I think there is an uninstaller in the Adobe folder Tom but with the Mac, uninstall is fairly simple although perhaps not 100% but then I don't think Adobe uninstallers are 100%... There will be hidden files and some scattered around the libraries.

On a Mac simple select the file to remove and press cmd+delete or drag to the trash. In 'Application Support' in your library folder, find the Adobe files and remove the Ps5 versions.

If you don't see the library folder on your Mac, in a finder window, select the 'Go' Menu, then press the 'alt' key, which will reveal the Library link in the menu.


Thanks, Robert.

I think I am safe with that process as far as removing just CS5 goes, but what I am worried about is keeping all the licenses for plug-ins straight.

They all worked fine when I selected the install for CS5 that deleted CS4 but I remember the mess I had with an earlier version when I ran the two side by side and then later deleted the early version.

Your new Color efex is a good example of a complicated plugin. It will transfer fine if you move it when you install CS6, but what happens when you install CS6 side by side???

Maybe it is simpler than I think since all the apps are on the same mac, but I would like to be sure before trying to run both CS5 and CS6.

I'm pretty willing to wait (since there is not support for Fuji xpro-1 in ACR yet) until I hear most people who have installed CS6 on macs say they are not having any serious problems (I can live with arcane issues that don't really stop my workflow which is pretty simple).

Cheers,

Tom

OK, I get you now Tom, Probably de-install the plugins first then re-install with the later Ps6 installation.

I have an issue with the Nik Color efex plugins, they don't like Lion or Mountain Lion, which is my current OS... Bit of a show stopper for me. Maybe in time I will get updates.

Robert-

If you install CS6 and delete CS5 as part of the install, the NIK (and most other) plugins will transfer properly to CS6. The big problem comes from installing CS6 along side CS5, I think.

I have Lion on both my macs and all the NIK products are supported. I doubt that any of the complex plugins are yet set up for Mountain Lion.

If they will run in Lion then I think they will be Ok in ML. ML is a development of Lion, the big step was up to Lion, like Leopard and Snow Leopard.

I think the Nik plugin's I have are old, at v3.1. I have heard they are now at v4.



Bed, it's almost 1am. ;-)

Robert-

I have ver 4. I think that is the only version that will work with Lion. Fairly reasonable upgrade prices for the whole suite and worth it if it will get you all the way to Mtn Lion, I think.

Cheers,

Tom

Yes you need v4 for 64bit operation.

Dont forget to DeActivate your CS5 otherwise you lose the ability to install somewhere else.

Doesn't the auto upgrade to 6 take care of that? You can only use the 6 upgrade with a 5 serial number and that will invalidate it, I think.
