I have DW 12.0 where would I be able to obtain the most recent updates etc. before I take an online class on ONLC.com. to brush up and enhance my knowledge?

    Correct answer Jon Fritz

    DW CS6 is no longer sold or supported by Adobe.

    Adobe now sells DW as either a single app subscription, or as part of a full subscription to the Creative Cloud.

    Be very careful if you plan to purchase DW CS6 from an online resource. There seem to be far fewer legitimate copies of the program floating around than there are bogus ones. A very common scam in recent years has been the illegal sales of volume licenses to third party users. Everything will work, for a time, but when Adobe learns of the illegal sales and revokes the licenses being sold by the unauthorized seller, all of the victims of the scam end up losing their access to the program as well.

    DW 12.0 (CS6) is outdated by a good 6 versions now.

    There haven't been any updates for it since 2012, but they're available below.

    I assume I am better off buying the program all over then. Would this be

    accurate?

    Okay. I already had the old version I bought directly. I see now after

    beiong out of the realm for a while, everything seems to be cloud based and

    there are no discks, flash drives, etc. Do you know what folks are doing

    that do not want to deal with the subscription?

    Thanks again.


    Get Creative Cloud for a 7=day free trial and evaluate it for yourself without further obligation.  Prepare yourself.  A LOT HAS CHANGED since 2012 when CS6 came out.    Find out which version your course is teaching so you can keep up with the course.

    CS6 is perfectly acceptable software for making modern sites providing you work with code and don't rely too heavily on design panels.  Also it will never be updated to work on modern operating systems.  So at some point, it may stop working altogether.
