Want to uninstall CS6 trial, but CS4 is gone

I was opening some old photos when I got a message that said I had to download an update.  Photoshop would not open without this update.  I fugured it was some security thing or other and now find that it has upgraded me to a CS6 trial.  I don't want it and will NEVER pay a monthly rental for something installed on my hard drive, but it seems to have overwritten the CS4 I had installed.
It's given me the option to uninstall the trial, but am I then going to have to reinstall CS4?

Every version of Photoshop has a different default install path.  You can have many version of Photoshop installed on a machine, Each Photoshop version is independent from the others versions of Photoshop.  If the CS6 installer overlaid your CS4 installed you must have change where  the CS6  installer installed CS6 and had it overlay CS4.
No CS4 update would update CS4 to CS6 and a CS6 Upgrade would leave CS4 intact.

    Go to this microsoft site http://support.microsoft.com/kb/312172 and/or this microsoft site http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2398768.  I would suggest removing both to start with a clean slate.  I had some problems with installing Office for Mac 2011 over 2008 and found out that by completely removing both and starting from a clean slate provided the best solution.  Kappy is correct but some sniglets do get left behind.  Hope this helps.  Cheers.

  • Installed CS6 trial but still want to open with CS4

    I recently installed InDesign CS6 (Windows) as a trial, but I still want InDesign CS4 to be the default for opening documents. However, when I go to the Open As menu, ID CS4 does not appear. When I browse through Program Files and select C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS4\InDesign.exe, it points me to ID CS6. Which is incredibly annoying, since the program I selected was Definitely not CS6.
    So is there a way to force Windows to associate indd files with CS4 instead of CS6 without uninstalling the trial?

    You can edit the registry manually (there are directions in some other threads here, if you search), but that will cause trouble when you start working in CS6 since all of the new files will open with "Missing Plugin" errors that cannot be resolved since CS4 can't open files from anything newer.
    I open the correct application first, then use File > Open... instead of trying to use a double-click, but you can purchase the Soxy plugin from Rorohiko.com which will intercept the open commands and automatically use the version from which the file was saved if it is installed.

  • I'm trying to uninstall PSCS6 trial but the "uninstall" app isn't opening?

    So the PSCS6 trial ended awhile ago and I am planning on buying the full version soon, but I have to uninstall the trial before I do. I have tried restarting my computer, but the uninstall app still isn't opening. What should I do? \(T^T)/
    PS: I'm using a MAC.

    Bummer!  You should have uninstalled on the day before the end of the trial.    The Uninstaller is also subject to the trial period limitations.
    If you plan to buy a full license, you don't have to uninstall the trial version at all.
    It's exactly the same binary you'd be getting anyway, and it's the same binary for the Extended and Standard version of Photoshop.  It's your serial number ("key") that turns it into either Standard or Extended.
    I'll bet that if you attempt to launch your expired trial version, it will prompt you for a valid license number or to buy the license.  So when you have bought the license, just input the serial number there and you're good to go.
    If you're absolutely itching to delete the trial version, and provided you have no other CS applications (any version or flavor or CS), then just drag the Photoshop folder to the trash, empty the trash can, and then run the Adobe CS Cleaner Tool, which you must locate on the Adobe site and download.  The Cleaner Tool will (should) get rid of all the other components scattered by the CS6 installer all over your HD.
    Hope that helps—at least to put you at ease. 
    Enjoy your Mac.  Typing "MAC" reveals you are relatively new to the Mac, congratulations!. It's Mac for Macintosh. 

  • Deleted the CS6 trial, but App Manager thinks I still have Photoshop and Illustrator installed.

    I had previously installed, used, and then deleted the Photoshop and Illustrator CS6 trials. I recently subscribed to the Creative Cloud, but when I try to install Photoshop and Illustrator from the Adobe Application Manager, it just says they are "Up to Date," but I can't find them anywhere on the Mac or the Applications folder like they used to be.
    Do I need to delete a file or folder somewhere else for the App Manager to realize I don't have them installed anymore?
    Thank you for your help.
    I am currently running OS X, 10.8.2, 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5 with 4GB RAM.

    Run the Adobe Cleaner Tool then try downloading via the AAM again.

    See [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox Uninstalling Firefox - MozillaZine Knowledge Base]
    It contains instructions on how to manually remove Firefox if the uninstaller does not work.
    Could the virus have infected your profile folder (location where Firefox stores bookmarks, passwords, cookies and other user data), if it has you may want to remove the profile folder as well, but will lose all of your user data.

  • Uninstalling CS5 Trial causes CS4 problems

    I uninstalled Photoshop CS5 trial and had to do repair installations of Photoshop CS4 and Acrobat 9. But Bridge CS4 is still missing.
    I don't want to mess up anything else so what should I do?

    Very odd though - even though I deleted all the folders, in the Documents folder and in the Program Files,  when I reinstalled CS3 (after uninstalling and rebooting) - I went to the File>Place and choose the .rtf file I usually import and it had still retained the Mapping of the Styles.
    There was no RTF Import folder in the Documents, and I had completely erased the original CS3 folder in the Program files.
    So where else is data stored for InDesign? If it's not the Document>Application Data folder or the Program files folder?

  • How to uninstall CS6 trial?

    I am having the worst time trying to unistall the trial of CS6 and restore my computer to working order.  As the trial expired, there is now a constant screen for me to enter the serial number for the dammn thing.  When I try to quit and exit, it goes away but then every other icon on my desktop has changed to an Adobe like icon, and it takes me to the same screen to enter the serial number telling me that the trial has expired!  I cannot delete/uninstall the program from Windows control panel either!  There is no explanation anywhere on how to deal with this issue.  I need some help and step by step guidance, please?

    Just to be sure, I'm adding brief instructions to initiate an uninstall.
    1. In the Control Panel, select Uninstall or Change a program.
    2. Locate Master Collection in the list and select it
    3. Right-click and choose Uninstall. The uninstaller will start. Follow the on-screen instructions to remove the software.
    If you see any errors, please post the details of the errors. That will help folks here give you a more relevant answers.
