I have upgraded to CS5, what to do with CS3 now sitting in my computer?

I hope there is someone out there that can help because, even though Adobe took my money, they refuse to give me support because I live in Europe but committed the cardinal sin to buy Photoshop in the US.
Perhaps this is a dumb question, but I need the hard disk space and I'm unsure if it's OK to remove my old Photoshop CS3 version still sitting on my computer after ugrading to CS5. My other concern is the activation code for my old CS3 that was used to authenticate and register my upgrade - what about that? If it's OK te remove CS3, should that be de-activated before I un-install CS3?

You can use CS3 Help menu to Deactivate CS3 before you un-install it the will allow you to install it in the future should you find a need. Yes you can un-install CS3 to recover a little disk space.  You can also find where Adobe stores you CS3 Preferences and delete these also.  However I would suggest that you should leave CS3 installed.  There are Bugs in CS5 that are not in CS3. Bugs with Device drivers and GPU support as well as a bug in the action palette's player.

    Yesterday I have upgraded my itune and icloud on my PC, now I notice my photo stream in my PC doesn't get latest picture I took from my iphone 4s (IOS 7.0.4). Whenever I open icloud photo, my PC prompts me the message below. Please advice what to do? 

    Hello
    Try restoring the device and setting up as new.
    If it is still shows an iCloud activation lock, then it's on an iCloud account
               The wrong device was removed from an iCloud account.
    Check any other Apple IDs you might have at
                 iCloud.com
    Get signed into them and remove that device.
    I wish this was the first time I seen this.
    Best of Luck

    Hi,
    You can not find support for Windows 7 from HP site. I believe it should work with Vista driver. Please use this:
       ftp://15.217.49.140/pub/softpaq/sp35501-36000/sp35682.exe
    You can find more drivers from this:

  • I am just about giving up!  I have upgraded Pages to 0.9 4.3.  Now when i copy text from an incoming email and paste it it pastes in as an Object and I can't work on it.

    I am just about giving up!  I have upgraded Pages to 0.9 (4.3).  Now when I copy text from an incoming email and paste it into Pages it pastes in as an Object and I can't work on it.  It has a border round it and corner markers.  I have never had this problem before.  I have looked at every conceivable thing but cannot find how to get rid of this Object and just paste in the wanted text.  If I fiddle and fiddle within this text I can eventually get a cursor and work on the text - but how on earth can I get rid of the surrounding box?  
    I don't know if this is at all clear but I can't think of any other way to describe this - but it looks like this in Pages with corner and top, bottom and side markers.

    Peter hello - I have been copying and pasting for as long as I can remember and it has NEVER done this before - so why now!? Anyway, Jerry has told me about Paste and Match Style --- yet another new thing! 
    I have also discovered that I don''t need to hold down Option when I go to Save to get Save As -  I can hold down 4 keys (shift, option, command and S) and it will bring up Save As!! 
    Thanks for your response.

    Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

    Set computer to lock with password in 5 seconds. now cannot open in time because of the 5 second shutdown. What can I do to now get into my computer??

    I'm not sure which option you set.  Requiring the password after 5 seconds in System Preferences > Security only kicks in after the sleep or screen saver.  The smallest option for sleep or screen saver is 1 minute.
    Which options did you set?

  • I have upgrade to IOS 8 and all Fotos are ereased and on my Computer is only the last Backup and there a no Photos now what can i do?

    I have upgrade to IOS 8 and all Fotos are ereased on my Iphone and on my Computer is only the last Backup and there a no Photos now what can i do?

    You really need to try this on a computer, not on the iPad.
    Seeing how what is in the cloud is also on the iPad, if the content is not on the iPad, there is a good chance that the content is lost. But you can try logging into www.icloud.com in a web browser on a computer and log into your account and see if you can get into the Pages app. You may have to sign up for iCloud drive if you didn't do so already. Make SURE you that you read the blurb that will pop up in that window in iCloud for more information.

  • Can i skip installing CS2 if i have upgrade to CS5.5?

    Ihave CS2 and CS5.5 upgrade discs. Now i have new PC with win8 and my old registrationd on CS2 doesnt work anymore. I have to download all the files for th CS2 again, installit with the provided serial number and then upgrade to cs5.5 or is there a way i ca upgrade directli without even activating the CS2? I want to avoid downloading CS2 all over again since i have it on discs.
    thanks
    M:P

    Hi Michael,
    Have you tried installing the CS5.5 first ? Once you are installing the product, it would ask you for the previous version serial number and then you can enter the CS2 serial number and that should do the job.
    Cheers,

  • I just upgraded to CS5 from Dreamweaver 8 - where are my sites?

    I just upgraded to CS5 from Dreamweaver 8. I am running Mac OS 10.5.8. I was expecting that when I launched CS5 for the first time it would find whatever files it need from my Dreamweaver 8 and my sites would be available in CS5. However, I don't see any of my sites that I manage regularly in Dreamweaver 8. How do I import them in?
    Thanks.

    Beacuse of the upgrade to Mac OS X 10.7.3 my Dreamweaver 8 (unexpectedly) stopped working altogether so I had to upgrade to CS5.5
    (which, functionally, I didn't even want to do (yet)).
    Although it was an upgrade, it didn't take my site settings from v8.
    How can I get them now, as Dreamweaver 8 stopped working!?
    Please advice as there are settings in there that clients have entered themselves and are not tracked anywhere else.
    Ansd is there a way to get CS5.5 to actually work with our html5 / css3 sites as it shows them all garbled?
    I hoped this would at least solve this issue, but it sure hasn't :-(
    Kind regards

  • How to upgrade Lr3 & CS5 to be compatible with new Macbook Pro retina screen

    I believe that Adobe has recently released upgrades to Lightroom and CS6 that make them compatible with the retina screen.   First of all, is this correct and secondly, if I have Lr3 and CS5, how do I upgrade?   I know it's a dumb question.

  • I have upgraded my iPad 1st generation to ios5 and now my wifi is grade out cannot connect to any network

    Post I have upgraded to the latest is release from apple my wifi button under setting has grayed out

    First, take a look and see if you have airplane mode turned on.  If so, turn it off.
    Second, goto settings, general, reset, then reset all network settings.
    Third, if no joy, try a reboot.
