Really? No educational upgrade from CS5.5 to CS6 without paying full price?
We bought the CS5.5 educational copy for our daughter in college. Now she needs CS6. Called about an upgrade and was told there isn't one, that we need to buy a whole new version or use cloud with a monthly fee. Basically our CS5.5 is useless now! I have never been a big fan of monthly subscriptions either. What a rip off!
Useless? How so? Has it stopped working?
And I think you misunderstand the upgrade policy. You can buy a CS5.5 to
CS6 upgrade but there is no academic upgrade. If your daughter is still
in school she can buy the full CS6 student version or move to Creative
Cloud. If she's no longer a student she can get the CS5.5 to CS6
commercial upgrade or move to Creative Cloud with intro pricing of
$29.99/month for the first year.
The academic price of Creative Cloud is $29.99/month.
Your closing statement here was unnecessary. I suggest you check all of
your facts in the future before ranting, especially here. This is a user
to user forum, not a direct line to Adobe.

Any assistance would be appreciated been trolling the net for ages no success.
I apologise, I had overlooked that; it should be possible, though.

FAQ | Adobe Creative Suite
Owners of a CS5 or CS5.5 suite edition qualify for upgrade pricing to a CS6 suite edition. Owners of an individual CS5 or CS5.5 product qualify for upgrade pricing on that CS6 product. Any version earlier than CS5 will not be eligible for upgrade pricing. -
Your help is much appreciated!
Not at Apple unless you purchased it within the last 14 days. Apple will give you a small bounty for recycling.

Is there a free trial for Standard?
I tried the Pro trial but don't want to buy it if the cheaper Standard does what I need.
The comparison chart doesn't answer my question about the specific functionality I'm looking for.
If a trial isn't available, and I buy Standard but it's not enough, can I upgrade to Pro without paying full price?Hi Barry ,
Unfortunately there is no free trial for Acrobat Standard.
You can purchase the Standard version ,and if it does not suit your requirements ,you can return that back to us and opt for the Pro version.There is a 30 day return policy .
The reason being there is a price difference between the Standard and Pro version for Acrobat .

I am trying to upgrade from CS5.1 to CS6. However, that seems easier said than done. The installer claims that my license number is not a valid product for the upgrade. Any ideas?
>As I said pretty clearly I would have thought
Not clear at all... you said "from CS5.1 to CS6" without giving a program or suite name
>have CS5 albeit Design Standard and have purchased CS6 Design and Web
You are not upgrading to the same product... when I go to the CS6 purchase page, there are separate links for Design Standard and Design & Web Premium... so, as I said in my first reply, your existing product does not qualify as an upgrade
http://www.adobe.com/products/catalog/cs6._sl_id-contentfilter_sl_catalog_sl_software_sl_c reativesuite6.html?promoid=KFPMZ
>can find no loophole for Adobe not to accept the license number
Cancel/Return your Design & Web Premium and buy the upgrade to Design Standard if you want an upgrade price -
Upgrading device without paying full price
I want to upgrade my device to a smartphone, but Verizon says I can't do this until August, unless I want to pay full price for the phone. Is there anyway around this?
Pretty much your only options, short of adding another line to get an upgrade/new phone, are to look for the phone you want on eBay or Craigslist, sometimes you can get them for close to, or slightly more than the 2 year price, and also avoid having to renew your contract. Depending on what phone you want, I've seen them go from 200.00 to 400.00 (only one thats really up there in cost is the Razr Maxx).

I cannot believe that apple is refusing to help a customer who bought and paid for iWork software just because I bought it from the retail store the App Store says they cannot allow me to upgrade. I have never heard of such. It should to matter where I got it i bought apples software and I don't et how the retail store can be different frothe App Store my god its all still apple. So stupid. I will not pay full price for the upgrade. Also I purchased Logic Studio and 2 days later the upgrade came out and they will not let u upgrade ? I think there should be at Least a 30-45 day window if u purchase software and they release the upgrade u should get not. It's not like apple doesn't make enough money already.
iWork '08 & 09 installed from the retail disk or from the downloaded trial must be updated through Software Update. Those installations will not be recognized as installed by the Mac App Store. In Mountain Lion Software Update has been "rolled into" the Mac App Store. Choose Software Update from the Apple menu just like you always have & the Mac App Store will launch. Depending on what you have that needs updating you may see two sections in the MAS window.
But, as always, if you're not running the latest versions of the iWork apps installed from a retail box or the downloaded trial & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. If you installed from the downloaded trial or the retail box, they must be in the iWork '08 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '08. If it doesn't have the '08 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.
If you are running Pages 3.0.3, then you do have the latest version of Pages from iWork '08. If you want to upgrade to iWork '09, you will need to purchase the new version, just like everyone else. The good news is that you can buy just the individual iWork apps - Keynote, Pages & Numbers - that you need or want for $20 US each from the Mac App Store & then install them on as many Macs as you need using the same Apple ID. -

Upgrade From CS5 To CS6 Problems With Flash Graphics?
Hi People.
I upgraded from Adobe CS5 to CS6. I originally built a printable book and developed an interactive version in InDesign CS5, which I finally exported to Flash. For the printed version I used Adobe illustrator to create the book images and for the interactive version I converted the images into SWF.
The upgrade from Adobe CS5 to CS6 went well for the InDesign printed version of the book and I exported the new CS6 version of the printed book to PDF. However when I opened the old InDesign CS5 interactive version of the book in InDesign CS6 I was missing the links for the images.
When I tried to relink the images I was told `Cannot place this file. No filter found for requested operation:.
Please please help me because I am 2000 images in the new CS6 interactive version and short of going back and replacing each one individually, I am at a loss.
Thanks.Steve,
Thanks...
Yes I can place the old SWF file into a new CS6 document and that works well, but I`m talking about 3 books of a total of nearly 10,00 images, which is a lot of time of replacing old for new,
Maybe I`ll stick with the interactive books staying in CS5 because I can`t see any material benefit of upgrading them to CS6, unless they were to be EPuped from their present CD Rom format?
However I do think it is a dreadfull oversight of Adobe not to stop me be penalized in a large slice of my profession, interactive second language book production, for the good intent of upgrading my CS Master Suite,
Take Care. -
Keywords lost in upgrading from cs5 to cs6
Hi,
Recently, I upgraded from Photoshop CS5 to CS6, including Bridge.
A very bad surprise was to find that the keyword system that I had developed and used to assign kewords to new pictures was no longer there.
Apparently, this very important "personal setting" was not transferred in the upgrade procedure.
What can I do to retrieve it?
What is the filename in which Bridge keeps the keywords?
Perhaps I could find it on my system or some backup.
Or, if that won't work: I notice that when opening an old picture its kwds appear in the kwd panel, although in italics. and not in the hierarchical fashion they should.
However, retrieving my kwds this way would be a terible task if I have to open each of thousands of pictures one by one.
Is there a batch kind of way to do this, that retrieves the kwds from all pix in a folder with subfolders?
Please help,
SverkerThanks all for considering my problem and for the advice!
I was away from these matters for a while, now I'm back on it.
First let me mention that I did indeed find a program for looking into the big .MIG file.
But alas, the keywords file was not there, don't know why (thus it didn't matter to me that extraction of files from the .MIG didn't seem to work.)
Thus I was ready to follow the advice you guys gave me from the beginning, to recreate the keyword list from the image files. I made some use of the suggested Find / Keyword, chosing a particular keyword or just "exists" for a folder.
But I soon found out that my keyword structure needed several improvements, and thus I gave up simply hitting Make Persist.
Instead I am working my way on smaller chunks of files -- feels worth the trouble.
To make this work more efficient, it would be useful if there were a way to prevent Bridge from starting to immediately writing changes to the files on disk, doing it over and over again for each keyword I assign or remove.
Would be much better if I could make all changes in, say, a folder and then ask Bridge to write the changes to disk.
Do you know if there is an option to stop the immediate writing of changes?
I vaguely seem to remember I'v read about it, but now I can't find any such opotion.
(maybe this should be posted as a new question?)

After upgrading from cs5 to cs6, do I have to upgrade extensis fusion 3 to 4?
Do I have to upgrade from fusion 3 to 4 now that I have upgraded cs5 to cs6?
And do you know if extensis offers student discounts? I can't find anything on the 'net or their site, but I thought I'd ask here too before I buy the upgrade for (ugh) $50.
I thought maybe I would open the files in cs5 first, to auto-activate the fonts, then close, then reopen in cs6. Kind of a hassle, but it saves me a bit of green…
Any suggestions welcome.Yes, I have posted there, too. But these forums are more robust. Thanks

Opinions on Upgrade from CS5 to CS6
Hello,
I am using CS5 now and am wondering how big of a performance and overall improvement I will find by upgrading to CS6? I am not moving to the CC so I thought I might do one last hurrah, but only if it offers some decent advantages.
Your input on the move from AE CS5 to CS6 based on user experience would be appreciated. I am on Windows 7. ThanksThe biggest performance improvements in After Effects CS6 are from the global performance cache, as shown here:
