Cs4 Production Premium Bundle Upgrade to cs6

I purhcased the cs4 Production Premium Bundle several years ago and I just heard recently that cs4 operators only had a short while to upgrade to cs6 before Adobe would make it impossible to upgrade. I have tried to do the upgrade function on the Adobe website but when the pulldown menus appear they only go as far back as cs5. How can I upgrade my entire bundle?

Upgrading CS4 Production Premium to CS6 Production Premium

I have CS4 Production Premium installed and own a license for an upgrade to CS5.5 PP. I just purchased CS6 PP as an upgrade to CS5.5 PP. Can I install CS6 PP without having to install CS5.5 PP?

Yes, the only thing you should need from CS5.5 is the serial number so that you can confirm you meet the upgrade elgibility requirement when you are activating CS6.

When would be good time for me to upgrade from CS4 production premium to Master Collection 5.5/6?

Hello Adobers.
I have CS4 Production Premium but I need Indesign so was thinking of upgrading to Master collection. It seems like Master collection 6 will be out early next year? So I am confused about when would be the best time to upgrade from $$$ saving point of view?
So should I upgrade from....
a) - CS4 Production Premium > to Master collection 5.5 now and then > to Master collection 6 later
or
b) CS4 Production Premium > to Master collection 6 directly
or
c) - CS4 Production Premium > to Master collection 5.5 now and forget about version 6.
I assume option c) would be cheapest. Which will be cheaper out of a) and b) ?
Thank you for advice.

Adobe has made no announcement about CS6. The best time to buy anything is when you need it.
Here's a link to the MC upsell from CS4 PP: http://amzn.to/tvwPq5

Upgrade Price Speculations Production Premium CS5.5 to CS6?

Anyone have an idea of the cost to upgrade from Production Premium CS5.5 to CS6? Right now you can buy the updgrade from CS5 to CS5.5 for $399 + 10% off until the 15th. If you buy the CS5 to CS5.5 upgrade now, you get CS6 for free. Wonder if buying the CS5 to CS5.5 upgrade with a free copy of CS6 for $360 will be cheaper than the CS5.5 to CS6 upgrade. If you are still on CS5, seems like a not brainer. Thoughts?

Yes, maybe...maybe not? Who knows? Well...besides Adobe. And maybe Dave, but he's not interested in discussing anything today. And this is really more appropriate to the Lounge anyway.
BUT - I like your question, and I want to try to give you some advice if I can so here goes.
You're likely to see that the upgrade price for the boxed/download version of Production Premium CS6 isn't much different than what you're seeing now for the intermediate "upgrade now, save later" type offers.
For me, I'm holding on to see what the final pricing and layout is for Creative Cloud. Probably looking at that costing me a bit more over the short run based on my current Adobe purchasing history, but there's supposed to be quite a bit of extra goodness in there so probably worthwhile.
If you have a money back guarantee wherever you're purchasing, you can always buy now, don't open it, then return it in a week or so if pricing is announced and it makes a difference.
If you think you'd have a use for the Creative Cloud, you may want to wait. The preliminary pricing listed by Adobe is $49/month for annual subscribers. Maybe it'll be discounted for 1-year if you already own CS5 or CS5.5 versions of one of the suites. Dunno. Probably more info within the next 7 days.

Upgrade CS4 Production Premium to CS5 Web Premium?

I need to get Adobe Dreamweaver for some web work. Rather than spend $399 for DW, I thought I would spend $599 for the upgrade from CS4 Production Premium to CS5 Web Premium... These suites hace a several programs in common but the thing is, I still need to use Encore and the Media Encoder that only exist in Production Premium. After I install the CS5 Web Premium, will I be able to still use (officially or un-officially) a few of my CS4 Production Premium applications on the same system?
Thanks...

Adobe CS5 Production Premium vs. Adobe CS4 Production Premium

Hello:
I am currently a worker at a production studio and we are thinking about upgrading our system Adobe CS3 Production Premium to either Adobe CS4 Production Premium or Adobe CS5 Production Premium. Our company was at NAB convention in Las Vegas this year and were convinced that Adobe CS5 Production Premium was the way to go. However we come to find (after purchace) that Adobe CS5 Production Premium only runs on (and correct me if Im wrong) 64 bit. Now stuck with a system we cant use on our vista 32 bit I was wondering what are the beneifits between the two and if CS5 is really that great is it worth while to upgrade my computer systems. I am sure I am not the only one to have run into this problem. Any input or advice would be great.
Sincerely,
Really Confused

Look HERE for a quick summary of the new features in After Effects. I can personally attest to the power of the new rotobrush. If you do that kind of work, it will save you a ton of time. Rendering times are considerably faster and being able to RAM preview a 30 or 40 second clip all the way through at full res is finally a reality.
Look HERE for a summary of the new features in Premiere Pro. The major improvement here, in my opinion, is the ability to preview a multi-layer timeline with several effects in real time at full res without rendering.
I can't tell you if it's worth it to you to upgrade or not. All I can say is that I'm really happy with it, so far.

I just downloaded a registered copy CS4 Production Premium. I started the install. Entered the serial number

I just downloaded a registered copy CS4 Production Premium. I started the install. Entered the serial number and Select "I have a SN...". On the next page the installer thinks I am upgrading and wants the "old" application & it's SN. What do I do now?

WkgrayCS4 you will want to enter the serial number for the version you are upgrading from. You can find your registered serial numbers at http://www.adobe.com/. Please see Find your serial number quickly - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html for more details on how to locate your previous version serial number.

Does CS4 Production Premium Come With ScreenCasting Software?

I currently own CS4 Production Premium and I need to record some desktop sessions for a video tutorial.
Before I go out and buy something I figured I should check to make sure it's not a feature of one of the dozens of applications that came with CS4.
I didn't see anything that stood out. But I've overlooked built in features before.
Anyone know?

I apologize for the miscommunication on our part.
Story Plus is not included with Production Premium CS6. What is shown in the video (creating a script, exporting as ASTX and importing it in PPro CS6) can be accomplished using Adobe Story Free. You just need to create an Adobe ID at http://story.adobe.com/ and start writing.

Shipping CS4 Production Premium from US to Australia

Hi All,
I'm new here, so my appologies if there is somewhere else I should be posting this question.
I want to purchase the CS4 Production Premium (full version, not upgrade). However the Australian pricing is really not good. The lowest price I can find here is $2232.
Amazon lists it for $1494, which even when converted to Australian dollars is very reasonable.
My question is, are there any legal or technical issues with shipping this product from the US to Australia? Are there any differences between the versions for the different countries? Would the license still be valid here? I expect I probably can't get a warranty if I do it this way, but I can live with that, to save nearly around $800 on the purchase price.
Thanks,
Eugene

Incidentally I'm not trying to do anything dodgy here. I want everything to be legit, I just can't see the point in paying so much more, just to get the software from a local retailer.

CS4 Production Premium "Content" disk?

My new upgrade version of CS4 Production Premium included 4 Application disks and a Content disk. Does anyone know what that Content disk contains? I was prompted to load the 4 application disks, which I did successfully, and then received a "Thank You/Finish" message. I was never prompted to load the Content disk. Does anyone know what's on it and what will happen if I don't load it? Thanks.

Thanks Bob!

Can I continue to use AA 1.5 if I get CS4 Production Premium?

I bought the CS4 Production Premium to use Premiere and Photoshop. CS4 comes with Soundbooth. I have no desire whatsoever to use SB. I've used AA for years and want to continue. But can I do that? Or will CS4 force me to update AA?
I've been thinking of upgrading, but I have no real need for it. Perhaps this will force me to... another question: if AA 1.5 will not work, (hopefully it does) surely AA 3 will, right?
Thanks.

Fortunately for you, the answer is all good news. All versions of Audition can co-exist with each other, and no version of CS will interfere with them either. It's true that later versions will interface better with CS, but AFAIK there's nothing to stop you working the way you are at present if you install a new CS version. Soundbooth is certainly intended to interface with CS rather more intimately, I believe, but if you are happy with AA1.5, then there's no reason why you shouldn't continue to use it.

Please Help Me -- CS4 Design Premium and CS4 Production Premium on Same Machine

We are a non-profit organization that gets donated software at a great price but you're limited to what's available. We bought the CS4 Design Premium Suite last year (CDs). I called the Adobe sales department to find out if I could run CS4 Design Premium on the same machine. They told me that I could. So I bought CS4 Design Premium as a download. It took a tremendous amount of time just to download the package, and once installed Premiere Pro would not run properly. I called tech support and spent 9+ hours on the phone and no resolution. They had me doing everything -- uninstalled both packages six times. They kept telling me I didn't have enough RAM (and I knew that was wrong because I have been editing using AVID before deciding to go with Adobe -- and I had the CS3 Adobe Premiere Pro, Soundbooth and Encore running on my E drive with no problem before I went ahead and bought CS4 Production Premium).
I took my computer back to the company that built it and they suggested that I replace my graphics card and sure enough, Premiere Pro worked fine. Everything seemed to work fine in both packages except Adobe Acrobat. When I opened a pdf file, Acrobat asked for a serial number, but wouldn't accept my Design Premium serial number. I called tech support thinking they would give me a different serial number for Acrobat or something simple. Needless to say after 3 hours, and uninstalling the software again, they told me I couldn't run two CS4 suites on the same computer. Then a supervisor told me I could run both suites, but I would need to run a cleanup program, uninstall both of my suites and start again!
All software in CS4 Design Premium installs except Acrobat. It is grayed out on the install screen as if it's already installed, and when I try to open a pdf file, the installer pops up, installs Acrobat, and asks for a serial number. When I enter the serial number, it gives me a red "x".
SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME!
I don't know where to turn now ... is there anybody in the United States that I can get help from?
Can Adobe deactivate my CS4 Design Premium and Production Premium and send me the Master Collection CS4?
Please help me if you can!

CS5 Production Premium causing problems with CS4 Production Premium

I have been using CS5 Production Premium alongside CS4 Production Premium for a while now. After Effects, PhotoShop & Illustrator work alright together (both CS4 & CS5 versions). My job actually necessitates me keeping both versions on my machine.
I had need to use both Premiere Pro CS4 and Encore CS4, and neither of the applications would initialize. The following is the error message from clicking the Premiere Pro CS4 application file.
I am uncertain what the application event log is or where it is located.
Over on Creative Cow's site, I posted a similar message in the forums, in which a user stated that I should not have CS4 and CS5 on the same partition of my drive.
I do have a secondary internal hard drive on which I could install one of the suites, however, I want to make sure that it is done properly and efficiently. I have seen some issues with uninstalling CS4 after installing CS5, so I wanted to ask for help before I simply begin to rip software off my PC (since After Effects and PhotoShop - which work - actually comprise 95% of my Adobe workload).
Any suggestions or guidance is appreciated. Also, which version (CS4 or CS5) would be better suited on the secondary drive?
Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.
