I want to buy or upgrade to CS4

hello,
when I was in college in 2008, I bought a student edition of CS3.
since then, I've tried each new version of photoshop that has come available, and CS4 is my absolute favorite.
however I'm very confused by this new creative thing where you have to pay every month.
I just want to buy an upgrade to cs4.
is this possible, I don't know how to contact adobe support

You simply can't buy Photoshop CS4 directly from Adobe.
Adobe now only sells perpetual licenses to Photoshop CS6, and subscriptions that will allow you to run Photoshop CS6, Photoshop CC 14.x, and Photoshop CC (2014).
The newest versions of Photoshop aren't really that different from Photoshop CS4, except that they have a lot of new features.  They may require a bit more from your computer system to run.
There is a decently priced subscription program whereby you get use of Lightroom and Photoshop for $9.99/month.  It's worth looking into.

  • I want to buy the upgrade from PS cs5 to PS cs6

    I want to buy the upgrade from PS cs5 to PS cs6, where can i buy this? and no, i dont want a cloud subscription...

    You can still buy upgrades from this page:  http://www.adobe.com/products/catalog/cs6._sl_id-contentfilter_sl_catalog_sl_software_sl_c reativesuite6.html?promoid=KFPMZ
    Click on the Buy link where you can change from Full Version to Upgrade.  You can upgrade from Photoshop CS5 or Extended and it is only available as a download.  I wouldn't buy from a reseller because most of them are taking full advantage of ripping people off by jacking the prices up.  Also, you might not get a working serial number.

  • Buy cs3 upgrade now with cs4 nearly here?

    I was about to buy the CS3 DW upgrade and learned CS4 was
    around the corner. Does anyone know if Adobe has any kind of
    program that once a product upgrade is announced (CS4) they will
    upgrade any purchases made for the purchase of a previous upgrade
    (CS3) during some time window before CS4 is shipped? I would like
    to upgrade to CS3 (from DW8) but don't want to buy 2 upgrades
    within months of each other.
    Thanks

    In the past, there has been a grace period (after the
    announcement of the
    new version) during which you can purchase the current
    version and get a
    free upgrade to the about-to-be-released version. Adobe
    usually nominates a
    date after which the free upgrade applies (and before which
    it does not
    apply).
    The CS4 announcement is scheduled for Sep 23 so at present
    there is no grace
    period.
    Perhaps wait until after the announcement and see what
    offers, and cutoff
    dates, are introduced by Adobe.
    They'll be keenly aware that potential purchasers are
    probably delaying
    their purchase until after the Sep 23 announcement so I would
    expect them to
    announce their upgrade deals and grace periods fairly
    promptly in order to
    kickstart sales again.

  • Where can I buy an upgrade from Dreamweaver CS5 to CS6?

    I am looking to get an upgrade from my current Dreamweaver CS 5.0 to CS 6.0
    I found this upgrade
    Adobe Dreamweaver CS6 Upgrade from CS5.5 WIN/MAC [Download]
    that is from CS5.5 to 6.0, but I don't know if it will ONLY work with CS5.5 or if it will also upgrade the 5.0 version as well
    Anyone know how i can upgrade my dreamweaver to version 6?

    I'm reasonably certain the upgrade you found at that third party site would not work with your version.
    But it looks like you still qualify for partial upgrade pricing through Adobe, it drops from $399 for the full version to $249 going from 5.0 to 6.0 (skipping 5.5)...
    http://www.adobe.com/products/catalog/cs6._sl_id-contentfilter_sl_catalog_sl_software_sl_c reativesuite6.html?promoid=KFPHB
    1. Click the Buy link under the Dreamweaver CS6 $399..00 price.
    2. Change "I want to buy" to "Upgrade"
    3. Change "I own" to "CS5" and the price changes to the Upgrade Pricing
    If you had 5.5, the price would only be $125 to upgrade through Adobe (that third party site is charging a little more than Adobe does for the same upgrade).

    No. You need to contact Adobe Customer Support and request a Cross-grade

  • Hi there, i want to buy a registered version of PS CS4 (and an Upgrade to CS6)from a private Person...is there any Possibility to check if the Adobe ID,Licence,User is a real person...or a fake before buying it? Thanks for helping!

    Hi,
    just got an offer from a private Person, who owns a boxed Version of Photoshop CS4 (DVD) and an Upgrade from CS4 to CS6....he told me that he can transfer the current license to me... now there's one important question for me...
    Is there any possibility to check his Adobe-ID (which he already told me) if it's the same adress, name,etc. as he told me...
    or if there is an registered Version of PS CS4 owned by this Adobe-ID?
    Just like to check if he's a real person or a fake...don't want to buy any stolen or illegal software...or beeing punked after paying the money...
    Thank you very much for helping me! :-)

    Old versions of Photoshop are not marketed by Adobe. Only CS5 can be upgraded to CS6.  There are many scams on the web if you find a cheap copy of Photoshop out there its most likely a scam... Be careful.....

    SHOULD I KEEP THIS OR BUY ANOTHER ONE WITH 64 bit  I WANT TO USE ADOBE cs3, and will upgrade to CS4  soon.  i use primarily dreawweaver and i want to learn graphics and want to do tons of multitasking

    Seems like you have very much overkill in certain areas and not enough in others. If you will be running Dreamweaver, you don't need a lot of RAM! If, on the other hand you will be using Photoshop, you need a lot of RAM. I've been using Photoshop since 1992 and the more RAM the better, up to about 6 GIGs, then it really doesn' make much of a difference. As for the Graphics cards, not sure why you need 2?? I use Photoshop professionally and have never needed 2. As for the RAM, the graphics cards have their own RAM built in and it should not rob from you system. I use a Quad processor HP running Vista 64 bit. Photoshop flys, as do my other programs. However, I will tell you, if you change to 64 bit, be prepared to upgrade most all of your software, and on top of that, a lot of software is not capitable with 64 bit at this time. I played Hell getting my system set up running 64 bit. If you are not going to be using Photoshop, which is RAM hungry, you do not need more that 4 gigs of RAM.

  • I have upgraded to Lion, and want to upgrade my iPhoto 8.1.2, but when I try it says it was not purchased at a MAC Apple store, which it was.  Then it asks if I want to buy 9.2.3, and I say yes. It responds with Product Distribution file can't be verified

    I have upgraded to Lion, and want to upgrade my iPhoto 8.1.2, but when I try it says it was not purchased at a MAC Apple store, which it was.  Then it asks if I want to buy 9.2.3, and I say yes. It responds with Product Distribution file can't be verified. Maybe damaged or not signed.  How do I get this fixed, so I can download the new iphoto's that are available.

    How did you move your iPhoto library to the new system?  the recommended way is Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc)  or use an external hard drive formed Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.

    Glenn,
    I tried upgrading to leopard, even bought the software and brought it home but it wouldn't let me. So i went back to apple, gave them the specifications of the machine and been told my machine is simply too old for leopard. This is incredible to me because it really isn't THAT old (i think just a little over 6 years maybe) and yet i'm left out on the curb when it comes to using newer apple products. I understand technology moves on but the mindset that i am supposed to dump a perfectly working machine after a couple of years or face not being able to use any other apple product is counter to what thought apple was about.

  • I was running Lightroom 3.6 with the OS Windows XP (Sp3). The whole system crashed, I am unable to recover the serial number. I then upgraded my OS to Windows 7 (x64) and down loaded Lightroom 4.4, I wanted to buy a licence so I then upgraded to Lightroom

    I was running Lightroom 3.6 with the OS Windows XP (Sp3). The whole system crashed, I am unable to recover the serial number. I then upgraded my OS to Windows 7 (x64) and down loaded Lightroom 4.4, I wanted to buy a licence so I then upgraded to Lightroom 5, now when I try to register I am asked for the original licence/serial number. Where do I go from here??????

    If you upgraded from 3.6 to 5 (you didn't indicate buying 4.4) then you will need the serial number from 3.6 in order to be able to use 5.  If you did not keep a record of it there is a chance it might be available thru your Adobe account online, but if not, there is likely not much you can do except to return the upgrade and purchase a full version.  Try contacting support using chat and explain your situation to see if they can help.

    If you did purchase 4.4 then that should be sufficient to use to activate 5.
    I can never be sure what goes on with Lightroom, and the Adobe site (even when it works properly) makes finding information about products difficult these days so I am at a loss to confirm anything I say.

  • I want to buy a new Macbook pro 15 2.3Ghz which is currently on OS mountain lion. Can I upgrade it to OS Maverciks when it is released?

    I want to buy a new Macbook pro 15 2.3Ghz which is currently on OS mountain lion. Can I upgrade it to OS Maverciks when it is released?

    I realized I still had this as an open question, so I thought I would follow up. By calling around, I was able to locate a Macbook Pro that still had ILife 09, so I bought that.
    But then I found out I could actually continue on with Ilife 08, but just wiping the new computer and reinstalling the first disc (system) but not the second one (ilife). So then when I used a Time Machine backup from my old computer to migrate to the new one, it simply continued on with O8. This made me even happier as I really was trying to avoid Faces in iPhoto 09.
    Thank you for the input (I did read it back when you posted it; I just did not realize I needed to "close" the question.)

  • I used to be able to have thousands of pictures on my phone and now after my upgrade it keeps saying "not enough storage" is there anything I can do? I don't want to buy more storage

    I used to be able to have thousands of pictures on my phone and now after my upgrade it keeps saying "not enough storage" is there anything I can do? I don't want to buy more storage
    It says I cloud total storage 5.0 GB available 5.0 GB so whats the problem?

    iCloud storage is for backups. It is not associated with space on your phone. You cannot buy more space for your phone. Check what you have on your phone and delete what you don't use or seldom use to get more space on your phone.

  • I want to buy a new mac.  Would a 21.5 inch Imac run Aperture 3 with 4GB or ram until I can upgrade to 8GB

    I want to buy a new mac.  Would a 21.5 inch Imac run Aperture 3 with 4GB or ram until I can upgrade to 8GB?  And would the stock 512mb video card be fine.

    davidfromdartmouth wrote:Would a 21.5 inch Imac run Aperture 3 with 4GB or ram until I can upgrade to 8GB?
    Specifically, after you buy a Mac test for RAM needs by calculating page outs as described below. The good news is that RAM is cheap enough that every Aperture user who can should upgrade to at least 8 GB RAM.
    And would the stock 512mb video card be fine.
    All 2011 Macs will "run" Aperture, but lesser CPUs and/or lesser GPUs will provide lesser performance. What "fine" is depends on your workflow and how demanding you are. There are some folks here happy with the power of the box you suggest.
    GENERIC UPGRADE ADVICE
    Apologies in advance to those for whom this info is redundant.
    Some general guidelines for operation of heavy graphics applications (specifically Aperture):
    • Only the strongest Macs will provide the strongest operation. Owners of weaker boxes (CPU, GPU, i/o, RAM) or older boxes will experience lesser performance.
    • There is a huge difference in hardware needs among workflows. A heavy pro workflow will only work best on a top well-equipped modern box.
    • As RAM prices continually fall RAM needs will continually grow. This has been true since the beginning of computing.
    OS X has enabled Photoshop, for instance, to take advantage of at least 32 GB RAM for many years even though 32-bit operation limited direct RAM access to ~3 GB RAM.
    • All computers/OSs/workflows are different. Each individual user needs to carefully evaluate (meaning see what the early adopters report) workflow and hardware operation BEFORE upgrading any application or OS.
    • Hardware upgrades should be planned for always-increasing future OS/application demands, not just for today. After all, a computer purchased today is used for the next 3 years, not last year.
    • SSDs rock.  All users, all apps will benefit from using a solid state drive as the boot/apps drive. Strongly recommended. RAM-challenged setups will additionally benefit from 10x faster page outs.
    • All users should regularly evaluate their workflows by checking the Page Outs number under System Memory on the Activity Monitor app before starting a work session; then rechecking after working. If the page outs number increased significantly during operation the workflow is RAM-starved and steps should be taken, such as increasing RAM or restarting and running only one app at a time - - or switching from 64-bit operation to 32-bit operation. [Note: this is a manual calculation of any change in page outs. Ignore the cute pie charts, page ins, etc.]
