Adobe Creative Suite 3 Master Collection Trial Available


Recommended Posts

The Master Collection is now shipping and weighs in at over 12 GB. Unfortunately, Adobe is still not offering a trial download. Instead, you have to pay $25 for an evaluation DVD that can be converted to the full version with a product key.

Also, Adobe has locked it's download servers at "trials-staging.adobe.com" so it isn't possible to directly download the Creative Suite trials anymore. If anyone finds a link, please let me know and you'll save me $25.

...And the piracy rate for Photoshop has just increased tenfold.
I doubt Photoshop's piracy rate is much higher than it has always been. And I would bet that most of the people who pirate it wouldn't purchase the software even if they couldn't pirate it, so it's not a real loss for Adobe. Of course, the design agencies that pirate it are scum, but there's little to be done about that. And discounted software at universities provides a viable option for students/faculty/staff to consider giving Adobe their money.

Well these direct links to the trials still work, you might be able to fumble your way to a master collection if it is "online"

Mac versions are just in a "Mac" directory instead of the "Win" one, changing the extension to ".dmg".

Piracy is bad, buy Photoshop for making Neowin your sigs.

The college I go to has CS3, I just wonder how much they paid for that :unsure:

Adobe sells thousands of licenses to educational institutions for very, very low cost. I think my high school got some 1,500 CS2 licenses for about $110 per license or so.

cheliksel, to download the files from trials.adobe.com correctly, you should use a download manager. However, usually they don't work because of the required login. So I decided to try firefox with an add-on called DownThemAll. It works fine for me and the downloads suddenly became much bigger.

    • Because of the EU (a good thing) newer android devices been getting 5 years worth of security patches. Except some Motorola which found the loop hole, and offer ZERO updates. In addition, Google for years have been making where it can patch some stuff by updating the core Google Play Store itself.  As echoed earlier,  you take the security risk in to your own hand beyond supported.
