Unable to uninstall Adobe Photoshop CS5 12.1.1 via Control Panel (Win7)

I was wondering if anyone can help me we currently have at least 100 users of Adobe Photoshop CS5 12.1 and it is deployed via SCCM 2007. I was able to patch Adobe Photoshop CS5 to v 12.1.1 using AAMEE and we are on the process of having it scripted so it can be pushed to our end users running Windows 7. I was successful in creating a new package using AAMEE but I cannot uninstall photoshop from the Control Panel (Programs and Features) the right click uninstall is disabled. Please note that I am a local admin on the Windows 7 machine that I am working on. Is there a registry key that I need to modify to enable the uninstall feature?
Is uninstallation disabled from the control panel by default when photoshop is packaged using AAMEE?
As of the moment if I need to uninstall Adobe Photoshop I need to run this command ‘msiexec /qn /x ‘Photoshop CS5.msi. I have tried to research on the internet but I was not able to find any solution. I am hoping you can help me when you get a chance
Thank You,
William

I have found a solution to this problem. Install the files in safe boot mode. Here is the how to guide:
Part One:
With past attempts or even previous versions of Adobe CS can be still lying around on your mac, in order to remove the bits and bobs needed in order for a clean install you need to download the 'CS5 Cleaner Tool' by Adobe. This can remove all previous version of CS right back to CS3. This could be the problem effecting you download. This tool can be download from here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/829/cpsid_82947.html
YOU MUST USE THIS TOOL BEFORE MOVING ON TO PART TWO.
Part Two:
To start up into Safe Mode (to Safe Boot), do this:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
(Source: Apple: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1455)
Part Three:
Now that you have let your machine boot up in Safe Boot.
    1. Locate the .dmg installation file. This can take a while to load, but be patient.
    2. Click to open the .dmg.
    3. Carry on with the installation as you normally would.
    4. Sit back and enjoy until its 100%.
Once it has installed you can now restart your machine and boot up as normal. Log in and then it should be there in your applications to use.
I have spent nearly 2 days myself trying to figure this out, and finally i have found a solution. I hope this helps anyone who has come across this problem themselves.
Good Luck,
John

  • Unable to activate adobe photoshop cs5.1 subscription edition.  Product activation is required.

    I installed adobe photoshop cs5.1 and so far the installation worked.  Entering my key and running photoshop for the first time worked.  Upon closing photoshop and reopening photoshop, it asks for internet access again and says it needs to be activated and the screen stays there.  The software is stuck that it must be activated and can't be used.
    A extra few details.  The hosts file is basically empty other than the default windows stuff.  The network is filtered through a cisco ironport and this can't be changed.  As far as proxy goes, there isn't one configured in windows.  My browser does have internet access but it is filtered.
    I think my question is how do I check the subscription is valid?

    d1235234 can you please confirm that you are still installing Photoshop CS5?  All point product subscriptions were converted over a year ago to Creative Cloud point product memberships.  You should be able to utilize the directions listed at Install and update apps - https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html if this is the case.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.

    In the details it is mentioned that it is an outdated version of Java.
    Is this a security risk that i need to live with to get CS5 to run with Yosemite?
    Also i need to reject messages from Java in the future about updates, or not?

  • Unable to upload Photos edited in Adobe Photoshop CS5

    Hi All,
    I have edited some Raw photos in Adobe Photoshop CS5.
    The photo size is less than 5 MB, but while uploading them to the sites such as Picasa or Facebook, I get an error.
    Not a single photo is getting uploaded.
    Can anybody help me what's going wrong ?
    Regards,
    Vilas

    Hi All,
    Providing common responce to all:
    I was converting the Raw files into JPEG format and was trying to upload to the online printing service sites so that I can get good quality print outs.
    Since my requirement was a quality print, I would not compromise on the file size.
    Also the printing sites were having one file size limit upto 10 MB.
    I am using Windows 7, and recently had upgraded my browser to IE 9.
    After suggestion from Manish Kumar, I tried Google Chrome, and bang.... it worked !!!
    Thanks Manish and all for helping me out... The problem is sorted out now, but the upload speed is pathetic.. that I have to live with the Internet speed.
    Thanks a lot once again.
    Regards,
    Vilas

    Looks like the first two warnings are security level warnings meaning that your silent install will not grant the correct security level for what ever reason. I suspect it needs admin level maybe?
    Here is a link. Read #8 as it has to do with silent installs. The log will give you more hints on what you did wrong.
