How to Uninstall the Trial Version of CS4 InDesign, clean?

I need to get back to CS2 InDesign and I don't want to have any issues with my other Adobe products in the meantime, until I purchase the upgrade to CS4 later. I know that I use the installer program. But do I check the 'Remove Application Preferences"?

Last night I uninstalled Creative Suite Premium without removing prefs, and then installed the master collection. I won't say it was 100% smooth, but as far as I can tell that was an anomaly due to my system configuration, and nothing whatever to do with my prefs. It was really nice to see ID and Photoshop loading with all the custom stuff from the past year.

  • How to uninstall a trial version of Adobe Pre Elements 11 if I already bought one at the App Store?

    I installed a trial version of Adb Pre Elements 11, then bought the same app at the AppStore. I want to uninstall the trial version without affecting the one purchased. Please, what's the procedure?

    Sapriil
    Here is my take on your situation.
    If you have the Premiere Elements 11 Mac tryout on your computer and it was downloaded from Adobe, you do not have the same program from the Mac Store under the name Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Editor (Mac Only). This Mac Store version of the program comes without the Elements Organizer 11.
    So, I would review the wisdom of plugging a Mac Store purchased serial number into your Adobe tryout under the circumstances. I am not on firm ground here. But, if it is I suspect and you want what you purchased, then consider uninstalling the Adobe tryout and installing what you purchased from the Mac Store with the serial number that the Mac Store gives you.
    I would ask Steve Grisetti to double check on this point before you proceed with the computer setup.
    Did you realize that the Elements Organizer was not a part of the Mac Store version?
    More later.
    Thanks for the follow up.

  • How can i uninstall the trial version of illustrator off my computer (mac)?

    I'd like to be able to uninstall the trial version of illustrator off of my mac, so that i can redownload it and actually try it, as i didn't get a chance to trial it the first time!
    Help Please!!

    cara,
    Unfortunately, you can only download a trial version once, no matter whether you used it much, little, or not at all. It only puts the application at your disposal with no tracing of your possible use.
    Back in January or thereabouts, a fresh start was made so you could download a second trial, but no trial since then is repeatable.

  • How to activate the trial version of lightroom 3

    Hello,
    I am new here and need some help.
    I have downloaded the trial version of lightroom 3 in my home windows computer and like it very much. I have then proceeded to purchase a box copy which will only arrive after two weeks. However i do not plan to install it on my home computer but my new imac computer at my office where i will do all my photo editing.
    My problem is i cannot wait for two weeks for the product to arrive. Can i download another trial version for my new imac in my office and when the box product comes can i just use the serial number and activate the trial version or do i have to uninstall the trial version and reinstall again. According to my seller she says that i cant do this because i need to reinstall the box product again which sounds weird to me.
    My other question is the earlier trial version that i installed in my home computer, i dont plan to use it anymore, so can i just ignore it?
    Thanks in advance.

    Importing photos puts information for each one into the LR catalog, which is just a database that LR knows how to read and write.  Reopening the catalog with a new install of LR would tell LR where each of those photos is, and what adjustments you'd made.  You don't have to reimport as long as you reopen the same catalog file with the new install.  You could try this on Windows:  uninstall-reinstall-reopen, and see how it works to get comfortable with it.   You only have to reimport if you lose your catalog, and have to start a new one.  If you write the metadata to files, either automatically via a preference, or manually via the Metadata menu item and grid mode, then you can even have your adjustments intact if you have to reimport, but you'll lose your history and other things that are only in the catalog and not in the XMP sidecar files.  These sidecar files is probably the only way to transfer edits from the PC version to the Mac version of LR which you probably hadn't considered.  At least I don't think you can copy the LR catalog file from a PC and open it on a Mac.
    If the LR trial expires before you have a serial number then you can't use it, but once you do enter in the serial number, you can pick up where you left off. 
    Lightroom isn't activated like Photoshop where there is a Adobe-server record of each computer and serial number.  LR is just either an unregistered-trial, an expired-trial or registered.  LR is smart enough to understand if you've installed it on the computer, before, so you can't extend a trial by uninstalling and re-installing w/o reformatting your HD and reinstalling the OS, or at least I think that is enough.

    Hello,
    Apologies for that!  Currently, Adobe is shut down for the holidays which is why you're seeing a delay. Adobe will resume work again on January 2nd.
    If you can private message me your contact information, I can contact our sales team to make sure they are aware of your request.

  • How long is the trial version of Lightroom 4 good?

    How long is the trial version of Lightroom 4 good?

    Like any trial - it will run for 30 days and you should be prominently notified about it on the trial info screen.

  • Should I uninstall the trial version of Elements 10 before installing all of the discs I purchased?

    Should I uninstall the Trial Version of Elements 10 before installing all of the new discs that I purchased on line? I do not have anything to save on the Trial Version. I do not want to run two programs simultaneously.

    You do not need to uninstall.  You can choose to enter the serial number for the released product.

  • I had to uninstall the trial version of Premier Pro, now I can't download a new one/update anymore?

    Since the trial version was not working properly I tried to uninstall it via Adobe, which worked. But now it seems impossible to download a new trial version or get an update, since it was once installed on this PC. But normally I would have had 20 days of trial left, and would appreciate to use them somwhow. Is there anything I can do? It is a Window 8 PC.
    Thanks for help!!

    Run the cleaner tool and try again.

  • How long does the trial version last? What happens when it expires?

    I currently have a trial version of Photoshop CC. I do not know how long the version lasts, nor do I know what my options are when it expires. I would appreciate your answering these questions. I probably didn't read the fine print!
    Judy P

    Each time you open a trial version Adobe normally presents you with a countdown screen showing you precisely how many days of your trial are remaining with buttons asking you to sign up or buy the software.
    Do you see that screen when you launch the trial version?

  • G560: How to activate the trial version of Microsoft Office?? Phone Support a Disaster

    I bought my wife a Lenovo G3560 for Christmas.  In attempting to set up the computer, I was instructed to enter the product key from an enclosed card to activate the trial version of Microsoft Office.
    There was no card.
    On the first attempt to get phone help from Lenovo, I couldn't seem to get the person on the phone to understand I was trying to activate a trial version of Office. 
    On the second attempt, my son (who is a bit more computer-savvy than I), phoned, and was told there is no trial version, we have to purchase a key for the full version from Microsoft.
    On the third attempt, I requested a supervisor.  While I was on hold, I finally figured out that the information on the computer was wrong.  No card is needed -- the trial version opens after hitting Start, then "all programs" and then scrolling down to "Microsoft Office Starter."  Why this information was not provided is unclear.  Why clearly incorrect information was provided is utterly mysterious.
    By the way, the Lenovo spell checker does not recognize the word "Lenovo."
    This is my first day with a Lenovo product.  It does not auger well.
    Moderator edit: subject added to subject line for clarity

    Just as a suggestion - when your Office trial is up - check out www.openoffice.org 
    They have a free Office Suite that is reallly very decent.  Best of all it is FREE!

  • How can I uninstall the trial version of Lightroom 4.2?

    I cannot uninstall the program via Windows Vista's "Uninstall or Change a Program." When I try the Uninstall command, I get this message: "The system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation," then this message, "You do not have sufficient access to uninstall Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.2. Please contact your system administrator." When I try the Change command, a wizard appears with the options to either Repair the program or to Remove it. When I select the Remove option, I end up with messages similar to the above and a fatal error message (#1730, I think).
    I am the sole user of my machine and its administrator. Is there an alternate method for uninstalling the program (apart from deleting everything and cleaning up the Registry)?
    Thanks.

    In case someone is interested, I found a solution.
    1. Recall that when you extract the installation files from Lightroom_4_LS11.exe, you get a PDF file, Install Lightoom 4.exe, and a folder—Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4—that contains setup32.exe and setup64.exe. (I used Install Lightoom 4.exe to install the program because that seemed the obvious way of doing it.)
    2. Double-click one of the setup.exe. (In my case, I double-clicked setup32.exe.) A Wizard appears. This is the same Wizard that you get when you use the Change option through Control Panel > Programs & Features (which did not work, as mentioned in my original post).
    3. Select the Remove option. This time, it works. At least, it worked for me.

  • How to uninstall CS3 trial version after expired.

    I use a program that launches PhotoShop 7 to process pictures via MicroSoft Access. The program keeps trying to launch CS3 which is an expired trial version that I was doing some training on earlier this year. I had recently installed CS5 Extended Trial Version and then noticed that I could not use my program to launch Photoshop 7 to process my pictures so I uninstalled CS5 Extended from the Add/Remove Program list in the Control Panel.So now I'm having this problem of the Program trying to launch CS3.
    I then recieve an error message "You cannot use this product at this time. You must repair the problem by uninstalling and reinstalling this product or contact your IT Administrator or Adobe customer support for help."
    But, CS3 doesn't show in the Add/Remove Program list in the Control Panel.

    Have you tried the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool?
    Also, there are some utilities, that will survey your system for programs, that have been partially uninstalled, or are still installed, and clean up after them. I have used Clean Sweep in the past, when it was a part of Symantec's Norton SystemWorks, but I think that it is not affiliated with Norton anymore. Have not used it in many years/versions, so cannot comment. Others might have recs. on current utilities for cleaning up after an uninstall, or completely removing an installed program.
    Good luck,
