Can CS 5.5 co-exist with CS4?

OK here's the story
I am using Win 7 - 64 bit, with 4 GB memory, approximately 9 TB storage. I have used CS 4 since it was released, bought CS 5 (did not install it) then I bought CS 5.5, installed it yesterday. I wanted to keep both CS 4 & CS 5.5 on the same computer since CS4 was doing good (not crashing too much). After I installed CS 5.5, I opened and converted a CS 4 project to test CS 5.5. It seemed to work. Today I came in and tried to open the same project, CS5.5 crashed every time I tried to open it. I then tried to open the project in CS 4, but it would not let me. Since the client was here for the final edit, I had to un-install CS 5.5, so I could open the project in CS 4 and complete it. So the question is - If I re-install CS 5.5 on my edit computer that has CS 4 on it, can I keep both versions without problems?
Another question..... I keep two edit systems in operation (sitting beside each other) the second edit system as a backup for tight deadlines. I also have to take my laptop on locations to edit. Can I install CS 5.5 on the two main edit computers and CS 5 on my laptop... if so, will CS 5 open a project saved in CS 5.5?

There is no reason that having Premiere Pro CS4 and Premiere Pro CS5.5 on the same computer should cause problems. Most people around here have multiple versions on the same comptuer without problems.
Please file a detailed bug report so that we can look into what's causing your specific crashing problem.

No.

  • I can't use some .avi files with CS4

    I have 2 computers. One with W7 64 bits and PP CS5 and a laptop with Vista 32bits, so I had to install PP CS4 provided with Adobe CS5-5 production premium.
    I have a problem with CS4 (as it works with my CS5): some.avi files are not read by CS4 as some other (.avi, .mp4, .m2ts) are read! I can install the file on the timeline, but only the sound is read, no pictures!
    I'm not a specialist in computer, neither in Premire Pro, and my english is very bad (Yes, I know, I'm french...) ! Any idea of what to do, please ?
    Thank you so much.

    I agree with Jim. Knowing what is inside those AVI files, that are faulting, will likely tell the tale.
    This article goes into a lot more detail on AVI (and MOV, etc.) as a "wrapper:" http://forums.adobe.com/thread/440037?tstart=0
    It is what's inside, that matters. It might be as simple as just installing the proper CODEC, or it might be that the CODEC used, is a delivery-only CODEC, like DivX, Xvid, and some others.
    Good luck, and please let us know a bit more.

  • How can another target driver co-exist with sd driver?

    Hi,
    Is it possible if I have my own disk driver mysd co-exist with standard 'sd' driver.
    My driver mysd has to detect LUNs exported by myStorBox (our storage box)
    and manage them while sd driver handle all LUNs connected to the system except myStorBox?
    Both will be scsi class target drivers. How to configure mysd.conf or sd.conf or both
    to achive the selective handling of devices?
    My guess is that 'sd' driver will detect all scsi LUNs (based on the info
    given in sd.conf) including any LUNs exported by myStorBox. If mysd driver
    loads after sd driver (how to ensure this), it will be given a chance to probe all LUNs. mysd driver
    would look at the serial numbers and find out if they are from myStorBox.
    If they are from myStorBox, then it will claim these LUNs. At this point what
    happens to the device instances claimed by sd driver already for the LUNs
    from myStorBox?
    You help is really appreciated!
    SR

    The answer is "yes, but..."
    To make the long story short, don't compete with sd,
    use it.
    Stack over it and let it handle the regular disk
    stuff, do extra stuff in your driver.I tried to create a filter driver sitting on top of sd driver but was unable to
    get scsi sense data when an IO fails. Our storage box reports its
    internal path failover through SCSI Unit Attention which is consumed
    by sd driver. Hence thinking of the painful task of competing with
    sd driver. I would really appreciate how to co-exist with sd driver
    but for only the disks exported by our storage box ?
    Thanks in advance!

  • Can't open flash/fla files (with CS4) - might be version issue

    Hi,
    I am trying to edit a website for a friend (built with Flash and XML) and i can't seem to get into any of the .Fla files.
    I don't know if it is my version of Flash (CS4) or the files and not sure how i could test it. Could also just be a CS5 file hence i can't open it.
    Any help or suggestions would be great. Please help i don't know what to do, haha.
    Here is an upload of one of the files i am talking about
    http://www.2shared.com/file/kb2NKm0i/book-verification.html
    I wasn't sure which hosts were allowed so if i messed up please let me know.
    Thanks

    Hi Asher,
    You  cannot open a file which is saved in future version such as CS5  version  in Flash CS4 .This is as designed .
    If you need to open a CS5 file in CS4 , You need to save the file as CS4 file  and then open in Flash CS4 .

  • Can I use CS3 Design Standard with CS4 Web Standard?

    I have a somewhat confusing question/s.   I have CS3 Design Standard currently.  I need Dreamweaver and Flash and I'd like to do it the most cost effective way.  I'm perfectly happy with my CS3 versions of Photoshop & Illustrator and don't really want to pay for upgrading them unless I really have to.
    1.  If I purchase CS4 Web Standard, not upgrade, will that impact my ability to use my CS3 products.  (specifically, Photoshop & Illustrator)  Can you run both CS3 & CS4 concurrently?
    2.  If I upgrade from the CS3 Design Standard to CS4 Web Standard, will it delete my CS3 Photoshop & Illustrator or will it just add the CS4 applications and leave the CS3 products (that aren't included in the upgrade) alone?
    Thanks to anyone who can assist me.  I hope my questions make sense.  Any advice is appreciated!
    Rebecca
    In case it's important, I'm running OSX 10.5.8 on a MBP

    1. No and Yes. (but why would you buy the full version instead of the upgrade?)
    2. The CS4 installer doesn't touch the CS3 apps.

  • Can RH6 Demo copy  co-exist with RoboHelp 5X?

    Can I install the free trial copy of R6 without uninstalling
    5X? I don't want to do this if it will mess up my X5 installation.
    I'm currently testing on a different machine, but I also need to
    test on a machine that also has X5. I know to back up my documents
    from X5 first. I just want to know if I can install and run
    the trial version of RH6 without messing up my X5 installation.
    And, if I can do this, are there any installation and
    de-installation tricks I need to know for RH6 in this situation?
    Thanks!

    Whilst you can run the full versions on the same PC, I
    wouldn't go there with the trial of RH6. If you don't upgrade, you
    might have a whole bunch of problems.

  • Contribute 6.5 can not ftp after years of no issues with CS4 and CS5

    The problem
    Contribute 6.5 can not connect via ftp using settings that formerly worked (and still do) in CS4 and CS5.
    How we ended up here
    I am the administrator website where
    Our content editors have been using Contribute CS 4 and Contribute CS 5 without issue, 6+ years.
    We are trying to upgrade to CS 6.5 to better support HTML5 markup now used within the site.
    When attempting to configure a website connection in 6.5, Contribute alerts:
    "Contribute cannot find the website files on the server. Please contact the website's administrator for assistance."
    After closing the dialog box the failed connection is removed from contributes website connection list.
    We have a shared hosting account and utilize ftp to publish changes.
    Server is Win2008 with IIS 7.5
    Again it's shared hosting, so read/write ftp are scoped to our account's directory.
    We attempted this on serveral pcs including on a PC with a fresh install of Windows 7.
    We can still connect successfully via ftp with CS4, CS5, dreamweaver, and Filezilla.
    Which is why I believe this to be a Contribute 6.5 issue.
    I've attempted the following troubleshooting articles:
    Use network I/O logging to log operations, identify problems
    I compared the I/O logging for both CS5 and CS 6.5 which both appear to log the same diagnostic steps.
    Contribute FTP Server Checker (quite dated)
    All successes reported. No failures.
    Troubleshooting a Connection CS4 (linked from with CS 6.5's help UI)
    As indicated above, alternate FTP clients have no issue.
    This appears to be similar issue to the following posts:
    5301620 - HELP - FTP Connection Error with Contribute 6.5
    5907180 - Contribute 6.5 can no longer connect to sites ...
    Unfortunately, there has been no solutions posted on either of these threads.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    I can PM the network I/O log details if there is adobe staff who can get them in the right hands.
    (Again the logs only show successes.)

    @Zaldomoh
    Have you found a solution or been given assistance from Adobe to resolve this issue? I'm having the same problem (CS 6.5 ftp'ing to a shared hosting enviroment). Details of our situation can be found on thread 1384686

  • CAN REDHAT CLUSTER CO-EXIST WITH OCFS FOR APPLICATION CLUSTERING

    We have an existing, operational 10.2.0.3 RAC configuration running w/OCFS2 and ASM on Redhat AS 4. A shared filesystem was requested to be created on the two rac nodes and shared via Samba to a Windows server. OCFS2 does not supply a floating vip for automatic failover so the Linux techs are wanting to install RedHat Cluster to provide this functionality. Can the Redhat cluster co-exist with OCFS and what limitations/problems might we encounter? And is there another solution that we have not thought of??

    Has anyone in your organization read anything about RAC?
    ASM and OCFS have absolutely nothing to do with VIPS. VIPs are defined in /etc/host and in tnsnames.ora ... they are networking parameters not storage parameters.
    They want to install RedHat cluster? I'd see if I could get a court restraining order to keep their hands off the servers until they read the documentation. Good grief!
    If you can't find the RAC docs email me off-line. Reading your post was like reading about a train wreck that is going to happen in the near future.

    It is actually export plugin in CS, CS2 and CS3 while it is not working with CS4.
    It has an excellent Quality with low size, like Blue ray video. And with this tool, video size become very low.
    In our country some photographers use it with Edius and premier pro. I dont know how to use edius etc.
    But in CS3 it makes many problems.
    Thanx for your help. I have seen your foto many times in many forums.Always your solutions are very good.

  • Can I take a frame from my project and use it as a custom menu background with CS4 and its Encore

    My project is edited in CS4.
    I moved it to Encore CS4.
    I don't want to use any of the supplied menu templates in CS4 Encore.
    I was hoping CS4 would be all I needed to create custom menus using scenes from my project.
    My question is: Can I take a frame from my project and use it as a custom menu background with CS4 and its built in Encore or do I need some other element from the Adobe catalog to make these custom chapter menus and sub-menus?
    Thanks Jim

    OK, I'm back. Here are my steps for creating Custom Menus with PS, En and PrPro:
    In PrPro, move the CTI (Current Time Indicator) to the desired Frame. Check Frames on either side, with the Program Monitor’s Magnification to 100%, or maybe even 200% (you’ll need to scroll, but get a really clear picture). You want the clearest Frame in that area. With AME, in CS4, you’ll want to Export that Frame as .TIFF, or .BMP. I use .TIFF for this.
    Now, for a caveat. When you Import this Exported Frame into Photoshop, be sure to check the specs., especially the PAR. You may have to use Image>PAR to adjust this to match your Project’s specs. Or, all might be perfect - just check this out.
    Now, at this point, I choose the Library Menu, Blank, so that everything is setup. One can create the Menu from scratch, but careful attention needs to be paid to the exact naming conventions. At the very least, unless you’ve done this dozens of times before, use that Blank Menu, or similar as a guide, so you get things done, as they must be done.
    Using that Blank Menu, just drag the Layer from your Exported Frame to your Menu image. It will appear above the black Background.
    Add, or manipulate your Button Layer Sets, as is required, keeping them together. Remember that Button #1 will be the Button Layer Set, that is lower down in the Layers Palette. This can play a roll with Button Routing, back in Encore. Lower Button Layer Sets will have lower Button numbers.
    Now, I always rename my Button Layer Sets, keeping the required characters - just changing the name. I also do all of my Button text in PS, and make sure to turn OFF Sync Button Names.
    When done, Save_As .PSD, and then Import_As_Menu into Encore. Note: if you start with the Blank Menu, you can choose Edit in Photoshop, and then when done in PS, you just need to Save, and it will update in Encore. This is a personal workflow choice. I do the Edit in Photoshop route, but it is not necessary. One just needs to Import the resulting .PSD into Encore with Import_As_Menu, so that Encore does all the things that it needs to and recognizes the .PSD as a Menu.
    When deciding what to base your Menu on, remember that you can "populate" your Menu with Buttons from the Functional Content. I’d suggest studying these Assets, and picking the ones that work best for you. You can still alter/edit those back in PS, so you just need to "get close."
    Pay special attention to the required naming conventions. You cannot deviate from those first characters in the Button Layer Sets. They MUST be followed.
    If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
