Do I need to install CS4 full version before installing CS5 upgrade?

New hard drive in iMac. I have a full version of CS4 design premium and an upgrade version of CS5. Do I have to install both? Or can I just install CS5 upgrade and somehow use my CS4 full serial number to validate the CS5?

You have the right idea.  You do not have to install CS4.  At some point during installation of CS5 you will be required to enter the serial number for CS4 in order to confirm it as a valid upgrade installation

  • I have an academic version of Final Cut Studio on my laptop and recently purchased the most recent Full version of Final Cut Studio. Do I need to uninstall the academic version before installing the new version?

    I have an academic version of Final Cut Studio on my laptop and recently purchased the most recent Full version of Final Cut Studio. Do I need to uninstall the academic version before installing the new version? I ask because this is not an upgrade, but a completely new version.

    I'm with Jim on this.  It always seems to work out better if you do not install over another version.  You can use this app (freeware - thanks to Jon Chappel) to completely remove ALL Final Cut Studio apps and components: http://www.digitalrebellion.com/fcsremover/
    Once that's done, install your newly purchased version.

  • Do I need to uninstall CS4 (non-Education) before installing my new CS6 (Education) Design Standard

    Do I need to uninstall CS4 (non-Education) Design Standard before I install CS6 ( Education) Design Standard Software? How do I do this, is there an uninstall mechanism available?

    Hi bmcgon1,
    It doesnt matter if you uninstall  the older version or not.CS6 installer would be a new install and it would not overwrite or uninstall the older CS4 version software. if you dont intend to use the older version CS4 software you can unisntall using the Creative Suite Cleaner tool.

  • Do I need to buy CS4 two times to use CS5 Upgrade on a second computer?

    I have Adobe CS4 and I bought CS5 Upgrade with the right to use it on a second computer. Do I need to buy CS4 again to use CS5 on the secound computer?

    No.
    Just install CS5, enter your CS5 serial number then enter your CS4 serial number when prompted.

  • Why does it tell me I need to install the full version of flash player when I do have the full version installed.

    I'm trying to open a pdf attachment that apparently has flash content in it. When I go to the download page, it says I need to install the full version. We are set up to distribute within our company because part of our network is offline. I assumed what we were downloading is the full version. Is there something else I'm missing?

    Downloading from a browser?  If so, what browser?

  • I need help with CS6 - it continues to ask me to install the full versions of the programs after I have installed them multiple times.

    Hello,
    I am writing from my computer at work.  I have been working here since May and have been asked to install the full versions of CS6 MANY times now.  I work for a few days and then the count down pops up saying my trial has ended.  I am not working in a trial version - in fact I never was.  The IT dept. here has un-installed and re-installed the CS6 complete versions onto my computer about 4 times now.  We also "checked for updates".  None of these things seem to be working.  And then today to find out that no phone support to being offered to CS users any longer - only Cloud users - I am very disappointed.  We have tried every single thing there possibility could be to fix this.  I use Photoshop and Illustrator every day at work and I can not afford to be locked out of the programs because the trial has ended again and again and again. Please help ASAP.  

    See if this helps: Sign in, activation, or connection errors | CS5.5 and later

  • Installing a full version of Photoshop 6 on new iMac running SnowLeopard

    I currently use a PowerPC G5 running OS 10.5.8. The G5 uses the old processors and Photoshop CS5 upgrade won't load because Photoshop CS5 only runs on the new Intel processors. My question: If I buy a new iMac with the Intel processors, is there a way to install  a full version of Photoshop 6, and upgrade for Photoshop 7, CS, CS2, CS3, CS4, CS5? When my daughter tried this approach, and tried to install the full version of CS 6, she received the message Classic OS was not installed so that ended the attempt. Do I have to buy a full version Photoshop CS5 for the new iMac? Thanks for any help, Doug

    Another, often cheaper, route to upgrade is to find an older version upgrade and do a two step upgrade since you are out of the Adobe window.
    You may be able to find a CS3 upgrade, buy that. Then purchase the CS5 upgrade.
    http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Photoshop-CS5-Upgrade-Mac/dp/B003B32B14/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid =1294166832&sr=8-1
    This route would still cost $400. But that is still a couple hundred dollars less than buying a full version of CS5 outright.
    Just because Adobe stops selling older version upgrades, it doesn't mean all retailers stop selling them.

  • How to install a full version of Creative Cloud? The program just wouldn't let me although I bought it

  • How to install a "full" version of HTMLDB

    Hi,
    I've downloaded Oracle Express and I like the simplicity of the installation and setup. However the "version" of HTMLDB / Application Express has some differences from the full one available online. Particularly the Workspace concept.
    I really need to have a full version since I'll be having more then 1 developer working on an application. This doesn't seem to be possible in the version that comes with Oracle XE.
    I'd like to remove the current version and install the full HTML DB available online. Anyone know how I can do this?
    Thanks,
    Martin

    So the concept of the Workspace is dead?Well, the concept of a workspace is still there, but implicit only. Once an existing database user connects to http://localhost:8080/apex for the first time (e.g. HR), an implicit workspace is created on the fly. An Apex user for this workspace is created too, by copying the credentials of the database user to this workspace. This user is automatically created as the administrator of this workspace.
    The most noteworthy differences between Apex 2.1 (bundled with XE) and Apex 2.0 (standalone) are:
    1) No explicit administrators or developer accounts
    2) Only one schema per workspace, you cannot assign more schemas to a workspace.
    How can I allow multiple developers to work on the
    same application then?Well, since you cannot share components across workspace (subscription feature) I tend to organize as many applications in a single workspace as possible (related applications operating on common data).
    I guess I would create a single developer schema that has access to all related objects in different schemas (if necessary). Set it up using synonyms and grants.
    All developers would log in to Apex/XE using this developer account.
    My personal suggestion ;),

  • Need to download a full version of Adobe Reader 9.1

    I need to download a full version of Adobe Reader 9.1... The updates are no good, I need the whole thing to open old documents created in 9.1 on my old PC. Can anyone help ?? (PS : I'm not a big "computer" person, but I do know the original documents were created in 9.1 & won't open in the current version of "Adobe Reader" I just downloaded.) 

    The current version of Adobe Reader X available from the download site will open PDF files with any previous version number. If you have a file which doesn't open then the file itself is corrupted, or uses legacy code which has been disabled for security reasons.
    You can download version 9.1 from the Adobe FTP archive, but we strongly discourage installing it. Adobe has issued a number of security-critical updates since then, and using the old version would place you at risk.

  • I have the trial version of LR5, do I need to buy full version or just the upgrade?

    I have the trial version of LR5, do I need to buy full version or just the upgrade?

    If you have a paid-up version of LR4 or earlier, you can pay for an upgrade licence.  When you install LR and it asks for a licence, if you give it an upgrade licence then it will ask for the previous licence that you're upgrading. 

  • Do I need to uninstall academic version before installing retail version?

    I've been using my academic version of Final Cut Studio professionally and decided that I would buy the retail version when Studio 3 came out. So I purchased the New Version and am about to install. Since this is a full version, and not an upgrade version, I'm wondering if I need to uninstall my academic version of Studio 2 first?

    Read this thread for some great tips:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2113535&tstart=50
    Your new full version should just overwrite the old one in any case, but Jerry and the others give sound advice in the thread linked above.

  • I need a os x full version mac g5 leopard 10.5.8

    I need a os x full version, mac g5 leopard 10.5.8 I've been looking around for sometime, but been unable to find anything.

    Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard installation system requirements
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24950
    Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753).
    If you can't obtain a retail install DVD from Apple, look on eBay or Google the installer part numbers to possibly find at an on-line store. Here's what to look for:
    MB427Z/A  Leopard 10.5.1 install DVD
    MB576Z/A  Leopard 10.5.4 install DVD
    MB021Z/A  Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (single user)

    After you install the base 10.5, download & install the 10.5.8 combo update at http://support.apple.com/downloads/Mac_OS_X_10_5_8_Combo_Update
    The DVD should look like this
    Caution - Leopard does not support classic mode. So, if you currently open OS 9 apps in classic mode, you won't be able to do this if you upgrade to Leopard.

  • I need to install Mozella Firefox 2.0 to fill out a form that is not supported with the newer version that is installed on my PC. Do I need to delete the new version before using the older version?

    I need to install Mozella Firefox 2.0 to fill out a form that is not supported to input info from the newer version that is installed on my PC. Do I need to delete the newer version before using the older version? If so, how do I delete the new version and install the older version?

    If you just need it for one site you can use the portable version of Firefox 2 instead. You can install the portable version on a USB key, or if one is not available choose the custom install and install it somewhere on your hard drive. The portable version will not interfere with your current version of Firefox. You can get the portable version from http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable - the link for Firefox 2.0.0.20 is near the bottom of that page.

    I recently installed a trail version of a software and now to install the full version i have to delete the trail completely from my mac. How do I do that?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    If the new version has an uninstaller run it first. Othewise with Mac OS drag the app to the trash and empty the trash. Do an install if a dialog box asks if you want to replace or keep files with similar names choose replace.
