How to Uninstall Version Cue CS4?

Although I have Version Cue CS4 switched off, I would like to remove it completely since I think my Mac is having startup issues and I want to remove any potential source I can. (Unfortuately CS4 has always been the greatest source of stability issues on my Mac so a good place to start since I haven't used Version Cue CS4 in years).
I noticed on this forum thread a Version Cue SDK start-up script but I don't have this one show in my Bridge prefs, presumably I don't have the SDK installed or I'm not updated,
I note PS CS4 has an uninstall alias in it's application folder, but the other apps in CS4 creative suit don't. It's kind of apauling that I've had to spend so long trawling the various Adobe help labaryniths to get such basic information.

You said you think you are having startup issues on your Mac. What are the startup issues you are experiencing?
One quick thing to check; go to System Preferences - Accounts - Login Items.
Are there any Adobe applications listed that are automatically run when your Mac first starts up?
If not, then it seems unlikely that VersionCue or any Adobe product is related to your Mac startup issues.
You should try to focus on the Mac startup issues first. While your CS4 stability issues can be frustrating, it is a good idea to do first things first.
Have you applied all updates for your version of OSX? Have you run Disk Utility to repair permissions and do a hard disk test?
Although just because Disk Utility says the disk is ok doesn't mean that much, but if it flags disk issues then you need to resolute them first.
You should probably back up your files before doing a lot of troubleshooting, just to be on the safe side.
Posting your Mac model, PPC or Intel, OSX version along with amount of RAM and hard drive space - BOTH Used and Unused space might point towards the issues you are experiencing.
Also, describe the startup issues and if it happens all the time or only part of the time.

Is Version Cue CS4 TOO SLOW TO USE??????

Is it just me or is the new CS4 versioncue workflow extremely slow?
After installing Version Cue CS4 on the same server that was running CS3 and trying to open an existing InDesign project (book with dozens of linked images), I realized that using VersionCue CS4 is so painfully slow compared to CS3 that it's unusable.
It seems that VC CS4 does not create local copies on the hard drive and instead, all traffic is sent over the relatively slow Ethernet connections. While this does help with synchronizing confusions, it makes working on the projects way too slow.
VC CS4 is running with 768MB on my server, so I don't think that is the problem.
Will someone respond to this post and let me know if (a) I'm probably doing something wrong and everything will be OK, or (b) if I can install CS4 and still use VC CS3 on the server?
thanks in advance!

Thanks for the response.. It seems a bit hit or miss on opening up my projects.
For example, if I click on a PDF file in Bridge, it takes upwards of a minute to launch Acrobat 9 and display the first page. If I open Acrobat 9 first, and then click on the PDF, it opens almost instantly.
Also, we have a job with a Microsoft PPT slideshow. When editing the slide show and saving back to the Version Cue 4 server (pressing save in the PowerPoint program), it takes upwards of a minute.
This is with 768MB allocated to the stand-alone server, and 1GB assigned to the Adobe Drive CS4 cache on the client computer.
Does anyone know how to get VC CS4 or Adobe Drive to operate faster?

Missing Version Cue CS4

Windows XP 32 bit
I have PS CS5 so I uninstalled PS CS4.
Now I can't right click on the desktop or a file nor can I delete a file. I get an Explorer.exe Fatal Application Exit window saying:
The specified module could not be found
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Version Cue CS4\Client\4.0.0\VersionCue.DLL
One solution I saw was to copy the DLL from Client\4.0.1 into Client\4.0.0
BUT
1. 4.0.1 file location doesn't have a VersionCue.DLL in it
2. There is no Client\4.0.0 folder to put it in even if it were there in 4.0.1.

It's possible Adobe is trying to install a Shell Extension.
There are a couple of good free tools available out there on the net to manage what Shell Extensions you allow to run.
My favorite, which allows you to view an overview of EVERYTHING that's starting on your computer and disable the things you don't want running is AutoRuns. It's freeware and available here:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902
I have Photoshop 6.0, CS4, and CS5 installed on my Windows 7 x64 workstation. The Adobe software I've personally disabled is shown in the following list. Note that I'm only interested in running Photoshop, not the entire creative suite, and without any Adobe web integration:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

X "AdobeDriveCS4_NP" "Adobe Drive CS4 Network" "Adobe Systems Incorporated" "c:\program files\common files\adobe\adobe drive cs4\adobedrivecs4_np.dll"
AutoRuns has a nice search feature to help you find all the Adobe entries... Click the binoculars, enter Adobe, then hit OK. Hit the F3 key to search for subsequent entries.
Basically, just uncheck the items you don't want running, taking care to ensure you understand what they are and why you might want them (this will take some net research). When you're done, exit and reboot.
Good luck ferreting out the piece that's not needed/wanted.

Connecting to Version Cue CS4 via Bridge?

This is the set up;
Windows 2008 Server: Running Version Cue CS4, no other software related to adobe products is installed, other than Version Cue, and any assets necessary for Version Cue to run.
Client Work Stations running Windows 7 Ultimate, with Photoshop CS4 and After Effects CS4 Installed.
When the clients open their bridge applications there is no visible way for them to connect to the bridge, located on the server, which is on the same network via the same router.
If you run Version Cue directly off of the same system you're trying to connect to it on, it shows up on it's own. How do you connect to a remove Version Cue CS4 server via bridge? Where is the option to even add it?
I assume this would be similar to the default set up any work group would use when using these two tools together. Why isn't there an option to browse for a VC server and put in it's IP or something. They're on the same network, so why can't we just see it and 'just' add it.

Jasker - Thanks you for trying to help, but it didn't work. I followed your directions. Then I attempted to restart the Version Cue server and a Safari browser opened and pointed to http://localhost:3703/ with the message "Safari cant connect to the server.
Safari cant open the page http://localhost:3703/ because it could not connect to the server localhost."
I just want it to start up again so I can properly retrieve all of our projects! Even if I can get it back up, I don't think I will use Version Cue the way we used to, now that I know how unreliable it can be.
Can anyone at least offer advice on how to salvage shared projects (created and maintained by 2 different users) from the Version Cue server when it's offline?

I get this message: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Version Cue CS4/Client/4.0.0/VersionCue

Suddenly get this message and Photoshop won't function
Fatal error missing component

Onv CS4 is old but it was working. I bought it online legitimately.
I don't think I have the discs
How can I reinstall the software at no additional cost?

Fatal error message: version cue CS4 not found

Just migrated everything to a new Mac Pro with Maverick. When I try to open a document in CS4, I get-Fatal Error: missing component. Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Version Cue CS4/Client/4.0/Version Cue.framework.
That file appears to be in my Library folder as it is shown in the error message. Ideas?
Thanx

Error code version cue CS4

i have a purchased version of adobe photoshop cs4. Getting an error code every time I try to open images in photoshop that causes photoshop to close rendering photoshop useless to work images in...error code is as follows c:\program files\common files\adobe\adobe version cue cs4\client\4.0.01\version cue.DLL...please help thouroughly frustrated and disgusted

pabze1 wrote:

Is it possible you made a typo there? My Photoshop CS4 is fully up to date, and all I have is this file:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Version Cue CS4\Client\4.0.0\VersionCue.dll
Note that there is no .01 in the path, just .0.
In any case, a missing DLL error probably indicates you need to reinstall Photoshop.

Integration missing between Bridge and Version Cue CS4?

Hi there,
I've installed Design Standard CS4, set-up Version Cue and successfully saved an image from Illustrator.
But when I open bridge there is no sign of Version Cue on the left hand side, the help file suggests that I need to select some options for Version Cue in the Start-up Scripts, but they aren't there...
Has anyone had the same experience?

Adobe recommends that you do not follow the steps above to enable Version Cue CS4 in Bridge CS4.

Uninstall version cue cs2

I've installed CS3 but the version cue cs2 icon still appears on the menu bar. I can't access CS2 from system preferences, "You cannot open Adobe Version Cue CS2 preferences pane on this computer. Contact the developer of this software for a newer version." the menu bar,"You cannot open Adobe Version Cue CS2 preferences pane on this computer. Contact the developer of this software for a newer version." or from the applications folder clicking on the uninstall version cue shows and alias which can't find the original version and inserting the original installation disk doesn't make the uninstaller magically reappear.
The uninstall pdf (uninstall CS2- all together)says "Double-click Activity Monitor.app in Applications/Utilities, select AHCRemind, and click Quit Process." Fine, until I get to AHCRemind which isn't in the activity monitor.

I no longer have Creative Suite 2 on any computer. But, as I recall, when Version Cue CS2 is installed, you should see an "Adobe Version Cue CS2" folder in the Applications folder. Within that folder, there should be an Uninstaller application. Run it.
If that doesn't work, I have a list of files you can manually delete.

Version Cue CS4 Missing, Fatal Error!!! (Mac OS)

I bought the PS CS4 for OSX alone, without the suite. Although I figured that this would be great and all and everything would work. Although what I learned is that without buying the suite you dont get a copy of version cue. Okay, Im thinking this is fine and all, untill I then start up Photoshop and start a new image, at which point Im greeted with this error:
Fatal error - missing component
The complete error message is in the picture
I checked out the forums and found help on disabling the options for versioncue, although they didnt help at all and the issue is still there.
Please help, I have to get PS working for my job, and Adobe Support wont help me.

That is not true at all, Michael.
I have never bought any version of the suite, and the Adobe Version Cue support files have been installed by Photoshop 10.x and 11.x.
For some reason you have a bad install.
Try using the Adobe Uninstaller to uninstall Photoshop 11. Then Repair Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility. Then install Photoshop, and Repair Permissions once again.
DO NOT move the Photoshop icon, nor the Photoshop folder from the default install location in the root Applications folder.
Once you're up and running, apply all available updates.
If you're still having problems after that, please give details about your machine, OS, etc.

Version Cue cs4 is not visible in Bridge CS4

I have installed Adobe Master collection CS4 including VC server. The VC is not visible in Bridge. When I try to contact the server with Drive I stil can't see server. I can see a shared drive with the various projects, but it is not possible to see the various versions of my files, like I used to in Bridge CS3.
In preferences -> scripts there is no script for Version Cue. In Tools there is no item for version Cue. What is missing or has gone wrong with installation.
Please help.
Erwin.

Very few people use Version Cue, so no reply means "we got nothing".

Adobe Version Cue CS4 -- startup entry in Windows 7

Greetings,
I want to know if something will go wrong with Version Cue if I will disable it in Windows startup list.
Is it really necessary to keep it enabled if I use it very rarely? Will the program function correctly if I'll start using it without this entry?
Thanks.

I was of the understanding that CS4 was available in 32-bit and 64-bit varieties? I was aware, of course, that only some of the software was truly 64-bit, but is it the case that by owning CS4 in general, I actually do have the 64-bit version? That's a relief... if I'm understanding correctly.
I'll only be running 4GB of RAM, unfortunately, but I don't do a lot of intensive things with CS4 anyway--I mostly picked up Web Premium to learn some of the Adobe tools for my future work life, and to play around with some basic Web design. I'm sure 4GB's will suffice. If not, I can always upgrade later! I definitely plan to do a fresh install when I my copy of 7 arrives... I'm still rather superstitious of OS "upgrades" after the days of Windows 95 and 98 upgrading. heh
I actually had a bit of a computer problem that prevented me from deactivating my previous install... hopefully it won't cause me too much difficulty to get it back up and running!
Thanks for the information, Bob!

New year - new desaster: Version Cue CS4 damaged all my december work files

This year has not a good start for me. Now holidays are over and i have to work further on my projects from december. But now all files in my version cue projects from december are away - only the folder structure is still there, but where are the files. I installed the last version 4.01, i have looked in the project trash can ... nothing! Terrible!!!
About my system: i installed CS4 Web Standard, end of November on my Vista Home PC. PC works fine and has no harddisk problems. I suppose, that my failure was, that i installed Dreamweaver CS4 new in the end of December - not the other components only a re-install of Dreamweaver. After that i rekognized that my virtual drive from version cue was'nt active, but i got it back with all projects in it, but most files are away now.
Are the files really away, or is there a chance to get them back? Please Adobe guys, don't say no!
Shocked Greetings
Heiner

It says 'no items matched the search'.
I looked in the adobe common folder and cant find the versioncue file there either....
Found a workaround for the copy/paste and deleting problems though. I keep my usb drive plugged in and the window open on my computer, whatever needs copying gets dragged in there and dragged back out. Then I drag the file in the usb into the recycle bin. Kind of a time consuming process(for larger files) but I hope it helps anyone with the problem.
