CS5.1 replaced my CS5 with problems

I have written this a few minutes ago but th forum shows only a blank sheet
Following the advice of a knowledgeable individual, i attempte to consolidate my many actions into a single master folder and to use aliases in the appropriate folders oc CS5 and CS 6, to avoid clutter.
After i finished, WHATEVER it was that I MAY HAVE DONE, i attempted to restart CS5. I was shown a message that some important files were missing and that I must reinstall CS5. I then uninstalled CS5.
I could find only a .dmg file for CS5.1. It was already present on my hard drive. I ran that installer and now I have Photoshop CS5 and a Photoshop CS5.1 folders, along with the appropriate bridge, manager, prefs, folders, etc.
Now both of these apps appear to run fine but there is a problem with prefs. Also, i don't know which of these to delete, and which associated folders. I suppose all that are labeled with CS5 or with CS5.1.
any advice other, than "be very ashamed"?
thanks,
vince

Noel, thianks for responding.
no, i was referring to "action" files.
i had CS4, CS5, and CS6 installed on my imac wirh lion.
these were installed in sequence as they became available. I don't recall copying actions from older versions to newer ones, and just assumed that adobe did this during installation.
i became aware that in each of the folders, for these three versions, that there was a preset folder, each of which contained and actions folder.
The actions were much the same for each version. I asked a fellow member of this forum about this. AS I UNDERSTOOD THE REPLY, he said to create a single folder "anywhere" on the disk, place all the actions into that folder, ( without duplicates), and that once this was done that i could make aliases for all these actions and drag a set of "aliases" into the actions folder present in each versions folder (could anyone follow this sentence?).
I did this. i then attempted to run CS5 and saw "important folders missing. you must reinstall CS5" (to paraphrase).
The rest is error on my part. I own the orig disk for CS5 but somehow forgot that. I found, on my hard disk, a dmg that said CS5.1, didn't notice the ".1" . i installed and now had CS5.1 on my disk, as well as the other 3 versions. i have fixed all that.
Still, i have complete original action files in each of my actions folders for all the versions that i have installed.
It was even more complicated than this long story above.
if you have some advice about where to put actions..... i have proven i will chance most anything.
thanks for your curiosity,
vince

Replacing CS5 with CS4

I'm considering replacing Dreamweaver CS5 with CS4 because my textbook follows CS4, and there are several new features in CS5 that are not covered by the textbook. If I do this, will my existing webpages created by CS5 be destroyed? Will I be able to open them using CS4?

DW is designed so that you can open (almost) any HTML page in it, so you should be able to open pages created in CS5 in CS4. The worst case is that it may look a little different.
Note that you'll get a better response for general questions about DW here:

Problem with preloader in Cs5 with AS2

Hey,
I made a preloader in Cs5 with AS2 code:
mask_mc._height = 1;
this.onEnterFrame = function():Void
var loading :Number = this.getBytesLoaded();
var total :Number = this.getBytesTotal();
var precent:Number = Math.round(loading/total*100);
mask_mc._yscale = precent;
txt.text = precent + "%";
if (loading >= total)
gotoAndStop(2);
because I realized that what I'm used to in Cs4 is not working in Cs5. It works fine but, when I press a button that supose to go to another frame, it stock on frame 2.
How can I solve it?

terminate that loop:
mask_mc._height = 1;
this.onEnterFrame = function():Void
var loading :Number = this.getBytesLoaded();
var total :Number = this.getBytesTotal();
var precent:Number = Math.round(loading/total*100);
mask_mc._yscale = precent;
txt.text = precent + "%";
if (loading >= total)
delete this.onEnterFrame
gotoAndStop(2);

Replace Bridge CS5 with Bridge CS6?

Hi All (my first post, whoop!),
Having been using Photoshop CS5 with Bridge CS5 happily for sometime, we've now purchased InDesign CS6 which has installed Bridge CS6.
Can I uninstall the now redundant Bridge CS5 without upsetting Photoshop?
I have searched this forum but couldn't find an answer (maybe I missed a thread somewhere).
Thanks for your help,
Matt
p.s. We use Macs.

No, you cannot uninstall Bridge separately. It's simply not possible for technical reasons. Bridge CS6 can use PS CS5, though, and conversely, PS will happily use a newer version of Bridge without much ado, give or take a few specific cases. Check the file associations in Bridge and your system in general.

Dw cs5 with existing wordpress site hosted on yahoo need help connecting to existing remote database

I am having trouble establishing a database connection. I can connect with test databases but am having trouble using dreamweaver wtih my existing wordpress website. Am I able to use dreamweaver to edit and live view my changes before uploading the changed files to my live site? Am I able to access my existing wordpress database with dreaweaver? I have imported it to my testing server/database but still seem to be having trouble establishing a connection with it (think maybe my folder hierarchy might be off).
macintosh HD/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/nwm/wp/index.php
"nwm" is the name of the folder that I have copied all of my site files to and the folder I have dreamweaver pointing to. "wp" is what I have all of the wordpress files in (the ones I copied from my yahoo server - including all my current theme files etc.)
I am trying to put the info into the mysql connection dialog box:
Connection Name: Testing (i am assuming this name is for my benefit only and doesn't actually matter)
MySQL Server: mysql
User Name: *****
Password: *****
Database: wp
and am getting this message
MySQL Error#: 2013
Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error 61
did some google seaches of the error. Tried turning off the firewall, and the advance tab allow mysql incoming (there were 2 one was allow one was not allow. I changed both to allow)
Cant really find anything on yahoo to help me out. Looked in phpmyadmin database named wp: wp_users to get the username and password (which due to previous look for help - I think the password was encrypted cuz it looked like a bunch of mumbo jumbo and am fairly certain I know the correct password).
Any help would be greatly appreciated!! I spent $50 on live chat last night trying to resolve the issue only to find out at the end that the guy really didn't understand my problem and doesn't have dreamweaver. I have also watched countless videos on Lynda.com and have been thru forum after forum. While this problem is only a couple weeks old since I just got CS5. I have been having trouble making any headway learning php since I cant seem to make it past the set up parts. I have done the php / mysql essential training on lynda.com with relative success except that I really dont want to work with any more exercise files so I didn't go on to the beyond the basics. I recently went thru most of the Dreamweaver CS5 and Wordpress 3. Also did the first 4 chapters of Dreamweaver CS5 with PHP and MySQL. I need to start integrating things into my live sites. I am also trying to work my way thru the learning php, mysql, javascript book by o'reily media by robin nixon (as fun as reading a math text book) can't get thru it since I can't relate any of it to my current sites/needs
I am on MacBookPro OSX 10.6.6
Installed MAMP to specification on all 20 tutorials I have tried including lynda.com
Tested the testing server and is working
Just installed dreamweaver cs5
have been using wordpress online to create and edit posts (recently upgraded to 3.? whatever the latest update was online which I believe update the files on my yahoo server?)
Have also installed wordpress on my computer (several times thru each tutorial trying to get this right.)
Am I expecting the impossible?

If wordpress controls it's own connection why am I unable to use the live view. I have synced the remote site to my local computer so all the files should be just as they are online with the exception of the DB which contains most of the content.
I have done all of those steps. I have even exported the database from inside internet phpmyadmin and imported into computer phpmyadmin. When I hit live view I get one of couple of errors.
1. "One is that the dynamic related files could not be displayed due to an internal server error"
At some point I was able to view some sample files inside dreamweaver. But I would like to be able to view my real site files. I was able to "connect" to the local databases (not the copy of my real one - I think that maybe that was because it is somehow nested inside another db an am going try to reimport to new location). And then I changed the host/username/password trying to deal with the internal server error. Now instead I get the cannot connect to the database Error 2016 or whatever from the origianl post. Also, I am using yahoo if that matters and all I can find about what their server name is: mysql - is that correct?
I have been thru this so many times with so many different tutorials I am losing track of what is what.
2. Can I access my remote database within dreamweaver? I do not want to create dummy files (seems to be a waste of time). And while if it had worked exporting/importing a duplicate on to my computer would have satisfied me for a little while it also seems some what counter productive. Since every post and page is different if I were doing a daily updates etc how would I be able to change the formating or design of them if I can't access the remote files. Would I re- import everytime I want to work on it to get current database?
I am trying to be clear. I listed all the specs I could think as listed in your "how to get help fast post" (yes I read that at least twice too) of all of the steps and possible reasons for my problems. I also thought that the forum was on a seperate site so I didn't think it would count as a duplicate. I am frustrated to tears and am feeling incredibly stupid that after all this time and all these tutorials yes you are right I obviously am not understanding what is going on which is why I am on this forum.

DW CS5 with PHP: no "register_long_arrays" in php.ini

Mr. Powers: I bought your book, “Adobe DW CS5 with PHP: Training from the Source.” I am running MAMP Pro 1.9.6 on a Mac Pro Intel, OS 10.6.8. Following your instructions in Chapter 2, I have changed ALL the settings per Table 2.1, EXCEPT “register_long_arrays” which I cannot find (searched every permutation in BBEdit) in either of the php.ini files listed. The php info v. 5.2.17 shows:
Configuration File (php.ini) Path: /Applications/MAMP/conf/php5.2
Loaded Configuration File: /Library/Application Support/appsolute/MAMP Pro/conf/php.ini
and the “PHP Core” section shows “register_long_arrays” = On.
Why can’t I find the setting in either php.ini file? Also, I have read that this setting has been deprecated in PHP 5.3; what does that mean to my configuration?
You recommend matching certain settings to the host’s server configuration; it would be very useful in avoiding potential problems to have a complete list of these configuration/parameter recommendations for a prospective host, don’t you think?

Thank you, SnakEyez02. At this point, I haven't gotten far enough to understand super-globals but I'm grateful for your help. After much head-banging, I believe the solution to my problem lies on this forum [ Re: Snow Leopard, MAMP php.ini Question ]. Though Mr. Powers recommends using MAMP Pro in the book, he doesn’t mention that changes made to settings in /Library/Application Support/appsolute/MAMP Pro/conf/php.ini are NOT LOADED and not reflected in the phpinfo.php file at subsequent server startups as they would be if I were using MAMP (not PRO). In order for the settings changes to be loaded by MAMP Pro, editing must be done through the MAMP Pro interface menu /File/Edit Template/PHP 5.2.13 php.ini.
Having opened that template, I'm now faced with a another unforeseen question: what to do with
[setting] = MAMP_error_reporting_MAMP
when the book says that setting should be either “= On” or “= Off.” If you can help me with this one, you’ll make my week!

FIXED!!
1)
i finally did get the message problem was with:
$mailhost='ssl://mail.domain.com';
ssl:// was just nonsense and been removed
2)
'auth' => 'true' was changed to 'auth' => 'login'
3)
for bluehost i got information that it was tls secure connection protocol not ssl
'ssl' => 'tls'
4)
port used '25' not 465.
Didnt still tried 26 and 465 maybe they would work too.

Help ma boab did you migrate over your applications and settings from your old computer? It does appear the installer was unable to create the Adobe Photoshop CS5 folder since your current User account did not have sufficient access to either modify they Applications or Adobe Photoshop CS5 folder if it already exists.
If you migrated/copied any files or applications from your old computer then I would recommend running the uninstaller from the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder. Once you have uninstalled please run the CC Cleaner Tool prior to reinstalling Photoshop CS5. Please see Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html for information on how to use the CC Cleaner Tool.

CS5 stroke problems

Hi guys.
Yeah, i know, actually there's a discussion here about cs5 stroke problems.
But my problem is a little bit different (sorry if i'm wrong).
If i just draw an open path i can use any stroke weight i want to, but if i join the path with another open path or close the path that i'm working, it automatically changes the stroke to 1pt and i can't change its weight.
Well, i could be wrong, but any adobe program uses XML in order to create anything and any file, right? So, is there any way to change this information edditing this XML?
Maybe this can help us to change some settings that we cannot change after we create a new document (like "align new objects to pixel grid").
Thanks for reading.
Cheers.

That's not the normal behaviour. Elaborate what you're doing in detail.

What is the background of that assumption?

Photoshop CS5 color problem

Hello Photoshoppers,
I hope you guys can help me out with a problem i am facing for a few months now. I still haven't found a solution for it.
I was buzzy with a tutorial from the megazine "Webdesigner". The left side is the document i just started. The right side is the .psd that came from the CD which is delivered with the webdesigner megazine for learning purposes. This is a screenshot i made from it. As you can see there is a difference in the colors. Both files are .psd. When i use the 'eyedropper tool' and compare the color codes they are the same.
Here a second example:
A document i created from scratch. I saved it for the web (.png) and put it side by side.
On the left side the .psd document, and on the right side the .png that i saved for the web.
Again the same colors when i use the 'eyedropper tool'.
I use Photoshop CS5 with a Macbook Pro 15
I hope you guys can help me out with this.

Left side:
Right Side:
If i stay with the top image.
The left side: Adobe RGB (1998)
The right side: sRGB IEC61966-2.1
