Will CS6 delete my CS5 base program? Can I revert if necessary?*

I love the CS5e version that I am using now. I am new(er) to the CS5 line and am just now starting to discover the vast possibilities that it has to offer. As I am starting to delve deep into all of the command strutures, shortcuts, blending modes and mostly photo correction and editing. I am excited to see the upgrade of CS6 to include camera RAW 7. I am also a lightroom user and as LR exports to Photoshop as Raw 7, it has to render in LR first. With CS6 and RAW 7 this shoudl be a latteral and seamless export. I am concerend about the cost. As I just bought the extended version last year of CS 5e, I may not be able to afford the complete upgrade package of CS6 when it is released in June. Will I be able to revert back to CS5.5 without data loss? I know my presets will be lost, but those can be loaded via flash file. Does CS6 overwite CS5 or is it a seperate program such as LR, PS elements, ect? I am told by Adobe that we can utilitze all of the BETA features of CS6 until the release date and after that will be required to either upgrade or purchase the full version. I have no idea (nor does anyone) know what the upgrade from CS5e to CS6 will cost. Will there be a CS 6 extended version such as CS5 and CS5 evtended?

I recently bought LR 4 to enhance my photos with the ACR 7 format. I can have LR render the photos to CS5 (raw6) and I see no difference. As I don't really use the 3D feature in CS5 extended, it would not break my heart if I didn't have them in CS6. I am not sure what other features will be included in the CS6 extended version. I purchased the Student Teachers edition of CS5 extended last year, so I am hoping that I will be afforded the same opportunity as the general public when upgrading. I still qualify for the Student/Educators discount but have yet to get any information. I have asked Adobe and they (customer service) tell me they are not sure yet. I would think that Adobe would want to support the education community by getting the new software in the hand of the people who teach the future Adobe users how to utilize the program. One would think that the ACR7 format would be a version upgrade for CS5 to be more compatible with LR4. I suppose this is why it is still in BETA testing. From what I can gather, there are to be no additional features added for the anticipated release in June. I am sure there will be "hotfixes" and bug updates though. As I use several photo editing suites and composition programs, I just hope that CS6 will be just as compatible with CS5 for saving and converting formats. With LR4, the DNG format seems to be a universal "RAW" format that works well. One can only hope that the industry will follow the lead of Adobe and keep pace.
Thank you for your answer. I am jsut concerned about the final pricing and want to have the capabitility of reverting back to CS5 if the option to purchse CS6 is beyond my means. I have 1000's of photos stored between the two programs and would be devistated if they were not available if I choose to revert.

Generally this should work, but of course there may be occasional compatibility issues across the different programs and their different versions.

Can't sync Outlook calendar because iTunes says all apps will be deleted

When I try to set up iTunes to sync my Outlook calendar I am getting a dialogue box that says my apps will be deleted if I continue. Can anyone help please? The same thing happens if I want to sync a folder with photos too.

Thanks, but it only connects to 1 PC. When I launch iTunes and my iPad is connected, it says it is syncing/ backing up.
The dialog box I am getting when trying to configure it to syc my outlook calendar says: "Are you sure you want to remove 26 Apps from the iPad? This will delete these apps and their data from the iPad"
Perhaps this does not matter, if they can be restored easily? Can I do this?

I have changed settings on my email account with my provider, but in order to activate the address they instructed me to delete my account and add a new account with the same email address. Will this delete my all my email history? Any advise please?

I have an OS X 10.6.8 and have had problems with my mail. I have changed my account settings with my mail provider, but they suggest I now delete my account and add a new account with the same email address. Will this delete my email history? Can anyone please advise?

I have the same problem as the emails go to my iCloud account that I cannot access!!! I cannot answer the security questions as someone else must have set up my iCloud account. Nothing seems to work. It would be great if someone has some ideas as what can be done to recover the situation?

HT5639 At present I have Windows programs installed using parallels 7. I now wish to delete all Windows based programs and revert the hard drive back to its original state ie single partition. How do I go about it??

At present I have windows based programs installed using parallels 7 on my Imac. I now wish to delete all the Windows programs etc and revert the Hard Drive to its original setting i.e single partition. How do I go about it??

It's not clear if you installed Windows in a virtual machine or you installed Windows in Boot Camp but you run it in Parallels.
If you installed Windows in Boot Camp, open "Boot Camp Assistant" (it's in /Applications/Utilities) and follow the steps to restore your hard disk into one volume. If you installed Windows on a virtual machine, just open Parallels and delete the virtual machine where you have installed Windows

I own CS4, upgraded to CS5, then joined CS6, CC... and now I installed CC14. Which will be the best way to delete or uninstall the programs I don't need keeping only CC14 without running into issues? I have an Alienware Area 51 PC running Windows 7.

There is none. Whatever you do to get rid of the older versions will inevitably do damage to shared components and other stuff of the new versions as well. That's just how it is with this approach... Uninstall the older versions, run the cleaner tool then reinstall CC 2014.

How do I delete creative cloud so I can open CS6?

I purchased CS6 in April, after canceling my subscription to creative cloud. And now a pop-up comes up when I try to get into my CS6 applications, telling me that I need to renew my creative cloud membership. So I am not able to open the CS6 files anymore. I've been told by somebody at Adobe that I need to delete the creative cloud applications and files from my computer to stop the pop-ups, however, I thought I had done this and now I can't find the creative cloud files anywhere on my computer. Am I missing something? I just spent a ton of money on CS6 and now creative cloud is preventing me from using it.

After calling and recalling 6 different people at Adobe, I finally found a solution. It's too complicated to explain on here but what you should do is call Adobe and tell them that a pop-up keeps coming up saying you need to renew your subscription and that you need to figure out how to delete the creative cloud programs from your computer. They will have you go to utilities on your computer and uninstall creative cloud programs and then go from there. You have had yours a lot longer though so I don't know if you still have the serial number. I still had mine so when i re-downloaded the program i entered the serial number I had and it worked. The issue is that the creative cloud programs that I had once had on my computer weren't properly uninstalled and deleted so it was blocking my ability to use creative suite. I hope this helps a little. Definitely don't give up calling adobe because eventually you'll reach someone who knows how to solve it. This forum just is not supportive enough for this type of issue in my opinion. it's much better to have someone on the phone talking you through it.

My Itunes says there is a corrupt file and will not open (IMac 2010). I couldn't fix it by reinstalling ITunes so I moved ITunes to trash. It will not delete from my trash as it is saying "Japanese.lproj" is in use. I have never opened or used "Japanese.lproj". I can't delete ITunes or open ITunes to close the Japanese.lproj, what do I do? Thank you for any help you can provide..

Interesting. This sort of thing is more common on Windows systems. Taken at face value, one of the iTunes program files (one of the Japanese language resources) is damaged.
I'd try running your Disk Utility over your startup disk. Does it find/repair any damage? If so can you empty your trash and reinstall your iTunes successfully now?

How to solve illustrator cs6 save as cs5 problem about the stroke(when the stroke with clipping mask and color is gradient, save as cs5 will change to embed ).

how to solve illustrator cs6 save as cs5 problem about the stroke(when the stroke with clipping mask and color is gradient, save as cs5 will change to embed ).

Because it was not possible to apply a gradient to a stroke in CS5. When you open the file in CS5, it is reduced to something that can be rendered in CS5.

Will CS6 Design Standard (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign) (also CS5 Photoshop Ext.) work in Apple OSX Yosemite?

Will CS6 Design Standard (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign) (also CS5 Photoshop Ext.) work in Apple OSX Yosemite?

What is wrong with Adobe that they do not address this situation. I work in a town that has a major design school and the students (who can't afford CC) are all out of luck running CS6 on the recent (Feb 1) update to Yosemite.
The whole Adobe community should be pressing them on this situation...as well as Apple. Don't these companies converse!

Computer deletes installed programs at will, will not delete others, they return at the next log-in

Computer deletes installed programs at will, will not delete others, they return at the next log-in. Some programs or hardware continue to operate even though you can't locate the programs or files on the computer. Will not disable some features when asked to.

hello Ebenholmes, is this affecting your whole pc (in this case the problem is probably beyond the capabilities of the forum - you might have to install & setup your operating system from scratch again) - or is it only a problem within firefox? in the latter case please refer to [[How to fix preferences that won't save]], especially the part about the user.js file within your profile folder....

An App is corrupt on my iPhone. It will not delete in the usual way (jiggle then X) and it prevents the sync from completing - how can I force its removal?

Hi, Anyone who has this problem: This is now resolved on my phone simply by the prudent timing of the phone software update to 7.1. This update cleared the corrupt map and loaded the original - all my cares went away !! It looks like a Restore would probably work as well, on this basis.
