Two versions of Bridge installed - CS5 and CS5.1 - how to remove one?

Looks like this happened by installing Photoshop CS5.1 first, then Flash CS5 after that.  Now I have two versions of Adobe Bridge, along with Extension Manager and a bunch of other redundant stuff now
This is causing me multiple problems:
1) the right-click menu "Browse with Adobe Brigde CS5" is set to the old version.  Probably because it installed afterward (?).  This is no good.  I want it to default to the newer version obviously.
2) I am getting a lot of performance errors - the "not enough drive space" kind of error, when I just try to zoom in on a single small image in a folder with only a couple images in it.  Bear in mind I have 12GB of RAM running here.
How do uninstall the old versions!??  Note, I ALSO have an old old version of Adobe Bridge that came from an install of some CS2 components!!!  It's out of control and aggravating.
Please help

It is usually recommeded you keep old versions rather than removing them.  Some users run in to file association problems when removing older versions.  The file association goes back to the version removed if you can comprehend that.
The versions should not conflict with one another.  HOWEVER, you can run only one Bridge version at a time.
It is also recommended you install programs in order.  So if you installed the newer one first and then the older one you can upset the file associate order.  You can try to fix that first and then uninstall if that does not work.  Go go edit.file type associations see what the dafault programs are listed as CS5 or CS5.1.  There is a radio button on the bottom to reset these to factory default, and this sometimes works.
If not I would uninstall CS5 and CS5.1 and install the older one first.  Or if you don't want CS5 on machine just install CS5.1.  To be on the safe side you could run Adobe Script cleaner which will delete bits that the uninstall process did not get.

  • My Messages app on my Mac has two of the same Apple ID, and I can't remove one of them without disabling iCloud?

         Hello everyone. As my title states, I am having trouble with my Messages application on my MacBook Pro (mid 2012).

  • Different versions of Adobe Creative Suite Compatibility (CS5 and CS5.5)

    Our marketing team has two different versions of Adobe Creative Suite (CS5 and CS5.5).  We can save the CS5.5 down to an IDML document so users with CS5 can open/manipulate the file but it reduces the file size significantly.  What I do not know is if this saving down process reduces the quality of the file??  I am relatively inexperienced with these programs as I am self-taught.  Thanks for your help!

    IDML is good for repairing files.
    But IDML is not good to be used as exchange in a workflow because every export of IDML can change things in an unexpected way. So I would strongly recommend that everyone in the department involved in the workflow uses the very same version, anything else will let you struggle in a later point of time. When I have to exchange files with a client I use always their versions and avoid IDML in exchanging files in any case possible.
    Between CS5.0 and 5.5 are also several changes possible, because some bugs related to the text engine became fixed. E.g. in CS5 if you had an automatic TOC or cross reference in a text frame with 1 or 3 round corners and 3 or 1 normal corners, automatic number got shuffled in that frame, like page 345 became 543. When this was fixed some changes in the text engine have been done.

  • I have two versions of Lightroom installed on my computer, can I uninstall the older version?

    While looking at the "Programs and Features" folder on my Windows 7 computer I discovered that I have two versions of Adobe Lightroom installed on my system. One is Lightroom 5.2, installed on 9/19/2013, and the other is Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.5 64-bit, installed on 7/5/2014
      - Can I uninstall the older version?
      - Will uninstalling the older version cause any problems with the newer version?
      - If yes to either question, is there anything I need to do before doing the uninstall (i.e. deactivating, etc.)
    Any advice on how to correct this problem is gratefully appreciated.
    PS; I have the same issue with Muse CC. See: I have two versions of Muse CC installed on my computer, can I uninstall the older version?

    Jim,
    I thought it was odd that I had two versions of Lightroom installed as well. I have been able to track the issue back to an apparent "bug" in the Lightroom 5.2 update that installed a second version of Lightroom in addition to updating the existing version on my computers. At the time, I posted about it at Lightroom 5 installed twice on my laptop. While I never got an answer to my question, which was "Is this normal?" I did hear from others in the forum the experienced the same problem and had the same question. As time passed, later releases updated one of the two installations, but did not effect the second. Hence, two different versions of Lightroom 5 installed on the same computer.
    Uninstalling the older version solved the problem. Thanks

  • Indesign CS5 and CS5.5 crash on new document / Lion 10.7

    Hello!
    In our agency we encountered a problem since upgrading to OS X Lion 10.7. Both our Indesign CS5 and CS5.5 keep crashing on us whetver we open an existing document or create a new one. We tried to clean-up our installations, deleted both, installed just CS5 and/ CS5.5 - trashed preferences etc. pp. Nothing worked.
    Indesign opens like it should - but the moment we create a document it just hangs with the spinning ball - does anyone else can recreate the issue? We use no plugins in indesign only the app "Fontcase" from the Appstore to maintain our collection of fonts.. but we even tried to deactivate this app to see if it helps - no success.
    We currently cant set up the system new since it is time consuming and just our last choice.. is there some other way to find the problem? We also never see the adobe crash-reporter.. not even after 10-15 minutes as stated in the lion os x issue list.
    Thanks!

  • Retrieve CS5 and CS5.5 installation path from registry

    Hello,
    I have Photoshop CS5 and CS5.5 (5.1) installed on my PC. I want to retrieve installation path for both but in registry i am able to see only CS5.5 (5.1) path. From where i can retrieve CS5 installation path?
    I think registry entry for CS5 is replaced by CS5.1. Is it possible to retrieve CS5 installation path?
    Thanks.

    Hi Carl,
    I had looked at the link you posted earlier too.. I see that you had posetd the answer then too! So, I can post my queries to you directly!
    I created a jsx file named "Result.jsx", which I saved in my D drive, with the following code,
    resultFile = new File("D:/result.log");
    resultFile.open("w");
    resultFile.write(BridgeTalk.__diagnostics__);
    resultFile.close();
    If I run this directly from ESTK, there is no problem, and I get the result.log file. I tried to execute this script via command line as shown in the screenshot,
    On executing the above, I got the following error,
    What am I doing wrong? I need to do this urgently. Please suggest a solution..

  • When I OCR two versions of the same document and then compare th documents in Acrobat Pro XI, I usually get the message that there are no changes to mark.  However, I know there a quite a few number of changes.  I raised this question more than a year ago

    When I OCR two versions of the same document and then compare the documents in Acrobat Pro XI, I usually get the message that there are no changes to mark.  However, I know there a quite a few number of changes.  I raised this question more than a year ago, and the response I received had to do with the quality of the OCR and the scans of the documents.  However, if I use Acrobat Pro XI to save the same documents in Word and then run a comparison in Word all of the changes are marked.  When a PDF is saved as a Word document in Acrobat Pro XI, is a different OCR module being used than the one used in Acrobat Pro XI for text recognition?

    OCR is only for recoginition of the image / picture of text provided by an scanner.
    Content typed into a Word file which is converted to a PDF is (in Word and in PDF) *not* an image  or picture of text - it is the digital text. So, no OCR involved.
    When the "digital" (renderable) text of a PDF's page content is exported to Word no OCR is involved.
    When a PDF's content is from the image output of a scanner and this is a picture of text then OCR comes into play.
    If this content is exported to Word before doing OCR then it is the image that is exported to the Word file.
    Once OCR is performed it is the OCR output that is exported.
    OCR output is (always will be) impacted by "the quality of the OCR and the scans of the documents". 
    Regardless "Compare" is based on a Word file output to PDF1 then edits to the Word file followed by an output to PDF2. You use Acrobat Pro to do a compare of PDF1 & PDF2.
    Paper 1 scanned to image 1 to image 1 in PDF1 that gets OCR 1 and
    Paper 2 scanned to image 2 to image 2 in PDF2 that gets OCR 2
    being processed with Acrobat Pro's Compare can certainly be done.
    But - well you've described what can be observed.
    Be well...

  • Indesign CS5 and CS5.5 missed INX

    If cant able to delete the colors from swatchs that time export to inx and open it in text editor and find the color value and just delete it in Indesign CS3.,
    But we missed inx in CS5 and CS5.5, Hope everybudy know that .INX is replaced by IDML,
    If in case we face the above issue how can we solve it,

    If this is just to delete colour swatches that you can't get rid of any other way there's a faster way that might work.
    Make an object that uses the swatch.
    Cut that object to a new InDesign document.
    Save and close that new document.
    Place that new document into the original document.
    Delete it.
    You should be able to now delete the swatch.
    It's taken me longer to type this than it would have to do it!

  • Flex not embedding metadata in CS5 and CS5.5

    I believe we have a problem related to:
    http://blog.natebeck.net/2011/05/flex-sdk-4-5-doesnt-keep-embed-metadata/
    The project is a CS4 fla that has numerous files embedded with metadata tags:
    [Embed(source = "campaign.xml", mimeType = "application/octet-stream")] public static var campaignData:Class;
    [Embed(source="mirror.pbj", mimeType="application/octet-stream")] public static var MirrorShader:Class;
    [Embed(source="rotateCW.pbj", mimeType="application/octet-stream")] public static var RotateCWShader:Class;
    [Embed(source = "shopUpgrades.json", mimeType = "application/octet-stream")] public static var upgradesData:Class;
    [Embed(source = "help.txt", mimeType = "application/octet-stream")] public static var helpData:Class;
    None of the embedded data is being loaded in when compiled with CS5 or CS5.5
    This is a serious issue for us as it means that all of our Flash 10 projects are now uncompilable in CS5 and CS5.5 and we are unable to make money on these projects.
    What work around can we implement to solve this?

    what exactly is your requirement. I have been able to read and write using property XMPString
    this is the way to start, refer to extended toolkit documentation for XML class.
    var oXML = new XML(app.activeDocument.XMPString);

  • Flash CS5 and CS5.5 Crash when compiling

    Hey,
    We're running into an issue where CS5 and CS5.5 are crashing when compiling an FLA. Our class structure is rather large, and it seems flash is running out of memory. We narrowed it down to commenting/uncommenting any line of code will let it compile or crash. I can literally open any as file from our project, comment out 1 line of code and it will compile, comment it back in and flash crashes. Has anyone run into something like this before, and have any advice on fixing it?

    Hi Morf,
    I can't reproduce your crash. Can you please send me the file up to the point where you saved? Please zip the file, change .zip extension to .zzz, email the attachment to my attention at [email protected]

  • I have CS5 and Elements 9.  Neither one will open my raw photographs from either my Canon EOS 6D or Canon G12 cameras.

    I have CS5 and Elements 9.  Neither one will open my raw photographs from either my Canon EOS 6D or Canon G12 cameras.
    Do you understand my problem?

    Hi,
    What operating system are you using?
    Both photoshop cs5 and pse 9 should be able to open the canon G12 files, but you probably need to update camera raw
    For cs5 go to Help>Updates from within photoshop cs5 to get camera raw 6.7
    For pse 9 you have to download and run the installer for camera raw 6.5

    mac:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5263
    For the canon EOS 6D you'll need the 8.4 dng converter to convert the files to dng copies which cs5 and pse 9 should open, since neither cs5 or pse 9 can be updated to the newer camera raw plugin required for the 6D files.
