Install CC 2014 without losing CC

I know I should know the answer to this, but I'm overworked and can't focus.
I have CC apps on my main machine. I want to install CC 2014 without losing my CC installation.
I'm reluctant to click the "Update" button in the Adobe Update Manager because I don't know what's going to replace what.
Where do I go to control the download?

Quit the CC Desktop app first and then restart it so it updates. It should then show you the CC2014 apps (though for me is said Update on them rather than Install).

Upgrading from CC to CC 2014 without losing Actions & Filters

I'd like to upgrade from CC 14.2.1 (64 bit) to CC 2014, but I can't afford to lose my Actions & Filters since I spent 18 months creating and installing. I don't mind moving them, but I need to know where they are and where to move them to. Or anything else that helps me upgrade without losing them all.

I strongly recommend you save your actions in .atn files and keep the files in a safe place. Do this by clicking on the actions set name, then clicking the icon at the upper-right of the Actions panel and choosing Save Actions. This protects you from the loss of information from Photoshop preferences (which should not happen, but it's always good to be safe).
If the installation process somehow does not automatically copy your actions to the new version when it is installed, you can always load them from the .atn files yourself.
Regarding what you're calling Filters, I'm assuming you're referring to 3rd party plug-ins. Since Photoshop CC 2014 is a completely separate and new application, you'll simply have to reinstall them into the new version. I recommend not trying to copy them from one version to the other, though that can be done in a pinch - you just have to be sure you get all the related files together (some of which may not be under the Plug-ins subfolder).
Keep in mind that if you don't uninstall Photoshop CC 14.2.1 (and I recommend you don't), you can continue to use it in a pinch, until you get Photoshop CC 2014 fully set up and are confident in it. As I mentioned, Photoshop CC 2014 is a completely separate install.

Can i revert back to version 3.6.15 after installing ff 4 without losing anything thats been saved

can i revert back to version 3.6.15 after installing ff 4 without losing

If you follow the instructions I gave it does not delete the profile folder where the user data such as bookmarks are stored. When you install the earlier version it will use the same profile data so you do not lose your user data.

I have to use two different versions of Firefox for two different employers - How to install new version without losing old one?

One employer requires that I use Firefox 3. Another requires that I use the newest version. How do I install a new version Firefox to a different path without over-writing the old version?

The easiest way it to have one version be a Firefox Portable installation. The Portable installation is self-contained and won't affect your "regular" Firefox installation.<br />
http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable
Otherwise you need to set up a Profile specifically for the 2nd version and make sure the correct Profile is launched with each version. <br />
[http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+Profiles] <br />
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Shortcut_to_a_specific_profile
Overall you are probably better off replacing your current Firefox 3.6.25 version with the Portable Apps version - http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable/localization#legacy36 - and install Firefox 9.0.1 as your "regular" installation.

How can I re-install v11 Fox without losing everything ?

The problems with it are escalating. I would like to reinstall v10 perhaps? (Advice?) .
AND not lose all the extensions etc.
Can I uninstall V11 or just get a new copy of 10 and load over - or try v11 again?
I really need to get back to work and my options are to go to another Browser without all my workaday tools.....
Hate to go to I.E> and try and import.

What problems are you having with Firefox 11? i'd love to help you out with them so then we can get you using Firefox like you want!
You don't want to downgrade to Firefox 10, as doing so will leave you open to several known security holes, plus bugs and other issues. You can reinstall Firefox 11 from [http://www.getfirefox.com www.getfirefox.com] (all your personal data will be saved so long as you don't remove Firefox before hand), and see if that helps.
Try to start Firefox in [[Safe mode|Safe mode]]. This mode disables all extensions, user customizations, hardware acceleration, etc. temporarily for diagnostic and troubleshooting. If Firefox works find in Safe Mode, then this is likely an add-on issue. Restart Firefox in normal mode, then type "About:addons" (without the quotes) in the address bar. Disable your extensions one by one, restarting Firefox between each one, until you find the trouble maker. Once you do, you can disable that add-on and report the issue to that add-on's developer.
A few other basic trouble shooting things you can try is this:
Run all Windows Updates, install all needed service packs, etc.
Update your graphics driver (Firefox uses your graphics card for some rendering, and an out of date graphics card driver can cause problems. [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers].
Update all your plugins (Flash, Java, etc.): [http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/ http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/].
Download and Install MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, run a full Scan. [http://www.malwarebytes.org/ http://www.malwarebytes.org/]. This helps check that there are no viruses on your computer causing issues. You can uninstall this program after you clean off any infections.

I can't update iTunes from within iTunes, can I manually install 10.7 without losing iPhone backups?

The program doesn't do anything when I click "check for updates" besides ask me to download it. I need to update to windows 10.7 in order to restore my new iPhone 5 from a backup of my old 4, which broke a couple of weeks ago. If I download the new version and install it manually will I lose my backups?

Updating to 10.7.0.21 using an iTunesSetup.exe or iTunes64Setup.exe shouldn't touch your content. By way of an example, I updated to 10.7.0.21 using an iTunes64Setup.exe and didn't lose anything.
(That being said, it's still always a good idea to maintain a current backup at all times, in case of disasters of any sort.)

Clean-install OS X without losing Apps?

Dear forum,
I need to perform a Clean Install on an iBook G4 running 10.4.11 and return the machine to a client with all the Applications in-tact.
* In Leopard I'd normally do a full Time Machine backup, perform the Clean Install, then use Migration Assistant to restore all the Apps etc from the Time Machine backup - but how would I get this kind of result in Tiger?
Thanks in advance

Shaun:
Would this method work for ALL the installed Applications, Photoshop CS3, Microsoft Office etc, or just the default OS X apps?
All applications in the Applications Folder, including third party applications, will normally be preserved. However, according to the article Mac OS X: About the Archive and Install feature
Some third-party software items may not be preserved. If third-party software doesn't work after the Archive and Install is performed, reinstall it or contact the vendor.

Fresh install of Leopard, without losing settings and applications

Hi, my computer has gradually been getting slower and slower, and it was suggested to me that it could just be from all the program updates I've had to install over the years, and that an effective solution to get it back to better speed is to do a fresh install.
I'm not computer illiterate, but I do not want to stuff it up and lose everything. What is the best way to do a fresh install with the least hassle about setting it all back up again with files, settings and applications? I back up (sporadically, not as often as I should) with Time Machine on an external hd.
Easy to follow steps would be appreciated please!

It was suggested to you by whom? Software updates alone do not take up a ton of space (as they overwrite previous versions), and so should not be causing your problems. An archive and install, assuming you then apply all the software updates anyway, won't take up any less space or necessarily go any faster, given you'll restore all the apps, files, and settings you have now on a slow iBook.
How much free hard drive space do you have? Leopard really wants 10-15%, which for you (assuming your profile information is accurate) means bout 20G. If you have less than that free, that's likely the cause of your slow down.

Installing new windows without losing my podcasts settings???

Hi,
since i've got problems with my windows, i am really keen on formatting and reinstalling xp. i've already made a backup of all my podcast-files (my itunes library is on drive d:, so formating drive c: won't affect my files anyway),
however, i don't want to lose my podcast settings and descriptions within itunes. is there any solution for this problem
thanks in advance for your help

Podcast descriptions are part of the episode files. Episodes use the artist, album, and track track tags for this.
When opening iTunes on new installation hold down the shift key during startup of iTunes. It will open dialog to select library. Navigate to file and select it.
Some of this may help

How can I reinstall iTunes without losing tune content of my iPod

I had a major Windows system 32 problem and had to reformat my hard drive. (Computer was backed up before incident.)
Later, I got a message about a corrupt iTunes driver and found iPod and iTunes in recycle bin.
Long story short:
I have installed updated iPod software and now need to re-install iTunes. I read somewhere how to re-install updated iTunes without losing what is already on my iPod...but I forget where I read it.
Of course, I DON'T WANT TO LOSE the content in my iPod.
My understanding is that, if I do nothing to prevent it, when I download iTunes and connect my iPod to the PC, I will lose all my iPod content because the new iTunes library will be empty.
How do I get iTunes back again, without losing my iPod tunes?
All suggestions and help very much appreciated!!

Thanks very much!

What other methods are there to re-install Win 8.1 pro without losing files & programs, if I am unable to update my Recovery image?

So I am thinking my Windows 8.1 Pro needs a refresh, but I have not ran "recimg /createimage C:\*" for a while and because of the problems I have. I cannot create a new one, it just wont work and I've had a post on here about that issue for a while
now and nothing has worked. So I know I need to re-install windows but I really want to be able to keep my Programs & files.
So my question is, are there any other methods to re-install Windows 8.1 pro without losing my programs?
That's the reason I have not just done a reinstall, because of the time and effort needed to do this in a timely manner. Also I need to keep my programs APPDATA intact so that my applications still work as they do now, some programs have got months
of history and data. Also I am not certain I still have the installers for some of my applications, I know I can get them but again its the time it would take.
This is why I run a separate backup of my APPDATA DIR, am I right in thinking that If I did have to reinstall that I could just restore the old APPDATA data to the new Install and my programs would automatically have all there normal settings?
So what are my options?
Thanks peeps.

Isn't that only used when a PC will not boot?
What options does booting with this give me?
Thanks

Hi,

Installing Maverick on my Mac lost almost all of the calendar entries. They are still on my iPhone and new entries move freely to both devices via iCloud. How do I get the entries from my iPhone to iCloud without losing them from iPhone?

Like many others after I installed Maverick I found that all the calendar history has been lost and most of the forward info has also been lost. Also in order to get calendar, contacts and notes to sync with the iPhone I have had to move to iCloud. Contacts and notes sync fine. new calendar entries sync ok. My iPhone has all the calendar entries that were on the Mac before I installed Maverick. So far iCloud has not overwritten them nor have they synced onto iCloud.
How can I get all the entries from my iPhone onto iCloud, without losing the only copy of my calendar from my iPhone?
Thanks Apple for deciding to take over my privacy. I do not want this data stored on a US based server. Fortunately Mail still syncs via my own email provider. I guess Apple will find a way to stop that soon too!

Greetings Nefertiti72,
It seems you are experiencing an issue with contact syncing and management. It seems you've removed an email account which contained a number of contacts that are not associated with your iCloud account. I have linked to a knowledge base article which provides more information about iCloud contacts syncing:
Get help using iCloud Contacts - Apple Support
Learn what to do if you’re having issues using iCloud Contacts. For example, you might make changes to Contacts that don't update across all of your devices.
You may want to consider importing the contacts from the email account you removed. You can do it easily by following the steps in this article:
iCloud: Import a vCard
You can import an electronic business card, also called a vCard, into iCloud Contacts. If the vCard contains contact information for more than one person, each contact becomes a separate entry.
In iCloud Contacts, choose Import vCard from the Action pop-up menu , which appears at the bottom of the All Contacts list or a list of group contacts
Select a vCard to import.
The contacts from the vCard are added to the All Contacts group in Contacts. You can add the contacts to any other group by dragging them to the desired group.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Bobby_D

How do i sync apps to my iPhone 4S using itunes without losing aps already installed on the phone but with a different apple ID, and i dont have the apple ID??

how do i sync apps to my iPhone 4S using itunes without losing aps already installed on the phone but with a different apple ID, and i dont have the apple ID??

How have you managed to get apps on your phone that are tied to a different and unknown AppleID?
If these apps were not purchased by you, having them is effectively software piracy and you should purchase them using your own AppleID if you want to keep hem.
