Updated to CC 2014 yesterday; all apps where installed in addtiton to the prev. versions. How can I clean up?

I did an update using CC Desktop of all my CC apps. Everything apparently went ok; no errors or warnings. But all my prior inatsallations wher kept in addition to the new ones. How can I uninstall/get rid of the older versions w/o loosing all my settings/prefs etc?
Also CC desktop suggests that I should instll Lightroom 5, which is already installed (and was updated to latest version yesterday, as well).
It seems that soemthing is wrong with either Air or CC desktop: how can I fix this?

Jeff, I've already read Julieanne Kost's blog post about this. I could understand this for the move from CS6 to CC last year, because there were a lot of changes under-the-hood, as well as several apps dropped from the suite (Fireworks, Encore). I'm not totally convinced this time round that the number of changes from the latest CC to CC 2014 justify a completely separate install. The only other explanation that I can come up with is that Adobe are not 100% certain that the new features introduced in CC 2014 will work correctly across all users' systems. If that is the case, then surely the answer would be to have an expanded beta-test program, then slip-stream them into users' existing CC installations. As it is, the way CC 2014 is being rolled out means a lot of extra work for users in terms on installation and setup. I'm speaking here as a fan of Creative Cloud - I really feel that this situation is not helping Adobe to sell the benefits of CC to those still on older versions of Creative Suite who have yet to be tempted by the subscription model.
