It is with great pleasure that I announce the shipping of Adobe Creative Suite 6 today! We’ve talked about it, we’ve sneaked it, we’ve announced it and now we’ve finally shipped it! That’s right, if you are upgrading to Creative Suite 6 you can download your copy today.
If you missed my webinar “Adobe Creative Cloud and CS6 for Designer”, where I showed the new CS6 versions of Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Muse and Photoshop Touch you can check out the replay right here:
I look forward to seeing many of you in person on the Adobe Creative Suite 6 World Tour!
Just finished watching your newest addition to youtube on CS6. I don’t like renting but admit your making the creative cloud sound attractive. I sure would have liked to have had you administer my acid test to your Muse site though, which is re-size text only and start hitting command plus. I’m guessing those are absolute positioning objects the text is in and there will be hell to pay!
Does this include Creative Cloud? While the Cloud terms & conditions updated today, I still don’t see apps there and the ship date on the pre-order no longer says May 7. Any hints there?
Thanks, Terry!
Richard, Creative Cloud goes live Friday!
Thanks for the info, Terry! That raises another question then: I have the PsCS6 beta installed. I understand from the Adobe site I should uninstall that before installing the final. If I transition to the released version with the 30-day trial, will it automatically become “licensed” once the Cloud goes live or will I need to download and install it again via the Cloud.
I suppose that question holds for all of the pieces of CS6. I’d love to start running InDesign CS6 now, rather than waiting until Friday, but I’ve opted for the Creative Cloud as my route forward. If I install any of the CS6 elements now, using the 30-day free trial, will they automatically transition to licensed software when the Cloud goes live or will I have to do some other magic incantation? Thanks for your help figuring out this brave new world, Terry!

I purchased the Older version 5.5 on May 2 with the promise of a free upgrade to PS CS6 extended. I have heard nothing from Adobe on how I am supposed to get the free upgrade. I would think they would have notified all the people who purchased recently that the upgrade was available and how to get it.

Hi Terry!, we meet today at the Adobe Creative Suite Presentation, in Santiago Chile (at the hotel W)
I´m Bárbara Garrido, a student of Graphic Design at the Mayor University in Santiago de Chile.
First of all i want to thank you for the presentation i liked very much, your speech an explanation was very interesting an funny =)
lamentably, we (the students) felt discriminated by the organization of the congress. We had to wait for more than 40 minutes to enter to the auditorium, because the organization give preference to the businessmen, or workers. They did´n give us a chance to enter an see the first video, so we missed; after the presentation ended, everybody answered (filled) an survey from Adobe Presentation, with that sheet everybody except us received a gift. I really don´t mind about the material things, but i can´t stand the fact that we were treated in a different way. I know that you are obviously not the responsible for this, but i would be very happy if you can explained to the Company, or if you are still in Chile, let them know. We supposed to be prospective clients, in fact we are already.
I hope this request don´t bother you.
Thank you again for the presentation today, for your joy and sympathy =)
Grettings!
Bárbara Garrido
Hi Terry,
Where can i contact you to send some bugs that i found in InDesign CS6? I dont want to do it here…
If you have bugs to report it’s best to report them through the proper channel so that they can be addressed: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
As a small time print magazine, my company always was really tight on budgets and most of our work was done on freeware or older and cheaper software. Now that we’re going digital with a blog and e-Zine it was really important we had the best software to roll out an issue every week. I found this video http://bit.ly/LGJTxz of the new Adobe CS6 for Design and web and showed it to our CEO. We’ve already ordered our copy http://shop.adobe.com/in?sdid=JUMTL, although we dedicated more than 50% of our annual budget to it! Will definitely help us improve our work quality and rate, so we’ll recover the cost very soon!
Hi Terry,
Im currently working on some brand guidelines for a client and im designing it using DPS Indesign CS6.
I want to be able to give the app/new stand version of the final digital book to the design team on the client side. I want them to be able to run it on all their ipads. How do i share a finished app with a select group of people without going through the app store? Can you please direct me to a step by step guide to getting this done. Not that great with apple certificats and alike.
Thanks a keep up the great work!
You can share a Folio with someone else using the Folio Builder panel flyout menu. The person on the other end will need the Adobe Content Viewer to see it.
Thanks for that terry. Could you please direct me to that in indesign. Im not that versed. Are their screen shots you can share?
Also, is their no other way i can send it to them where they download a link on their ipad and it appears in their newstand?
