I am looking to upgrade my Adobe Creative Suite from 5.5 to 6 and switch from a PC to a Mac platform. Is this possible?

    No.  CS6 is no longer sold, supported or updated.  The perpetual licensed versions are over.

    There is no upgrade path now except to join the Creative Cloud.

    On a paid plan, you have access to the very latest versions CC 2017 and previous versions going all the way back to CS6.

    Hi, similar to this I'm in a situation where I would like to platform exchange CS6 from Mac to Windows. Will Adobe allow me to do this or will they tell me to upgrade to CC? Thanks.
