Can I have CS5 AND CS6???

Hello everyone.  I noticed when upgrading to LR4, that LR3 is still functional.  If I get CS6, will it "absorb" CS5 or will it still be a seperately accesible program as well?
Thanks

Almost all versions of Adobe software install into their own folders so you can run previous versions of the software at any time.
In the case of Photoshop and the other flagship titles, you could have several versions, stretching back 10+ years, installed and ready to launch if your operating system supports them
The latest versions don't install over the top of previous versions.
This is essential for things like some plugins which may not be compatible with the very latest Adobe version but do work with a previous version.

    Just save the document to a new jpeg file name using a lower quality setting or re-size the image down in  size the save a high quality smaller new jpeg image.

  • We have CS5 and CS6 and we want to swap the PCs the PCs over that they are installed on.

    How do we do that. We do not have the CS5 media only the serial number.

    If all you want to do is install CS6, then having the CS5 serial is sufficient. It wil lbe requested for verification of upgrade installs...

  • Problem : Have Master Suite CS5 and CS6 on same PC... CS5 defaulting to CS6

    I have a number of Premiere CS5 projects on my PC... I've installed a trial of Master Suite CS6 and all my CS5 projects are opening in CS6.. which I don't want.
    Any suggestions on how I can have them open in CS5 again? I'd prefer to have the Premiere, After Effects and Photoshop files all open in CS5 if that is what I created them in. I've been told I can both CS5 and CS6 on the same machine without problems.  Thanks for any input.

    Windows file assocations are set according to the last program installed

    You can install and activate CS6 on both machines perfectly legally.

    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand, such as your platform (Mac or Win), exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop ("CS5" won't do for instance; we would need CS5 vers 12.0.2 or whatever) and of Bridge, machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, video card specs, what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far, what error message(s) you receive, if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc., someone may be able to help you.
    A screen shot could be very helpful too.

  • Can I have my registered CS6 software installed on both a windows and mac simultaneously?

    How many computers can I have my registered CS6 software simultaneously installed on? If it is just one computer and I wish to install it on another one, I assume I need to uninstall on the original first and simply repeat the installation process?
    One more question: Since the software came with two installation discs, (windows and mac), does that mean I can simultaneously use the software on a windows computer and mac computer?
    Thank you.

    Not sure what you are saying. You can install and activate on 2 systems, but generally standalone installs have platform-specific serials and can only be installed eitehr on Windows or Mac, not both. However, your description seems to indicate a TLP volume license, so that would be possible.

    I stand corrected, apparently the first year discount for previous CS customers is still in place.

  • Adobe Bridge CS5 and CS6 need to uninstall

    I have Adobe Bridge CS5 and CS6 that I need to uninstall off my mac I do not have Adobe Uninstall in the Utilities folder. Question how do I uninstall the applications

    Question how do I uninstall the applications
    CS6 uninstall is in the folder of Photoshop itself in the applications folder, I suspect CS5 also has this but can't check myself.

  • Open Photoshop CS5 and CS6

    I can't open Photoshop CS5 and CS6 versions simultaneously. When I launch CS6, and then CS5, it takes me to CS6, and vice versa.
    Is it possible to keep open the two versions? With Indesign I can do it.

    As far as I know that is normal behavior:  only one instance of Photoshop at a time.   Forum members have reported running two versions of Photoshop simultaneously using virtual machines on their computer (which emulate separate computers).

  • Warning CS4 CS5 and CS6 Photoshop Action Users

    Adobe introduce the Adjustment Panel in CS4 and included two option that you should NEVER CHANGE from their default setting.  For if either or both are change from their default settings some actions that add adjustment layers will fail to work properly. They may or may not produce error pop-ups.
    I have been trying to get this fixed for a couple of years now.  The other day I received an e-mail from an Adobe programmer informing me that he had been assigned the task to fix the problems I've been having.  He included information he was considering.  It was clear he did not fully understand the problems and that keeping one of the options would make it impossible to maintain compatibility with previous versions of Photoshop.  I wrote two e-mails explaining the problems and a third detailing what the problems I saw with what was proposing.  He wrote back the all he wanted to do was to work on part of the problem not the whole problem. I wrote a fourth note but Adobe is back is stealth mode.
    The two options in the Adjustment Panel fly-out menu are:
    "Add Layer Mask by Default" checked by default.  This is how Photoshop always worked prior to CS4 there was never an option not to add one so nothing was ever recorded whether or not a layer mask was to be added they always were.  Changing this will make Photoshop not backward compatible.
    "Clip to Layer" not checked by default.  There has always been an option to clip adjustment layers to the previous layer. So when the option is used the action recorder records the option "With Clipping Mask" in the make adjustment layer step.  When the Adjustment Layer is not clipped the option "with Clipping Mask" is not recorded. In the past these recordings played back correctly and still do if the Adjustment Panel fly-out option "Clip to Layer" is not checked.  However if Adjustment Panel option is checked even though is was nit when the action was recorded for the option "With Clipping Mas" is not recorded Photoshop clips the layer because of the Adjustment Panel current Option setting. That could be fixed. The current option setting has no meaning in this context in fact the Adjustment panel may not have even been used to recode the Make Adjustment Layer step.
    Here is a link to a simple action recorded in CS6. It opens a new default size document add an Levels Adjustment Layer deletes the layer mask and then clips the adjustment layer to the previous layer.  The Action will play correctly in all versions of Photoshop prior to cs4.  It will fail in CS4, CS5 and CS6 if either or both of the Adjustments Panel fly-out options are changed from their default setting.  http://www.mouseprints.net/old/dpr/CS6AdjLayer.atn

    Generally, you would have got the option to remove the old versions.  However, you can uninstall the old versions but you should do it from Windows Add/Remove modules in the Control Panel so that it doesn't remove the common files from your machine.
    If you are not constrained by disk space then the best thing is to leave the old programs on the system until you are familiar with the new features of the upgraded program.
    I have renmoved the old programs from my Windows 7 because I wasn't using them.  These days I use "Corel Paintshop Pro X5" and "Corel Draw Graphics Suite X6".
    Photoshop is for something I need to test for my colleagues who are not familiar with certain features in Corel so I tell them how to do it in PS CS6.
    Hope this helps.

    As far as I know Photoshop can not open Zip files.  If you unzip the zip archive and it contained PSD files.  How do you know they were all saved on a XP system with Photoshop CS5 with max compatibility.  The message you getting seem to be contradicting that.

  • When I downloaded CC, I uninstalled CS5 and CS6, now I cannot open my older psd

    When I downloaded CC, I uninstalled CS5 and CS6, now I cannot open my older psd photos, has anyone else had this problem...

    Your info is at best vague. PSD files are compatible across versions on a very broad level, so whatever problem you have may be very specific. You have not provided any relevant technical info about your system or your files, so nobody can say anything specific, though.

  • InDesign CS5 and CS6 Scripting Changes/Incompatibilities

    I'm new to InDesign scripting and need to write a very complex Javascript for InDesign using the Toolkit. My concerns are if CS5/5.5 users will be able to run the script written for CS6. Are there known incompatibilities with the different releases? If so, where can I find a document to compare the differences. I will probably need to support both CS5 and CS6 (and anything in between), so a possibly solution may be to build for CS5, but if I do, will I be missing out on any key new features of CS6?

    There are differences from 1 DOM version to another and they can and will break your script if you haven't designed it to handle them. For example:
    If you want to use script labels like me (because they are awesome) the following will break if you use CS5 or later:
    app.activeDocument.pageItems.item("myLabel").remove();
    So you'd have to force the DOM to V6.0. But when doing so remember to revert back to the original version after you're done or you'll create bigger problems. This can be done like this:
    app.scriptPreferences.version = 6.0; // CS4's DOM version
    app.activeDocument.pageItems.item("myLabel").remove();
    app.scriptPreferences.version = 10.2; // Current CC DOM version
    This is very inconvenient (for me at least), so I wrap functions that require DOM changes with a custom version changer to handle this for me. In regards to a list of incompatibilities? Not sure, maybe someone here has one, I know Jongware has a website with all the DOM changes from 1 version to another. This can be found here:
    Indesign JavaScript Help
    Hope this helps.
