I have Photoshop CS2 Education edition. Would I be able to buy the Regular CS4 Upgrade without any problems?

I don't believe you can upgrade the education versions.
#2
If you're in the North American region, then yes. You'll need to check with Adobe for other areas of the world.

Yes you can upgrade to the commercial version. There's no such thing as an educational-price upgrade, but your education version qualifies for the regular upgrade.

I have Photoshop CS2 Education version. Lent it to a friend and not sure it came back with everything in the box. Can someone tell me what came with this version - how many disks, etc.
Thank you.

I can wager it came back with one less activation. :)

That's pretty much a direct violation of the TOS, isn't it?
#7
pretty much.
#8
I agree :)

Not only did you violate the license by lending it to your friend you have violated by selling it to your friend.
It's just this type of thing that caused Adobe to institute activation.

I did not sell it to anyone, nor did she download anything. She was looking at the manual to see if it was something she could use in her business. She would get the most recent version anyway.
But, back to my original question. I believe she lost some of the disks, therefore, for those of you who have CS2 Eduation version, what disks came with the package?

I believe I have the CS2 educational version.
It comes with 4 installer disks and 2 resource/extra disks.

"There's no such thing as an educational-price upgrade, but your education version qualifies for the regular upgrade. "
www.studica.com sells educational versions of software. The cost for an enrolled university student is equivalent to the commercial upgrade for PS CS4 - so there is no gain by a previous PS owner in purchasing an educational version - other than to have two independent versions of PS.

If someone asked me if they could borrow my Photoshop disks to evaluate whether or not they could use it for their business. I would inform them that Adobe has a fully functional 30 demo they can download and use.
As a student you have much to learn grasshopper.

Just to verify, if I have CS3 Extended educational version can I upgrade to CS4 non-extended or do I have to go to CS4 Extended? I'm in the US.
Thanks,
Chris

You cannot upgrade down to a lesser version of Photoshop. Specifically, you cannot "upgrade" your Extended to Regular.
If you are still a student, then buying the academic version of just Photoshop would be the way to go, otherwise, you can only upgrade what you have to the same or better version.

Oh yes you can! Several people have done it and reported in these forums.
You have to jump through a lot of hoops with Customer service though.
