Do i have to uninstall cs3 before installing lightroom5?

just the question

There is no need to uninstall CS3. LR5 will recognize that you already have a version of Photoshop installed. But CS3 has an older camera raw plug-in. You will simply get a warning whenever you choose Edit In CS3 from Lightroom. As long as you let Lightroom render the copy being sent to CS3, there should be no problem and it will contain all of the develop settings from LR5. Click on the Open Image button to go straight into the Photoshop CS3 editor. On the first warning about camera raw incompatibility you can choose “do not show again” Just don’t click on Open Anyway otherwise it will open in the older version of camera raw contained in CS3.

  • Is it necessary to uninstall CS3 before installing CS4?

    I currently have CS3 Premium (Student Licsense) on my MacBook. I bought CS4 Premium (also a Student License) from my college and am planning on installing that so that I will be up to date with what is in our graphic design computer lab. But I wasn't sure if I needed to uninstall CS3 before installing CS4. My school doesn't sell the upgrade so I had to buy the actual CS4. I'm pretty sure my laptop doesn't have room for both, but I just wanted to get some feedback on all of this so that I can make sure I'm doing everything correctly.
    I was also wondering if my CS3 files that are currently saved on my MacBook will be effected in any way when I uninstall CS3 and install CS4?

    No need to uninstall.
    In fact its wise to keep the older version until you are familiar with the new version. I have almost all versions of Photoshop going back to 2.5.1 as well as the 4 creative Suites happily installed and working together on my G5.

    If this is an update from Windows 8 then you should be OK although you should backup your library regularly regardless.

  • Should I uninstall CS3 before installing CS6? [was:Ton Limburg]

    Do I have to uninstall all CS3 applications and extras, before installing CS6?

    Of course I'll keep all my in CS3 made files for further use, and I'll upgrade them if needed.
    I asked for retaining or removing applications... before installing newer versions, no upgrades.
    But don't mention anymore, I deleted them.

  • Should I uninstall CS3 before installing CS6 (not an upgrade)?

    I have unsuccessfully installed CS6 onto a machine that already has CS3. I have gone through the whole CS6 installation and just can't find the new app anywhere - and CS3 is still there.

    It should not be necessary. Except for Acrobat all the apps are independent. What OS are you running? Any error messages?

  • I am running CS4 and want to run the trial version of CC to see if I want to begin a contract with Adobe.  Do I have to uninstall CS4 before installing CC?

    I have a lot of CS4 files on my system and don't want to loose them if I upgrade to CC trail version.  I am NOT a heavy user but use it consistently through out the year to do promotion for my small business.  If I decide NOT to continue with CC can I get bact to CS4?

    Hi J-marshall,
    You can have 2 versions installed aside of each other. Bot programs have their own folders. The files from CS4 can be read by the CC version. The other way around does not work for most file types. For example InDesign. To save for an older version is documented for most programs.
    After CC trial / subscription removal the CS4 will stay on the system and works without issue.

  • Uninstalling CS3 and Installing CS5.5 (Master Collection)

    I purchased CS 5.5 master collection so that I could use the current CS3 master collection on another older machine.  My question is this: What is the best way to uninstall the CS3 master collection on my current machine (Windows 7 - 64bit) so I can then install the new full version CS5.5 master collection? Also, is there anything that I need to be aware of as far as backing up on the old software settings?  Just trying to avoid headaches.

    The only thing you would need to worry about is any "presets" that you created yourself. So actions, swatches, brushes, etc. need to be backed up. Its best to uninstall cs3 before installing cs5 and not after as this can cause issues with file associations.
    If the second computer that your were planning on putting cs3 on is your only other computer, you should be able to put cs5 on it instead, as the license is suppose to be for 2 systems, but only one can run at a time. To my knowledge this license doesn't take into consideration the version number of the software. So if cs5 if on your new system and a laptop for example, you can not put cs3 onto a third computer since the license is for what I assume to be an upgrade.
    If you paid full price then the last paragraph is a moot point.

    First of all, why did you say yes to Nero Back up before researching what it does with files already on the HDD? When I install Nero, the Back Up is the first thing I disable, it is a nagging pain, there are much better backup programs available. There are several file recovery programs out there to recover deleted files, that is, if that is what happened. Also, if you haven't overwritten the files, so you should be able to find them.

    I currently have Photoshop  elements 10 on my computer. I recently purchased PS elements/premiere 12.  Can I load 12 over 10 or do I have to uninstall 10 before loading 12?

    Both are separate programs. You can have both 10 and 12 installed at the same time.

  • I currently have CS3 on my computer, do I have to uninstall CS3 in order to download CS6 cloud apps?

    I recently purchased a subscription to the CS Cloud - I currently have CS3 installed on my computer, do I have to uninstall CS3 in order to download CS6 cloud apps? Will there be any conflicts if I don't? I am currently running a website with CS3 and building a new one, I don't want to disrupt the current one until the new one is ready.

    No there is no need to uninstall, you can run both on same machine without issues.

  • When I open iWeb it does not "Highlight" the New site or new page options. It ahs had this issue for over a year! I have tried uninstalling and re-installing it. What do I do? It opens the tutorial video, then when you close it, nothing else is clickable.

    Open iPhoto, select a couple of photos and use the Share ➙ iWeb ➙ Photo page menu option.  That has jump started iWeb for others.  I could take a couple of tries.
    If that doesn't work try the following:
    1 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iiWeb.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iWeb's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your

    3 - launch iWeb and try again.

    StackHash error has something to do with VISTA's DEP (Data Execution Prevention)
    I managed to get something online from Tech expert and hope this will resolve your issue.  Good Luck!!
    The StackHash error happens any time DEP is found that there is an issue with the program run. The error is related to Data Execution Prevention. Here’s how 99 percent of Vista and Win7 users can fix a StackHash failure:
    Click the run button and open the Control Panel
    Browse to the section of System Maintenance then to the System
    At the left side, select Advanced System Settings link
    In the System Properties Window the top section is named as Performance with the Settings button. Click this button.
    Choose the Data Execution Prevention tab.
    Select the option which reads Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select.
    Use the Browse button to locate the executable file for the application you were trying to start when you received the StackHash error, and click Open to add it to your exceptions list.
    Click Apply or OK to commit your changes.
    Note: Nobody can guarantied you that described instruction will solve the 100% of the StackHash error issues but you can try it to resolve the problem.
