Hi Patrick,

Give the Adobe Application Manager a shot. It is by no means ideal, but I have not had any problems so far in testing with version 1. You can find the download for it here:

Let us know if this solves your problem, or give you more ;)

Later,
Ken

It's because you're Flash Catalyst package is overwriting the license file. This license file (actually its two files, contained in /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PCD/) stores licensing information for all versions of Creative Suite.

The solution to your problem is to either remove that file from you Catalyst package, and license Catalyst manually on installs, or creative a licensing file that holds keys for both your CS4 and FC-CS5 license and deploy it separately.Alternatively, you can just install CS4 before you do your initial Composer scan to create the Catalyst package, this way the captured license file contains both licenses by this method as well.

My preferred method is to create a separate "Master" License File package that contains the license to everything I own. This way I can install any apps in any combination, as long as they fit our licensing model with Adobe, and not have to worry too much about licensing.

I hope this helps.

Thanks a bunch, how do we package the license files? Install everything
and capture just that location of files?

Thanks so much Sean, this worked great, how do I go about adding all my
serial #'s to the file? Do I have to load all my possible Adobe Apps to
have them enter into this file? We have 3 different flavors of CS4 that
we use. Master Collection, Des Premium and Design Standard.
