If you're that short on disk space (laptop, perhaps?) the time to uninstall older versions is before you install the latest one.
The Adobe uninstallers tend to damage newer installs when uninstalling the older versions. There are just too many similarly or identically named files in similar locations of each version.
If I were in your shoes now, what I would do is to uninstall all versions of Photoshop, including the latest one, look for, download and run the Adobe CSClean Tool, then install CS6 from scratch from the original media

TansySue Dec 21, 2013 2:58 PM (in response to station_two)I was coming to the same conclusion!
But as I bought CS6 as an update to CS5 I thought I needed it running on my PC when I did the download - Id I uninstall all the Adobe stuff now, I am thinking my upgrade purchase may not work?

station_two Dec 21, 2013 8:01 PM (in response to TansySue)ALL Adobe upgrades are full installers, they do not a previous version installed. If they don't find a qualifying previous version installed, they will simply prompt you for your old serial number as well as the new one.
As I said earlier, just uninstall all versions of Photoshop, including the latest one, look for, download and run the Adobe CSClean Tool, then install CS6 from scratch from the original media (DVD or download) and have both serial numbers ready.

TansySue Dec 23, 2013 2:03 PM (in response to station_two)Many thanks for your good advice. Bridge is now communicating with Photoshop - Phew!!! Thanks
I have done as you suggested. I already had a backup copy from when I downloaded CS6 earlier in the year and I have re-installed it. Strangely enough I wasn't prompted for my previous version licence no.
However I am still getting error messages which I thought might have been erradicated with these actions (Extension Manager 6.0.8 Update
Installation failed. Error Code: U44M1P7) and I now find the Text Tool doesn't work!After re-starting my PC the TEXT Tool is now working! There seems to be a bug in my PC!
I have discovered that the Error Code U44M1P7 relates to Extension Manager - I have no idea what this software is - so maybe I don't need it
