Hello All, like the title says I have Photoshop Elements 6 and wanted to upgrade. I know this is a dinosaur of a product, so please be nice. This is just for some hobby stuff, nothing I do for work. I got Elements back in 2006 just to fill the need at the time, and never saw the need to buy again. I was recently looking at the latest version of Elements and thought that it finally may be time for an upgrade. As far as I understand, Elements really is the only subscription free product from Adobe.
I just had some questions about the Adobe purchases though.
It does say that you can install in 2 computers, and it looks like its linked to your Adobe ID. What happens if one PC fails and you cant deregister? Is there any sort of fail safe to put the product on PCs after? Any sort of remote de-registeration?
My other question was about internet connection. It should be a problem, but generally I dislike programs that are dependent on an internet connection. I’d be able to use it offline right? Maybe just lack in the AI features or whatnot? Is there a time frame that I would need to go back online to make sure I can keep using the product?
Sorry if these are dumb questions, but a few years ago I got burnt out on Adobe. I needed a copy of Acrobat, but realized that your options are a subscription, or you can buy a copy, but for $400. After looking at various options, I just went on ebay and got a copy of 2010’s Acrobat X Pro, best purchase ever. It does what I need it to, can install wherever I want, not connected online, wish I did it sooner. Sometimes I wish I had newer features, but I don't think I’m going to be getting a newer version of Acrobat anytime soon.
Thats a little backround about what makes me slightly hesitant about purchasing a current Adobe product, and any insight is appreciated, thank you!
