Installed CS5 after CS5.5. How do I fix associations?

I installed CS5.5 Master which includes PRemiere and After Effects onto a brand new PC I built. I though I knew that I'd never need my copy of CS5 MC again so I didn't even load it. Then I realized I have several plug-ins that will not install in CS5.5. So I went ahead and installed CS5 MAster but only selected After Effects and Premiere since these are the only ones I need the plugins for. Well...it worked, but going forward "all" plugins are pointing to CS5 now instead. I modified the registry key HKLM\software\adobe\premiere pro\current version\plug-insDir to point back to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Common\Plug-ins\CS5.5\MediaCore.
I thought this should fix it but is does not. Additionally all my projects are opening with CS5 instead of CS5.5. Is there some way to fix this? Can I reinstall CS5.5 overtop of itself, even if I've done all the updates and installed a dozen+ plugins? Any help would be great!
Thanks.

These are older versions of a few plugins that work in CS5.5 but will not properly install since the installation package is looking for CS5. I have them installed and working now, but I am wondering how I can get CS5.5 to be the main version of CS on my system again? I tried to go into Programs and Features and see if I could simply do a repair of the installation but Adobe only offers uninstall options. I'll keep looking. I realize now that I should have installed CS5 then CS5.5 but I have a streamlined clean build that I spent 3-4 days on and don't want to start from scratch.
Thanks.

    This has nothing to do with your pictures. As long as LR works, nothing happens. The CC app merely has lost an entry in the installer database. Would a reinstall fix it? Sure. Is it necessary? Not really (until the next version or update). So unless you have too much time to spend or something isn't working, I'm sure you can find more interesting things to do with your tiem. Otherwise use the cleaner tool and get to it:

  • Removing CS5 After CS5.5 installation (MAC)

    Hi
    I know this is a boring question but.....I bought the upgrade to CS5.5 from CS5 (Master Collection for MAC).  I thought it would ask be about removing old versions during install but it didn't. Now I have both CS5 AND CS5.5 installed.
    I know that inside each program folder (in Applicatioins) is an "Uninstall" program.  Should I just do that with each of the old versions? I am nervous that something weird might happen (removing part of the new versions).  Thank you in advance for your help.

    You have 25 terabytes on your internal drive? Is that even possible? Because I'm not talking about externals. Anyway, I admittedly am not a film guy, I found this thread through googling and I will check out that link you sent but its just annoying that I have to download something else to uninstall some software cleanly. A basic thing users do all the time.
    Also don't get me wrong I love Adobe but this issue is just one of a few annoying ones they constantly leave unanswered, and people like the original poster ask how to remove and instead of answering that question, Adobe (and others) tell him to keep it. But that wasn't his question....answer the man's question. Adobe has tons of users asking this because most DONT WANT TO KEEP OLD VERSIONS. Hard drive space is not THAT cheap, and there's no point in keeping old versions. None. Why would I ever need CS2? It would be taking up roughly 10 gigs a release x however many versions, PLUS all those hidden system files that build up enough and probably affect your computer's performance. No thanks. Just tell me how to clean out the old.
    But I do thank you for the link...I will check it out and see if that is the fix we're all looking for.

  • Cs5 / wrong presets folder , how can i fix it?

    hi
    on my laptop i have photoshop cs5 64bit , and i have a problem with preset folder
    when i try to save black and white adjustament layer , photoshop points to a wrong folder
    it points on my data partition
    how can i fix it?
    maybe a solution that is not a reset of all my preferences
    thanks

    Can you not just navigate to the correct preset folder in the save dialog?
    Photoshop has a habit of remembering folders you navigate to.  So the next time you save things like actions it saves the save path location.  The next time you save an action Photoshop will default to the location but you can navigate back to Photoshop Preset Actions folder and save there.
    I never save My actions into Adobe created folders.  Most of the stuff I add to Photoshop I save in my own folders not Adobe created folders.   Some things to I do let Photoshop save into Adobe default locations like my users preferences  additions like workspaces.  Adobe migration works well migrating those presets well.
    Thing l Photoshop like Scripts and Plug-in I maintain in my own file system trees and link to these from Adobe folders.  All versions of Photoshop share my files system threes.  The Are a few exceptions some third party add-ons are coded in such a way the will only work when installed into Adobe default locations for Plug-in and scripts.  I seem to need to keep more and more versions of Photoshop installed these days.  New versions get new features added and old features removed. You never know what will be removed these days.

  • I re-installed Firefox on my laptop; but other users did not get the program installed under their log-in; how do I fix this?

    I recently un-installed Firefox on my Windows Vista laptop; when I re-installed it, the program is only available to me (the administrator of the laptop); two other users are not able to use the program. I've tried "right-clicking" on the Firefox icon, clicking on Properties, then Security, and adding the two other users to the list, but after clicking on "apply" and then "OK", the other users still don't have access to the program. How do I fix this? Thanks!

    First and foremost, learn punctuation and capitalization so we can read what you're writing properly.

  • CC desktop app (OSX 10.7.5) doesn't show installed software any more. How can I fix this?

    Hi,
    Hope somebody can help with the problem I'm having this morning. After updating the Creative Cloud Desktop app for OSX, the CC Desktop app no longer shows my installed software (Photoshop 6 & CC, Fireworks CS6, Dreamweaver CC, Illustrator CS6 & CC, Flash CS6, Muse and Edge).
    How can I fix this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Tom

    Please go to Applications>> Utilities>> Adobe Installers and see if Photoshop uninstaller is there, if not then go to Photoshop folder in applications and check uninstaller there. Uninstall Photoshop and reinstall using CC app.
    If not, then download the cleaner tool from http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html and uninstall Photoshop and install it again.
    Thanks!

  • ITunes install error for windows! How do I fix?

    When I try to install itunes I get the following error:
    Error 1406. Could not write value to key \Software\Classes\.cdda\OpenWithList\iTunes.exe. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key or contact your support personnel.
    How do I fix this problem.
    Thanks!

    You may have a problem with your registry permissions.
    Sometimes creating another administrator account and installing from there may work around this.
    Apple have this article on the registry key mentioned in your error:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2294?viewlocale=en_US
    Otherwise try method 3 in this article:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/949377/en-us
    It is quite complicated to do, so follow the method carefully, the script can take quite a long time to run so be patient with it.

  • My iPhone doesn't appear on My Computer after iTunes installation, how do I fix it?

    Hello, I just installed the latest version of iTunes on my Windows 8 Developer Preview. Suddenly my iPhone disappear on My Computer. How do I fix it?

    sounds like your LCD is broken. Replacing it would fix your problem. If you're handy with mechanical things you can replace it yourself, there are plenty of video's online who show you how. Order the parts and do it yourself, or you can pay roughly $50-75 to have it replaced.

  • My iPad 2 lost all its music after normal sync How do i fix it?

    my ipad 2 lost all its music after a normal sync. how do i fix it?

    The first thing I'd do is check to be sure iTunes still has the music in it, assuming you bought the music through iTunes. If not, are you sure that the account you bought the music under on the iPad is the same account iTunes connects to the iTunes store with?

  • I need help!! My iPhone 4s lost contacts in messages after restore! How can I fix this?

    Earlier today I turned my phone off and back on...then I noticed that my contacts in my messages were not showing up, only the numbers. I tried to do a backup restore-- didn't work. I tried adding a +1 in front of all my contacts, that didn't work either. My contacts are still there, they are just not syncing with my messages. How can I fix this?

  • Uninstalling CS5 after CS5.5 upgrade

    Maybe my search-fu isn't what it used to be, but I couldn't find any definitive info on this:
    Can I safely uninstall the CS5 Master Collection applications after installing the CS5.5 upgrade on OS X? (Assuming I no longer wish to run the CS5 apps for whatever reason.) Both were installed from disc, and CS5 was my "qualifying product" for the upgrade.
    I know enough to use the uninstallers in the Adobe Applications folders, but I've seen (slightly dubious) anecdotal evidence to suggest that uninstalling CS5 apps after the 5.5 upgrade may actually botch 5.5. Can anyone confirm or deny this? What's the best practice?

    The components of the two versions are independent. You should have no problem uninstalling the older version.

  • Eclipse loses installed software after update. How to manage?

    Whenever eclipse gets updated with `pacman -Syu` I lose all my installed software. As you can imagine, this is really annoying because when I start eclipse there are zombie buttons in the UI that no longer do anything because those plugins aren't installed anymore (at least not from eclipse's point of view). I'm assuming those buttons appear in the UI due to some eclipse-auto-generated configs that remain in my workspace. Is there a way to upgrade and *not* lose installed software? (I'm talking about software installed using update sites within eclipse)
    EDIT: The only way that I know how to solve the problem is to remove the .metadata folder from my workspace then recreate my perspective layout from scratch, redo all my settings in preferences, and reinstall all the plugins I want. That's obviously not something I want to keep doing every time eclipse gets updated.
    EDIT: After reinstalling Spring MVC plugins eclipse crashes after startup. I tried downgrading to the previous version of eclipse from pacman's cache, reinstalled Spring MVC, and now it's still crashing.
