CS4 Design Premium upgrade question

Jun 15, 2012 8:56 PM

I'm looking to upgrade my CS4 to 6. Right now I don't want to upgrade the entire software. Does Adobe offer an option to upgrade Dreamweaver within the CS4 Premium program? Meaning individually vs. all?

    Unfortunately not.

     

    Suites can only be upgraded to suites.

     

    Your options are:

     

    1. upgrade CS4 Design Premium to any CS6 Creative Suite (by 31 Dec 2012 or lose any future upgrade eligibility), or
    2. subscribe to the Creative Cloud (by 31 Aug 2012 for special introductory pricing)

     

    http://www.adobe.com/au/products/creativesuite/faq.html

     

    Am I eligible for upgrade pricing from an earlier Creative Suite edition to an individual CS component? 

    No. Adobe does not offer upgrade pricing for customers wishing to move from a suite edition to an individual CS component. For complete upgrade information for the product you are interested in, consult the upgrade eligibility chart on that product's buying guide page.

     

     

    Bear in mind:

    1. Adobe has introduced a one-version-back policy with CS6 so, as a CS4 user, you must upgrade to CS6 before 31 Dec 2012 in order to be eligible for upgrade pricing to CS7
    2. The clock is ticking. As a CS4 user, you have until 31 Dec 2012 to upgrade to CS6. After that you pay full price (or join the Cloud).

    There is an option 3.  You could subscribe to Dreamweaver CS6 if you need some features in it immediately.  But, like Option 2 presented by John, you would not own the product and there is no way, currently, from the Cloud subscription back to owning the Creative Suite so the money you invest cannot go back into owning the product and once you stop subscribing it is gone.
