CS4 CS5 plugins updated

If I upgrade to Photoshop CS4, CS5, can I just copy all my plugins in the plugin CS4 to CS5 a folder? I assume here that my plugins are compatible with versions of Photoshop.

The short answer is Yes and no.

Some plugins need to be relocated, and those who may not know CS5 without an update of their manufacturer.  SOMETIMES, you can identify all the support files and copy them as well, but it becomes difficult.

Others, those who are autonomous and do not install the dll support, need registry entries, etc., can be copied.

A basic rule is that if you copied a file in the plug-ins folder to begin with, you can copy it to the new version of Photoshop.  From what I can see CS5 is very compatible with the old plug-ins (keeping in mind that the 32-bit plug-ins work only with 32-bit Photoshop CS5 and 64 - bit plug-ins work only with 64-bit Photoshop).

Never, but never point the parameter file additional to the old installation of Photoshop Plug-ins, because it has provided Adobe plug-ins that will come into conflict.

  • Disable the CS4, CS5 keep update on the computer, reinstall CS4 on another computer?

    I recently installed the CS5 upgrade on my work computer and it has not removed the CS4 apps I had previously. Is it possible to disable the CS4 version and install it on another computer? That way I could run CS5 on this computer and CS4 on another at the same time?

    Whereas Rafrafi Kulshresthaof response may be technically correct, it ignores the fact that you cannot Ungroup a version upgrade of the upgrade itself. After using a version of an Adobe application for an upgrade, you have effectively invalidated your license of the previous version except for the system that you have upgraded. In other words, in this case, you can let CS4 on the system that you upgraded to CS5, but by the end user license agreement, you cannot install, activate and use CS4 on another computer at the same time!

  • Photoshop CS4 CS5 ext update?

    If I have Photoshop CS4 Ext I have to upgrade to CS5 Ext to keep the Ext features or can I just upgrade to CS5 and retain the characteristics of my purchase of CS4 Ext Ext?

    Your CS5 would not have the Ext goodies, but if you let CS4 Ext on your computer, you can use them in this package. You will need to register your CS5 work in a CS4 compatible file.

    If you want that feature when you work in CS5, you will need to upgrade to CS5 ext.

  • is it still possible to update photoshop cs4 CS5?

  • Update CS4 CS5 with serial number incorrect from pc to mac

    I purchased CS4 a retailer recorded some time ago, but now when I try to save the download, it says the serial number is not valid. Now, I am unable to reach the dealer. I recently moved from pc to mac and want to purchse CS5. It is better to try to save the CS4, so I can benefit from the reduced rate to upgrade to CS5? Or change from pc to mac means I have to buy new software completely and pay full price?

    If I'm right, you are planning to buy CS5 where given by Mylenium article would not help because Adobe provides the platform of the latest swap.

    You will need to contact Adobe... They will check the CS4 serial number is valid or not... and will save it for you.

    Once registered you can immediately place the order for the CS5 on the reduced price for MAC, there will be no time to problem you have cs4 for mac or win

    You should be bothered to your CS4 serial number because if you buy the CS5 upgrade, when you install the product it will ask for the serial number cs4... .Hence get serial number verified otherwise, you will need to buy the new software completely.

    Depends on the number of series CS4, CS5 purchase is not the problem... you should have the correct serial number of cs4, get it checked.

  • CS5 CS6 update

    I bought the edu CS6 update to my CS5 edu. Because I don't want two versions of PS on my PC, I must uninstall CS5 CS6 pre-installation?

    Should I disable CS5 before unistall it?

    Furthermore, I have OnOne Perfect Suite 5.1 installed in CS5; should I uninstall with CS5 and then re-install after CS6?

    TIA

    Roberto

    Yes, unisntall and disable older versions, if you think you don't need them. Forget this idea with the following OnOne. Download the installer correct of the seller even if it may cost extra. CS5 Plugins can cause all sorts of terrible things in CS6...

  • The upgrade from versions CS4 CS5

    I recently purchased the CS5 upgrade and installed.  I thought it would just update my current CS4 phtoshop but it has installed a new program.  Is this correct?  How can I transfer my information located in Bridge CS4 and Photoshop CS4 CS5?  Remove the old version once I have done this?

    Thank you!

    Yes, it is correct in every way. Newer versions will never affect more older and install separately. Image metadata doesn't have to be transferred, CS5 will recognize the embedded data and sidecar XMP like CS4 has, since its stored in image files, not directories of the program. If you need to export configuration data, use the relevant options in the variaous for example to export panels brushes or styles. and Yes Men do not hesitate to uninstall CS4. Just beware that it can burst your file associations. The right way would be to uninstall CS4 and CS5, and then reinstall only CS5.

  • Upgrading student CS4 CS5 version

    I bought edition student CS4 a few years ago and am interested in upgrading to CS5.  I have since graduated and no longer to the edition of the students.  So I wonder if I can upgrade my version of CS4 to the current edition of non-students of CS5 or I have to buy the complete non-student edition?

    Thank you

    Studen versions with full rights upgrade. Make sure you buy the correct upgrade.

  • Export to CS4 CS5?

    INDD CS5 7.0 on Mac 10.5.8

    I have a brochure with jet-out pages (page so different sizes) I want to provide as CS4 work (and not PDF) to the printer, which did not update to CS5 because it is only available for Intel Macs (which they do not have either - Motorola only, I just found out).

    There may be some last minute changes I want their repro dept do is there any way I can save in CS4 CS5 so that they can modify it, if necessary?

    Thank you.

    If export you it to export file IDML, then they can open in CS4.

    BUT all the different page sizes would be maintained, i.e., they will all be the same size and not of different sizes you have in CS5.

    CS5 has that CS4 is lost in the translation by going backward in inDesign.

    I would say that they buy a decent computer (PC or MAC) and get a trial or upgrade their CS5 software.

    Otherwise, it seems that you will be an update files.

  • Collections and smart Collections migrate from Bridge CS4 CS5

    Please, any ideas on how to migrate my Bridge CS4 CS5 collections.

    I have many collections and I have no idea where they are stored, or if they are. There must be a way to re - use, otherwise is a feature that will bring problems on each update.

    Thank you

    Marc

    On Win7, they are stored in c:\Users\username> \AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Bridge CS4\Collections\ in the form of .filelist files, simply move them to the same folder tree but with CS5 instead of CS4

  • Disable the check for plugin updates

    Hi, we are using firefox on linux centos on about 1,000 computers. We use Firefox 10.0.7 ESR. For our applications, we need JRE1.6_17.

    The problem is that some of our intranet pages has stopped working. I discovered, that the java plugin has been disabled. It has been disabled because the user clicked Yes when asked that the plugin was old and it will be disabled.

    I tried to change the "plugins.update.url" in subject: config, but always found firefox, that the plugin is old.

    My questio is: is there a way to disable checking of plugin (at least for java plugin) in subject: config or by using a config file?

    I know that it is possible to do by clicking on, but if someone wants to do that on 1000 computers using several user profiles with machines to spread its 500 kilometres, please contact me.

    You will probably need to disable blocklisting and remove the current blocklist.xml file in order to avoid the plugins to have blocked.

    It is not really recommended, so be careful to make such a change.

  • Plugins updated but still get the plugin update tab

    I get the tab to update my plugins, I've updated everything and I disabled some. If all the plugins I use are green now.

    But everything I do, close the tab, restart, reboot, whatever... every time I start up Firefox tab plugin darn rises again. Also, I entered a new URL in subject: config, but I always hate to open 2 tabs.

    This issue is underway for more than a year, it seems, as I read all the mozilla support pages. I can't believe nobody found any solution to this, and mozilla didn't do something to fix this in their new version.

    I even uninstalled Firefox, nothing Firefox erased my windows registry and then installed the beta version of Firefox, and I always get the tab plugin update... really really boring!

    Doesn't anyone know how to get rid of this?

    This older plugin appeared on the topic: plugins page? The path revealed when you set plugin.expose_full_path incorrect?
