Conflict of InDesign CS3 and CS5 installation

Hello

We have Indesign CS3 installed and plan to upgrade to CS5. Is there a conflict by installing both version into one system? We want to keep the CS3 version.

DennisM

Both versions can coexist on the machine of the CAs, and I highly recommend you keep CS3 available.

In addition, it is advisable to NEVER overwrite the version CS3 when convering CS5. There is no possible way to get a saved file CS5 to CS3 not CS4. Moreover, even if this isn't the norm, there are frequent reports of problems with the bad files conducted after the conversion of CS3 to CS5, I am now recommending export from CS3 .inx and opeing in CS5 instead of the .indd.

  • InDesign CS3 - Photoshop CS5 conflict?

    I want to upgrade Photoshop CS4 CS5, but am concerned about a report on the luminous landscape Forum where a Member claims that its unusable InDesign CS3 install PS CS5 made.  According to him, "" Photoshop CS5 modifies some files of database type in common files > Adobe diectories, that totally prevent Indesign similarly start. ' "

    Of discussion forum at http://luminous-landscape.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=43396

    Has anyone seen other similar reports or had this experience?  Now I'm working on a project where I am forced to use InDesign CS3 (and not a newer version) so cannot take a chance that the new Photoshop will be screw things with ID3.

    You don't mention your operating system. I just installed the trial on my test XP workstation and indeed had a breakdown of the AMT subsystem - you must reinstall closed warning and ID CS3.

    I have downloaded and run the Flexnet http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=3750&fileID=3528 patch and all is well.

    I don't know what all this patch, since apparently it's a reapir for Acrobat 8 running Vista, but if memeory serves it reliable to resolve this particular error on all versions of Windows with any version of Acrobat.

  • files between cs3 and cs5 compatibility

    Hello

    What are the issues of the compatilibity between Photoshop CS3 and CS5?  Can they be used together without much (if any) questions?

    Thank you.

    They can happily coexist on the same system, as long as you have the disk space.  Photoshop has always been like that.

    You will be able to run one at a time, at a given moment, however.

    About the compatibility of files, I did not how many it is necessary to open a file in Photoshop CS3, but the new version offers a preference setting "Maximize compatibility" to save the .psd files.  On occasion, I opened the .psd file in Photoshop CS3 saved by CS5 (using the parameter above) and I didn't know all the problems at all.

  • Keep InDesign CS3 when CS4 installation

    I need to keep InDesign CS3 on my PC for compatibility with colleagues, but upgrade to CS4. Can I keep both? (One of our printers wants certain things in CS2, and it of also on my computer and works very well.)

    I'm upgrading from my standalone CS3 to CS4 a stand-alone. By the way, also have the Web Standard Suite CS4 installed (does not inDesign), which caused no problems with the help of the autonomous CS3 to InDesign.

    Any help would be appreciated. I really don't want to have to disable or remove CS3.

    I have InDesign CS3 and standalone CS4 installed on my desktop PC at home with CS4 Web Premium. No problems.

    Had a recent computer breakdown and had to wipe the HD. I'm ready to recharge both my CS3 Extended so my CS5 upgrade disk drive then. However, in looking at my Adobe account it shows only my CS5, CS3 registration registration. What I do in this situation?

    you just need to know your serial numbers cs5 and cs3 (and those that should be stored locally) and the installation of cs5 file.

  • How to restore good export PDF from InDesign CS3 or CS5 in Snow Leopard?

    I had no problem to export to PDF from InDesign CS3 files (on a Mac Pro running Snow Leopard 10.6.4) until last weekend, when all the fonts appear bitmap or thin and rough, and the images lost color depth and contrast. When I copied the InDesign document to my MacBook Pro laptop, also running 10.6.4 the PDF has emerged with its original quality. Support calls Adobe referred me to the incompatibilities between Snow Leopard and InDesign documents. One of these documents was several pages long, but I could not print from the Adobe to my HP website all-in-one Officejet, because one-third of the document was hidden under a white board. This makes it impractical for the troubleshooting document, because I don't have enough screen real estate (even on a 23-inch screen) to let the open document and all the pages and dialogue boxes needed for reference. Back to the phone and chat support, I was told to upgrade my Creative Suite Premium CS3 to CS5 ($ 800!) and buy the updated Acrobat Pro ($200), with no guarantee that this cost of $1,000 would actually solve the problem. I downloaded the trial version of InDesign CS5, and it has NOT solved the problem. I am also afraid that the problem did not exist before last weekend. Before that, my CS3 and Snow Leopard combination worked very well. Then I checked the forums and was appalled by the variety of issues related to PDF files, for which there seems to be no general solution. Meanwhile, I have hundreds of ads, I'm supposed to be prepare and e-mailing as evidence PDF to businesses nationwide. I have two books of 120 with 256 pages to be submitted to printers in PDF format with all kinds of fonts and files image belonging to my clients. The last time I presented a paper on a printer by electronic mail, the work went perfectly. This time and the next, it is obvious, that I won't be able to send a PDF file to all! If this is the case, my activities related to the directories of 27 will be unable to absorb the expenditures necessary to start all over again with software and new computers, and I'll be out of business. Period. Yes - someone ' an at - it a way to solve this problem? Surely, I would be grateful.

  • Different fonts between CS3 and CS5 on Win7 system using the same fonts directory

    I have several files created in Fireworks CS3 that work very well. Fonts are all installed in the directory system on my Win7 box.  This used to be a WinXP Pro box.

    I can load a file in Fireworks CS3 without a single question and text everything seems perfect. As it should.  Close the CS3 open CS5 and load the same file and CS5 tells me I must update my fonts.  Why?  Same system, the same fonts in the same font directory. Only thing that's changed, it's that I open the file (s) in CS5.

    The fonts look the same in CS5.  I'll have to redo all the Fireworks CS3 files so that it looks correct in CS5? If so, why?

    Here is a sample image of the way it is supposed to look like. The Swift gets watered. PlazaDUtil is the police. I'd hate to have to redo all my files logo.

  • You can run Photoshop CS3 and CS5 on the same system?

    I've done it before on another system where I had CS2 and CS3 installed and I could run either version, when I wanted.  At the time I have just never bothered to uninstall CS2.

    Now on this system, I'm tunning CS3 and I have some plug-ins that I use regularly and that are not compatible with CS5 and I'm not throwing new money for them.  So I wish I could install CS5 and especially use it but when I need to use the plug ins and then just switch to CS3.

    I noticed that a lot of programs does not these days on top another version.  So is there a reason that I won't be able to run them both?

    Altogether.  All versions of Photoshop can coexist at the same time, even if you can only run one at a time.

    It is usual to not install the older version, until you don't know than new not work very well.  If you have the space, never uninstall.  It is convenient to have around to answer questions, here for example.

  • CS3 and CS5 on the same computer

    I am currently using CS3 on Mac with Leopard, and I'm about to update to CS5.  I have read the discussions on the problems of compatibility between the two versions, so I would keep CS3 on my computer, even after the addition of CS5.  That would be a problem?

    Also, I guess I've upgraded to Snow Leopard to run CS5, but which will then be expected to create problems when I need to work on older files in CS3?  Thanks for any advice.

    No.... It is not a problem, but files INDD doublclicking automatically open them in CS5.

  • InDesign CS3 crashes when trying to print using OS x 10.7 Lion

    Since the installation of Lion, passing of snow leopard, InDesign does not print, but crashes when you try to get the print dialog box. I can print by generating the PDF of the document, and then print from Acrobat 8.3.0. It of a workaround, but what should I do to be able to print from InDesign, the use of Lion, for my EPSON WorkForce 635 printer now.

    Everything worked fine in Snow Leopard, but I don't want to go back to an older OS now.

  • Conversion in Design CS3 to CS5

    We have recently improved InDesign CS3 to CS5. We have a bunch of models created in CS3, but wanted to convert CS5. Is there a way to do it or we just save as in CS5?

  • A copy of InDesign CS3

    Hello

    I have just been offered some work by a company using InDesign CS3, and I am struggling to find a copy or a copy of the CS 4 or 5 which is backward compatible. One of my friends said he believes that buying CS6 will make you eligible for a download of an earlier version to help with problems of this kind. Anyone know it if this is the case, and if so, how do you get the old copy?

    Thanks for your help!

    No, get a license for CS6 does not give you a license that will allow you to install and activate any previous version!

  • A question about a difference between CS3 and CS6 (sorry if this is a mistake addressed)

    When placed in InDesign (CS3 and CS6) a transparent tif (CMYK) image, there is a difference between those who are created in Photoshop CS3 (correct) and CS6 (white background). Why?

    Ask in the forum ID and provide all the necessary information such as profiles of colors used layer styles, TIFF, saving options and so on.

  • Once again: too dark prints after the CS3 to CS5 upgrade

    Hi, I know this has been discussed before, but I have not found a solution to my problem in the existing threads. Probably missing me something obvious, and perhaps someone here can point out he me.

    I recently updated from CS3 to CS5. In the two editions of photoshop I followed the recipe of Eric Chan to set up the print workflow: http://people.csail.mit.edu/ericchan/dp/Epson3800/printworkflow.html. In CS3, everything works as expected, i.e. Printing corresponds to the test. Print the image even from the same computer/monitor in CS5 product which is much darker than the softproof printing or printing from CS3.

    In case this is relevant, my psd files are all in Adobe RGB 1998, I use the print Epson provided (v5.51) for the Stylus 3800 diver. I use the icc profile for Epson exhibition fiber paper, which is what I print on. The conversion method is Relative calorimetric with verified Blackpoint Compensation. Photoshop runs on a Windows XP SP3 32-bit computer.

    Any suggestions? Are there settings that are not mentioned in the description of Eric Chan I should look to find the source of the difference? Is there anything that could explain the different random draws?

    Thank you!

    > I printed the wacked out of CS3 and CS5 image. In CS3, everything looks good, i.e. the test corresponds to printing. In CS5 the test seems identical to CS3, but printing is dark.

    This is useful information, a kind of conversion took place or the footprints would be blue

    immediately I notice you're using different printer profiles in photoshop CS3 and CS5 print dialog (the text in your screenshot is too blurred to read)

    I have no way of knowing if you have used the same profile in Proofing

    But if photoshop softproof does not match the impression that something is happening, the question is: what?
