Hey, I don't intend to purchase, just interested which versions of Media Encoder, Photoshop and After Effects are no longer for sale. And if it is still possible to purchase them somehow.

This topic has been closed for replies.

Correct answer John T Smith

The only versions available with a Cloud subscription are the current (whatever that is) and ONE previous version

Anything older than current+1 is no longer available... and anyone purporting to offer old(er) versions is not doing so as a LEGAL Adobe sales agent

>Creative Suite 6 out of support or still getting updates?

No support and no updates

Adobe has removed ALL public download links for installs and updates
-PPro CS6 install is dated March 2012 with the final 6.05 update dated August 2013
-CS6 (and earlier) are no longer sold or supported by Adobe

+1 means the previous version. So last year's version remains available, but not for purchase of course.

How's last year's version remains available? What do you mean by previous version? Premiere Pro 2020 14.3.1.45 - which number? 14.3.1.0? 14.3.0.45? 14.2.1.45? 14.3.1.45?

I understand that current+1 means only the last two versions, say in one month two versions are coming out, all the previous versions are not available, is that true?

The version number for 14.3.1.0 14.3.0.45 14.2.1.45 14.3.1.45 is 14. A new version comes out about once a year. What comes out more often is a new "release". You can usually only get the latest RELEASE of the last two VERSIONS.

No longer for sale:

Creative Suite 6 and earlier.

Accessible Creative Cloud versions (by subscription only):

The current version + 1 previous.

Thank you for letting me know. Is Creative Suite 6 out of support or still getting updates?

And how many versions is current+1? Is it like Premiere Pro 2020 14.3.1.45 to 13.3.1.45 which is a lot, or to 14.3.0.45?

There are No Adobe products for Sale.

You can Subscribe to one of the subscription plans available but they are either monthly payments or pay up front for the whole year. But if you stop the payments the programs stop working.

Oh really? This is very useful information. So from what I understand I can't at all get software let's say from last year. Current+1 it's not much at all.
