Uninstalling CS3 after installing CS5.5?

• Uninstalling CS3 and install CS5.5 (Master Collection)

  I bought CS 5.5 master collection so that I could use this CS3 master collection on another older machine.  My question is this: what is the best way to uninstall CS3 Master collection on my current machine (Windows 7-64 bit) so I can then install new version full CS5.5 master collection? Also, should I be aware of as much as on the old settings of backup software?  Just try to avoid headaches.

  The only thing you need to worry is all "presets" that you have created yourself. So actions, swatches, brushes, etc. must be saved. Its best to uninstall before installing cs5 cs3 and not after, as this can cause problems with file associations.

  If the second computer that your intend to put cs3 on is your only other computer, you should be able to use cs5 on it instead, that the license is supposed to be for the 2 systems, but only one can run at a time. To my knowledge, this license does consider the version number of the software. So if cs5 if on your new system and a laptop for example, do not put cs3 on a third computer because the license is for what I assume to be an upgrade.

  If you have paid the full price, then the last paragraph is a moot point.

• 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):

• 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. Quit and try again later. "When I press the customer support for comments, he directs me to a web saying:" error "this serial number is not for a product calling..." "" When you install an upgrade or upsell.

  So, I ask for the help of discussion online and asked me to seek help from the Forum after got my serial number.

  Help, please.

  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. However, I have not found the software but I found one (probably 8.0). This is the application for creative cloud Manager.

  After that, I ran the new update and the problem is solved with an exception handler extention that update is still capable.

• 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.

• 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.

• Uninstall fails after installing the Hyper-V role

  I installed VMWare Workstation 7.1.3 on my Windows Server 2008 R2 server to temporarily host some virtual machines. Since then, I installed the Hyper-V role on this server and migrated the Hyper-v hosts. Now I want to uninstall VMWare Workstation, but when I try to do it via the Control Panel programs and features, I receive the inherited error message: "[uninstall] error: this product cannot be installed on Windows XP or later." Windows 95, 98, ME, NT and 2000 are not supported. [OK] "obviously, this message is in error, but in doing some research, I have determined that this error means that the installer refuses to start on systems that have Hyper-V installed.

  Is there a version of the installer that allows you to uninstall VMWare Workstation correctly? If not, are there plans to fix this hole? I have to any other option that follow described here manual uninstall procedure? I don't trust the manual uninstall procedure because they understand too gourmet suggestions such as 'Remove your appdata directory' (see uninstallation manual step 5B). Uninstall Hyper-V at this point is not a viable option.

  It should be relatively simple to add an option to the installer to bypass verification of Hyper-V (and then use the uninstall option command in the seat).

  only chance: Add a bootoption on the server so that it can start with disabled HyperV

  1. At the command prompt, type the following:
     bcdedit /copy {default} /d "No hypervisor".
  2. The above command should say: the entry has been copied successfully to {guid}. Copy the guid to the Clipboard, including the braces.
  3. Now, type the following command:
     bcdedit/set {guid_hvoff} off hypervisorlaunchtype
     In the above command, replace {guid_hvoff} with what you copied in step 2. The command above simply sets a property in the boot entry that will not load the hypervisor at startup.

  then restart option not HyperV and uninstall

• Uninstall CS4 after installed CC?

  Hello

  I have CS4 Design Premium installed on my Windows7 PC.

  Since then, I have subscribed to the creative cloud and downloaded some apps (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, DW).

  I'm likely to have problems if I let the older CS4 applications on my PC, or should I uninstall them, and if so what is the best way to go about this?

  Thanks for your help - Duncan

  Hi DMuri,

  You can safely uninstall CS4 products for this, you can use Add and remove program on your windows entries to remove these products.

  Thank you

• 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.

• When I install CS5.5 (upgrade) in a new computer, it says that there are no old version in the computer. I have older versions CS3 and 1.1 What do I have to install them also?

  When I install CS5.5 (upgrade) in a new computer, it says that there are no old version in the computer. I have older versions CS3 and 1.1 What do I have to install them also?

  Laughing out loud

  but after you have entered your serial number of cs5.5, the installer will search your computer for cs3.  Unable to find the Setup program will present a drop-down list of previous versions.  Select cs3.  you will be prompt to enter the serial number for cs3.

  Enter the correct number at the right time and proceed with the installation.

• I must first install CS3 on Windows 7 64 bit before installing CS5 Upgrade?

  I am replacing a graphic designer Windows Vista laptop with a desktop Dell Precision T5500 computer.  Should I Uninstall CS3 from the laptop and the serial number of decommissioned?  Then I have to install CS3 on the new desktop before installing CS5 upgrade?  I was told that I had to put the installation out of service, but I don't remember having to do with the other facilities.  Thanks in advance!

  Certainly, you should disable all software before uninstalling. But do not install CS3-CS5. Just having the serial number handy for checking. That said, according to the needs of the user, you can let CS3 available.
