Difference Between CS6 and CC Versions

I started the update to my CS6 software thinking that all this talk about the upgrade being designated as CC was a Marketing move.  Instead the Application Manager installed the CC version and kept the CS6 version installed.  What's the difference and why do we need both the CS6 and CC verions on our machines?
Thanks in advance! - Ron

Or, as in my case, Muse gives you an registration error message one day and won't launch (thinks I'm using a beta version when I'm not). Adobe support eventually advises you to remove all your copies of everything Adobe on your machine, including preferences etc. CS6, 5, 4...
Support sends you a link to download Adobe Application Manager because you can't download it from your My Adobe. It works and you have time to download two of your Adobe apps because your day has been shot. Next day you launch Adobe Application Manager again and suddenly it upgrades and turns itself into Adobe Creative Cloud but won't actually launch as an app-managing app. Some kind of glitch. Now your array of CS6 apps doesn't exist anymore and you can't finish downloading your CC set.
Adobe takes desktop control of your machine (very nice support feature) and can't solve it after an hour or so and so tell you to restart after creating another admin user, severing the chat connection. Now I'm waiting another hour for a chat representative to take my chat and hope for the best.
Makes me wonder whether the boxed sets weren't better after all.... at least you knew you could reinstall something and DIY....  you weren't so completely and utterly dependent on Adobe support.

  • Differences between standard and pro versions

    I was reading the comparision of these two Acrobat versions and for Pro it says:
    Edit and enhance photos to add to your PDF communications with Adobe Photoshop® CS5.
    Quickly transform static PowerPoint slides into compelling, interactive PDF presentations with Adobe Presenter       
    Rapidly combine screen recordings, narration, video, slides, and more into a rich media experience with Adobe Captivate® 5
    Does that mean that the Pro version includes Photoshop, Presenter and Captivate programs as well? Or, what are the differences? As an aside, the new look and feel of the Adobe website is confusing at best. Seems geared to being flashy, not useful.
    Regards, David

    Acrobat does not included those other packages. One of the pages that always struck me funny (maybe I have a twisted mind) but has this artistic background is the updates page. The background looks like a lacy bra to me. It is the first thing that comes to mind every time I see it. That is a problem with abstract images (that are typically unnecessary and waste bandwidth), that a lot is in the eye of the beholder. Actually, I have heard from many others that also see the bra.
    OK, back to Acrobat. There are several aspects of Acrobat that allow you to have links to the other products built in, but they are not included. The page at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatpro/buying-guide.html?promoid=JIJYS provides some info, but a lot is missing. For instance there are differences with PDF Optimize and Reduce File Size I think (sorry, I do not have Std to check). One important one that is part of pro is the preflight option. Apparently Std does not include portfolios or allow PDF comparison according to the chart.
    If you are into forms, then Std apparently will do them as AcroForms (my preference, partially because of familiarity), but does not include Designer if that was your preference. Some of the enabling for Reader is not available in Std. Also, Std does not allow embedding Flash. Std is limited for some of the products that include PDF Maker (not a big one for me, but might be important to you).
    That is a quick summary based on the chart. However, be aware there are some other features that the chart does not seem to cover. For the difference between Std and Pro, I would suggest getting Pro. The big hit is the initial cost of the product, not the step up to Pro. In a business plan consider the time that might be wasted trying to do some of the things in Pro that are not in Std. Those are the types of issues to consider. Many folks consider the cost to be large, and for a small business it is. However, in the long term it may be worth the cost.
    Keep in mind that many large CAD packages in engineering run about $30,000 for a single license, half the cost of the engineer that would use it. Some other tools are about $15,000. In that view, Acrobat is cheap (except for cheapskates like me).

  • Can I use a Photoshop CS6 guide book I got in college to learn CC, or is there too many differences between CS6 and CC?

    I have a guide book I got in college to help me learn Photoshop CS6, but I never finished the class. My question is: Can I use this book to learn Photoshop CC or is there too much diversity between CS6 and CC?

  • Differences between US and UK versions???

    Hi.
    I'm about to buy a Black MacBook and am wondering about the differences between the 2 versions.
    I know the keyboard layout is slightly different. The UK version has a £ key and the enter key and "\" keys are re-configured. I'm also aware of the region coding on the DVD drive but once it's changed (first played movie) that won't be an issue. Are there any other obvious differences that I need to be mindful of?
    Thanks

    The slide on plug for the MagSafe adapter is different. Depending on where your going to use it you will need the correct plug adapter for it.

  • Differences between Educational and Retail versions

    Question:
    What are the Differences between the Educational and Retail Versions
    of Photoshop?
    Answer:
    1). There is NO limitation on use of the Educational Version, only on
    aquisition of it in that you must meet the educational requirements to
    qualify for purchase.
    2. There is NO functional difference between the Educational and
    Commercial versions,
    3), The Educational version will always show the Academic splash
    screen even if you later use it to upgrade to a full Commercial
    version.
    4). Educational versions of Adobe software do not always ship with the
    'free goodies' such as fonts and clip-art that the full commercial
    versions include.

  • Video -- difference between iPod and iPad versions?..

    Hello all -- I am wondering, what is the difference between "create iPod version" and "create iPad version"/... I searched teh Net and couldn't find anything on this topic. If you have already created a video for use in an iPod, can it also be imported into an iPad?? Additionally, what is the difference between the two versions? Thanks very much for any input. (We're talking iPod Classic and iPad2...)
    Nick

    the iPad is capable of displaying HD content (up to 720p), an iPod obviously is not. creating an iPad version will provide a file with higher resolution which will not play on iPod.
    a file created for iPod will play on iPad, however, will not look as good on it.

  • LabVIEW 8.5.1 Student edition - differences between Mac and Windows version?

    Hi,
    I've just bought the student version of LabVIEW 8.5.1 and am using Mac OS X 10.4.11. What are the biggest differences between the Mac and Windows versions since the box came with a Mac installer CD and a Windows installer DVD?
    Cheers 
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Looks like you got the LabVIEW Student Edition Software Suite DVD.
    It comes with 6 toolkits, and from the product spects, some (or all?) of those are windows only (at least in 8.5), e.g.:
    Digital Filter Design Toolkit
    Modulation Toolkit
    SignalExpress
    Since you have 8.5, you are also missing a few basic things that only recevied MAC support in 8.6, such as Mathscript, Control design and Simulation, and Native 3D graphs.

  • What's the difference between CS6 and CC apps?

    I am confused. I am running CS6 and having problems with Adobe Exchange in Illustrator - works fine in PS and INDD.
    For some reason Illustrator cannot find an internet connection. Tried ALL of the prescribed troubleshooting but it's still broke. Is there any advantage to running CC versions of the apps?

    iPad apps are designed specifically for the iPad and will not run on the iPhone or iPod Touch. iPhone/iPod apps will run on the iPad, but will only take up an iPhone sized portion of the iPad screen (though you get a 2x button which effectively doubles each pixel in both directions so may appear pixelated). There are also 'universal' apps (which have a '+' symbol against them in the store) which have processing in them to recognise the device that they are on and will tailor the display accordingly (so will make use of the iPad's larger screen).

  • Difference between US and Australian Versions of PSE 11

    There is a significant price difference between the US and Australian Adobe shops. For an upgrade it cost USD 80 in the US and AUD 120 in Australia. At present the AUD is stronger than USD !!
    Would I be at any disadvantage if I choose to download from US site?

      The correct answer is that Adobe charges different prices in different markets. Where the fixed costs of doing business are spread across a smaller population there will be fewer economies of scale and hence higher pricing. Many users purchase software whilst visiting the US, but they forgo their statutory rights in their own country if problems arise with the purchased product. So whilst the product is identical, after sales care is restricted to the market in which it was purchased.

  • Difference between Windows and Mac versions

    Could anyone tell me whether the files generated by the Mac version of In-design stricly identical to the *.indd and other files (templates, libraries) generated under Window? If not, what are the differences? Thanks in advance for any help.

    There is no significant difference, but they will not be bit-for-bit identical.
    For instance, the INDD file format records which version and platform of InDesign created the file, so that small piece of information will certainly differ. Also, historically, when Macs used non-Intel processors with different byte order, ID may have stored some numbers in reversed byte order. But since everything is Intel now, that's not an issue.
    In any case, there is 100% compatibility between both platforms. Mac ID can read Windows ID and vice versa.
