Going from CS3 to CS5
I have just updated from CS3 to CS5 and am experiencing
growing pains. I have several questions but I will do them one at a time.
first- In CS3 I edited a jpg file then hit save as and change the file name in order to have the original file
and the edited one saved. CS5- When I do this and hit "save as" nothing happens. Am I doing something
wrong or is this an "improvement" of CS5

Do you have a small screen display? One that doesn't meet the minimum 1024 x 768 pixel requirement of Photoshop perhaps?
Unfortunately, it will not put up a Save dialog on a too-small screen. Yeah, that seems pretty bogus.

Upgrading from CS3 to CS5 issues
I work at a medium size College on a pretty small team, 1 editor/writer, 1 communications coordinator, and 1 designer (me). I've been using InDesign (ID) for 5 years now and we added on the InCopy (IC) workflow a few years ago with CS3 (both of us then had CS3). The editor and I just recently upgraded from CS3 to CS5 and we've hit a snag. I opened a project, the Academic Catalog in fact, in CS5 that we began in CS3 which we were almost finished with and when I tried to check out a story I got this error.
"This story needs to be converted to "InCopy Document" format in order to edit it."
The editor got the same message in IC. So I thought maybe files created by CS3 for IC don't work with CS5 so I decided to try to unlink the INCX files in ID and relink. Sure enough it created a new ICML file which the editor was able to open, edit, and save in IC. And I thought I had my problem solved until I opened the file in ID; when I tried to update the linked file ID crashed. I've tried unsuccessfully to get the updated stories from IC to update in ID w/o crashing. I've restarted the computer; it is Windows afterall. I've run 'Updates' in both our programs, and it says there are none. I've tried tossing the ID and ICML file; fortuanalty I was smart enough to do all this with a copy of the orginal CS3 file. I followed all my above steps a second time and it's still crashing. I'm not sure what to do at this point. Does anyone have any ideas? Is there a known issue like this?
btw, we're both running Windows Vista and both in CS5 (7.0).AM
I might just have to go back to CS3 to finish this project up—fortunatly I foresaw an issue like this and kept CS3 installed. That will most likely solve the problem with this project, provided it too does not crash. And that is my concern for future 'new' projects in CS5, are those going to crash too? I think I'll do some testing with my editor.
Bob,
What type of additional info would help?
Thanks,

I'm currently in the process of switching over from CS3 to CS5 on my iMac. I've successfully updated the main part of the suite but when attempting to update Acrobat was given a warning the scared me. It said something about possibly losing my current PDF's. It appears that you have to uninstall your old version of Acrobat before installing the new version. If I do that, will I lose all of my pdfs currently on my system or will they still be there after uninstalling the program and reinstalling it?
Straceylou16 no you will not loose your PDFs. It is only going to remove the old version of Acrobat. Your PDFs you have saved will not be affected.

Swf previews in browser and doesn't work on server after upgrade from cs3 to cs5
I have upgraded from CS3 to CS5. My site uses a template created in dreamweaver 8. When I edit a page and embed a .swf file created in flash cs5, it doesn't work on my server, but works on my computer when I 'test in browser'. I have uploaded all the files in the 'scripts' directory. I am streaming video. I have tried using both actionscript 2.0 and 3.0 and streaming .flv and .f4v. None work.
I have a big site and do not wan't to redo my template unless I absolutely have to.

<!-- InstanceEnd --></html>It's not 100% clear from your post, but you should be aware that CS5 plugins should not work in CS5.5. Because of a CS5.5 bug, CS5 plugins will load in InDesign 7.5.0, but that is fixed in 7.5.1 so they will not load.
You should lean a bit harder on Virginia Systems. They should be able to tell you how to get them the stack trace from the crash which they should be able to look at and tell you which plugin (if any) is responsible for the crash. I could do it for Mac OS X but I don't know how under Windows. You could start by looking at the Event Viewer, though. That may have some helpful information about the crashes and the faulting module. -
Can't find this info anywhere... Can I upgrade from CS3 to CS5 or CS5.5?
After using Adobe products for years and years, it's not only my opinion but the opinion of many of my colleagues that CS upgrades are only worth it about every other upgrade. That might be a subjective opinion, but it does lead in to my question: Does anyone know if I can upgrade from CS3 to CS5 or CS5.5?? I can't find that info anywhere on Adobe's site.
Thanks!Does anyone know if I can upgrade from CS3 to CS5 or CS5.5??
The Adobe Buying Guide clearly states that the answer for CS3 to CS5.5 is yes.
Design Premium example (other Creative Suites are the same):
http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/design/buying-guide.displayTab2.html
You won't be able to buy CS5 from Adobe (not that you'd have any reason to). -
Upgrading from CS3 to CS5.5 Design Premium??
Hi there, I work for a small print company and we are in the process of upgrading from CS3 to CS5.5 Design premium, the company has purchased a new Mac (runs Lion 10.7), our old Mac is on 10.4 and it has run CS2 upgrade, and a few years back we installed the CS3 upgrade. We have not installed any of the creative suite onto the new Mac and I am wondering can I just buy the CS5.5 upgrade and use the CS3 upgrade serial number when installing? Will this be enough?
Or do I need to go back to the initial Creative Suite that the company brought from scratch and enter that serial number?
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!Just have the serial number from CS3 handy when you install.
More good news for you. Starting today if you buy CS5.5 you get a free upgrade to CS6 when it ships.

Opening .psd Files from cs3 In CS5?
I'm new to photoshop CS5 and I'm getting this error on some PSD files "Could not complete your request because it is not a valid photoshop document" and I think its because these .psd files were made/saved in CS3. So is there any way I can open CS3 .psd files in CS5?
If CS3 .psd files should open fine in CS5, then does anyone know what could be my problem? thanks!There should not be an issue with PSD's from CS3, in CS5. There were some compatibility issues way back, but Adobe offered the ability to include that backward compatibility.
My first thought would be that there is a problem with those particular PSD files. Do they Open in PS CS3? Do they Open fine in programs, like IrfanView?
Now, if there IS an issue with CS5, someone will correct my assertions.
Good luck,

Deactivate CS3 on your old computer. Install and activate CS3 on your new computer. After you have done that, you can upgrade to CS5.
From the forum thread posted earlier: If CS3 is detected by the installer as being already installed in the machine, it will read the old serial number transparently and will prompt you only for the serial number for CS5. -
I purchased Photoshop CS5 upgrade. When I enter the CS3 serial number (Adobe CS 3 Design Standard) I receive the notice that the serial number is valid, but a qualifying product cannot be found on my computer. Why is the upgrade not able to find my CS3 copy?
Thank you for your reply, Jeff. I did enter the CS5 serial number, and when prompted entered CS3, as my original, (the updating product) followed by that serial number. It was at that point I received the message that the serial number was valid, but a qualifying product cannot be found on my computer. I have read elsewhere that one cannot upgrade from a suite to an application. Have I made a 'financial error' and purchased the wrong product? Sue

You would first be entering the Photoshop CS5 serial number followed by your eligible product. If the serial number is valid then it should not be also searching for a qualifying product.

Upgrading from cs3 to cs5 ext.
hello,
dec 20/2010 the adobe site had a sale on, i upgraded from cs3 to cs5 ext. i have deactivated it on the laptop that i have been using it on and want to install it on my xps710
The only problem is that when i try to activate cs5ext the dropdown menue to select the serial number that i want to use for the cs3 is not an option, any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Jim
P.S, i dont remember the process that the adobe support walked me through when i installed it on my laptop, something to do w/ selecting "trial version", then something else, i cant remember.Wasn't able to quite figure your problem, but see if this doc helps you: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/100/1008779.html

Updating a Site from CS3 to CS5
I just searched to try and find an answer to this one and not be a nuisance. Not much luck.
I just upgraded from CS3 to CS5. CS3 is still installed and everything seems to be working fine. What I'm not sure about is whether or not I should simply open my current CS3 site in CS5 and continue working, or if it's better to define a new site and somehow bring the site over. Since, the CS3 site is quite old, I also need to update the code to XHTML.
Any tips?I also recently upgraded from CS3 and it was fine to just open the site up and start working.
One caveat - I would caution about uninstalling CS3 unless you absolutely need the room. I've run into a couple of extension that are no longer being supported in asp on CS5. Until I figure out a replacement, it's been nice to fall back to CS3 just to tweak occassionally. -
Graphic Change from CS3 to CS5
I created a 3 layer graphic file in CS3 with one layer being text. I imported it into the target application, DVD Studio Pro, and it looked fine. I copied that file onto another computer where I installed the trial version of CS5. (I didn't want to risk messing up my editing computer). I imported that file into DSP on the 2nd computer and it looked fine.
I then opened the CS3 file in CS5. I modified the text, changed nothing else, and saved it as a new file. When I brought the 2nd file into DSP it was changed! It was squeezed. When I look at both in CS5 they look the same with all the same settings. The rotten part of this is I have already created 200 files that I assumed would work!!!!!
So again, file#1 from CS3 looks fine in DSP. Anything new is squeezed and distorted. I REALLY need some help on this to try and save my work - otherwise its back to square 1 and CS5 goes out the window.
Thank you in advance.
I should add that viewing the files in Preview you can see the size of file#2 is been reduced by about 25% even though all the specs are the same.Hi,
Does it make any difference if you don't use a text layer?
Was the file you tried attaching under the 5MB limit? I sent you a private message to see if there's another way to get a sample file.
regards,

Upgrade from CS3 to CS5 on Mac
Our company just purchased CS5 and we were told that we should be able to upgrade from CS3 (we never got CS4). The box we received states it's an upgrade from CS4, but when we asked adobe, they said it should install. No such luck. Should we have received a different version or is there something we're supposed to do differently?
You most certainly should have. The upgrade from CS4 is (assuming Design Premium) is $200 less than the upgrade from CS2/CS3.
If you purchased directly from Adobe call them and get it straightend out.

Is there a way to move my keyboard shortcuts and preferences from CS3 to CS5?
I just loaded CS5 and I'm starting to work with it. Big difference from CS3 and I'm finding things don't work the same at all. Anything i can do to make this seem more familiar, like using the same keyboard shortcuts and workspaces?
Workspaces are stored as XML files in your user profile on Windows or the user library on Mac, in a subfolder called, strangely enough, workspaces.
You may have run afoul of the new "content grabber" in the center of a frame that allows you to move the content without changing tools. Looks sort of like a dounut, or the center spot on some SLR camera focus viewfinders. You'll either love it or hate it, and it can be switched on or off in the View menu.
