CS4 Trial Version: How to Uninstall from PC?

Hi!
I downloaded the CS4 Trial Version. Now I would like to uninstall it from my PC. I still have 23 remaining days, but would like to clear space on my hard drive asap. What will happen when the Trial expires? Will it self-delete, or what??
Would you please tell me how this can best be done? I don't want any files from this download remaining on my hard drive.
TIA,
Clyde Semler

Here's the thing.  The uninstallers were part of the package that Adobe made you down and decompress (along with the installer package).  From the sounds of it you do not have it.
The following is the CS4 Clean Script:
http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs4clean.html
This is usually only recommend in cases where where betas and pre-release software were removed from a system and you run into problems installing the legit software.  As a result, this will disable all CS4 software, serial numbers and Adobe Acrobat/Reader installations.  It's a commonly used script but it will wipe the system files/registry and all program/user library folders and takes longer to run than the typically uninstaller.
That's your only other option if there is no add/remove programs for whatever reason and you did not hold onto the separate uninstaller packages.

  • Running Fireworks CS4 Trial Version after Using CS4 beta

    I tried out the Fireworks CS4 beta some months ago, but after
    getting tired of all the bugs, I uninstalled it and decided to wait
    for the released Trial Version. I downloaded that today and
    installed it, but when I try to run it I get a message that says
    "The license for this product has expired." and then it quits,
    never fully loading. I'm guessing this has something to do with the
    CS4 beta I had previously installed and uninstalled. Perhaps I
    didn't uninstall it properly, but now I need to know how to move
    forward so I can give the release version of Fireworks CS4 and
    proper evaluation.
    Any ideas on how I can get the CS4 Trial Version
    running?

    Uninstall the trial.
    Then dl/run the clean up script here
    http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs4clean.html
    Install trial again.

  • Can't extract the Photoshop CS4 trial version archive

    Hello,
    i downloaded the Photoshop CS4 trial version with the help of the Akamai download manager and now i have some trouble to extract the archive. I tried it with the Adobe extractor, with 7-Zip and Win-Rar, but i always get the message that some files (about ~500 files) are corrupted.
    I downloaded the trial version (archive size 857MB) about 4 or 5 times from the Adobe website, but i always have the same problem. I can't extract the archive properly. Does somebody have a solution for my problem? Thanks in advance!

    The size I'm seeing for the English/Windows version of the PS CS4 Ext Tryout .7z is:  853,860,607 / 814.3MB which took 20-25 min to download on a 500-1000KB/sec connection at work.
    Using Test in WinRAR 3.80 trial says everything is ok.
    Some questions that suggest things to try:
    Are you on a wired internet connection all the way to your computer?
    Are you extracting from your local C: drive?
    Are you deleting what is downloaded each time before retrying?
    Have you turned off your virus scanner before downloading and/or when trying to extract the files?

  • I need to uninstall my old version on itunes and install a new version, i cant uninstall from Programs and Features, a message keeps coming up saying 'The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.' Can anyone help please

    I have tried to just install the new version of itunes from the apple website, it looks like it downloads but after 5 minutes at the end of the install it says 'old version of itunes cannot be uninstalled, please contact support.'?  
    Is there anyway I can remove the version of itunes from my computer? i dont mind if i lose the music/content I already have on my itunes. I need to do this as i have just received the iphone 4 and need to install the newest version of itunes.
    Many thanks

    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
    (If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

  • Problem Downloading Trial Version of Lightroom 4 from Adobe Site

    Problem dow
    I am having problem downolading a trial version of Lightroom 4 from the Adobe site. It appears that I can download trial versions of any other digital photography-related product but not of Lightroom 4. About 2 weeks ago I downloaded the trial version of Adobe Elements and I have been getting familiar with it. I have to make a decision on the best product for my needs.
    I went to Vistek shop in Ottawa yesterday and one of the specialist told me that maybe Lightroom would better meet my needs. Prior to purchasing, I am trying to test both product to understand the fundamental differences. For some reason, when I go to the download site ( https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop_lightroom) and click on the download button, nothing happens. Given that I am a System's Engineer by trade, I thought that perhaps I cannot install 2 trial copies of adobe products on a single workstation so I tried downloading Lightroom 4 from 3 different PC/laptops but got the same results...
    Can anybody help. This is a bit frustrating given that the Adobe element trial is coming to an end (about 2 weeks) and I want to proceed with purchasing the RIGHT PRODUCT...
    CanSB

    The link, just above, is the latest update to LR 4.2 which may work fine.
    About the original trial download page you had issues with, it does take a few seconds for the download button to become active, and once you click it, it takes a few more seconds for either a login pop to come up or the download, itself, to start, so maybe you have a popup blocker enabled or some security that doesn’t allow the download to occur.  You might try a different browser.  The following link is what the download attempts to use, but you need to have signed in to your Adobe account before trying to use it, I think:

  • Uninstalled Premier Elements 10, want to reinstall. Can I just download trial version and enter SR from uninstalled version?

    Elements Premier became corrupted and freezing computer. As I understood the directions, I uninstalled, including options on uninstall wizard. I now want to download and reinstall using my paid for and registered Serial Numbers. Is this correct. If not, please advise proper reinstall.

    Fr. Six
    Yes with following explanation.
    Adobe offers only the trial version of Premiere Elements (current version = Premiere Elements 12/12.1).
    But, you can download the appropriate trial of Premiere Elements 10 from the following web site
    http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-10-direct-download-links-pse-premiere-pre.htm l
    and insert your version 10 purchased serial number in the appropriate installation files.
    Be sure to read and carry out the Note: Very Important Instructions at that web site so that you do not run
    into an Access Denied message.
    Keep in mind that if you purchased the serial number online from Adobe, it will be specific to a Windows OR Mac computer.
    A version 10 serial number purchased for a download to a Windows computer is not going to work for Premiere Elements 10 on a Mac
    computer.
    Please let us know if you are OK with the above information.
    Thanks.

  • Unistall trial version of DW CS3 from Mac?

    What's the procedure for uninstalling the trial versions of

    Can I take it it's safe for me just to drag the folder

    I think you need to use the install program, it will offer an
    uninstall
    option. You might want to use the cleaner tool as well, but
    not!

  • Epson P.I.M. II Plug-in v2.2 install error with CS4 trial version

    Hello,
    I am using a trial version of CS4 that I just downloaded & installed (works fine).  I tried installing Epson's ICC color profile for the 1280 printer with the P.I.M. II Plug-in v2.2 installer from the Epson website (http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/support/supDetail.jsp?BV_UseBVCookie=yes&oid=14387&prod oid=28907797&infoType=Downloads&platform=All).  It doesn't install and gives the following error:
    "Adobe Photoshop 6.0/7.0/CS or Photoshop Elements 1.0/2.0/3.0 was not found on your computer. The plugin was not installed."
    Has anyone else encountered this?  Epson tech support was no help ("...Call Adobe").
    Q: Does this error happen with the full CS4 version (not just the trial?)
    Q: Perhaps CS4 includes the Epson ICC's with no separate installation of Epson software?  If I select print from CS4, there is a Epson Stylus Photo 1280 available in the Printer Profile drop down. I wonder if I am missing anything by not being able to install the PIM ICC profile.
    ?? Anyone have any thoughts??
    Thanks,
    Katherine

    You're trying to install a very out of date and unnecessary plugin.
    The Epson ICC profiles come with the printer driver - they have nothing to do with the obsolete PIM plugin.

  • Photoshop CS4 Trial Version?

    Hello everyone, for the past hour or so I've been trying to install Photoshop CS4 (trial). Now, I've gone through the installation successfully, but when it was done it said I would need to restart and reinstall to add the missing components. It came back up as this  and if I check Adobe Photoshop CS4, everything gets selected. Now, I've already installed this, and have no more room to install it again. But even with nothing checked, it still says the total size is 6.9 MB. So I tried with nothing selected, and it went successfully, but when I went to open Photoshop, it said I needed to reinstall and add missing components. I've tried restarting, and I've tried reinstalling (the same as above).
    Exactly what comes up when I try to open Photoshop is: "Some of the application components are missing from the Application directory, Please reinstall the application."
    Can someone please help me? Thanks in advance!

  • Installing Indesign CS4 Trial Version

    I am trying to download the trial version of Indesign CS4, when I get it downloaded and try to launch it says opening adbeidsncs4_LS1.dmg it goes through but when it is complete a screen pops up that says 'the following disk images failed to mount--abdesidsncs4_LS1.dm invalid checksum. But if I don't let it complete the screen that says opening abdeidsncs4_LS1.dmg if I open Indesign it will work but there is no tool bar. I have tried to uninstall it and re-install it but it is still doing the same thing.

    Two possibilities come to mind.
    First, the download was damaged and you should try downloading the trial again.
    Second, you are installing a non-US English localized version. There are known issue with these versions. See http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/408/kb408055.html

  • Installing full LR3 after Trial Version; need to uninstall first?

    I'm currently running LR3 Trial version on my Mac but I decided to buy the full version.  Do I need to uninstall the trial version before installing the full version?
    Thanks.

    All you need to do is enter the serial number into the trial version.  In fact if you purchased a boxed set with a CD, do not bother to load LR3 from the CD as it will most likely not be the most current version (3.7)

  • Trial version of AcrobatXI uninstalled, Creative Cloud thinks it installed?

    How can I install Acrobat XI when Creative Cloud says it is up to date and already installed?
    I uninstalled it prior to purchasing and installing Creative Cloud on the recommendation of customer service.
    CC will not let me install Acrobat now?

    That is interesting.  After a couple of tries deactivating and uninstalling then reinstalling Creative Cloud with no success, I tried the following:
    I uninstalled Creative Cloud and any Adobe remnants.  I logged out of my account, shut down the computer and restarted logging on to the Adobe website.  I tried to download the trial of Acrobat XI, it wouldn't let me install in the applications folder but would let me install it on my main computer folder.  I installed it, the app showed up in the Applications folder I then logged into my Adobe account and  installed Creative Cloud.  It all worked.  That was the only way I could get the Acrobat XI application on the computer.
    Adobe XI shows installed and up to date and it allowed me to install Light Box and other Adobe apps as well.  Adobe XI when opened makes no reference to a "trial version".  It works like it is supposed to and I'm hoping it continues.  5 days and all is well so far.

  • Bridge cache management still weak in CS4 (trial version)

    I've been running the trial version of Photoshop 11 (CS4) and Bridge 3.0.0.464 for a little over 24 hours.
    Though Bridge 3.x (CS4) runs
    much faster than 2.x (CS3) on my Mac, cache management is already a big disappointment (again). I find myself having to purge the cache
    for practically each and every folder, as at least one of the four info lines under each thumbnail fails to populate, usually the first line, "Date Created". On a few ".pct" images (Apple PICT), the Dimensions (in pixels) line refuses to populate even after repeated purging of the cache for the folder.
    What remains to be seen is whether ACR 5.2 is enough incentive to upgrade or not. Bridge 3.x falls a little short, the flashy effects in Photoshop are not enough by themselves.

    Ann,
    >I have absolutely NO desire to inflict unnecessary pain on myself intentionally.
    That's most commendable. :) Trust me, pain and grief is exactly what you would have.
    Here's another way I can confirm the bug:
    First I manually delete the cache folders, then do a global purge on startup (by holding the option key and checking the box in the dialog box). The "Date Created" info line is blank (data missing).
    Then I Build and Export Cache through the Tools menu. That fixes the missing data in the info line.
    Presumably, I now have a healthy cache.
    If I again purge the cache globally, through preferences or at startup, the "Date Created" info line goes blank instantly under ALL my thumbnails on all volumes connected at the time.
    Then I again Build and Export Cache through the Tools menu. That fixes the missing data in the info line under all thumbnails.
    To me, that is unmistakably a bug.

  • Had installed cs4 trial version, then tried to enter serial number, but it was invalid and now I can't seem to reinstall the trial version as I had been using, as it comes up serial number invalid even though I am just asking for a trial basis of 30 days.

    does anyone know what to do next so I can continue to use the trial versions of cs4. It appears as I have been kicked out for good because I entered the serial number wrong. Spoke to a rep and they said this was not available to purchase online, as it is an older version, but I need the old version to use the halftone option they have on cs4. sure would appreciate some advice, thanks to anyone who might have the answer.

    If the trial version is indicating it is no longer available and you need to enter the serial number to activate it then that is the end of the trial version for that machine.  If you have another machine then that will be one way of getting the trial version running for another trial period.
