Installing cs6 on machine with cs4 installed

I have cs4 design premium installed on my machine I want to install CS6 design and web premium trial on the same machine will it mess up my cs4 install?

No, CS6 won't do anything to your CS4. However, be aware that there may be compatibiliuty issues. E.g. if the install replaces a globally used PDF library and CS4 can't handle it, exporting to PDF may not be possible in CS4 programs. Similarly, all file associations will point to CS6 after the install, meaning double-clicking a file will open it in CS6, not Cs4 and things liek invoking Bridge from one of the programs will also use the CS6 version. finally, you may experience issues when removing CS6 and the uninstaller removes a critical global component used by CS4 because it only thinks of its own stuff. So in summary: Within the limitations it will be safe and even if you let the trial run out without making a purchase, it would be best to leave CS6 on teh machine after that to avoid complications.

Is PP CS6 backwards compatible with CS4?

I am currently using Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 and am conidering upgrading to CS6 (because Adobe Media Encoder has irrevocably crashed on me--or so it looks!). What I want to know is, if I do upgrade, will I be able to open my CS4 projects in CS6?
Thanks for any and all feedback that can be offered here--including if there is any remedy to my AME crash!

I want to download the trial version of PP CS6 but, when I go to the Adobe website and attempt to do so, I'm directed to PP Creative Cloud which I do not want. Can I not simply download CS6 as I did CS4?

Installed CS6 trial but still want to open with CS4

I recently installed InDesign CS6 (Windows) as a trial, but I still want InDesign CS4 to be the default for opening documents. However, when I go to the Open As menu, ID CS4 does not appear. When I browse through Program Files and select C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS4\InDesign.exe, it points me to ID CS6. Which is incredibly annoying, since the program I selected was Definitely not CS6.
So is there a way to force Windows to associate indd files with CS4 instead of CS6 without uninstalling the trial?

You can edit the registry manually (there are directions in some other threads here, if you search), but that will cause trouble when you start working in CS6 since all of the new files will open with "Missing Plugin" errors that cannot be resolved since CS4 can't open files from anything newer.
I open the correct application first, then use File > Open... instead of trying to use a double-click, but you can purchase the Soxy plugin from Rorohiko.com which will intercept the open commands and automatically use the version from which the file was saved if it is installed.

Cannot install Photoshop CS6 ugrade to Photoshop CS4 on Windows 7 PC.

I cannot install Photoshop CS6 upgrade to Photoshop CS4 on my Windows 7 PC. Error reads - Serial Number you provided is valid, but a qualifing product could not be found on this computer. I then selected CS$ as the product and entered the serial number with Error - This serial number is not for a qualifying product. CS4 is currently running on the PC. Any advise?

If you recently purchased CS6 as an upgrade then the versions that qualify for the upgrade were reduced a couple years ago to only include CS5 and CS5.5. If you purchased CS6 a couple years ago while CS4 was still in the upgrade path then you should contact Adobe support using chat and see if they can help you get thru the activation.

Help - How to re-install/download Acrobat 9 - The one that comes with CS4

Hi I've got CS4. I upgraded to Creative Cloud CS6 for a year and cancelled. But when I upgraded to CS6 it installed a newer version of Acrobat. I no longer have my original version that came with CS4. Where can I get my previous acrobat back?
Thanks,
Debbie
<Removed by Moderator>

Thank you for your reply. Much appreciated. I had CS4 also loaded on my laptop and just copied the Acrobat file over. It's installed. Just need to contact Adobe and figure out why my serial number isn't working.
And to answer the other question. I had Acrobat XI Pro from the Cloud along with my CS6 subscription (also from the cloud) but when the price went up after the introductory period, I decided that the already paid for in full version of CS4 - along with Acrobat Pro - 9 was sufficient for my purposes.
Will definately reconsider at some point in the future. Thanks again and have a great day!
Cheers.

Install Captivate 4 on Windows 7 64-bit machine with Windows XP mode?

Hi,
I have been searching the web to find out the best way/place in which to load Captivate 4 on my Windows 7 64-bit machine. Seems some people have issues with recording, others don't. I have Windows XP mode on my machine.
My question is... what's the best way to load Captivate 4 on Windows 7 - should I install to Windows 7 and see how it goes. Or should I install under Windows XP mode?
Thank you!
Michele

Yea it works in XP mode

Try running Cp4 in WinXp compatibility mode on Win7. Also make sure
you're set to Run as Administrator.
I run Cp4 on Win7 without issues. But other users report similar problems
to yourself. In the end, it may or may not work for you because Adobe has
never claimed Cp4 was compatible with Vista or Win7 64bit.

Windows 7 64 bit machine with printer installed locally takes 2-3 minutes for printing most of the time and fails to print some time.

Our customer have 3-4 windows machines in local area network (No Domain Login) with different OS versions and platform architecture (32 / 64 bit)
I have no idea about the configuration of machine to which printer is hooked up but it is running Windows for sure.
This machine is accessible from any other machine in LAN. They have another machine running Windows 7 64 bit OS on which they have installed the printer connected to earlier machine using local printer driver installation
with local TCP/IP port being selected during installation. Installation goes well, printer gets installed successfully and shows ready state. but when we try to print anything on it takes 2-3 minutes to complete print job. They have tried
this on printers with couple of different model and make but the result is same delayed printing. They have also tried to install different printer drivers like HP printer model specific driver and HP universal driver too , but the result is
the same in all cases. earlier when they were using 32 bit XP machine with printer installed same way that they installed now for win 7 64 , there was no issue seen with regards delayed printing. is this a issue with windows 7 64
bit printing system ? or it has to do something with mixed and matched (32/64 bit )printer drivers running on different machines on LAN ?
I will try to get more information with regards to the machine to which printer is connected.In the mean please revert back to me if any one had face similar issue and able to resolve it successfully.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
Have you tried ping ip address of printer? and check if there exists any data lost in network connection. If your network connection is crowded, it can cause delay for printer.
Also, please attempt to disable all security software temporarily, such as antivirus, firewalls,etc and
clear all printer cache.
Locate to task manager, check the state of spoolsv.exe, including cpu and memory. If it has high cpu or memory usage, it may be caused by malware. Thus, you'd better to make a full scan with the latest anti-virus.

Trying to install a setup on a 64 bit machine with Windows server 2012 R2 which writes to registry FAILES

My msi is a 32 bit setup.
When I install it on a 32 bit machine with Windows XP it works fine .
I tried to install it on a 64 bit machine with windows server 2008 and it succeeds
While running my setup on a 64 bit machine with Windows server 2012 R2 it failes and I get the folloawing message:
"Registry object reference not set to an instance of an object"
Then the setup exits and leaves the app partially installed
I tried searching for known problems over the net, but found nothing
I will be happy to get some advice
Thanks
Liora

Sounds like you are trying to update a registry object that is not there.
Is this your own msi, or is it from a third party application? If third party, check with them to see if they support it on 2012 or if they have a known workaround.
If it is your own msi, sounds like it is time to debug it.

Can I install boot camp on a machine with a Software Raid-0?

I have a machine with a software Raid-0 running Snow Leopard. I'd like to install Boot Camp but I only have 2 SATA hard drives. Windows does not need to run in a RAID on this machine and I'm fine partitioning both drives so that I have a 30GB Windows 7 partition. Both drives are 500GB each.
Can I partition each drive with -30GB run a software raid and still use bootcamp?
Please let me know.

No, and 30GB is too small for Windows 7 64-bit Pro for your Mac.
Get a 3rd drive. Assuming this is a Mac Pro you have 4 internal drive bays.

Problem running web queries on machines with internet explorer 8 installed

Hello All,
We started noticing that a few of our users can no longer execute web queries in MS Excel spreadsheets created from .IQY files exported from Discoverer.
The users get the following error when they attempt to refresh data on their excel worksheet:
"The file could not be accessed. Try one of the following:
*Make sure the specified folder exists.
*Make sure the folder that contains the file is not read-only.
*Make sure the file name does not contain any of the following characters: < > ? [ ] : | or *
*Make sure the file/path name doesn't contain more than 218 characters."
Followed immediately by: "Invalid Web Query"
We believe that we've linked this issue to only occurring with users who've installed Internet Explorer 8, so I'm hoping that it could be some configuration setting that I could tweak, either in their internet settings or on the discoverer server.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? Does anyone have any suggestions?
FYI: Our discoverer server is version: 10.1.2.3.0 with CP4, and our clients are using JRE 1.6.0_12, the problem is occurring on my test machine with Excel 2003.
Thanks,
-Scott

After looking into this further I checked firewall settings in Panda A.V. For Firefox they were set to Custom settings which effectively disabled it. I changed setting to Outbound only like Internet Explorer and other programs and Firefox seems to work fine now. Hope this helps others who have experienced this problem. I have teenage children who use computer a lot (Face Book, etc.) so the root of the problem may have been Malware, Adware, or something else but hopefully Panda has taken care of this.

Mac Pro trapcode particular with Cs4 install problems

hi
im on mac with leo installed.I'm trying to install particular 1.5 with cs4 but no luck so far.
it just doesnt show up in AE effects panel any ideas?
thx

There is only one installer.
No, there isn't. If downloading the original ZIP file from Red Giant Software, it contains a set of sub-folders with different versions. CS4 is intel only. Unlike CS3 it does no longer support PPC code. Therefore any such plug-ins will not show up in CS4 unless you install the correct version, which is what you do when installing from the sub-folder I mentioned. So by all means, run that installer.

How to find using SQL query application deployed on win 7 machines with SCCM 2012 server or user installed manually.

Hi,
how to find using SCCM SQL query, application deployed on win 7 machines with SCCM 2012 server or user/technician installed manually. Please let me know.

Thanks, is it not possible via any script also?
Like Torsten said, how can you tell the difference between CM12 installed applications and locally installed? Once you can answer that, then you can write report.
