can someone please tell me can Elements 15 access more ram then 4gb on a 64bit system? I'm looking to upgrade Elements so I can use more of my 16gb of ram. Oh and I take it I can use the upgrade feature from Elements 9 to 15 ? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes and yes.

Why not download the free trial. You can see the amount of available ram by going to:

Yes. Just enter your serial number into the trial when you've decided to purchase.

An upgrade is the same as the full version only you enter an upgrade serial number.

Shop around though, you may be able to buy the full version of Elements 15 cheaper than the upgrade. The advantage of a full version serial number is that you won't need the version 9 serial number if you ever have to reinstall 15. With an upgrade you'll always need both serial numbers. Many people lose the earlier version serial number - not realizing that they need it - which leaves them dead in the water when they want to reinstall.

e.g.

Full version from Amazon currently US$60

Amazon.com: Adobe Photoshop Elements 15: Software

Full version from Adobe US$70

Upgrade version from Adobe US$80
