I own CS6, upgraded from CS5.5 and need new computer.  Do I need to reinstall all CS s'ware I own?

I own CS6 (upgraded from CS5.5) and need a new computer.  Will I need to reinstall every other CS package I own (in order) to get CS6 to work, or is there a quicker way to reinstall CS6?

There is a quicker way....Start with the CS6 installation directly, when prompted to enter the serial number for previous version, enter it and you should be good to go.

  • Procedure for installing CS6 upgrade from CS5.5 on new computer

    Hello,
    I am running Design Premium CS5.5 which was an upgrade from CS4.  I am buying a new laptop.  Can I install CS6 directly?  Or do I have to install CS4 and then CS5.5 and then CS6?
    Do I "deactivate" CS5.5 on the old computer first?
    Thanks!
    Tony

    Hi Tony, you  need not to install CS 4 and CS 5.5. You can directly install CS 6 on your new laptop.
    It will ask your serial key for CS 6 and then it will ask the serial key for the qualifying product , in this case it will be the serial key for your CS 5.5.
    And then it will start the installation.

  • If I upgrade to Lion from Leopard will I need to reinstall all my programs?

    I have a bunch of photo & video editing software as well as some other things such as parallels on installed on my computer. I really don't want to have to reinstall everything all over again. I've tried to search this question, but I'm having one of those "technically challenging" days. For some reason, I can find everything about Lion except this.... I'd really love to upgrade, but if I need to reinstall everything, I don't have time to do right now.
    Thanks so much!

    You can upgrade from 10.5 to 10.6 with no problems. Any program that runs under 10.5 should run under 10.6. See this list for compatibility with 10.6: http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/  You might have to upgrade some drivers for printers, etc.... And you will have to install Rosetta if you have any Power PC applications http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/article/snow_leopard_installing_rosetta/ 
    To upgrade your iLife and iWork. If you only want iPhoto or other single apps from iLife '11 you can get them from the App Store after you've upgraded to 10.6.6. iPhoto, iMovie or Garage Band for $15 each and Pages, Keynote or Numbers from iWork '09 for $20 each.
    You can order a Snow Leopard 10.6 install disk for $29 as long as you have at least 1gb of RAM and 5gb of free space on your hard drive. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
    Once you are at 10.6.8 you can buy Lion for $29 from the App Store if you have at least a model 2,1 MacBook. Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly As for programs see this list for compatibility with 10.7 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
    Before Mac switched to Intel processors they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications.

  • I do not have my discs for install.  My main computer is dying and purchased new computer.  How can I reinstall on new computer without discs?

    Hi,
    My main computer is dying - keys do not work and video is gone.
    I purchased a new retina Macbook pro and want to reinstall Logic Audio Pro 9.  I do not have my original discs.  I can still access the program on the original Macbook to deauthorize if necessary.
    But how can I reinstall wihtout the discs?
    Any help would be great.  Thank you!

    Carbon Copy Cloner -or-
    You could remove the HD and put it in an External Enclosure -or-
    Maybe try using Apple's Migration Assistant -and finally-
    Once you have the new computer set up you may want to use Time Machine

  • CS6 upgrade from CS5 worth the cost?

    CS5 upgrade to CS6 costs $199.00.  Is it worth it?  Thanks.

    All depends on how you use it.  If you buy cameras, CS6 will read future ACR (currently 8.2) although no "enhancements" will be included.  CS5 will be stuck with 6.7 forever.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/whats-new-cs6.html#id_70139
    Look at the list of CS6 enhancements and see if you might use them.  Beware that CS6 uses the video card more heavily and therefore at least a moderate card is needed.  3D requires at least 512 meg VRAM.
    Hope this helps.

  • Student CS6 upgrade from CS5

    How much is this upgrade and where is that download link?

    There are no upgrades for S&T versions. You simply buy a completely new license at the discounted price (if you are eligible).

    No, but do make a complete backup of your system just in case.

  • How do I upgrade from CS5.5 to CS6 and how much does it cost in New Zealand?

    How do I upgrade from CS5.5 to CS6 and how much does it cost in New Zealand?

    If you don't want to go the Cloud route and subscribe then Adobe still sells CS6 (online only) via their website
    http://www.adobe.com/au/products/catalog/cs6._sl_id-contentfilter_sl_catalog_sl_software_s l_creativesuite6.html
    (make sure you're in the NZ store - check the Country the link above the Copyright at the bottom LHS of the page)
    Select your product then click Buy
    I want to buy: Select Upgrade from the dropdown menu
    I own: <select your existing CS5.5 product>
    Complete your purchase.
    Upgrade cost depends on which CS5.5 suite you own and which CS6 suite you want to upgrade to.

  • Photoshop CS6 issue with shortcuts and my keyboard after upgrade from CS5

    I recently upgraded from CS5 Extended to CS6 Extended on my Mac (Mavericks), but installed it in English instead of German this time. I transferred most of my presets just fine, but none of the keyboard shortcuts were working. All I got was an unequal sign for all shortcuts and even manually changing them didn't get them to work. I found a few discussions about this issue and ended up adding a German keyboard, as I am always on the Romaji setting of my Kotoeri (Japanese) keyboard. That seemed to solve the issue, but only if I change to the German keyboard before opening Photoshop. Shortcuts don't work in CS5 anymore either unless I do. Sometimes the shortcuts also stop working a while after I change back to the Kotoeri keyboard.
    Now I would like to know if there is any way to get around this issue. Isn't there a way to get my shortcuts working again without constantly having to change keyboards? I much prefer the Kotoeri one since the icon for the German keyboard in my menu bar looks extremely obnoxious, in my opinion. It's mostly a cosmetic thing to me, but I would love to get everything back to the way it was before.
    I'd much appreciate any advice or help.

    I am having a similar problem. Just upgraded to Apple Yosemite and all none of my keyboard shortcuts are working in a clean install of Photoshop CS6. Every menu item has some form of the ≠ sign. I've trashed the .plist file, rebuilt permissions, etc. Even basic keyboard commands, like Command-N for NEW or Command-Q for QUIT do not work. In fact, many don't show up in the menu at all. I don't have this issue in InDesign CS6 or Illustrator CS6. Every once in awhile, maybe 1 time out of 20, menus and keyboard shortcuts work properly, but I can't find any pattern.

  • Can i upgrade from CS5.5 design and web premiun to CS6 and still keep CS5.5 Dreamweaver

    I want to upgrade from CS5.5 Design and web premium to CS6 standard. There are several programs like Dreamweaver that are not in CS6 standard. If i upgrade will i be able to keep the CS5.5 versions of programs that are not in the upgrade?

    Yes, you can upgrade S&T editions by buying a commercial upgrade. Just make sure to pick the correct previous version during check-out or you'll get a serial number snafu...

  • How much is the price of upgrading from CS5.5 Design and Web Premium to CS6 Design and Web Premium?

    How much is the price of upgrading from CS5.5 Design and Web Premium to CS6 Design and Web Premium? 
    And why is this price not on the Web site?
    And when will this price be added to the Web site?  It's long overdue.

    Sorry.  After downloading required Adobe CS6 Design and Web Premium files and attempting to install, the error message "
    The file archive part of Adobe CS6 Design and Web Premium is missing. You need all parts in the same folder in order to extract Adobe CS6 Design and Web Premium. Please download all parts" appears.  Using Window 8.  This happens on the Adobe Design and Web Premium CS6 installer file.

  • Multiple problems installing upgrade from CS5 Design Prem. to CS6 Design Prem.

    I had started a thread a few days ago regarding problems that I was having while installing my upgrade from CS5 Design Premium to CS6 Design Premium.  Everything seemed to install fine with the exception of Acrobat X Pro.  http://forums.adobe.com/message/4716847#4716847
    I thought that I had resolved the issue through tech support, but apparently not.  First of all, they had me install the trial version of Acrobat X which actually let me install with no errors. A couple of days passed and Acrobat asked if I would like to continue my trial or enter a serial number. I tried to use my serial that came with my upgrade but it rejected it, so I opted to continue the trial.  Then earlier today as I was working in InDesign, upon launching I got a script error message.
    Error in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Startup Scripts CS6\Flash\Flash-12.0.jsx
    Line 153: if( app.name = = flashAppname && (module.name = = 'DefaultScript' II module.name = = 'Flash'))
    Cannot open resource file.
    After clicking OK it seemed to open InDesign fine and I was able to open files and go about working. While working I noticed that I had no effects in the dropdown menu under 'Object'. Tried the shortcut for them and nothing happened.  I have yet to try to open any files containing effects (drop shadow or something) but am guessing that they will not work. My next course of action was to try to Uninstall and Re-Install. I removed CS6 and Acrobat X Pro from my computer and ran the Creative Suite Cleaner program. Then instead of installing the upgrade from the DVD, I decided to download the program from the Adobe LWS and give that a go thinking that maybe the download files are more up-to-date than the DVD that I recieved.  Now it seems I am back to square one with the same problems (InDesign missing 'Effects' and who knows what else, and Acrobat X Pro failed to install), but this time I have diffent errors on the "error summary file" that shows up as a link in the "Installation Complete" dialog box. Sorry for being windy, but I really need to get this resolved. Thanks for any and all input.  PC is Dell Precision T3500 running Windows 7 and is current on it's updates.
