Photoshop CS4 Extended upgrade from CS3 Student Version

I was looking for the Student upgrade from CS3 to CS4 for Photoshop, but could not find it.
I only saw the regular upgrade edition, not the student one.
Could anybody please help me?
Thanks in advance

There is no such thing as a student upgrade. Your educational version of Photoshop entitles you to upgrade to the commercial version of Photoshop but you'll pay the same price as everybody else.
I'm assuming that ($199.99) is still cheaper than buying a new, full educational version.

  • Upgrade from CS3 Student Version to CS4 Standard failed!

    Problem:
    Got a new MacBook Pro 10.9.5 and had to install all my CS software new.
    (NOW: I can't open any of my old CS5.5 files, because only CS3 is working at the moment)
    I'm having:
    CS5.5 master collection upgrade (not working. it says: need an CS4 upgrate!)
    CS3 Design Standard Student Version (is working)
    I recently bought:
    CS4 Standard upgrate (to get back to my own CS5.5 master collection upgrade)
    But now CS4 Standard ask for my CS3 Design Student Version serial number and it is not working, but the serial number is correct!
    I need to choose an Adobe CS3 product, but there is no CS3 Standard Student Version. If I choose CS3 Design Standard my serial number isn't working.
    Can anyone help me?

    I didnt even know contribute went to 4.4 I thought 4.1 or 4.11 was the last version in the 4 series.

  • Photoshop CS4 extended upgrade problems.....Help!

    I am using Photoshop CS3 (registered and activated) on my old computer.
    I built a new computer and want to install CS4 extended on it. I purchased a Photoshop CS4 Extended update from Amazon for $342.99. During installation of CS4 on my new computer I entered the serial number. The next page that pops up is Upgrade Check that asks: 1) Select product that you already own: The only choice is Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended and 2) it asks for the serial number. I am upgrading from Photoshop CS3, not the extended version, so it will not accept my serial number. Photoshop is installed on a trial basis right now.
    I tried installing Photoshop CS3 on the new computer but that did not help and CS3 did not recognize the CS2 installation disk that I put in the CD drive to prove that I was allowed to install a CS3 uprade.
    The new computer I am trying to install on is an Intel i7 920 processor on a Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD4P motherboard, with 12Gb RAMM, a Sapphire Toxic Radion HD 4870 graphics card, and running Windows XP pro 64 bit. I installed the operating system on the D drive. This computer is not setup to connect to the internet.
    I am also trying to install Adobe CS2 Creative Suite (everything except Photoshop), but the CS2 installation does not recognize the Adobe CS1 disk 1 when I put it in the CD drive as requested.
    This is all very frustrating considering how happy I have been with my Adobe software all the way back to Photoshp 5. I called the 800-833-6687 number and after playing phone tree for a while was informed that I was calling outside their hours (at noon on Sunday) even though the webpage I got the number from says they are available 7 days a week.
    It was bad enough that after spending $195 to upgrade to Photoshop CS3, 3 weeks later Adobe announced Photoshop CS4.
    Thanks in advance for any help,
    Steve

    You do like making things complicated don't you?
    From your message I deduce that you purchased an upgrade that is not in the upgrade eligibility path from the version that you had.
    It's not logical but then what is these days in Adobe marketing? The only solution seems to be to get back on the telephone.

  • Photoshop CS4 Extended- change from PC to Mac and a lost licence key.

    Hi,
    I have been trying to get into adobe chat to ask these two questions, however it always comes up with an 'chat is unavailable' and I'm unsure of where else to turn- as there is no email contact and no number.
    I bought Photoshop CS4 Extended (Student edition) a few years ago and got a disk which i have been using on all my pc computers (deactivating old computers and re-activting new ones), However i have now changed to Mac- and the disk will not load on the mac as it is set for windows. I have then tried to download, CS4 online- but my licence key comes up with a red cross and it will not be accepted. I have looked at other chats and looked at different sites to download the cs4 (and apparently the extended cs4) however i can never find the right download or its just a read me pdf document.
    I just want my CS4 photoshop on my new mac computer and unsure how to get it.
    Secondly i lost a licence key when one of my family computers died- and have only had one licence key since then. I'm just wondering is there a way to get this back?rent
    Is there a different way to contact adobe? Chat just doesn't seem to work for me- and i would love to get these two questions cleared up.
    Thanks,
    Rachael

    Prior to the subscription models—and of course that includes CS4—the Photoshop license was platform specific, either Windows or Mac, but not both.  Your CS4 Windows serial number ("key") will never work on the Mac version.
    CS4 is out of the loop as far as requesting a platform swap for a nominal fee.  It is no longer supported by Adobe in any way. A platform swap required the destruction of your PC version, so you could not use both the PC and the Mac versions.
    For a time, you could have used CS4 to upgrade to CS6 for about $200, but that time window has closed by now.  Now you would have to own a legitimate version of CS5 in order to be eligible to buy an upgrade to CS6.
    You can of course buy the full version of Photoshop CS6 Extended for $1,000 from the Adobe store:
    Creative Suite 6
    Alternatively, you can subscribe to Photoshop CC and Photoshop CC2014  on a monthly basis without ever owning the software.  If you stop paying monthly, the software ceases to work.
    The cheapest subscription is the Photography plan, which includes both Photoshop and Lightroom for $10 a month.

  • Photoshop CS4 Extended Upgrade Problem

    I tried to install CS4 Extended Upgrade, and when it asks what previous version I have, the only version that is listed is CS3 Extended. I have Photoshop CS. How do I go about upgrading?
    I hope I purchased the proper version, as there is no mention of prerequisite versions on the outside of the package OR on the inside.
    I asked Adobe support 3 days ago now and have yet to hear from them, so I thought I would ask on here. Thanks.

    Nothing anyone here can help you with. Wrong serials/ installer packages having been sent out to people happens a lot, but only sales can manage such issues...

  • Installing Photoshop CS4 Extended upgrade on my Mac Pro. query

    Hi all I do hope you can help me. I have just purchased ps cs4 extended upgrade for my Mac. On attempting to install the istall program checks my system profile then asks me for the serial number for the new product. all well up to this point, then on the next page it tells me it cannot find an existing product to upgrade from and asks me to insert the serial number of the qualifying product. I have the full version of cs3 standard on my Mac so i insert the number. Ok so far. on the same page it asks me to choose my qualifying product showing cs3 extended in the box. However when I try to insert cs3 standard I find there is nothing to change to only this one option.  On the adobe website it clearly shows that I should be able to update from the standard version  to extended. Can anyone dvise me. I purchased the upgrade from Apple and I note it is the international version.

    Thank you for your Help, just come off the phone to Adobe. I had to put a Challenge code in as it was as you suggest the wrong package only allowing Upg from CS3 Extended. All sorted now thanks to a very patient and helpful Adobe guy.  Have since updated and everything seems ok even though I am on Snow Leopard.
    Thanks again Denis

  • Upgrading from CS3 student edition to full

    I have a CS3 Design Standard student edition, and wish to upgrade to the full commercial version.
    When selecting which product I own, student editions aren't listed. Do I just select the upgrade from 'CS3.x Design Standard'?

    Correct.

  • Photoshop CS6 Extended upgrade from Photoshop CS5 Extended

    I am running the Teacher/Student edition of Photoshop CS5 and plan to up grade to Photoshop CS6 Extended non- eacher/Student edition.  Will the be any complications with this upgrad. 

    Hi Jerry,
    While upgrading you should maintain the same form of licenses, which is if you haveretail CS5 then do get the retail upgrade of CS6,
    If the cs5 version is volume then do get the volume upgrade. Please refer to this link for the upgrade path,

  • Activating a CS4 Extended Upgrade from CS2

    I just purchased the upgrade version of CS4 Extended, but I am not able to activate the software as the qualifying products drop down ONLY lists CS3 Extended, not the other PS versions that the Adobe site indicates are acceptable upgrades, like my CS2.  Is the only way to get this activated by web...I just hate the wait times when having to call.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you for the quick response, and yes, I have checked my account, and the CS2 license number IS listed there (as well as several others ).  So should I then be able to activate the CS4 Ext upgrade online?
    I just saw a very similiar problem/post but could not see any other resolution other than having to CALL Customer Support .  If this is an Adobe-approved upgrade path, why are they making it so difficult to activate?  Eats up my time, eats up their time .

  • Adobe Photoshop cs4 extended invalid serial number

    I just bought adobe photoshop cs4 extended from a large retail computer store.I had the trial version of photoshop cs4 extended.I uninstalled the trial version and installed from dvd.I got a Invalid serial number error.I am sure there was a software configuration problem .The reason ,the disk needs to verfy that you have the original disk,If that happens ,After installation ,Just delete this file C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe PCD\cache\cache.db This is the location where it installed the serial . After deleteing it will create a new cache.db file and store the serial there that goes with that disk . When you open PS cs4 it will ask to enter serial again.Just enter the serial again that came with box ..I guess this would work also with adobe photoshop cs4

    I encountered the same problem with Photoshop CS5 - I had the trial version installed, and now bought the extended version, but it keeps saying the license key is invalid.  I did unistall, ran the cleanup tool, but it is still not working.  Any help is appreciated.

  • Upgrade from CS3 to CS4 Extended

    I have just purchased an upgrade from Photoshop CS3 Standard to Photoshop CS4 Extended, and have problems activating. In the dropdown it only offers an upgrade from CS3 Extended and will not accept a serial number from CS3. I've spent about 2 FRUSTRATING hours on the phone today and all they can offer is that I give them the challenge code and they activate this installation, and each time I have to re install I would have to do the same. Needless to say I wasn't impressed at all, and have got an RMA number. Has anyone else suffered from this problem?

  • Can accurate measurements be made and images scaled in Photoshop CS4 Extended - Student Version

    I draw and amend plan based images (similar to Ordnance Survey plans) and need to be able to work in detail using accurate measurements to create a 2D representation of a building or other feature and their surroundings to a particular scale. Ideally I want to take this further to use the base plans as a means of generating a 3D image.
    I currently have Photoshop Elements 6 which does not allow me to either measure distances/line lengths or work to a defined scale. Am I correct in understanding that Photoshop CS4 Extended - Student Version would overcome this technical deficiency?
    Thanks, KJ

    Get the trial and play with the vanishing point filter. It allows you to draw planes in perspective, scale, clone to the drawn perspectives, measure distances between points and define a distance which is used as a baseline to measure out all the other perspective lines.

  • Installing photoshop cs4 extended with cs3 suite

    Hi,
    I would like to install photoshop cs4 extended with cs3 suite on the same drive.
    Is it possible?  Should I uninstall photoshop cs3 (not extended) from the drive first?
    Should I use the WinCS4Cleanupscript before I do that.
    I dont want to uninstall the whole suite cs3.
    Thanks for your advises

    CS3 will co-exist quite happily on your computer with CS4.
    Do not remove it until you are completely satisfied with the new version!
    There is absolutely no need for the clean script at this point. It is only to clear up after messed up un-installs.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended - Trial Version Expired

    Can someone help me please. I have searched the forums but I cannot find a solution.
    I installed the Photoshop CS4 extended trial which expired a few weeks ago. In the meantime I have purchased a copy of Photoshop CS4 (Standard not Extended). I completed removed the trial but I am unable to installed the purchased copy. I am getting the trial expired serial input screen.
    I have also tried the unistall with REVO but this has not made any difference.
    I have tried to use the Adobe cleanup but I dont think its worked properly. I am running Windows 7 Operating System.
    I have uninstalled/installed photoshop 5 times now and its driving me mad

    There is no problem such as you describe.  If you buy a legitimate standard edition license, you can enter that serial number and the trial version will be activated as the standard edition.
    Where did you get this copy of Photoshop CS4?
    If not directly from Adobe, there's a chance you were scammed and your serial number isn't valid at all.  Photoshop is heavily pirated.

  • Photoshop CS4 extended 64bit crash opening CS3 files

    Everytime i open a CS3 psd file in Photoshop CS4 extended 64bit the application crash after few minutes or seconds... this is very very very frustrating...
