Installing AI CS5 after AI CS6

I do know that this is generally a no no... but just wondering if it's actually ok and won't cause problems. OS is Win7 Ultimate...

Doug, Larry... thanks for your replies.
Doug, I know both can be installed at the same time but you can't run them at the same time... if for no other reason but the licensing ones.
Larry, that's what I was afraid of. But just wonder here... the system that I'm looking to add AI CS5 on is 64bit and running only AI CS6 64bit and 32 bit is not installed. No, that wouldn't help... the libraries are common to both 32 and 64 bit...  Guess the safest would be to uninstall AI CS6, install CS5 and then reinstall CS6. PITA.... oh well...

  • Is it safe to remove Photoshop CS5 after installing CS6??

    Is it safe to remove Photoshop CS5 after installing CS6??

    It is safer to remove it before installing CS6.  There can be some shared elements and/or settings that might be compromised if you install CS6 while CS5 is installed and then remove CS5.

  • I can't launch After Effects CS6 on Maverick 10.9.4.  I tried uninstalling, re-installing and updating it

    After Effects 11 will not launch on Maverick 10.9.4
    I try to run the Update patch and it errors out as well:
    I've tried uninstalling After Effects and re-installing it with no success.

    Lilanthony what error are you receiving when installing the update?  You can find details on how to locate and interpret your installation log files at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.

  • Do I install both CS5 and CS6 upgrade or just CS6?

    PC fried by lightning. My CS5 was updated with CS6 upgrade. Must I install both or can I only install CS6?
    Thanks
    Callie

    You should only need to install CS6.  As part of the activation process after your CS6 serial number is accepted you will be asked to identify the qualifying version (CS5) and enter its serial number

    Here are some workaround/fix I tried to do:
    Uninstal and re-install.
    Uninstall, clear avery adobe product, remove paths and traces, relaunch, and then re-install.
    Same as step 2, with firewall turned off, Anti-virus removed.
    Run installation with Administrator rights.
    Launch program via Compatibility settines Vista, Vista SP1, Vista SP2, Windows 7
    All drivers are updated and reupdated.
    Re-installed all GPU drivers.
    Refreshed my Wndows 8 OS.
    Reformated my Windows 8 OS then Installed AE cs6.
    Installed AE on my F drive instead of C [C drive is an SSD and F Drive is an HDD]
    I am able to see the AE CS6 splash screen but it will prompt a message "Has Stopped Working".
    Other things to take note:
    I am able to launch Renderer Machine without any issues.
    I am also able to launch other Adobe Products that came along with AE CS6 try version.
    Latest Quicktime version is installed.

    Hi Todd,
    Thanks you for replying.
    After updating to 11.0.2, I am still unable to launch AE CS6.

  • After installing Adobe Premiere Pro product CS6 in the program is not active PlayBack

    After installing Adobe Premiere Pro product CS6 in the program is not active
    PlayBack button setting when creating sequence.
    Windows 7 64-bit. Intel Xeon 2, RAM 12 MB. Mxo2

    Hi,
    Thanks for posting that screenshot. It appears that you have opened your Sequence Settings for a DV-NTSC sequence and have made a circle around the "Edit Settings" button.
    Since you chose to create a DV sequence, you cannot change those settings.
    Do you have DV NTSC clips? If so, these are the correct settings.
    If you do not have DV NTSC clips, do not be concerned. Just create the sequence.
    Once you drag a non-DV clip into the DV sequence, it's OK.
    You have the option of changing the Sequence Settings to match those of your clip in a new dialog box.
    Click "Change Sequence Settings" in the dialog box.
    I hope that helps.
    Thanks,
    Kevin

  • Can't load previously installed Acrobat 9 Pro after my CS6 trial expired.

    Can't load previously installed Acrobat 9 Pro after my CS6 trial expired. Keeps asking to buy the trial version or license the software (in reference to the CS6 trial, even though I'm loading my own Acrobat 9 Pro from my CS4 Creative Suite I purchased and had previously installed--still installed to my knowledge...at least I never uninstalled it anyway, if that helps)
    Thank you!

    Yes. I have tried to repair it, but it still didn't work. I had to completely uninstall - reboot - then do a clean install. Works beautifully for a few weeks, then nothing.

  • After effects cs6 trial install errors

    Hello,
    I am trying to install the trial version of After effects cs6. I installed the entire cs6 master suite and everything worked except after effects. I tried again from the master suite and then with a separate after effects only installer(all from adobe's site) always getting the same results
    here is the error summary:
    I am trying to install on a new macbook retina, I had installed the CC trial but it has run out. maybe I need to uninstall Creative cloud, but all the other programs installed with no problems so i am not sure why its just after effects.

    Thanks so much for your help, but i am encountering some issues with the log. In the link you posted I was directed to look for the log in library>logs>adobe>installers and that the file would consist of the product name/install date and end in .log.gz
    However I can't find and file that meets this description or even an installers folder inside the adobe folder
    ^this is all that is in the adobe folder, and both these folders are empty.
    There is another folder called adobe downloads which contains these files
    which still don't really fit the description provided.
    am i doing something wrong? or should i look somewhere else?
    thanks again

  • After Effects CS6 stopped working after Mavericks install

    I started getting a - You cant use this version of the application "Adobe After Effects CS6 with this version of OS X 10.9.1 - You have Adobe After Effects CS6" 11.0 - all my other Adobe CS6 programs are working - photoshop, premiere, bridge ect. Is this a delete and re install or is there a way around this problem?

    You have to run the update for AE. You may have to use the uninstaller and then re-install. I'm guessing that this started after you ran an update for your OS.
    When you ask a question assume that we know nothing about your system or your history with that system. We can provide better help if we know if your system worked before, what changed, and anything else that pertains to your problem. Something as simple as an automatic update to your virus protection can kill another app.

  • 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.
