Help with uninstall

Some time ago I downloaded the  trial for Indesign CS4 (I  use CS3). I decided not to buy it and uninstalled the demo. Today, I needed to reinstall my photoshop cs3 and tried to do so from the original disk. It would  only let me reinstall both photoshop and indesign. Well ok, I'll do that,  but then it asked me to insert the Indesign CS4 disk and of course I couldn't so it would not finish the reinstall of photoshop. I no longer have the cs4demo installer so I can't try uninstalling it again. What do I do.

Well, if you want to uninstall all of the CS4 stuff (which is what your post sounds like), then Google for "Adobe CS4 clean script," which will help you remove everything, at which point you can reinstall your Photoshop CS3.

  • I need help with uninstalling FP so I can install FP or some hemlock

    I cannot get flash player to install, uninstall so that I can install, as all the instructions tell us to do.  That insane crazy pop up that tells you to install FP, that you can only say no to so that it will go away is making me want to eat a bullet.  I cannot take it much longer.  I have no idea what to do.  And, the crazy thing is that I did do something a couple weeks ago that made it all stop and then somehow it started again. Sux to fix something but not know what you did, so that you break it again.  Anywho, I have tried everything from doing a manual install with the downloader, tried downloading an older vs, but I could not find one that was compatible with Vista, which is my operating system (32 bit).  I did go to the hyperlink provided on another persons delimna and the site said that I have the most current vs of FP installed.  But, it is not showing in my programs list nor is it in my files in my C drive, nor a trace of it in common files.  It is not in regedit in local machine/software/adobe.  I cannot find it, only the saved programs to uninstall or install it saved to desktop.  Wait, I just rechecked my programs and features and it shows flashplayer 10 Actuve X and shockwave player 11.5, both of which are not found anywhere else in my computer.  I am so weary of all of this.  I just need help.  Please, please please,  It is horrible because you have to have fp to run certain programs, but it will not run and I do not  know if this is a Adobe issue, Windows issue or a Vaio issue.

    Hokay, I have Norton 360, it is run regularily, I also ran ESET this week, I use malwarebytes, pest patrol, registry repair.  I took adaware and mcafee off my system as I was told that too many virus softwares conflict and can cause problems.  I have had my email stolen, along with the book, it appears someone stripped my email and sold it to a spammer.  It is not coming from my computer. Makes me very upset.  I have turned this into the FBI cyber crimes site, AOL and Yahoo, since the link emails in the details are yahoo accounts.  I get the spam emails as well.  Ppl who click on the hyperlinks, some of them are getting viruses, but as I said, these are not being generated by me, but rather from the web.  I hate these ppl.  My system appears clean.
    The pop ups are what everyone who is complaining about this issue are getting, I am assuming.  I am seeing this complaint all over.  Here is the information about the pop up:
    It pops up with any navigation you try to do in IE....any.  It will pop up ten times in a row during simple functions.  Makes you insane.  And the only way you can answer it is to click don't allow.  End of story.  over and over and over.  If you research, web wide you are told to uninstall FP and then reinstall, and there are hyper links provided to do it with, and then you are told to try doing it manually with the Adobe downloader.  NOTHING works.  I am truly so upset, I cannot use my laptop, a storm surge ate my desktop and I am waiting on insurance to replace that the the iPad is limited.  I have no idea which or what is the prob, IE, Adobe or Vaio, which is my make of computer.  But, this is so ridiculous.

  • Help with uninstalling "old" Adobe Reader

    Since I trust anything Adobe 100%, I did not hesitate to follow a link (contained in "Adobe for Andoid" email from you to me) to install Adobe Reader on my new NOOK HD+ 32.  IT IS A "BAD" LINK, details were forwarded to Adobe by Chrome Support 7-2-13.  What I have been told from Barnes and Noble, Chrome, Google and Adobe "HELP" Professionals  is to uninstall the download.
    You'd think even a 56 year old tech-novice could handle this, right?!?  I Can't because the "Unfortunately System UI message freezes everything up until I respond "okay".... Between my "okay" and typing the "uninstall "  address to my Search bar, the "UI' message has taken over my screen and has frozen every  click I know how to make.  After doing this 5+times, all of the icons begin to shake and then the page completely turns itself off.
    I am hoping someone is able to advise me how to "uninstall" from somehere other than my Nook.
    Thank you very much,
    Mizrallen623

    It's really hard to say what's going on without knowing more about the system. It's possible that the program is generating an FDF (Forms Data Format) file and launches it, causing the PDF to load and populate with the data in the FDF. Folks have reported that recent changes to Reader have broken this type of thing. So you may need to go back to an even earlier version, such as 9.2 or 9.3, or somehow contact the developers of the application for help.
    Is this something that happens in a web browser?

  • Help with uninstalling avast! completely

    I recently installed avast! free antivirus and it kept giving me a warning that some file (bootloader or something like that) had a warning because of it's "decompression rate". After some research, found out it was harmless and recommended that I uninstall avast! for an alternative. So I uninstall avast with the uninstaller it came with, however, now when I check my console log, every 10 seconds it shows a log for "com.avast.helper" that says "Error connecting to master socket:  connect ( ) : No such file in directory". How can I permanently stop this, and possibly remove any remaining fragments left from avast!? I tried going into my library, but the application folder for avast! was no longer there.

    It should have come with an uninstaller for you to use. Restart the computer after you uninstall.
    Uninstalling Software: The Basics
    Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash.  Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder.  Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space.  If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
    Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application.  In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
    Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder.  You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder.  You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder.  Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
    Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item.  Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder.  Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences.  Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab.  Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
    Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS.  Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
    If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term.  Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default.  You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, EasyFind, instead.
    Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder.  Usually with the same name as the program or the developer.  The item generally has a ".pkg" extension.  Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
    There are many utilities that can uninstall applications.  Here is a selection:
        1. AppZapper
        2. AppDelete
        3. Automaton
        4. Hazel
        5. AppCleaner
        6. CleanApp
        7. iTrash
        8. Amnesia
        9. Uninstaller
      10. Spring Cleaning

  • Need Help with UNINSTALLING Photoshop CS

    Hey everyone
    I want to uninstall my Photoshop CS application on my mac (The whole CS suite actually) since its takes up a ton of room and I no longer use it.
    So I want to know how can I safely uninstall them. I read around and watched some youtube vids. Some people say just throw it all in the trash and empty it. Others say not to do that.
    I put in the first disk thinking there would be an uninstall thing there but there wasn't.
    So can I just throw it in the trash and go around finding the remaining stuff in my library and/or preferences folder? Is this the only way for us mac users to uninstall programs/apps?
    Please help, I need to free up some space.
    Thanks!
    - Spyrochick101

    Rave,
    Thanks for the reply.
    I have looked at those permissions and either set them or confirmed to myself that they were correct at least 4 times in this crusade so far.
    I did find a folder named SLStore_v1 which appears to be empty. Anything there? Should the 2 folders where permissions were set have contents?
    I am, currently, re-downloading PSCC. It is going very slowly. I'll see what happens when that is complete or has failed as it has times in the past.
    Does the downloading need to happen when I have invoked the Root User? Or, is it the running and set up that's important there?

  • Help with uninstalling Java in Mavericks

    Hi All,  I am running OS X 10.9.1 on a Macbook Air.  I cannot seem to figure out how to uninstall Java.  It is running as a process, yet whenver I kill it, it restarts.  I would like to completely delete it but can't seem to figure out how.  There is no Java control panel or preference pane in system utilities.
    Here's what I've tried:
    1. Following the instructions at http://www.java.com/en/download/help/mac_uninstall_java.xml and moving JavaAppletPlugin.plugin to the trash and restarting, Java is still running according to Activity Monitor.
    2. Installing Java 7 again - still no control panel or preference pane in system utilities
    3. Searching library for everything java related and throwing it in the trash, restarting, still no luck.
    I'm pretty much out of ideas.   It's using a fair amount of CPU time and since I'm not running any apps that need it, I want it gone.
    Thanks in advance!

    I had an attempt but had some problems. I decided to use JBuilder's Design function and get to display my open --> file menu bar. The code is implemented but the bar doesn't show up.
    If I do it my way by using the following code it manages to work:
    // Menu Bar
    MenuBar mbar = new MenuBar();
    setMenuBar(mbar);
    Menu file = new Menu("File");
    MenuItem item1, item2, item3;
    file.add(item1 = new MenuItem("New"));
    file.add(item2 = new MenuItem("Open"));
    file.add(item3 = new MenuItem("Close"));
    mbar.add(file);
    Any reason why? Sorry for the n00b questions.

  • Help with uninstalling InDesign CS2

    A month ago, I installed CS4 over CS2.
    Then, InDesign CS4 did not work because of the conflict with AMD chip in my computer. So, uisng the original CS2 disk, all programs were uninstalled EXCEPT FOR INDESIGN CS2. The reason is that I wanted to use InDesign CS2 until the problem with CS4 is fixed.
    Today, after installing InDesign CS4 update (it was a sort of plug), InDesign became working just fine. So I want to remove InDesign CS2. The problem was that I was not able to remove InDesign CS2 by Add or Remove Programs or with the original CS2 disk.
    Please advise me how to uninstall InDesign CS2. In

  • Help with uninstalling Mountain Lion .. back to Lion

    A few weeks ago I installed ML and after further review, I really want to revert back to Lion instead.  Without going into great specifics, I just liked Lion much bettter.  I have tried to research such a task, but to no avail.  I am on an 2011 imac running 10.8.  I have a little experience (little being the operative word here), Macs .. but, please be gentle .. not enough to do this.
    How can I uninstall ML to eventually get myself back to Lion?
    Thanks so much!

    If your iMac came with 10.6 disks then you can hold c boot (backup your personal info first off the machine, not to TimeMachine!) and use that to erase the entire internal drive and install 10.6
    Then call Apple via phone and say you want to upgrade to 10.7 as they still sell it to those who can only upgrade to 10.7, however they might review your records and see your able too or already upgraded to 10.8 and deny you.
    Since 10.7 can only be installed via Apple download, they contol if you can go back or not.
    If you can find a 10.7 USB Thumb drive on eBay or Amazon, then you can use that (hold option key and boot from it) as it's a 2011 iMac.
    Howver again you need to make sure the boot drive is completely erased, there is a couple of hidden partitions that need to be erased so they are back to 10.7 state.
    Again don't use TimeMachine for restoring your data, it only works on 10.8 now that you have updated it. If you didn't connect your 10.7 TimeMachine then it's  still good to restore from, provided you erase the boot drive and install 10.7 first.

  • :::NEED HELP WITH UNINSTALL:::

    Hello Adobe CS experts!!
    Before I do anything, I thought I'd ask you guys...
    I currently have have 3 versions of Adobe CS on my computer. CS, CS3 and CS4...
    I'd like to uninstall the CS version but there is no uninstaller I can find.
    Does anyone know the proper method of manually uninstalling version CS?
    Also, When I do, will any of the files removed effect my latest version that I'm keeping on this computer?
    Thanks!

    For CS (not CS 3) just drag to the trash.

    Hoping for some help with a very frustrating issue!
    I have been syncing calendar and contacts on my iPhone 5 and Outlook 2007 using iCloud  2.1.3 (my PC is running Vista). All was well until the events I entered on the phone were showing up in Outlook, but not the other way around. I’ve tried the usual recommended steps: deselecting calendar and contacts in the iCloud control panel and then re-selecting, signing out of the panel and back in, and repairing the Outlook installation in control panel.  I even uninstalled iCloud on the PC and downloaded it again (same version). 
    The furthest I’ve gotten is step 2 (and once, step 3) of 7 while performing “Outlook Setup For iCloud.” At that point I get, “Your setup couldn’t be started because of an unexpected error.”  After the first attempt at all this, all my calendar events disappeared from Outlook, although they are still in iCloud calendar and on my phone.
    Sound familiar?  Any ideas on how to solve this iCloud/Outlook issue?  Thanks much in advance!
