Question

Want to be sure of what I'm purchasing (perpetual license)

Hello,

 

I am interested in purchasing Photoshop Elements and maybe Premiere Elements. Someone gave me the link to this page: https://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-elements/buying-guide.html

 

However, I do not see details of what those purchases include, either on that page or when I click "Buy now".

 

1) Are these the payment option I want? I want to pay only once and then use this version of the program(s) for forever. I do not want a subscription payment plan.

2) Are these only for laptops/computers?

3) I see that there's a discounted "Student & Teacher Edition". Other than the price, what's the difference between the regular version and the Student & Teacher Edition?

 

Thank you for your time. Hope you all are well. My apologies if I messed up somewhere.

Be aware that “forever” is just a dream unless you freeze your computer and equipment. You are likely to need to buy again when some future system upgrade breaks what you paid for. Or if you get a new camera. Or want to use some other new gadget that isn’t invented yet.

I believe the full version sale price is less than the educator's price until tomorrow but check me out.

1 - one payment

2 - check the requirements http://www.adobe.com/products/elements-family.html

3 - you MUST be a student or teacher (and prove it) to buy education
