How to do a removal & fresh install of CS6?

Before I just go to 'uninstall' & mess everything up I'd like to know if I have to deactivate, or be concerned with my older versions that I've upgraded from.

Hi [email protected],
You can deactivate the CS6 products from Help menu and then uninstall them.

  • How do I do a fresh install of Creative Cloud?

    Hello all,
    Here's my issue... Creative Cloud App Manager says that some apps are installed when they're not, some apps aren't installed when in fact they are, and some apps that used to work, now simply crash upon trying to open them. It's a huge mess.
    Also, programs like InDesign and Illustrator, although they are installed, App Manager says they're not; their Uninstall Alias' in the app folder says the link is broken/missing.
    I would like to just do a fresh install of all my Creative Cloud stuff, since it sounds like something went horrible awry during install.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    I am having a similar problem (on a Mac) of Application Manager not detecting the currently installed Dreamweaver CS6 and Creative Cloud Connection apps. I also noticed that with my current installation of Dreamweaver, there are certain features (e.g. Extension manager) which say "Unavailable. please reinstall Dreamweaver":
    If I click "Install" for Dreamweaver, it fails and tells me "Download error. Press Retry to try again or contact customer support. (307)".
    I deactivated Dreamweaver then attempted to uninstal it, but the Uninstaller alias found in Applications > Dreamweaver folder is broken.
    Also, the only thing in Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers is a broken alias for "Uninstall Adobe Creative Cloud Connection". 
    I downloaded the Adobe Cleaner Tool and selected "Clean All", but this did not remove the installed files. Now the cleaner tool doesn't even detect a session to delete.
    How do I proceed to do a clean install of Creative Cloud and CS6? I just really want my Application Manager to be able to manage all the installations and updates without issue.
    Thanks

  • How do I do a fresh install of Mountain Lion on a SSD?

    Hey guys, tried searching on the forums for this but I couldn't find it. Doesn't help that my internet connection has having severe issues today either!
    I just bought myself a new Macbook Pro a couple of days ago and finally have the time to set it up today. It currently has the normaly 500gb hard drive in there. Now I have an SSD in my old Macbook Pro, which I will be formatting and placing into the new MBP. How would I then go about doing a fresh install of Mountain Lion without the Mountain Lion setup file? I know I can purchase it on the App store, but I shouldn't have to do that as my new MBP is of course Mountain Lion.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks guys.

    If it wasn't a Mac computer that originally came with either Lion or Mt Lion Pre-Installed by Apple when new you would not be able to connect to the Online Internet Recovery system. It is a Feature of the Mac EFI Firmware system. And it will only install whichever version of the Download only version of OS X that originally came on that system.
    My MBP came with Lion Preinstalled. Even if I have Mt Lion installed on the hard drive the Online Internet Recovery system would always point my MBP to the Lion download as that was the original version of OS X that came on my Mac.
    No real authentication needed. Since your Mac came with Mt Lion no matter what newer versionof OS X you ever install the OIRS will always point you to Mt Lion and ONLY Mt Lion.
    It is something different, but not completely different, from the built in Recovery HD partition on the internal drive.
    No worries as during the install of MT Lion on your SSD the installer will Recreate the Mt Lion Recovery HD partition on your SSD.

  • How Do I Do A Fresh Install?

    As discussed on this thread I got my hard drive replaced by Apple recently and have been having problems with Logic being slow ever since.
    On that thread, a couple of people mentioned that it could be because I did a Time Machine restore and that it might be better for me to do a fresh install of OS and Logic and then copy any personal data over.
    Sorry to sound dumb, but could someone tell me how to do this?

    To make a fresh install:
    1. Make a backup of your data.
    2. Hold Command and R keys while your computer is starting, and open Disk Utility.
    3. Choose Macintosh HD in the sidebar, go to Erase tab and erase the disk.
    4. Close Disk Utility and reinstall OS X.
    After reinstalling OS X, install the applications as usual, so Logic Pro should work correctly. If you want more information about OS X Recovery > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718

  • HT1926 I have tried to delete the latest itunes and get back to 10.7. Now I have nothing in my library. How do I get the freshly installed itunes 10.7 to sync with the itunes STORE, and get me computers library back?

    I just tried to delete the new itunes (Hate it & could figure out how to sync iphone any more), and I reverted back to itunes 10.7 64-bit. When I tried to use itunes, it couldnt read the library because it had been created by the newer version (why it didn't get deleted when I removed itunes I do not know), so I deleted a few itune library files that I found still on my computer. Now I have the 10.7, but nothing in it... no library items. How do it get the itunes to sync with the itunes store

    This is what you should have done...
    To roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the installer from here, uninstall iTunes and suppporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

  • How do I manually remove an installed program (possible fishing Virus)?

    So I downloaded an app from this site but I can't seem to find it, is it possible that I've contracted a phishing virus, if so what are the steps i should take to remove it?
    http://mac.softpedia.com/progViewOpinions/Cheat-Engine-91967,.html

    What's that thing, Cheat Engine 5.6.1 for Mac?
    Did you just download it or did you actually install the package?
    The package installer looks like this when it opens:
    The spelling errors alone are sort of entertaining.
    Clicking Read License results in no action. Since I am unwilling to consent to something I cannot read, I hit Disagree and that was that.
    The next step will ask for your user name and password, after which it will do... what? Who knows, but no right-minded person should acquiesce to unknown modifications of a computer, unless it's already running Windows, in which case it's already messed up and this sort of behaviour is normal.
    If you didn't actually install it, just forget you ever saw this thing and get on with your life. No harm done.

  • Broken superdrive, how do i get a fresh install

    So i have a late 2006 black macbook. It came with tiger, but i bought the leopard upgrade dvd when it came out and installed that. Someone stepped on it and now the superdrive doesn't work. Not that big of a deal to get fixed since i never used it. I just bought a new mbp so i want to get a clean install of my old macbook so i can give it to my brother. the laptop just isn't as fast as it used to be so i want to start from scratch. I have both the original tiger dvd and leopard upgrade dvd, but how can i do this without a dvd drive? from what I've read, i can connect my new mbp to my old mb in firewire target disk mode, put the tiger disk in and boot the mb from there. then put the leopard in and do the same thing? does that make sense? is there an easier way?

    Hi,
    my macbook will seem to be an external disk drive on my macbook pro, and from there i can erase the hard drive using disk utility. then i'll put the tiger disk into the mbp and install it on the "external disk drive"?
    If you boot the MB into target disk mode and connect it, it would indeed appear as an external drive as seen from the new MBP, but you then would be asking the MBP to boot and run a Tiger install DVD that is not only machine-specific for a different Mac, but also contains an earlier OS version than the version that the MBP shipped with. I'd be surprised if that worked.
    Instead, I would do it "the other way", booting the MBP into target disk mode, borrowing only its DVD drive, and running the install from the MB as host. That way the MB boots and runs the same Tiger disk that it came with. To do this, shut down the MB, insert the Tiger DVD into the MBP, and restart the MBP while holding down the T key, booting it into TDM. Connect it to the MB and then start the MB while holding down the Option key. This should boot the MB into the startup manager, and hopefully you will see the Tiger OS X install DVD as one of the startup choices. Select that, and proceed with the Tiger installation. Be sure you pick the correct "Macintosh HD" (the MB's HD, not the MBP's!) for the erase and install.
    If this works, you should be able to do the same thing with the Leopard Upgrade DVD.

  • Can I do a fresh install of cs6 on Yosemite?

    Does anyone know if I can install a new copy of Premiere Pro cs6 on Yosemite and use the program? I would hate to spend hundreds on this program and find that it will no longer be compatible with OS X.

    "BTW, you should NEVER use the Finder to copy items from TimeMachine. Use the TimeMachine application to recover files and applications."
    I don't know how to use the finder to copy files.  I am assuming I will be propted to use the TimeMachine application as a part of the clean install from snow leopard ( I am not upgrading to lion as of yet...).  I will have my mac os x disk, time machine partition on a seperate external hard drive, BlacX 2.5/3.5 HDD usb docking station and new blank crucial m4 ssd at my avail.  save for my wits...

  • How to run downloaded drivers on Fresh Install of Labview 6.1 on a Mac G4 OS 9

    I have just completed a fresh install of Labview 6.1 on an Macintosh G4 running OS9. I can run it and it seems to work just fine. I downloaded some drivers for an oscilloscope (HP 546XX) to run with an HP 54603b. When I installed, I went to open the 'Get Started.VI' I get a freeze and have to force quit out of labview. I am not sure how to resolve this. I am pretty sure that it is independent of the device, since I can open the vi's at least on another computer with no hardware attached. So I guess to boil my situation down. I have 2 questions:
    -How do I get a fresh install on a mac G4 OS 9 to run downloaded drivers from the internet
    -How do I ensure that I have the hardware configured on
    a macintosh to run properly.
    I really have little experience with macs so I am not really sure what my options are or what could be the problem so any assistance would be much appreciated.

    Hmmm. I wonder if NI-VISA isn't installed correctly on this machine.
    When LabVIEW loads a VI that uses a VISA name control on the front panel, it queries VISA for the installed devices. Sometimes this takes a few seconds, but maybe in your case, something has been corrupted and it's hanging.
    To try to narrow this down, first run the separate program "VISAConfig". This should list your devices. If this works, this means it's pretty likely that VISA is installed correctly.
    Next, run LabVIEW. On an empty front panel, select the "Controls->I/O->VISA Resource Name" and place it on the front panel. When you click on the arrow on this control, you should see a list of your devices. If this works, then that indicates that LabVIEW is successfully talking
    to the VISA software.
    If both of those succeeded, then we have to take a closer look at this particular instrument driver. Can you drop other VIs (say, Initialize or Close) without hanging?
    If either of the first two steps fail, I'd suggest that you reinstall the VISA software. You may want to try the latest version of NI-VISA (from ni.com), but first confirm that it supports LabVIEW 6.1.
    I hope this helps.

  • How to do a fresh install of tiger on g4 ibook

    Hi everyone,
    I am wondering how I can do a fresh install of mac os tiger on my ibook with the cds that came with it. I am selling it and want to make it like its getting turned on for the first time and the person has to register and all that good stuff.
    Thanks.

    So pretty much all I need to do is just insert the cds and follow the directions?
    If you are referring to reinstalling, the answer is yes.
    Should i zero my startup disk also or should zeroing the harddrive be enough?
    The iBook's current startup disk IS the hard drive. When you boot from the install disc (CD/DVD) you will zero the hard drive in the iBook.

  • How to fresh install Xcelsius 2008 SP4 on Win7/Office2010

    How do I do a fresh install of Xcelsius 2008 and get up to SP4 if I am unable to do an install of Xcelsius 2008 on Win7/Office2010 in the first place?

    Hi Chris
    You can install Xcelsius 2008 Service Pack 4 without having a previous version of Xcelsius 2008 installed because each Service Pack is a full install (or it can be used to upgrade from a previous Service Pack).
    So download and install SP4 which supports Office 2010 (32-bit) and Windows 7.

  • How to fresh-install W8.1 on a VM (on Linux) without OEM disks and having product key programmed in UEFI?

    I have an ASUS A55 that came with W8 preinstalled (OEM without disks), now upgraded to W8.1. My laptop was a present for me and came from Germany, so I do not have access to the original ASUS retailer (nor any other else, BTW, due to my present location).
    Due to my job I am now obliged to have Linux as my base OS, but I am allowed to keep one W8.1 running within VirtualBox (for instance, for when my daughter comes to visit me).
    How do I do a fresh install of W8 and keep my purchased license, given that I do not have the disks?
    Also, is there a way to access the product key programmed in the UEFI?
    Thanks
