How do I reinstall Photoshop CS6 on OS Lion (Mac)

Being subscribed to Adobe Creative Cloud I finally decided to uninstall my redundant copies of CS
Since doing this, When I launch Photoshop CS6 I get the following dialog window:
"One or more files in the Adobe Application Support folder, necessary for running Photoshop, are missing.  Please run the Photoshop installer and re-install Photoshop."
Here is the problem.
I do not see any way to uninstall any of the CS6 programs other than of course teh CS6 individual program uninstallers. I would use that for Photoshop, however, because I uninstalled Adobe Acrobat X Pro (it was crashing each time a PDF was opened) using the uninstaller... I have not been able to reinstall Acrobat X - teh Adobe Ap mangaer tells me it is already installed.
I NEED photoshop to be available since I use it daily for work. If I uninstall it as I did Acrobat - there is no way to reinstall (since Adobe Ap Manger does not give an option for reinstall - only the grayed out "installed" indicator)
I have deactivated Photoshop CS6 - closed it, relaunched it and it seems to have reautheticated ... but that message to uninstall and reinstall continues at start up.
By the way - Photoshop works fine... it is just an annoying startup message. Regardless... it is an annoyance I would prefer not happen.
Anyone have any helpful answers to this uninstall reinstall dilema with Creative Cloud? Also, by the way - I do not have a working version of Acrobat anymore despite Adobe App Manager telling me it is installed - it does not allow me to download and launch a new version of Acrobat.

Thanks CollinVa !  I ended up in a chat support and found a resolution which i will post in the other Adobe forums in case others run into the same difficulty.
On the Mac, in the applications folder are CS6 apps downloaded from Creative Cloud, and inside each products folder is that products uninstaller. That is the uninstaller I used the first time to remove Acrobat X Pro.
After removal by that means, Acrobat Application Manager was still verifying that my removed app was still installed. There was no way to reinstall (Acrobat).
What I was told by the chat tech was to got to Applications > Utilities > Adobe Installers Which is from where he recomended I do all my uninstalls.
So, from there I clicked on Acrobat X Pro and followed the screen instructions.
When I then launched Adobe Application Manager, teh Install button next to Acrobat was active and I was able to reinstall Acrobat.
I followed suit with Photoshop CS6, removing it from the Applications > Utilities > Adobe Installers folder. Then launched AAM and the install next to Photoshop was available. I downloaded it and intalled ... everything is working fine.

  • How do I reinstall Photoshop CS4 on a new Mac?

    About three years ago, I bought Photoshop CS4 for my MacbookPro. I just replaced the computer as it was on its last legs, and I'd like to reinstall my Photoshop software. I have the disk, serial number, everything, but I can't just pop the disk in because the new Macs don't have a CD / DVD drive. Go figure.
    I'm trying to figure out how to do this through the Adobe website, but I'm not having any luck. Any suggestions?
    Thanks!!

    Okay, that makes me feel a little better. Thank you.
    I followed the Very Important Instructions and downloaded everything so it's on my computer, but when I go to open "Setup" it gives me a message that says that the application is from and unknown developer and cannot be opened. I'm going to try downloading it again because maybe I missed the cookie step, so I'll see if that changes anything.
    Edit: No, it's still saying it can't be opened because it's from an unidentified developer.. Any idea why that's happening?

  • How do I reinstall Photoshop CC

    How do I reinstall Photoshop CC?  I appear to have created a problem by installing Photoshop CC over Photoshop CS6 and then deleting Photoshop CS6.  When I open Photoshop CC i receive a message that there is program error.  The Creative Cloud Application Manager seems to think that everything is OK and won't let me reinstall Photoshop CC.
    I am using an iMac and have Mountain Lion OS installed.
    Thanks for any help.

    I am unable to reinstall Photoshop CS6 (I do have the serial number) on my Macbook Pro 10.9.5 (Mavericks os). and am getting the message "Installation on case-sensitive volumes is not supported.  Please choose a different volume for installation."  I am further told that "Adobe apps cannot be installed on case-sensitive drives, you need to Install the product onto an HFS+ or HFSJ non-case-sensitive drive."
    What I don't understand is this:  I originally bought and installed Photoshop CS6 back in March 2013, and it worked fine.  Yesterday my hard drive had to be replaced and my computer person salvaged as much of what was on it as he could, but now I have to reinstall Photoshop.  1) Why did it work before and it's not working now?  2) Is there anything I can do that does not involve reformatting the hard drive?

    It means what it says. The "computer person" formatted it wrongly/ unsuitably. it needs to be formatted again.

  • How Can you reinstall Photoshop Elements12 to a computer that its was there but loss it after installing windows 8.1

    How Can you reinstall Photoshop Elements12 to a computer that its was there but loss it after installing windows 8.1

    Reinstalling Mavericks depends on several factors:
    if you erased your recovery partition
    what OS originally came on your Mac.
    I'll assume you don't have a backup available that you made before your mishap,  because you didn't mention it.
    That's really the take home message here: have a backup!
    If you still have your recovery partition:
    boot into the recovery partition (command R at restart)
    use the recovery partition to reinstall Mavericks. see: OS X: About OS X Recovery
    if you do not still have your recovery partition, then it depends on whether your Mac originally came with installer disks or not.
    If it originally came with installer disks, you would boot from the installer disks, erase your HD, and then reinstall the OS that is on the installer disks, and then upgrade as necessary until you get to Mavericks.
    If your mac did not originally come with installer disks, but you managed to erase your recovery partition, then you can try to boot into internet recovery (option-command-R at restart), and use internet recovery to erase your HD and reinstall the OS that originally came with your computer, and then upgrade to Mavericks if you need to. See: Hands on with Mountain Lion's OS X Recovery and Internet Recovery | Macworld
             (the reference refers to ML but it applies just as well to Mavericks).

  • Reinstalling photoshop CS6 extended

    I have to reformat my hard drive and reinstall photoshop CS6. Will Adobe recognize that I am not just installing the program on another computer but that I am using my legal software and let me use the program?
    I hope I am making sense.

    If your computer isnt yet completly dead and you have the ability to boot up Photoshop you can deactivate it from the help menu giving you back one of your activations. That is assuming you can access your computer (which I realise you may not be able to do).
    Cheers

  • How long will the Photoshop CS6 Beta be active for?

    Hi
    I would like to know how long will the Photoshop CS6 Beta be active for. As a VFX Artist I will be testing CS6 in a production environment to improve workflow. Some of the features I want to be able to use won't happen for a few weeks yet as I'm awaiting content. I just basically would like to know that If I install CS6 now, will it expire in a few weeks or on 30 days? If it's very limited, I'd rather wait than have it expire on be before I can test it properly.
    Thanks.
    Mike.

    Please see FAQ post regarding beta duration
