If I uninstall and reinstall PP pro CS5, will I need to reactivate it?

PP pro cs5 is having a problem, Ive tried everything to cure it (see my post on here) but now need to uninstall and reinstall in the hope of a cure - If I do so, do I need to reactivate it? Its not a problem if I do, but I'm not connected to the net where there workstation is and will mean moving to the net access point which is a bit of a pain as this is one big PC!
Many thanks

REinstalling does not affect existing activations, but sßpecific circumstances may still trigger a validation check and require an online connection. You won't know until you try.

How to uninstall and reinstall Adobe InDesign CS5?

My Adobe InDesign CS5 stopped opening properly. Upon startup all the menu items were grayed out and unaccessible. Adobe Chat support advised me to uninstall and reinstall CS5.
My other Adobe programs are working fine. (CS5 photoshop, illustrator, acrobat, etc.)
MacBook Pro OS10.9.3
Anyone know how to uninstall and reinstall CS5?
Unfortunately Adobe chat service no longer supports this function on this older software.
Thanks for your help.

before you go to the trouble of uninstalling/reinstalling--try this (it's called resetting the preferences)
OOPs--I forgot that I was in the indesign forum
There is a quick and easy method for doing this using the keyboard: close and relaunch InDesign, and IMMEDIATELY hold down Ctrl + Alt + Shift (Windows) or Cmd + Ctrl + Opt + Shift (Mac), and respond in the affirmative to the dialog asking if you really want to replace the preferences. There are two downsides to this method, however. First, you must be extremely fast on the keyboard (if you don’t see the confirmation prompt, you were too slow), and second, anytime you replace the preferences you will lose most program customizations, and using the keyboard method leaves you with no backup to restore them when the problem turns out to be something else.
My preferred method is to CLOSE INDESIGN and do a “manual” prefs replacement, which consists of finding and renaming the two files which make up the preference set: InDesign Defaults and InDesign SavedData. BOTH of these files should be replaced at the same time. You can delete them, but renaming or moving them will give you the opportunity to copy them back in the event that new prefs doesn’t cure your issue. When you restart ID, the program will look for these two files, and when they are not found, a new default set will be written.

Hi I up loaded to Mac Yosemite and my ccs5 quit. Can uninstall and reinstall the program or will it simply not work withyosemite. Thanks Bob

Will cs5 work on Mac Yosemite?

Upgrading Yosemite breaks the CS5 install, so you need to uninstall/reinstall CS5 to fix it.
Update Yosemite to 10.10.1 Then reinstall.
The install sets CS5 back to 12.0.0, so don't forget to run updates.
It should work after that.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, but it will not start up upon clicking

Firefox will not start up. I have uninstalled, reinstalled, done a system restore, and nothing works. I can use Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and it works fine, but all of my saved information on Firefox is not available.

Many thanks.
That suggests that another application has stashed old QuickTime componentry in your system files.
So just in case we'll go looking for older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
First we'll need to change some view settings.
In your Start menu, open Computer.
In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
Click OK.
Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
Open the "Windows" folder.
If you have a 32-bit version of Windows, open the "System32" folder.
If you have a 64-bit version of Windows, open the "SysWOW64" folder.
What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

Priemere Pro consistantly crashed upon export, I cleaned media cache and that seemed to help. Now export errors unknown problem... read to uninstall and reinstall and now I can not open up PPCS5

Here is my problems with Premiere Pro CS5
When I export a project... the computer crashes.
I was able to get a tech chat and they would clean the media cache
so I did that.
Then, I got an export error "unknown problem" I then read in a forum to uninstall and reinstall Premiere pro
Now on my very nice relatively newer IMAC, when I go to applications to open it... I can not find a purple tab to open it. It just has a presets folder, then open that and it has styles, templates, textures but, now little purple Pr to open or drag to my dashboard.
Help PLEASE!!! I have wasted 20 hours of editing time, and work because of crashes, and problems.

I just downloaded and installed the new iTunes on a Toshiba Satelite of some age. It was just completely reformated and updated with XP. iTunes will not open. The terms page comes up and when I agree it disappears. I have uninstalled and reinstalled.

CS5.5 and OSX 10.9.4: Most applications will not launch even after uninstalling and reinstalling the Creative Suite 5.5. After my 2011 MacBook Pro 17 died, I had to purchase a new MacBook Pro 15 to replace it. I performed a Time Machine installation from that 2011 machine, and only Distiller and Acrobat would launch (none of the rest of the creation apps). So I ran the CS5.5 installer, uninstalled, then reinstalled, producing the same result. When I try to launch, nothing happens. What next?

I have no problems with InDesign. It may pay to ask Adobe if it is a common problem with Lion of if they have a solution

Can't open any applications in CS5 once one has closed without uninstalling and reinstalling

I have had CS5 Design Premium installed on my iMac for a little over a year. I got the graphics card replaced roughly two weeks ago and since then have had problems with CS5. None of the CS5 programs would open when I got the graphics card fixed so I uninstalled and reinstalled the entire suite from the disc. All the programs worked fine until I closed one down. Once I close a program and try to open another or reopen the same one I get the agreement page up. I click accept and it just keeps putting the agreement up again to accept. I have to uninstall and reinstall the entire suite again from disc in order to use any of the programs! Can someone please help? This is driving me crazy!!!

Hello,
Well, your Mac's situation sounds pretty vague. So, I'd recommend a little general troubleshooting, starting with verifying and possibly repairing your "Home" hard-disk volume.
This will explain how it's done http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Follow the six-part process under "Try Disk Utility."

Acrobat X Pro hangs when making PDF. Using on Windows 7 64. Just started hanging. Uninstalled and reinstalled. Installed update. Once it hangs, must go into crtl, alt, delete to force close.

As a debugging step, try printing to the Adobe PDF printer. If that fails, repeat with print-to-file selected. Assuming the print succeeds, open the file in Distiller to complete the creation of the PDF. If you get the PDF, then check to see if AcroTray is properly working as a background task.

Frequently asked to uninstall and reinstall Acrobat 9 Pro

This is becoming an aggravating issue with me. I don't mind uninstalling and reinstalling, but to go through all the updates is time consuming. I have yet to find anything from Adobe that addresses this. Perhaps I missed something/ Thank you in advance for any help.

Thank you for the quick response, Bill@VT.
I open Acrobat 9 Pro and an error screen appears on top of the gray portion of Acrobat workspace that says to the effect that " the program will no longer start. You must uninstall and reinstall the program". I did not capture the error message, but it had no number." What I was doing right before that was trying to load a .pdf to Acrobat.
I am running Win XP Pro sp3. This has been an on-going problem for the past year, maybe a little more. It has happened several times since January of this year. It does not correspond with any new programs I have installed, unless some auto update from HP or Windows Update is triggering it. Basically, nothing has changed on this system since I first installed the program in 2008, other than hard drive upgrades and program updates. None of which have taken place within a month or two of when the program fails to start.
When it happens again, I will be sure to capture the screenshot of the error message. It takes a couple of hours to reinstall all the updates to get to the final 9.5.
It is difficult to recall exactly what I was doing before this happens in past incidents. Today, an hour or two before, I had downloaded a .pdf of a meeting agenda from a trusted site (a city government website...if that can be considered "trusted"!!). I hadn't opened any strange emails, but had just used Elements 11 to edit some photos that I saved to a file. I use AVG anti-virus and also scan with Malwarebytes once a week or so. There doesn't seem to be a pattern to this error.
As for the Acrobat 9 Pro updates, long ago I bookmarked the link you shared. I download them fresh from the site even though I have copies in a folder.
For the record, I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 installed along with an older version of it, both work flawlessly.

I have an old version of InDesign CS5, have not used in a while..about a year. It will not load nor allow me to uninstall and reinstall, please help. I have original discs and serial number. How can I fix this?

What do i need to uninstall and reinstall photoshop cs5 extended windows 7 32-bit?

what do i need to uninstall and reinstall photoshop cs5 extended windows 7 32-bit?

Photoshop CS5 Extended suddenly stopped recognizing my NVIDIA 3D card (NVIDIA Quadro FX 1800M). No 3D graphics will work in Photoshop. An Adobe online tech worked with me on it for about an hour. We concluded that I would go try to update the NVIDIA driver. The NVIDIA website is frustrating. The boxes to input my card model and system do not work.
Nawang uninstalled and reinstalled Photoshop (my question below was about how to do that, but he did it for me and that did not help.)
My card is 3D capable. I used Repousse 3D effect two days ago and it worked fine. Now it is not working, all 3D controls are grayed out.
