Uninstall cs5 prior to installing cs6

I currently have CS5 premium installed on my MAC. Do I need to uninstall it before installing CS6 premium.

Hi Arpit,
Same question about CS4. Will it be possible to use both of them (One at a time though)?

Any Adobe Desktop applications don't overwrite the older version while installation. They install in seperate folders. You can Install and use CS5 and CS6 on the same computer, even simultaneously.

Uninstalling cs5.5 to install cs6

If i install cs6, will it over write cs5 or will i need to uninstall cs5 and then install cs6?

Creative Suite 6 will not affect your installation of Creative Suite 5.

Do I need to uninstall CS5.5 before installing CS6 apps from Creative Cloud?

The video suggests you uninstall any Beta versions but says nothing about previous version of the apps.

Hi. I left CS5 on, installed CS6. There was a problem with the shortcuts but both CS6 and CS5 work. What I just found was that although files (.jpg in this case) opened through Bridge CS6 in Photoshop CS6, Windows Explorer still has CS5 associated with opening the file type. I could change that file type by file type but would guess there's a better way to get all file associations moved from CS5 to CS6. Thanks!

Do I need to uninstall CS5 before I install CS6

I started to download CS6 apps, thinking they would upgrade my old CS5 apps. This does not seem to be the case since now I have both CS5 and CS6 apps at the same time or did I do something incorrect?I have subscribed to CS5 for over a year now. Just wanted to make sure.

wondered if I needed my old software on it before upgrading.
No.
"Upgrades" are all full versions of the software. They don't depend on prior versions being installed in order to function. Upgrade licensing just means you pay less because you already own a previous qualifying version.
In the case of Creative Suites (CS5, CS6) "upgrade" only refers to the serial number.
In the Creative Cloud there are no serial numbers. They're activated via your Adobe ID. The versions available in the Cloud (CS6, CC and CC 2014) are all full versions containing full executable code.

I have CS6 demo loaded on my Vista 64 bit pc. do I need to uninstall it prior to installing CC?

well?

Yes, in any case you need to uninstall beta version before install and running production version.
I recommend you to refer CC system requirement for each and specific application and service
Windows Vista is not a supported OS.

Freehand import of CS5 broken after installing CS6

Hello,
on my windows 7 machine my freehand import of Illustrator CS5 and CS4 is broken after installing cs6 creative cloud.
I can still select a freehand file to open and the dialog box appears, but after choosing OK nothing happens. No file opens and no error appears. It doesn´t depend on the freehand file because my other machine with CS3 can still open these files.
What can i do to repair illustrator? - it´s part of a master collection install.
Siegfried Baldauf

Adobe has dropped support for Freehand import in CS6. You will have to either use an older version of AI and then save it to AI or open them in Freehand and then export to a format that AI can import.
open the Open file Dialog and see the files that illustrator CS6 can open. Here is the list of supported files that AI CS6 can open

Uninstall Muse beta before installing CS6

I just got connected to Creative Cloud and want to install several applications. Should I uninstall Muse beta before installing it via Creative Cloud?

If anyone else has an issue with Muse installing, I was able to download the trial and that seems to be working as an activated version. http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=muse&loc=en_us

I want to uninstall adobe cc and install cs6. What to do?

I am buying CS6 update. Do I uninstall CS5 and Bridge 5 first?

I have CS5 and Bridge 5. (W7) Do I uninstall them prior to installing retail CS6 update?

Thanks, Curt Y. I am inclined to uninstall CS5 and Bridge first, in view of your comments. I am not clear if the CS6 version of Bridge is different to the CS5 version. If the same I will leave Bridge as is. My photos are all backed up several times in W Explorer so not worried about losing anything. I assume the Bridge cache will re- poulate. Last point - I use TWAIN with 32 bit CS5 as I like its flexibility when scanning with my Canon scanners (35 mm to A4 with different dpi) I believe there is a new TWAIN plug in for CS6 32 bit. The old one in CS5 caused CS5 to crash if one used the "File, Automate, Batch" command so I imported in 32 bit and did the batch work in 64 bit - slightly inconvenient but WIA is not an answer and TWAIN is so nuch more convenient. If anyone could comment on this I would be grateful.

Uninstall CSxx before install CS6

I have installed Master Suite CS4, 5, 5.5. Can I uninstall them all before installing CS6? Or do I have to keep them?
I have a 64bit Vista and I will be updating to Win 7 in the next month. So I will have to re-install. During that re-install, same question, do I have to re-install CS4,5,5.5,and 6 or can I just install CS6. CS5,5.5 and, 6 are upgrades.
Thanks for a speedy reply:)

It's your decision you can have or remove them , CS6 installation doesn't require any previous version to be installed already , all it need is the serial number of the previous version that o if it is purchased as an upgrade.

Error #2038 - unable to install CS6 on 10.8.3 brand new iMac

I have attempted to install CS6 creative suite from both the Adobe site and also from an .iso file - both times, it fails to install. Instead, I get the following (and cryptic) error message:
Sorry, an error has occurred.
The application could not be installed. Try installing it again. If the problem persists, contact the application author.
Error# 2038
I did have previous versions of Adobe products on this mac, but erased those files. I downloaded several application cleaners and none of them found a trace of Adobe products.
I verified font book and deleted all problematic fonts.
Any other ideas?
I'm desperate.

Thank you Megangeckler. The difficulty you are currently facing with the Adobe Download Assistant can be solved by removing the currently installed Adobe Download Assistant from your applications folder. You can find more details under the Known issues section of Troubleshoot Adobe Download Assistant - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-download-assistant.html#main_Known_i ssues.
Prior to installing CS6 I would recommend running any available uninstallers located in the Applicatons/Utilities/Adobe Installers for CS6. If you are very lucky this should clear up any additional installation issues you may face.
If you do face any additional difficulties with installing CS6, not the Adobe Download Assistant as referenced in your screenshot, then please remove any remaining Adobe Creative software and follow this by running the CS Cleaner tool. You can find details on how to download and use the CS Cleaner Tool at CS Cleaner Tool for installation problems | CCM, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.

How to uninstall CS5?

I recently got CS6. But I left CS5 in my computer as a backup. Now I want to uninstall CS5 because I believe CS5 is the reason my CS6 programs keep crashing on me without offering to save my work prior to crashing.
How do I uninstall CS5 completely, without harming CS6 in any way?
thanks in advance for your response.
C

You don't. The rest is unfounded speculation. unisntall both version, run the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool, reinstall only CS6.

After installing CS6 can I uninstall CS5? If so, how do I do it?

This comes up repeatedly, so you may want to do a forum search.
In a nutshell:
If you wanted to remove CS5, you should have done so before installing CS6. The CS5 uninstaller is very likely to mess with and destroy the CS6 installation.
Your best bet now is to use the CS6 uninstaller and uninstall CS6 first, then use the CS5 uninstaller to uninstall CS5, then run the Adobe CSClean script (downloadable from the Adobe site), and finally install CS6 again.
All adobe updaters are FULL installers and do not need a previously installed version to work. When they don't find a prior version installed, they will simply prompt you for the old serial number as well as the new one.
