going from MC 5.5.1 to 5.5.3... I've downloaded 5.5.3 from the Avid
web site, and opened the .dmg. In the folder there's an Uninstaller.
So the question is, in order to do the upgrade, do I have to run the
uninstaller and then reinstall the entire thing from the
AvidMediaComposer.pkg?

I answer:

On a Macintosh, use the Uninstaller that's ALREADY in your
Applications/Avid Folder to uninstall your current version 5.5.1.
Then install your new version 5.5.3. All should be well; you
shouldn't even need to re-enter the serial number/System ID info.
Mac upgrades contain complete installs; unlike PC upgrades.
