now have CS6 and am keen to learn its features for eBook production. Can anyone recommend a book that is aimed at this type of user - I can't be the only one who is needing to learn this whole new way of thinking. Thanks.

I'd start by subscribing to Lynda.com and watching some of Anne Marie Concepcions fabulous titles there. This link will get you a free one week trial: http://bit.ly/RS0GXs

Problems After Win 8.1 Upgrade - Two Additional Partitions Both With Same Volume Serial Number?

An update from Win 8 Pro to Win 8.1 Pro has occurred automatically on one of my machines.
Prior to the upgrade (from memory) the machine had an OEM Partition (40MB), EFI System Partition (500MB), Recovery Partition (8.17GB) and OS (C:) partition. Only the latter was visible in Computer.
After the 8.1 upgrade there are two additional partitions, Recovery (500MB) and Recovery (450MB). All the partitions are now displayed in This PC as drives except the 40MB OEM Partition.
When viewed in This PC both the two new drives (that appear to equate to the new partitions) show as 499MB each with the same amount of free space. In Disk Management the first new partition is shown as 500MB and the second as 450MB.
I have SugarSync installed on this machine and since the upgrade it is displaying an error telling me it won't work because the two new drives have the same Volume Serial Numbers.
Clearly something has gone wrong with the upgrade:
Is there any way to resolve the Volume Serial Number conflict?
Is there any way to stop all these drives appearing in This PC?
Do I need the two new partitions and if not how can I get rid of them?

There is a fourth path to upgrading to Windows 8.1 provided by Microsoft. Microsoft have been displaying automated reminders from time to time on Windows 8 computers that Windows 8.1 update is available to download - from these reminders it is possible to
choose either Install or Not Now. Just recently these reminders have changed, they are instead notifying the user that the Windows 8.1 Update will be installed automatically or the user has options to postpone the installation for 1hr, 2hrs, etc. The
user of this computer tells me she went away from the machine and Windows 8.1 update installed automatically from one of these prompts.
I have seen these installation prompts on several of my customer's computers and they are not malware related (I deal with malware removal every day and would recognise this). However, I have scanned this computer with Bit Defender and MalwareBytes and there
are no infections present.
The only difference between this Windows 8.1 Update and the others that I have carried out is that it wasn't controlled and therefore I wasn't able to disable the security software (Bit Defender Internet Security 2015). This may be the cause of the problem.
I've uploaded the two screenshots you asked for - the two new drives are W: and Z: and SugarSync is reporting that they have the same Volume Serial Numbers. Note: X: and Y: were not visible prior to the upgrade.
There are two Windows Update logs at C:\Windows\ so I will upload both.

Photoshop CS6 for both windows and mac?

I have Photoshop CS6 for windows on an upgrade disk. Now considering a mac air notebook to replace my old pc laptop as second machine. Could I use the program on this on my existing licence? Would I be able to download the program? Also, what's the minimum system spec advisable for smooth running on a mac? Hoping a helpful Adobe person can answer these questions easily. Thanks

Could I use the program on this on my existing licence?
No. And that takes care of your otehr questions - it's a moot point. Standalone permanent licenses are platform specific and there's no way around that. Only Creative Cloud allows cross-platform usage as do certain types of volume licenses, none of which is relevant to your situation.

How do I transfer a CS6 Standard license from one Mac to another?

How can a transfer a CS6 license from one system to another?

You simply install properly after you have deactivated on the old system.

You're getting the message because you're exceeding the available current, probably as a result of bus-powered drives. The power sources for hubs are rather small. Try using drives with their own power supplies.

Upgrade Premiere Pro CS5.5 on PC to CS6 on MAC? Use both at same time?

Can I upgrade from my Premiere Pro CS5.5 on my PC Laptop to CS6 on my new MAC machine? If so, will I still be able to use my CS5.5 on my PC at the same time as using CS6 on my MAC?
I'd be grateful for your advice and, if this is possible, how to proceed.
Many thanks,
Andrew Kent

The original poster was not on the Creative Cloud subscription.
What a mess.
I think what Baber is saying is Adobe considers an "Upgrade" purchase from a prior license as an entirely new separate license. That allows you to run the old version license on a different platform from the new "Upgrade" license.
So if you need to run both platforms (Windows and Mac) your options are:
Cloud subscription
Purchase a whole new second license to be able to run the current version on both platforms (what we did)
Wait for an point version update and upgrade going to the other platform. That allows you to run on both Windows and Mac, but one version back on one of the platforms but at a greatly reduced price until the next point upgrade.
Seems pretty convoluted and obtuse. But ..."It is what it is."

Can I upgrade from CS3 Design Premium to CS6 Design Standard?

I'm looking to upgrade my CS3 (and may need to as I'm upgrading my Mac OS X and not sure about compatibilty)... of course I know I can upgrade like for like, i.e. go from CS3 Design Premium to CS6 Design and Web Premium but I don't really need Dreamweaver and Flash so just wondering if I can upgrade to CS6 Design Standard?
Also, as I'm still relatively new to this arena and have never upgraded before... how does it work? Do I need to keep my CS3 software (i.e. disks) as well as the new software/disks? i.e. if for whatever reason I may need to re-install down the line...or can I get rid of the CS3 once I get the CS6?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, you can do that. But you only have a few more weeks. You may want to look into Creative Cloud instead. You'll need the CS3 serial number to upgrade to CS6 but the CS3 apps do not necessarily need to be installed.

Should i upgrade from photoshop cs3 extended to photoshop cs6 non extended

hi im just wondering should i upgrade from photoshop cs3 extended to photoshop cs6 NON extended...... would i loose options from my extended version?
also i dont use photoshop cs3 that much, does anyone think its worth me upgrading?
thanks
lee

Good day!
I think I read that with 2013 the upgrade path would be shortened, so you are probably not eligible for upgrading anymore.
Apart from that the benefit of purchasing the current version of Photoshop naturally depends on what you are doing with Photoshop (both in terms of which features you use and how much you use the application overall).
Smart Objects have been improved quite a bit, Puppet Warp is an interesting feature, Configurator allows for the easy creation of custom Panels that can combine Tools, Commands, Actions etc., …
But to judge the programm yourself you could just install the trial – mind you, the trial is Photoshop Extended, so you may want to consult the Reference on which features you would not get with Potoshop Standard.
You might also want to look into Cloud Licensing – or at least »Adobe« wants you to …
