How to legally sell my Adobe Dreamweaver

[GoodPeopleFlags]

Last year, I bought Dreamweaver CS5 through Adobe at the student discount price. I struggled through the class I needed it for and I realize now that I will never use Dreamweaver again. I don't plan on doing much website design and if I needed to, I'd prefer to use Joomla. So, I'd like to sell my Dreamweaver legally. How can I do that?

•Important: Educational versions of Adobe products are not eligible for a transfer of license. Educational versions of Macromedia-branded products, however, can be transferred to a new owner.

from the adobe site

Crap. I should've checked that out first.

I thought that I might not be able to sell it to just *anyone* since I bought it at a discount but I was hoping that I could somehow transfer it to another student, as long as they can prove they are, like I did when I bought it.

Sounds like it can be transferred. It is a Macromedia product.

+1 you can transfer Dreamweaver because it is definitely a Macromedia Branded product. Look here.

Cool! Now I just have to figure out how to do it. I'll read up on it in a little while. Yea!!! Thanks, guys!

How did you have to prove that you were a student?

some actually require to enter your social and fill out a form indicating your school. They keep the information on a database. ALSO, some schools have to verified as an acceptable College.

EDIT:
Ive used journeyed.com in the past for Adobe CS3 Master Collection, Adobe CS4 Master Collection Upgrade, 3DS Max, CorelDraw 14, and Microsoft Office. I save a great deal of money using them, but i see Amazon and Newegg are offering deals to college students now.

They will die first before they got my SS#.
That is an abuse of the account number.

I wouldn't do that either. I have yet to be asked for my social when I was getting student discounts either for student professional (office) or any of the adobe products that I got before I got CS4 and now my CS 5 Master Suite.

Now I did have to go through a lot of hoops to get it, but giving my social was not one of them. I wouldn't have done it period if that was the case.

I didn't have to give them my ss#. I scanned and uploaded copies of my student picture ID and my current class schedule to prove I was currently enrolled - not to prove I needed the software for a particular class. My school was already on their "verified" list.

All you need is a collage ID

Collage ID? Is that what you get when you photoshop your picture and a fake address onto somebody elses ID so you can buy beer at 19?

HA! All I had to do was prove I could spell "college".

In the past I just bought a copy of Creative Suite from the college book store, installed it and it worked...Only # the bookstore wanted was my CC#....

my apologies, i meant the last 4 as giving my social.

What kind of deal did you get with your CS 5 Master Suite?

Does the student version have all the same features as the regular version?

Do you know if there are any functional restrictions?

its really just the same thing, i have yet ever to find any restrictions or limitations. Only that you are "saying" you are using it just for school

Design Standard for Mac on Newegg.

If you go to an actual college approved by Journeyed.com you can get the design standard for mac or pc for 199.99 if i recall.

 

[GoodPeopleFlags]

Yes, as I recall I paid $200.00 for it. And that was through Adobe. There aren't any differences between the regular and student versions except for the price.
