How to Uninstall / Reinstall Bridge as part of CS3 Master Collection?

Bridge is not in my Add/Remove programs. It is not listed as an item that I can uninstall or reinstall in the Master Collection setup program. I want to reinstall Bridge. It is pretty much unusable on my XP64 system since the last upgrade. But how can I reinstall it?

Well, Adobe may not want to call it a separate program, but from most litmus tests that I can think of, Bridge sure looks and acts like separate program.
My Bridge would start up no problem. And I had been changing the settings to find anything that might work. But what I had not done, until last night, was to go into the Camera RAW Preferences and change anything. I did this last night. I changed the location of the cache here and changed its size from 1GB to 8GB. This has appeared to have helped quite a bit. Bridge is still a tad sluggish (on a very fast machine with 8 logical processors and 8GB or ram), but it is usable again.
So one follow-up question is what is the difference between the "camera RAW Preferences" cache and the "Preferences" Cache?
My next follow-up question is why does Bridge say that it is finished loading thumbnails (via progress bar) for a particular folder only to restart later or on subsequent returns to the folder even after no changes have been made? This drives me crazy. Just when you think that its finished and you can have your CPU's back, it starts up again and hogs your processing power.

How do I reinstall missing Adobe Media Encoder CS3 ?

I need some help here ??
When attempting to encode on Vista from Premiere 3.2 the Adobe Media Encode (AME) just goes off and hangs.
Looked for the error log which lives at
C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Media Encoder\4.0\AMEEncodingErrorLog.txt
Make sure you have view hidden files turned on to look for this file..
Ok the folder "Adobe Media Encoder" is not on my machine... It looks like the installation is FUBAR.
I check CS3 Master Collection distribution - I don't see a module for Adobe Media Encoder to reinstall.
So my question is . How do I reinstall the "Adobe Media Encoder" for the CS3 collection ?
Anybody have a clue as how to do this ?
How do I reinstall the Adobe Media Encoder CS3 ?

Mr Hunt...
I my view you're a wizzard with statute more than Merlin...
Here's what I found. Last time I shut down ProPre I was on a dual monitor.
I tossed my laptop in the car went to 2nd location.
Re-configured laptop for single monitor mode.
Upon starting up ProPre hammered encoding and the resulting screen opened ...... which I could not see.
PrePro DOES NOT sense hardware.... Dhaaaaaaaaa
Its stays stuck in dual monitor mode !!!!!
You need a second monitor to unstick it !!!!!
I was unable to set it back to single mode without the 2nd monitor !!!
Yahhoooo !!!! Its working again !!!!!
Dhaaaaaaa

How do you install the content for CS3 master collection?

I have installed Adobe CS3 Master Collection on my Mac.
All the software is loaded and ready to go. There is an extra
disc that says "content." When I pop it in I'm not prompted to
do anything. How do I get the "content" to load up? Do I drag
all of the items onto my boot drive? If so, which folder? Documents?

The content disk is just a collection of extra stuff for you to peruse. There's a whole bunch of free PostScript OpenType fonts, documentation for all of the applications in PDF format, some help files (like migrating from Go Live to Dreamweaver). Just open the disk and look though it.

How to uninstall update Bridge

Hi there,
How do I uninstall *just* an update on my mac, not the whole program?
I accidentally updated my Bridge CS6, but it is updated in the wrong language, so I would like to deinstall this latest update. How do I proceed?
Thanks

Donouwens Bridge CS6 needs to be installed as part of an application which includes Bridge. I would recommend removing and reinstalling Photoshop CS6 to reinstall Bridge CS6. Please make sure to utilize the uninstaller located in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder.

How to uninstall/reinstall CC

I installed CC for my wife and need to move the root install to another drive on our computer (originally installed to C, need to move to E). She has a license for CC through work. What is the recommended manner of uninstalling and reinstalling CC to another drive while also maintaining all settings and not voiding any licensing key? (back story, the C drive is a 256 GB solid state drive, and we're running out of space on it).
Thanks.

You need to deactivate the CC, uninstall & then move the CC to another drive & activate.

How do I manually uninstall CS3 Master Collection?

I started having problems with Encore, then Premier Pro. The programs have been functioning OK for some years, but started to fail for some reason some months ago. When I run the Installation program to uninstall it starts off OK showing a progress bar, but after some time it fails to progress and stops. I then tried the CS Cleaner Tool, but that increased the problems, so now I can not launch the installer program at all, and I get a notification that my license is no longer valid. Seems I will need to manually uninstall all CS3 programs (Master Collection).
I have a MacPro, OSX ver. 10.5.8 (Leopard), as I´ve been told that never versions off the operating system do not function well with the CS3. (I also own ver 10.6). I´ve long time searched the internet for a solution without beein able to solve this, so grateful for any help

I cannot say I have conclusive help to offer. At one point in time a couple years back CS3 started to go flaky on me and eventually led to prohibiting me from accessing any of the products that came with it, claiming my license was not valid.
Below are some notes I jotted down that served to help me... I cannot say if they will be a help to you.
One thing that I found troubling was that there was mention of no support from Adobe for CS3 any longer at various points along the line while trying to find a solution - hard to accept that a failing license would be ignored. I think the last bit of info I show below relates to having found someone at Adobe who was willing to try to help despite that... but I managed to fix things with the first bit of info I list before that person got back to me.

Cannot uninstall/re-install CS3 master collection suite

Hi,
I’m having problems getting through this:
I am running Windows 7
I have installed Adobe CS3 Mater Collection Suite in trial version. The programs were working ok but
After some days starting any of the programs gives this error:
"You cannot use this product at this time. You must repair the problem by uninstalling and reinstalling this product or contacting your IT administrator or Adobe customer support for help."
I have tried to uninstall and re-install the suite without success: for install the setup would start but then just exits without any error or warning. For uninstalling in Control Panel it seems to load something but nothing comes up. For any other program I try to uninstall the process works without problems.
I have followed Adobe article http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/402/kb402048.html
I have tried to run the Adobe CS5 Cleaner Tool for Windows but it finds no Adobe products installed
I haven’t used MSICUU2.exe as it has been discontinued from Microsoft
I have tried to uninstall using Windows in Safe Mode but no luck, the uninstall does not start.
I have tried to create a new user with admin rights to uninstall the Suite but no luck.
thanks,
Mic

How can I re-install Premiere Pro of the Master Collection?

I have lost the ability to load Premiere Pro CS5 of the Master Collection. How do I re-install?

You need to reinstall the entire Master Collection, probably. You can try a repair, but I've found that with the suites you typically have to do the whole thing. Search for and download the Adobe Clean Script Utility, uninstall CS5, run the utility, reboot, run the utility again, reboot again, run it a third time, reboot again, then reinstall...

How long i am allowed to use Adobe CS6 Master collection ( Students and Teachers edition ) ?

I planned to buy Adobe CS6 Master collection ( Students and Teachers Version ) but i have a some confusions.
1) If i bought the software with an adobe reseller ( a boxed product of adobe master collection CS6 - students and teachers edition ) and obtained a serial number with it, will i be able to use the software for more than one year or three years once it is activated ?

There is no serial number in retail boxes of S&T, just a verification code and that needs to be properly registered to obtain a serial number - now. After that you can reinstall and reactivate the stuff until the day the Adobe servers fall apart or run out of electricity or Adobe changes their policies.

Part Numbers for Master Collection CS4

Hi there,
I'm really sorry for asking what is a very basic question, however I was wondering if anyone knows the Adobe part number for the UK full retail Adobe Master Collection CS4? I'm thinking about it second hand however I want to make sure that the software is legitimate and licensed for use in this country. I have Googled this but, suprisingly, didn't find any results which I'd consider to be a bit odd.
The part number of the product I'm considering buying is: 65025303
Thanks for any guidance you can offer!
Regards,
Stu.

Thanks for the information - I was quite surprised that the part numbers weren't available online anywhere. I contacted the seller who informed me the software was purchased in the UK, however the box said it was made in the US and I understand the UK releases say they're made in Ireland. The seller didn't confirm where the item was purchased from, so I decided against it. There was definitly something a little suspicious about the deal.

Adobe After Effects CS6 - how to uninstall/reinstall or transfer license to a new computer

My old computer has crashed, and so I built a new one recently. I have been installing all the applications for it, downloading files, so on and so forth. I recently insterted one of the hardrives from my old computer, and was able to see the files I had from my old computer. All of my adobe applications are on there, and I can see them, however; I cannot use them, which is okay, since most of them were free applications that I could download from the website. But Adobe After Effects CS6, which is the application I really need, does not open it; instead, it reads: "Configuration Error: Please uninstall and reinstall the product. Error: 16". I bought the CD for After Effects last summer, but I cannot find it anywhere. I heard you don't need the CD to transfer the license to a new computer, but I can't figure out how to do this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, since after building my computer, I have absolutely no funds nor interest to buy another After Effects CD.
Thanks,
John W. King

How do I reinstall Bridge CS4?

I was cleaning up my hard drive and deleted a large Bridge archive/temp file, among other things. In doing so I seem to have broken Bridge CS4, though Bridge CS3 still works.
Our work computers are running CS3 for the most part, though I upgraded just Flash to CS4, which is where Bridge CS4 came from. I've been looking for the Flash installer but can't find it. Is there a way to download and install just Bridge by itself?

Deleting a temp file should not have any effect on program. In case you deleted something more that broke the system you need to unistall CS4 and reinstall. The save bet is to use Adobe CleanSweep for CS4 before install.
Bridge is not a seperate program so can not be installed seperately.
