It is, I think, fairly common knowledge that a significant number of people have illegal copies of Photoshop CS. I keep coming across examples of this, and I'm surprised at how open people are about it, even on lineI paid a lot of money for my legitimate version of what is now CS6 (inc all the upgrades). How is it still possible for people to get illegal copies? Is it not possible to check an IP address when a legal or illegal owner starts Photoshop? Or is that not possible as some users don't have internet access on their Photoshop computer for antivirus reasons? Is there not another way to cut down on this activity?I really don't want to sound like an old wind-bag, but it really p.s me off.

There is just always a counterpart of private persons that are on the same or even a higher level than the companies when it comes to coding/programming/cracking. Just think anbout the Virus/Trojan Scene.

You will never be able to stop piracy with the kind of software distribution we have now.To me, it is very important though that stuff is available 'for free'. I would have never discovered my passion for graphic design and being able to experiment enough to become good enough to get the job I do have now with corel draw or paint net. I just didn't have the money for a legit copy of CS. And even when applying for a apprenticeship (is that the right word?) you are expected to be (very) familiar with PS/ID/ILLU. Sure, there are educational versions. But sometimes even that is too much money.In my opinion and experience people that are pirating professional software dont damage the business very much. Most of the people arent even able to use it on a professional base and just fool around with it and make a garage sale flyer once a month or so.

Like all the people with Steinberg Cubase are just mixing/djing some stuff for their 12-people house party and the Maya rippers make a crappy, rotating 3D logo for their gaming blog. The few who use illegal software on a business purpose or actually make money out of it are marginal. Just like myself. As long as I wasn't able to purchase the software I wanted to try out, work and get familiar with, I pirated it.

As soon as I got enough money I proudly bought my copy of the CS4 Master Collection and I know a lot of people doing it a same way.I know you can't imagine and probably won't believe me, but many people of the pirating scene are not that bad. I can assure you, no matter if it is software, games or music, people tend do buy the product eventually. They're just making kind of their own demo versions that some 'black sheep' abuse. You have a lot of people with illegal copies of Adobe producs, let's say 100.

As I mentioned, many of them are eventually going to buy a legit product/license, let's say 40, the rest doesnt. Now a big part of the people eventually buying it would have never ever even thought about buying that product later on, that could be 25 out of the 100.

That is my point. Sounds weird, but basically it's free advertising and acquisition.@MyleniumWow, thats rad. I worked for a lot of different, big companies (100-1600 employees). All of them were serious about licensing and legit software. Maybe that was only the bright side I saw.

I know there are some who try to sneak around proper licensing, but I really believe its not that much. Thats why I used the term 'in my experience'. Everyone experiences something else.

I'd like a new Audi A3 estate, but I can't afford one. The few who use illegal software on a business purpose or actually make money out of it are marginal.Not at all. I know entire companies running on cracked software and not having a single proper current license. In particular 'upgrade laziness' is a big issue. Some companies buy a version once, but then use cracked software for 'upgrades' because they feel they paid alot of money once and are entitled to get things free for the rest of eternity. Same whining we see here on this forum every day where people hang on to their 10 year old software and then explode when you tell them they need to buy a full new license.Mylenium. Is it not possible to check an IP address when a legal or illegal owner starts Photoshop?

Or is that not possible as some users don't have internet access on their Photoshop computer for antivirus reasons? Is there not another way to cut down on this activity?How should it? Most cracks I'm aware of simply prevent the activation system from contacting any Adobe servers and Adobe can't intervene in things they don't know about. It's as trivial as that. Anyway, it's beside the point.

Adobe could invest millions over millions in making their activation system even more rigid, but in the end it would only make life more difficult for the people who dutifulyl pay for their software. People that want to crack it will always find a way, no matter how hard it may be.Mylenium. The Photography plan has made a big difference. Before CC I am the only person I know of in my Camera Club who paid for their Adobe software.

At least half a dozen are legit now. In fact I helped someone install the Photography plan this Wednesday past, and they sheepishly admitted that they currently had a pirated version of CC2014 installed! I routinely ran the Cleaning Tool to remove any dodgy Registry hacks and CC installed without a hitch.What used to seriously bug me was not so much having to pay for all my Adobe apps, but having to pay at least 50% more than Adobe's American customers.

That has been fixed now, so it was obviously possible. I believe price gouging still applies in Europe though. I think the £ and $ prices are now the same in Europe as the US once the exchange rate is factored in.

Before web based distribution came in though Adobe in Edinburgh often were charging 50% more than the American price. As a student I used to buy all my software from a company in Scottsville Arizona, there were many American companies exporting back then-legally I may add, and even with the carriage you saved hundreds of pounds.It's funny how people who use cracked software seem to have a need to boast about it, almost saying aren't I clever like the guy above. I don't know if Adobe even try to track suspected pirates anymore as the fines are ridiculously small. The Daily Mirror newspaper in the UK was found operating cracked versions of Pagemaker a few years ago and was fined £20,000-not even the cost of an evenings print run.Dave discovered a pirate here a few days ago when he asked for the System Info Log. I didn't know this but the pirated versions have Licence Type: Perpetual in the log not License Type: Subscription as with the legal copies. You can't make it a requisite of using the forum that a System Info Log is posted I suppose, but it would prevent pirates from getting any help. Of course the smarter ones would edit the log so a screen capture would be needed-unworkable isn't it?

In 2013 I bought what I thought to be a legal copy of CS6 from what I thought was an authorized dealer. I downloaded it from the Adobe website the first time to a computer using the enclosed Serial Number with no problems. I have bought 2 new computers over the last 5 years and re-downloaded & installed it from the Adobe website using that same Serial Number again with no problems or flags that it was not legit.

Now today in 2018 I am told that this was and has always been a counterfeit copy. Novena nossa senhora desatadora dos nos pdf. How is that possible that it wasn't caught as a bogus copy 5 years ago and again 6 months ago when I put it on my newest computer? Offering me a letter to pursue the seller after 5 years is hardly any recourse as that seller is probably not in business any longer. I personally feel that Adobe just killed all the old SN and called them counterfeit to rip off people who still run the older versions and to make people keep paying for something they bought. Some unscrupulous sellers sold on 'seats' that were part of volume licences (aimed at companies) as individual licenses. When that illegal activity is identified the volume licence is stopped and the 'seats' also stop.

I don't know if that is the case with yours but it is a possibility.I do sympathise with those, like yourself, who have been ripped off by such sellers but it is those sellers at fault not Adobe.I still have a legitimate older version that still works on an old PC so your feeling that all old SNs are revoked is incorrect.Dave. The Master Collection cost about $4000 here in Europe, with an additional $1800 every 18 months. Over three cycles, 4.5 years, that's $7600, or roughly $1700 a year. That's a monthly price of one hundred and forty dollars.I understand prices were much lower in the US. So if we knock starting price down to $2500 - I don't know what it actually was - that's still around $1000 per year, or a little over $80 per month.A full Cloud subscription is $50 a month. No the math doesn't add up.The fact is that subscription reduced total cost over time substantially.
