Requirements for Special Offer (CS3 Upgrade or Full Version?)

Hello,
I'm thinking about upgrading from CS6 to Creative Cloud and have a question regarding the requirements for the special offer. On the website it says "Requires prior purchase of CS3 or later" and I'm wondering if I need a full version of CS or an upgrade? I have a Photoshop 6 (Full Version) and a "Design Standard CS3 Upgrade" - is this enought to qualify for the special offer?
That would also mean, I could sell my independet upgrade-packages of CS5 and CS6, since I would not have a need for them if I keep the CC-subscription.
Thanks
Jan

Piotr,
Based on Dec9's comment, it sounds like an upgrade.
However, you state:
had the licence transferred to me.
Did the seller furnish you with the "official" Adobe license transfers. There is paperwork involved, and did you get that? What does it say? Adobe makes it easy for a seller to transfer a license legally to another, and there is necessary paperwork involved. You should be, first able to see how Adobe noted the software, and if there is confusion, then will have something to use, when you contact Adobe C/S on licensing/Activation issues. Or, you'll have paperwork to use against the seller when you contact eBay.
Good luck,
Hunt

  • Why is it that free games are usually require to purchased the upgrades or full version not free at all?

    Why is it that free games are usually require to purchased the upgrades or full version not free at all?

    Cause the people that developed them didn't do it out of the goodness of their hearts, they did it to make money.
    I don't go for many games, but one thing to look for is a lot of 'top in app purchases' then read the reviews.
    they kinda fall under a technicality, the shell of the game IS free, but content isnt'. Just like the app to read a magazine is free, but the actual magazines aren't.
    And i'm sure the app store loves to see so many 'free' signs on the cover, so they can advertise taht there are tons of free apps...which technically there are and they're not lying. Not until you did into it do you see that free app  is not the same as free app with free content.

    Hi wrtoicke,
    I just checked your account, and it looks as though you've already canceled your account.
    I think you're going to be very happy with your full version of Acrobat!

  • TS1702 I just upgraded a full version of "ISO Fits" app from App Store 2 days ago but the upgrade wasn't successful. I reported the problem to the developer but had not received any reply. What should I do?

    1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
    OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
    Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
    Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
    Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
    Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
    How much free space on it now?

  • Which photoshop is for beginners and not the costly full version?

    which photoshop is for beginners and not the costly full version?

    Depending on what you want to achieve, there is also Lightroom 4.
    When comparing CS6, Lightroom, and Elements, Adobe says:
    Q:  How do Adobe Photoshop, Photoshop Extended, Photoshop Elements, and Photoshop Lightroom software differ?
    A:  Photoshop Elements 11 (US$99) is designed for people who are just getting started with digital photo editing, and delivers powerful yet easy-to-use options that help you organize, edit, create, share, and help protect your personal photos.
    Photoshop CS6 (US$699) is the professional standard for creating and manipulating powerful images, and Photoshop CS6 Extended (US$999) delivers everything in Photoshop plus tools for creating and editing 3D images and objects.
    Photoshop Lightroom 4 (US$149) addresses the workflow needs of professional and serious amateur photographers, enabling them to import, process, organize, and showcase large volumes of digital photographs quickly, or develop a single image.
    And they also have a page that neatly summarizes the best uses for each product. This article gets even deeper into the comparison. I hope this is helpful!

  • CS3 - is it upgrade or full version?

    Hi guys! I have bought CS3 on eBay and had the licence transferred to me. The seller told me that this was full version of CS3. But when I try to install from DVD, it tells me that this is an upgrade and I have to enter the serial no. of previous versions (7.0, CS or CS2). Can you definitely tell me what version do I have? The sticker on the box says DVS/A.PHSP.10.0.WIN.GEN.UE.W/SENSOR and there's a number - 90081623.
    cheers,
    Piotr

  • Is Solution Manager required for ECC 6.0 upgrade?

    We will upgrade our system from 4.7 to ECC 6.0.  Is Solution Manager a required tool in ECC 6.0?  My understanding is Solution Manager has to be run on a different server, ie.  we will have to buy a new server.   We have a small SAP implementation with only FI & CO modules, so we are trying to cut our costs if we could.  Can anybody share their experience?  Thanks for any input.

    In an Upgrade , Solution Manager is required for Upgrade Keys and downloading the support packs . Now a days to download the support packs you have to approve it in Solution Manager otherwise it won't show up in your download basket.
    May be SAP can provide you the keys & approve the SPs ( they used to do that before ) , in that case it isn't required.
    You can also manage your upgrade project in Solman . Sooner or later you need to install solution manager. it's a nice system.Many good features like central monitoring, early watch alert etc etc ...
    Thanks

  • Upgrade vs Full version of Dreamweaver CS3

    Several questions:
    1. I have DW MX 2004. If I upgrade to CS3 is it the same as

    other users who have the new full version CS3 on their machines.
    2. If CS3 upgrade is the way to go. I presently have MX 2004
    on my laptop and on my desktop. Will I be able to install the
    upgrade CS3 on both machines?
    Thanks

  • Buy upgrade or full version of LR 4?

    I lost my LR 3 software, but still have the serial number. Should I buy the upgrade or the full version of LR 4?

    Yes, even with that.
    LR4 does not require an installation, but  checks validity of the previous LR3 serial number, when a LR4-upgrade serial no is entered instead of a full LR4-serial.
    This is done vs. a database at Adobe.
    It is somewhat different than with Photoshop, where you need to disable your previous version first, in order to reuse its serial for anything else (be that an installation on another comp or an upgrade serial). Yes, less secure on Adobe's side, but no hassle if a comp has broken down before being able to disengage the old serial.
    I guess they would detect if 2 LR4-upgrade serial numbers would be installed with the same LR3-serial, so the second one would not be successful.

  • Snowleopard upgrade and full version

    I have macbook with leopard. I want to upgrade it into snowleopard. But I found 2 types of dvd, upgrade version and full version. What is the differences and advantages between full and upgrade? If I buy the full version, could I install it in my mac(leopard)? Because I found more easily the mac box set (full version) that is cheap.
    Thanks

    The 10.6.3 white retail disk (so called "upgrade disk") sold online at Apple are full version disk of OS X Snow Leopard, however it also has a upgrade installer for OS X versions 10.4 and 10.5.
    So if you boot the Mac into 10.4/10.5 and stick the DVD in and double click the upgrader, it will replace 10.4/10.5 with 10.6.3 and leave your programs and files alone.
    If you stick the same disk in and boot the machine while holding c or option/alt key down (wired/built in keyboard) you get the opportunity to use Disk Utility (and others) and can erase the entire drive and then install OS X 10.6.3 Snow Leopard fresh. However this disk is sans-free iLife, but can be reinstalled via the 10.5 machine disks.
    I don't know the specifics of the full version of the Snow Leopard install disks as I never used them, or what particular advantage they have (free iLife?), but if it requires a erase and install, then that's a disadvantage obviously as you can't carry over your already installed 10.5 programs.
    OS X 10.4/10.5 need to upgrade, 10.6.8 ok still

  • EVALUATION PERIOD NOT UPGRADING TO FULL VERSION

    HI
    I am trying to upgrade sql server2008r2 evaluation period to FULL version but while upgrading it showing sql server product key is invalid however sql product key is licensed & orgiginal but the same is not proceeding with this key.
    Please suggest

    Hi,
    Check the Link below. Have you followed the same procedure for upgrade.
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/sqlman/archive/2010/03/16/sql-server-2008-upgrading-to-standard-enterprise-edition-from-evaluation-edition.aspx
    How to: Upgrade to a Different Edition of SQL Server 2008 (Setup) 
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc707783.aspx
    Below are the main steps, using the Setup , edition upgrade wizard.
    Insert the SQL Server installation media. From the root folder, double-click setup.exe or launch the SQL Server Installation Center from Configuration
    Tools. To install from a network share, locate the root folder on the share, and then double-click Setup.exe.
    To upgrade an existing instance of SQL Server 2008 to a different edition, from the SQL Server Installation Center click Maintenance,
    and then select Edition Upgrade.
    If Setup support files are required, SQL Server Setup installs them. If you are instructed to restart your computer, restart before you continue.
    The System Configuration Checker runs a discovery operation on your computer. To continue, click OK.
    On the Product Key page, select a radio button to indicate whether you are upgrading to a free edition of SQL Server, or whether you have a PID
    key for a production version of the product. For more information, see Editions and Components of SQL Server 2008 and Version
    and Edition Upgrades.
    On the License Terms page, read the license agreement, and then select the check box to accept the licensing terms and conditions. To continue,
    click Next. To end Setup, click Cancel.
    On the Select Instance page, specify the instance of SQL Server to upgrade.
    The Edition Upgrade Rules page validates your computer configuration before the edition upgrade operation begins.
    The Ready to Upgrade Edition page shows a tree view of installation options that were specified during Setup. To continue, click Upgrade.
    During the edition upgrade process, the services need to be restarted to pick up the new setting. After edition upgrade, the Complete page provides
    a link to the summary log file for the edition upgrade. To close the wizard, click Close.
    After installation, the Complete page provides a link to the summary log file for the installation and other important notes. To complete the SQL
    Server installation process, click Close.
    If you are instructed to restart the computer, do so now. It is important to read the message from the Installation Wizard when you are done with
    Setup. For information about Setup log files, see How to: View and Read SQL Server Setup Log Files.
    You can also perform the upgrade using command line option, see below SQL BOL topic.
    Command Line option
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms144259.aspx#Upgrade
    Hope this can help save time in upgrading to retail editions of SQL Server from the evaluation edition.
    Note: The
    Evaluation edition of SQL Server is based on the Enterprise Edition and thus it is recommended to upgrade to SQL Server 2008 Enterprise Edition so you can continue to enjoy the many capabilities such as Resource Governor, Database compression, Backup compression,
    Transparent Database encryption, etc.
    Regards, PS
