Hi, I would like to upgrade my CS5 to CS6. Upon entering the old serial number when installing, I get an error message saying that the old serial number is not for a compatible product. How can I resolve the issue?

Hi, thanks for your reply. They are for CS5 Design Standard and CS6 Design Standard.

I don't see any reason for the mention of not being compatible if they are the same collections.  The only thing I can suggest is that you try contacting Adobe Support thru chat.  They might help since this is a CS6 matter.

For the link below click the Still Need Help? option in the blue area at the bottom and choose the chat option...
