Deactivate Dreamweaver CS 4 doesnot succeed

Hi,
I hope somebody can help me out.
In another thread I got the anwer that I couldnot deïnstall Dreamweaver CS4 (and the whole websuite CS4)
because the of the also installed CS5.5.  CS5.5 needed the activation key of CS4 I was told. I now deïnstalled CS5.5 but CS4 still doesnot get deinstalled.
It confirms however that it has deïnstalled but when I open DW CS4 again all is working.
I need to deïnstall because my iMac Core 2 duo doesnot behave correct.
To repair that I need to cleaninstall the iMac.
The main thing which troubles me is that Timemachine doesn't make a back-up anymore.
Also SuperDuper is not able to make a back-up.
That means that if my iMac crashes I am left with no activation key.
My iMac crashed before probably because of that I couldnot activate CS4 on a second computer.
On this forum I was told that that should be possible.
How to deactivate CS4 so I can installed after a clean install of my iMac?
Thanks in advance

I would recommend posting regarding Dreamweaver to the Dreamweaver forum - http://forums.adobe.com/community/dreamweaver/dreamweaver_general. 
For #2 it is not required that you remove the previous version.  Especially if you are collaborating with other users using older versions it might be useful to keep the older version.  Also if you need to get a project done it might be useful to have the version you are use to and then learn CS5.5 when you have more time.
Finally for #3 the clean up tool is utilized if you are having difficulty uninstalling the software.  It is also used sometimes when there has been an unsuccessful installation and we need to back that installation out before installing again.  It should always be used after you have ran through the normal install process.  You can find more details at CS Cleaner Tool for installation problems | CCM, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.

  • Deactivate Dreamweaver cs3

    How do you deactivate dreamweaver cs3?  I now have cs4 and will be uninstalling cs3 but need to deactivate it first.  Thanks for any help on this issue!

    Activation Version 2.1, included with retail versions of CS3 (but not with volume license products), contains a feature that allows you to deactivate your product after you have installed and activated it.
    If this applies to you, then visit the following link:  http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb400786#notethree

  • How do I deactivate DreamWeaver when the hard drive died?

    How do I deactivate DreamWeaver when the hard drive died?  It will not reinstall on the new PC because it wants the old one deactivated, which is impossible.  There is no way I can deactivate it and I have a legitimate copy.  I had it on one PC that died, so I bought a new PC and put it on that.  A few days later I had to return the new one because of problems with the PC.  They give me a replacement which seems to be working OK, only now Adobe thinks I have DreamWeaver all over the place.  I don't have it anywhere.  All I want to do is put my legitimate copy on my new PC.  HELP!!!

    You need to contact Adobe Support either by chat or via phone when you have serial number and activation issues.  They can take care of the deactivation for the lost drive.  Chat operates 24/7.
    Here are some links to help make contact:

  • Deactivate Dreamweaver- Windows crashed, linux?

    I have Dreamweaver CS3 installed on my computer as well as my laptop and it is essential that I have it at both because I am not able to always have my laptop with me and vice versa. A few days ago my computer crashed and I have been getting the BSOD, blue screen of death, everytime I turn on the computer and it says that my hard drive is corrupt. However, I am able to use a Ubuntu Linux start up flash drive I created a boot up the computer using Linux and access my hard drive. I was wondering if there was anyway to deactivate Dreamweaver by using Linux and somehow editing or changing the .exe file or something because I know Linux cannot open .exe files. Any help would really be appreciated because if I can not figure this out then i will lose usage in one of my computers.

    You need to call support by phone. Nothing anyone here can do.

  • Deactivate Dreamweaver CS3 after uninstalling?

    Hope someone can help me out here...
    Basically, back in the day, I had Dreamweaver MX, and upgraded to CS3 when it came out.
    I've recently invested in Web Premium CS5, but discovered I cannot use ADDT in CS5, so I need to fire up CS3 again to do so.
    However, I've run into a problem in that I can't activate on my new iMac, as there are no activations left.
    I've tried reinstalling it on my old MBP just to deactivate and then uninstall it, but run into an issue in that it wants me to insert a Photoshop Elements disc, which I don't have.
    I even managed to find my old MX disc to try reinstalling that, to see if that would get rid of the PE6 request, but the disc is so old it no longer works.
    Any suggestions as to how I can get CS3 deactivated on my old MPB to activate it on my new machine?
    Very frustrating, as I just need it for a very few features of ADDT that work very well in my workflows.
    Thanks.

    Thanks Murray - do you know how it works - would I just give them my CS3 serial and they can do something at their end that'll allow me to activate it again?

  • Deactivate in CS3 not working

    I tried to deactivate Dreamweaver CS3 for installing on a new computer. It was not working. It said there was no Internet Connection. This was clearly not true. It said there might be a problem with the firewall or a proxy. I checked both, this was not the case.
    Then I tried to access https://activate.adobe.com via nmap, ping and a browser. This worked and the certificate was valid. Hereafter I checked the DNS and I noticed that the url was forwarded to https://activate.wip4.adobe.com . Unfortunately this site had no valid certificate.
    The solution
    I tried to add this line to my host file (c:\windows\system32\drivers\ets\hosts
    192.150.16.69          activate.adobe.com
    And after this I could deactivate CS3! I hope some of you can use this solution until Adobe sorts it out.

    I'm able to make the droplet, but when I try to drag a folder over it Photoshop doesn't recognize it and tries to place the file next to the droplet icon. I'm not getting any error messages. Batch processing is working.
    Reading a related windows os post on this problem suggests that it could be due to some remaining files from a removed CS2 version.
    Perhaps my question should be how to remove all previous traces of CS2 from mac os x.

  • Activation of Dreamweaver

    I purchased Dreamweaver about a year ago and installed it on two machines.
    About 6 months later I formatted one of the hard drives and at the time didn't realise that I needed to deactivate Dreamweaver and so was not able to re-install.  I was willing to accept the inconvenience and to be honest, trying to find somewhere on the Adobe website to resolve this problem took several hours out of my life and to I let it go.
    A week ago I spilt a glass of wine over my keyboard and my laptop is now dead.  I'e tried to reinstall Dreamweaver, but am unable to do so.
    Can anyone help, because trying to find a contact point at Adobe is one of the most frustrating experiences in my life.
    All I want to do is to be able to use the licence tha I bought on my two machines.
    Thanks

  • Dreamweaver cs3 deactivation/activation problem

    I am trying to deactivate Dreamweaver CS3 on my windows pc and it is not working.  I have tried to activate it on my laptop but am having no success with that either.  My Dreamweaver CS3 serial number is

    Please can someone help with this problem ?

    Broadcasting your serial number to the entire internet probably isn't going to help things in the activation department.
    Can a moderator delete that?

  • ODBC SQL Server Driver

    LS,
    I’m new to this forum, so probably this question is
    asked several times, but maybe someone might help me to locate the
    right answer or give me some direction.
    I’m working with Dreamweaver MX 2004 and building a
    website. On a remote server I’ve MS SQL Server 2005 running.
    After building a recordset and making the right connection
    with the SQL database I receive an error message: [Microsoft][ODBC
    SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Login failed user
    ‘SERVER-001\Gast’.
    The server is recognised as SERVER-001, I don’t now how
    Dreamweaver comes up with “Gast” which means Guest.
    I really appreciate any help to get my ASP page running and
    connecting with the SQL Database.
    By the way I’m working with VB in Dreamweaver. And I
    succeeded previous ASP pages but then connecting to Access Dbase.
    Maybe the Server or ISS is not correctly configured, I don’t
    know for now.
    Thanks in advance.

    My colleague is telling me that connecting to another database on that same virtual machine is working fine. He doesn't see difference between OBDC DSN for working and not working databases and he doesn't see differences between schema for that particular
    table.
    Could it be something in the database properties that would explain this weird behavior? Any more ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

  • No Deactivation Menu Item?

    I want to move Dreamweaver CS3 to a new computer. I want to
    deactivate the license on the old computer first. However, when I
    click the Help menu, there are no Activate or Deactivate menu items
    listed. The two menu items called Download e-license and Return
    e-license are there but are grayed out.
    Does anyone know how I should deactivate Dreamweaver CS3
    since I appear to be missing the menu items. I already have the
    product installed on 2 machines (per the license agreement) so I
    think it will be important to deactivate this one before I install
    it on a 3rd machine.
    Thanks!

    There is no iTunes menu item for photos. When you connect your iPhone in iTunes left sidebar (under "Devices") the main window will show the iPhone sync selections. Across the top of the window are sic tabs, each of which can be selected by clicking on them. They are Summary, Info, Ringtones, Music, Photos, Videos, and Applications. That's the photo tab you need to click.

  • Validation Rule & Report

    Hi,
    In our Application, FDM is loading data into HFM database even if the validation rule fails.
    As per my understanding, FDM should not load data into HFM, if any one of the validation rule doesnot succeed.
    Is some settings need to be enabled to perform this check ?
    Can anyone guide me.
    Thanks,
    Siva

    Hello,
    The validation report is part of the 'Check' fish (4th fish). The data is already done loaded at the Export/Load fish (3rd fish)
    The purpose of the Check fish (and the report it produces: Validation Report) is to verify the accuracy of the data that was loaded.
    Thank you.

  • Adobe Licensing

    I have a bad hard drive in my new Dell computer!  The new hard drive will be 
    here soon and I'm trying to back everything up, etc.  I have Adobe Creative 
    Suite 4.  What do I need to do with regard to releasing the license so I can 
    install the software on the new hard drive?
    Best scenario the hard drive will keep limping along until the new one gets here and then I would 'deactivate' Dreamweaver and take switch hard drives.  Do I need to deactivate all Creative Suite 4 products ... or does deactivating one get the job done fo all?  Then, how do I get the new activation code?
    Many thanks.
    LinK

    All you need to do is open up one program and choose de-activate.  This will de-activate the entire suite.  No uninstall is required but I would recommend during the de-activate that you chose the option to erase the serial number from the installation.
    Then just install the suite again on your new hard drive.  Worst case scenario you would have to call Adobe for a manual activation process, but the online process usually works if you de-activate the old installation first.

  • Virus attack on my computer - please help

    I have a virus on my computer and need to erase my entire
    hard drive and re-install the operating system.
    What do I need to do with my website (created with
    Dreamweaver 2004)? Do I just need to reinstall the Dreamweaver
    program and then import my website from the net? Is that possible?
    Do I need to write down some kind of code or number or something
    before I erase everything? I really don't know what to do. Please
    help me.
    Thank you so much!

    open dreamweaver.
    go to dw menu->Manage Sites
    select a site from list on left, then click Export
    Save the .ste file {and move it off computer before trashing
    drive}
    rinse/lather/repeat for other sites.
    then might as well make a backup copy of this site's Local
    Site Folder
    then deactivate dreamweaver under the help menu.
    If no activate/deactivate menu, then uninstall the
    application.
    then reinstall dreamweaver, import the .ste site definition,
    and either copy
    the backup files or connect and get the files from the remote
    server.
