I just bought and downloaded the Adobe Flash CS5.5 Upgrade version, and I'm upgrading from Macromedia Flash 8 Professional.
I also just installed Flash 8 on my computer today, and entered the (legitimate) serial number, too. I had purchased that back when it was out, and I'm hoping to finally upgrade today so I don't have to use anymore trials.
When Installing the Upgrade, it said it could not find compatible software. How do I get it to recognize my Flash 8?
I'm running on a up-to-date PC with Windows 7.
I also assumed restarting the computer would work, but did not.
Knickolaus when I view our upgrade information it is showing Macromedia Flash Professional or Basic 8 should be accepted when you enter the serial number for the eligible product.
