Importing site from CS5 to CS6

I have been moving my sites from CS5 to CS6. At the same time I am making the switch to FTPS for all the sites.
On one specific site, I exported, imported into CS6, then made the FTPS changes needed for Yahoo hosted sites. However, I failed to remember that this site has a different password, which I don't have access to, and I typed over the password.
I thought if I deleted the site in CS6 and imported the .ste from CS5, I would restore the password. Alas, I am getting a password/login failure error message.
Was my logic in the re-importing invalid?
I also tried to cut/paste the password from the CS5 site I still had available into the CS6 site, but this did not work either.
Any suggestions other than contact Yahoo for assistance?

One other thing that you can do with respect to usernames and passwords on sites is to use Apple's Keychain Access. The folks at Adobe were very smart and they place usernames and passwords into your Keychain Access file every time you create a site and give it a server.
Simply go to your Spotlight search and type "Keychain Access" then click on it and look for your site. You will have to enter your user password to view passwords in Keychain Access, but it will let you re-establish your connection with your web host if you define a new site and mess things up in Dreamweaver.

Importing Actions from CS5 to CS6

I have written many actions for PS CS5 and recently installed CS6. I cannot figure out how to import my old Actions into CS6. I fould the Load Actions dialogue, which tells me to locate the Action(s) I want to load. That's where I get stuck. Tried and tried but cannot locate the CS5 Actions I wrote. I am using OS X 10.7.3. Suggestions?

I am a dullard when it comes to some of these things. Couldn't find a SET NAME command. However, it occurred to me that my Acrions were just in the default set in CS5. I created a new set, moved all of my actions into it, and then was able to do Save Actions without a problem. Of course, that loaded easily in CS6. Problem solved. Just wish that there were a much simpler way.
Appreciate your help. Now all I have to do is figure out the rest of CS6.

Migrating settings, actions, plug-ins etc. from CS5 to CS6 (Creative Cloud)

Hi,
I wondered if someone could help me with the transition from CS5 to CS6 (Creative Cloud). I'm on a Mac with Mountain Lion.
I would like to migrate as many settings (i.e. workspaces where relevant), personal Photoshop actions, plug-ins (i.e. Type DNA, FontShop [Photoshop], Scriptographer [Illustrator] and Blurb Template Creator [InDesign]) as possible from CS5 to CS6. What is the easiest and smoothest way to do this?
Some settings, actions and plug-ins might not work with CS6, I don't know. I can't find where my Photoshop actions are archived atm.
Can I import extensions from Adobe Extension Manager CS5 to Adobe Extension Manager CS6?
Should I uninstall all CS5 apps? I'd like to keep InDesign CS5 for backwards compatibility at least.
Does Audition completely replace Soundbooth? What about Flash Catalyst, Device Central and OnLocation?
Edit: I have already installed all the Creative Cloud applications btw. But I haven't uninstalled any CS5 apps yet.
Thanks,
Eivind

Hi Elvind,
I would suggest keeping both CS5 and CS6 versions on the system until you are fully transitioned, longer if you want. When you launch Photoshop CS6 it will ask you if you want to import settings from the prior version. Third party plug-ins may or may not be compatible between versions so you might need to check with the manufacturer to find out. You would most likely need to reinstall any third party plug-ins that integrate into existing Adobe product installations though.
I found this document for Photoshop CS6
http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/preset-migration-photoshop-cs6.htm l
For the PS actions, I normally open the actions panel, highlight the actions set (folder) I wanted to migrate, from the flyout menu of the panel choose the option to save the set, this creates the .atm file. There is another option for importing actions in the same menu.
I can't speak to migrating in relation to the other products. I would recommend posting in the respective product forums.

How do I switch plugins from CS5 to CS6?

How do i switch plugins from CS5 to CS6?

Welcome to the forum Steven,
Do you have specific ones you wish to migrate?
I think with CS6 I believe the underlying architecture for plugins was changed, so you may wish to check with the makers to see if they have CS6 compatible update versions available.
I think some had to be re-written under the new framework to be compatible under CS6.

CS6 Three-Way CC not importing setting from CS5.5 Timelines or from Saved Presets from CS.5.5

Hello,
I had created two presets for the CS5.5 Three Way Color Corrector that I use in almost every project for dealing with sun shadows and hightlights on talents's skin and they no longer work in CS6. I've tried loading the old project/timeline/sequence into Premiere CS6 but the TWCC just acts like it is at default settings. No changes to the video at all.
I also had saved my two TWCC settings as presets (from CS5.5) to the hard drive to I would not loose them. I tried reloading those presets into CS6 but same problem.. they do nothing now. I guess no one checked to see that the new CS6 TWCC was backwards compatible with CS5.5. Major problem when loading / converting cs5.5 timelines to update client's projects. Adobe, please take a look at this and fix as soon as you can. Thanks! Wayland
Version info:
CS6 Cloud (last update as of friday Sept. 28, 2012)
CS5.5 Master Collection (previous version - now uninstalled)
Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit

Hi Jim,
I've spent the better part of the day trying to redo what I had before and frankly the new TWCC sucks! The previous one was sooo much better. I can't even get close to what I had before. Many of the controls show up when you select 'show' but have little or no effect on the real video. I wish I could just delete the current one and replace it with the old one. If I still had CS5.5 I'd try that. Not happy at all. I'll be up all night trying to catch up due to time wasted on this stupid redesign of the TWCC as I have a ton of work due tomorrow.
Thanks for the reply and Best Wishes,
Wayland

How to import site from cs6 to cc if I forgot to export site

I need help getting my sites to Dreamweaver CC. I just reformated my computer and forgot to do an EXPORT of the sites. I have all the folders of all my sites. So how do I create a new site and move those files into the new site. Is there a right and wrong way to do it? I tried creating a site, but when I go into the root folder I pointed it to the folder isn't there.
Thanks

If you have the local files (all site files for given sites within individual folders on your hard drive) all you need to do is create a new site definition by going to Site > New Site and for the Local Root Folder, browse to one of those site folders on your HD.
All exporting does is save the server info, credentials and miscelaneous stuff on the back end. It doesn't do anything with your actual files on your hard drive.
EDIT: If your local files were wiped out during your computer reformatting, you can create a new site from the old content online by going to Site > New Site and then placing all of the FTP info into it. Open the site in the Files window of DW and choose Get, then click Yes to Get Entire Site. That will download all of the files off of the remote server to your local machine again.

Keywords lost in upgrading from cs5 to cs6

Hi,
Recently, I upgraded from Photoshop CS5 to CS6, including Bridge.
A very bad surprise was to find that the keyword system that I had developed and used to assign kewords to new pictures was no longer there.
Apparently, this very important "personal setting" was not transferred in the upgrade procedure.
What can I do to retrieve it?
What is the filename in which Bridge keeps the keywords?
Perhaps I could find it on my system or some backup.
Or, if that won't work: I notice that when opening an old picture its kwds appear in the kwd panel, although in italics. and not in the hierarchical fashion they should.
However, retrieving my kwds this way would be a terible task if I have to open each of thousands of pictures one by one.
Is there a batch kind of way to do this, that retrieves the kwds from all pix in a folder with subfolders?
Please help,
Sverker

Thanks all for considering my problem and for the advice!
I was away from these matters for a while, now I'm back on it.
First let me mention that I did indeed find a program for looking into the big .MIG file.
But alas, the keywords file was not there, don't know why (thus it didn't matter to me that extraction of files from the .MIG didn't seem to work.)
Thus I was ready to follow the advice you guys gave me from the beginning, to recreate the keyword list from the image files. I made some use of the suggested Find / Keyword, chosing a particular keyword or just "exists" for a folder.
But I soon found out that my keyword structure needed several improvements, and thus I gave up simply hitting Make Persist.
Instead I am working my way on smaller chunks of files -- feels worth the trouble.
To make this work more efficient, it would be useful if there were a way to prevent Bridge from starting to immediately writing changes to the files on disk, doing it over and over again for each keyword I assign or remove.
Would be much better if I could make all changes in, say, a folder and then ask Bridge to write the changes to disk.
Do you know if there is an option to stop the immediate writing of changes?
I vaguely seem to remember I'v read about it, but now I can't find any such opotion.
(maybe this should be posted as a new question?)
Regards,
Sverker

After upgrading from cs5 to cs6, do I have to upgrade extensis fusion 3 to 4?

Do I have to upgrade from fusion 3 to 4 now that I have upgraded cs5 to cs6?
And do you know if extensis offers student discounts? I can't find anything on the 'net or their site, but I thought I'd ask here too before I buy the upgrade for (ugh) $50.
I thought maybe I would open the files in cs5 first, to auto-activate the fonts, then close, then reopen in cs6. Kind of a hassle, but it saves me a bit of green…
Any suggestions welcome.

Yes, I have posted there, too. But these forums are more robust. Thanks

Upgrade From CS5 To CS6 Problems With Flash Graphics?

Hi People.
I upgraded from Adobe CS5 to CS6. I originally built a printable book and developed an interactive version in InDesign CS5, which I finally exported to Flash. For the printed version I used Adobe illustrator to create the book images and for the interactive version I converted the images into SWF.
The upgrade from Adobe CS5 to CS6 went well for the InDesign printed version of the book and I exported the new CS6 version of the printed book to PDF. However when I opened the old InDesign CS5 interactive version of the book in InDesign CS6 I was missing the links for the images.
When I tried to relink the images I was told `Cannot place this file. No filter found for requested operation:.
Please please help me because I am 2000 images in the new CS6 interactive version and short of going back and replacing each one individually, I am at a loss.
Thanks.

Steve,
Thanks...
Yes I can place the old SWF file into a new CS6 document and that works well, but I`m talking about 3 books of a total of nearly 10,00 images, which is a lot of time of replacing old for new,
Maybe I`ll stick with the interactive books staying in CS5 because I can`t see any material benefit of upgrading them to CS6, unless they were to be EPuped from their present CD Rom format?
However I do think it is a dreadfull oversight of Adobe not to stop me be penalized in a large slice of my profession, interactive second language book production, for the good intent of upgrading my CS Master Suite,
Take Care.

Problem importing actions from CS3 to CS6

Hi, I have just installed CS6 and need some actions that I made in CS3 and earlier.
Info that I read on support sited said that I should be able to import them.
I have tried the edit import actions menu.
I have tried dragging the old action set to the new version.
All to no avail.
Tried the online live help and got no where.
What I would like to try next is to instal CS4 and see if I can import the action set from CS3 and then onwards from CS4 to CS6
However the support person could not give me a link to download CS4......
Any help greatly appreciated as I really need my old actions and CS6 is a useless to me without them!

You need to load them into Photoshop to use them. Their save files can be any where on your system. Once loaded they are copied into your user id Photoshop preferences. Photoshop load no action set on its one. The default set is in Adobe default set of preferences. This is the only set in the Photoshop default Actions Palette. The action set listed in the action palette's fly-out menu are the one in Adobe Presets Actions and perhaps ones you copied into there or save into a folder Adobe set up for you user id for the current release of Photoshop your using. My advice is do not save any of your actions sets into any Adobe folder. Instead save them into a folder like "My Photoshop Actions" load them from there too or drag an drop them onto Photoshop. Once loaded as I wrote above they get copied into your user id Photoshop preferences. And will be in the Actions Palette when you shutdown Photoshop and re open Photoshop.
Photoshop does not import actions you must load them one way or an other.
