Not from Design Premium CS4, no.
As Mylenium says, you can only upgrade a suite to another suite. You cannot upgrade the individual components of a suite (in your case just Acrobat).
Your options:
Upgrade your Design Premium CS4 to any CS6 Suite before 31 Dec 2012.
After that you will lose all upgrade options due to Adobe's new "one version back" upgrade policy which takes full effect from 1 Jan 2013.

Upgrading to CS6 Design and Web Premium from CS4 Design Premium Install Failure

I am trying to upgrade to CS6 Design and Web Premium from CS4 Design Premium on Win 7 (32bit). I am nistalling from the DVD which was purchased from the Adobe Store. The box says it is for Upgrading from 4 or 3x. I am entering the CS6 serial number and it is able to validate it. When it goes into the Preparing to Install mode the status bar never changes and after what seems like a very long time the Installation failed message is displayed. I ran the Adobe Support advisor and followed the link to the page that tells you how to resolve the issues and chose to go into the registry and look for "In Progess". There was no "In Progress". I have the serial numbers for CS4 and CS6 so they should be valid given that both were purchased through the Adobe Store. I am very frustrated!!!!!!!!!
Installation Status:
Installation failed:
Adobe Advisor Results:
Regestry:

I downloaded and installed the Application manager and re-started the installation. This time it got to installiing the applications and after 3 hours it was only 55% completed and showing that it was installing Acrobat and had 2 hours to go. It seemed to be stuck so I cancelled the install.

Help upgrading to CS6 from Adobe Design Premium CS5

I have Adobe Design Premium CS5. Is there a way to upgrade to CS6 online? Does anything need to be purchased to do this?

Yes, you need to purchase CS6 as an upgrade version (upgrades are not the same thing as updates).

Installing some components from CS4 Design Premium on one computer and the others on a different computer?

Hi All,
I have bought a copy of Design Premium Student Edition.
I have installed one copy of it on my parents computer at home.
I was going to also install all the programmes on my laptop as well but I already have Illustrator CS3 and Photoshop CS3 on it. Would I be allowed to install all the programmes other than illustrator and photoshop onto my laptop and then install the Illustrator and Photoshop CS4 applications onto another computer?
If so how do I go about doing it?
Many thanks for your help.
Best,
Tom

That would be a violation and the way I understand it, the student edition only allows for one activation.

I cannot install Acrobat Pro from CS4 Design Premium disks.

Acrobat Pro Installer will not run from my disk. Original purchase CS 4. Updated in past to CS7. Running Mac Mavericks OS on new mini. I have docs serial #s etc. Tried unsuccessfully to install AcrobatUpd11009 will not run installer on that or the original disk.
Is there a support number I can call at Adobe to get help? or are user forums their answer to customer support?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Possible or not upgrade PC version CS4 Design Premium to Apple Mac version

I have a big problem. Last year I bought a CS4 Design Premium package for the PC. However, I am switching systems to Apple (iMac) in a month and my CS4 for the PC won't work on an Apple Mac system. Buying new photoshop, Illustrator and Indesign is more expensive than I can afford. Is there a way to change or upgrade from PC to Mac? I hope anyone can help me.
Kind regards
Marjolein

Yes its called a Cross-Grade. You need to call Sales dept at Adobe There may or may not be some fee involved. Most software companies allow it. You may be asked to Destroy your PC Disk. Or
You and buy Parallels for your new Mac then install windows on the Parallels Partition (if you already have a Separate Windows install DVD). To get up and running if you don't have a packaged version (not OEM) of windows would be buy buy the cross Grade. If you have a Packaged version of Office laying around then buying Parallels for the Mac would be cheaper.

CS4 Design Premium Education Version upgrade to CS6 Design & Web Premium

Can I upgrade my CS4 Design Premium Education version to CS6 Design & Web Premium - likely an Education version also?
What is the cost?
What is the best upgrade option (not including CC)?

a) Edu versions can only be upgraded to commercial versions, but you missed the CS4 upgrade deadline which eneded December last year.
b) If you are still eligible for edu pricing it's rirrelevant - you simply buy a completely new licenses at the discounted price.

Upgrade CS4 design premium to CS5.5 standard, what happens with my web apps?

Hi,
I'm planning to upgrade my CS4 design premium to CS5.5 design standard, but I still like to use Dreamweaver from the CS4. Does anyone know if this is possible. I've chatted with an Adobe sales employe who said I can only upgrade to CS5.5 design premium in order to keep using dreamweaver but I read that other people are using different versions of CS simultanously on 1 computer. Any thoughts?
Thanks alot!

I respectfully disagree. The license includes a stipulation that you can continue to use the earlier version during a transition period. There is no set time limit there. I have CS3, CS4, CS5 and CS5.5 installed.

Acrobat 9 Pro will NOT install (CS4 Design Premium)

Acrobat 9 Pro will NOT install (CS4 Design Premium)
Acrobat Pro 9 will not install (FAILED), although every other program on the CS4 DVDs did install properly.
I have followed the instructions, and have tried with no programs running, not even virus protection (which is an insane thing for Adobe to demand of a product being installed where the installation routine is expecting an Internet connection): FAILED.
I uninstalled my Acrobat 6 Pro, (a standalone Pro version that I had to have a few years ago.) I uninstalled that working program knowing I had no idea where my original Adobe Acrobat CD is located, so I was essentially cutting myself off of Acrobat Pro if the Acrobat 9 Pro install continued to fail.
I reported this to Adobe support online.
I have followed the instructions to disable startup items and services, then tried the Acrobat 9 Pro install: FAILED.
At that point, I gave up installing Acrobat 9 Pro. I didn't have any more time to screw with it - I would re-visit the installation failure later.
Lo and behold, a client sent me a PDF file of a brochure, in an email, and I had to grab some text from it to put on his website (Done in Dreamweaver CS4.) Well, damn, now I'll have to go back and get that install to work...FAILED!
Suspecting a problem in the installation routine on the DVD, I decided to download the trial version of Acrobat 9 Pro. So, I did. It downloaded and installed without a hiccup, and I had Acrobat 9 Pro working for 30 days...
I did what I had to do, using the trial version, then figured I would re-visit the installation issue later, when I had a few hours to dedicate to all the hell of calling Adobe software support, handholding, maybe registry edits, multiple reboots, and multiple attempts at doing everything again, just so the support person would know that I did follow all the steps correctly to prove thw outcome is sill FAILED!
Oh crap, I got another PDF file. No problem, I thought, I don't need to edit the PDF, just read it. When I tried to open the file, Acrobat 9 Pro plastered a screen over the program - the screen saying my 30 day trial version has now run out, demanded a serial number, or quit. My CS4 serial number would not activate it, and so I had to quit, not even being able to read the PDF file.
So, I un-installed the trial version of Acrobat 9 Pro that had installed without a hitch and had worked flawlessly for 30 days.
Now I'm going to have to visit hell, and get the software that I paid hundreds of dollars for to work...
Please STOP and NOTE: Acrobat 9 Pro installed perfectly from the downloaded Internet version. What does that tell you? There are no operating system issues, no hardware compatibility issues (which I knew anyway, as the OS and hardware is up to date.) Even more significantly, there is no issue with the Windows registry, or other versions of Adobe Acrobat that had been installed before in the machine. My conclusion was that it has to be a problem with the installation routine on the CS4 disks.
So, I spent an hour on the phone with Adobe personnel: software support, to customer service, to sales, to customer service, and back to sales. After software support came to the conclusion that I needed to UNINSTALL ALL OF CS4, and run a clean-up utility, I knew I had to try getting a new set of DVDs and hope the installation routine problems/bugs had been worked out.
After being batted back and forth by Adobe Customer Service and Adobe Sales, I finally got someone to agree to send a set of DVDs to me.
I got the DVDs. I tried to install Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro: FAILED
As I told the software support person, I do not want to un-install the entire CS4 suite. I have all of those programs working fine, and have about a dozen web sites within Dreamweaver CS4 painstakingly set up and active, and some of them are current projects that I am working on daily. I also have multiple extensions installed, and spent quite a bit of time getting all of those programs set up for my preferences and my work flow. I DO NOT WANT to uninstall the entire suite of applications to get Acrobat 9 Pro to install.
And the conclusion of the "sophisticated" Adobe Support Advisor as to what specifically was the instalation issue?
Adobe Support Advisor
The module found no solutions to report for the selected log file.
If you continue to have difficulties with the application,
please contact Adobe Support: http://www.adobe.com/support
System Information :
Operating System = Windows XP
Locale = en
At this point, what I want is to know what registry keys to edit and which folder(s) to delete to eliminate previous traces of Acrobat. In other words, just exactly the tiny piece of the "clean-up utility" that I need to run in order to allow the *Y#^%@#&#(& installation routine to work for Acrobat 9 Pro. I have no intention of uninstalling Dreamweaver CS4, as that is my business livlihood, and I know that my Dreamweaver CS4 client files/sites could not be read by earlier Dreamweaver versions. Asking me to uninstall Dreamweaver, Photoshop, Illustrator, Flash, InDesign, and Fireworks is insane. Your bad installation routine is not my fault, and you cannot expect me spend countless hours getting all those programs set up the way I want and with all my client/work files working correctly and all the extensions set up properly. So, if Adobe software support refuses to tell me what registry keys need to be changed, then I want Adobe Sales to send me a new, standalone version of Acrobat 9 Pro on disk.

I hit the same problem except I had a Reader X installed not a pro version. For me the solution was to really make sure that nothing else was running. I followed the steps from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2438651#reso2 the link is goofy so here is the pertinent text:
Programs that are currently running on your computer may be interfering with the installation processDisable programs that might be interfering with the installation process. To do this, follow these steps:

On the General tab, click Selective startup, and then click to clear the Load startup items check box.
Click Services, click Hide all Microsoft services, and then click Disable all.
Click OK, and then click Restart.
Try running your software program installation.
When you are finished troubleshooting the problem, restart the computer in Normal Startup mode. To do this, follow these steps:

Acrobat 9 wants licence - CS4 Design Premium license doesn't work?

I have CS4 Design Premium that I upgraded from CS3 Design Premium. It has been installed and all programs working for quite some time.
Recently I uninstalled CS3 and CS4 wanted the license re-entered. I found my CS4 box and entered that license number in, but it also wanted the CS3 number as the elegible upgrade. I couldn't find it.
Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Illustrator, Acrobat all of them kept asking for the license, so kept clicking past the dialog that said, I only had "x" days left. When it got to "0" days, I had to dig through the back room until I finally found CS3.
That made the entire suite work except for Acrobat. Acrobat seems to have a different activation than the rest of the suite, but it won't take my CS4 number.
What can I do??

Unable to open Adobe Acrobat Pro after CS4 Design Premium install

I recently purchased Adobe CS4 Design Premium. I attempted to install it Sunday, and it completed with an indication of success. I then tried to open all my applications to make sure everything went well, and Acrobat keeps coming up with the following error: "You can't open the application Adobe Acrobat Pro because it may be damaged or incomplete." I tried to remove it with the uninstaller, and it does not see it. I have tried to install it multiple times. I even swapped out the DVD drive to see if it was having problems reading the disc, but nothing has helped. I even tried to delete it entirely. I currently have a web case open, but they state that can take up to 3 days to be answered. I tried to call technical support, but gave up after an hour on hold. I suspect a bad disc, but I really don't want to have to wait a week or more to get the issue resolved through sending endless emails back and forth with a web case. I was hoping someone would have a good answer to my problem that would not require that. I am trying to install it on a fairly plain OS 10.6.2 system. It is a 2009 Mac Pro Quad with 6GB of RAM. As stated, so far none of the other applications are giving me any issue. It has just been Acrobat Pro.
Thanks.

I ended up finding the probable solution to this problem. I downloaded the trial version of CS4 Design Premium. Seeing that I had already installed CS4, it asked what application I wanted to reinstall. I reinstalled Acrobat. When I opened it the first time, it told me that the licensing server could not be reached. I opened Photoshop, then it again. It has worked fine since then. I have updated it to 9.3.1, so it should be good from here on out.

How can I fix error code 131:4? Licensing for this product stopped working. I have windows vista home edition and CS4 Design Premium. I downloaded licensing zip file for windows but I can't seem to get it to launch. Look forward to help from anyone

Steve,
I appreciate your answer. While it might work, I'm a bit hesitant to remove the other programs as a possible solution since they are all currently working.
With Acrobat 9 Pro failing with the OS 10.7 upgrade, I'm hoping that there is a less severe solution.
Since the trigger appears to be 10.7 and may have something to do with the discontinued support of Rosetta, I could be spending a few hours working on a reinstall without a change. Yes, it might work. The "might" is the part that makes me hesitate.
Is anyone else out there on OS 10.7 and running Acrobat 9 Pro? Any issues with anyone else?
Thanks Steve. I do appreciate your offering a solution. I may end up trying it if nothing else comes together.

Upgrading from CS4 design to CS5 web

I have the CS4 design premium suite. Does anyone know if I can purchase the CS5 web premium upgrade as is, or do I have to purchase full versions of the missing components of the web suite before I purchase the web premium upgrade? If someone could help, that would be greatly appreciated.

You can, but why do you want to? What will you find in the Web suite that's missing from Design. Answer: Flash Builder and Contribute.
IMO, Design Premium is the best bang for the buck out there and covers just about anything most designers would need. I have an article on my website you might find worthwhile: http://www.theindesignguy.com/purchase-advice.shtml
Also, be careful when buying. You need to get the CS4 to CS5 upgrade. You can get it on Amazon for about $580: http://amzn.to/ahaavR
Design Premium is $578: http://amzn.to/alNI7q
Hope that helps,

Upgrading CS4 Design Premium to CS5

Hi All,
I recently purchased Adobe CS4 Design Premium with the free upgrade to CS5 Design Premium. I'm using a Mac Pro (2.66Ghz Quad-Core Intel Xeon). CS4 is currently loaded, but I'm holding off loading my copy of the CS5 upgrade until I've read whether there are any known issues to consider (I also have some important work to finish before I start dabbling). Have any of you taken the plunge already?
Is there anything I should be aware of with this system set-up?
Should I uninstall CS4 before loading CS5?
Should I first upgrade the Mac OS to 10.6.3?
Will upgrading the OS to 10.6.3 affect CS4 if I leave it on the computer?
Any suggestions from graphic design professionals would be most appreciated.
Thanks,
Tom

Hi Tom,
We have exactly the same spec, 2.8 8 cores and 30" LCD's.
I also got the free upgrade. I've still got CS3 and CS4 loaded, so if you get a problem with something in CS5 you just open in CS4.
All that happens is that documents will open in the latest version when double clicked. You have to right click and open in a lower version if you choose.
Bear in mind though that things created in a later version cannot be opened in a higher version! esp Indesign, Illustrator, Flash etc.
I'm using CS5 everyday, the normal stuff we use every day works fine, no problems and nothing will hinder your work. Obviously there is loads of stuff in the apps which we haven't even looked at or used yet because of time.
Few kinks are:
Indesign - by default it has all the new measurement and guide lines turned on, they annoyed me so I turned them all off. A bug is that you can't turn off the new frame highlighting but Adobe are aware of this and it's discussed on their forums. Everything else, including all menu items seem to be in the same place.
If you are exporting a big pdf, it seems very very quick but this is because it has background processing now. If you try to close the document straight after saving the pdf, it will come up with a note saying 'process in action' or something. Good feature if you want to carry on working.
Also, remember to change the preflight settings to include RGB images and colour as it's not on by default.
Indesign also forgets page window sizes so if you had two documents open side by side, next time you open them it's forgotten this whereas CS3 used to remember. THis is a bug.
Illustrator - Same as Indesign, you may want to turn off all the stuff you don't need in preferences, remember to turn on scale stroke widths etc because its off by default. In Illustrator you CAN turn off frame highlighting (shows a different team works on this!). And they STILL have not added a shortcut to place an item!
Photoshop - All more or less the sae for day to day use. It is faster when running on a 64 bit Mac. Loads of new features, but the ones we are used to are still there, and where you expect them to be.
Dreamweaver - This is the one with flaws. It forgets ftp login details and the new live site view has problems. If you open a file up it can hang for ages if you have used a direct link to the jquery site for the code, (you need to keep code locally, better practice anyway), and if you use live site, it has a big flaw with the related files. If you hover over them you'll see it thinks some are in the wrong folder. If you try to edit them it says it doesn't exist, but this is because its looking in the wrong ftp folder! You have to manually open it, which kind of makes related files redundant.
Away from the live site feature general web updates and static sites etc is the same, the UI is now consistant with the other apps, its just the ftp details being loss each time on relaunch that is annoying.
On all apps, by default they have a pointless application bar which uses space, I turned this off.
There may be others which I havn't come across yet, but I use it daily, there isn't anything which should stop you installing as far as I'm concerned.
Hope this helps
Cheers
