Right after CS4 was released, we noticed alot of the same gripe flooding in: why can’t we upgrade a single application from an older version of Creative Suite? I counted 30+ for Photoshop alone and many others filed under General Bitching:
How about allowing us to upgrade portions of a collection instead of the whole thing. I want to only upgrade PHOTOSHOP every year and a half.
How about letting us upgrade Photoshop from a Suite Series without having to upgrade the whole frickin thing???
Why would you allow some to upgrade photoshop from elements when they paid $99 but someone who paid $1700 for creative suite has to upgrade the whole lot?
Originally we thought that this was possible, so after some digging online we decided to go straight to the source for some confirmation from product managers at Adobe. Today we got our response:
Yes, unfortunately this one is true. We are looking to see what solutions we can possibly provide to work around this issue.
If we hear any more on this, we’ll be sure to let everyone know. In the meantime, let’s do an informal poll: if you own an older version of Creative Suite, what apps would you upgrade?
