I could get another 4-5 years out of it unless DW suddenly includes something that I simply couldn't do without - that sadly has not happened in CS5, CS6 or the 2 CC versions.ĭW is now really aimed at more of an 'amatuer' market and doesnt really include anything for the seasoned developer that is critical to the workflow. I'm still running CS4 on Yosemite and it works like a dream. Of couse as you say it might be curtailed if it stops running on your current OS. It's a decision you need to weigh up for yourself.Īdobe still offers as far back as CS2 for download so I should hardly think CS6 is on the radar for switching off the activation licenses. On the other hand, it might continue to work for many years. If it stops working because of changes in operating systems or Adobe finally turns off the activation servers, you're stuck. The perpetual licence allows you to use the software indefinitely for a single payment, but I wouldn't describe it as being a 'lifetime licence', except in the sense of the lifetime of the software. It's a decision you need to weigh up for yourself. When Adobe moved to the subscription system, it said it would make CS6 available for the foreseeable future, but that no updates would be made, unless a major security risk were discovered. If you want to buy it, you can find a Buy CS6 link at the top left of the following page: Dreamweaver Help | Help and tutorials‌. The current version of Dreamweaver (CC 2014.1) is version 15, so CS6 is already considerably out of date, and not officially supported by Adobe.

The only version that's still available with a perpetual licence is Dreamweaver CS6 (version 12), which was released three years ago. UPDATE: Adobe stopped selliing Creative Suite in 2017, 3 years after this thread began. You cannot buy Dreamweaver CC on a perpetual licence.
