Should I upgrade from version 6?

I just bought a Nikon D5000 and I would like to start using the RAW support features in photoshop elements and I currently have Photoshop Elements 6.  Is there a significant different in the RAW support between 6 and 8?  Is the raw support in PE decent, or is CS recommended?
Thanks in advance,  Craig

As I understand it The D5000 requires Nikon "AF-S" lenses for autofocus operation. (I'm not quite certain). The operation of the D-40, D-40x, and D-60 is thus.
The D-50, D-70, D-80, and D-90 all have provisions for using the "screw drive" mechanical drive "AF-D" lens in full auto focus operation.
I'm not fully literate in all the D-5000's specs, but if AF-D lens operation is not an issue to you, then go for it. As I understand it, one of the D-X000 series cameras carries the same CMOS sensor as the D-90. The D-90's CMOS sensor is a dramatic improvement over the CCD in the D-80, which is a great camera in it's own right.
As to your original question about the upgrade from PSE-6 to 8, unfortunately I went from PSE-5 to 7, and it might be prudent for me not to put my foot too far in my mouth by presuming an opinion. I do know the general chatter has been that the organizer in PSE-8 "sucks", but here again, that's hearsay. Some "amateur"product reviews reflect the intellect of the reviewer, rather than the utility of the product.
In PSE-8, the organizer is supposed to be compatible with 16 bit files, Windows 7, and a 64 bit OS. If any of these things is in your future, then mabye you should download the trial version and give it a shot. With PSE-8, Elements now requires activation, and doesn't rely on a person's moral compass to limit the installation options

  • 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 …

  • Do i have to upgrade from version 10.6.8 to use icloud on my mac book air?

    do i have to upgrade from version 10.6.8 to use icloud on my mac book air?

    I'm afraid so. The minimum requirement for iCloud is Lion 10.7.5 (Mountain Lion preferred): the iCloud Preference Pane does not appear on earlier systems - the MobileMe pane appears on Lion and earlier but is non non-functional - you cannot now open or access a MobileMe account.
    To make use of iCloud you will have to upgrade your Mac to Lion or Mavericks, provided it meets the requirements.
    The requirements for Lion are:
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    Lion is available in the Online Apple Store ($19.99). Mountain Lion (10.8.x) is also available there at the same price but there seems little point as the system requirements are the same for Mavericks (10.9.x) - which is free - unless you need to run specific software which will run on Mountain Lion only.
    The requirements for Mountain Lion and Mavericks are:
    OS X v10.6.8 or later
    2GB of memory
    8GB of available space
      and the supported models are:
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
    It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
      You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table

  • How do you fix 'unable to upgrade from version 0'?

    I have been working on 6 ibooks over the past year, documenting a lot of stuff for user manuals for our school. The ibooks were all created in iBA version 1.0, but are not published - we only use them internally so we just use the previews.
    I gave up trying to upgrade my 1.0 iBooks, it takes too long to 'optimize' the files when I try to open them in 2.0. I have read all the issues with iBA 2.0, but decided to download 2.0 on another computer and wabt to try to re-write all my old 1.0 manuals (I have all the files that went into them).
    However, when I double-click to open the 2.0, nothing happens. So I go to 'File' and select 'New from Template Chooser'. I then get the window with all the new templates, including the portrait ones. When I select any template, say the 5th one for example, I get the prompt "The document 'Textbook 05.ibatemplate' could not be upgraded. Unable to upgrade from version 0". This happens for every template. I don't understand. I downloaded the 2.0 from the app store onto a 'clean' computer. Yes, it has Lion on it and all the spec requirements to run iBA. Can anyone help me with what to do next?

    Did you ask Apple for help yet?

  • Issues during technical upgrade from  version 4.6C to ECC 6.0

    Dear All,
    We have done a technical upgrade from version 4.6C to ECC 6.0 and encountered following issues -
    In the t-code ABZE (acquisition with in house production) there is a check-box for reversal posting on screen with version 4.6C. However, this field is missing in ECC 6.0. Why so?
    In the report s_alr_87012327, there is a field "only with creation block" in version 4.6C. However, this field is missing in ECC 6.0. Why so?
    Request to kindly suggest the alternative to carry out the same in ECC 6.0.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Dhawal

    Hi Akshya,
    Please find answers below.
    1) 4.6c is NON-UNICODE system, Can I upgrade it into ECC 6.0 UNICODE system?
    Yes you can.
    If you are on a single code page system then you can give a gap between your uprade and unicode conversion. There is no problem with the singlecode upgrade and conversion.
    But if your system is MDMP then you will have to do the CUUC method that is both upgrade and unicode conversion together. Though you can give a gap and sign an disclaimer with SAP it is still not recomended way.
    2) 4.6c does not have any ITS system installed. If we upgrade it to ECC6.0 ABAP only, then Can I activate WAS internal ITS?
    Yes you can activate it.
    3) 4.6c does not have any JAVA stack. When I upgrade it to ECC 6.0, can I upgrade it to dual stack (ABAP+JAVA)? If yes, then how?
    After the upgrade and unicode conversion you can install the java stack.
    Regards,
    Ravi.

  • Can I upgrade from version 10.4.11 to 10.5.8 in order to access mobileme?

    Can I upgrade from version Tiger 10.4.11 to  Leopard 10.5.8 in order to access mobileme?, If so, how would I accomplish this action? I have already created a web site using iweb which came with my I-Mac (3 or 4 years old), and noe need to publish it on mobileme.

    If you machine meets the minimum for Snow Leopard (10.6.x) then it would be easier to buy that. If the machine is capable I'd recommend upgrading to Snow Leopard. It's going to be difficult  and more expensive to get Leopard. Here are the minimum spec's for Snow Leopard:
    General requirements
    Mac computer with an Intel processor
    1GB of memory
    5GB of available disk space
    DVD drive for installation
    Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    Some features require Apple’s MobileMeservice; fees and terms apply.

  • Can I Upgrade from version 5 to the latest?

    Can I upgrade from version 5 ..... want to install on new 64bit machine but have lost CD ..... what are the options.
    Message title was edited by: Brett N

    There is never an upgrade "patch" to change an old version to a new version.  Each version of PSE is an independent, full program installation.
    Your options are:
    Find the best price you can for a "full" version of PSE10 and purchase and install that.
    Wait a while until the new PSE11 is released and purchase and install that.

  • How far should I upgrade from snow leopard

    how far should I upgrade from snow leopard.  I just installed more RAM for a total of 4 GB.
    Thanks

    Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion/Mavericks/Yosemite.
    To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) model number 7,1 or higher
    Your Mac needs:
    OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
    2 GB or more of memory (More is better - 4 GB minimum seems to be the consensus)
    8 GB or more of available space
    Check to make sure your applications are compatible. PowerPC applications are no longer supported after 10.6.      
    Application Compatibility
    Applications Compatibility (2)
    Do a backup before installing. 
    If you can/do upgrade, I recommend you make a copy of the installer and move it out of your Applications folder. The installer self-destructs. The copy will keep you from having to download the installer again.  You can make a bootable USB stick to install using this free program.
    Bootable USB Flash Drive – Diskmaker X
    If your computer isn’t compatible, you might be able to upgrade to Lion. Personal opinion, I'd stay with Snow Leopard rather than Lion.
    Computer Compatibility - Lion                       Lion
