Upgrade from Master Suite CS5.5 to CS6

I currently own the Master Collection CS5.5 for Mac (Running on Mountain Lion OS X 10.8.3). I am not interested in converting to Creative Cloud right now, but would like to upgrade to the Master Collection CS6 for Mac. It appears as though this option is still currently available through Adobe, but does anyone know what the cost is for current students? I have searched the Adobe website, but was unable to find information regarding any pricing for upgrades.

There are no upgrades for student versions. You simply buy the normal commercial upgrade or a full new S&T license of CS6.

There are no upgrades for student editions. You simply buy a fresh license at the discounted price.

Upgrading from After Effects CS5 to CS6

I am creating a new post for this since my previous post on Design Premium was "Answered" yeaterday.
I went ahead and purchased the Creative Suite Design Premium 5.5 Upgrade today which apparently includes a FREE upgrade to CS6 Web & Design Premium Package following its release (i.e. if you pay for the upgrade from 5.0 to 5.5 before May 6th you get a FREE Upgrade to CS6).
Unfortunately Design Premium Suite of products does not include AE so I have always had to purchase that upgrade separately. Am I correct that there is no such similar upgrade incentive for a single product like After Effects CS5 as is being offered on the Design Premium Suite right now?
Regarding my After Effects "standalone" copy, from what I can tell, my upgrade cost to CS6 would be the same as if I had never upgraded to CS5 (i.e. the upgrade price to CS 6 from CS3 or CS4 is the same as upgrading from CS5) - about $350, but if I upgraded to AE_CS5.5 then the jump to CS6 would be about $175, but if I upgrade "now" to AECS5.5, it would be $179 + another $175 when AECS6 comes out - is that right? $179 seems like a fair upgrade price from AE_CS5 to AE_CS6, but $350 is pretty steep for just one product - especially since 5.5 was not a full incremental jump?
Am I missing something? From where I am right now, my only path from AE_CS5 to AE-CS6 is about $350? (i.e. about the same price as being forced into the entire Cloud Subscription the first year?). Also, about the same as what I paid today to get ALL my other CS5 Apps upgraded to CS6 in total.

Problem : Have Master Suite CS5 and CS6 on same PC... CS5 defaulting to CS6

I have a number of Premiere CS5 projects on my PC... I've installed a trial of Master Suite CS6 and all my CS5 projects are opening in CS6.. which I don't want.
Any suggestions on how I can have them open in CS5 again? I'd prefer to have the Premiere, After Effects and Photoshop files all open in CS5 if that is what I created them in. I've been told I can both CS5 and CS6 on the same machine without problems. Thanks for any input.

Windows file assocations are set according to the last program installed

Doubts about upgrading from Production Premium CS5 to CS6

— I actually have CS5 Production Premium installed on my iMac
— I recently ordered the upgrade from CS5 to CS5.5 just to have a free path from CS5.5 to CS6 (but I never installed that CS5.5 on my system)
— Now, with the CS6 installer on my hand, I'm ready to update to CS6, directly from CS5.
First question, just to be sure: this updater will REMOVE the previous CS5 version, converting it to CS6?
Second question (since I'm almost sure that the updater will “add” a new version, CS6, maintaining the previous CS5): it's secure to preserve that old CS5 version side by side to the new CS6 on the same computer?
(I ask this, in prevision, because I plan to maintain CS5 and CS6 for some time, just to have a “lifeguard” in the case that I could suffer some stability problem with the recent launched version).
Thanks for your support :-)

Thanks for your quick answer, Manish.
Hmmm, that sentence “…you may face issue while installing hence have a look on that…” sounds a bit disturbing, to be sincere :-/
You mean, maybe, that it would be better and safer to delete CS5 before installing CS6, in order to avoid possible installation problems?
I'm sorry if I seem too afraid, but I would prefer to make a clean and peaceful transition, since I am in the middle of some projects…
Thanks again for your advices :-)

I want to upgrade from Photoshop Extended CS5 to PS Extended CS6 (I do NOT want CC) but have been unable to find this at a sensible price (or sometimes at all). Help, anyone please?

I want to upgrade from Photoshop Extended CS5 to PS Extended CS6 Mac (I do NOT want CC) but have been unable to find this at a sensible price (or sometimes at all). Help, anyone please? This is in UK, btw!

What do you consider a sensible price? PS CS6 extended is available only when you purchase the CS6 Suite, which is around $1000 for the upgrade from CS5. PS 6, which is not extended, is about $200, but I'm not sure about upgrading to a single app from a suite. Adobe used to allow it, but I'm not sure about now. PS CC and Lightroom 5 combo is $9.99 a month or PS CC alone for $19.99 or the whole CC suite for $29 a month. The latest CC apps are "extended."

Upgrade pricing for Master Suite CS5

Over the years and recently, I have purchased the following products:
1. Dreamweaver, followed by Studio 8
2. PhotoShop CS, and CS2
3. Adobe Acrobat Pro (Latest version!)
4. Flash (Flex) Builder 4 Premium
After having owned all these products, Adobe still wants me to buy a full version of Master Suite CS5, and won't offer the upgrade pricing for it. That seems too harsh, and is honestly discouraging me from purchasing any of their products.
I completely understand that one cannot upgrade to CS5 suites based on a single product. But I have several of their products, and like them. I simply fail to understand why they won't allow upgrades when someone owns legit multiple products. Why would I buy a whole suite and duplicate products. Why not let users upgrade into a suite with multiple (single) products? 3, 4, 5, however many they can figure out would be equitable.
Thoughts, thanks!

From Studio 8 you can upgrade to the Master Collection for $1,245 at Amazon: http://amzn.to/bgy53K
You won't get a better deal than that.

Can I upgrade from Creative Suite 3 to Photoshop CS5?

I have purchased Photoshop CS5 upgrade expecting to be able to upgrade from Creatvie Suite 3 Web Premium, but it doesn't accept the serial number. I don't need or use the other products in Web Premium anymore, but do use photoshop. Is this not possible??

From the doc:Upgrade, upsell paths | CS5, CS5.5 | Single-user products
"Adobe doesn't offer an upgrade from a suite product to a single point product. If you purchased a point product upgrade, and your previous version is a suite, contact us for assistance. (The point product upgrade won't recognize the serial number from the suite.)"

Upgrade from creative suite 4 Production to CS5 extended

I've just ordered the upgrade cs5 extended upgrade. I've bought in april
(via my vendor) the creative suite 4 production premium. The support tells me now via chat that is unpossible to upgrade from the suite to cs5 photoshop ? So i have to buy the full photoshop version or the full suite version ? Is that true ? How ridiculous is that ?
grtz.

Yes, what Support told you was right -- per Adobe's Creative Suite FAQ, you can only upgrade from suite to suite, not from suite to individual product...
This is likely because of the discounted pricing of Adobe's suite offerings - for example, the price of the Production Premium bundle is about 65%-off the cost of its component products if purchased separately.
They probably also want to encourage the use of the same or more of their products going forward, rather than fewer.

I cant install adobe master collection cs5 or cs6 in maverick 10.9.4

i cant install adobe master collection cs5 or cs6 in maverick 10.9.4, i cant install, the instalation stop in 4% in adobehelp ... any idea?

I can't get into the installation menu. The third CD does work correctly, i'm not sure about the second CD. Is it possible that the CD is broken? Like maybe there is one file missing or something I don't know.

Upgrading from CS3 to CS5.5 Design Premium??

Hi there, I work for a small print company and we are in the process of upgrading from CS3 to CS5.5 Design premium, the company has purchased a new Mac (runs Lion 10.7), our old Mac is on 10.4 and it has run CS2 upgrade, and a few years back we installed the CS3 upgrade. We have not installed any of the creative suite onto the new Mac and I am wondering can I just buy the CS5.5 upgrade and use the CS3 upgrade serial number when installing? Will this be enough?
Or do I need to go back to the initial Creative Suite that the company brought from scratch and enter that serial number?
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!

Just have the serial number from CS3 handy when you install.
More good news for you. Starting today if you buy CS5.5 you get a free upgrade to CS6 when it ships.

Upgrading from MX2004 to CS5

I bought Master Suite CS5 a while ago and love/use many parts of it but have not yet switched to the CS5 replacement for Dreamweaver MX2004 and this is despite that older Dreamweaver tool being probably the software product I use most often and on most days for event updates etc.
As it really is time I switched and have some time now I can use to retrain myself a first numpties question - is there a way you can configure the screen layout etc., to look like, or even vagulely like, the old easy to use MX2004 screen?
I ask as I find the new (to me) screen layout in the CS5 version clunky with few of the tools I use most conveniently visible unlike, for example the excellent set in Photoshop. I am sure this question would have been asked when Adobe took over from Macromedia but I must be putting the wrong words into search as I can't find any answers on easing the path from Macromedia style Dreamweaver to the new Adobe screen layouts. The Adobe training videos don't seem to help much on this topic either but I am rewatching them again.

First of all, I think you'll get used to it. I went from MX to CS3 and it really didn't feel all that different. I generally work in "split" view. CS 5, I think, introduced an horizontal "split" view and I prefer the vertical. Under "View" you can choose a vertical split.
One thing I didn't like in the upgrade from CS3 to CS5.5 (which I use presently) is the panels for CSS styles, Files, Assets and so on are all the way over to the right hand side of one's screen. There's no real way to fix that, so I have to hide the application a little more to get to certain things. But those panels disappear when the focus is off Dreamweaver and on to something else.
Fact is, HTML and CSS code is what it is and you should be mainly focused on that. I do like hte Live View mode and the Live Code mode of CS 5.5—it is a quicker way to check my work than opening a browser (but I still do final checks in browsers). So the learning curve is not extreme.
One thing you should do is hang on to MX. MX will do inline coding styles for HTML emails and CS 3 and above won't, preferring either an inline style sheet or a separate style sheet over the inline styles you would need for an email.

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):

You won't be able to buy CS5 from Adobe (not that you'd have any reason to).

Can I upgrade to Master Collection CS5.5 without uninstalling Design Premium CS3

Hi,
I work for a company that has offices worldwide, but do not have the budget to upgrade all licences which is why I need to keep InDesign/Illustrator CS3.
I wish to switch from Final Cut Express to Adobe Premier Pro/After Effects (I don't like the new Final Cut Pro X - for many reasons)
Can I upgrade to Master Collection CS5.5 without uninstalling Design Premium CS3?
Many Thanks,
Sandeep
(iMac 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 10.6.8)

Absolutely. The upgrade won't touch the earlier version.
Make sure you buy the right upgrade. Here's a link to it on Amazon: http://amzn.to/oRnKh4

Upgrading from CS3 to CS5

I purchased Photoshop CS5 upgrade. When I enter the CS3 serial number (Adobe CS 3 Design Standard) I receive the notice that the serial number is valid, but a qualifying product cannot be found on my computer. Why is the upgrade not able to find my CS3 copy?

Thank you for your reply, Jeff. I did enter the CS5 serial number, and when prompted entered CS3, as my original, (the updating product) followed by that serial number. It was at that point I received the message that the serial number was valid, but a qualifying product cannot be found on my computer. I have read elsewhere that one cannot upgrade from a suite to an application. Have I made a 'financial error' and purchased the wrong product? Sue

You would first be entering the Photoshop CS5 serial number followed by your eligible product. If the serial number is valid then it should not be also searching for a qualifying product.
