Upgrading to PS CS5 from a foreign version of PS Elements 6

Well, I live in India, and I had some friends in Texas purchase a Wacom tablet for me some time ago. I received Photoshop Elements 6 bundled with it and an upgrade offer that allows me to upgrade from PS Elements 6 to PS CS5 for $300.
Naturally, this offer is restricted to North America and Canada.
I was wondering if I would have any issues installing/activating the upgrade if I had some family members from Canada use the offer number to purchase the product upgrade(online, or a physical copy) over there and either send me the serial key or bring the physical copy with them when they make a trip over here. I'm aware that I may not receive product support, but that isn't too much of an issue to me.
I've also had no issues installing and activating the bundled copy of PS Elements 6.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks again for the answer.
On the product offer page, I have the following relevant information with the price listed as $299:
"Upgrade from Adobe Photoshop Elements 9, 8, 7, or 6 for Windows or Photoshop Elements 9, 8, 6, or 4.0 for Mac"
"As a valued customer of our partner, get $400 off the full retail price of US $699 when you upgrade from Photoshop Elements."
Terms and conditions:
"Limit of one per household. Must own the copy of Photoshop Elements that came bundled with your product in order to install this version of Photoshop CS5 software. Offer valid in the U.S. and Canada only. Offer expires on November 30, 2011. Offer subject to change without notice."
I am able to add to cart, although I can't complete the purchase since my region is set to India. Does this mean the offer is still valid?

I had to erase my data to upgrade my iPhone software from an older version. I backed up first, but seem to have lost all my notes. Does anyone know how retrieve my old notes?

Is this the note you are referring to:
Not sure if this can help you.
I checked my notes. They are stored here:
MacintosHD/Users/MYHOME/Library/Containers/com.apple.notes/Data/Library/CoreData /ExternalRecords/
xxxxxserie.of.numbers.probably.yours.are.different/IMAPNote/_records/0/
If I go tot this window on finder and enter Time Machine I can go back and find old notes...
If so, am I doing this on my new hard drive on on the time machine? When I do this on the time machine, what is "my home"? Also, I am unable to find "containers".
If I go to users/jeff/library, then I see components, compositions, contextual, etc, but not containers.

Please advise of anyone knows what I can do. The only option in the window is to cancel the installation.

Hi Lanaid,
Welcome to Adobe Forums.
Please open activity monitor and check if there is any entry for safari in there.
If yes, please close the process and then try.

How do I get my photos from a previous version of Photoshop Elements (6) into Photoshop Elements 12?

How do I get my photos from a previous version of Photoshop Elements (6) into Photoshop Elements 12? Do I restore from a backup? I have over 12,000 pics ( a good portion with multiple versions) and don't want to lose captions and metadata. Thank you in advance for your help.

If this is on the same computer just install PSE 12. It should find your old catalog and upgrade it to PSE 12. If for some reason it doesn't, then go to file>manage catalogs, find your old catalog and tell PSE 12 to convert it.
If this is a new computer, then yes, full backup and restore.

Upgrade to Photoshop CS5 from CS3/CS2/6.0

I purchased Adobe Photoshop 6.0, then upgraded to CS2, then CS3.
Can I upgrade to CS5?
If so, can I install the trial and later activate it once I have the key?
Since the key is an upgrade key, what is it going to ask for to verify the fact that the CS3 version (which was an upgrade) was based on a full retail version?
The reason for all these questions is that I'm going to be upgrading from Vista 32 bit to Windows 7 64 bit. I'd like to just install Photoshop CS5 and try it out, then order the upgrade to complete the install later. I'm concerned about an upgrade not being appropriate (1) and a need to install Photoshop CS3 completely and then run the update to CS5. If I have to do that, I may just install CS3 after my Windows upgrade.
Thanks in advance for your responses. While I did see some questions about upgrading, I missed this exact scenario if it was previously posted.

The upgrade process is really quite straightforward these days - even on a new box which has never previously had Adobe software installed.
Upgrades are as good as full versions once installed. When installing upgrades, all that matters is that you have a serial number to an earlier qualifying version handy - Adobe has given up tracing this all the way back to your full version which could be up to 20 years ago. Upgrade serial numbers can only be verified by serial numbers up to 3 versions back anyway so Photoshop CS does not qualify for a CS5 upgrade.
There's no need to install older versions on a new computer before installing the CS5 upgrade version. It's actually the full code on the disk regardless of whether you purchased a full version or an upgrade - the serial number tells the installer if you've bought an upgrade or full version license.
When you enter your upgrade serial number for CS5, the installer will ask you to enter an earlier qualifying serial number (full or upgrade does not matter). I've successfully completed this exact scenario myself several times.
The only caveat to the above is that there is a world of difference in licensing terms (and serial numbers) between a suite and a standalone version. If you install a CS5 suite trial then want to keep just the Photoshop component (and enter its serial number), you'll have to uninstall the entire suite first then install the upgrade version of standalone Photoshop CS5. Then enter your CS5 serial number then verify by entering your CS3 serial number.

Upgrading to PP CS5 from CS4 Master Collection

Hi there,
I am currently running Premiere Pro CS4, as part of the CS4 Master Collection package.
I need to upgrade my copy of Premiere to CS5 but can't afford to upgrade the rest of the bundled software.
Is it possible to upgrade to Premiere Pro CS5 from a copy of CS4 within the CS4 Master Collection, or am I only entitled to upgrade to the entire Master Collection CS5?
Thanks!

I upgraded from the CS 4.0 Master Collection to the CS 5.5 Master Collection myself. If you use the other products in the Master Collection you should upgrade the whole thing. Photoshop, AE and DreamWeaver have had some nice new features added since version 4. Keep in mind Audition is now included with the Master Collection.

Download songs from a foreign version of Itunes?

I'm an ex-pat New Zealander living in London. My favourite kiwi band has just released their new album and I depserately want to download it. As far as I can tell at the moment it is only available on the New Zealand version of iTunes. Is there any way I can download the album from my current location in England?

There is only one verion of iTunes.
In order to buy music from a store in a country you need:
a) a credit card issued by a bank in that country with a billing address also in that country, or
b) a mailing address for your residence in that country and a gift certificate or a prepaid card that was bought in that country.
Therefore, for most people it is not possible to buy music from a foreign store. I understand this is a restriction required by the holders of the rights to the music, not Apple.

Upgrade of CS3-CS5 from old Macs to new Macs...

Hi there,
We currently have four Macs all running CS3.
We are looking to buy two new machines to replace two of these (for the faster operators).
I want to hold on a bit for CS5 to be released and then upgrade.
How do i go about the changeover?
Do i deactivate CS3 on both old machines (these machines will be put in to storage and no longer used), install it on the two new macs and then buy an upgrade package for CS5 for both machines?
I was just unsure about the changeover to new machines and licensing issues!
Can anybody shed any light on this?
Or is the above a completely long-winded way to go about the upgrade?
Or, am i going to have to buy two brand new copies of CS5 outright?
I'm sorry to be so long-winded!
Best regards,
Graham Robins

Retrieving missing keyword tags from a previous version of Photoshop Elements

I just purchased an upgraded version of Photoshop Elements 12 and Premiere Elements 12, but after all my photos were converted to the new version, all of my keyword tags from the previous version are not showing. How do I retrieve them?

Thank you so much. I had tried to use both of those buttons, but I didn't know that I had to use them in that order in order for the tags to show up, and I couldn't find the answer in the Adobe help section, either. Looks like all my tags are there and the problem is solved. Thanks again.

Upgrading to Photoshop CS5 from Photoshop CS4 Upgrade

I want to upgrade from CS4 to CS5, but CS4 is an upgrade. Can I still upgrade to CS5 even though CS4 is an upgrade?

Yes. That is, after all, the point of selling people upgrades with every new version.

Just upgraded to PS CS5 from CS3 and LR will not recognize CS5 as external editor

I just upgraded from PS CS3 to CS5 then uninstalled CS3. LR 2.7 is not recognizing PS (CS5) as the default external editor and I don't get the "edit as smart object in PS", "Open as layers in Photoshop", etc… options when I right-click an image and select "edit in" as they are now greyed out. I've tried to repair LR and reinstall but nothing makes it recognize PS CS5 as the default external editor. Any ideas? Thx in advance.

I ended up reinstalling CS5 and that solved the problem with one exception. It is now the default external editor and I have the option to export to PS as a smart object - However, I do not have the options to export to PS in layers or export to PS as Photomerge or Export to PS as HDR. I did have these options with CS3.

Want to upgrade to PS CS5 from CS3 Web Premium

I want to upgrade from Photoshop CS3 that was part of CS3 Web Premium Suite to PhotoShop CS5 Extended. I do not want to upgrade the entire suite. Is this possible? Jack Davis said I should be able to. I just want to make sure. The Adobe website says I cannot. I think that is a marketing ploy... Can someone please help?

Trying to upgrade to Indesign 4 from PM6.5

Have finally found the courage to upgrade to a new computer and open my Indesign CS4 box. I know I bought it a couple of years ago but have never got round to running anyhting but PM 6.5 under Windows xp.
However it won't let me install and upgrade as it wantsmy Pagemake serial number. I haven't installed PM6.5 on this new machine as it now runs windows 7 but have got the old serial number which I have entered ( correctly!) several times, with and without hyphens but CS4 just won't recongnise the number and having trawled the Adobe website for a contact number for uk or even an email contact I am about to give up!
Can anyone help please? Even a contact number for Adobe would be great.
Janet

If you're the owner of the PM-product, and if you've registered it, Adobe can look that up and give you a serial number which works. I know that at some point in the past they changed the way the serial numbers were written on the box. As I said, I had the same problem, I called customer service and after having given the pm serial number they mailed me a working number for the installation.
Normally, when ID asks for the original PM disk, you can remove the ID disk and replace it with the PM disk, wait untill the installers starts, then remove again and it should continue with the ID installation (this is the theory, in practice it's a nightmare to get it running).
The "non valid" messages can indeed mean that you've upgraded to pm6.5 from an older version, try locating that disk or better, the serial number of it.
