Can I re-install CS6 if I change my mind

Before I ordered an upgrade from Master Collection CS6 to Creative Cloud, I want to know if I should or should not uninstall CS6 before I place order.
I want a clean and safe installation without problems.
If I subsequently terminates the contract CC, can I reinstall CS6 from my original DVD?

Hi Hjalmar Molin,
You need not to uninstall CS6 for CC installation. Once you purchase CC you may install the same following the article: Creative Cloud Help | Install, update, or uninstall apps.
You can always install and use CS 6 application that you purchased even if you cancel the CC subscription in future.

How many times can I re-install CS6?

How many times can I re-install CS6?

For ease of access and portability Adobe allows you to install the Adobe product on 2 computers of the same platform. However, you may not run the software simultaneously on both computers.
If you wish to install the software on third computer you need to de-activate the software from one of the 2 systems, and then install it on the new system.
Please follow the link to get the deactfivation and activation steps.

Hi edmon3611,
Not sure why its not initiating the install but you can try rebooting the computer in selective startup : http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/disable-startup-items-services-windows.html and check if any 3rd party software might be interrupting the install.

Can I set up I Cloud and change my mind without losing any data or photos?

I have the Iphone, Ipad2 , and Macbook Pro and want to set up ICloud. I read a post that said, should you decide to NOT use it, you will lose all of your data and photos. Is this true?

I set up an iCloud account and only use it for certain things. I do not use it on my Mac, even though I can, but I have chosen not to do so. I sync bookmarks, reminders, app data and documents (for Pages) but I did not setup an email account nor do I use Photo Stream. You can pick and choose what to want to sync to iCloud.

Uninstall CSxx before install CS6

I have installed Master Suite CS4, 5, 5.5. Can I uninstall them all before installing CS6? Or do I have to keep them?
I have a 64bit Vista and I will be updating to Win 7 in the next month. So I will have to re-install. During that re-install, same question, do I have to re-install CS4,5,5.5,and 6 or can I just install CS6. CS5,5.5 and, 6 are upgrades.
Thanks for a speedy reply:)

It's your decision you can have or remove them , CS6 installation doesn't require any previous version to be installed already , all it need is the serial number of the previous version that o if it is purchased as an upgrade.

I installed CS6 and can not package a document in InDesign that I was able to package before. Pop up widow "Cannot copy nessessary linked file(s)"

Yes I am using InDesign 8.0.1 does that mean I'm patched to it?
I got a new MacBook Pro and migrated the InDesign files from my old computer to my new one. Would the migration change file or folder names? I was able to package files on my old computer but I was using CS5.5.

Installing Photoshop CS6 and then changing computers

Can I install CS6 on one computer and then later on (if I want to change computers) re-install it on another computer? If so, how do I port the license over to the new computer? Also, if I understand correctly, I can only have it installed on one computer at a time?
Thanks.

"2.1.3 Portable or Home Computer Use. Subject to the important restrictions set forth in Section 2.1.4 [having to do with volume licensees], the primary user of the Computer on which the Software is installed … may install a second copy of the Software for his or her exclusive use on either a portable Computer or a Computer located at his or her home, provided that the Software on the portable or home Computer is not used at the same time as the Software on the primary Computer."
If you already have two activated copies of Ps and wish to transfer to another computer, first deactivate Ps on an old computer then activate it on the new computer.

Just installed CS6 but can't associate file type JPG with Photoshop.

I've just now installed Photoshop CS6 and Lightroom 4. File types PSD and TIFF work fine, but I'm completely unable to associate JPG, JPEG or any other variant with the Photoshop program such that I can double-click on the photo file and open Photoshop and the photo. I can associate JPG with either Bridge or Lightroom, or several other programs, but when I browse to Photoshop and select Photoshop.exe nothing happens, not even an error message. Does anyone have a clue what's going on here?
Operating system is Windows 7 Ultimate Edition, 32-bit. There is 4GB of memory in the machine, which is a Dell Vostro 1720 laptop.
Thanks,
Bill Sexauer

I know there is a problem with the file associations and that I need to fix them. What I don't know is how to do it. I successfully fixed the associations for file types PSD and TIFF, but I'm completely unable to do the same for type JPG. I did use Open With and that's where it just refused to allow me to change to Photoshop. It would allow me to change from the default Windows Photo Viewer to Bridge or to Lightroom, but not to Photoshop.
The problem was probably caused by my having installed CS6 prior to uninstalling CS4. Should I just reinstall CS6 right over the top of the existing CS6?

I installed cs6. now can i deinstall cs5?

I installed CS6 (not trial version). Can I deinstall CS5? I'm afraid I will lose my credentials, or also might remove some shared files. What about Camera Raw? I'm afraid ACR might be deinstalled. Speaking of ACR, I see no way of determining which version of ACR is running. When I'm in Bridge CS6 and open ACR, how do i know it's the new version?

I deinstalled CS5 and only had one slight problem. PSD files then default on opening to QuickTime viewer. A dialogue may come up when you attempt to open a PSD file from Bridge after the deinstall of CS5 that some default has changed for QuickTime and do you want to restore default or something like that. No other info, so I responded yes and perhaps should have said no. The PSD files then open in QuickTime! Easy to fix. Go into Windows Explorer, right-mouse on a PSD file and set default to PS6.
Also, I deinstall programs through a wonderful deinstall program as Windows deinstall is very bad about leaving garbage behind. This deinstaller always first checks if the application to be deinstalled has it's own deinstaller and if it does, uses it, so it used the Adobe deinstaller. When done with a deinstall, it offers to clean up the mess often left by deinstallersregistry, and files and shortcuts and other garbage. In the case of CS5 it thankfully gave me a warning that CS5 and CS6 were installed in the same directory and to be careful of cleaning up any further. This deinstaller then shows all the items left behind and there was a TON of itemscomplicated names--far too much stuff. I thought it best to leave them alone. PS6 and Bridge work fine after the deinstall and leaving all those other things alone, but my whole point is that I have 30+ years of IT experience and think Adobe is playing a very dangerous game by installing new versions of their software in the same folder as the older version. It's not the right thing to do from an architectural perspective, nor a safe thing to do, and could cause customers real headaches Let this warning go out to anyone deinstalling previous version. By the way, I use Revo uninstaller, which, by the way, also creates a restore point BEFORE doing any deinstall so a customer could completely in-do a deinstall if problems.

Can I install CS6 to 3 of my computers with the same registration

I am going to install CS6 using the same registration number to my laptop and another spare computer. How do I know if my CS6 can be used for multiple computers.
Thanks

No.
The license is for one user and two (2) computers that are not used at the same time.
If you try three installations, the third one will NOT activate and become inoperative.

How can I install CS6 on a second computer?

I need to install CS6 Basic, not extended, on a new computer. I found several different suggestions. So here's what I've done:
1 I downloaded a trial so I could register it with my CS6 basic version S/N. The trial version it downloaded was Extended, which I don't own.
2 I installed it anyway. When I tried to use my Basic S/N, it wouldn't take it. Big surprise.
3 I uninstalled the Extended trial version.
4 I copied the two installation files in my Basic subdirectory on the old computer. Then I copied them to the new computer.
5 I did the installation with the serial number, and it loaded as Extended.
6 I've searched Adobe for a downloadable version of Basic I can install, but it's nowhere to be found. All references are to Extended.
7 My old computer is an XT. The new one is Win 7 64 bit. Is that why I can't find any reference to the Basic version for my Win 7 machine?

There is only one download for Mac and one for Windows. They are Extended in trial mode and the serial number which you enter will determine whether the extended features remain enabled (Extended mode) or not (Standard mode).

Please be more specific. Exactly what happened when you entered a serial number? For example, if a message regarding the number appeared, what did it say?

We uninstall photoshop cs6 on PC (creative suite design standard). How can we re-install it with our serial number ?

After a problem with photoshop cs6 (CTRL+T stopped the application with an error message and closed the window), we uninstall it.
We can't download photoshop cs6 on the adobe site to re-install it.
At the moment I am working on photoshop cc evaluation for 1 month.
What can we do to re-install cs6 with our serial number ?
Thanks.

If you did not deactivate the software before uninstalling then you should remember to do that in the future should you decide to uninstall again. If you contact Adobe support thru chat they can help with deactivating the original installation.
For the link below click the Still Need Help? option in the blue area at the bottom and choose the chat option...
