Not possible to deactivate CS4 - after installing CS5.5

Hello

Today I installed my new CS5.5 update on my Mac and now I wanted to disable and uninstall my old Suite CS4 - but it won't work.

And Yes, I've already checked my firewall - off - but no luck.

I tried to disable it in Photoshop, Illustrator and Flash - same problem.

Can I now uninstall CS4 from my Mac without disabling?

Any idea what the problem might be?

Thank you for any suspicion

If you follow the instructions to disable the software but is not working for some reason, then you should just contact support Adobe - they really are the only ones who can help and can manually disable the database on their end.

  • Remove the CS4 after installing CS5 - cloudy

    Hi, I removed CS4 after working with CS5 for awhile. Now, all the .jpg, .cr2 etc are more related to the PS in Windows Explorer. I tried to add a link to them, but Photoshop is not in the list of possible programs and manually choosing PS by navigating to the folder of programs is not be accepted. Even in the bridge, doubleclicking a jpg now opens Powerpoint, something I really don't need :-)

    Any ideas? I ran the installer from the CD again, but nothing helped.

    Christoph

    Looks like that in the recesses Sun from my memory, others with similar problems should change something in the registry.  But only a search to find this thread.

    You have tinkered with file associations?  In bridge, go to edit/preferences/file Healt.  Set the default CS5 for file types.

    OS, go into Control Panel, default programs, associate files.

    I hope this helps.

  • Can not update after installing CS5 for hard drive nine, help?

    I installed CS5 Design Premium for my new hard drive, the installation was successful. However, the update has failed. Feedback from the failure: "there was an error downloading this update.

    Thanks HK online help that does not give me the solution immediately because CS5 support has ceased. However, she suggests to find and install Adobe Application Manager 5.0.

  • System restarts continuously after installed CS5

    I have a workstation CS5 here I took out of service a few months ago because he was showing signs of corruption of the operating system and possibly a virus. After you play with it for a while, I did a rebuild of bare metal, start of shaped both drives and reset the default system BIOS. The system has worked well for 6-7 hours during the installation of Windows and configuration, driver DL and update, etc. After that I installed CS5 Master Collection, he returned to his old behavior.

    ASUS M4A88T-M mobo, Athlon II CPU, 8 GB of RAM, 250 GB boot drive, data of 1 TB, crappy mobo ATi graphics card with NVidia GTX260 primary, Win7 Home Premium disc.

    The system starts and gives a login screen, if I do nothing, 2 minutes later he made a stop and restart. If I connect to one of the two users accounts, he gets to load the Office before saying "Disconnection" and then stop and restart. This is the behavior that led me to consider out of service (and resisted all attempts to fix-I couldn't even turn off before CS5 it would turn). It runs in safe mode a bit longer (in fact, it would HAVE before--did not since reconstruction), but by selecting "not automatically restart" at the time of the start-up has no effect.

    It is possible that it is a hardware fault or firmware, but the quirk of the system works fine until CS5 was installed points to something has changed to a configuration of boot/startup/initial level, well before any CS5 app is started.

    I moved since long CS5.5 and CC, but I maintain this system for work on some shared customer projects. I have little need back up soon. If anyone has any better ideas I'll try a new card mother and (if necessary) an another reconstruction. Very frustrating...

    ANY ideas on what aspect of CS5 could be the cause and how to enter and fix it without yet another reconstruction and another license to success that will probably require a call to Adobe of difficulty? I think it must be some remaining fragment of the instructions of the Windows Installer, try to finish a step of the installation and not come out. Or...?

    Found. It was an incredibly evasive bootkit TDSS virus who survived a format of bare metal and OS install and expressed only by chance. Headless Windows malware tool he and TDSSkiller stomped out. All updates not installed, no other problems. The question, and more of the virus has been actively doing, was that it prevented a security update critical installer, which has created one list of other problems related to the update.

    By far, the malware nastiest I ever had to deal with. But fixed.

    Kudos to Kaspersky to make the available TDDS remover for free.

  • Uninstall or disable CS4 before installing CS5?

    (Win 7 64, Production Premium CS4)

    I know this question has been asked a lot; I read a dozen of discussions on the subject, but I can't find a definitive answer... so I thought I would ask:

    Should I uninstall Prod Prem CS4 first, before installing CS5 Prod Prem?

    Is there a risk that CS5 upgrade Setup does not, because he can't 'see' a before, version of qualification?

    (maybe the CS5 Installer needs to find some CS4 files to validate the upgrade?)

    I thank you all.

    PS - I would like to run both versions at the same time, but I'm trying to save space on my OS/Apps drive, which is an SSD.

    Thanks again,

    Richard

    Oh well, thanks anyway - I spoke with Support Chat Adobe and got the answer-, Adobe recommends that to keep the existing version and the upgrade next to him, but if you want to save space, you can uninstall (and disable) first CS4.

    The CS5 upgrade installer does not need to 'see' all files in an earlier version, you simply use your CS4 (or whatever the version you're upgrading to) serial number for activate CS5.5.

  • problem reinstalling FB4 bonus after installing CS5 MC on windows 7 64 bit

    Hello

    I was hoping I could get help with a problem: I filed a technical request (ticket) with Adobe but I also wanted to reach out here.

    Background:

    I installed FB4 Premium in March and had no problems with the download or installation - everyhting worked very well. Yesterday I installed CS5 MC and installing it wrote debugging flash player versions that come in FB4 premium with standard flash drive too. Of course, that won't work with FB4 so I need to find a way to reinstall the debug version of flash player plugin and active x. After trying in vain for so that to do this, I decided that it would just be easier to uninstall and reinstall the FB4 download which I still had on my machine, as this comes with players of debugging that I need. Big mistake. Now, I can't reinstall FB4. I get the following error messages when executing the installation set-up (see downloaded the error message below image). Any thoughts on how I can fix this? I tried several reboots, installations and even re-downlaoded FB4 again from the Adobe store. It seems that the MC5 presecne caused this somehow? I'm running windows 7 pro 64-bit. Moreover, I understand how to reinstall the flash debug player-(too late) I should first run a script to remove the existing flash rather drive than to simply uninstall it. If someone needs the script or help on this made me know.

    Hanks a lot - it left me speechless.

    Hi Bob,

    CS5 MC includes FB4, so after MC is installed, it is not necessary for installation FB4 separately.

    The standard compared to the Premium editions are controlled by the various SNs:

    -If you are in CS5 trial mode, you will always be in mode Premium for FB4

    -After you have applied a MC CS5 serial number, you will be in mode Standard for FB4.

    [Side: I agree that MC should include award-winning FB4 instead of the standard, but that's another story.]

    If you want to upgrade to premium Standard FB4, there are master instructions for how to do this posted here (among others):

  • Uninstalling CS3 after installing CS5.5?

    I have already installed CS5.5 standard on my laptop and kept CS3 until I was competent.  What is the best procedure now Uninstall CS3 and free up HARD drive space?  Win7 64 bit OS.  Do I need to deactivate CS3 or this will stop the newest software to run?

    Different versions operate independently, so deactivate CS3 has no effect on the CS5.5. However, the uninstall don't - it lmess wil to associations of files and the shared components. So the only way to do is to uninstall everything, then only reinstall CS5.5.

  • Panasonic 50 1080 p files is not possible in PPro CS4

    The European model of new records Panasonic camera AVCHD 1080 p 50 (called SD700 in Europe) which is a big advantage.

    http://www.Panasonic.co.UK/HTML/en_GB/products/camcorders/HD+camcorders/hdc-SD700/overview /3422617/index.html

    The problem is, there is almost no NLE can handle this format. I would like to change this material in Premiere CS4 but I had no luck.

    Can I import those clips into a modified with framerate 50 p model. When I like to return the timeline for better preview or export it with the MediaEncoder I don't get an error message like "this format is not possible.

    I can create a 720p50 sequence and import this material of 50 p, then everything works fine. But a sequence with the native resolution and framerate - no chance. I even tried with Cineform NeoHD. I can convert it without any problems, but when I import this material in the first I have the same problems.

    Any other material like 1080i50 works without any problem on the front.

    I am not alone with this problem, a lot of people here in Germany have the same problem and nobody has found a solution so far. We talk in several forums, but without success.

    Here's an original clip directly from this camera (size 40 MB):

    Helmut,

    Well, I don't know what is the problem; I am able to import, edit and export the images very well. Check out a file H.264 50 fps 640 x 360, I exported here. I put up a custom sequence, although it seems that the tent to use MPEG2 for the codec to preview isn't possible, so I did the following in place:

    Note that you will need fast disks to serve files for previewing uncompressed; You can try other available codecs, with the exception of the DV codecs that won't work for the size of the order.

    What you are trying to export to you get the error message? I can help you to implement a correct encoding preset for that...

  • Can I install Adobe Acrobat 8 on the new computer laptop if it is not possible to deactivate on old PC?

    I have Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional that I installed on my PC in 2007. My PC has renounced the shadow and the shop where took to a now destroyed the hard drive for me, so I can't disable the software before installing again on my new laptop which has Windows 8. The shop seem to have copied the file shortcut to the new laptop, but nothing else. Can I reinstall without disabling the previous software?

    You may be able to make it work. If you have a 64 bit system, as many are today, then you may have more trouble.

    If you need to adjust the activation, it is something that must be done with Adobe directly. Two facilities are generally licensed for every copy of Acrobat you have, so you can have a left.

    Suppose you manage the installation. The first step is to install the updates (especially for a 64-bit system). You may be able to make updates in the Help menu (assuming that Acrobat opens). If you need to install manually, go to http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows and install updates in the order. To download from the most recent backwards, because each update tells you the previous update required for installation. In general, just restart after the update.

    To test your system, first check the features of Acrobat and Distiller programs by selecting from the menu of programs (or the Metro interface). If you have a PS file available, check the processing of this file by Distiller to check on the creation of PDF files. Then, try to print from an application to the Adobe PDF printer. If it works, fine. If this is not the case, try a print to a file and open the file in Distiller to create a PDF file. If the printing process is running, then try to WORD or other product of MS that could have the PDF Maker inside. See if you can create a PDF from this application. The only way to know for sure to try it. Adobe does not certify AA8 for Win7 or Win8 as it was not tested. For Win7, several people have reported success.
