Uninstalling CS5, installing CS4

I had a trial version of AiCS5, it was "2 days left" to the end of using it and I got a full Adobe pack CS4. I started up a disc and when making an installation I couldn't choose Ai (this wasn't lighted like other programs). So I uninstalled my trial version (and cleaned the trash bin) - that didn't help. After I restarted my mac, but nothing changed when trying to choose Ai. Maybe it's because the trial was CS5 and this one's CS4??
Now I have a project to finish and I don't have neither trial, nor CS4 Would be nice if someone had an idea about this.

Use the Clean Script

  • Can uninstalling and installing CS4 fix the debug event error message?

    Hello,
    Can uninstalling and installing  cs4 solve the debug event error message?

    Can uninstalling and installing  cs4 solve the debug event error message?
    Well, that DOES seem to be the scripted mantra of Adobe TS in some out of the way country. According to most reports, that cures everything from trying to Capture over a USB cable to working with footage from your cellphone camera. In most cases, it has cured very little, though maybe the Debug Event error IS something that will be fixed by this.
    Good luck,

  • I just bought a new computer and want to load in photoshop from the old one.  I have CS5.  Since CS5 was an upgrade I installed CS4 first, but now I can't figure out how to install the CS5 upgrade.  Any advice?

    How do I transfer photoshop from one computer to another?  I have CS5.  Since CS5 was an upgrade I installed CS4 first, but now I cannot figure out how to install the CS5 upgrade.  Any advice?

    No, but it may help the chances of a successful installation.

      Just as an aside - I have been getting messages on here from Adobe Admin saying that CS5 cannot be reinstalled because everything is now in the cloud and that for $350 I can buy CS6 to install on my new computer.  What?  Am I getting spammed on Adobe's site here?
    Where did you see that?

  • Re-install CS4 over CS5

    (also posted in Premiere forum)
    What would you think about the possible effects of putting CS4 back in my system now that I have a clean install of CS5 (from the OS on up, still haven't reloaded everything)?  I am still trying to get HDV mpeg clips to preview in Bridge and Windows Media player without success and Premiere still seems sluggish.  Getting "file update errors" when I capture new footage.
    This is in my dual processor/Quad Core 3.0, 8 gig RAM, Vista Ultimate 64bit, NVidia 5700 (1.5gig) graphics setup.  It has worked flawlessly in CS4 before I upgraded to CS5.  Previews, workflow, pretty stable (only problems were usually pilot error), overall quite happy.
    So, in short, does anyone think that putting CS4 back in might give me back the mpeg CODEC support (external to Premiere - all clips play inside Premiere OK).  Don't anyone suggest 3rd party CODEC packages: been there, done that and spent a week doing a clean install from ground up.  And, "Yes", all file associations inside Bridge and in Windows have been set up.  Latest versions of Quicktime and Windows Media Player.
    When I moved to CS5 I also went from Vista 32bit to 64bit.  All updates have been installed to that, but could that be where problem lies?  My business relies on recycling footage from project to project, mixing and blending from nearly 3TB of storage, so bringing them all into a Premiere project bin to preview is out of the question as you all well know.
    Sorry to drag on, but I love Master Suite a lot and would love to make it fly higher than it did in CS4.
    So, does it hurt to back-wards-re-install products?

    Standard advice is to de-activate and uninstall CS5 and run the Adobe Cleanscript. Then install CS4 followed by CS5.
    Otherwise you may completely confuse your system.

  • Installation/uninstall issues between CS4 and CS5

    I had CS4 installed. I purchased CS5 (downloaded it) installed that.  When I got the disks via mail, I tried to install that version (disk version).  I started having issues as to which program would open a .prproj file.  Often the CS4 version of Premiere Pro opened.  Not what I wanted.  I eventually uninstalled CS5 entirely and then reinstalled.  Then things were working fine.  However, I then tried to uninstall CS4.  (I have seen from numerous posts/comments to leave both on -- which I really don't know why.  Doesn't make sense to keep both versions).  I prefer not to have an extra 4GB of space used for programs I am no longer using.  However, in doing so, the uninstall didn't appear to do a perfect job.  And now I can't double-click a .prproj file.  This icon is also blank white.  I went into Set Associations and I can't assign .prproj to Premiere CS5.  In looking at the Open With window, I notice that some of the icons for other Adobe programs are all splewy (Adobe Encore is using the CS4 icon, Adobe Illustrator is using the PDF icon, Flash Catalyst is using the Air icon, etc.)
    I could: a) uninstall everything, including Adobe Acrobat Pro (which I had purchased and installed prior to CS4 or CS5) and then reinstall everything -- sheesh that would take a while; or b) I could ask my friends here to explain and guide me!

    Hi Stix, Thanks.
    I am not so positive that there is no difference between the download version vs the media version specifcially because in downloading the updates, the site demands you choose your update depending on how your software was installed.  I figured that the download would be smaller.  Perhaps you are right. And maybe it is the same, in either case, when I get a stack of disks, I tend to think there is more on the disk and the download version is merely the core applications.
    Anyway, I had to uninstall everything CS4 and CS5 and then reinstall CS5.  Oddly, this didn't automatically fix my problem.  However, at least I was able to choose Premiere CS5 to open .prproj files and check off the box to use it as the default. (I wasn't able to before).  So now it works!

  • Installed CS5 now CS4 projects don't work

    Further to an assurance in another thread that CS4 and CS5 could happily co-exist I installed the CS5 Master Collection full version on my Win7Pro 64 system.
    Now I have just opened a project in CS4. The media is all marked offline. When I try and re-link it I get an error message "File Format Not Supported"...
    The original files in this project were M2T and .MP4 from Sony Z5 and EX1 respectively.
    Any ideas about how to get this all working again? I did make an image of my system file before installing CS5 so can always revert to that, but I would like to be able to use CS5 as well as revisiting CS4 projects!
    Just to add then even when I create a new CS4 project try and import either M2T or BPAV (haven't tried any other formats) I still get this "File Format Not Supported" error message. So it looks like CS5 has hosed my CS4's ability to import media!  There must be an easy fix to this.... and yes, Premiere 4.2.1.
    Cheers

    Mark,
    Sorry that we did not have a quick and easy answer for you.
    At least with Harm's reporting, it confirms my thoughts that the co-existence of the two versions should not be an issue.
    Over the decades, Adobe has been great about this. The only two instances of problems, that I can recall was with the CS2 Production Studio programs (all of them), if one later installed PrElements 4 - CS2 Production Studio got hosed, but was easily handled with a quick Repair Install of each program in the suite - took me about 45 mins. total. Obviously, Adobe had not anticipated a user with CS2 installing PrE 4, but by the time that I did, they had a KB Article on the issue. The other was if a use had PrPro CS3 installed, then installed CS4, and later uninstalled CS3 - it took some necessary elements form CS4, so again the Repair Install was the easy trick. Otherwise, no one issue that I know of. On one machine, I had PS 4, 5, 7 and CS for various reasons. No issue. Same for several versions of AI, both PageMaker and InDesign, and on the list goes. No issues.
    Good luck, and hope the Project goes well, and that you'll get CS5 running smoothly,

  • Keep PS CS4, but totally remove PS CS5, install PS CS6rer

    I currently have both PS CS4 and CS5 installed on my Windows Vista PC.
    I would like to totally remove CS5, and replace it with CS6.
    I understand that Adobe has a "tool" to entirely uninstall CS5.
    Where can I download this "tool", and are there any other issues that I should be aware of?
    Thanks

    Is there no file/alias »Uninstall Adobe Photoshop CS5« in the Photoshop CS5 folder?
    May I ask why you want to uninstall CS5?

  • Problems before and after Uninstall and re-install CS4

    I went ahead and uninstalled and re-installed CS4 because of freeze ups and other difficulties. Program After Effects is now crashing - see attachment. There is also a problem with an importer plugin (I think) may be related. I can't tell. I have not tried any other projects. I did however, disconnect the Matrox MX02 Mini, but still had problems. The MX02 is now re-connected.
    I wonder if installing CS4 on top of CS3 is an issue? I remember having a similar problem goiing from CS2 to CS3. I had to downloader a cleaning utility from Adobe (I think) to remove every bit of CS2 and then run CCleaner.
    It's my own fault - trying to upgrade software and hardware at the same time. It's hard to isolate. For now, I'l just have to do with Premiere since it is working. But, I'd sure like to know what's going on.

    Did you re-install all other Adobe products as well? If not, then that may be the problem. Uninstalling/ reinstalling only one of them messes with MediaCore and certain otehr functions. The quick fix is to download the manuala (!) update packages for After Effects, Premiere Pro/Encore and Adobe Media Encoder from the support pages and run them. This usually bends things in place. If not, then you will probably have to uninstall again, this time including every Adobe app, use the CS4 Clean Script and reinstall.

  • Do I need to install CS4 full version before installing CS5 upgrade?

    New hard drive in iMac. I have a full version of CS4 design premium and an upgrade version of CS5. Do I have to install both? Or can I just install CS5 upgrade and somehow use my CS4 full serial number to validate the CS5?

    You have the right idea.  You do not have to install CS4.  At some point during installation of CS5 you will be required to enter the serial number for CS4 in order to confirm it as a valid upgrade installation

  • Installed Cs4 - can I now uninstall cs2?

    I recently installed CS4 upgrade on my laptop and would now like to uninstall the version of CS2 that I have been using.
    Will removing CS2 remove any shared files that are necessary for CS4 to work properly?
    The reason for removing CS2 is that I am quickly running out of available disk space on drive C.
    As a side question,  is it possible to delete CS4 from my laptop and re-install it on my D drive (how wil that affect my activation?)?
    Thanks in advance for any and all help

    It is not advisable to install Photoshop anywhere but  C:\Program files. Some have done it, but many have had problems.
    If you want more space on C:\ move stuff off it and clear out all temp files and other accumulated junk (there is normally a lot!)
    Get an external drive for your image files.

  • Is CS5 good w/Windows 8? If so, how to uninstall and install on new computer? If not, upgrade?

    Is CS5 compatible with Windows 8? If so, how do I uninstall and install on new computer if I no longer have any installation files? If it isn't compatible, is there an option to upgrade?

    You won't know until you try. As always, results on untested system configurstions depend on a gigazillion tiny things and this is just that. Coul work, could turn into a nightmare. Downloads are available here:

  • I installed CS4 Web Premium, do I need to uninstall CS2? (I don't have CS3) If so, how?

    I thought the installer would just upgrade my existing CS2 apps but after I installed CS4, I saw that all the CS2 apps were still there! Do I need to uninstall them manually? If so, how? Is there any danger in doing that? Or should I uninstall CS4 then uninstall CS2, then reinstall CS4???? Thanks much for any advice/help!

    Karen,
    No. This is a full-version upgrade, meaning that it is a complete installation, independent of any past versions installed. Both versions can coexist and can be used.
    But if you double-click on a file to launch the application, the most recent version prevails. If you prefer to have the older version default (for the current work session), launch it first, then double-click on the files to work on them.

    I have a iMac and i just updated the computer to Yosemite.  I have Photoshop CS5 and when I try to print under print size --- manage custom size , photoshop unexpectedly quits every time.  I updated the printer drivers (epson 9880)  uninstalled and installed all the drivers. restarted computer and it is still doing the same thing.  Cant find any costumer service here either except forums.

    I have exactly the same problem - Whenever I go to Print, the print widow appears, it thinks about it for a bit (rotating symbol) and then quits.
