Last chance to move up from PS7
With the CS3 product cycle, Adobe instituted a "3 versions back" policy on upgrades. That is, you can upgrade to the current version of Adobe tools from any version up to three versions back. In the case of CS3 that meant Photoshop 7, CS, and CS2. With CS4 it's of course CS through CS3. The upshot is that if you want to upgrade from Photoshop 7, the window is closing, and
you've got until October 15 to do so.

  • Upgraded from Photoshop elements 7 to photoshop elements 12.

    I recently upgraded from photoshop elements 7 to photoshop elements 12. I tried to restore the backup from elements 7 to the new version, using the restore catalogue option. It found all the photos, but the album info was not restored. Could you advise what I did wrong or an alternive solution?

    Hi,
    Are there no albums in the left panel of Elements Organizer 12? Please try expanding "Local Albums" panel on the left.
    Thanks

  • I want to upgrade from Photoshop Elements 5 to Lightroom 5.  Can Lightroom 5 read/convert a Photoshop Elements 5 catalog, or is Elements 5 too old to read?

    I want to upgrade from Photoshop Elements 5 to Lightroom 5.  Can Lightroom 5 read/convert a Photoshop Elements 5 catalog including all of the tags, captions, etc, or is Elements 5 too old for Lightroom 5 to read/convert?  What's the best way to migrate?  (My catalog has over 100k images in it.)

    Adobe changed the catalog software from PSE6 onwards to the SQLite database – as used in Lightroom.
    Earlier versions of PSE including PSE5 used a Microsoft Access database, stored in a file called [Catalog Name].psa.
    If you have already embedded keywords and captions by writing file info into the images they should be readable even if catalog conversion fails. Lightroom does have the ability to import a PSE catalog but in view of the age of PSE5 I would recommend downloading the 30 day free trial of LR5.6 and then you can judge the level of success of catalog conversion.

  • Can I upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5 after installing Lion?

    Can I upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5 after installing Lion?   Or should I have done it before installing Lion?

    I think you are missing my point.
    For the last many editions of the creative suite they have each been completely independent. There is no "going over a previous version. Each version stands on its own and is a clean install — as long as you haven't installed that specific version before.
    And "obsolete" is a pretty relative term. With products as complex as the creative suite there are often features (or even whole applications) that change between versions. Many people I know keep earlier versions around, just for that very reason.

  • Should i upgrade from photoshop cs3 extended to photoshop cs6 non extended

    hi im just wondering should i upgrade from photoshop cs3 extended to photoshop cs6 NON extended...... would i loose options from my extended version?
    also i dont use photoshop cs3 that much, does anyone think its worth me upgrading?
    thanks

    Good day!
    I think I read that with 2013 the upgrade path would be shortened, so you are probably not eligible for upgrading anymore.
    Apart from that the benefit of purchasing the current version of Photoshop naturally depends on what you are doing with Photoshop (both in terms of which features you use and how much you use the application overall).
    Smart Objects have been improved quite a bit, Puppet Warp is an interesting feature, Configurator allows for the easy creation of custom Panels that can combine Tools, Commands, Actions etc.,  …
    But to judge the programm yourself you could just install the trial – mind you, the trial is Photoshop Extended, so you may want to consult the Reference on which features you would not get with Potoshop Standard.
    You might also want to look into Cloud Licensing – or at least »Adobe« wants you to …

  • Hello - I upgraded from photoshop cc to cc 2014 and lost my plug ins.  How can I move them into cc 2014? Thanks

    Hello - I upgraded from photoshop cc to cc 2014 and lost my plug ins.  How can I move them into cc 2014? Thanks

    The install of 2014 doesn't move or copy anything from a previous version, with the exception of settings. You can go into your Photoshop CC installation folder, navigate to your plugins folder and then just copy all the plugins you've installed from that folder and into the Photoshop CC 2014 plugins folder. The plugins should then be available in 2014 the next time you launch Photoshop.
    The only thing that may prevent this from working is if you're using the 32bit version of Photoshop CC. Photoshop CC 2014 is 64bit only so 32bit plugins don't work. If this is the case for you, check out the manufacturer of the plugins and see if they have 64bit versions available.

  • Cannot direct upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5 Extended

    Despite the information in various spots on Adobe's website, it appears that it's not possible to simply upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5 Extended. After entering the CS5 serial number, the installer asks for the serial number of a "qualifying product". This includes a dropdown list that only has
    Photoshop CS5
    Photoshop CS4 Extended
    Photoshop CS3 Extended
    Here's the view:
    Entering the CS2 serial number == fail.
    A call to Adobe support get past this issue, basically reading out a challenge/response from the installer to the guy on the phone. But this seems remarkably stupid to me. Was it really more effective to force me (and anyone else following this upgrade path) to call tech support just to install the software I just past $350 for? And if this was the plan, why not SAY SO ON THE ADOBE WEBSITE?!?
    Has anyone else run into this issue? If so, was calling tech support the only way out?

    You are correct in wishing Adobe made it clear that you do need to go through Customer Service to accomplish this.
    Most users make the purchase through Adobe and straighten this out before installing.

  • I want to upgrade from Photoshop Extended CS5 to PS Extended CS6 (I do NOT want CC) but have been unable to find this at a sensible price (or sometimes at all). Help, anyone please?

    I want to upgrade from Photoshop Extended CS5 to PS Extended CS6 Mac (I do NOT want CC) but have been unable to find this at a sensible price (or sometimes at all). Help, anyone please? This is in UK, btw!

    What do you consider a sensible price?  PS CS6 extended is available only when you purchase the CS6 Suite, which is around $1000 for the upgrade from CS5.  PS 6, which is not extended, is about $200, but I'm not sure about upgrading to a single app from a suite.  Adobe used to allow it, but I'm not sure about now.  PS CC and Lightroom 5 combo is $9.99 a month or PS CC alone for $19.99 or the whole CC suite for $29 a month.  The latest CC apps are "extended."

  • Upgrade from Photoshop Elements 8 to 11 ?

    Can I upgrade from Photoshop Elements 8 to 11 on my iMac 2.8 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo running OSX 10.6.8 ?
    (And while I'm about it, should I upgrade my OS - if it's possible on this iMac ?)

    Based off the system requirements listed at http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-elements/tech-specs.html it would appear you can upgrade successfully.   You should be able to upgrade to at least Mac OS 10.7 as well.  You may also be able to upgrade to 10.8 as well but you will want to verify if your particular iMac supports 10.8 or not.  Not all Intel Core 2 Duo Macs were able to upgrade.

    How can I upgrade from Photoshop Elements 12 to Photoshop Elements 13  AND Photoshop Premiere Elements 13? What would be the price?

    Hi Raymond,
    I would advise you to buy the bundle package of Premiere and Photoshop Elements 13 which cost 149 $ but due to online promotions the price right now is 119 $.
    Thank you for posting on Adobe Forums.

  • How do I upgrade from Photoshop Elements 11 to PSE 12 (student edition)

    How do I upgrade from Photoshop Elements 11 to PSE 12 (student edition)

    I believe you just need to purchase the upgrade.  I don't think there is any additional discount with upgrade pricing, meaning you don't also get a student version discount with an already discounted upgrade purchase.  As far as versions go, there is no difference between a regular and a student version... the difference is in the licensing.

  • Can I upgrade from Photoshop Elements 7.0 to 8.0?

    Hello, I was just wondering if I would be able to upgrade from Photoshop Elements 7.0, to Photoshop Elements 8.0 or 9.0? I ask, because I'm still currently running Windows XP, but I will be switching over to Windows 7 this weekend, and it turns out that PE 7.0 isn't compatible with W7. After running the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor, it has informed me that a paid upgrade is required, but I just can't figure out how to upgrade. I know there are newer versions for PE, but I don't really care for PE 12. I just want something simple. If anyone has any information on this, please feel free to answer.

    Yes it should work.
