Upgrade or Full Version-Photoshop Elements

It appears that the upgrade to Photoshop Elements 12 is more expensive than the full version.  Is there any reason I shouldn't just purchase the full version?  Will my files transfer?

Thank you. After a frustrating conversation with sales at Adobe ( wanted to sell me a subscription) I found the full version download even cheaper at Amazon.
Thanks for your help.

  • My full version photoshop elements 12 suddenly became a trial version. Help needed

    I have installed my full version photoshop elements 12 via my dvd installer from mediamarkt and after 2 days...i cannot launch photoshop elements and says that my trial version has expired.  I tried to uninstall and install the software 3 times.  The fourth time I downloaded the Photoshop Elements Trial Version from Adobe website and used my serial number.  Still it did not work and it continues to say that TRIAL VERSION HAS EXPIRED. Can anybody help me? Thanks.

    Dear Barbara,
    Thank you so much for responding.  Yes, my OS is Windows. I will go through this and will let you know what happens. 
    Best regards,

  • I need the full version of Elements 10 not an upgrade version.

    Does it require other software to be installed? If so what are the requirements? If not what is teh cost of the full product?

    Upgrade and Full versions feature wise are similar.
    The difference comes while installation.
    If you have Upgraded version , then while installation you will prompted to enter the serial for the previous version so that we can verify that you actually purchased the previous version.
    If you have Full version, then previous version serial key is of no concern.

  • I upgraded to Premiere and Photoshop Elements 12 on 23rd September

    I upgraded to Premiere and Photoshop Elements 12 on 23rd September from Premiere elements 4.
    Issue 1
    Two days later Elements 13 comes out so I am immediately out of date and would need to pay the same amount again if I want to upgrade to 13.   That's a bit unkind isn't it?
    A warning to wait a couple of days to upgrade would have been a bit nicer customer care. No?
    Issue 2
    A further problem that's blocking me though - I upgraded by download and now can't install it to my home computer because all the links are to download 13 - where can I get a download of 12 now??
    Andrew in the UK.

    Hi Barbara,
    Thanks very much for that link I will use it.   An upgrade would be very welcome and would cheer me up a lot.
    Meanwhile, here is someone in the same position who seems to think there's a 30 free upgrade window.  I will check that out.

    I installed an ancient version, photoshop element 2, on PC under Windows 7 after change of computer station and it is impossible to register modification made; error message: impossible because saturated disc ....what is not the case: many space on the disc. How to repair this error please?

    Hello
    Thank you for your answer which is interesting because it is a disk of 2 TB... If I create a partition do you think it can solve my problem? I prefer this old version of Photoshop, very practical to use...

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • Upgrading using a full version of Elements on cd

    I have Elements version 6 on my computer.  I just bought a FULL version 11 on cd.  How do I install 11 on my computer and transfer all my photos from version 6 over to version 11?

    Try using the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool to remove the Suite and then reinstall the standalone Photoshop

  • Photoshop 5, Priemere Elements 3, and the trial version Photoshop Elements and Preimere 10

    I have Windows 10, Photoshop 5, Preimere Elements 3, loaded on my computer. I also have the trial version of Photoshop Elements 10 and Preimere Elements 10 loaded. The trial versions are over 30 days old and I did not purchase the software. I received Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 as a Gift, now the questions.
    1 - Will photoshop elements work with Windows 10?
    2 - Do I need to uninstall Photoshop 5 and Priemere Elements 3 before atempting to load and/or upgrade the trail versions?

    Jeff,
    Thanks – I have Windows 7 professional. I thought it was windows 10 because MS Outlook is 2010.
    Do I need to keep the older Photoshop software after loading the new software or should I uninstall the old before loading the new software?
    AGAIN THANKS

  • Need an upgrade path from Adobe Photoshop Elements v1.0

    I have a customer who has somehow made Adobe Elements 1.0 continue to work for all these years.  Is there an upgrade path to get her to the latest version?
    Thanks

    If it is photoshop elements 1, there is no database (catalog) to backup, since pse 1 did not have an organizer.
    The organizer started with photoshop elements 3 on windows and photoshop elements 9 on macs.
    Just verify that in fact it is photoshop elements 1 by going to Help>About Photoshop Elements
    This what the splash screen should look like when you do that

  • 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.

  • 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
