How do I uninstall PSE6?

I have a problem in that I am unable, so far, to uninstall PSE 6.  I have recently bought PSE13, and I want to get rid of PSE6.
I have tried using the PSE6 disk and run the Uninstaller.  At the end of the process the message came up to tell me that PSE6 had been uninstalled. What I thought was strange was that the PSE6 icon was still at the bottom of the screen as if the program had not been uninstalled. I then researched the internet and tried looking at the Utilities part of the Hard Disk as I was advised somewhere but plainly in the uninstallation the PSE6 uninstaller had gone - the only uninstaller was there for PSE13.
The corollary of this is that it is not possible for me to make PSE13 my edit program via IPhoto.
All suggestions on how to resolve this problem from any genius will be very welcome.
The OS I am using is Mac OS X 10.10.2.  The serial numbers of the PSE disks are - PSE6 1057-0007-2501-7969-4498-6266 (bought about 2008): PSE13 1057-4603-3872-2189-0414-0745. 

Thank you Peru Bob.
The problem is that when I get to stage 2 Uninstall Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications, there is no indication of where PSE6 is in the Utilities.  I have already run the uninstaller assuming it would uninstall the program, and it would appear that it has uninstalled itself .  Should I reinstall PSE 6 back into the computer, then uninstall it all over again?  Basically how do i get to the point where I can follow these instructions 'Use the CC Cleaner tool..."
Best wishes

  • How do I uninstall Photoshop Elem. 6 free trial download that expired?

    I just purchased Photoshop Elements 8, installed it on my MAC running OS10.6+ and, so far, it appears to be OK (after doing some simple trial editing).
    But I want to remove a legacy TRIAL version of Photoshop Elements 6 and well as a CV3 and an early version of "help."  I never bought the trial version before it expired, thus it has been an unusable memory hog for over a year or so.
    I read several questions/comments regarding removing legacy Element versions.  One commentator (an employee) said you could find an uninstaller in the library adobe folder for 6.  So I followed his sequence and found the uninstaller for my new version, but not for Elements 6.  Nor did a spotlight search turn up anything located elsewhere for version 6.  Other users (with paid versions?) apparently found the uninstaller in the suggested location and were successful in deleting the program.   I'm not sure why my trial version is lacking the uninstaller, so how can I uninstall without doing the naughty thing and dropping old adobe files in the trash?
    It would be great if any removal suggestions would leave my installation of the new Elements 8 intact so I don't have to also uninstall and reinstall it!

    Thank you Jon99.  That was actually the route I previously took (through utilities, not library--sorry for my mistake).  When I got there I saw PSE 6 installer right next to my PSE 8 uninstaller.  I figured, logically, that if PS8 had an uninstaller, that PSE6 would also, and I certainly didn't want to install 6 again since it was already present.  NEVERTHELESS, I opened it and, as expected, I got a message that I could not proceed with setup so I closed it. Thus my original consternation.
    Your email motivated me to try again, thinking I must have overlooked something.  I again came to the same dead end, but I hesitated a moment before closing the installer, when, suddenly a new screen appeared telling me I had to quit a CV program I didn't know was open.  So I did as instructed and finally found the uninstall option.  It worked and better yet, my new Elements program is still intact.  I'm glad the new program has been improved so that those of us who are "logic-constrained" can easily find the uninstaller.  Perhaps others may benefit from my mistakes and your suggestion.

  • How do I uninstall photoshop elements 6 (windows) when there is not option in add-remove programs

    How do I uninstall photoshop elements 6 (windows) when there is not option in add-remove programs.  I have looked on my hard drive extensively for a library or utility folder that would have an uninstall program, nothing.  I want to install Elements 9, but have found out that Elements 9 does not remove Elements 6, so I want to remove elements 6 first.

    Strange that PSE6 does not show up via the control pane.
    I wouldn’t worry about uninstalling it. The two versions sit happily side by side and PSE6 takes up hardly any file space compared with PSE9.

  • HT4759 How to Completely Uninstall iCloud? Office 2007 Save As Crashes

    I can no longer use "Save As" in Office 2007 since I enabled ICloud.  Word and Excel Crash. And Outlook does not seem to be about to send more than one email at a time.  I have to select the Send/Receive button right after I create a new email.  If I wait and create a second email, the first email in the outbox changes status from ready to send to cannot send.  And even if I open it and try to send it, it will not send.  I have to re-create it. 
    I want to know how to thoroughly uninstall ICloud.  Other posters on Microsoft (Girish M) and Apple (SkinnyNick) have indicated that the problem is related to ICloud.  And I can confirm that I started having problems right after enabling ICloud.  Here are the references:
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2007-excel/excel-2007-clo sing-unexpectedly-when-trying-to/69705682-06ca-4e39-b17e-56d4bacc3452
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4607859?start=0&tstart=0
    I spent a lot of time trying to trouble shoot this problem.  I ran the Office install to repair.  This did not work.  I uninstalled all Office 2007 related products.  I then manually purged all directories relating to office including the Common Shared Directories.  Then, I ran Microsoft's FixIt to uninstall Office to make sure everything was uninstalled.  Then, I reinstalled Office 2007 and it still failed.  I thought about installing Office 2010, but the second post (above SkinnyNick) indicates that this would not work.
    So, I am looking for a way to uninstall iCloud including that parts that is causing this problem.  Now, the second post (above) from
    SkinnyNick) says that he tried to uninstall iCloud but this did not fix the problem.  He finally reconfigured iCloud by de-selecting Outlook, but I would rather completely remove iCloud. 
    Can anyone provide instructions on how to completely remove iCloud so that my Office 2007 products will function again using Save As?
    Thanks,
    Rob

    As a Windows Application Developer who has more than 28 years of professional development experience, I can tell you that anything is possible in terms of how developers implement their applications. I have seen just about everything under the sun, and it would not surprise me if Apple's iCloud not only places files in key Windows directories, but it may use configuration information in a file as opposed to the Window Registry to control how their application behaves. And this would prevent “System Restore" from fixing the problem. Configuration information can be stored in many places. And, even if you do use the Windows Registry to control how your application works, you can key off of new files (like a user profile file) to control how your application to behaves. Csound1, you have been very generous with your time, and I am very grateful for your advice. Thank you.

  • How do I uninstall Edge Reflow CC?

    I recently downloaded the app because I was curious about using it. Now I'm having issues on my print files (end of file) and the stability of Photoshop CC when I do things like adding layer masks and vector masks. When I look at the dump for output it's indicating that I'm using an unsupported layer type due to Reflow.
    How can I uninstall Edge Reflow CC? I have an uninstaller for Edge Animate CC, but not one for Edge Reflow CC.
    Applications > Utilities > Adobe Installers
    Mac OS X 10.8.5
    Thanks for any (helpful) responses in advance.

    I said dump, I meant log. I didn't get a screenshot of the message. It said something to the effect of Generator had and error and close Photoshop. When I tried to save my files I received unexpected end of file encountered upon reopening the files upon restarting Photoshop. The first time I received a message was on creation of a layer mask from a vector path. The second time was in a different file, I was converting the vector path to a vector mask. Luckily I saved the original file. It's just a jpg. I was eventually able to edit the file (3 attempts).

  • How do I uninstall Adobe Bridge CC on one computer so that it can be installed on another computer?

    How do I uninstall Adobe Bridge CC on one computer so that it can be installed on a new computer?

    You can install CC on two computers and use them both (even different OS if needed)
    You can also sign out with your Adobe Creative Cloud application on one computer and log in on another computer, the max of active systems is 2 but it should be possible to have them on multiple systems with signing in and out.

  • How do I uninstall an add on file from the Seamonkey browser?

    HOW DO I UNINSTALL AN ADD ON FILE FROM MY SEAMONKEY BROWSER?
    Mozilla needs to make their products more user friendly. There is a multitude of people out there
    who are "NOT" very computer literate. Older people like myself, for example, who are old
    school, have a difficult time being dragged kicking and screaming into the electronic generation.
    My grandchildren are better at this kind of stuff than I am; yet we really don't have much choice
    but to try and make the transition, because I have found that there are a lot of types of business
    that you cannot get done unless you are willing to do it with a computer, going online.
    My problem is not with Firefox (I don't use it because it is too slow) , because I use the Seamonkey browser. The problem I now have is that when I try to download some software, I get a message that says I must first uninstall a certain “add on” file, (npfdm.dll.), a "Free Download Manager" file. When I get the list of add ons through the “help” drop down menu, there is “NO” link or any way I can see that will allow me to uninstall this file from the add on list. Therefore, Seamonkey becomes useless to me. Someone please help me with this. Thank you.

  • How do I uninstall Snow Leopard Server, so that I can revert back to Snow Leopard?

    I was experimenting with the Snow Leopard Server DVD on my MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard.  I started the installation process, expecting that it would not install on the Startup Disk, as I had not booted from the DVD. 
    To my surprise it installed!
    How do I "uninstall" or revert back to Snow Leopard, without have to take such drastic steps that I would lose all of my Snow Leopard System folder contents (such as doing a wipe and starting over with a fresh Snow Leopard install)? Thank you.

    I assume by "back up your data" you mean a Time Machine backup?
    Preferably, yes.
    I have a BootCamp partition to run Windows; does Time Machine back that up, too?
    No, but it won't be affected unless something goes wrong. You still need to back it up, of course, just like all other data.

    How do I uninstall snow leopard and re-install OSX leopard?

    Sorry to hear that, Snow Leopard runs as fast or faster than either Tiger and Leopard did on my Jan 2006 Early Intel iMac on 2GB of RAM?
    Before you blame Snow Leopard, run the Extended Apple Hardware Test and check the SMART status of your Hard Drive to make sure that you do not have another problem.

    how do i uninstall iphoto? it was preinstalled on my macbook pro when I bought it used and I can only update with the previous owners password.

    Do you have the current MacOS X version 10.10.2?
    Then you can simply move iPhoto from the Applications folder to the Trash,
    sign into the App Store with your own AppleID
    reload the "Featured" main page of the AppStore with ⌘R,
    then download iPhoto with your own AppleID.
    Make a backup of your iPhoto Library, before your launch the new iPhoto the first time,
    If your current system is not Yosemite, you can only buy a boxed iLife 11 version of iPhoto to install it independent of the previous owner.
