Student edition use in the future?

I'm planning on purchasing the Student/teacher edition of Photoshop CS6. I would be installing it on my laptop to use for the next year or so. If I get a desktop computer after I graduate, would I be able to install the software on that computer? I know that it can be installed on 2 devices, but once I'm not a student anymore....?

Yes, you can keep on using STE software after you graduate.
http://prodesigntools.com/difference-between-adobe-cs5-student-editions-vs-regular.html
"Since Creative Suite 5, all Student and Teacher Editions can be utilized for personal as well as commercial use, for all academic customers worldwide. So yes, you can sell your services or anything you create, or use these products in developing a side business or online venture. And after graduation or completion of coursework, you can continue to use the perpetual software on your personal systems; there is no usage expiration and those tools will continue to work."
The real, practical differences between the STE and full commercial versions are some of the licensing conditions, as explained in that article e.g. you cannot resell the software, it can only be used on your own personal computer and you're not eligible for special deals such as the Photoshop Photography Program https://creative.adobe.com/plans/offer/photoshop+lightroom
Be aware also that, like all perpetually licensed Adobe software, the STE version comes with a platform specific serial number: Windows only or Mac only. So your future desktop must run the same operating system as your current laptop.
Cloud versions of the software run on both Mac and/or Windows since they're authenticated via your Adobe ID - no serial number is involved.

  • How do I properly archive or save projects so they could be used in the future

    Help would be greatly appreciated
    How do I properly archive or save projects so they could be used in the future, but yet delete or trash the events folder they came from, to clear hard drive space

    Hi to all of you Seniors and one junior [i.e. the the OP who started this thread]. I feel that this thread is a very vital subject relevant to practical and economical 'creativity oriented videography'!!!
    As a newcomer I always have tried to have a grasp over this matter and the insecurity of 'incomplete knowledge' has been a constant mental niggle.
    May I tell you that I have been struggling to 'hear' what I am now 'hearing' in this present discussion for over the past 10 months and have not been able to!!!
    I shout out a million cheers to all the participants, OP included, involved in this thread.
    May I request that this discussion be not allowed to die down but be used as a guidepost for all folks, especially those whose primary work is videography? By the time the this thread comes to an end, every reader should be able to make an 'informed and learned' decision of how to economically and safely preserve his work.
    Salty's observation regarding opting for SD looks attractive just because of the lack of a suitable [read economical] means of having your work in HD...but, if in the coming days, were there to be any pathbreaking discoveries in terms of data storage, and hugh capacity drives are available at 'throwaway prices' would we not for the rest of our lives regret having done our works in SD?
    Appleman's foray into this common problem, as to how it should be tackled, needs to be greatly lauded. Tom Wolsky's precise observations which obviate the need to check out and painfully realize some of the errors in Appleman's hypothesis neccessitate that the laurels, as usual, be handed over to him.
    Now having said what I felt after reading through this thread, I would like these clarifications:
    1] what is meant by having a backup of 'currentevent.fcpevent.'? How do we go about it. Where are we to store it? After doing this 'backup' can the 'currentevent.fcpevent.' file be deleted from the event folder?
    2] Some word of enlightenment regarding the meaning and usage of 'event metadata '...i.e. say after 3 years of having the 'projected related event data' in cold storage, were one have the need to put his project back again on to the timeline for further editing...what are the exact steps which one should take?

  • Purchased Teacher and Student edition, but with the trial expired, I cannot use any products?

    I bought the Teacher and Student edition (one year plan, prepaid), but after the trial expired, I cannot use any products. It asks for a serial number, which to the best of my knowledge, I never received. Is there something I missed?
    Thanks in advance.

    Trimatirate you will need to locate the serial number you received with your license to use the software for a year.  If it is registered then it will be available under your account at http://www.adobe.com/.  You can find additional details at Find your serial number quickly - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html.

  • Student Edition Use Query

    Hi all.
    Just a query really.
    I've got Adobe Creative Suite Web Premium Student Edition, purchased recently.
    I'm starting a business with 2 mates, I'm still technically a student and im going to uni in a years time. As you may know, being in a business in the early years is a far from lucrative time.
    My query is, using Creative Suite student edition, is it illegal for me to use things such as photoshop, dreamweaver to make sites for clients?
    It really annoys me as when I purchased it I did a bit of research and I want to do everything legally, by the book.
    Obviously if I cant use this legally, my business is over. There is no way I can pay out £1400 now for this, although in the future if I ever did get my business off the ground I hopefully could.
    Please let me know where I stand with this.
    Thanks, Fred.

    Thank you both of you for taking the time out to help me.
    After researching a bit, i've found the FAQ here
    http://www.adobe.com/uk/education/purchasing/faq.html
    It says:
    [[[Student question
    "I'm very interested in buying the Education version of Adobe Creative Suite, but first I want to know if the software can be used to produce work for paying customers once I am working in the industry, or do I have to buy a different version of Creative Suite once I'm working in the industry?
    Answer
    Good news! You can use Adobe Education software (any title!) to produce commercial/professional paid-for work when you leave school, or even while you are in school. In this regard, Adobe does not limit how student software is used. So students can use it to learn and to make money!]]]
    Thank goodness for that! I really didnt know how I was going to continue this business if I had to fork out another £1400.
    The relief felt there was massive.

  • What is the best way to properly activate the Lightroom Student Edition? Is the Student Edition a permanent program or does it deactivate after 2-4 years like some other programs that are student versions?

    I just purchased the student edition of Lightroom! I am very excited to use it and start creating beautifully edited photos but I'm a little unsure about a few things. It says I have to prove my eligibility to use the student edition which won't be an issue but what is the quickest and easiest way to submit this proof? Also I am concerned that the student edition will be temporary and I will have bought this program only to have it expire at the end of 4 years like some other programs that are student versions. Is the student edition of Lightroom a permanent program that I will have for life or will it deactivate after I graduate?

    When I purchased my academic version of Lightroom, it was a package set. Inside was a yellow card with the instructions on how to verify that I qualified for the academic discount. I submitted my academic e-mail address and other info as requested on that yellow card. Within 5 min. I received my serial number. Very straightforward. I had no problems whatsoever.
    There is only one version of the Lightroom program itself. The only difference is in the licensing and pricing. If you qualify for the academic discount, by all means use it. You are purchasing the same Lightroom program that anyone else does. It doesn't expire, there are no missing features, and it can be upgraded when new major versions are released. Those upgrades will cost the same as they cost for any other person, regardless of how they purchased Lightroom.
    You can confidently move ahead with obtaining your serial number. The only thing you are doing differently is paying a lower initial purchase price because of your academic status.

  • How do I export a video so I can still edit it in the future and have all data (no compression)

    I am super new to Premiere Elements and video in general so my question is probably a no brainer.  I am taking parts of a video and exporting them out so I can come back later and edit them.  When I try this the dimension is changing even though I'm checking 1080x720.  It's also losing quality.   I'm a wedding photographer (not videoagrapher) and don't know the correct terminology to use.  This is for a family wedding I did where I also experimented with video.  Basically what I would like to do is take the "raw" clips and grab the scenes I want, export them and bring them back at a future time and edit them without losing quality.
    I have tried researching this and am so frustrated.  I just can't figure this out.  Thank you in advance to anyone who can point me in the right direction. 

    clarkiek
    Thanks for the reply. From your screenshot, I cannot be sure if you are using Premiere Elements 12 or 11 (very similar) on Windows. So, for now I will assume Premiere Elements 12 on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit.
    From your screenshot, it would appear that your source is
    1920 x 1080 @ 23.976 progressive frames per second
    So, you or the project should have set a project preset of
    NTSC
    DSLR
    1080p
    DSLR 1080p24
    If the program was allowed to set the project preset based on the properties of the first video drag from Project Assets to Timeline, we can find out if it did it "right". Sometimes it does not. To do this...Edit Menu/Project Settings/General. And, if the Project Settings look like the following screenshot, the program set the project preset correctly:
    If you do not see the above, then new project whose project preset you set manually before you import your video.
    To do that...
    In Expert workspace, File Menu/New/Project and Change Settings.
    Change Settings to NTSC/DSLR/1080p/DSLR1080p24
    Before exiting that area, be sure to have a check mark next to "Force Selected Project Settings on This Project" in the new project dialog.
    Now the big question, what to export this TImeline to so that the export will be part of a family of exports to joint a grand project. If you know that all you want as the destination is NTSC DVD-VIDEO Widescreen on DVD disc, then you can export each TImeline as a DV AVI Widescreen file (Publish+Share/Computer/AVI with Presets = DV NTSC Widescreen. When all is said and done, all these DV AVI Widescreen files will be imported in a new Premiere Elements 12 NTSC DV Widescreen project for burn to with Publish+Share/Disc/DVD disc with NTSC _Widescreen_Dolby DVD preset.
    Alternative way, if you had HD plans for this edited video on this Timeline, could be
    a. Project Preset - set as before 1920 x 1080p24
    b. Export as Publish+Share/Computer/AVCHD with Presets = MP4 - H.264 1920 x 1080 p24
    c. Combine all the individual .mp4 into one grand project (project preset = 1920 x 1080p24) with a destination for
    DVD-VIDEO Widescreen on DVD disc
    or
    AVCHD format on DVD disc
    or
    Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc.
    You wrote
    In mpeg I used preset HDTV 1080p 29.97 high quality and it seems to save it just fine.  But can I bring these files back in and edit with non-destructive editing?
    This would be a Publish+Share/Computer/MPEG choice (MPEG2 HD.mpg 1920 x1080p29.97 versus what I described as an alternative Publish+Share/Computer/AVCHD choice (AVCHD.mp4 1920 x 1080p24). The project preset for the grand project might be:
    for 1920 x 1080p29.97, NTSC/DSLR/1080p/DSLR1080p30 @ 29.97
    for 1920 x 1080p24, NTSC/DSLR/1080p/DSLR1080p24
    Irrespective of the frame rate along the line, in the end, burn to presets are standarded at @29.97 interlaced frames per second.
    Please review and consider. If I did not explain clearly enough, please let me know, and I will rewrite if need be.
    Thanks.

  • After the edit - saving for the future

    I have been editing for several years on 6.5 and more recently CS3. I have typically finished the project, done an edit export and master of the video, then blown everything on the hard drives away.
    I have come to a point where I'd prefer to save something/everything that would allow me to restore and re-edit should it be needed. Has anyone else done this? Is an EDL the answer? Appreciate any feedback and instruction you can offer about this.
    Thanks,
    John

    Here is what I have done. You should have a dedicated internal drive for your production files. Mine is and always will be drive 'P'. Before I start a project I go to the computer store and buy two HDD. One 500gb internal and on 500gb external usb (I use My Book). I label and store the existing internal drive and replace that with a clean one for the new project. I also replace the My Book drive used to back it up each day with the new My Book.
    Each day I use SyncToy to freshen the backup of the internal production drive on the external usb drive. It takes very little time once you are only copying daily changes.
    When the project is over I archive the project to a third location (my documents) using the project manager and replace both of the drives with fresh drives for the next project. I label finished project drives and put one in my fireproof save (the internal HDD) and store the My Book one at an offsite location. This costs about $225 per project.
    This seems to me to be a small price to pay.
    One caution: Make sure that all of your assets are stored an accessed from that internal drive or you may find them missing when you try to reload.
    Just my two cents.

  • Upgrade to Adobe CC with the conditions of the "special offer" (35,69€ / year) with an old registered CS5 Students Edition?

    Hi!
    I just tried to update my Adobe Creative Suite to Adobe CC. I have a registered CS5.5 Master Collection from 2012 that I bought while studying (Students Edition).
    On the Adobe Website I can choose the CC as a special offer and a price o 35,69€ per year. When my Serial is checked they say that I'm not allowed to use this special offer.
    Does anybody know what's the problem? Can't I use the special offer with the old serial of a student's edition?
    Thank's for your help!
    Best!!!

  • Using ms office 2008 for mac home & student edition with snow leopard serv

    Hi all,
    I have a very particular question.
    I have a new small business starting up and we want to make full use of leopard and snow leopard server in our infrastructure. We also want to use os x for all our client machines.
    We want to use ms office 2008 for mac as our main offfice software but i believe we don't need all the uses or festures of the business edtion and i need to seek good advice and clarity on this.
    We won't ever use any microsoft exchange servers but instead willl use the apple mail servers and all the other apple server services.
    My question is, based on the fact that we will have an all apple mac os x backend and client frontend but want to use the ms office for mac as our business software, and also based on the fact that we wont use the "Build your Brand clip art, Build your skills by lynda.com, the Remote Desktop for mac 2, the Microsoft Exchange Server Support and the Microsoft Windows sharepoint services support, do we really need to go for the business edition? Can we not just use the home and student edition and get the same functionality using everything else apart form what we listed as we wont need these?
    The other question is, the Entourage 2008, Web services Edition, will this work with an apple backend instead of ms exchange server?
    Kind regards and thanks for your wise advice,
    Neil Watson

    Thanks, Kurt--I understand now. 
    One reason I was alarmed was that evidently when the tech installed Office 2008, something went awry with either the key installer or the key code, because when I finished the first two updates (12.1 and 12.2), I tried to open Entourage to see if the problem I'd been having was resolved. Instead of opening, Office gave me a message that my product key was invalid!  I did find the product key, and called the tech, who will come by to see what's wrong (he's an honest guy, so I'm sure it's a legitimate error of some kind, not a pirated copy). But the thought of installing two pages of updates and maybe running into the same glitch every time made me blanch.  So I'm glad to know that Microsoft is still doing Service Packs for 2008!

  • If I bought the creative cloud student edition today can I exchange it for something else?

    Please read
    To clarify, I bought the Creative Cloud student edition today cause I needed illistrator for a class asap and there were also some other programs I wanted and I couldnt afford to buy them all seperatly. Thats why I bought creative cloud but then a couple hours later I find that the CS6 production premium student edition has all the programs I initially wanted. After crunching some numbers I relized that I should of bought that instead of the creative cloud because I would of ended up paying a lot more for contiuous years of using it where as if I get the Cs6 production premium then I could save myself alot of money which I dont really have alot of already. So I guess what im asking is can I cancel my subscription that I just bought today and get the CS6 production premium stedent edition without haveing to pay the 50%? or what is the best way for me to go about this where I lose the least amount of money? I have looked through the help forums and tried my best to find the answers or help I need but couldn't. I dont mean to waste anyone time with my sob story but any help would be appreciated

  • How is the Student Edition different?

    Hello,
    I am a college student and while browsing my university software store I noticed they had Adobe Creative Suite 4: Web Premium Student Edition. I was wondering what makes the student edition different from the premium set?  Is the education set the premium set just with some learning stuff?
    Thank you for all the help.
    I am sorry if this is not in the right forum.

    So I could only put it on one computer.  So I cannot put it on say my desktop and laptop?
    The terms of the licence say this: "A Student Edition can be used on only one computer." One computer means precisely that: ONE computer.
    What about partitions?  Currently I have two harddrives on one system.  One runs XP and the other runs the Windows 7 beta.  Technically they are both on one machine so can I install it to both harddrives?
    You would need to ask Adobe technical support about that. The licence says you can't "transfer or resell ownership of the Adobe Student Edition license." That seems to suggest that only one person can use it.
    I have a full retail licence (not a student one), and Dreamweaver lets me use two separate user accounts on the same machine (they're both me, but the computer doesn't know that). Since my student days were over many moons ago, I have no way of testing whether Dreamweaver can be used on separate partitions. The sensible thing to do is to install it on the partition that you use most. However, you should be aware that Windows 7 is still a beta. No Adobe software is guaranteed to run on it (it probably does, but there's no guarantee).
    To avoid any doubt, this is a user-to-user forum. The information provided by me (or anyone else so far in this thread) does NOT come from Adobe employees. We have provided you in good faith with what we believe to be the correct information as it currently stands. If you have any further questions about the terms of the student licence, you should contact Adobe directly.
