I bought my Photoshop CS5 on April21st with the promise of getting a free upgrade to CS6 when it was released. Then i was told i would receive an e-mail with a coupon code or voucher to get the free CS6 upgrade, but i haven't received anything yet. How do i get the free CS6 upgrade?

    I did not get my free upgrade from cs5 to cs6, where is it?

    That ship sailed long ago.  This discussion is 7 years out of date.   Creative Suite is discontinued and no longer available.

    Hi.

    I qualified for a downloadable complimentary upgrade to Audition CS6 from the boxed version of Audition 

    CS5.5 Upgrade. If, like me, you are not a volume license customer, you won't be notified - you'll have 

    to request the upgrade.

    This page will help you:

    All the best,

    Steve.

    That was helpful, but it still didn't tell me how i could request the upgrade. It just said that within ten days of my purchase date or after CS6 was released, an e-mail would be sent. Obviously i didn't get one, but i still haven't found any place to request anything.

    Exactly the question I had. Promos at the time said late May. Can't get any later than 5/31. So, what's the story, Adobe?
