Multiple licenses between cs3 and cs5

I have cs 3, I think design and web, the point is I have Dreamweaver CS3, from a while ago, and recently I installed CS5 Design, which doesn't come with Dreamweaver. Now my DW cs3 is now deauthorized. I would rather get this up and running, Is there a trick to getting this work, or will it not work. Can I run multiple licenses on the same machine for different cs versions. This was not an upgrade to cs5, but a new install. If I'm screwed, which is unfair, can I buy CS6 DW as a astand alone or will this jerk around my cs5?

Yes sorry it was really late last night and I just wanted to start the discussion before I went to sleep, I only slept 2 hours the night before. I'm looking for the CS3 installers and I'm trying to remember what they called the suite back then because I thought they changed the name, It was actually called CS3 Design Premium. What I have now is CS5 Design standard. With CS6 they actually change the names a bit. When I find the installers for CS3 I was thinking that I might try reinstalling. They are both seats that were bought for me with volume pricing through my company. I am trying to get in touch with my IT guy at work to just give me the right seat, but I'd be fine if the both worked. We do have the licenses for two different type of seats, premium and standard, or their cs 6 name equivalents.
Should I try reinstalling?
Thanks.

File compatibility between cs3 and cs5

Hi,
What are the compatilibity issues between Photoshop CS3 and CS5? Can they be used together without much (if any) issues?
Thanks.

They can happily coexist on the same system, as long as you've got the disk space. Photoshop has always been like that.
You'll only be able to run one at a time, at any given instant, though.
Regarding file compatibility, I don't how much it's required to open a file in Photoshop CS3, but the newer version does offer a "Maximize Compatibility" preference setting for saving .psd files. On occasion I've opened .psd files in Photoshop CS3 saved by CS5 (using the aforementioned setting) and I haven't seen any issues at all.

Fonts different between CS3 and CS5 on Win7 system using the same fonts directory

I have several files created in Fireworks CS3 that work fine. Fonts are all installed in the system directory on my Win7 box. This used to be a WinXP Pro box.
I can load a file into Fireworks CS3 without a single issue and the text all looks perfect. The way it should. Close CS3, open CS5 and load the same file and CS5 tells me I have to update my fonts. Why? Same system, same fonts in the same fonts directory. Only thing that's changed is that I'm opening the file(s) in CS5.
The fonts do not look the same in CS5. Am I going to have to redo every Fireworks CS3 file so that it looks correct in CS5? If so, why?
-- Bob
Here's a sample image the way it's supposed to look. The Swift gets hosed. PlazaDUtil is the font. I'd hate to have to redo all my logo files.

Prior to CS4 Fireworks used the Macromedia type engine. From CS4 forward, adobe introduced the adobe type engine to improve text handling/integration between FW AI and PS. As a result moving CS3 files over to cs4 forces FW to update the fonts.

I have CS3 and CS5 on my Mac, can I safely delete CS3 now that I am upgrading to CS6?

This may seem like a paranoid question, but better safe than sorry...
I currently have both CS3 and CS5 (Production Premium) loaded on my Mac laptop. I just got the upgrade to CS6 today.
I really don't need/use CS3 anymore, so I am wondering if it is OK for me to delete CS3 applications from my computer. I just don't want to accidentally delete something that my CS6 upgrade (or even CS5) might need.
Any thoughts?
Just trying to be extra careful here before I delete anything...

Dont worry uninstall CS3 , it would not harm your CS6 , As I said Uninstall it properly do not delete it

Will CS3 and CS5 run on new Macs?

I need to run Indesign and Photoshop in both CS3 AND CS5. Will they run on a new Mac Pro OS? Do I need Rosetta? I hear it will work on Lion OS 10.6, but not the upcoming Mountain Lion OS 10.7. True?

Bob writes:
I would also say that it would be best to do a clean install of Mountain Lion if you’re not buying a new machine with it preinstalled. O/S upgrades are a crapshoot and if you’ve already done one or two upgrade installs you have a lot of left over crap on that drive.
It's worth a reminder that reasonable people disagree on this point.
In my considered opinion, the immense hassle of attempting to preserve all your customizations and to reinstall all of your 3rd party software is huge, and and generally that administrative pain (and risk) is not offset by the potential elimination of potentially unknown and poorly-understood problems.
Further, unlike in the Windows world, the general expectation in the Mac community (that is, among users, among developers, and from the Vendor--Apple) is that you will do the migration. This means the migration is that path that is tested and it tends to work pretty well. This is not to say that migrating is expected to be more reliable than a clean installation (though when we start to talk about the reliability of "getting work done," which involves the reliability of applications and availability of your data, that is very different question than the reliability of the base operting system, with no additional software).
So choose carefully, and whatever you do, keep a backup.

Difference between CS3 and CS4 when placing images, percentage not kept

There is some kind of difference between CS3 and CS4 when placing images. The images I've dealt with right now were vector images but it might apply to all kinds of images.
When replacing an existing image, the CS4 behaviour is to let the image fill up the frame. In CS3 the percentage was set to 100% as default (the % you see when selecting the image, not the container).
Also when replacing an impage in CS4, the "inner" image frame is kept, while in C3, the percentage was kept.
Is there some kind of placement preferences / settings to let CS4 act the same wat as CS3 did, when placing an image?
-- Andreas

Yes, the behavior was changed in CS4 (and many users, like me, prefer the new system).
If you click and drag a loaded image place cursor the entire image will be be scaled to fit the proportionally drawn frame -- a huge timesaver if you mostly place uncropped art. If you want 100% of the image at 100% scale, just click and release -- same as before, or as before you can pre-draw a frame and place into it and your image will come in cropped at 100% (unless you've changed the fitting options for the frame before placing).

Compatability between CS4 and CS5 Flash?

Hi
I'm working off CS4 and using mainly Premiere Pro. I'm also using Photoshop, Flash, Soundbooth from CS4 and using files from those applications in Premiere Pro. All good so far. My projects have a few layers but really nothing too complicated.
I work with someone who will eventually create the flash elements of our projects. To do this the company ordered further licenses for CS4 but we received CS5 instead.
If she loads CS5 onto her computer and creates Flash files (CS5) that I then use in Premiere Pro CS4, will it be compatible?
Also, if I want to then adjust that CS5 flash file in Flash CS4, will that work, or will I encounter problems?
Should we go with the CS5 or try and get another copy of CS4 for the new computer? (My computer needs to stay CS4)
Thanks

So as far as Premiere is concerned you are importing Quicktime MOV files from Flash?
When you import MOV files into Flash they are frame-by-frame animations taking up frames on the timeline, either on the main stage or in a Movie Clip. There is a limit in Flash in general to the number of frames you can have in a single animation, something like 16000 or 12000 frames. Depending on your fps this could be a relatively short or longer amount of time that the animation will play. I don't think there will be as many issues importing and exporting between Premiere Pro and Flash as there are with Flash CS4 and CS5 itself. TLF is a framework for laying out text (Text Layout Framework) which allows you some functionality of InDesign-style text-box layouts such as multi-columns, tracking and kerning, etc.

Can you run Photoshop CS3 and CS5 on the same system?

I did this before on another system where I had both CS2 and CS3 installed and I could run either version when I wanted. Back then I just never bothered to uninstall CS2.
Now on this system I'm tunning CS3 and I have some plug ins I use regularly that aren't compatible with CS5 and I don't want to lay out the cash again for them. So I'd like to be able to install CS5 and use it primarily but when I need to use the plug ins then just switch to CS3.
I've noticed many programs these days won't run on top of another version. So is there any reason I won't be able to run both?

Absolutely. All versions of Photoshop can coexist simultaneously, though you can only run one at a time.
It's usual not to install the old version until you're sure the new one is working great. If you have the space, never uninstall it. It's handy to have it around for answering questions, here for example.

Need help with XML Compatibility between CS3 and CS4

I'm not a Dreamweaver guru but I am hoping someone will recognize my issue and be able to provide meaningful feedback.
Background:
A developer buddy and I are working together to create a new home page for an online retailer that utilizes flash banners. We're using XML to update the content of the banners. My buddy is creating the XML file and sending it to me to populate with content (i.e. descriptions, images, image paths, etc.). He is creating the XML file in CS3 and I am editing in CS4. Here's the issue: Whenever he uploads the populated XML file to the server the banners are displayed correctly. If I take the same file and upload it without editing, it works great. However, if I open the file, edit and resave before uploading to the web server, the the banners all have extra spaces between each line of content - almost as if it were double spaced. If you look at the code, the code looks fine. In fact, the code looks exactly like it did when my buddy sent the file to me. I believe we have isolated the problem to something weird with my installation of DW. I have downloaded and installed any and all updates. Oh yeah he's using a MAC version and I am using the PC version of DW.
Has anyone seen anything like this before???
Help...

Thank you for your response.
The code is listed below and to tell you the truth the following code is both good and bad. As I mentioned before, if my buddy sends me this xml file and I upload it to the server, it works fine. If I open the file and immediately save it without making any changes then upload it, I experience the previously described promblem. It's very strange. The code in both files is identical.
To get a clearer picture of what I am describing, go to http://www.everythingministry.com/beta3.htm. The book descriptions appear correctly under the "New and Recommended" tab. However, whenever I edit any one of the six xml files that control the content for each of these tabs it ends up looking like what you currently see under the "New Music" tab. I have actually tried to update from 2 different machines running DW CS4.
Below are the xml files for the two tabs I referenced in the paragraph above:

A question about a difference between CS3 and CS6 (sorry if it's wrong addressed)

When I place in InDesign (both CS3 and CS6) a transparent tif image (CMYK) there is a difference between those created in Photoshop CS3 (correct) and CS6 (white background). Why?

EDIT: With the new InDesign CS6 update (8.1) Photoshop CS6 tifs with transparency import correctly now. Thank you

Installation/uninstall issues between CS4 and CS5

I had CS4 installed. I purchased CS5 (downloaded it) installed that. When I got the disks via mail, I tried to install that version (disk version). I started having issues as to which program would open a .prproj file. Often the CS4 version of Premiere Pro opened. Not what I wanted. I eventually uninstalled CS5 entirely and then reinstalled. Then things were working fine. However, I then tried to uninstall CS4. (I have seen from numerous posts/comments to leave both on -- which I really don't know why. Doesn't make sense to keep both versions). I prefer not to have an extra 4GB of space used for programs I am no longer using. However, in doing so, the uninstall didn't appear to do a perfect job. And now I can't double-click a .prproj file. This icon is also blank white. I went into Set Associations and I can't assign .prproj to Premiere CS5. In looking at the Open With window, I notice that some of the icons for other Adobe programs are all splewy (Adobe Encore is using the CS4 icon, Adobe Illustrator is using the PDF icon, Flash Catalyst is using the Air icon, etc.)
I could: a) uninstall everything, including Adobe Acrobat Pro (which I had purchased and installed prior to CS4 or CS5) and then reinstall everything -- sheesh that would take a while; or b) I could ask my friends here to explain and guide me!

Hi Stix, Thanks.
I am not so positive that there is no difference between the download version vs the media version specifcially because in downloading the updates, the site demands you choose your update depending on how your software was installed. I figured that the download would be smaller. Perhaps you are right. And maybe it is the same, in either case, when I get a stack of disks, I tend to think there is more on the disk and the download version is merely the core applications.
Anyway, I had to uninstall everything CS4 and CS5 and then reinstall CS5. Oddly, this didn't automatically fix my problem. However, at least I was able to choose Premiere CS5 to open .prproj files and check off the box to use it as the default. (I wasn't able to before). So now it works!

CS3 and CS5 versions incompatible?

Hi I have Adobe Premiere CS3 and Bridge CS5.1. When I select Browse in Premiere nothing happens and the Bridge is not launched. How can I link the two programs?

Most likely, you may not... Bridge is part of a suite, and is designed to work with the other products in that suite... you need to use Premiere Pro CS5 (CS5.5 ???) to work with Bridge

Multiple address between CRM and IS Retail

Hi Gurus,
In CRM we are maintianing multiple address function for 1 BP but Retail does not has, how to link it between CRM and Retail?
regards
Kannan

Hi All,
The major thing is we should not use ISU as stativ and CRM dynalic system. As we all aware When SAP is launching any module or technology its beleives in re-usabilty.
Now the issue data replecation between CRM and ISU-
1. In a utility market if the customer,retailer and the network operator initiate any business flow they should start with CRM as CRM is handling FOP part.It means CRM has not only build only for ISU.
2. In ISU before billing so many things is getting triggered - like new connecion,transfer,move-in,move-out etc....these process cant be done with the CRM business module as I mentioned earlier CRM is not only designed for IS-U
So for a smoother process and with proper business SAP introduced CRM IS-U.
Without replacting the data between CRM and IS-U we cant process the steps which will at last billed a customer.
Regards.

Whats the difference between CS3 and CS4?

I am currently using Dreamweaver CS3 and am curious about CS4
enhancements. What features are new in CS4? Is it worth the money
to upgrade?

I read the above feature list without getting the answer. So
I went to the next step and downloaded the CS4 trial version. My
first impressions was: -"Where is everything? It is all grey, no
functions maybe?.
But that was not the case it was just a matter of new user
interface. One very nice touch was a drop down where it was
possible to select if you wanted "Classic" design look, which then
was similar to CS3. But it was also possible to chose "Coder" and
all the design stuff was minimized and the code window expanded.
Quite nice actually.
Well, I may put in some more comments later, when I have had
some time to play with CS4, but I wanted to post a second link to
"Whats New" and more importantly, what is removed;
For
new features...
...and for old removed ones:
quote:
Deprecated features
The following features have been deprecated for Dreamweaver
CS4:
- Timelines
- Web services
- Layout mode
- Site Map view
- Java Bean support
- Adobe® Flash elements (Image Viewer)
- Adobe® Flash text and Adobe® Flash buttons
- ASP.NET and JSP server behaviors and recordsets

Display Performance Difference between CS3 and CS4

I have a computer running CS3 and a computer running CS4. When I place an image in InDesign CS3, it looks way better than when I place it in CS4. The display performance for both computers are set exactly the same. Raster and Vector images are set to proxy, transparency is set to medium quality, Anti Aliasing is turned on.
The CS4 computer:
Processor Name: Dual-Core Intel Xeon
Processor Speed: 2.66 GHz
Number Of Processors: 2
Memory 4GB
System Version: Mac OS X 10.5.8 (9L31a)
CS3 computer:
Processor Name: PowerPC G5
Processor Speed: 2 GHz
Number Of Processors: 2
Memory 4GB
System Version: Mac OS X 10.5.8 (9L31a)
What am I missing? It is virtually every image.

"You can adjust the quality of the the display itself without altering the name of the setting."
Tried that. The end result is viewing images at the higher quality that slows down the machine.
"Also, the size and resolution of images plays a role in how large the previews are, and their quality."
The difference is very noticeable when the exact same image is placed at the exact same sizes in InDesign CS3 and CS4. Everything in the workflow remained the same, except the changing of InDesign files.
