 Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Premium Upgrade [Mac]Apr 05, 2010
The product is great but the shipping sucks. The product went from Arizona, to Federal Way Washington (I'm in Tacoma Washington), to California and back to Washington state. The packaging was damaged when it arrived, one DVD was slightly scratched, but it still loaded ok. I'll choose UPS or FedEx and pay a little more from now on.

 Problem with AmazonJan 25, 2010
I purchased this item for my son who ended up returning it within a month. It shows up as a credit on my Amazon order account. However, they never credited my Amazon credit card for the return. Unfoftunately I did not see this problem until December. Now it seems questionable as to whether I will receive a credit to my account as it has been almoost six months. The credit card company for Amazon (Chase) blew me off. The customer service department for Amazon, located in Costa Rica, will not give me a confirmation number although they say they will send me an email. The customer service is poor for the Amazon credit card and Amazon. I will not be ordering anything from Amazon again unless they refund my money.

Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Premium Upgrade difficult to installJan 23, 2010
Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Premium Upgrade is a wonderful product, but installation was extremely difficult for me. I was upgrading from CS2, which was on the list on Adobe's website as acceptable for upgrades. However, because I was installing on a PowerPC G5 Mac using OS Tiger and Safari 4, I kept getting an Installer Alert message. I called the toll-free number to Adobe Support, and they said that the disc was not compatible with Safari 4, and I would have to use Safari 3.2.1. Only the problem is, it is impossible to uninstall Safari without reinstalling my OS! After trying in vain to get rid of Safari, I ended up having to erase my entire hard drive and reinstall Tiger. Then I had to go through the onerous task of reinstalling all my applications and upgrading to Safari 3.2.1. Finally, I started to install CS4, but now it wouldn't accept my previous version os CS2, only giving me options to upgrade from CS3! So back on the phone to Adobe, and after much deliberation, they gave me a challenge code and response, which allowed the discs to install. So, after days of painstaking work, I am finally the proud owner of Adobe CS4! Why doesn't Adobe warn you that it is not compatible with Tiger Safari 4?

Beware! Adobe has gone downhillAug 25, 2009
I have used Adobe design products and suites for over 10 years. For the past 2 years I have been trying to install CS3 on the 2nd computer which is allowed in the license. Conflicts with Leopard were the early problem, now I still can't install. Customer support is outsourced overseas to people who know far far less than I about fixes. I had already tried all the ones they suggested. A supervisor finally agreed that the disk had a defect and asked customer support (also overseas) to send me a new one, but customer support said they have no more DVD's and sent me to an ftp download link that doesn't work. Both customer service and technical support has become very very poor and very, very slow for this once proud company. My advice, unless there is a new feature you absolutely must have, don't upgrade. If you must have one element, buy only that component, not the suite. Adobe's products have become, sadly, very buggy and there is no support.
Best Upgrade Yet!May 29, 2009
Adobe did it again with the improvements for CS4. Being a graphic designer, I'm always looking for ways to make my job easier or more effiecient. I also have to have software cross platforms so that I can keep my customers corporate identity across the board from logos to marketing printing, to the website. I highly recommend this upgrade.
