[Leica] OT: Adobe CS3 beta removal

[hoppyman at bigpond.net.au (G Hopkinson)]

Adam, I have a PC, not a Mac, but I did install the CS3 beta, over CS2 
premium. When I uninstalled it, (yes I did like some new
features) it broke the Bridge functions in CS2. I went through all of the 
recommended help procedures and the final fix required a
complete reinstall of the entire suite. Plus required a call to Adobe as I 
my CS2 was an upgrade, and it would not recognise the
qualifying CS suite that I offered (I was clean installing and inserting the 
qualifying CD at the right time). So it cost me about a
day all up.
Yes I did pass on the details to Wade who advised the appropriate folks. 
Maybe that PDF says, some users experienced......." 

Cheers
Hoppy

If, like me, you're about to install Adobe's CS3 suite and have had
the Beta installed you might want to consult the note from Adobe about
precisely how to do it.

I've read it and it must have been written in Japan, translated to
German, and then translated into English by someone at Leica. Okay,
it's just moderately confusing.

You can read about it here:

Hmmm....that's for Mac only....the PDF file that comes with the
download has instructions for Windows as well so I'm sure there's more
out there.

There's a rather alarming warning about doing a full backup of your
system disk and the possibility of destroying all your data if you
don't follow the instructions in exquisit detail.(see note about
instructions above).

Be safe out there!

Adam
