Deployment of Adobe XI Pro Cloud and Adobe XI Pro Non-Cloud

Hello - If you have Acrobat XI Pro Cloud and Acrobat XI Pro Non-Cloud deployed in a large environment where both products were packaged with the Adobe Application packager at separate times, how does one systematically determine or report on which version is which (file version, registry path, exes, product ID, etc). As best I can tell they are literally exactly the same.
Here's the scenario, I am rolling out Adobe XI Pro Cloud globally to many computers, a good portion of our computers already have Adobe XI Pro non-cloud version. Typically I run a report on ProductID, RegistryKey, or FileVersion to isolate the correct product that needs to be deployed. In this case, they report exactly the same. What is the best mechanism to report on to separate the two?
Is there a file\folder\registry key that would exist only for an Adobe XI Pro Cloud-Edition installation?
(Note: most of these systems will also have the Cloud version of Illustrator & Photoshop installed, which needs to remain intact, looking for CC folders doesn’t indicate specifically which Acrobat version they have in that case)
Thank you,
            Tony

  • Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite: New Choices for Customers

    Adobe has announced the new Cloud-based model for software distribution, along with new terms for boxed product upgrade eligibility. Beginning with the CS6 releases, when they happen, upgrade pricing on boxed products will only be availble one generation back. There is a limited window to upgrade now to the current versions at a discount.
    See http://blogs.adobe.com/conversations/2011/11/adobe-creative-cloud-and-adobe-creative-suite -new-choices-for-customers.html

    Eugene:
      Based on the current information we have (from the blog post), which may not be correct and which you should not rely upon:
    There is some confusion about the word "discount." As used in the blog post, in general there are no "discounts" for upgrades, there is the upgrade price and there is full price. But, also in the blog post, there is a special "discount upgrade" if you choose to upgrade to CS5.5 today (prior to Dec. 31, 2011), which is 20% off the regular upgrade. However, Peter used the word "discount" to distinguish between upgrade pricing and full price. It's probably a good idea to avoid using that word there because of the potential for confusion.
    I have CS5 InDesign in work. So I will be able to upgrade that to CS6 when it comes out at the discount price?
    You will be able to upgrade to CS6 at upgrade pricing. Not the 20% discount, but it is "discounted" from the full price of CS6.
    I'm still using CS2 Illustrator and Photoshop, for the little work I do in those programs, they're fine. But if I want to upgrade them to CS6 I have to pay the full amount of an upgrade, with no discount... or will I have to pay for CS6 in full for both of these programs?
    You will have to pay the full price (not the "full amount of an upgrade," whatever that means).
    If you elect to upgrade to CS5.5 prior to Dec. 31 of this year, however, then then you can pay the discounted upgrade price to upgrade to CS5.5 (well, CS5 since Photoshop CS5.5 doesn't exist), and then you can pay the CS6 upgrade price in March/April. So you can pay for no upgrades (full price) or two upgrades (one of which is 20% off).
    At the moment I can upgrade CS2, photoshop and Illustrator for €240 each, to CS5. So wouldn't I just be able to do that now and then buy the CS6 upgrade at a much later date perhaps just before CS7 comes out?
    Yes, you can do that.
    If CS6 has the tools to basically go "File>Export>Epub" and I get a fully working epub file without having to trash about in code afterwards or make complex tagging in InDesign, then I'll be buying it.
    It looks like EPUB is evolving pretty fast, so even if ID CS6 fully supports what you want out of EPUB on Day 1, I bet you'll need to be prepared to postprocess it on Day 2. Or at least long before Day 200.

  • I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and Adobe Premier 10 loaded on a Dell PC. Do I need to uninstall from the Dell before I install on a recently purchased Apple Mac Pro? There are separate disks for Mac and PC in the package.

    I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and Adobe Premier 10 loaded on a Dell PC. Do I need to uninstall from the Dell before I install on a recently purchased Apple Mac Pro? There are separate disks for Mac and PC in the package.

    Generally, it's ok to install on two machines as long as they are both yours and you only use one version at a time.
    BTW, this is the forum for Adobe Contribute.

    Hello courtneym48375386,
    Could you please let me know what version of Outlook are you using.
    Please try opening some other PDF file and check if the same issue persists as this might be a document specific issue.
    Also, what happens if you try opening the file in Acrobat?
    Let me know.

  • Using Acrobat 9 Pro Extended and Adobe InDesign

    I was wondering if my MB would be capable of running Acrobat 9 Pro Extended and Adobe InDesign. My MB has 4GB of RAM, when in Parallels it I have the RAM allocated to 1GB for XP and 3GB for OS X. Currently, I have 84GB or hard drive remaining. Would these two programs operate okay on my MB? Also, is it possible for me to install them on a separate HD so that it does not hog space on my MB?

    would I be able to install the programs on an external hard drive so it doesn't hog my Mac's hard drive space?
    if buy the whole CS4 design Premium Suite, would I be able to select which components to install?
    You should probably post those questions on the Adobe forums: http://www.adobeforums.com

    BNN, even though I understand what KT is saying, your thought resonates with mine. When it comes to building and maintaining my website, I see myself more as a photographer than as a web designer. Hence, even though Apple may not be actively developing (and we are guessing on this one, arent we) iWeb, the existing functionality should do plenty of good to me for next couple years at least.
    That said, they released a point update a few days back and with the whole cloud thing building momentum and mobile me going for free, why would Apple want to pull the plug on such a fantastic product?

  • How do I update Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 and Adobe Premiere Elements 9 on a new computer?

    I have previously used both Adobe Photoshop elements 9 and Adobe Premiere elements 9 on my old computer with Windows XP operating system without problems. Now I have a new computer with Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit operating system.  I have installed both programs but when I try to update them I get a message saying "The update server is not responding.  The server might be offline temporarily or the internet or firewall setting may be incorrect.  Please try again later." I have tried numerous times with the same result.  I have tried uninstalling both programs and re-installing but still get the same message.  What do I have to do to be able to update these programs so I can get on and use them? The information with the programs says they both work on both Windows XP and 7.
