I own CS 5 Design Premium. Reading the FAQs, it seems I am eligible to upgrade to CS 6 but I can't find the upgrade to purchase and download. I can't upgrade to CC because $49 per month is too much for me -- I don't use this product for work. The $29 offer seems reasonable but $49 is way too much. I don't need the majority of the programs included in CC, but subscribing to just three of them will cost way more. Really not sure what to do here 😞

    I believe the $29 offer is only for the first year, so you would end up paying the $49 later on.

    Thanks Ned. I did find this page, however it isn't an upgrade. I have been purchasing Adobe products for years so that I could just pay the upgrade price for current products. With the current system, I would be paying much more than I would for an upgrade. For example, I have been using my version of CS for at least three years. The upgrade cost me $750 so that comes out to around $21 per month. I guess I have no options as far as upgrading except for paying for the overpriced CC. Oh well, time to start looking for alternatives. It was just so convenient to have the same programs at home that I use at work.

    I don't know which specific product you are after but as far as I know they are all offered as either Full or Upgrade purchases.  After you click the Buy option, the very first line is "I want to buy" with a drop down list next to it that gives the options for Full and Upgrade (Full shows initially)... click it and choose Upgrade.  Then choose which product you already own in the next line and see the upgrade price.
