    Open CS6 Extension manager.  It should ask if you want to migrate the extensions.

    Thanks Murray, But the only thing I see is to Import them into CS6, but not sure how to export them from DW CS4 ??? The import is looking for File Type of .mxp or .zxp But I can't seem to find them anyplace ???   Thanks again... Pat

    When you first open DWCS6's Extension manager it should offer to migrate your previously installed extensions. Did that *not* happen?

    Thanks for reply Murray... to answer your question: 'No, when I open extension manager I just get the standard options, Install, Manage Sets & Exchange'.

         In the tools drop down I see Import... but I'm not sure where to import the Cs4 extensions from. ???

     

    I forgot to mention I'm currently using the 30 day free trial DW CS6... Would that may a difference ???

    No, it would make no difference that you are using the trial.  I suppose your options now are limited.  Do you have the original MXP files?  If so, just reinstall from them.
