Do you need to uninstall Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 before installing Elements 12?

Is it best to uninstall Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 before installing Elements 12 or not?
If so, how do you save and transfer all Albums, Folders and Tags?
If not, do they transfer automatically?
Thanks,

  • 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 uninstall the old Firefox before installing the new version?

    I really don't have any problems with Firefox, just trying to find out if it is necessary to uninstall Firefox 4, before installing the new version?

    no, in fact, it's better to update it instead of installing the new one separately so that you don't loose your bookmarks and such.
    To update, open firefox and go to Help and chose About Firefox. you should see an update button there.

  • Unable to uninstall Adobe Photoshop CS5 12.1.1 via Control Panel (Win7)

    I was wondering if anyone can help me we currently have at least 100 users of Adobe Photoshop CS5 12.1 and it is deployed via SCCM 2007. I was able to patch Adobe Photoshop CS5 to v 12.1.1 using AAMEE and we are on the process of having it scripted so it can be pushed to our end users running Windows 7. I was successful in creating a new package using AAMEE but I cannot uninstall photoshop from the Control Panel (Programs and Features) the right click uninstall is disabled. Please note that I am a local admin on the Windows 7 machine that I am working on. Is there a registry key that I need to modify to enable the uninstall feature?
    Is uninstallation disabled from the control panel by default when photoshop is packaged using AAMEE?
    As of the moment if I need to uninstall Adobe Photoshop I need to run this command ‘msiexec /qn /x ‘Photoshop CS5.msi. I have tried to research on the internet but I was not able to find any solution. I am hoping you can help me when you get a chance
    Thank You,
    William

    I have found a solution to this problem. Install the files in safe boot mode. Here is the how to guide:
    Part One:
    With past attempts or even previous versions of Adobe CS can be still lying around on your mac, in order to remove the bits and bobs needed in order for a clean install you need to download the 'CS5 Cleaner Tool' by Adobe. This can remove all previous version of CS right back to CS3. This could be the problem effecting you download. This tool can be download from here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/829/cpsid_82947.html
    YOU MUST USE THIS TOOL BEFORE MOVING ON TO PART TWO.
    Part Two:
    To start up into Safe Mode (to Safe Boot), do this:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    (Source: Apple: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1455)
    Part Three:
    Now that you have let your machine boot up in Safe Boot.
        1. Locate the .dmg installation file. This can take a while to load, but be patient.
        2. Click to open the .dmg.
        3. Carry on with the installation as you normally would.
        4. Sit back and enjoy until its 100%.
    Once it has installed you can now restart your machine and boot up as normal. Log in and then it should be there in your applications to use.
    I have spent nearly 2 days myself trying to figure this out, and finally i have found a solution. I hope this helps anyone who has come across this problem themselves.
    Good Luck,
    John

  • I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and Adobe Premier 10 loaded on a Dell PC. Do I need to uninstall from the Dell before I install on a recently purchased Apple Mac Pro? There are separate disks for Mac and PC in the package.

    I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and Adobe Premier 10 loaded on a Dell PC. Do I need to uninstall from the Dell before I install on a recently purchased Apple Mac Pro? There are separate disks for Mac and PC in the package.

    Generally, it's ok to install on two machines as long as they are both yours and you only use one version at a time.
    BTW, this is the forum for Adobe Contribute.

  • Is it safe to uninstall Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 after installing Adobe Photoshop Elements 12?

    Is it safe to uninstall Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 after installing Adobe Photoshop Elements 12?  I just upgraded from 10 to 12 and wanted to know if it is safe or if there would be any issues with uninstalling and removing Adobe Photoshop Elements 10. 

    Yes you can, if you are happy with the way PSE12 is running.
    However both apps will happily co-exist, and there is no duplication as both use the same images on your hard drive.
    PSE10 also has some features now removed from PSE12 as Adobe transitions towards 64 bit applications. See my PSE12 first look link:

  • Need to Download Need to Download Adobe Photoshop Elements 10

    I can find the serial number details in my account, but no download link. The product/trials page only takes me to version 12.
    Any and all help in finding this elusive application would be most appreciated.

  • I am trying to uninstall Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and receive a 1316 error.

    I am trying to uninstall Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and receive a 1316 error.  The account already exists.  What?  I purchased and installed Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 and want to remove the older version.  Nothing works.

    Downloaded the trail versions and installed.  Had to do the trial versions because I no longer have the serial numbers.  Once I reinstalled, I was able to uninstall with no problems. 

  • Do I need to uninstall the Photoshop CS6 trial before installing Design & Web Premium?

    I'm studying game design and my school provides a full license for Photoshop CS6. Before they provide the license they require you to install the software and use the 30 day trial, so that's what I did - I just installed the Photoshop CS6 standalone version (the full thing, not Elements). Now that my trial period has expired I've been given the license, but it seems it's for the whole Creative Suite 6 Design & Web Premium, not just Photoshop.
    Should I uninstall Photoshop standalone before installing the whole Design & Web Premium suite? Or will it be okay if I go through the installation of the suite and just deselect Photoshop from the installation options? Is there any difference between the version that's installed on its own and the version that comes with the Design Premium suite? Will it affect any functionality in terms of transferring stuff between applications?
    I'm running Windows 7.
    Thanks in advance.

    Only if you want to or need the space... versions are independent... some people have several versions installed for testing different capabilities

  • I need to reinstall Adobe Photoshop 10.  Is the download still available?

    I need to reinstall Adobe Photoshop 10.  Is the download still available?

    Sadly, it looks like that site has expired and the download is no longer there.
    The link works fine. I just tried it and it's the link given to everyone who posts here asking for a link to Elements 10.
    You must follow the Very Important Instructions (steps 0 to 6) on that page first otherwise the download links will not work.
    Once you've followed the instructions then click the download link.

  • Uninstall Adobe Photoshop 9

    trying to uninstall Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 and get the dreaded "Erro 1327.Invalid Drive:F:\" - have read a few posts on this but can not seem to get any of them to work.  Any help would be appreciated to identify what I am doing wrong on this uninstall

    Not sure if this is going to help you:
    <http://support.microsoft.com/kb/327763>
    It is a very old solution for Windows 2000 but your case is slightly different because you are uninstalling a product while the solution is for installing a product.
    Anyway you can still try it.  Nothing ventured; Nothing lost.
    Good luck.

  • I need to uninstall Adobe Flash Player Installer/Uninstaller 14.0 r0

    I need to uninstall Adobe® Flash® Player Installer/Uninstaller 14.0 r0 but have looked everywhere for how to do this & can not find out how to do this can someone please help? I am using A Sony Vaio, Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit, I use Chrome Version 36.0.1985.143 m.
    I want to get it off of my system because ever since I installed it I have had problems with Chrome loading it does not want to load then if I restart my comptuter & I click on chrome  5 windows open up at one time a white box appears saying "Your profile can not be used because it is from a newer browser version of google chrome. Some features may be available. Please specify a different profile directory  or use a different version of chrome" then if you click ok it shuts all the windows down. I have figured a way to get one window to stay open so I can use chrome, now I do have other browser I can use but I do not like them  at all & do not have a flash player since mine is built in with Chrome. So on to the other problem that began as soon as I downloaded this & I understand it may not be this but I still want to get it off of my computer. I also have been having trouble with my flash player error messages: saying it has stopped working constantly, it says upgrade flash text, a plug in shock wave flash isn't responding then in (stop plug in) it wants you to hit.  I have run 3 different Mallware programs through my computer just in case that was one question that was going to be ask. No other programs jave been downloaded wither.
    I am not very good with computers so I have to come to places like this for help & I really have to have help explaining what to do because  do not know much about computers other then getting on them & surfing the web & some basic things. When chromes message said specify a different profile directory that went right over m head. So that should give you an idea where I am coming from. I want to thank you in advance & hope I have made sense in what I have written I tried to give all the information that I could.

    Your screenshot of task manager clarifies things.
    When I replied, I had been looking at the screenshot of the desktop from the original poster, which shows the uninstaller executable and it's properties.  That executable doesn't install anything -- it can just be dragged to the trash; however, that didn't completely align with the behaviors either of you were describing, and we've been trying to figure out what you were talking about.  It wasn't making a lot of sense to me, and it's not a question that I've seen come up before, at least not articulated this way.
    FlashUtil32_XX_XX_XX_XX.exe is the sandbox broker for Internet Explorer.  You can read more about the sandbox work here: Flash Player Security with Windows 8 and Internet Explorer 10
    The description listed in Task Manager is a bug, and the source of the confusion.  We've been doing a lot of work modernizing our build systems, and this is fallout from that work. This is something I'd like to see cleaned up, but it's pretty low on the list of priorities.
    The broker service is invoked when Internet Explorer is running in Protected Mode.  On my Windows 7 machine running IE 10, running Flash content in Internet Explorer with Protected Mode enabled causes the broker service to be invoked (this is probably true for previous versions as well, but I didn't test them).  If I disable Protected Mode and restart Internet Explorer, the broker is not invoked, which is expected.
    To disable Protected Mode, launch Internet Explorer and choose security.  Uncheck Enable Protected Mode.  Internet Explorer will restart, and you should be able to verify that the broker is no longer invoked when loading content with Flash Player.
    I've included a screenshot showing the expected processes in both scenarios below.  As the Flash Player ActiveX control is loaded into an Internet Explorer process, you'll see the child explorer.exe process listed, which hosts the Flash ActiveX control in the process list.
    Sandboxing the Flash Player plug-in is an important security mitigation intended to increase the cost of successfully developing and deploying malware.  While it's not a panacea, it significantly raises the bar for attackers.  As I'm sure you've read in the news and trade literature, the threat landscape has evolved significantly over the last few years, and modern security threats and their mitigations are a necessary reality.  New mitigations typically come with some additional processing overhead.  The overhead varies based on the architectural choices made by the particular browser vendors, but the overhead in IE is pretty reasonable.
    We haven't published a blog post specific to IE, but if you're interested in the implementation details, the sandbox architecture is similar to what we did with Protected Mode for Firefox on Windows.  The Flash Player process that handles untrusted content runs at Low Integrity, which restricts access to critical system resources in the event that you encounter malware designed to take control of the Flash Player process.  Access to system resources is negotiated through a Medium Integrity broker process.  Without Protected Mode, the Flash Player process handling untrusted content runs at Medium Integrity, making it easier for malware to escalate privileges from a hijacked process.  Depending on the functionality in play, a lot of message-passing can take place between IE, the broker and Flash Player.  We've effectively doubled the number of messages that get passed, plus put a bunch of validation checks in, and all of that consumes CPU.  It also makes your web browsing activity more secure.
    Some desktop applications (Yahoo Messenger, for example) also use the ActiveX version of Flash Player installed on your machine.  This could explain why you see Flash Player and the broker invoked unexpectedly.  We're also aware of an issue on Vista where the broker doesn't always exit as expected.  In that instance (and on WinXP), I'd highly recommend that people use Google Chrome for web browsing, as Google has extended some security mitigations that would only be available to Internet Explorer users running in newer versions of Windows, and it doesn't suffer from this specific issue with the broker.
