Uninstalling Mastercollection CS6 on OSX10.6.8

Is it an easy way to uninstall the whole package of Mastercollection CS6. I have to do this, because Illustrator will not launch.
Then reinstall. Some part of Mastercollection CS6 neither have an uninstalling icon (Brigde). If I start with deactivating, and then run the uninstall button for each part where it is, is this the way to do it?
Do not look forward for this job....

Thanks for answering fast!
I have read the pdf for instructions, and if I have to do from:
"How to configure the Cleanup XML file" and so on I think I do it the "slow" way.
I am a bit familiar with scripting because I publish sites, but this is to much "thinking" :-)
OK, if I do it the "slow" way, what about Brigde that do not have unstalling.
Should I not bother?

  • Adobe Media Encoder CS6 completely missing from Mastercollection CS6

    Computer Environment:
    MacBook Pro Early 2011
    Graphics  AMD Radeon HD 6490M 256 MB
    Memory  16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    SSD with 512GB; about 81GB are still free
    Mavericks  OS X 10.9.5
    Adobe Mastercollection CS6
    Quicktime Player (Standard)
    Problem:
    I am currently missing the sidekick Adobe Media Encoder (AME), even though I succesfully can run After Effects and Premier Pro.
    I cannot locate the AME app anywhere on my hard drive to launch it manually.
    Steps/general information:
    I initially was able to run AME, after fixing another problem with launching it by deleting the ExportQuickTimeHost.bundle / QuicktTimeHost.bundle as I have described in another post (https://forums.adobe.com/message/7221143#7221143 – #26 is my post).
    Unfortunately, the presets for Quicktime (I needed prores) were missing, even after I have done a workaround, by copying prores-codecs into AME plugins, as described in this post: martin-thoburn.com » Install the Apple ProRES codec without Final Cut or ProApps
    The next time launching QuickTime, I was not able to open it again.
    I uninstalled, reinstalled and updated After Effects and Premier Pro three times now and took away the QuickTimeHost.bundle from AME and Premiere Pro
    I also tried resetting ACL (through Utilities, when starting the MacBook with option key pressed down) as suggested by Seth Goldin in the post https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1010136
    I already tried wiping down the whole Adobe Suite, using the Cloud Cleaner Tool, delete the presets in the user library and then reinstall the apps: Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign, Acrobat, After Effects and Premiere Pro. There is now only the CS6 (and not for example some CC apps) on my Computer. All apps are up to date.
    I didn't install any other codecs by accident.
    Since AME was again not launching (Splash screen wasn't showing me any plugins, AME could have loaded). I simply deleted AME by trashing it.
    Now it's completely gone, even after reinstalling (and launching) After Effects and Premier Pro.
    By trying to install AME's updates (6.0.1 and 6.0.2) I naturally get an error message, since the main app is missing.
    I have battled with AME about half a year now, so things like reinstalling Lion and then Mavericks has occurred before as well.
    And unfortunately, I am in the middle of a big project, which is due in a month and two days. Hope the links are not too confusing
    – please look through them though, as the solutions I tried out are very clearly written in those posts.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Update in chronological order:
    I uninstalled the Cloud, which I kept for making updates; I also uninstalled everything from Adobe (CS6 mastercollection)
    I ran the Cloud cleaner tool
    I reinstalled only Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign, Premier Pro, After Effects and Acrobat. Bridge and AME were installed as sidekicks of Photoshop and AE/PP.
    So this has solved problem 1 already.
    On to problem 2 (update only):
    updated all adobe software, incl. DynamicLinkMediaServerRetail-1.0.1-mul-AdobeUpdate
    I installed Final Cut Pro 7
    I (re)installed Quicktime 7.6.6*
    I downloaded the Prores Presets for AME (as you suggested in post #2)
    I tried opening AME – that did not work, as it hung on the ExporterQuicktimeHost.bundle
    Went to AME app, right clicked on app icon to get "Show package content">Contents>Plug-Ins>Common and deleted ExporterQuickTimeHost.bundle and ImporterQuickTimeHost.bundle
    repeated last step with Premiere Pro and AE
    I opened AE
    I tried importing the presets through AME>import>presets... That did not work. I get this pop-up message:
    restarted my computer
    tried again to import AME without luck
    tried the solution of this discussion Re: Quicktime Export options are missing (only in AME) (post #8)
            since I noticed that mine was changed back after the reinstallation. No luck.
    restarted the computer again. No luck.
    Put back only the ExporterQuicktimeHost.bundle into AME's package content
    tried to open AME without luck
    removed the Quicktimebundle once more to open AME (worked)
    opened PP to check if I could export in queue: AME does not open by itself, still.
    I tried opening a prores file (end as .mov) that I encoded at university (not on my provate computer) – did not worl
    I checked if I could open a mov-file which was not encoded to prores: that worked.
    I looked into Martin Thoburn's method again to try one more time in AME to find the settings "Quicktime". No luck.
    I also have a third problem that may be linked to this, since it also has to do with PP and AE:
    Re: Can anyone help? "DynamicLink" not available attempting to open Mov in Photoshop CS6
    My post there is #22.
    But now that I absolutely made sure that I do have the prores codecs,
    I strongly suspect that it may also be a problem, which is discussed here:
    Are the ProRes codec and .MOV file no longer supported?
    ...namely, that the codecs are just not visible. Unfortunately, this discussion is not resolved either.
    HarleyTDavis's post #30 of this discussion Are the ProRes codec and .MOV file no longer supported?
    suggests something complicated (because I yet would need another Adobe version), which I may try at some point.
    Alright. That is all the effort that I can afford in time for this. I am too exhausted to go on so I'll do a workaround in FCP
    – now that I got it – and will ask someone else to encode my outcome to a prores-Version.
    If I feel like it – and yeah, I'd rather work with the Adobe Suite CS6 mostly – I'll come back to this discussion after a having clean wiped my computer and reinstalled everything.
    Thanks to both of you for looking into this with me. I'm positive this can be solved – just not now.

    I'm trying to reinstall Premiere CS6 and I notice that according to the Creative Cloud manager, in the app list, Premiere is still listed as being installed, which is now not letting me reinstall the app.
    How can I remove Premiere CS6 from this list? I used windows control panel to uninstall Premiere CS6 family and also the CC cleaner tool, but this app still appears in the CC admin app list. How can I remove this so I can reinstall?

  • I uninstalled PS CS6 (non-cloud upgrade) WinXP SP3 then downloaded and reinstall failed during SetUp.exe

    Review: I purchased non-CC upgrade from PS CS5>CS6 today at Adobe.com, downloaded and installed, seemed to work, but had problems after attempting ACR update that led to PS errors, so I uninstalled PS CS6 via control panel>remove>Adobe uninstaller. When I tried to reuse SetUp.exe or re-extract PS CS6 install files; all failed. Contacted support chat they said-download again that will work. That failed, too. Please advise on how to re-install PS CS6 upgrade on same machine where I removed it just hours before. OS: Win XP SP3
    Thanks, Paul

    Kglad,
    Thanks for your helpful reply. I ran the cleaner, checked the log (ok), then ran installer. The installer ran (1 am) and after a brief celebration I looked and PS CS6 was not visible. It did not completely install and no PS CS6 icons were visible--I should have know something was wrong when it did not ask for serial number. I did System Restore, and just ran the CC Cleaner again (targeting PS CS6, since I believe that I need to leave the PS CS5 on the computer for the upgrade to work. Is there anything else that I may need to do to reinstall successfully? I think that the ACR I tried to install caused a problem -- can I target ACR for cleaning / removal further? I have valid serial numbers: loaded PS CS5 from box upgrade yesterday and then bought PS CS6 upgrade also yesterday. Thank you for your good ideas! Paul

  • How to uninstall all CS6 apps at once

    Hi there
    Since the update yesterday to Creative Cloud my InDesign CS6 crashes on startup. In the CC-aqpp I see both the CS6 and CC version. I can't uninstall all CS6 apps at once & make a fresh start with the CC version do I? I can only uninstall the apps individually. And that costs me a lot of time!
    Anyone ideas or solutions? Thanks!

    Hi Peter,
    If CS6 is a suite like Design Standard CS6 then you can uninstall all the apps at once from Control panel>> Uninstall a program in Windows or Applications>> Utilities>> Adobe installers in Mac.
    However, if the software's were stand alone then you would need to uninstall all of them once by once from the same locations mentioned above.
    Thanks!

  • Help me please! Can't uninstall Photoshop Cs6

    I manully deleted Photoshop Cs6 from the Adobe folder (stupidly) and then I emptied the recycle bin and now can't uninstall Photoshop cs6. I know I need that file I deleted please help me get it back! I have tried that adobe cleaning tool. That didn't do anything..... Please I need all the help I can get!!!

    See theirs the problem. I have gotten the pre-release and I manually deleted it (stupidly) so when I try to download the photshop it always say error occured. So I redownloaded the pre-release again and I was going to see if I uninstall it and run the adobe cleaner do you think that might work? if so, how do I uninstall the pre-release version?

  • How can I uninstall the CS6 beta when there is no entry in W7 Programs & Features?

    I checked the FAQs and found general instructions which presume there is an entry in W7 Programs & Features.  There is no entry in my system, and I found no Uninstall app in any Adobe CS6 folder.
    Should I just run the Cleanup tool?  Thanks...

    Instructions are prominntly displayed in the announcement at the top of the forum index page:

    Instructions for How to uninstall Photoshop CS6 beta prior to installing the final version:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/4361731#4361731
    Important: Do not attempt to manually uninstall or remove Photoshop CS6 beta by dragging folders to the Recycle Bin (Windows) or Trash (Mac OS). Doing so can cause problems with uninstallation, and installation in the future.
    With the Photoshop CS6 beta coming to a close and the 60 day trial period expiring, you'll be looking to uninstall the beta software from your system.
    It is recommended that you uninstall the Photoshop CS6 beta prior to installing the official release of Photoshop CS6.
    Uninstallation is easy, and can be done in just a couple steps depending on your Operating System.

  • How do I uninstall Adobe CS6 Creative Suite

    I have the Adobe CS6 Creative Suite installed and recently received CC. For the sake of harddrive space, I would like to uninstall the old CS6 programs and keep the CC versions. However, I cannot find the uninstall program for either the suite itself or any of the programs (Photoshop, etc.). What is the process of uninstalling the CS6 components?

    Please use the Cleaner tool to uninstall :

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

  • How do I uninstall Indesign CS6 trial?

    I installed ID CS6 trial to open files and save them to .idml, but now I go on with my CS5. How do I uninstall the CS6? Didn´t find an option in menus or Application Manager.

    On the Mac OS X go to Applications/Programme > Utilities > Adobe Installer and click on the Id CS6 uninstaller
    If this does not work us the Adobe Cleanup Tool script. If the uninstaller fails it shows you the link to that script.

  • Help Installing After Uninstalling Photoshop CS6

    Hello i am needing help. When i installed Photoshop it was flashing whenever i drew or selected a tool and stuff it would flash and photoshop would turn black then normal and it would keep doing that, ( I have Windows 8 Pro) and so i uninstalled Photoshop CS6 and then later on i needed it again so i tried reinstalling it but after it's done extracting it says it can't install because of some CameraRaw7 thing and i can't reinstall it PLEASE HELP!

    The flashing is from Win8 and the GPU driver.  Known problem but MS not doing much about it.  In mean time set GPU to Basic in preference/performance
    Camera raw is a plug in.  What is the error?
    FYI uninstalling and reinstally rarely solves the problems.
