Need to uninstall old apps

Do you need to uninstall an old version of Photoshop (or any app) before downloading and installing the new one?
Or does the new one write over the old one? John

No, newer versions will never overwrite the old ones. feeel free to uninstall them, but as Jeff said, if you need specific instructions, you will have to tell us what versions they are on what system.

Do I need to need to uninstall old adobe flash before new version can be installed?

Do I need to need to uninstall old adobe flash before new version can be installed?

No, the Adobe installer will simply over-write the earlier version.

Can I uninstall old apps once I download the 2014 versions? Will all of my files will still be accessible?

I've downloaded the 2014 CC versions of InDesign, Ilustrator and Photoshop. I would like to delete the old programs to free up space on my hard drive. Will this affect any files that I made using the old apps?

Files will still be there... plugins maybe not

This messages says (at least some) CC 2014 programs use NEW plugins https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1499663
-so do not uninstall the older CC programs if you use plugins in your programs until you are sure you have plugins that work in CC2014
If you are sure you don't need the old CC programs

Do i need to uninstall old dreamweaver?

Installing Dreamweaver CC 2014.1 via SCCM. Do I need to have old Dreamweavers uninstalled first from the machines?

No, you do not have to uninstall old versions.

Need to uninstall CC apps in order to reinstall in the chosen language.

I have Creative Cloud Installed on my Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bits, with several programs like PS, FL and AE, the problem is: I need to uninstall some of them to be able to re-install using the English Language (apparently I can't do this just by switching an option on the Settings Panel for each one of them, wonder why...) Anyway, I also don't see any option on Windows Control Panel to uninstall any of the software, I only see the Creative Cloud Icon to uninstall. Also, i see people talking about Application Manager to do stuff, but I can't find it either. Kinda lost here. Any advices?

Hi guys,
here is the conclusion of the solution.
Apparently if you Install the CC Apps in a drive that is not the default, two things happens:
1) Your apps do not show in the Programs and Features panel
2) Your installed Apps do not show on the "Your Apps" of the Creative Cloud Widget, it thinks they are not installed at all., despite offering updates for them.
Now, regarding the language:
Yes, its possible to change the language for your apps, but before that you have to Install the Creative Cloud for Desktop, select the desired language, RESTART YOUR SYSTEM and only then you can install your apps in the chosen language. If you try to change the language after you have installed any program, only the new ones will be in the chosen language.
Now, I'm less frustrated and not angry anymore, but I think It would be a good Idea for Adobe to check this info that i gave at least regarding the issue about the install location, and tell members how to proceed, it would avoid a lot of frustrations.
Cheers,
Ronaldo

Do I need to uninstall old versions of creative suite

i have all my previous versions of creative suite still in my system. should i uninstall them every time i upgrade?

No need. They can happily co-exist on your hard drive since they all install into their own separate folders.
It's entirely up to you if you want to uninstall them.

Do I need to uninstall old Download manager exe (Akamai?) file from past trial to install new one?

I just purchased CS5.5 Design Premium (student edition) at Amazon. Everything went smoothly while validating that I am a student. I installed the 1st of 2 disks. Second one won't install.
The PDF help sheet says to look for DesignPremium_CS5_5_LSx.exe in my program files to extract the files from the second disk, but its not in there.
Since I purchased this at Amazon, even though I have the correct serial number, I can't re-download the manger.exe file from Adobe because it is not in MyOrders at the Adobe store.
Perhaps it could be because last semester I downloaded different trials, I think Master Suite 5.5 and maybe Flash 5, but I can't remember for sure.
When this problem surfaced over the weekend, I went back and tried to uninstall all the trial stuff (they don't work anymore anyway), but still no luck.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer

You can always download the trial and input your serial. Other than that I'm sure there is a way to get your downloads from Amazon, you will probably just have to contact their customer support to unlock it again so it's available from your account there...

Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
(If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

Do I need to uninstall apps when getting service for a new hard drive?

My second (home) computer is part of Apple's defective hard drive recall. Do I need to uninstall my creative cloud apps before I take it in to get the new hard drive, or will they just get wiped and then can I install again when it comes back with the totally new hard drive?

Launch one of the installed applications, for example Photoshop and from the Help menu choose Deactivate. This will deactivate all of the applications installed via Creative Cloud.

I have tried everything I know to retrieve the iPhoto Library app. I detest this new Photo app, which obviously wasn't designed with photographers in mind. I desperately need help in retrieving the old app and have not been able to do it so far.

I have tried everything I know to retrieve the iPhoto Library app. I detest this new Photo app, which obviously wasn't designed with photographers in mind. I desperately need help in retrieving the old app and have not been able to do it so far. I have gone to my app folder and tried to update my iPhoto Library. I have gone to my trash and brought it over to my desktop and still cannot use it. Please help!

Try this fix discovered by User photosb189:
From Finder, hold down the option key on your keyboard and click on the Go menu at the top of the screen
Select Library from the drop down menu
Then navigate to Application Support > iLifeAssetManagement > assets
Right click on the 'sub' folder and choose Compress
Drag the resulting zip file to your Desktop (as a backup)
Go to your System Preferences and choose iCloud
Turn OFF the iCloud Photos option
Go back to Library > Application Support and DELETE the iLifeAssetManagement folder
Now, in System Preferences, turn the iCloud Photos option ON
iPhoto should now be able to launch. Give it enough time to re-download your Photo Stream content. if you are missing any of your My Photo Stream photos (more than 30 days old), unzip the sub folder on your desktop and drag that into iPhoto.

Need a printer for my old iBook (old apps won't translate) but also for a MacBook Pro, 10.6.8! Anything compatible?

Need a printer for my old iBook (old apps won't translate) but also for a MacBook Pro, 10.6.8! Anything compatible?

If I understand this correctly, you wish to print from the iBook under Mac OS 9.2.x and from the MacBook Pro under Mac OS X 10.6.8 (no AppleTalk support in the latter).
What type of printer did you have in mind? Does it have to be colour? Otherwise, a monochrome laser printer may be the best choice (high print quality and a low per page cost). A networkable PostScript printer may be the most compatible. Additional information would make it easier for someone here to suggest a solution.
If you would be willing to accept some extra work and certain limitations, another way could possibly be to "print" to a PDF file on the iBook via a printer driver called PrintToPDF, and then transfer this file to the MacBook Pro and carry out the "real" printing there.

Your system is not working. No one has replied, yet you are asking me to reply.

Do I need to uninstall the old version 5.7

After the version 6 is installed do I need to uninstall the old version 5.7. After the install I imported a job's photos and realized they had imported to the 5.7 install.

Hi Pete,
Lightroom 5 & 6/CC both are individual applications and can be installed simultaneously, unless you don't need them.
So, in short the answer is Yes you can uninstall the old version in case you don't need it.
Cheers!
