Upgrade cs5 to cs5.5

how do i upgrade CS5 to CS5.5 on a mac I have the application already

Hi GBnoble,
You can remove the older version and install the newer CS5.5 version if you have the installation media.
Keep both the serial numbers handy, the old version as the newer one as the installer will prompt to enter the same fo activation.

Upgrade paths from cs5 to cs5.5

Hello,
I just got off the phone with customer service. I upgraded from CS4 to CS5 in late December. I would like to upgrade InDesign from CS5 to the 5.5 version. I was told this isn't an option because I own the suite.
This perplexes me since I have purchased many, many single items from Adobe in the past--from Pagemaker 3 pretty much on. Is it really true that once I went to CS2 I abandoned my rights to upgrade individual products?
It seems a bit unreasonable, after spending $600 at the end of last year, that now, three months later, I need to spend another $400 just to update one program. Am I missing something?
I am posting here because the representative I spoke with had a really, really hard time understanding English and I'm not sure he even got my question. It took him over a half hour just to find my account and verify that I had a registered version of Design Premium. He told me that part of the problem was that I have purchased so many Adobe (and Macromedia) products over the past 15 years that I now have four accounts and that it was not possible to consolidate all my software under one single account. This also sounds very odd. HELP!
Thanks!
Ruth

I looked into crossgrading. The whole thing was a comedy of errors. My new custom built super-charged PC developed an un-diagnoasable software error, and then got stolen after being sent in for repaired. At the time, it seemed like my best option was to start the migration from Windows, buy a Mac laptop, get software to run on it, yet still keep my Windows options open in case the PC was found. I was using a backup PC to keep work on schedule.
I used one of my Macromedia cross-platform suite products to upgrade to the Mac CS3 suite. So it wasn't as expensive as it could have been. In hindsight, yes, I should have just abandoned the PC and crossgraded. But I was very fearful after all the computer issues I had encountered that I would have problems with one or the other of the two computers and I felt I needed some redundancy just to ensure I didn't have more downtime.
I'll look through the Adobe site for a license transfer form. When I called several months ago, the agent, made it sound like these were very difficult to come by. Or perhaps, the agent just didn't know. I've ran into this several times with Adobe. One agent tells you one thing, another says something entirely different. Customer service is lacking in my opinion.

CS5 to CS5.5 Upgrade. Will it work on CS3?

CompUSA has a Product Upgrade from CS5 to CS5.5.
Will it work on CS3?
http://www.compusa.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=282844&CatId=5514
Thanks so much!
I don't want to purchase the upgrade, only to find out that it won't work.
Jim

No, it won’t work.
Buy the CS3 to CS5.5 upgrade and you’ll save 10% and get a free upgrade to CS6 when it ships.

Can't find this info anywhere... Can I upgrade from CS3 to CS5 or CS5.5?

After using Adobe products for years and years, it's not only my opinion but the opinion of many of my colleagues that CS upgrades are only worth it about every other upgrade. That might be a subjective opinion, but it does lead in to my question: Does anyone know if I can upgrade from CS3 to CS5 or CS5.5?? I can't find that info anywhere on Adobe's site.
Thanks!

Does anyone know if I can upgrade from CS3 to CS5 or CS5.5??
The Adobe Buying Guide clearly states that the answer for CS3 to CS5.5 is yes.
Design Premium example (other Creative Suites are the same):
http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/design/buying-guide.displayTab2.html
You won't be able to buy CS5 from Adobe (not that you'd have any reason to).

I want to upgrade to CS6 Production Premium suite from CS5.5. Can I use CS6 upgrade made for CS5, or do I have to use upgrade that specifically states for CS5.5.

I have justed upgraded CS2 to CS5. How do I set artboard crop or trim marks for printing?

I have justed upgraded CS2 to CS5. How do I set artboard crop or trim marks for printing? It was under the "OBJECTS" menu in CS2, but I can't find it in CS5.

it actually works the same way but better you don't see it that way but with perhaps more experience you might catch on and say "oh now I see that' all I have to do.
Multiple artboards, which you did not have in CS 2 , changes the equation.
When you open a new document you can set up a gangup in the new document dialog then say for a business card then do one business card in the first one.
Then copy the art and text of that first one and in one command paste that art in all of the artboards with one command, you can then make another artboard that encompasses all the artboards and you now have a gang up say six up you can now print all a once as a gang up or print a range of the artboards or specific artboards.
As a matter of fact now that you can paste on all artboards with one command AI CS 5 actually has a step and repeat feature that works verticaly and horizontally at the same time. And an improved version is easily had.
Also since you probably know how many you need of this first artboard then you can simply make one rectangle for for the first artboard and give it a crop area effect and when you do your copy include the rectangle and then paste on all artboards and there you are
look at the video, see how cool. less complicated not more complicated. And as other users explore this function I bet they come up with even better ideas.
http://mysite.verizon.net/wzphoto/Artboards.mov
I am going to make one adjustment here instead of doing a command c to copy the first artboard it would be better to do a command x to cut the first one since the command paste on all artboard does exactly that. So if you do a command c and a command option shift v then you have two rectangles and art and crop marks pasted on top of each other. Probably won't do any harm but might be confusing in the layers panel.

Upgrading from Photoshop CS5 to Photoshop CC

I'm an amateur photographer and home user of Photoshop CS5. The last full version of Photoshop I purchased was CS2; since then I've upgraded periodically, and I'm now using CS5. At the same time, I've replaced my PC several times, and managed to install Photoshop each time. The copy currently installed on my PC is the CS5 upgrade.
When I purchased this current PC about a year ago, I had some difficulty installing and registering the program, and I wound up calling Adobe tech support. (The difficulty involved the fact that the only full version I had was the old CS2). They led me through a process that eventually enabled me to use CS5 on this PC.
Now I'm strongly considering moving up to Photoshop CC which, unless I misread something, includes Lightroom for desktop and mobile, plus Photoshop CC. My questions are as follows:
Is there any upgrade path from CS5 to CC? I figure it can't hurt to ask, in case I can save some money on the upgrade.
What is the preferred procedure for installing CC on a computer with CS5 installed? Should I uninstall CS5 before installing CC to guarantee a "clean" installation? I don't have a whole lot of preferences or saved settings to be concerned about, so that's not an issue.
--Larry

There is no reason to uninstall CS5 unless you have no reason to keep it. Below is a link to a page that shows the various subscription plans available. There is one that is a special rate for Photoshop and Lightroom. I do not think CS5 qualifies you for a further discount on that package, but there is a special rate for another package if you are a CS owner.

Upgrade CS CS2 CS5 Ok?

Im installing a new system with Snow Leopard.
Im have a couple of older CS upgrades that I would like to upgrade to CS5.
From that I have read in this forum, installing CS2 may not work on Snow Leopard.
The advice I read was to type the CS2 serial number during installation of CS5.
I have the following products:
Adobe Design Collection (Photoshop 7, Acrobat 5, Illustrator 10 etc..)
Adobe Creative Suite Premium Upgrade
Adobe Creative Suite 2 Premium Upgrade
Will the CS5 Upgrade (from CS2/CS3) work in practise with these upgrades? Should I type all the serial numbers in a particular order? Or is it enough to type the serial number for the CS2 upgrade?
Another question; The previous upgrades were Swedish language. I would like to install the English version of CS5. Is that possible or do I have to install the Swedish CS5 upgrade?
Very grateful if someone can provide answers for these questions!
/ Martin

The serial number is enough. I don't know what the implications of the Swedish to English version are.

Photoshop CS5 and CS5 Extended upgrade confusion

Hello,
I recently upgraded to Photoshop CS5 from CS2 in the last couple of weeks as I was in need of a program to edit videos in and wanted to upgrade my Photoshop anyways. However, I soon realized that you cannot edit videos in CS5 and it is instead CS5 Extended that I needed. Unfortunate, I know. Should have done my research .
If I wished to have Extended now, is upgrading YET AGAIN from regular CS5 the only option I have or is there some other option to switch what I bought, pay the difference, and get what I needed in the first place?
Thanks!

There is no "swap", indeed you'd have to buy a sidegrade. But frankly, and I really don't mean to be rude, "editing" videos in Photoshop? Seriously? Unless your kind of editing focuses on paint-centric stuff like rotoscoping or artsy effects or you do animatzed web banners at most, this is slightly more than insane. PS doesn't deal with even some basic stuff that's commonly associated with video/ film processing and even Premiere Elements can do many things better not to speak of the "big" Premiere, After Effects and other such tools.

Photoshop CS6 Extended upgrade from Photoshop CS5 Extended

I am running the Teacher/Student edition of Photoshop CS5 and plan to up grade to Photoshop CS6 Extended non- eacher/Student edition. Will the be any complications with this upgrad.

Hi Jerry,
While upgrading you should maintain the same form of licenses, which is if you haveretail CS5 then do get the retail upgrade of CS6,
If the cs5 version is volume then do get the volume upgrade. Please refer to this link for the upgrade path,

Uninstalling PS CS4 Extended after upgrading to PS CS5 Extended

I finally acclimated to my upgraded to PS CS5 Extended after transferring over presets, brushes, actions, etc and decided to uninstall CS4. Of course now when I open CS5, I receive an error message indicating the some of the support files are missing and I need to reinstall PS CS5. Since this was an upgrade from CS4 that is no longer on the computer, do I need to reinstall CS4 and then reinstall the upgrade to CS5? Or is there a way to simply reinstall CS5 and be done with it? Since this was an upgrade purchased via download, and I deleted the disk image, where do I find the download for the upgrade? Any help or suggestions are much appreciated.

All Adobe updates are full installers.
If the update installer does not find a qualifying prior version installed, it will simply prompt you for the old serial number as well as the new one.

I am trying to download CS5.5, which I purchased. But I can only find the upgrade software to download. Where is the non-upgrade version of CS5.5???

There is no upgrade version. The serial number that you use dictates whether or not the software is treated as an upgrade. If you purchased it as an upgrade then the serial number you have is an upgrade serial number and that will require you to provide proof that you qualify ro install/use the upgrade.
