Lightroom CC installed - can I now remove Lightroom 5?

I've just downloaded Lightroom CC. Can I (or should I) now remove LR5? I have 5.4-5.7 and the update files use a lot of space on my hard drive. I use Windows 7 x64.
Thank you.

UPDATE: A friend on Facebook has given me his advice: "I uninstalled LR5 yesterday ...... seemed ok". I know him personally, and trust him so I took the plunge by removing LR5 (being careful not to uninstall LR CC!). I also used a utility program to clean up the registry and any lingering LR5 program files. One day on, and my new Lightroom CC is running just fine. Thanks to everyone who added support to my original question.

With itunes match live on my iOS devices, can I now remove all local music files from my PC to free up space? There's no need to keep it if it will always be in the cloud. Right?

Your library and media are located in your Music folder in a folder called iTunes. Delete the entire iTunes folder (and empty the trash). If you want to transfer it to another computer, make sure you copy it to a temporary drive first.
Did you use this computer to sync an i-device such as a phone?

Thank you for your answers, it helps me a lot.
But sorry for my ignorance. I understand how you mean it, but I don't know how to do it. I'm scared to lose the settings/edits of the images.

I've installed lightroom cc can i now delete lightroom 5 ?

I've installed lightroom cc can i now delete lightroom 5 ?

I'd advise against it on general grounds.
With other Adobe applications, like Photoshop, it is known to potentially cause a lot of problems. The uninstaller apparently has no concept of any later version still installed, and so it leaves behind many "empty" pointers to itself, rather than the later version. Effectively, it tells the OS that the application is simply no longer installed.
I don't know of any specific Lightroom issues, but I'm not going to try to find out. Uninstall in reverse version order, then reinstall.

I installed CS6 and now Lightroom doesn't show CS5 as an Edit option

I installed CS6 and now Lightroom doesn't show CS5 as an Edit option. CS5 is still installed on my computer. How can I add it to Lightroom Edit options?
Mac 10.6.8

You can add CS5 as an "Additional External Editor" on the External Editing Tab of the Preferences panel. See this screenshot, I have Photoshop CS5 as my prime editor, and have added CS3 as an additional external editor:
Then when you use "Edit In...." you'll see both options available..

I purchased Lr3 (disc) and never installed. I now have a Mac laptop, no disc drive. Can I install just using the serial

I purchased Lr3 (disc) and never installed. I now have a Mac laptop, no disc drive. Can I install it just using the serial #? If so how?

You can get a download for Mac at this link and then validate it with your serial number.
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4927
Note that LR3 was designed for OSX 10.5 or 10.6. It will run on 10.9 (Mavericks) but there may be some appearance differences to the sliders. But why not give the download a try. Otherwise you may be best to upgrade to LR5 or wait for LR6.

Had a new hard drive installed last month. now iphoto won't start up, popup says "you can't open the application iphoto because it may be damaged or incomplete. can this be repaired without going to the repair shop?

had a new hard drive installed last month. now iphoto won't start up, popup says "you can't open the application iphoto because it may be damaged or incomplete". can this be repaired without going to the repair shop?

What installed iPhoto there in the first place? Was it the same version of iPhoto that came with the Mac? Was iLife added at a later time from a Mac Box Set? You can selectively install iPhoto, and then apply the appropriate iLife update without taking it to the shop, after removing the application, or recover it from your backup.

Itunes won't install-"Apple Software Updates Can Not Be Removed"

Cutting right to the problem. I currently have quicktine 6.5 installed and working. iTunes was completely removed. When doing search, nothing shows up. In Add & Remove Programs, however, iTunes is still listed (37 megs). How do I get rid of it so I can re-install. When I try to install, I get message "Apple Software Updates Can Not Be Removed, Contact Administrator". When I try to upgrade Quicktime to 7.1, I get "An Older Version Of Quicktime Can Not Be Removed". I would like to completely remove all traces of itunes and then try to reinstall.
generic Windows XP

okay.
download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. use it to remove the Installation configuration information for iTunes, Apple Software Update, and QuickTime:
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
now use the following document as a guide to a manual removal of any leftover itunes and quicktime program files:
Removing iTunes and QuickTime for Windows
reboot the PC and try another itunes install. does it go through properly this time?

Installed CC 2014, now I can't uninstall the earlier versions. Duplicates of every app but InDesign. Help?

So I installed the CC 2014 apps, and didn't want the older versions. When I went to uninstall I got errors for everything but InDesign, so now I have duplicates I don't want and can't get rid of. Tried the cleaner tool, no dice.
Anyone else having this issue? Have any tips?
I spent an hour and a half fixing an InDesign update issue a couple nights ago with Adobe phone support, so I'm loathe to call again. But will if there isn't an available solution online.

Sgravesdesign if you have used the CC Cleaner Tool then please try the Microsoft Fixit Utility at Fix problems that programs cannot be installed or uninstalled to remove the additional entries.
Once done please try reinstalling. If you face additional installation issues can you please check your installation logs for error messages. You can find details on how to check your installation logs for errors at Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cc.html.

HT4623 On installing ios7 I inserted a password which has to be inserted every time the IPad is used. Can it be removed

On installing IOS7 I created a password. Now every time I use the IPad I have to insert the password. Do I have to suffer with this or can it be removed? Anyone know how to remove it?

Settings>General>Passcode Lock. Tap the arrow on the right in that field. Enter your passcode. In the next screen tap Turn off passcode. Enter your passcode again. That should do it.

I tried installing an update to QuickTime. An error occurred and it wouldn't install. I tried removing the QuickTime program, but a window appeared telling me that a fatal error ccurred during installation and I could not remove the program. Now what?

I tried removing the QuickTime program, but a window appeared telling me that a fatal error ccurred during installation and I could not remove the program.
I think we'd better see if some other application (other than QuickTime itself) has dropped old QuickTime componentry in the system files on the PC. (If there's a version mismatch between the old componentry and the "QuickTime proper" componentry, that can create those symptoms.)
So we'll go looking for the older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
First we'll need to change some view options on the PC.
1. Open My Computer from the desktop or Start menu.
2. In the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
3. Click the View tab.
4. In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders" make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected, and the "Hide extensions for known file types" option is unchecked.
5. Click OK.
Now in My Computer, open your C drive.
Open the "Windows" folder.
Open the "system32" folder.
What files and/or folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the file/folder name? (In a standard installation of QuickTime, you should see precisely two files ... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

Error 8062 when I try to copy or move files on my macbook: "This operation could not be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -8062)". Can even not install new software now!!

Since a few days when I try to copy or move files on my macbook, I often get an error message saying "This operation could not be completed because an unexpected error occured (error code -8062)". And then it just quits the copy or move.
I searched a lot on the internet, but only found solutions for cases you cannot empty the trash due to this issue.
I tried those solutions for my trash and that helped after some trying.
However, I still have the problem with copying and moving files.
I even cannot install new software now, as it has to copy itself to the programs-directory, and gives the same error-message.
Who can help me??
Cannot seem to find any info on it on the support-forums or elsewhere.
My user-account is administrator, I use a 13" Macbook Aluminium (Late 2008). Mac OS X 10.6.8 CPU 2Ghz Intel Core Duo, RAM: 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3.
Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Tips I received so far (thanks to A-Mac via Twitter http://www.a-mac.nl and Remco Kalf http://www.remcokalf.nl/)
- make sure you have at least 10% of your harddisk in free space (I had only 5%).
- do a PRAM-reset (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379)
- perform a hardware test (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1509)
- make a complete backup (with for example Carbone Clone Copier, see http://www.bombich.com/)
- after complete backup: use diskwarrior (boot from Diskwarrior DVD, first perform diagnostics, then perform "Rebuild" which rebuilds your file directory).
So far I only cleared up some space on my HD, and already the problem occurs less.
Still, I will go through the other tips too.
(will post progress)
