Problem purchasing CS5 Design Premium Educational Edition

Hi all,
I want to purchase the CS5 Design Premium Educational edition.
I live/work in Singapore and am attending distance learning at the New York Institute of Photography. While my classmates are enjoying the benefits of using CS5 with student discount, I am stuck using GIMP, which while good, does not offer the same functionality or stability as Photoshop.
The reason Adobe customer services give is that it's because I live in Singapore but my educational credentials are from USA. These need to match for the purchase to proceed.
Surely this should not matter? Does anyone know of any way I can make this happen?
Many thanks

Negativ3,
This forum is not officially monitored by Adobe. It is a user-to-user forum. As such, the answers you get are primarily speculation and not authoritative when it comes to sales and licensing issues. My recommendation would be to call Adobe Customer Support and ask to speak with a supervisor. Explain the situation that although you are resident in Singapore, you are part of a distance learning, internet-based course based in New York with the New York Institute of Photography. If the supervisor cannot assist you, ask to be connected to a manager. Eventually, you should be able to talk with someone who understands your situation and can resolve the issues.

  • I've lost CS5 Design Premium Teachers Edition CD Installation Package. How can I download it? Typical version of CS 5 Design Premium is not working with my serial number

    I've lost CS5 Design Premium Teachers Edition CD Installation Package. How can I download it? Typical version of CS 5 Design Premium is not working with my serial number. Can someone help me?

    Łukasz%20Molenda if you purchased Creative Suite 5 from Adobe directly, and choose the download option at the time of purchase, then the download will be available in your account at http://www.adobe.com/.  You can find additional details at https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/find-download-link.html.
    If you purchased the software on a DVD and your current computer does not have an optical drive then you can copy the installation files to a USB drive on a computer which does contain an optical drive.

  • Problems downloading CS5 Design Standard students edition on Mac OS X (Lion)

    HI:
    I just recently bought a students license for CS5 Design Standard.
    I am trying to download the file as per the instructions on the mail sent but as soon as it reaches 2 GB dissapears from the download and it cannot be launched.
    Can you help??

    Crperez80 the following steps will allow you to locate your download:

  • I purchased CS5 Design Premium in 2010 - can I download it to a new Windows 8 computer?

    And if so, how?

    When I go to that link, and go to the post about CS5, I have issues.
    1. When I go to each of the general direct download links for the suite, I just land on CC pages with no way to select CS5
    2. When I select File 1 for Photoshop CS5/Windows (from the list here: http://prodesigntools.com/all-adobe-cs5-direct-download-links.html#more-5886), I get the following error on the page it leads me to:
    You don't have permission to access "http://trials2.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/PHSP/12/win32/Photoshop_12_LS1.exe?" on this server.
    Reference #18.bdc88f18.1372831251.64177b8  
    3. When I select File 2, I get a similar error:
    You don't have permission to access "http://trials2.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/PHSP/12/win32/Photoshop_12_LS1.7z?" on this server.
    Reference #18.bdc88f18.1372831369.6417a38
    Am I missing something, or doing something wrong?
    I also saw instructions to click on "More Information" in the Creative Cloud download manager-type program, under a particular program (eg photoshop), and that there should be a dropdown on the page I go to where I can select CS5 isntead of CC - but the dropdown in the screenshots is not there for me when I go to the page.
    Anything else I can try? :\

  • Should have one more available cs5 design premium download but it is not showing up as available

    I purchased CS5 design premium in 2011 and when purchased i was under the impression that there were 2 downloads available.  I currently switched to a new computer and would like to use my additional download of the program, however it is showing that none is available.
    please advise

    There is no limit to the number of times you can download the software.  The limit is on how many installations of it you can have activated at a given time.

    You can also download the trial version of the software thru the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.
    Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site and have cookies enabled in your browser or else the download will not work properly.

    You would have to provide the install logs to figure that out:

    Otherwise you should run the cleaner tool and try again:

  • Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design and Web Premium Education Edition

    I was given an uninstalled Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design and Web Premium Education Edition by a guy who purchased the wrong product.  He purchased a PC version but he has a Mac.  He was unable to install it and unable to return it because the package was opened.  He did however get a little way into the www.adobe.com/go/edu-validate system.  He apparently got far enough into that process to enter the temporary product code and connect it to his email address.  When I enter the product code, it asks me for the original email address.  I don't have the guy's contact info.  Is there any way to reset this so I can install the product?

    Chances are it will be up to this guy to manage any reset.  It will probably require transfering the license to you formally. 
    When you do get in touch with this guy again have him follow the requirements outlined in the page linked below.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/transfer-product-license.html
    If you think you would like to try to convince someone at Adobe to make this change for you you can try by using the contact options linked below.  But don't get your hopes up if the story remains at some guy who you can't contact gave it to you.

  • CS5 Design Premium Installation Adobe Bridge problem

    When I try and install CS5 Design Premium it fails because it wants me to close Adobe Bridge (which is not open) and won't let me go any further. I tried uninstalling CS3 but it won't let me because it wants me to close Adobe Bridge.
    What Now?

    There shoult be a Bridge icon in the system tray (bottom right corner), close Bridge from here and run the uninstaller or if you don't find this icon you can kill process Bridge.exe but this is not always the best way to overcome a problem. I would recommend closing the application from system tray icon.
    Thanks,

    Hi  - I recently purchased a new iMac. I have a registered cs5 design premium package which is an upgrade - I have no disc for cs4 but have the qualifying serial number for it. I have installed cs5 via download onto my iMac but it is not accepting the serial number. Can anybody help. Does anybody else think that Adobe will loose a lot of customers by not providing any chat or call support for cs5 users??

  • Problem with opening re-install of CS5 Design Premium on Mac.

    I am trying to open component programs of CS5 Design Premium in Mac OS10.7.5 after re-installing CS5 on my MBP late 2008. I receive the following message:
    "Configuration Error:
    A problem has occured with the licensing of this product. Restart your computer and re-launch the product.
    If this problem still occurs after restarting, contact Customer Support for further assistance, and mention the error code shown at the bottom of this screen.
