Can't uninstall photoshop and all adobe programs

Hi,
my laptop has been recently formated and the office has been changed to 2007 (i don't know if it's important)
i thought that all the programs has been deleted and as i tried to install photoshop i found out that the old CS3 is still there with all my adobe programs but i can't open them and i can't delete them at the add/remove programs as they do not appear there.
so now i'm stuck - i can't uninstall the old photoshop and the rest of adobe programs i have and i can't re-install them.
does anyone has any idea what to do?
i can see their folders but that's it.
if i try to open photoshop for example i get "U can not use this product at this time. You must repair this problem by uninstalling and then reinstalling this product or contact your IT administrator or adobe customer..."

Emily,
Your image is still in queue. Next time, use the little "camera" icon.
Next, do a search of this forum for "installation," and limit that search by People. Choose "the_wine_snob." Now, read ALL of the replies in those, and not just mine. There are many great tips by most of the others. I just happened to comment on some of those threads, especially the recent ones, so you should get a lot of great info in each. I'm just limiting by my posts, as I know that the others have made very good recs. in each.
Good luck,
Hunt

How many computers can I install Photoshop (and other adobe programs on)?

Hi. I was wondering how many computers I can install a purchased version of Photoshop onto (or other Adobe products)? Can I install one copy onto two systems I own, eg: my desktop and laptop? Or only one total? Can I buy additional licenses for that version if needed? What about with older products Eg: Photoshop 4 Extended, or another?
Thank you.

I'll reply to my own post witht his for anyone else who wants it. i jsut chedked out Photoshop 5's system requirem
ents and just found out yes there are two licenses or more - if you pay.

Anyone want to add anything: Please do.
I would like to say that being able to add software onto 2 systems, especially software for productivity and fun, is highly important. This is something Adobe needs to keep doing and a lot of other companies too. Plus it is something some companies need to look into if they can set up the system right. This is one reason I am planning on buying one companies software for music production over the other (which also requires the usb key/lock or company #2's product doesn't work). It is a good selling point for someone like me with a desktop and laptop, cost is a factor with double programs.

Can't run Pshop and another adobe program at the same time

Hi all,
I'm experiencing a frustration problem. I can't run two adobe programs a the same time - ie, Lightroom and photoshop, After effects and photoshop.
Lightrrom and After effects sem to be playing together okay at the moment so looks like it may be a PShop issue.
Running final release of windows 7 64 bit, licenced PS3, trial AE, trial PS4....8GB Ram, has been with both Nvidia and ATI video cards, open GL on , Open GL off, seperate scratch disks, reinstalled everything,
Any help, advice, hints would be really appreciated as having to close programs all the time when switching apps is a real pain in the neck
cheers
Jeff

thanks whytefly,
yeah I thought that may be the case but then realised both After effects and CS3 are 32bit (86x) and I can't run those together
I'm jealous as hell that you can run 3 together haha,
cheers

I have accidentally deleted off my Mac a preferences file for Adobe photoshop and now the program cannot initialize. I have talked to Apple and then say that if Adobe can isolate the file they can help me restore it from my time machine. How do I isolate the file ?

Do you have the path to this file and name of this file?

How can I uninstall yosemite and reinstall Loin with out losing all my in formation and programs

How can I uninstall Yosemite and reinstall Loin with out losing all my in formation and programsThis had been the worst os system apple has come out, too many errors
too many to list.
a few
Losing all mail. and watching them disappear in front of my eyes and could nothing about it
also when accessing cloud the screen just rolls in when accessing mail, like loading and loading and loading for 1 to 2 minuets.
I did not up grade my Mac Book Pro, and is working fine,
Just my iMac, its act kile avid card and it only happens access iCloud mail.
so I want to and need to go back to Loin

You can't unless you have a current backup of your old Lion system because the first thing you must do is erase the drive. It 's possible to use Target Disk Mode between your iMac and the MBP in order to clone the MBP to the iMac. However, that will still erase everything on the iMac's drive.
Or you could see about getting Yosemite to work correctly. If you have IMAP mail, then your mail should be intact.
Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
4. Reinstall Yosemite: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Download and install the 10.10.1 update.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
            because it is three times faster than wireless.
5. Reinstall Yosemite from Scratch:
Download and install the 10.10.1 update.
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
How to Clean Install OS X Yosemite
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible

Doublechecking. Have you tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:

No. If it didn't install, then there must be a reason. Install logs tell a lot and more system info is required, also.
