Upgrade to Creative Suite Prod Premium

Hello all - been a long time since I've hung around here and that's part of the problem...
I'm looking to buy the Creative Suite 4 Production Premium edition but am uncertain (a little confused) about whether I qualify for the best upgrade option. I own two copies of the Video Collection (one v1.0 and one v1.5, which include Pro 1.x, AE 1.x and Audition 1.x).
When choosing to buy online, and selecting 'Upgrade' I'm offered 3 choices for the product I own. I don't have CS3 so that's out of the equation BUT then I'm lost. The second option appears to be 'upgrade from any one product' but I don't have just one product - I own a collection. The 3 option is 'upgrade from any one suite or video bundle' which sounds like the one for me, but the listed products don't include the Video Collection.
I'm hoping that the video collection suites qualify me for the 3rd option but I don't want to buy and have delivered only to find the s/w won't install because the serials aren't valid.
Can anyone confirm whether the Video Collection suites are permitted upgrade options for this third (cheapest) upgrade price?
Jon

AFAIK, the collections are just that, a collection of individual
applications which would leave you at the upgrade from a single
application stage.
But even at that, it sounds like you've got some very old apps which
would probably leave out of the upgrade path altogether.
Your best bet would be to call Adobe.

  • What is the procedure when upgrading to Creative Suite 5 Production Premium?

    Hello!
    In 2006 I bought the Adobe Creative Suite Production Studio Premium. The procedure when activating the installation I don't remember exactly. The computer on which the Suite was installed doesn't have an internet connection (I thought that was the simplest and safest thing to do; I have another computer for that purpose).
    Now, if I want to upgrade to Creative Suite 5 on a newly bought i7 computer, what is the procedure? What do I need to prove to Adobe that I'm eligible for the upgrade? Please tell me the serial number on the box is enough... my old editing computer doesn't start at all so any info contained there is unobtainable at the moment.

    The serial number of the old version - is that, by any chance, something you get from Adobe via internet or is it stuck on the box with the manuals and DVDs?I can't remember myself.
    I kept the following (I don't even know if it is from Adobe) on my other (internet) computer. Someone recognizes this as specifically relating to Production Studio, when it comes to the serial number format for example? L is a letter and N is a number.
    Below are your Serial and Authorization keys.
    Enter them in the "Enter registration keys" window, which can be found at:
    "Help menu" -> "Enter registration keys".
    Serial-key: NNLL-LLLN-LLLL-LNLL  Auth-key: LLLN-NLNL-NLLN
    As I said, I can't access info on my old editing computer. Any help would be appreciated.

  • While upgrading Adobe Creative Suite CS4 ME into Adobe Creative Suite CS5.5 Design Premium, I get an error saying This serial number is not of a qualifying product, please try another. I used to be able to get a code from customer service but I can't get

    While upgrading Adobe Creative Suite CS4 ME into Adobe Creative Suite CS5.5 Design Premium, I get an error saying This serial number is not of a qualifying product, please try another. I used to be able to get a code from customer service but I can't get to the chat. Please advise!!!!

    MoeGhazal I reviewed your account and it looks like you have have upgraded from a CS4 volume license for Design Premium to a retail upgrade of Design Premium 5.5.
    I also show that you made two purchases of CS5.5 Design Premium but the second purchase was canceled.  Please make sure you are utilizing the serial number which ends in 7886.
    If you are using the correct serial number then it is likely the installer will not recognize your volume license CS4 serial number as being valid for an upgrade.  If you can contact our support team then you can be walked through an unlocking procedure to allow you to proceed with the installation.  You can contact our support team directly at Contact Customer Care.  You may want to try installing a web browser you have not previously utilized.  It is likely a toolbar or some other software application is affecting your ability to access chat support successfully.
    If you are still unable to reach our support team then please verify the information under your account is accurate.  If you can please then update this discussion after confirming this then I can request a member of our support team contact you directly.
    Again I would recommend reaching out directly if possible as it will be the most efficient method of resolving your current error.

  • When/how do i download the CS6 upgrade promised by deal on Creative Suite Design Premium CS5.5?

    Hello
    I purchased from Adobe Creative Suite Design Premium CS5.5 Student Edition. The deal Adobe had promised was a free upgrade to CS6 as soon as it became available to do so, if i bought the package before a stated date, i did so and installed it. My question is how (or when) do i access my free download of CS6 versions of the software contained within Creative Suite Design Premium CS5.5. My pruchase of the product hinged on this promised free upgrade so it is very important to me to find out how/when i can expect the download.
    yours sincerely
    Edward Dillon

    If you purchased CS5.5 within the offer period then you might have already been upgraded to CS6. However, you don't have to worry at all.
    For the best assistance, I recommend our chat support at http://adobe.ly/yxj0t6. Our chat representatives can provide a personalized experience to resolve the issue you have described.
    Just let them know the issue, and they will help you out.

  • Upgrade only Photoshop in Creative Suite 2 Premium

    I have Adobe Creative Suite 2 Premium. Is there any way to just upgrade the Photoshop portion to CS5?

    Hello Chris, you can upgrade from suite-to-suite, but not from suite-to-component...
    For more details see the "Upgrade eligibility, pricing, and purchasing options" section of Adobe's Creative Suite FAQ.
    BTW, CS2 is the oldest version that would qualify for the discounted upgrade pricing to CS5.
    Hope this helps answer your question!

  • Creative Suite Design Premium - Flash Builder Upgrade

    Hi, I bought the Design Premium product last week and I'm keen to investigate mobile development side of things (we develop Mobile Apps at YARG) but it looks like you need Flash Builder, which you don't get with Design Premium.  I'm new to the Adobe development side of things and a little confused.  With the Flash Professional it says we can build iOS for Air?  What's the main difference between Flash Builder and Flash Professional, is Flash Builder for of a development IDE or can I still build Mobile Apps with Flash Professional?   If you already have the a creative suite can you purchase extra products (like Flash Builder) at a discounted rate - probably no.
    Thanks for any help you can give.

    In the Suites, Flash Builder is in Adobe Creative Suite Web Premium version (NOT Design Premium) or the Master Collection. (I'm not sure whether it's too late to do an exchange: You'd have to call Customer Service.)
    As for your other question, it like a better question for the Flash forums than you'll get here.

  • I bought a number of Creative Suite 2 Premium packages (plus a few others) at an auction and want to sell them on.  Is activation going to be a problem?

    Recently I bought a fairly large collection of software at a local general auction.  In the collection are several copies of Adobe products that I would like to sell on.  I've read through the activation transfer section of the adobe site but the advice there seems to either require access to the computer the software was originally installed on (which may now have either been broken for parts or simply scrapped) or some form filling by the original owners who are unknown and not contactable.
    The products I have are:
    Creative Suite 2 Premium (8x copies a mix of Windows and Mac)
    Creative Suite 2 Premium With Macromedia Studio 8 (1x copy for Windows)
    Creative Suite 5 Master Collection (1x copy for Mac)
    Creative Suite 5.5 Design Premium Upgrade Version (1x copy for Mac)
    All are in their original boxes with their manuals, registration cards.
    I suppose I could punt the whole collection on as a "bought as seen" lot but I'd rather sort out the activation issue so I can move them on in good faith without just passing the problem on to someone else.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks but that's not the issue I'm asking about steve, I'll be selling them on to users of the correct required operating systems (Windows XP and Mac OS X) of which there are still a large number in use.  But I need to make sure they can be activated once installed.

  • Upgrading from Creative Suite Design Prem 4 to 5.5

    Hello, I have a question in regards to upgrading between accounts. I have installed on my laptop, Creative Suite Design Premium 4. I want to upgrade to 5.5 but do not have access to the disks or the serial number number as it was installed on my personal computer from my previous company. Can I still do the upgrade or do I have to purchace the regular version?
    Basically, what is needed to download and install the upgrade?
    Thanks!
    Melissa

    Hi Donny
    If you use a CS4 product to get the discount on Creative Cloud, the CS4 serial number/product will still work.
    One thing to mention is that the CS4 serial number needs to be registered to the Adobe ID that will be used during the Creative Cloud sign up process.  Also, the discount doesn't apply to volume licensing customers.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks
    Bev

  • I installed a new SSD drive in my computer and now Adobe Creative Suite Web Premium says I don't have a license. I have license. It was very expensive. I am disabled now, and I need this software working.

    I installed a new SSD drive in my computer and now Adobe Creative Suite Web Premium says I don't have a license. I have license. It was very expensive. I am disabled now, and I need this software working. Adobe Acrobat has been a primary tool for accommodating memory problems after a brain injury. (A car ran me down while I was out getting exercise.) I installed the SSD because I needed my management of PDF files to run faster. I called tech support for help when the software first stopped working, but they needed me to give them a number from my original disks. Because of my disability, I've been having someone come in to clean, and the shelves where I kept my software packages were cleared. I've been hunting for them ever since, but I can't look for them myself for very long at a time. Today I finally found them, but now I can't seem to contact tech support. What happened? I don't want to delete my old files because I need the setup to remain unchanged, because I don't do well with changes. I think all I should need is to have someone located the license file on drive E: and move it to wherever it is needed on the SSD drive, but I don't know what to look for.

    Tech support is not normally available on weekends.  You should contact them as soon as the weekend passes and pick up where you left off with them.

  • Trouble with incomplete installation of Adobe Creative Suite Production Premium

    Hi,
    I tried to install Adobe Creative Suite Production Premium from CD:s, but half way through the installation something went wrong and installation was abruptly interrupted and cancelled. I then went to disc 1 again to try and re-install the program, but then it says that I already have an installation (even if it is incomplete) and that I have to finish installing the one I have already started. But I cannot finish the one that is already started because I can't find any way how to continue an installation that has been started.
    What can I do?

    Nobody can tell you anything without proper system info or other technical details. We don't even know what version. For starters run the cleaner tool and try again.
