Should I uninstall PSE Ver 9 before installing PSE Ver 12 retail pack?

MY laptop came with PSE Ver 9 preloaded.
I have bought the discs for PSE Ver 12 ( Photoshop and Premier Elements ) In Amazon.
Should I uninstall Version 9 using the Program Features Uninstall routine. BEFORE loading Ver 12?

THanks Barbara
interested when you say missing features, that can be copied over?
Is there any Performance degredation associated with leaving a redundant program there.? Ie will the unused program slow down ver 12? Eg will it clog up shared services etc.
or more likely, ( after my nightmare trying to load PSE VER 12, when it had to be uninstalled - it eventually took one of their top technicians 3.5 hours of manual clean up) is there a bigger risk in uninstalling ver 9.
In light how badly Version 12 uninstalls is this a nightmare too?
my preference is to go for ultimate performance over a few aextra features.
I Got more than I need atm lol!

Should I uninstall PSE 10 after upgrade to PSE 11?

I just successfully installed PSE 11 to support my new Nikon D7100's RAW image files. Should I get rid of the older PSE version? Thanks!

It's totally up to you. You can if you want, but you don't have to. I'd leave it till you're sure there isn't some feature you preferred in PSE 10.

Adobe PSE 11 installer defaults to the "uninstall" routine.

I’m trying to install PSE 11 from a downloaded < Adobe_PE11_T1.zip >. Preferring a “clean” installation, first I uninstalled PSE 10 (Windows7 Control Panel / Programs); however, PSE 10’s program folder did not delete. So, I deleted it manually, then ran Adobe’s <adobe_creative_suite_cleaner_tool>, and selected “All.”
Now, unzipping and installing PSE 11 causes the installer to default consistently to "uninstall." I’ve performed cold boots between each step, and repeated the entire process with identical results. How do I "reset" Adobe for a clean installation?

Since you deleted PSE10 program files folder manually, it might create some issues. Please restart you system once and then look for any residues of PSE10 in program files\adobe\ and try installing PSE11.

I'm having to re-install PSE 11 on a new hard Drive. I clicked the installer and it ran, but says it's missing the .exe file. I then downloaded PSE 11 from your website and when I unzipped it and ran it, it wanted to uninstall PSE 11. Now I'm contactin

Okay, so, fast forward from July to now -
- I've visited my closest Apple store's genius bar twice now. (Over an hour and a half away.)
- My computer spent at least 8 hours behind their closed doors in the workshop
- Several complete erases of the harddrive have taken place
- Most of the Apple geniuses I dealt with were nice and very knowledgeable, but they were and still aren't 100% sure exactly what is wrong with my computer.
The good news is:
- They were able to at least get it running again, with a clean install from their servers of OS X Lion 10.7.5
- They believe that my problems stem from either 1 of 2 things:
- Faulty Hard Drive (even though it is brand new)
- The wrong build of software being installed.
Now, while the wrong build does seem like it could be the problem, it doesn't make sense in the aspect that all of the initial problems began when the first hard drive failed. The same problems continued when I changed out the failed hard drive with the brand spanking new one, and only slightly improved when I was able to successfully install the OS that came with the original disks for my computer. I'm not convinced this thing is back to normal, but hopefully I can make it last through getting a shiny new retina Macbook Pro in the coming future. Thank you so much to everyone who read and replied to this post!

If i install new version of Firefox with standalone installer instead of using built in updater, should i uninstall older version first? Would i lose my datas?

As part of end of year maintenance program, i clean my computer and update softwares. I'm currently with Firefox 4.0.1, and want to upgrade to 8. However, the built in updater downloads horribly slow and demands the browser to be active. Most of the times it stated failure and asks me to download the installer myself.
I'm okay with this. Firefox has always be my favorite. But before i do 8.0.1's installation, should i uninstall the old one? Or will it be rewritten automatically? Would i lose my bookmarks and extensions this way?
Win7 64 bit
p.s: (if someone could tell me how to back up 'Scrapbook' data i'll be so thankful)

You can install latest version on top of older version,and if you install on top of older version, your bookmark will restored

Trying to install upgrade of PSE 13, Installer failed to initialize. :-/

I'm trying to install the upgrade after purchasing it for the Photoshop Elements 13. I get the 7z icon, open it go to PSE13 then SEt up and run it. Then I get a message saying "We've encountered the following issues. Installer failed to initialize. This could be due to a missing file. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem. " Then I'm directed to a troubleshooting page that really has me going around in circles... What do I do??
Should I uninstall the version I currently have and try installing PSE 13 using the key code??
I've been trying to set this up for about 2 hours now and feel like I'm just going around in circles. Please help.

Angela_castro_p I would recommend reviewing your installation log files to determine why the installer is failing to initialize. Most likely you will want to review the PDApp.log in this situation as it should contain the error preventing initialization. For information on how to locate and interpret your installation log files please see Troubleshoot install using logs | Elements. You are welcome to post any specific errors you discover to this discussion.

Uninstalling PSE 7, 8, 9 and 10

I have PSE 7, 8, 9, 10 and now 11. My Norton diagnostics program reports I have too many prorgrams and should uninstall some. I did not uninstall PSE as I updated newer versions. If I uninstall 7 - 10, will I lose catalog files or otherwise do harm?

Thank you very much for your help. mike

I transferred CS5 to a new computer using PC transfer program. CS5 started up on the new computer OK, but now does not recognize raw files. Should I uninstall and reinstall again?

I transferred CS5 to a new computer using PC mover ultimate. CS5 appeared to start up normally, I had to insert the serial number from my original CD. However, now the program does not recognize CR files and Adobe bridge is not working properly. I get messages that CS5 needs to be updated, but the updates fail. What should I do? Should I uninstall CS5 on the new computer, uninstall CS5 on the old computer using the original CD, and then reinstall CS5 using the CD on the new computer?

Transferring programs does not work well with Adobe applications. You should install them.
As far as having the program on different machines goes, you are allowed to have two activated installations so if it is working on the original machine there is no reason to remove it unless you need the space.

Downloaded Photoshop 11 on Mac - cannot open it, should I uninstall/reinstall - Help!

I downloaded Adobe Photoshop Elements about 6 months ago. I think I messed up from the beginning - perhaps I saved something in the wrong place. I tried making a shortcut on my desktop, but it didn't work somehow, so I've been going through the Organizer to open the Editer because whenever I click on the shortcut I get this error message: "Some of the application components are missing from the Application directory, Please reinstall the application."
Today I was fiddling around with things on my computer and tried to make a shortcut again by finding the "Adobe" file in Finder and dragging it on the desktop. That didn't work....it disappeared from Finder and I cannot open the Editer from the Organizer anymore - needless to say the shortcut I tried to make didn't work. I keep getting the same error message. So, I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this, but I would really like some opinions. Should I uninstall it completely and reinstall it? Can I since I downloaded it off the site?
Please help!
Thanks!!

Hi cosmicstarfish,
It seems the install was not proper. Please uninstal the existing version, download the software again and reinstall.
You can try downloading it from the direct download links available at : http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-11-direct-download-links-pse-premiere-pre.htm l
But make sure you follow the important steps mentioned on the page before initiating the download.

Why does PSE 12 installation continually fail?

Despite repeated attempts with Adobe Support, I am unable to get PSE 12 installed due to "Shared Technologies" installation failure. After 20-30 minutes of attempting an install, I receive an error message saying that Shared Technologies has failed to install and a full uninstall is required (another 15-20 minutes). I find nothing in the PSE installation log files, I have tried everything (I do mean absolutely everything) suggested in the forums, support, knowledgebase and/or what Adobe Support has suggested (which really hasn't been sub-par). I even provided Adobe Support my log files and - in response - they told me to uninstall "Bit Defender" anti-virus (which I do not have nor have I ever had on my machine). Anyone else have their PSE 12 installation continually fail?

Windows 7 Ultimate x64
I’m not sure what exactly you mean by “removing the bits” in-between times but I have removed the installation and OOBE folders (after renaming them didn’t help either). As recommended in a forum or by Support, I created a root-level folder (c:
PSE12_Install), saved the installation file(s) to that folder and ran “As Administrator” the EXE from that location. I tried that three (3) different times and each time I deleted the folder and OOBE folder. I restart each time plus I run ccleaner.exe to make certain there is no legacy registry entries or undeleted files.

Can you load a PSE 11 catalogue backup into a new PSE 12 installation?

My computer is in repair due too a HDD problem. When I get it back it will only have windows installed. I currently have PSE 11 but I suspect I can´t do a reinstall because I did not de-activate the installation before the crash and I can´t find any information on the forum how to get your code reset. So alternatively I´m probably going to buy PSE 12. But then I have to load my PSE 11 back-up into a PSE 12 installation. Is that possible without losing information? I anybody can help out I would be very happy!

If you contact Adobe Support using chat they can take care of deactivation for the inaccessible installation.
Serial number and activation chat support (non-CC)
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/service1.html ( http://adobe.ly/1aYjbSC )
If you only had the one installation, you should still be able to install even without contact Adobe Support since you are allowed to have activated installations on two machines. But if you have the deactivate for the original you will then have the extra one available.

Community Help program ignores new PSE 12 installation

after uninstalling PSE 10 I installed PSE 12 & Premiere Elements 12 on my notebook (WIN 8.1)
for offline use the Adobe Community Help offers only the contents for PSE 10 and Premiere Elements 10 (was never installed!!)
as dowloadable files, the new insttalled 12 versions seem to be ignored.
Is it poosible to update the community help software or should I try to un- and reinstall it?
Frank

(sorry if my question was unclear, english is not my native language)
my problem is NOT downloading or opening any pdfs,
Then using the help function in pse without permanent internet connection, it is possible to choose usage of "only local contents" in the pre-settings for help. When the computer is online, the selected contents will be downloaded and updated automaticly by the community help tool.
It works, but the problem is that the adobe community help tool only offers the WRONG contents (old pse version). So I think about reinstalling the help-tool

Should I uninstall current CS6 before installing CreativeCloud app?

Should I uninstall current CS6 before installing CreativeCloud app?
I have the CS6 Master Suite and have kept it updated, do I need to uninstall that before installing the creative cloud apps?

Not necessary. CC will recognise existing installs and simply substitute the licensing.

No longer using Linksys router. Should I uninstall Cisco LEAP, PEAP, and EAP?

Should I uninstall the Cisco LEAP, PEAP, and EAP programs if I am no longer using a Linksys router? I am replacing with an Asus router.
thanks,
KG

Hi! It's best to uninstall them all if you are not going to use them for the sake of freeing some memory on your computer. Should you change your mind and get a new Linksys router one of these days, I am sure it will come with its own installation software anyway.
