Can you install AAMEE 2.1 and 3.0 on the same system?

I am rolling out a limited test of CS Suite 6.0, and have used 3.0 to package the files.  Everything went smooth.

However I needed to Roll a new depolyment of my 5.5 suite and it looks like teh AAMEE 3.0 overwrote my 2.1

Question 1:  Can you use 3.0 to package Creative suite 5.5?

if not:

Question 2:  Can AAMEE 2.1 live on the same system as AAMEE 3.0?

All systems in question are Mac OS X 10.6.8 or 10.7.4 all upgraded to the latest versions of software.

Thanks so much.

    Hi,

    AAMEE 3.0 does not supports Creative Suite 5 or Creative Suite 5.5 family media. You should use AAMEE 2.1 for CS 5 or CS 5.5 media.

    AAMEE 3.0 should be used for Creative Suite 6 media only.

    AAMEE 3.0 and AAMEE 2.1 should be installed on different machines. They cannot co-exist on the same machine. Also, once you have installed AAMEE 3.0 on a machine you cannot roll back and install AAMEE 2.1 over it. So, you should use a fresh machine to install AAMEE 2.1.

    Hi,

    We understand your concern that is not convinient that AAMEE 2.1 cannot be installed on machine where AAMEE 3.0 is installed. we are currently working on utility to uninstall/remove AAMEE 3.0, so that you can install AAMEE 2.1

    thanks,
