Two versions of Photoshop

I just installed Photoshop CS6 on my iMac and I thought that it would automatically replace CS5, but it did not.  Now, I have two versions of Photoshop on my computer.  Just uninstall version CS5?  I don't need two versions and they take a lot of memory space.  Is there a reason that I need to keep both versions on my computer?  Please notify.  Thank you.

You can uninstall CS5 if you prefer.  In general, Creative Suites do not replace older versions when installed.  In some cases, this is desirable, as with Flash where his ability to save in the older versions, you must have these versions (or next to him). I don't know if Photoshop has problems of version although the native photoshop (psd) files likely to note that.

  • two versions of photoshop open at the same time

    I've updated Photoshop CC last week and now have CC Photoshop and Photoshop CC 2014 in my applications folder. When I open a file created in Photoshop, it opens up Photoshop. However, if I open another Photoshop file (by double-clicking it), it opens a second Photoshop application (instead of the Photoshop application that is already open)... so I have two Photoshops open at the same time. And both are CC versions.

    What gives?

    You must be on a Mac will arrive not under windows. Are you sure that both versions of Photoshop open is CC 14.2.1.  Did you use menu help > about Photoshop since the two windows in Photoshop?

    I know that you have two versions of Photoshop on your computer, as I have the same 2015 and CS6. However, I'm not sure about the language. It might be possible. The only thing is that some actions may not work properly because they might need to get information from the BONE, which is only in one language.

  • Problem upgrade version Adobe Photoshop CS3, to Photoshop CS4.

    Hi, hope someone can help, Adobe does not support older versions of Photoshop apparently...

    I had Adobe PS CS3 installed on my laptop wife.  But his HARD disk was giving problems, so I've migrated the o/s to a new hard drive to SSD.

    Now, I install the software back, I have successfully installed Adobe Photoshop CS3 and recorded it, I then tried to install the upgrade for CS3 DVD:

    Photoshop CS4, but it fails to insert the code. The code for the CS4 update is accepted OK but when it asks for the serial number for Photoshop CS3 already installed and registered, he said that this serial number is not recognized. I can't seem to work around this problem, and it is very annoying. I have received for the two versions and they were bought from reputable companys Unfortunately it was a few years ago, so probably no help now.

    The last time that happened a few years back, I contacted Adobe who talked through the process that required a different number series and another method

    I can not remember now.  I got this DVD upgrade for awhile and it's a shame if we are unable to make use.


    I use Adobe CC on my desktop doesn't have is no need for that. But my wife likes the older versions of Photoshop.

    appreciate if someone knows how to work around this problem, currently installed upgrading to CS4 trial version to get past the nag screen.

  • Layer mask groups converted from work plans to the size of the artboard in older versions of Photoshop

    I wanted to start this post as an idea, but I couldn't choose communities (it wouldn't let me), so here it is posted...

    ----

    Just came across this with a customer...

    I use for a mobile design project work plans, and I just got a screenshot with some texts asking why among work plans were really great. Way bigger than a phone. (I'm under NDA and cannot post the screenshot, but imagine there are a lot of iPhone size work plans and two of them seem to be at a right angle)

    I opened the file and on my end, everything is the right size. Remembering the weeks ago to tell the customer that they need to update their version of Photoshop for all this work correctly, I have take a look at the screenshot and see that they are on CC2014 - none of the work plans.

    What I'm asking here, is that, since we have data, plans of work are objects of a defined size and 'alive', why not just use these data to hide layer groups at the opening of the PSD / PSB (PSB in my case) in older versions of Photoshop?

    It could save you a TON of hassle and confusion.

    Hi Zack,

    High level to your query response is: no, there is no conduct business case for a general solution to what you are suggesting. So I don't see what is happening.

    I say that as someone who likes to give back and forth and backward compatibility.

    There are two parts of the problem that you raise. They are related and somewhat intertwined.

    1. Having the version previous (2014) do something reasonable with the data from the version the most recent (2015). Either the old version should be taught on the most recent data so it can make a decision about what to do, or the newer version must put additional data in the file format for consumption by the older version.
    2. Back and forth between versions. As you say, a much more difficult problem. In fact, we do a good job of that today. But we must be sure that whatever we do for (1) not to damage and back the wrong way.

    Let's be very clear: 2014 will not be touched, except for critical bugs, absolutely. And even before 2015 is released, it would have not been corrected to make it behave better with work plans. There is no way that I could see what is happening. So all we have done for better backward compatibility had to be entirely done within 2015.

    For the round trip, the general problem is something like this: we want to 2014 to read an object that has properties of 2015, he does not understand. While we might learn ch to keep these properties as opaque property, must also have rules for when these properties are not valid and thrown on the floor. Probably, if the object is changed. But not always. And sometimes when another object parent is changed. And so on. Right now, we destroy them unknown content from their reading in the old version. Make us and record what we understand. As a user, you receive an alert telling you that we are do this. It's the safest thing to do.

    There are special cases where a developer can see an opportunity to preserve a level of backward compatibility and back and forth. We try to do if we believe that it is safe. But this scenario happens only occasionally.

    In the case of work plans, made us really think about this: If we added a mask to the group for backward compatibility, it should do something with this mask reading around 2015. And what would happen if the user edited this mask in 2014 and opened upward in 2015 - and who edited mask do not align with the structures of the artboard? Things started to get dark quickly. We started to see traps. The workflow together to sheath special round trip had to be tested and verified. The cost was rising and this expense must be filtered through a cost/value trade-off. And then what happens when we add a new property to the structure of work plan? At these efforts for nothing?

    So we compromised with what you have today. Work plans become groups in 2014. The Group and the layer structure remains intact. Doesn't secretly add us and remove masks for the round trip. You can safely change the groups to your heart's content. When return you this document in 2015, you redo the work plans of the groups. Was not clear and safe way to do more than that given the time that we had.

    Take a step back and think about your problem, it doesn't seem to be a value to a script that converts group work plans + layer masks for your workflow to have your documents that is consumed by the customers of 2014. This would be carried out in 2015 because she would need understand the work plans. And maybe vice versa from 2014 to 2015, assuming that the documents were not published in a hostile way. We're not likely to write such a script as a generic tool, but someone competent with script might be able to do this.

    More that I intend to write, but hopefully, it gives you additional insight in the compromises that we have faced.
