Click on the Buy button next to it. If you have a prior qualifying version change the "Type" drop-down to "License Upgrade". Otherwise, leave it as "Full License". Then select the other options OS, Language, etc. You'll get a full license, not a time-based subscription. So, you may have to buy the license from Adobe's authorized reseller. This solution is not actually a solution, because all of the steps described above lead ONLY to monthly subscription options.
The one-time purchase options described above cannot be reached by following the steps described above. The official reply I got from Adobe is that this is a mistake that affects the US only and should be fixed within a few days. In the meantime you can purchase Acrobat via the phone. Where I am located Acrobat Pro costs The Standard version costs Only the subscription license allows installation on either platform.
The default platform is PC. Choose Mac as the platform if you have Mac OS. Thanks for the clarification! You need to find the exact name of the version you have a license for. What used to be called Acrobat DC is now called Acrobat , or or , etc. The name "DC" is now used only for the subscription-based version. If you purchased it directly from Adobe as a digital download it should still be available under your Adobe account. I have ordered three for employees and they work fabulously.
Unfortunately, we need Pro and its capabilities in our business. With that said, we have not found any pdf software that compares to what Adobe Acrobat Pro can do. Believe me, we have looked and bought with only great disappointment in the end. IMO, competitors don't compare to the OG at least not in real world applications. I've been using an Education Edition of Acrobat 8 for years. Has Adobe lost their minds?? Way to screw your customers. YOU aren't their customer. Corporations are.
That's where there money comes from. The cost is highway robery and only affordable by them. Actually, if you've been using an educational copy of Acrobat 8 for more than 10 years, perhaps you aren't the loyal customer you think you are What's stopping you from using open-source PDF viewers or editors, exactly? I Googled for some time on this issue and found no clear or consistent answers, so am pposting here in hope of getting an understandable answer.
Out of interest, I believe Amazon Workspaces uses Win Server with the Windows desktop experience - maybe that has something to do with it? Minimum System requirements for Cloud Programs Thanks John for the prompt response and citing those docs. I think either Amazon or Adobe are missing a trick here and leaving customers with a serious cloud adoption issue.
Moving desktops to the cloud is a valid business benefit. However, there are no real contenders for much of the software that Adobe provide. Cutsomers are therefore in a rock-and-hard-place situation here. Could anyone else who sees this as an issue please 'like' my original question - we need to bring some kind of focus to this and get it fixed. Overall our desktop applications continue to take advantage of the latest hardware that is available to enhance the creative output of your work.
Some of the most recent advances in Photoshop and Premiere Pro use Adobe Sensei to offload the heavy work to a cloud-based solution. The applications themselves, though continue to be demanding and require direct access to the hardware that is installed on the computer. Server-based solutions typically attempt to emulate this hardware, with some measure of success.
You can use the feedback link that John has referenced, but overall I doubt you will see our desktop applications ever supporting virtual environments. It is more likely we will create new creative solutions that will work in these types of environments.
A similar process has been used with our mobile applications for iOS and Android. We have often taken the best features of our desktop products and then optimize them for a mobile perspective.
Thanks Jeff. This is the bit where I bleat on about why the mighty Adobe should change its policy. Painful to write but has to be done. Adobe may need to revisit the revenue potential for virtualised desktop services as many of the technical weeknesses that you hint at are no longer the case.
I fear there may be a religious position being adopted and its truly not that clear cut. Regarding licencing I perfectly appreciate the need for licence revenue control, Having been working in corporate software for 30 years I get the edginess about single-user products moving onto a potential multi-user platform, but MS, Amazon and others have this under control. All Amazon Web Services Windows desktops run under controlled licence conditions - no one is sharing or pirating. And when its time to add more power, we simply visit the console and voila the machine has more disk, memory or cpu.
The virtual desktops are operated by recognisable organisations and available in a legal territory to suit your needs. In summary, someone at Adobe should re-visit the virtual desktop world - there's money on the table there for the taking with minimal technical or reputational risk.
There is the longer term consieration that some Adobe competitor might come along and build a niche on virtualise platforms so for market preservation someone at Adobe HQ really should mandate a review.
Oh - and customers might be quite pleased too, especially the bigger ticket corporates. But I won't be holding my breath for an early solution. I'm trying to use aws virtual machine so that I can do testing. I have licenses that I can use to install which is fine, but it will not install a creative cloud on the machine. I authenticate through the browser but the app doesn't continue the installation process.
Hi Waynecto - I have nothing positive to report on my original quest for a way of running Adobe graphics products on AWS. The last response from an Adobe source was 'sorry but we aren't changing anytime soon'. I hope they get a grip on the situation sometime soon but its not available now. Good luck. JEE, thank you for posting that issue. I am the systems director for a chain of 5 newspapers.
The solution worked great. We reduced cost to a quarter or a fifth and achieved total freedom for telecomuting Now, since last year, we are running into problems with Cloud Manager and we are seeing more and more incompatible applications. I have posted in the forums and called Adobe with no anwser worth mentioning, and ditto with Amazon forums.
I believe that part of the problem may be with the features it might require from newer builds of Windows. I see that windows server in the background of Workspaces is build 16xx. That build does not include universal windows platform UWP , which I suspect Adobe may be increasingly using to create applications that work in different environments and form factors.
Current build of Windows for workstations is I do not remember exactly, but I think the problem goes away with build 17xx. There is probably something more, otherwise Amazon would have updated the server OS to a more current version.
Whatever the problem actually is, I find it narrow minded and shortsited not to pay attention to this issue. Adobe cannot expect that future production structures will be based in physical local instances, and Amazon should be aware that there are still large production ventures based on Adobe.
I suspect that, as I do, many other people cannot really afford to backtrack from virtual solutions, in the long run somebody else will fill Adbe's void as you said Or some other cloud service will come up with a solution. If you are using more than aws wrkspaces, you can take your own server OS and pay for your own Microsoft licenses Folder path : enter the path to the destination folder that will host the exported files.
