    Thanks for the answer: I tried different ways (after I read your suggestion) but it always changes back right away ... I can't change it.

    Maybe try associating AE project files with 5.5 instead of 6.

  • Owner of CS6 Master. Unaccidentally installed Acrobat XI Professional. Was always trial - not upgrade. Uninstalled Acrobat XI Pro. Can I just download the Acrobat X Pro and install it using the CS6 Master License number ?

    Hi, I believe I made a mistake when installed Acrobat XI Professional over the CS6 Master version Acrobat X Professional. The result ended up with running a trial version of Acrobat XI Professional. I wanted to upgrade but not using the subscription version, but rather buy the software and own it, like with my CS6 Master Software. Well, I now uninstalled the Acrobat XI Professional and wondering if I now can download the Acrobat X Pro software, install it and use the CS6 Master license number to get going ?
    Kind Regards
    Gunnar

    Well. After downloading the separate full version of Acrobat X Professional, it could not be installed using the serial # for CS6 Master Collection. I started the installation for CS6 Master Collection and ONLY selected Acrobat X Professional. Voila! Now everything is working.

  • Multiple installs of CS6 Master (Student-Teacher Edition)

    Hi, is it possible to install and use the same Adobe CS6 Master Collection (Student and Teacher Edition) on more than 1 PC?
    E.g. I install in my laptop for use when I'm on the move, and install in my PC for use at home.

    Yes. All Adobe apps can be installed and activated on 2 computers with the same license.

  • I have cs5 on my pc, can i buy cs6 for mac separately and keep both?

    I have cs5 on my pc, can i buy cs6 for mac separately and keep both?
    I have cs5 installed and activated on PC A and PC B.
    If I buy CS6, can I use that on my MAC C and MAC D while still being able to use the cs5 on my PC A and PC B, since mac and pc are two different platforms?
    Thank You!

    No. That would be against the letters and the legal spirit of the EULA and that aside it's not possible for technical reasons. Either you make a platform swap, in which case you will lose your PC licenses of course,  or you buy a second CS6 license for your Mac(s) and keep your CS5 on the PCs.

  • Are we now requiered to buy CS6 to get camera raw 8.4 or is there an upgrade that works with CS5?

    I use CS5 and don't want CS6. I do however need to upgrade camera raw and would like to get 8.4 or newer. Is there a way to get it without having to buy a whole new program? If not I guess I'll have to stop using CS6 and Lightroom 5 for my work and use another program.

    Since I shoot in a raw format,
    With which camera?
    Their current offer is $10 a month or $120 a year to upgrade to CS 6/CC
    You don't have to join the Cloud to get CS6. You can also upgrade to the perpetually licensed version of CS6.

    since I prefer not to store my work on somebody else's system
    As a Cloud member, you can still store your files locally just as you do now. That's my preferred workflow too.
    Cloud membership does come with 20GB of Cloud storage space on remote servers but using it is optional. You're not obliged to.
    I have been with Adobe and using both Photoshop and lightroom since beginning, but I guess all good things must come to an end at sometime.
    Using the free DNG converter, you can continue with your current software and your current camera. You just have to convert the camera's Raw files to DNGs first.

  • Buying a copy of CS6 Master Collection from someone

    Hello,
    I found an ad on craigslist for a person selling a copy of CS6 Master Collection. I was going to meet with them but then saw you can only download to 2 computers and cannot use simultaneously. When I expressed that concern to the seller he claimed he has the pro edition and that it is not the case. He claims he gets 3 downloads and that I would be the last download and it would register directly to me. Is that the case? I read online that you would have to do a license transfer if you buy used from someone. I am very scared to get ripped off, I am a student and do not have a bunch of extra money to spend but need this software for my schooling. What should I do?

    If it smells fishy... it's fishy.. and this smells more than fishy.  A single user license allows for only two activated installations.  The software is registered to one person, the owner.  If the plan for the seller is to retain the software and use of it while pretending to sell you a portion of that license.... walk away and don't look back.
    If you sell a license there is a formal transfer that must take place.

  • Is it possible to use a file from CS6 in CS5.5

    I'm hoping to buy CS6 but I use CS5.5 at college. Is it possible to bring a file from CS6 into CS5.5. If not, where can I get CS5.5?

    PS files are backward compatible if you save them with maximum compatibility enabled. likewise, AI files can be saved back to older versions. Of course in both cases specific features from CS6 will be lost or rasterized to pixels, so they are not editable in CS5.5. In Design might be a bit more tricky. It supports saving back to CS5.5, but this may completely ruin your documents, if you use the new dynamic layout features, Arabic text etc., so it's less useful to go that route.

  • Adobe InDesign CS5.5 and CS6 keep crashing

    InDesign CS5.5 and CS6 keeps crashing while working on the documents. It's hard to identify the patteren when it's crashes. I deleted the SING/DataStore. Used FontNuke to clear all font caches but none of those helps. CS 5.5 and CS6 are installed on different macs but both crash.
    CS5.5 crash data: http://pastebin.com/5PAx08tc
    CS6 crash data:  http://pastebin.com/dZP09DwP
    Thanks in advance.

    I'm not an expert in reading crash reports, though I do recognze a few of the more common ones (which this is not).  You read them from the top down, so the fisrt line in the crashed thread is the last thing it was doing before the crash. In the case of the CS6 crash you posted, the fisrts 8 lines of thread 0 are Apple code calls, and the last thing that was happening in ID had to do withteh Object Widget Library (I think that's what OWL stands for).
    John Hawkinson is our real expert in this, but he doesn't come around this forum that much these days. You can gain some insight into reading the reports at Guide to Interpreting InDesign Crash Reports | InDesignSecrets

  • Can you upgrade from CS5 Production Premium to CS6 Master Collection?

    I have the student edition of CS5 Production Premium suite and Adobe Acrobat X Pro for Windows and I was wondering if there was a way to upgrade it to the CS6 Master Collection. If there is, how much would it cost? I would like to get InDesign and Dreamweaver. Or would it be easier to try to buy the two programs separate?

    I saw that before, but I wasn't sure if it was an upgrade from the CS5 Master Collection or just anything CS5. Shouldn't the upgrade price vary depending on what collection of programs you have? Like shouldn't upgrading from the CS5 Master Collection be cheaper than upgrading from CS5 Production Premium? Will it change if I try to order it?

  • How long i am allowed to use Adobe CS6 Master collection ( Students and Teachers edition ) ?

    I planned to buy Adobe CS6 Master collection ( Students and Teachers Version ) but i have a some confusions.
    1) If i bought the software with an adobe reseller ( a boxed product of adobe master collection CS6 - students and teachers edition ) and obtained a serial number with it, will i be able to use the software for more than one year or three years once it is activated ?

    There is no serial number in retail boxes of S&T, just a verification code and that needs to be properly registered to obtain a serial number - now. After that you can reinstall and reactivate the stuff until the day the Adobe servers fall apart or run out of electricity or Adobe changes their policies.

  • After my CC membership expired, I Can't use my Adobe CS6 Master Collection programs!

    I purchased Creative Cloud(Student Edition) membership last year, and the membership was expired last month.
    Instead of renewing my CC membership, I intend to install 'Adobe CS6 Master Collection', Which I purchased about 2 years ago.
    But when I finish installing 'Adobe CS6 Master Collection' and try to use my CS6 programs, the programs keep popping messages: "renew your Creative Cloud membership".
    I deleted whole programs and installed it again, But it was no use.
    What should I do now?
    I want to register my CS6 programs by using my serial numbers, not purchasing CC membership.

    Temporid which operating system are you using?  Which process did you utilize to remove the Creative Cloud and Creative Suite 6 software which was previously installed?  You can find more details regarding the uninstall process at Install and update apps - https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html.
