CS3 Web Premium Upgrade question

While in school a while back, I purchased the educational
version of Macromedia Studio MX 2004. Does the educational version
qualify me for upgrade pricing on CS3 Web Premium?
Thanks,
Jim

Were it still a Macromedia product, it would not. But, I
believe that
Adobe's policy is different. Your most unequivocal answer
would come from
Adobe, I think. Contact Customer Service and ask them....

CS4 Web Premium Upgrade Price Seems Unfair

We own CS2, Macromedia Studio 8 and we have the CS3 Web Premium. The upgrade price to CS4 Web Premium is $599. This is the same price for someone upgrading from Studio 8 or CS2 Premium. What about the people who have bought each upgrade (not counting CS3.3) This upgrade price seems way to high. Just my two cents.

Are you complaining that it is too high, or that there should be different tiers of upgrades?
Adobe's policy has always been that you can upgrade from any of the last three versions. It is my understanding that this will be changing soon, and people who have upgraded more recently DO get a lower price. I believe the price to go from CS2 to CS4 will be $799 sometime next year. Since this is a new policy, they are giving people a few months to buy under the old policy.
If anything, this is the fairest thing I've ever seen a corporation do. They are making a policy more fair, while still not hurting the people who didn't know the change was coming.
That said, I do agree $599 is a bit steep for someone who just upgraded recently, especially for the Web package. The upgrade to CS3 Production Premium was $799, where the CS4 upgrade is $599...that seems fair to me (though they dropped Ultra from the package.) However, the CS3 Web Premium upgrade was $599 (or was it $499?) It does seem out of wack price-wise. The fact that Design Premium now includes Fireworks makes the Web Premium price even less attractive.
In your particular situation, it sounds to me like you have FULL licenses for CS2 AND Studio 8, and then an upgrade to CS3 Web. Basically, you have at least one license you aren't using (unless you're using it on another computer.) My advice would be to sell your CS2 or Studio 8 license, whichever is worth more these days. When I upgraded to CS3 Web Premium, I owned both Studio MX 2004 AND CS2 Premium licenses. I sold the CS2 license, and it almost paid for my Studio MX to CS3 Web upgrade.

Want to upgrade to PS CS5 from CS3 Web Premium

I want to upgrade from Photoshop CS3 that was part of CS3 Web Premium Suite to PhotoShop CS5 Extended. I do not want to upgrade the entire suite. Is this possible? Jack Davis said I should be able to. I just want to make sure. The Adobe website says I cannot. I think that is a marketing ploy... Can someone please help?

I ended up reinstalling CS5 and that solved the problem with one exception. It is now the default external editor and I have the option to export to PS as a smart object - However, I do not have the options to export to PS in layers or export to PS as Photomerge or Export to PS as HDR. I did have these options with CS3.

Adobe CS3 Web Premium no longer works after upgrade to OS X Lion

After upgrading my OS to Lion, Fireworks from Adobe CS3 Web Premium has been rendered useless. The color picker no longer works at all, and the program generally crashes within 30-60 seconds of being opened.
Help!

Jill,
I've been banging my head against a wall on this one, trying to figure out what to do.
The 2 solutions I have are: (1) reformat drive and re-install SL or (2) upgrade to CS5.5. Reverting back to SL is going to be a time consuming task considering format, itunes backup, data backup and reinstall everything and I'm not ready to upgrade CS 3 to 5.5 for around a $1000....
I needed to get back up and running quickly, so I purchasd a couple colorpickers from the app store for a couple dollars. This at least gets me back up and running again. They work well. Not a perfect solution but considering the alternatives, the best fix I have right now.
For everyone else that hasn't upgraded to Lion, yet. Carefully consider the software compatibility before upgrading to Lion. If you do media, web or application development, it may break your color pickers or more... check Adobe's or your software developer's site for Lion compatibility for the software you use.

CS3 Web Premium to CS4 Web Premium student upgrade

Hello,
I recently (yesterday) upgraded from CS3 web premium to CS4 web premium. I deactivated and uninstalled the CS3 first. I am now trying to open my files from the server in Dreamweaver with no luck.
What is happening is,it goes through the download process and when done all it shows is a blank HTML page with nothing on it. It is a little frustrating to say the least. Have I done something wrong? I would have thought the upgrade would be seamless.
Thanks for any and all help.

Try using a free FTP program like FileZilla ( http://filezilla-project.org/ ) and see if you can get the files from your server that way. Then once on your hard drive create the site using Dreamweaver and begin editing that way. If the files download from an external client with nothing in them you may have to restore a back up of your site.

My CS3 Web Premium serial number is not recognized to upgrade to Creative Cloud

I was interested in purchasing Creative Cloud and entered my CS3 Web Premium serial number to see if I qualify but it claims that I do not. If CS3 products qualify, why does mine not qualify?

In which case, contact Adobe directly and ask them

CS3 Web Premium Suite compatible with Vista 64 bit?

Greeting folks. I realize this is not a Photoshop specific question, but does anyone use CS3 Web Premium Suite on Vista 64? If so, do you have any problems with any of the programs?
I'm contemplating upgrading from Vista 32 to Vista 64.
Thanks!

I just got the Adobe Master Collection CS3 to run on a Dell Workstation (quad core processor, 2GB RAM) with Vista 64 Business. Photoshop is deathly slow, to the point of being unusable. It takes up to 2 minutes just to load the programme. Clicking menu items or drop-down buttons produces no response for about 5 secs. I created a blank layer and tried to draw a simply brush stroke across it - again, a 5 sec delay before the stroke appeared. This makes it impossible to do any useful work. Other parts of the package are better (e.g. Dreamweaver, Illustrator) but Bridge is slow and I have a subjective impression that some of my none Adobe programme are now running more slowly. I did look at CPU and memory utilization - never got about 60% and was mostly around 10%.
When I run the Photoshop CS3 trial on an AMD duo core computer with only 1GB RAM (which is running XP Pro), I get a much snappier response. Makes me suspect a Vista issue.
Since others appear to be having much better success, I would be very interested in any tips, etc. which I might try.
Thanks.

Web Premium Upgrade CS4 to CS5 - no need to re-install Acrobat Pro?

Just received Web Premium Upgrade package today. Currently have CS3 Web Standard. and CS4 Web Premium installed so will be removing CS3 Standard before attempting CS5 upgrade. My question concerns Acrobat Pro 9, perhaps obviously given the forum I'm posting in! :-) Would I be correct in assuming that given I have an up-to-date version of Acrobat Pro 9 installed as part of CS4 I can ignore the CS5 Acrobat installation? That's based on an associated assumption that the upgrade package is intended to also cover upgrades from CS4 Standard and other suites that did not include Acrobat Pro.

Apologies; answered my own question! From the CS5 installation instructions (online, not provided with installation package) "If you already have Acrobat 9 Pro installed, either as part of a suite or as a standalone application, you do not need to reinstall it." From http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/825/cpsid_82596.html

Cannot find CS3 Web Premium disks - do I have to go illegal ?

Hi Folks
I walked into B&H NY, bought an upgrade to CS3 Web Premium (from CS2 suite), and took it back home. Before insatlling it I emailed myself the license keys.
Now, several new computers and several old computer deactivations and crashes later, I needed to reinstall, could not find the original disks so downloaded PS from the Adobe site.
Photoshop CS3 won't recognize my CS3 Web Premium serial !
Adobe support says I need to reinstall the whole suite. There is no download for Web Premium.
I'm seriously angry. I am thinking of dumping the whole activation crap and downloading a pirate version, or even regressing to a pirate version of CS1.
I don't feel comfortable stealing, but although Adobe has confirmed that my serial number is valid they cannot offer me a way to get what I paid for working again.
Edmund

Edmund,
On behalf of Adobe ...
(1) I assume that what you are telling us is that you lost the original disk for your upgrade copy of CS3 Web Premium but you do have the serial number (
not keys).
(2) You also didn't bother to register the CS3 product.
(3) Please call
Adobe Customer Support (not
Adobe Technical Support!) and advise them of the situation of your lost disks. You may be asked to provide some proof of purchase, such as a receipt from B&H showing the item in question. (Note that B&H is closed this week for Passover, but should be open again on Monday!) As Bob Levine indicated, Customer Support should be able to supply you with replacement media for a shipping and handling fee. If you have any problems with the representative you are speaking with, please ask to speak with a Customer Support supervisor and make sure they give you a "case number." If you still have problems, please contact me off-forum directly and I'll see what I can do to assist from Adobe San Jose.
(4) For better or worse, the individual Adobe products have different installers and serial numbers than the suites. That's why you cannot install a downloaded trial copy of Photoshop 10 using a CS3 serial number.
(5) It will certainly not help your case if you start threatening to use pirated software when discussing your problem with Adobe Customer Support. The fact is that YOU lost your disks; Adobe did not cause that problem. But Adobe can make replacement disks available to you if you cooperate. In the future, please register your product ASAP upon initial product installation. You don't have to mail anything in; the product can self register via the internet - all you need to do is provide minimal contact information. One of the main reasons for the registration process is to assist customers when disks are lost, upgrades are required, etc.

Unable to resolve installation error for Adobe CS3 Web Premium despite referring to given solution

Hi,
I own a copy of Adobe CS3 Web Premium from a few years ago that was bundled with my Fujitsu Lifebook T5010 on Windows Vista. I wish to install the CS3 Web Premium onto my Acer Aspire X3990 desktop that is running on Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 on 64-bit operating system type. However, the installer prompts the following error: "This software cannot be installed because JScript is not properly registered. Please repair JScript and then restart the installer".
Checking with Adobe website, I came across the following support page: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/error-2739-installer-closes-cs3.html
whereby it says the solution is to manually register the jscript.dll file. I followed the procedure exactly for that of 64-bit system, but then the following new error pops up when I enter in "regsvr32 jscript.dll" onto Administrator: Command Prompt on C:\Windows\SysWow64 : "The module "jscript.dll" was loaded but the call to DllRegisterServer failed with error code 0x80004005. For more information about this problem, search online using the error code as a search term."
One thing I note is that on the Adobe web link, the operating system mentioned is Vista, while I am currently running Windows 7.
Please help, as the few solutions I found on Google search are mostly repeated calls to ensure that the command prompt is run at Administrator level, which I already am doing so. I need something more than telling me what I had already done but not resolved.
I am asking the same question in parallel to the Microsoft Community page as well, as I do not know where exactly the issue lies with. I hope both sides can give a clear resolution.
I really need help in enabling me to use Adobe CS3 again, as my Fujitsu laptop that ran it without problems had since died off already.

CS3 Web Premium Setup.app crashing on launch

Trying to install CS3 Web Premium on a Mac intel w 10.5.2 and I cannot get the installer to launch. It did not auto run as the instructions indicated and there was no Setup MacOS file that I could find on the dvd, but I did find Setup.app. Launching this fails almost instantly with an error:
[0x0-0x16016].Setup[241]: /System/Library/Frameworks/Carbon.framework/Versions/A/Support/LaunchCFMApp[241] Launch failed with error code -2857 (cfragCFragRsrcErr) for application /Volumes/Adobe CS3 Web Premium/Adobe Creative Suite 3 Web Premium/Setup.app/Contents/MacOS/Setup
The installer does not leave a log file in either Library or that is accessible via the Console. I've tried installing from a different admin account and also as root. Same result in both cases. I also attempted to run the actual Setup executable that is within the Setup.app bundle via Terminal and was told "cannot execute binary file".
Thinking i might have had some previous adobe junk, i've also run the adobe clean up script at level 4. No effect on the crashing installer.
Any ideas?

I am installing a brand new MacPro with OS X 10.5.2. It is a machine upgrade for the user so all of her previous user files were also transferred during the setup. Two days ago we got our new CS3 site license upgrade discs and I was using it to install a fresh copy of CS3 Standard. We had a 5 user license disc that we were using to test before deploying CS3 to the users so we know that we can install from that disc, unfortunately it is a CS3 Premium disc and a different serial number.
Also of note, once the setup.app crashes (actually it never really launches) other apps, like Safari also will no longer launch. I have repaired disk permissions and the next thing I will try is installing as another user, but it looks like you guys have already tried that.
Any help would be wonderful, this user returns from vacation on Monday!
Thanks,
Laura

CS3 Web Premium and Vista 64

I see on Adobe's website that CS3 Web Premium is certified
for Vista 32. Has anyone installed it on Vista 64 and if so, does
it work? After spending 3 weeks getting Studio 8 to work properly
on Vista 64 (thanks to all in the forum for your help there), I
don't want to upgrade until I know for sure its going to work.
Cheers
Chuck

Troubles installing cs3 Web Premium

I just got a new computer (MacBook Pro) running OS 10.6.7. I deactived my Adobe software on my old computer (an older white MacBook which is also running OS 10.6.7), downloaded CS3 Web Premium from the Adobe on-line store (where I originally purchased it) to my new computer and double clicked the Setup icon. I very briefly see a window saying "Initializing Adobe Setup..", then an installer alert window pops up saying "Setup has encountered an error and cannot continue. Contact Adobe Customer Support for assistance.
Customer Support transferred me to Installation support, which told me they no longer support CS3 installation questions.
What do I need to do to get my CS3 software running on my new computer?
Thanks,
Phil DiPastena

Hi Phil,
I'm sorry you're having problems installing CS3. Your best bet would be to reprost this question over on the Mac Creative Suite forums.
Thanks,
Chris

Problems reinstalling CS3 Web Premium

I have been having problems with Dreamweaver CS3, it has been freezing on me when I go to save something. Anyway I thought if I reinstall Dreamweaver, the problem would go away. When I go to reinstall Dreamweaver, it says to insert the Adobe Creative Suite 3 Web Premium DVD, when I already inserted that. Why is it saying that and how can I go pass that message? I am going to purchase CS4 web premium upgrade, but that will not be for a while.

Thanks for a prompt reply Bob...
I haven't got that far - when I try to install CS3 on my iMac the installation aborts and I'm getting a message that's saying I've installed the software too many times and to get in touch with Adobe...
I currently have the CS3 suite on my MacBook only and cannot deactivate it due to not having my correct administrator name/PW...
(I also have older versions of Dreamweaver and Fireworks on another older G5 Mac that is on my network - but I don't think that is contributing to the problem)

Error 1335: file corrupted Media.cab (CS3 Web Premium)

ING
Hello,
I have Adobe Creative Suite 3 Web Premium and am having trouble reinstalling the applications.
I had to remove them from my switch and when I reinstall the error 1335 appears corrupted file, in case Media.cab, I saw my media and is a risk with it, but do not know whether this risk is due. I wonder if someone had the same problem, it failed to respond or if you can put the Media.cab of CS3 Web Premium for me to download.
Have I contacted the media in Brazil, but the clerk informed me that they do not give more support for this product and that I should contact the forum to try to solve.
(Note: Sorry my English, translated on the Web)

Olá,
Tenho o Adobe Creative Suite 3 Web Premium e estou tendo problemas em reinstalar os aplicativos.
Tive que remover eles do meu comutador e quando fui reinstalar aparece o Erro 1335 de arquivo corrompido, no caso Media.cab, estive vendo minha mídia e está com um risco nela, porém não sei se é decorrente deste risco. Gostaria de saber se alguém teve o mesmo problema, se conseguiu responder ou se consegue colocar o Media.cab do CS3 Web Premium para eu baixar.
Já entrei em contato com o suporte no Brasil, porém a atendente me informou que não dão mais suporte a este produto e que eu deveria entrar em contato pelo fórum para tentar resolver.
