message: CS3 is such a huge release, it should have its own article, while this article is about CS2. possibly after CS3 is actually released. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Gamersedge (talk • contribs) 22:43, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It is already released - just havn't shipped. There is already enough information on the web, and Adobe's website has already been replaced by CS3 info. I don't see why we require a separate article about CS2 because it is quite short and doesn't contain much information. A 'History' section is enough. Besides, Adobe Creative Suite refers to both CS2 or CS3, with CS3 replacing CS2, so there is no need to disambiguate them.Pikablu0530 11:43, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

message: I added a line that Adobe is currently accepting pre-orders on their website, but I think we should put something down for the price of these packages.

message: It seems like they changed the icon for Contribute from "Co" (as shown in the wheel) to "Ct" (in the new icons displayed).
Also, what does "Vc" stand for (on the yellow icon)? I'm pretty sure that is not for Version Cue CS3 because if you check out the official Adobe website, the icon for Version Cue is teal-like colour. Both the yellow "Vc" icon and the actual icon for Version Cue (the teal one) are on the wheel-of-icons. So what does "Vc" represent? Pikablu0530 02:15, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The blog that the wheel is from links to a 3-D "carousel" version at The Flash Blog, which identifies (at least by name) all but two of the icons.  Both the yellow and teal icons in question are identified as Version Cue.  Obviously this isn't hard evidence, but since Version Cue's product page shows only the teal version, it seems they abandoned both the yellow color scheme and the letters in the icon design at some point(s). 128.84.178.24 19:50, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

Doing a simple Google search on "Adobe CS3 Installation", without any negative term, will return at least 100 articles (I'm too lazy to look beyond this) about the CS3 installer problem.  Titles like "CS3 installation problems" "...headache" "...horror" "...punishing experience" "...failure" are ubuquitous.  There are articles on Adobe forums, Adobe KB, countless blogs and independant forums.  But as far as I can tell, there isn't what one might call an "authoritative" source on this; I wonder why the major journals haven't mentioned this... but then major journals don't often mention this kind of things. o (talk) 13:39, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Torrent not provided 

message: Adobe's upgrade policy is that the Creative Suite can be upgraded only to later versions of the Creative Suite. If you buy the Suite and then later decide you want to upgrade only one component of it, you have to pay the full price for the new version of that component, just as if you had no prior version. This is not made clear by Adobe and I think it would be useful to mention it here. However, (a) I'm not sure how best to fit it into the existing Wikipedia page, and (b) I can't provide a link to a Web page that states the policy clearly, because Adobe doesn't seem to provide such a Web page. I have had it clarified to me by Adobe support personnel, after I asked why my Photoshop upgrade refused to install. Torve (talk) 14:59, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  CS5 Edition Matrix 

message: 1)  What exactly is included in the package?  Are there any guides? Are there any manuals?  Even the Adobe web site doesn't say, but I bet they aren't, and don't tell you so you order thinking there is.  Then they offer to sell you some at unreasonable prices.  Regardless, it is information that should be here.
2)  The fact that Adobe has the worst security vulnerabilities in the history of COTS is very important.  Over more than a decade Adobe products stretch the limits of vulnerabilities... e.g. June 2009 critical (severe and important) vulnerabilities were reported for 'authplay' and 'flashplayer' across most versions of these common components shared by many Adobe products.  1 year later, June 2010 the same 2 components were found to have additional "critical" vulnerabilities.  In conjunction with this, the exploits were discovered "in the wild" (actual cases) and the instructions and specifications for exploiting these vulnerabilities were publically published on the net.  Seems to me they are too old and feeble to retool the products properly and the critical vulnerabilities will obviously continue as long as Adobe offers products for sale.  Imagine 1 year later they are still finding major things wrong with products that were supposedly fixed. - DD  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.103.152.52 (talk) 11:47, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

I just removed CS Live from the list of included software.

message: Would it be noteworthy that Adobe has been giving away CS2 for free and continues to do, ever since they've shut down the original registration servers for CS2? Mac Users may encounter problems with the old installs on newer versions of MacOS, but especially Win Users up to Win7 and 8 can officially download and install all of CS2 Standard and Premium for free from the Adobe website now: http://www.adobe.com/de/downloads/cs2_downloads/ In order to make sure that only users who paid for CS2 to begin with will be able to make use of this, the downloadable installs require the original disks to be inserted in order to run. Also works with Adobe Production Studio disks (as is the case with me) that was available in parallel to CS2.
It's especially useful for people like me who still can't afford updating their legal hardware and software but for some reason need to install the Suite again and then find that their original disks for themselves don't work anymore because Adobe shut down the registration servers years ago. --85.182.140.98 (talk) 12:36, 15 April 2013 (UTC)

message: Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to  on Adobe Creative Suite. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add  after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add  to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:
*Attempted to fix sourcing for http://www.adobe.com/downloads/cs2_downloads/index.html
