I’m doing some stuff that I’m going to need full photoshop for and I was wondering if anyone knows of any special offers/upgrades right now for Elements owners. I checked the one in Ray’s old thread, but that was expired. Is there anything recent?
Pete, I wonder about that academic full edition…. I thought sales of those were restricted to teachers and students. Also, would likely not be able to apply the upgrade package for PS8 when it comes out – not that that would be a big stumbling block for those who would be satisfied with PS8. Also, the upgrade packages generally do not work with Elements or even the PS5 ‘Special Edition" that came bundled with many digital cameras a year or two ago.
Good questions Chuck. Barbara may well be a teacher as far as we know or maybe she is buying it for one. The other questions I guess would have to be directed to the seller and/or Adobe.
Barbara > Thanks, Pete. Which address did you use?
I just clicked reply (instead of "reply group") on Outlook Express Newsreader. That usually sends a reply to the individual that posted. But maybe you don’t use an ‘active’ e mail address on the forum?
I hear ya. That Yahoo address I use here gets over 100 junk e mails daily and they all get dumped at once with the empty button. Spam filter seems to work putting all the junk into a bulk mail folder. But I sometimes wonder if I have dumped mail I wanted?
Mark is our hero!!! I sure hope Barbara sees this. How in the world did you find it? I remembered the last offer at this price was for owners of Microtek scanners, but I sure didn’t have any luck finding this on the Adobe site. Nice work. 🙂
"Not I", said the Little Red Hen. My guess is that Adobe wouldn’t quibble, although I suppose there’s the chance serial numbers issued for Microtek products could have distinctive numbers.
Chuck? Are you out there? Didn’t you order your version of PS 7.0 using a special offer designed for a specific group – of which you weren’t really a member? 🙂
Beth, I took advantage of that once-in-a-lifetime offering to registered Elements users to upgrade; the catch was that I didn’t receive any notification but rather benefitted from a posting of the website address here on the forum. However, when I placed the order, it was accepted, I bought it, it’s registered, etc.
This is one of the threads from dpreview regarding the deal. This guy said he got it and knows that others did as well without the microtek purchase. If you put your serial number in on the Adobe upgrade page and it goes through, I’d say watch for the UPS guy.
I’m home today, and several more because I had an x-ray on Friday of my foot that I hurt about three weeks ago. One of the bones is broken so I’m going to be home (wearing a boot) a lot more for a while. Beth, weren’t you on the disabled list recently?
Mark, ah poor thing ;( I slightly knocked the back of my heel a couple of weeks ago and it turned into a painful affair. Within a few hours I could barely walk. My foot turned black and blue ! …it was only a slight bump !! Anyways, after about 5 days i was fine but now i have and ‘extra’ little bone sticking out the side of my heel….what a freak thing that was. Hope you get better soon…put your feet up !
Ray, I’m sorry you couldn’t send me mail…you got mine though right ??
Pete, ya ya probably deleted the mail i sent ya ;(

Does anyone know for sure whether it works if you don’t have a microtek scanner?
YES! I didn’t actually finish going through all the steps to purchase, but I got as far as Adobe accepting my info and asking for Visa card #. I gave them the serial @ from my elements 2 and they took it.
I just might take them up on the offer in a month or so. I just purchased a DVD burner, so for a few monts, I better lay off the card.
Beast way to find your serial #… Help>register>register on line…… Simply copy the number and paste it into the order page. Works like a charm….Or as they used to say "in like Flyn".
Pete, Nope, i haven’t received any mail from you. Apparently i need to make another phone call to my isp. I have to cool down a bit though before I call…if not, they may send me a virus !!! Seriously though, I’m getting freekin worm mail but not mail i’m suppose to get ?? Well, I just got mail from my mom up in Quebec so i know it’s working to and from Canada. I’m getting extremely tired of this whole thing. I may switch to broadband soon… ‘may’.
Yes, Mark, I was on the disabled list all right! First it was the broken hip, and then it was the broken leg. And now the funny part (well, sad actually, but I have to laugh) – I had some routine exrays done a month of so ago. The nurse called a couple of days later and said the doctor wanted to know when I’d broken my right foot – he couldn’t find a note about that in the file. Sheesh. I "walked" right through that one!! I figure it must have been in December when I went in for the cortisone shot, thinking something else was wrong. No wonder the shot didn’t work. I’m pathetic. See why I spend so much time sitting at this computer annoying all of the Elements people?!
I hope you’re up and around shortly. Not being able to walk is really a drag. You have my sincere sympathy. 🙂
