I want to uninstall the CS4 trial...because:

...yesterday I purchased the disc version of AI CS4 as an upgrade (from AI CS) from a recommended Adobe reseller in Sydney, but the sn isn't being accepted.
I want to uninstall the CS4 tryout and then reinstall the upgrade to see if that works.
Problem is I can't find an uninstall file. Anyone know if there is one, and if so where it's hidden? If there isn't one how do I get AICS4 off my pc?
Thanks, Jackie

Use the Install/uninstall utility that is built into the OS.
On the mc it is called Add or Remove Adobe Illustrator CS 4 you can also, if that does not work go to the Adobe Site and search for the Adobe CS4 Clean up script.
After you run the script you have to manually remove things like settings folder the Illustrator application folder, there should be instructions when you download the script.
If you had to activate the trila pease deactivated it first.

    Hi @Shabir_Bhat ,
    I see by your post that you are unable to uninstall the printer software, you are getting a message that there are still print jobs in the queue. I will certainly do my best to help you.
    Clear Printer Spooler Files and Enable the Spooler Service.
    In desktop mode, press the Windows key and R at the same time, to show the run command line.
    1. Type "Services.msc" (without the quotation marks).
    2. Double-click "Printer Spooler" in the Services list.
    3. Click Stop and click OK.
    4. Navigate to "%WINDIR%\system32\spool\printers", right click on the document and left click to delete the job.
    5. Run "Services.msc" (without the quotation marks).
    6. Double-click "Printer Spooler" in the Services list.
    7. Click on Start. In the Startup Type list, make sure that "Automatic" is selected and click OK.
    If there was any jobs stuck in the queue, after doing these steps, go back in the Print Queue and try deleting them again.
    Go to the Startup screen, (tiles menu) type in "Devices and Printers", select settings, click on Devices and Printers.
    Right-click or tap and hold the name of the printer, and then click or tap See what's printing.
    Click or tap Printer, and then click or tap Cancel All Documents.
    Click or tap Yes to confirm the action.
    If documents remain in the print queue, restart the computer.
    If you are still having issues, download and run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. Find and fix common printer problems using HP diagnostic tools for Windows?
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.
    Have a nice day!
    Thank You.

  • FireFox still identifies pdfs as Foxit documents even though I'm opening them in Adobe Reader and uninstalled the Foxit trial and FF plugin years ago.

    When I click on a pdf file link in FireFox, the Windows open file dialogue opens, saying "You have chosen to open [filename]
    which is: Foxit Reader PDF Document [filesize]
    from: [author]
    What should FireFox do with this file?
    [selected radio button] Open with Adobe Reader
    THERE IS NO PROBLEM OPENING THE FILE. It opens in Adobe Reader, in a window outside of Firefox, which is exactly what I have it set up to do. The problem is that it identifies the file as a "Foxit Reeader PDF Document," even though I uninstalled the Foxit trial and associated FireFox plugin ages ago, and Foxit does not appear anywhere on my computer in any way, shape or form (that I have access to). No Foxit in the file associations for Windows, or in the applications associations for FireFox. There is no Foxit plugin installed, and I even went and deleted what was left of the Foxit directory. Yet pdfs are still identified in FireFox as Foxit files, so FireFox must be storing this old info somewhere. How do I get rid of it?
    BTW, files open in a browser window inside the browser in the other 3 browsers I have installed, so there is no open file dialogue, and I can't tell whether there is the same problem. When I check the properties of a pdf outside of FireFox (by rightclicking a pdf on my desktop, for example), it is identified as an Adobe Reader file. I have both Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat. I have two Adobe Acrobat plugins showing in FireFox (10.1.8.24 and 11.0.5.3). Should I have two? No plugins, extensions, or anything else by Foxit.

    Most likely this information is in the mimeTypes.rdf file, which can accumulate a lot of obsolete information which occasionally does cause problems. You can rename the file and have Firefox rebuild it from scratch with only the current applications detected (as far as Firefox can tell from the Windows Registry).
    Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using
    Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
    Switch back to Firefox and Exit
    Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then rename '''mimeTypes.rdf''' to something like mimeTypes.old
    Restart Firefox. Presumably now it will forget all about Foxit. Unfortunately, it may also have forgotten some of your application preferences, but hopefully those won't take too long to reestablish.

    I downloaded premier- but now I cant find it in my apps- I uninstalled the old trial version, where is the new version I just downloaded?

    Doing a factory reset will delete your Firefox install. Even if you move the app to the sdcard.

    good morning , I have installed Creative Suite 5.5 Design Premium and I want to uninstall the Adobe Indesign CS5.5. Deactivation of the license is necessary before then reinstall ?

    Are you just uninstalling ID, and leaving the rest of the suite in place? You don't need to deactivate to do that.
    A suite license does not permit you to install individual components on many different machines so that different users have access to them, if that is what you are contemplating.

  • Do I have to uninstall the CS4 software before updating the NVIDIA driver and reinstall CS4 after?

    I have just installed CS4 on Windows 7 and I get the message that I need to update NVIDIA driver.
    Is it really neccassary to update driver even if I have no problems using Photoshop?
    Do I have to uninstall the CS4 software before updating the NVIDIA  driver and reinstall CS4 afterwards or is there a way around it?
    Here are the technical details:
    Processor speed: 3325 MHz
    Video Card Vendor: NVIDIA Corporation
    Video Card Renderer: GeForce GT 220/PCI/SSE2
    OpenGL Drawing: Enabled.
    Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce GT 220
    Video Mode: 1680 x 1050 x 4294967296 colors
    Video Card Driver: nvd3dum.dll,nvwgf2um.dll,nvwgf2um.dll
    Driver Version: 8.15.11.8627
    Built-in memory: 3063 MB
    Free memory: 1981 MB
    Memory available to Photoshop: 1643 MB
    Memory used by Photoshop: 60 %
    Image cache levels: 4

    I have never had to reinstall any program for a video driver.
    Now, check out the instructions for your particular nVidia driver, and the exact steps can differ. Just did my Quadro FX-4500 and it was just an install over the older driver. However, looking at another nVidia card's driver, and there were 3-4 settings in the nVidia console, that had to be reset BEFORE installing that driver. Did not affect me, but would have been a different operation for the next guy, with a different nVidia card. nVidia makes it easy with the necessary instructions - follow those to the letter, or issues can arise and the entire driver can get hosed. Things could be a simple as download, and execute, to having to do several things before you execute.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Problems installing the CS4 trial

    So I am trying to install the cs4 trial. It downloaded ok, but when it comes to the installation I am having a problem.
    When it starts extracting the files, it will extract up until about 85-90% and then it stops and gives me an error message saying something along the lines of:
    Extraction could not be completed due to insuffient space or incorrect privelages in the destination folder'
    I have tried right clicking and running as the administrator but I get the same message.
    Any help would be very much appreciated. thanks.
    Oh, and I use Vista. Thanks x

    Make sure you have enough free space in your Temp directory which should be C:/Users/Kate/AppData/Roaming. For install, about 2 GB are needed temporarily plus of course the actual disk space for the program...

  • Where are the CS4 Trials?

    Hello Adobe Community,
         I was wondering where I might find the CS4 Trial versions of the following programs. 
    After Effects CS4
    Premiere Pro CS4
    Creative Master Suite CS4
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
         I currently run Mac OSX 10.4.11.
    I have looked at "http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html" but it
    wont bring me the the right page. I am also wondering if CS4 supports 24fps and 1080p?
    Thank You,
    GW

    BE FORWARNED: Think you're safe if you have a TIme Machine backup? Nope! If you restore your computer from an Apple Time Machine backup to a new hard disk, your legit, registered CS applications may not work. If you don't have the original DVDs, or if the original disks are damaged, you're stuck.
    I had to replace my hard drive when it developed bad secors. Adobe Support's only answer: Buy the current version for $900.
    Thanks, Adobe. If I could download a demo version of my older product, then there would be no problem. I could install and register it. Instead of satisfying a long time loyal customer, they've turned me into someone who will never buy another Adobe product.

    Click to enlarge Thanks to my browser and the reply button, your full question was
    "I want to get the free trial. However, do I have to pay for the next month?"
    I'm pleased to inform you that the answer is no. You are under absolutely NO obligation to continue your subscription if you don't unconditionally want to. (Really, though, why would you cancel your subscription with the lowest rates in online telephony?)

For your reference: A month-to-month Unlimited World subscription is US$13.99 and can get as low as US$11.89/mo. when you prepay for one year (a 15% off discount.)

  • Need Help Uninstalling PP CS4 Trial

    I have had CS4 Design Standard on my pc for a while now.  I recently downloaded the trial version of Premiere Pro CS4 which has now expired.  I have decided not to purchase it and would like to uninstall it (it takes up a lot of space that I would like back).  When I begin the uninstall I'm brought to the "Choose Products to Uninstall" screen.  In this screen when I choose to uninstall Encore CS4, OnLocation CS4 and Premiere Pro CS4 it automatically selects to uninstall Bridge CS4, Speech Analysis Models, Device Central CS4, Extension Manager CS4, and several Supporting Components which include fonts, scripts, update manager, etc.  How can I uninstall Premiere Pro without uninstalling these programs which I assume are needed for the rest of my CS4 programs to function properly?  I've included two images as an example.  Thanks in advance...

    I'm still having an issue with the uninstaller and would like to get this off of my computer.  Does anyone out there know how to prevent it from uninstalling the shared files??
