Photoshop CC and 64-bit Versions

I just installed Photoshop from the Creative Cloud Desktop application and after it installed, I noticed that I had two versions, one named "Adobe Photoshop CC" and another named "Adobe Photoshop CC (64-bit)". What is the purpose of having two versions? Is it nescessary to have both or should I uninstall one to save storage? If it helps, I have Photoshop(s) on a Surface Pro Tablet with 128 GB.

They support both 32 and 64 bit operation so as to give you maximum compatibility with older 32 bit-only plug-ins you may have.
If you have no older plug-ins you might want to use, you could conceivably just have the 64 bit variant.

X64Camera Raw and 32 bit version of Photoshop

Weird question I know
Here is my question - Cs5 installed both 32 and 64 bit version on my Win 7 x64 installation.
Now, some of the plugins are not yet x64 compatible. What I want ACR to do is to open the files in the 32bit version of CS5 when clicking on "Open Image/s"
How can one set this in ACR??
Many thanks

Alternatively you can launch ACR from Bridge which will also open the 32-bit version of Camera Raw.
I don't believe this is correct, Jeff. In my experience (and many others), the default is 64-bit PS when opened in the sequence Bridge>ACR>PS.
There are scripts floating around the web that will modify the Registry so that ACR will default to 32-bit PS. Some people also claim that using file associations to specifically link image files to the 32-bit PS (inside of Program Files(x82) will also work although I have not had luck with that method myself.
I will check later to see if I can find some example scripts. In the mean time, perhaps someone will beat me to it. I believe they have been included in posts here in the Adobe forums - if not here in Adobe Camera Raw, perhaps the main PS forum.
I was a little disappointed when Adobe didn't include some kind of switch or utility to handle this in CS5 since it has been an annoyance since CS4 and is still a bother for many people who have filters that don't work in 64-bit.

Why 32-bit and 64-bit versions coexist?

Hello
I am using 64-bit windows 7 machine and have master collection CS5.
When I install CS5, I notice both 32-bit and 64-bit versions are check. If I install 64-bit PS, would the 32-bit program be useful at all?

TWAIN (for scanning) is probably the main 32 bit only plugin which affects most people

Lenovo Provides 32 bit and 64 bit versions of VISTA & 7 by recovery media for FREE BUT HOW???

Lenovo advertises this title:
When is it possible to switch between 32 bit and 64 bit versions of Microsoft Operating Systems by using recovery media?
In this page:
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-74752.html
BUT
Doesn’t give any info that how??? I
How do I contact a Lenovo Support Centre to place an order. Link brings you to contact numbers for Lenovo and after I call them they say these numbers are for IBM and it is only for hardware support.
I am wondering got know how on earth they accept orders for this type of complex issue by phone???
Specially that I am dealing with so special situation and I need some e-mail address to describe it Lenovo and wait for the answer...
I appreciate it if somebody could help me with this...
Thanks in advance for your help guys...

Awesome dude,
Thanks for well described reply. I enjoyed it specially when I found out you don't work for Lenovo.
I am curious to know something. I could buy Windows 7 Bit for a very good price form Microsoft offers for university students that it probably cost me the same price as recovery media. Do you think it is a good idea to install a totally fresh windows 7 (NOT from the recovery media) on my t400s?
I am asking this because when you install operation system with provided recovery Media it builds another partition
with this name SERVICEV003 that is about 2 Gb and contains system files and stuff related to my laptop. I am afraid if I install windows without using recovery media but using Microsoft original DVDs then my laptop doesn't function properly?
What is your idea about this issue,
Thanks again for all your help, I appreciate it,
Cheers,
Mehrad

Need assistance to update Photoshop cs6 and Lightroom to version 2014. Please help!

Need assistance to update Photoshop cs6 and Lightroom to version 2014.
I have a Mac. I am not a member in Creative Cloud, invested big and bought CS6 and LR in the beginning of last year.
Please help!

These are not updates (just as CS6 was not an update to CS5), but upGRADES. They are available to CC (Creative Cloud) subscribers. While in the past you might have been able to pay for an upgrade (e.g. CS5 to CS6) you now have to subscribe. Once you are a subscriber you can upgrade to each new version as it comes along.
As well as the full CC subscription there is a $10/mo plan with only Photoshop and Lightroom. Creative Cloud Photography plan | Adobe Creative Cloud

Hi jeri-de,
If you are using a 64 bit computer you can install just the 64 bit program else install only the 32 bit version.

Makefile for building 32 and 64 bit versions of a driver/app

Does anyone have good example Makefile that can build both a 32bit and 64bit version on device driver and userspace programs? I'm using gcc and gmake to build a streams module and some user space utilities for both 32 and 64 bit x86 and Sparc architectures. I currently have a bunch of taget specific make files, but I know there must be a better more elegant way of doing this. Ideally I would like to build both the 32 and 64 bit versions for the running architecture with the same make command. I don't need to cross compile (ie. build sparc on x86 ).

Yes, with Creative Cloud you will have both 32 and 64 bit versions installed. 32 bit is useful in cases when you have a plugin that only supports 32 bit, not 64 bit.
You might check below forum discussion as well.

32 bit and 64 bit versions of Smartview

Does anyone know how to add two different versions of the smartview downloadable file to the Tools->Install (Dropdownd Menu) in HFM's workspace. Basically, I want to have available the 32 and 64 bit versions of Smartview for downloading directly from within HFM's workspace, apparently it does not like loading executables, and we do not have a common repository.
Help will be greatly appreciated.

Installed CS5 64 bit and 32 bit versions; Uninstall 32 bit?

I inadvertently installed both the 32 bit and 64 bit versions of CS5 when I should have only installed the 64 bit version. Can I saftely uninstall the 32 bit version? If so, do I need to de-activate it first?
Thanks,
Don

Don't be too hasty – a lot of users have found they need both, because not everything works in 64-bit.

How to load both 32 bit and 64 bit version of addon on same machine

Hi,
When deploying an addon using SAP Business One Extension Manager, how can we install both 32 bit and 64 bit version of the addon for same machine?
If the OS is 64 bit, SAP allows to install and use both 32 bit SBO client and 64 bit SBO client. I want that when the 32 bit SBO client is used, my 32 bit addon should get loaded, and when 64 bit client is used, my 64 bit addon should get loaded.
But the SBO Extension Manager loads the addon for a given company; there seems to be no option to specify different addon files for 32 bit and 64 bit.
Is there a way?
Thanks.

Hi Rajesh,
There might be the problem while creating the add-on.
It is the system behavior that once you login to 32 bit SAP Client, you can use only 32 bit Add-on. Means 32 bit add-on will be loaded automatically.
Same is in the case of 64 Bit.
What you have to do is:
If OS is 64 Bit and you have installed both 32 and 64 Bit SAP Client then once open 32 bit client and install only 32 bit add-on
Then open 64 Bit SAP Client and install only 64 bit add-on.
By doing this you will be able to use 32 bit add-on on 32 bit SAP Client and vice versa.
Hope it helps.
Thanks & Regards

If you are on windows computer, navigate to Control panel > Programs and features.
Then Locate the Adobe products and right click on it, then choose uninstall.
In the uninstaller window you may uncheck 64 bit and uninstall only 32 bit, may also do wise versa.

Can 16 and 32 bit versions of VISA exist on the same computer?

We have an application that we need to utilize both 16 and 32 bit versions however we are having problems with the 16 bit version reporting (no) VXI instruments through viFindRsrc - even though Resman reported the existance of such cards. Any ideas? Thanks

Just to answer this old question in case anyone else comes looking for the same thing: no, the 16-bit libraries use a different mechanism for getting information from Resman and the kernel drivers than the 32-bit libraries, so the information needed for the old libraries will not be present when using the new Resman and kernel driver. Since you can only have one driver installed, if you are using the 32-bit driver and Resman, the 16-bit library will not find any devices.

Photoshop CS4 - How to install both 64 and 32 bit versions on XP 64

Hello-
When I installed Photoshop CS4 along with the other apps on CS4 Web Premium I thought that both versions of PShop would be installed by default, but that was not the case with my installation; only the 64 bit version was installed.
Now I would like to install the 32 bit version but when I try to do it through setup I am unable to check the box. There is a list of "Installed Products" and then "Available Products"; the only thing under "Available Products" is Photoshop CS4, but I am unable to check the box.
Any ideas on how I can install the 32-bit version? I want it for the GPU acceleration and to use certain plugins.
Thanks,
Paul

a)re: built for XP64 - note that I said "gave the [erroneous] impression," meaning that someone could plausibly infer that PSCS4 64 will not run reliably on XP 64, which is categorically untrue. I am NOT saying that there are not people who have had problems and will continue having problems with PS CS4 on XP 64.* However, I am personally attesting - having worked with PS CS on my XP 64 system a lot since buying it this week, including continuously since I reinstalled last night ( I tend to work at night) - that PS CS4 runs gloriously on XP 64, INCLUDING the OpenGL stuff once you patch the reg via the link I posted (which, by the way, would have been a valid answer to my question).
On that note, telling me stuff that I already know is NOT a valid answer. Further, as we have seen, my running this on XP 64, as opposed to Vista, was irrelevant, if only (but not really only) because that is not the system to which my question referred. How did telling me about Vista help? If you don't know what to do with XP 64, then you don't know....I didn't know either, at least when I posed my question. Your reference to Vista was POINTLESS.
b) re: installing to non-default directory. I have been doing this for so long that I can't remember not doing it, and I have never, ever had a problem like this, and I do have other dual-bit depth apps. This should be a non-issue. If I thought it was relevant I would have mentioned it, but in light of what I just said, it did not seem to be a factor. Crikey- CS3 is in that same directory! Why would Adobe's installer get confused? They are the same structures, i.e. %disk%:\Program Files, %disk%:\Program Files (x86). If you knew things that might cause my problem - you didn't-you might have asked about my install.... Instead, you told me what anyone who had read my question would already know that I knew, namely that there would be two different locations for the two different versions. Incidentally, and here's good intel here, when you do get them both installed, you get BOTH versions listed in your Adobe CS4 whatever edition programs folder. Right there! So, if you had known what you were on about, you would have realized that there was NO WAY that PS 32 was mysteriously hiding somewhere. This is another clue that you knew nothing about the subject you were purportedly answering!
So why, why, why am I picking on you? Because there was a time when you could post a simple question on the internets and some helpful soul would take the time to actually read and consider the question before giving an answer that, even if not ultimately fruitful, was at least in the freaking ballpark. But those days are gone** and even though I know that and I expect nothing, I posted anyway, and along came you, with two heaping helpings of SQUAT in terms of useful advice. What the hey? Are you that bored that you just dole out crappy advice? Watch more TV or something!
Jeez!
Thanks,
Paul
*My relevant system specs are as follows, for those who may want to give XP 64 a shot: and/or are having problems:
XP 64 SP2 ( there is no SP3 for 64 and parenthetically I will note that CS4 on XP 32 SP2 runs fine even though you get a warning on install that it is supposed to have SP3 installed)
8 GB RAM
AMD 64X2 5600 on AMD/ATI 780G Chipset with dual integrated ATI 3200 Graphic plus an extra ATI 3400 card running three different monitors (2 on the 3200 and one on the 3400). On my setup PS likes to enable and actually work with the OpenGL stuff when I launch either/or the 64 or 32 bit version on the monitor that is attached to the 3400 card. After that I can drag the app anywhere I want and it works.
** in July, as myself and my girlfriend were getting ready for our vacation, we posted on a location-specific travel group to ask if people knew if the hotel we were staying at had a safe for our laptop. We got like thirteen responses, all more or less to the effect that we should leave the laptop at home when we go on vacation. Not ONE answer about the hotel! WTF???

Why is my Photoshop CS4 not installing both 64 and 32 bit versions?

Hello,
I'm running Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit.
I purchased and downloaded Photoshop CS4 Extended and it installed as a 64 bit program. Now I need a 32 bit version also (for some Nik plugins), but the installer didn't install the 32 bit version (it would be in Program Files (x86). It should have installed both as a default.
Also, I didn't change the default pathing as I know that can screw the install up.
I ran the install program again and it runs through the complete install without giving me the Options Panel to select which version 64 or 32 (or both) to install.
Should I completely uninstall PS and reinstall to see if I get the install Options Panel? Other Ideas?
Thanks!
Chris

"it is not possible to just install the 32 bit version without an uninstall?"
It's a great idea, but I don't know how. I have the downloaded the PS CS4 file from Adobe that I used to originally install PS. I re-ran this install program and it reinstalled the same 64bit program that I already have; it never gave me any options as to which version to install.
I'm think I'll just have to de-activate, uninstall, reinstall to get the PS install Options Panel.
