CS3 Production Premium to Creative Cloud

Can I use my CS3 Production Premium license to get the CS6 Creative Cloud service and if so will I only be able to use CS6 Production Premium or will I be able to use all of the other Adobe products?

Thanks for the quick response arij2010!
I thought that I would try out Creative Cloud but I'm noticing that in the Trial version of download section I don't see AE or Premiere. Do you know if you can use these apps in the Trial version?

Problems installing cs3 production premium: database corrupt

I have a new computer with windows 8.
On my old computer i used Premiere Pro CS3, now i tried Premiere Elements 11. I´m not happy with it so i deinstalled it and tried to install the CS3 production premium on the new Computer.
When I insert the disk and click on install an error appers immediately: "The installation database is corrupt."
I found out that there is an "Creative Suite Cleaner Tool" so i used it, but this doesnt resolve my error.
What do I have to do to install the CS3 Production Premium?

Manually delete the caps.db in the caps folder:

Bob does have a point, though. Installing and using CS3 on Win8 is going to be all sorts of trouble, regardless.

Adobe CS3 Production Premium Installation

(Brand New) HP xw8600 Workstation
Intel Xeon 3.00 GHz Processor
3.25 GB RAM
Windows XP Professional
Service Pack 2
DSL High Speed Internet Connection for Activation
I'm trying to install the Adobe CS3 Production Premium package on my new computer. After I select "Install Adobe CS3 Production Premium" from the initial dialog box, a new box saying "Initializing Adobe Creative Suite 3 Production Premium" appears with a progress bar. When the progress bar completes, nothing happens. The license agreement window fails to launch. I've tried copying the Adobe CS3 folder to my desktop and running setup.exe alone with no success.
When I use the same disks on a different computer, the license agreement launches.
Any help you guys can give me would be appreciated.
Thanks

Errors installing CS3 Production Premium

I am trying to install the new CS3 Production Premium and I am getting this error:
Critical errors were found in this setup. Incompatible payloads already installed. Please see the setup log filefor details.
I am not sure where to look for this setup log file.
Any ideas?

Also i found the following on one of the threads on user forums:
A new message was posted by Meredith Pearcy in
Adobe Creative Suite Windows --
Installing CS3 under Windows XP x64
Latina - while Peter's comment about your permission requirement is correct you have not mentioned a message telling you that you do not have the authority.
I had a similar problem - the following Adobe site helped after I realized that the "c14ac4070fd9614ffe63f4bb533db2c" in \installers\ might have a different string. it did and when I followed the rest of the suggested actions CS3 installed (on my xp Pro x32 os - not on my x64 0s)
Good luck

Solution 3: Start the Setup and then interrupt it.
1. Navigate to the following folder on your hard drive:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Installers\c14ac4070fd9614ffe63f4bb533db2c\resources\common\scripts
Alternatively you can press [WinKey]+R and type:
"%CommonProgramFiles%\Adobe\Installers\c14ac4070fd9614ffe63f4bb533db2c\resources\common\s cripts"
2. Locate a file called "ContainerProxy.js" open it with a text editor (E.G.: Notepad).
3. Go to line 1102 or simply search for:
"jsonObj = _jsonToObject(window.external.SetSessionInitialized(initValue));"
and replace this line with:
"jsonObj = _jsonToObject(SetSessionInitialized(initValue));"
4. Save the file by pressing [Strg]+S or use the menu:
Menu -> File Save.
5. Install the Suite or CS3 application.

Hi ISSUESKFT,
When the Adobe Application Manager starts up, ou can click on your name that appears on the Adobe Application Manager and choose Preferences.
In preferences choose the magyar language and install the softwares.
If you want you can install them in English language and there should not be any issue in activating the products. Creative Cloud subsiption doesnot requires a Serial Number number, just sign-in is required.
Please try it and let me know what happens.

CS3 production premium disc 1 is scratched up

Hello
I was trying to install cs3 production premium on a second pc for my boss. It did the normal full installation and yet only half of the programs were installed. I try again about 3 or 4 time and still programs like Photoshop and Premeire would not install. Bridge, soundbooth and stockphoto were the only ones installed.
I took a look at the discs and found that, to my surprise, disc1 is really scratched up. I thought maybe thats the problem.
So my boss called customer service about getting a replacement. It took a while but he got to someone who sent us a link so we could download disc1.
We download it, unzipped it, and burn a dvd. When I try intsallation again it asked for the original disc1. I took a look at the download and I found it is smaller than the original(1.5G).
What am I doing wrong? Can somebody help me?

Help! CS3 Production Premium major issues in Vista.

I have been having a heck of a time re-installing CS3 Production Premium on my Windows Vista Home Premium computer (32 bit).
Here are the system stats:
Vista Home Premium 32 bit Service Pack 1
Intel 8500 dual core processor (swapped out old 6400)
4 GB DDR 800
(new) 500 GB WD HDD
Nvidia 9600 GTS 512MB Video Card
McAfee Firewall/Viruscan running in place of Windows
DSL Internet
CS3 Was working great on this computer when it had the slower processor and a smaller HD (160 GB) but since that drive's death and subsequent replacement I have not been able to get a fully successful installation of CS3 to work on this computer. I have done multiple re-installs (format/install) of the OS, CS3 (install and uninstall), running the CleanCS3 script as suggested from tech support, ran under a new user, and install/running under a simplified bootup using msconfig.
CS3 installs successfully but when it comes to starting for the first time it takes about 10+ minutes to load the serial number screen, then hangs and is unable to activate. I then wait another 5-10 minutes for the "phone activation" screen to come up which succeeds.
Once activation is successful I can now boot into most of the CS3 programs with these results:
AE - Boots OK/Exits OK
PS - Boots OK/Exits Hang on exit (have to force quit)
IL - Boots OK/Exits Hang on exit (have to force quit)
EN - Hang on Boot while building media layer
FL - Boots OK/Exits OK
PR - Hang on Boot
SB - Boots OK/Exits OK
Please help anyone! I'm at wits end here as to why something that was working so well just days before on the same OS and Antivirus/Firewall system has since ceased to work properly. I am having to borrow the Macintosh from work in order to get work done using their copy of the CS3 suite.
Thanks in advance.

Can I legally sell my CS3 Production Premium Academic?

I recently purchased an academic version of Adobe CS3 Production Premium (full, not an upgrade). It has been nothing but a nightmare and I am extremely unhappy with every aspect of the product. I have deactivated it and was forced to reformat my hard drive (low level)and reinstall Windows (per recommendation of Adobe tech support) because it completely borked my TCP/IP settings somehow and caused massive registry errors, and according to Adobe, leaves markers in the MBR that relate to the Flexnet licensing and Windows operation.
I has been well over 30 days and the vendor I purchased from stated quite clearly that I am no longer entitled to a refund, only a courtesy exchange. Since I will never use CS3 ever again, an exchange is not helpful to me.
I have already registered the software, but now have deactivated and have no trace of Adobe software of any kind on my computer. What are the legal rights concerning selling the software package, in its entirety, through channels such as ebay? If it is legal to do so, what steps must I take to ensure that the purchaser can register and use the program without my registration conflicting?
Thanks in advance,
Mark Terry

>been said, when it's constructed entirely of sweeping >generalisations with
>no reference to facts.
I'm not writing a scientific paper for peer-based review. I'm simply giving my opinion of the software and why I am desperate to sell it to recoup my losses.
I have already written in these forums time and time again with numerous CS3 related problems, as have hundreds of others who had similar problems with crashing software, botched installs, and endless headaches related to Flexnet licensing.
On top of that, in the brief period of time that CS3 did work, I found Photoshop CS3 to be less responsive than CS2 (or even 7!), and the interfaces for After Effects, Encore, and Premiere had horrible "jiggly" UI elements that would shift around with terrible redraw issues.
As an experienced computer user, my first instinct is to examine my system and reserve judgment on the software. However, after diagnostics my system was seen to be behaving normally. It's a 2.66GHz dual core system with 2GB ram and dual 8800 GTS 512 video cards, all the latest stable drivers and performs exceedingly well with all the other software I routinely utilize. Only Adobe CS3 was having this trouble; at first.
After the numerous steps taken to deactivate, reactivate, (so many deactivations and reactivations that Adobe had to "reset" my limit twice) uninstall and reinstall, running the cs3clean utility along with the Microsoft cleanup utility my entire TCP/IP subsystem became corrupted as well as numerous registry entries. Soon my system was taking upwards of eight minutes to boot up and I had no network functionality at all.
The fact that I was knowledgeable enough to rectify the situation doesn't diminish the fact the CS3 cost me not just hours, but weeks of hassle with its problems (causing such systemwide havoc as to render my syste unusable for any work at all). Only after all traces of Adobe software were entirely removed did my system regain normal functionality. This required a ow level format, according to Adobe, since they write licensing information to your MBR, to prevent people from using multiple copies of software in various boot sessions.
It seems evident (to me) that the crux of the problem is the Flexnet licensing system. It is so blunt and clumsy that the slightest problem renders everything useless. I understand Adobe's need to prevent unauthorized use, but if that means punishing the legal and the loyal, and furthermore, when it interferes with the functionality and dependability of the software, then I have to say that I will not use the software.
Whether or not the root of the problem is Flexnet, or Adobe, or my system, the bottom line is that the software simply does not do what it was intended to do.
For now I am relying on other software, which, to varying degrees, gets the job done. Of course, I'm left with a copy of CS3 gathering dust on my shelf. The box is quite heavy though, I coud use it as a doorstop and make beer coasters of the DVDs.

Transferring plug-ins from CS3 to CS6 in Creative Cloud?

How do I transfer plug ins from CS3 to CS 6?

You may want to re-download the plugins from where you bought them and install them fresh for CS6. Or at a minimum check to see if new CS6 versions are available. The underlying architecture changed for plug-ins when CS6 was released. Some developers had to re-write CS6 versions. Some may work, while others may have had to be updated to work with CS6.

Windows 7 and Adobe CS3 Production Premium?

I'm about to upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate, and would like to know if Adobe CS3 Production Premium will install on
Windows 7 64-bit?
Has anyone experience any problems? Is there anything I should be aware of, or extra steps that must be taken during the installation of CS3?
Thanks.

It should but why in the world would you stick with 32 bit video apps if you're moving to Win 7 64 bit? You can upgrade for a pretty reasonable amount and take advantage of the new machine. Put a boatload of RAM in there and you'll be a lot happier.
You can save $40 right now on Amazon with free shipping: http://amzn.to/e7sMSp
Finally, I'm assuming that this is about a new machine. If you truly mean you're upgrading Windows, then make sure you do a CLEAN INSTALL. Do not do an inplace upgrade of Windows.

I need to find a mac media set or files for cs3 production premium

My school bought a site license for production premium cs3 and we think a student stole the mac media set. I contacted customer support and they said that they couldn't help us because the version is to old, they instructed me to ask on this forum. Does anyone have a Mac media set of cs3 production premium they could burn and send me or can someone ftp me the files.

If Adobe Customer Support cannot help you, then there is little that we users can do. It would be illegal to copy any of our Adobe programs to disc and send them out.
You might want to look at ProDesign Tools, and see if they have perhaps a download version of PrPro CS3 in their links (think they are all the "trial versions," and those would not help before CS 5, IIRC, as it can be upgraded from trial to full-paid with the insertion of the S/N).
If you only talked to Technical Support, I would contact Customer Support, which is more geared to sales aspects, than T/S.
Good luck,
Hunt

Adobe cs3 production premium

hey (i know jerry will probably answer this) i was wondering if the adobe cs3 production premium would work on an intel core 2 duo macbook.

Who knows? This isn't the Adobe support site. A gentle suggestion - why don't you wander over to the Adobe website and look up the 'minimum configuration' for the software.

CS3 Production Premium License restrctions

If I get one CS3 Production Premium bundle, can I put After Effects on a different machine than Premiere? (I know I will lose the integration by doing this, but that's not a problem for my situation)

One other question--would it cause difficulties if I install the software on one computer now, then switch it over when I get my new computer in a month or so? (after uninstalling on the old one)
