Should I uninstall my previously installed version of Lightroom 4 before downloading LR5?

I recently changed my single app membership of photoshop cc to the new Adobe offer of  lightroom 5 & photoshop cc and 20 g space on the cloud for 9.99.
Should I uninstall my previously installed version of lightroom 4.3 before downloading lightroom 5?

No.

  • How can I uninstall a previously installed version of Aperature from another owner?

    Hi,
    I purcased my iMac from a previous owner.  His version of Aperature is still on it - registered under his AppleID.  I would like to uninstall it as it is preventing me from using my own version of iPhoto.  How can I do this?  Would it be asvisable to uninstall it and then purchase a new version of Aperature and then convert my iPhoto library to Aperature?  Right now, iPhoto wont launch becuase it wants me to upgrade Aperature, but I don't own a registered copy to my Apple ID, so I can't upgrade it.
    My setup is:
    iMac 27" 12,2
    3.4 GHz Intel Core i7
    32GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6970M 2048MB
    OS X 10.9.2 (13C64)
    Aperature 3.2.4
    iPhoto 9.5.1
    Thank you!

    The previous owner of that machine should have wiped it and install the original OS that shipped with the system leaving the system at the point where the new owner takes over and enters all there own information.
    Before you go much further with this machine you should seriously consider backing up any new stuff you have done and wiping it and starting from scratch. If you keep the system like it is you  will be plagued with problems. Even doing OS updates will prove frustrating.
    Right now the best you can do is to move the Aperture that is on the system into the trash, log into the App Store using your ID and buying Aperture. That should work but to be honest I have never had to do it so can;t say for sure.
    You might want to look at this What to do before selling or giving away your Mac from Apple to read what they recommend.
    good luck

  • I am trying to download the latest version of iTunes to my PC (windows XP) and I keep getting an error message or two. One is that it can't uninstall the previous itunes version, the other is that it can't find itunes.msi.

    I am trying to download the latest version of iTunes to my PC (windows XP) and I keep getting an error message or two. One is that it can't uninstall the previous itunes version, the other is that it can't find itunes.msi. I have tried removing  the old version in add/remove programs, but it says the same error. I tried deleting every thing that has itunes in the file/folder/etc and it didn't help.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Need to reinstall Photoshop CS2 but it can't find a previously installed version so won't reinstall

    Photoshop CS2 told me there was a "major problem" and that I would need to reinstall the software to continue using it.
    So I used the installer CD, but it told me it could not install because there was already a copy installed, which would need to be removed.
    So I removed the old version and tried to reinstall but now it tells me it needs a previously installed version in order to reinstall.
    Adobe "customer service"chat  is 100% useless on this, referred me to the 800 #, been on hold for over 45 miinutes now, and no relevant topics found on "help" forums.
    For a multibillion dollar monopoly, you'd think they could hire a couple of customer service reps but I guess it's all DIY "support" here, so can anyone help?

    So, you are NOT trying to reinstall an upgrade, but a purchased version (not in an upgrade path from one version to the next)?
    If that is correct, there should be no request for a "previously installed version." That only appears when one is installing an upgrade.
    Are you installing from physical media (a DVD), or from a download?
    Sorry, I do not have an answer for you.
    Good luck,

  • Firefox can't open normally without going through the "this is embarrassing" routine; nor does it close down properly; it also sticks frequently, i.e. screen freezes for a minute or more; should I uninstall and re-install to try and debug?

    Firefox can't open normally without going through the "this is embarrassing" routine; nor does it close down properly; I get the "end program" message and have to say "end now"it also sticks frequently, i.e. screen freezes for a minute or more; should I uninstall and re-install to try and debug?
    - I've used Firefox exclusively for around 2 years.
    - My outlook express has no problems
    - other programs seem unaffected; it seems peculiar to Firefox.
    - my main use is surfing the net, primarily entering competitions on line via specialist competition sites.
    - every day at some stage(s) I have to switch computer off as Firefox has got very slow/sticky/freezes.
    I'm not techy by any means, but I can only thing of un- and re-installing to hopefully start with a clean slate.

    Sounds like something is keeping Firefox from closing properly. See this: <br />

  • I updated to new ios and now it is not syncing properly.  How can i revert back to the previous installed version?

    I updated to new ios and now it is not syncing properly.  New songs are not showing up on the ipod display but when I view the device on my computer, they are in the playlist but there is a dashed circle beside the missing songs.  It previously synced perfectly before the IOS update.  How can i revert back to the previous installed version?

    Downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple.
    Try:

  • Where do I find the version number of the latest version of Firefox before downloading?

    I must request permission to download Firefox at work and IT needs version number before granting permission. Texas regulatory agencies use Firefox and work only allows microsoft internet explorer. To use the agencies models and reports I need Firefox. The website for downloading does not list the version number. Where do I find the version number of the latest version of Firefox before downloading?

    You can find the latest Firefox 20.0.x release in all languages and for all Operating Systems here:
    *http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    If you hover a download link the you should see the Firefox version in the pop-up at the bottom of the screen.

  • After installing PS and LR newer CC versions, should I uninstall the previous versions? Computer is running extremely slow in those programs.

    After installing PS and LR newer CC versions, should uninstall the previous versions? Computer is running ver slow in those programs.

    you can uninstall them, but do not need to uninstall them.  you should probably wait a few months to make sure all your peripherals and plugins work with the cc 2014 versions before uninstalling cc.

  • I was advised to uninstall iTunes and install version 7 so iTunes will recognize my devices but I need to know if I will lose my library when I uninstall?

    I was advised to uninstall previous version of iTunes from my computer and install version 7 in order for the program to recognize my apple devices but I need to know if I will lose my library?

    iTunes  7 is about 7 years old.  Almost certainly your devices would not be recognized.  Could you possibly mean 10.7?
    It would be useful to know if you are using a Mac or Windows.
    Upgrading software normally does not affect the library.  Still, there are weekly complaints by users who say they have lost something while updating so you should make sure you have a backup of your computer before updating any software at all.

  • Firefox says I have to uninstall a previous install before it will continue. I have done that and I still cannot install firefox

    I am trying to insrtall firefox. Every time I try I get a message that I must uninstall a previous firefox that apprently never uninstalled. I am told to reboot my compurter to make that happen but it never goes away. I have tried this three times now and am getting no where.

    Several take home messages here:
    always back up before you update.
    always back up anything you don't want to lose. Kind of like flossing. Only floss the teeth you don't want to lose.
    Norton is very, very bad software, and you should get rid of it.
    You don't need antivirus software on your mac. Antivirus software on macs causes more trouble than it is worth.
    Your hard drive may be failing and thus may not be salvageable.
    You could try booting into the recovery partition and seeing if you can repair your hard drive.
    If that doesn't work, then there is a small chance that a third party utility (like Disk Warrior or TechTool) might be able to fix your drive (if it is not failing).
    If that doesn't work, you may be able to send your drive and a lot of cash to a drive recovery service and see if they can get your files off it.
    In the mean time, get notes and slides from a (smart) friend.

  • Should I uninstall the 7 old versions of Java that show on the add on page?

    Do you mean multiple Java Console extensions in Tools > Add-ons > Extensions ?
    You can uninstall (remove) the Java Console extensions and disable the Java Quick Starter extension, you do not need them to run Java applets.

  • Removing a previous installed version of MySQL

    When I try to install a production version of MySQL after previously installing a beta version the Installer balks with the comment "Can't install because a newer version exists'.
    I have removed /usr/local/mysql...beta and the link to it and the MySQL in PreferencePanes.
    Are there other mysql files that the OS recognizes that would stop the installation?

    Try the Unix forum under OS X Technologies. BTW, in Snow Leopard, all receipts are stored in /var/db/receipts/ and all you'll find in /Library/Receipts/ is the InstallHistory.plist file. Anything else is a holdover from Leopard and can be safely deleted.

  • How do i rollback Firefox 8 to my previously installed version of firefox?

    I have upgraded from Mac OSX Firefox Version 3.6something to 8. I prefer my 3.6something. Is there a way to rollback the version?

    I want to roll back to ver 7.0 until the time when/if two add-ons are updated to be compatible with 8.0. Ver 3.6 is much further back than i want to go. I seemed to remember there used to be a page at mozilla.org to download ''any'' previous version. But i couldn't find anything like that now. Still version 7.0.1 is available at http://www.top10download.com/mozilla-firefox-7

  • I had to uninstall V26 and installed V25.1 as the download pannel seems not working

    The files would download but are not seen in the download pannel which remain empty as though nothing has been downloaded.

    I hate new download because you don't know a corrupt file. It's stupid to show only filesize. It look like the programmers have power mind to know which files are really 100%.
