You're kidding me... I have to pay for Acrobat X upgrade TWICE???

I own CS 5 and purchased the Acrobat X Pro upgrade in December. Now I see CS5.5 prominently features Acrobat X yet there is no discount for people who already OWN Acrobat X and paid $199 for that privilege just 4 short months ago. The customer service rep I spoke to said there was no discount for people who already bought Acrobat X Pro and, sensing my rising blood pressure, suggested that I could sell the previous Acrobat X Pro upgrade to offset the cost. Yeah, why didn't I think of that. ...jerk.
So, people, don't ever let Adobe tempt you with an "off cycle" Acrobat upgrade if you own a CS. You'll just have to pay for it twice. Sorry Adobe, I will hold on to my money and wait for CS 6, if that is what you really want me to do.
Very disappointing. And a lesson learned.

Users who have Acrobat 9 Pro as part of the CS5 collections cannot use the upgrade for the point product.
I don't understand... I don't need and would'nt have any use of a second copy of Acrobat Pro. I aldeady have One, paid 6 weeks ago (on the 12/02/2011) at 199$. If I remember correctly, the Acrobat 9 Pro I had was bought as I upgraded from CS3 to CS3.3. And I upgraded to CS4, then CS5... And I saw a touring show from a team from Adobe, in Montreal about all the marvelous thing Acrobat X was to do... last december. So I decided to pay the 200$ for the upgrade.
I have been pouring good money in the last 5 years into Adobe's pocket... and I was not complaining because I did feel there was some fair play : I was not forced to upgrade and when I choose to, I had for something my money.
Now there is something fudged into this Acrobat Pro thing that is sometime include and sometime not include into the bundle... What do I have now, with my lonely upgraded copy of Acrobat... ? Something I will just throw away when I upgrade to 5.5 or 6 ?
This is not the kind of service and intelligence I am accustomed from Adobe. Too big ? The machine already too hungry ?? It's a shame.

  • Do you have to pay for the macbook upgrade?

    Hey guys! I recently bought a used MacBook os x 10.5.8, I changed the admin user ( http://en.kioskea.net/forum/affich-73393-change-mac-admin-password-without-the-d isk ) And now I want to access the mac app store, but now I hear that you have to upgrade your mac to do that, but before upgrading I have one question: Do you have to pay for the upgrade, because people say that you have to pay 30$ and on the youtube I see that you can easily press the "Software update" and you just folow some further steps such as ''next'' , wait few minutes and it's done ! So I don't get it !!! or maybe if you entered the credit card details on iTunes it will charge you automatically ?  Yeah, that's my question

  • HT204053 my wife and i have seperate itunes accounts is there a way we can link our accounts to share songs so we dont have to pay for the same song twice?

    When the first ipad came out i set it up and created an itunes account, since then she got an iphone and an ipad and everything was good. I had an android but wanted to try out the iphone. When i set it up ut jumpled all of our contacts, apps, and everythin. it was a mess.
         Since, i purchased and ipad 2 and an iphone and to keep our stuff from combing i used a different computer and created an new apple ID for myself so our info wouldnt combine, I was wondering if i did the right thing or if i should have went about it a different way. I was going to see if there was a way when she purchased a song i could get it. I dont want to pay for the same song twice and only want to share songs. If i cant do this can i copy her library and paste it into my itunes??
    Any help wouldl be greatly apprecieated we both have icloud set up but i cant figure out the best solution.

    Welcome to the world of digital media. Your can't really transfer it. I don't know what the rules are about transferring to your spouse but I do know that in some cases when you die, your heirs cannot inherit your digital media. This is why there is still an advantage to buying the CD since the usage rights belong to whomever holds the physical media.
    A possible workaround is to burn the songs to a music CD with yout account (tracks only without song titles) and then having your wife upload it as a regular music CD onto her account. It's been a while since i've done this so I'm not sure if it would work now.
    Please note that I'm not advocating copyright and/or TOS violations. I'm only suggesting ways to copy music for your own personal use which has traditonally been permitted. I only did this because I wanted to convert iTunes songs to mp3 files so I could burn them onto a data CD for use in my car. It would make sense that since married couples are a joint entity, this would be personal use.
    Also, I'm not a lawyer so don't take this as legal advice.

  • I just bought a Mac Book Pro and why do I now have to pay for the OS X upgrade?

    I just bought a Mac Book Pro about a month ago and now I have to pay for the OS upgrade!!! Is there anyway to avoid this charge?

    Click on the  in the top left corner, then About This Mac. The version number will be listed right under OS X.
    If it is something like 10.8.3 or 10.8.4 (anything starting with 10.8.x), you can click Software Update to download 10.8.5 for free.

    Return it. If you can't return it, turn it over to the police and consider this a life lesson.

    I have used Adobe send in the past to send PDF's that are too large to attach. Do I have to pay for that now?  It doesn't seem to be working anymore.  I use the free version of Adobe.

  • HT201238 How many months do you have to pay for 20gb data

    I Would like to know how long you have to pay for the storage

    It's every month, unless or until you decide to cancel your subscription and revert to the free 5Gb storage.  I've just had to upgrade to the 200Gb option because of the new Photos app, and figure that it's going to cost me £36 a year, which I'm going to have to live with.

  • HT4436 Do you have to pay for cloud services?

    Do you pay for cloud services??

    No iCloud's services are free (5 GB storage for your data. Purchased music, movies, apps, books, TV shows and your Photo Stream don’t count against your free storage). If you need more storage capacity you have to pay for the additional space.

  • Do you have to pay for facetime on ipod touch?

    im getting wifi soon and i saw facetime and i want to know do you have to pay for facetime on the ipod touch

    As far as I know Facetime in included in the Ipod. At least mother her Ipod has it.
    You don't have to pay anything. It is free as it uses your wifi. So the only thing you will pay is you internet connection.
    I use it a lot between my Ipad and my mother her Ipod Touch
    Have fun

  • Do you have to pay for a battery service?

    Do you have to pay for a service of your macbook battery? Bearing in mind I do not have an AppleCare package.

    Warranty for battery is limited to just 1 year.
    That covers only "manufacturing defect".

  • Do you have to pay for a refurbished iPad if your iPad is still has warranty ?

    Do you have to pay for a refurbished iPad if your iPad is still has warranty ? Or something like that ?

    Have you done any basic troubleshooting at all to see if you can fix this? Have you tried rebooting the iPad?
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    If there is a fault with the iPad and you did not cause the damage, as long as the device is under Warranty it will be replaced at no cost, but I'm sure that Apple will want to try some basic troubleshooting steps as well before they simply declare the device faulty.

  • If you get an iPhone 5s sim free do you have to pay for data

    I want to get an iPhone 5s but do want data. I was wondering if I get a sim free iPhone do I still have to pay for data?

    Sim free does not mean that you can make calls or use the Internet for free. To use the
    Phone, you will have to contact the wireless provider that you intend to use to see what
    service plans they offer. Most wireless providers require you to have a data plan in addition
    to a plan for regular phone service when using an iPhone.

  • If you get an iPad with the 3G do you have to pay for internet service?

    If you get an iPad with the 3G do you have to pay for internet service?

    No. But you have to purchase a data plan in order to use the iPad via the 3G connection. Some 3G iPad owners do not have internet service at home and rely only on the 3G connection.
    If you do not purchase a data plan to use with the 3G, then you will only be able to use your iPad where you can find a WiFi connection - like at a library, or a Starbucks, Barnes and Noble, a friend's house that has WiFi .....
