Can I Install Adobe CS3 with previous versions installed?

[mickey79]

Ave,

I have Adobe Photoshop CS and Macromedia Studio MX 2004 installed on my PowerMac G5 Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard. I just recently got a 30 Day Trial DVD Set of the Adobe CS3 Master Collection Suite. I'd like to install & try it - but I don't want to remove or have any problems for my existing versions which are Full purchased versions. I may decide to just remove the CS3 after it's 30-Day Trial expires.

Is it possible to have these two software co-exist without interfering with each other?

Thanks!

I was running with CS2 and CS3 Design Premium installed on several different Macs and ran into no problems, with the exception of course of remembering to down save files back to CS2 when I needed to of course.

I have heard of folks having issues with CS3 and CS2 (or earlier) coexisting on one machine, but this is mainly due to not changing file handling with Get Info to the newer CS.
