What is the proper procedure dor uninstalling and reinstalling CS5 extended?

I downloaded some trial plugins and then removed them and ever since, CS5 is not working well. Sometimes when I open it and go to file open to open an image, everything is grayed out and I have to close down and re-launch. When I open an image and want to look at the file info, everything freezes and I have to use task manager to close down photoshop. As well, my bridge is not working correctly. I want to uninstall and then reinstall, but I thought that somewhere that I read there are specific ways to do that or else the program thinks you're trying to load it on another computer..? Thanks for any help and dircetions/instructions that you can give me.

As a test, and perhaps an alternative to Uninstallin and Reinstalling PS CS 5, if you are on a PC, check to see if you have a System Restore Point, prior to the installation of those trials. If you do, then first - create a new System Restore Point for today, and then boot to Safe Mode. There, you should be presented with the option to Restore the System. Navigate to that System Restore Point, prior to the trails, and choose it. The system will then ask to be rebooted, after a few moments. Do so, and then test PS. Does that fix things?
On a Mac, I think that the equivilent of System Restore is something like Time Machine, but do not know if that is part of the Mac OS, or an add-on product.
Good luck,

  • What is the proper procedure to backup to multiple external hard drives if one wishes to rotate drives such that you may store one in a fire safe?

    Description:  If I want to back up to two external hard drives using Time Machine, what is the proper procedure to follow such that I could keep one attached to Time Machine for daily backups, and one that I attach monthly such that I can back it up monthly, and then store it in a fire safe.  To do this, what are the exact steps to follow?
    Research in Progress:
    I selected the "?" icon in Time Machine which took me to "Mac Help - Time Machine Preferences" section.  I reviewed this section, including the "Select Backup Disk, Select Disk, Add or Remove Backup Disk."  It says, "If you haven’t set up Time Machine, click Select Backup Disk to set up a backup disk. Repeat the steps for each backup disk you want to set up."  I did add two backup disks.  It goes on to say "If you already set up Time Machine, your backup disks are listed, and information about each backup disk is shown. To select, add, or remove backup disks, click Select Disk or Add or Remove Backup Disk."  Well, what is lacking here is what happens when you "Remove" the backup disk.
    As I have read this section, it raises additional questions:
    What are some cautionary statements.
    What happens after you remove a backup disk?  Will Time Machine recognize it later?
    What is the proper procedure for removing and ejecting one of your external hard drive when you use it with Time Machine?  What happens if you don't "remove" a backup drive and instead just drag it to the "trash can, i.e. eject it" and later reconnect it.?

    Time Machine supports multiple backup drives including network area storage volumes (NAS) as well as physically-connected external backup drives.
    In , System Preferences, Time Machine, add the second drive by clicking Select Disk.
    All available connected drives including connected network drives are displayed.
    Select the additional drives, one at a time.
    Connected Network drives are displayed on the desktop only when actively being used by Time Machine for backup.
    When prompted, select 'use both' when adding the second drive.
    Then choose Select or Remove at the bottom of the list of available devices and network volumes to add additional drives.
    Time Machine then automatically rotates backups among the available designated devices and volumes.
    If the drive is physically not present, Time Machine skips to the next available backup drive.
    To DISMOUNT a drive to take it off-site, it is NOT necessary to remove it from the Time Machine preferences.
    When the drive is NOT in use, dismount it by Command+clicking that Drive icon on your desktop (or in Finder) and then "Eject".
    That's it.
    After 10 days with no backups to a given device, Time Machine does display a message and (as I recall) asks if you want to remove that drive from the rotation.
    You can never be too rich or have too many backups!

  • What is the correct procedure to connect and collect events from IPS through SDEE

    What is the correct procedure to connect and collect events from IPS through SDEE?
    We are a 3rd party application, that needs to collect and analyze the IPS events for a client.
    Currently the approach we are following is
    1) get a SubscriptionId using the URL below
    https://IP_Of_IPS/cgi-bin/sdee-server?action=open&events=evIdsAlert&force=yes
    This gets us a subscriptionId which is used in step 2
    2) Collect events from the url below
    https://IP_Of_IPS/cgi-bin/sdee-server?confirm=yes&action=get&subscriptionId=sub-sample&startTime=1362699903575432000
    a few more notes here are
    - starttime is current time in nanoseconds
    the peculiar problem here is that, even though we specify todays date, SDEE returns us the events from mid Feb (today is march 7)
    we did try a few combinations, but are out of ideas.
    any help or direction would be appreciated

    This is more an application issue than an IPS issue.
    Have you compared your app against other apps [IME]?

  • What is the proper way to lift and move a 27" iMac?

    What is the proper way to lift and move a 27" iMac? Can the stand get bent if supported under its thin edge while carrying it? thanks, Kevin

    The stand isn't all that thin, but the best way is to pick it up with both arms around the screen holding the screen to your chest. Cradle the screen in your arms where your elbows are bent. The screen is then supported by your forearms and hands.

  • TS1717 My itunes won't open and I get message that says "The file iTunes library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes." I am unsure what this means, but I have uninstalled and reinstalled the itunes, and it still will not

    I receive the message: The file "iTunes library.itl"cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes. I do not know exactly what this means.  I have Windows 7 on my computer and was able access itunes until just recently.  I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes multiple times and that does not work.  Sometimes I can get in when immediately after installing, but then if I close it, i cannot get back in. Now, i can't get in at all.

    That message is usually a sign that you tried to roll back to an earlier build of iTunes, but occasionally I've seen it connected to a new upgrade. This technique should fix things.
    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

  • I have applied the "MSVCR80.dll" fixes (uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes), but I am still having problems.

    I have applied the "MSVCR80.dll" fixes of uninstalling and reinstalling iTune in the proper order, several times, but I stall have a problem.  When I launch iTunes, my computer will freeze, task manger says that Itunes has stopped responding and the CPU reading in task manager pegs at 100% usage.  After about 10 minutes the iTunes start running again and the cpu drops back to normal.  I can get to the apple store without freezing.  However, iTune will not display my iPod or iPhone in the sidebar.  And when I plug th the iPod and iPhone into my desk computer I get a error meassage. 
         "This ipod cannot be used because the required software is not installed.  Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes then install 64-bit version of iTunes"
    This I have done three times with the same result.
    What next?

    It froze on start up, then ran, did not see the plugged in iPod or iPhone, and gave me the same "this iPod cannot be used because..." message.
    I also ran the iTune Diagnostic.  It said the the iPod Services " and "Apple Moblie Device" are not running.  So I followed the Help instructions (see Link  for AMD below)  For restarting "iPod Services" everything when per instructions, but it did not fix my iTune problems.   The "Apple Moblie Device" restart was a problem, because I could not find the AMD file in the Service folder.
    Hmmm. Let's try swapping out your AMDS.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, does your device connect without that message now?

    I don't think you have to sign out; just uninstall. (Do it from within the Creative Cloud app; should be a cogwheel icon next to Photoshop.) Think the only reason you would sign out is if you intend to use PS CC on another system. (Up to 2 registered systems if I recall.) You can then reinstall using the Creative Cloud app.

  • What is the proper procedure to merge different appln's into a single appln

    Hi,
    My question is to Frank and Shay.
    We are having 2 different applications being developed at 2 different locations.
    Now I need to merge them, I have noted the following steps which are to be taken care of, for the procedure to work.
    However is there anything else I need to do, or should the steps be done differently.
    Please advise.
    Considering a basic example we have:
    Application1 with 2 projects namely Proj1 and Proj2
    Application2 with projects called Proj3 and Proj4
    1) Project level: Have all the 4 projects in the same application folder. and set dependencies in the project context so that they can access each other's objects
    2) faces-config.xml: Have all the different files in the same /WEB-XML folder, and register them in the web.xml file
    Note:
    Assuming I have 3 faces-config.xml files
    a) faces-config1.xml
    b) faces-config2.xml
    c) faces-config3.xml
    If i have a common Home-page defined in faces-config1.xml; and the same page is referenced in the next file (faces-config2.xml).. so is the application intelligent enough to recognize the redundancy or should something else be done.
    3) Application module: Register the different application modules with one-another.
    Note: Should all the application modules be present in the same directory folder, cause moving the modules from their initial positions will cause problems, can the modules still be bound together from their original positions
    Finally is this all i need to do or are there more steps involved.
    Kindly post any and all of your suggestion.
    Thanking you,

  • When i try to open the itunes store in itunes,windows closes it after not finding a solution for the problem.I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Itunes software. I am running Win 7-with IE10-any help?

    When I selected the Itunes store on my win PC today-the program was closed by windows with windows saying there was a problem. I tried a couple of times and then uninstalled the itunes software and reinstalled it with the same results. The program has always worked before but I have not used it recently since the Ipad now receives it's software updates right off the router. I am running Win 7 with IE10. Anyone with the same problem?

    My post has been viewed 24 times, and yet have had no answers. I have always like adobe products, however if this is the type of support they offer, I will never purchase another product of theirs. The issue I am having is the same issue many others have had, and yet no answer. Poor customer service!

  • Can I transfer CC for Teams membership (Photoshop) to a new user on the same machine without uninstalling and reinstalling software? i.e. one user left new user started needing the same software.

    We have Creative Cloud for Teams, most users using Photoshop.  One user left the company and has been replaced by another user.  I removed the first user's membership and assigend it to the new user.  When she runs Photoshop, she gets a 00 Days left message.  Photoshop still seems to be useable right now but I'm wondering if I need to uninstall Photoshop and re-install it using her credentials?  Seems like a lto of unnecessary work to me.

    Hi Batterry,
    There is no need for removal of the product . You can simply launch the product , click on Help>Sign out . Close the product and sign in with the new user's Adobe ID & Password. This should activate the product .

  • What's the best way to erase and reinstall Lion?

    I'm a little confused by the various posts I've read about erasing and reinstaling lion. 
    My MBP is about 4 years old.  I upgraded to lion last summer and it never worked great, but over the last 3-6 months its been dragging.  I want to start fresh.  I've uploaded all of my personal files to a sky drive and then copied all of my extremely irreplaceable photos to two other hard drives.  Now I'm just fuzzy about my next step.
    I've read I need to make a boot disk, or a thumb drive or I can do it right from my system.  I don't care which way or what I need, but I want it fresh with no chance of curroption.
    Thanks for any and all direction.

    While we all have MacBooks in this forum most of us don’t run Lion. There's a Lion Support Community where everybody has Lion. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer. https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.7_lion
