Creative Cloud App Won't Install CC Apps or Update CS6 Apps

I have the CS6 Master Collection installed on my Mac. I just updated to the new OS X Mavericks 10.9 hoping that might solve the problem, but the Creative Cloud app still is NOT working.
The app tells me I have updates, and gives me the option to add the CC apps for the Creative Suite, but gets to maybe 42% and then gives a general error.
The pop up window error says:
Installation failed.
Errors encountered during installation (7).
And when you click on More Information, all you get is this:
Exit Code: 7
Please see specific errors below for troubleshooting. For example, ERROR:
-------------------------------------- Summary --------------------------------------
- 0 fatal error(s), 0 error(s)
which tells me nothing.
I am not able to do anything with Creative Cloud, except to update the Creative Cloud app itself every few days. The CC desktop app (which runs from my top menu bar) is up to date, but still doesn't work.
How do I get the app to work and update my CS6 apps and install the CC collection?
Thank you!

"Exit Code :7" is not what you need to look up. See the screenshot below for my error code.
I looked up "Error: DF024" and below is the link and a screenshot of what it said on the Creative Cloud help page.
Error DF024 installing Creative Cloud products | Mac
I changed the name of my "Recommended" folder to "Recommended_backup". I then reinstalled and got the same error. I reread the code and realized that the path for my error is slightly different than what is listed on the Creative Cloud Help page. Instead of a path of "Library/Colorsync/Profiles/Recommended", mine actually read "Library/Colorsync/Profiles/Profiles". This time I went into the folder and changed the name of of the "profiles" folder to "profiles_back-up" and it worked!!!!!!
Below is what my folder looks like after a successful install of Illustrator CC. The 2 folders highlighted in yellow are the folders that I renamed and the 2 green highlighted folders appeared after installation.

Creative Cloud Desktop Won't Install Issues on Mac OS X 10.8.4

I recently upgraded from CS6 to CC. First round of installs no problem. A week later there were a few updates including the CC Destop App and this is where the fun begins. I installed the updates and immediately after I noticed it was only showing I had 3 apps installed when I have several. I tried uninstalling the CC Desktop app and re-installing it but I can't get it to install. Every time I try it just says you have an "unknown error". I called Adobe's awesome support to which we ran throught diganostics only at the end to tell me they are having issues and to call back later. I have been all over the forums and have yet to find a solution, nothing works (Including runing the cloud cleaner and renaming the OOBE file).
I am running OS X 10.8.4 any other suggestions or help will be much appreciated

Romsinha! Thank you! I was having this problem and your instructions helped solve the issue.
Hi iChrisChatt,
Please try the mentioned steps:
1. Navigate to Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installer and look for CC desktop, if present run the uninstaller to uninstall it.
2. Navigate to Applications/Utilities and look for Adobe Application Manager folder and Creative cloud folder. If present move to trash and empty it.
3. Navigate to Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE and rename to OOBE.old
4. Download CC desktop from: https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud and try to install again.

Romit Sinha

Creative Cloud application won't install in the right disk

Hello,
I rencently downloaded Creative Cloud for Desktop and, when I'm trying to install Lightroom 5 to my secondary hard drive (D:), Creative Cloud ignores the setting and goes to the C: drive location (which is an almost full SSD).
Is there any way to force the download to my other drive as it seems CC don't care about its preferences?
OS : Windows 8 Pro x64 with Media Center

Jeff, OK, I'll reinstall - it'll probably have to wait till next month, because of my bandwidth allowance, but I can live with that.
Regarding the other error, I didn't give enough information, sorry: after I installed InDesign and PS, I started them up and got a prompt from the CC app to fill in some details on the Adobe website. So I filled them in and got that error, no matter what I tried. If I clicked "Use the above address", it returned to the page with the form anyway.
Edited to add: I logged in again this morning and found the "My Information" page on the Adobe website - it's not complaining about the address now. I don't know if it means the problem went away or it's a different page (it looks different), but everything seems to be working at the moment.

Creative Cloud trial won't install

I want to download an Indesign trial, but in order to do so I have to download Creative Cloud. I downloaded the setup file but when I run the installation it keeps on saying " the remote server is not responding in a proper manner". What is wrong? What am I supposed to do?
Thank you!

I've been having nothing but problems getting indesign installed. after a month of tech support run-around, i just gave up.

Creative Cloud Installer won't install.

I've got a subscription to Photoshop CC and noticed that it doesn't appear to be up-to-date. I go to the Adobe website, to the downloads section, to see about manually downloading the latest version, but instead of getting a link to download Photoshop, it gives me a link to download the Creative Cloud installer. Fine. I download the package, open the disk image and run the installer. It begins downloading the Creative Cloud desktop application (which I apparently don't already have), getting about halfway through the progress bar before disappearing without a trace. I've since tried following the instructions for manually uninstalling Photoshop by running the uninstaller in the Utilities folder. It tells me that it needs to download the Creative Cloud installer, and I'm back to square one.
I'm on a mid-2009 Macbook Pro running OS/X 10.9.5. Is there anything I might have missed?

Here are the screen grabs:
1. Downloading the CC installer package. No problems there.
2. Running the CC installer package. So far so good.
3. After about 2 minutes, the progress bar gets to about the halfway point.
4. Then it just vanishes into thin air. No error code, no warning, nothing. Just BOOP! and it's gone.
And everything else I try to do leads me back to this. If I try to uninstall Photoshop manually, it tells me that it's missing the Creative Cloud application and so I'm back to here.

Adobe Creative Cloud app not displaying already installed apps and can't install new apps Mac OS 10.9

Hi,
I've been using the new Adobe Creative Cloud 2014 for a couple weeks now perfectly fine, until yesterday. I use Photoshop, Illustrator, and After Effects quite extensively. This morning, I opened the Adobe CC app and all but Adobe Acrobat Pro show installed. The other already installed apps have buttons to "install" but clicking this button shows the "Exit Code: 7 - Unable to complete Silent workflow" error in the logs. Ive tried disabling my Sophos antivirus program and restarted several times. The already installed applications themselves seem to function normally, they open and work projects. I've even tried to uninstall one of the already installed programs (Bridge) and it fails to uninstall, saying I need to restart my computer and disengage my anti-virus, which I've done. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the Adobe CC app as well, and have the same result. Help.

So I've completed the solutions listed in the help article with no changes. Here is how it has gone with each solution listed in the article. Also, it is not clear in the article whether these steps are to be done in sequence or may solve the problem individually, but since Solution 1 fails for me, doing them in sequence was impossible.
Solution 1: Mac OS: Run the uninstaller in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder to remove the program listed as up-to-date.
This does not work because uninstalling any of these applications does not work. As I stated in the post, the uninstaller for all of my adobe applications (photoshop, bridge, indesign etc) throws the same error each time saying I need to: restart my computer (done) close all applications (done) and disable my antivirus (done, which was fully engaged when I installed the apps originally with no issue) and disable my firewall (done, I don't use one). Not sure what I'm missing on that, plus its a real bummer that I need to reinstall all of my CC apps even if the uninstaller did work because my creative cloud app won't recoginize they've been installed.
Solution 2: Remove the OPM.db file and relogin into the Creative Cloud desktop application using the Adobe ID tied to your subscription.
This did nothing.
Solution 3: Download and install the latest version of Adobe Creative Cloud desktop app from Creative Cloud for desktop.
This did nothing.
Solution 4: See the steps listed in Solution 1 to remove all installed Adobe Creative software. Once all Adobe Creative software has been removed, use the CS Cleaner Tool to ensure a complete removal. You can find details in Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6.
This did not do much because I can't uninstall the software to begin with.
What am I missing?

I can't install the Creative Cloud app for desktop...

I've tried several times to install the creative cloud app (or any other app for that matter), I can download it but it won't install. I'm using windows 7. This is the message I get ...
I've been to the customer support website and followed the instructions for minimising start up apps and anti virus software - no luck! I've just signed up for cloud membership and I'm losing my patience with this, could someone at Adobe please help.
Many thanks

I installed Photoshop CC (2014) yesterday through the Creative Cloud app. Now, when in Lightroom when I go to "edit in"and select Photoshop CC (2014) and click on "edit copy with Lightroom adjustments", it opens Photoshop CC (2014) but my photo doesn't show up? My photo does show up when I click on "edit copy" or "edit original".
How can I correct that so that I can open up a photo from Lightroom WITH the Lightroom adjustments? Thanks!

I'm having a similar problem, but only with jpg's. I have PS CS6, CC, and CC 2014. Other image file formats function normally with regard to the "open with" list. PS CC 2014 appears on the list. But with jpg's only PS CC appears on the "open with" list and 2014 can't be added by the browsing for it.
The curious thing is that if I have any of the three versions of Photoshop open, click on Photoshop CC in the "open with" list, the image opens in whatever version is already open on my computer. This is true of all image formats. No matter which version I pick from the "open with" list it opens in the currently running program. I use only the latest version so keeping it open all the time is an easy work around. I won't uninstall any of the earlier versions lest more file association quirks result. it would be nice to have this matter fixed.

Just updated via the creative cloud app and now lightroom won't even load.

As the title states:
I've just updated via creative cloud app, ran lightroom from the standard shortcut on m desktop and got 5.7. Exited that and tried to run from the new shortcut. No load.
Thought it might be to do with still having 5.7 installed, so uninstalled that via creative cloud app and it still wouldn't load. Noticed that the creative cloud app still showed lightroom as being installed (5.7 had disappeared on first uninstall). Selected uninstall again and this time it went from the installed section of the app to being an option to install.
Installed new version and it won't load.
Could someone please advise how to resolve this as I would like to be able to access my files and the changes I made.
Thankyou in advance,
Matt

How do I re-download Acrobat pro XI when Creative Cloud app thinks it's still installed?

I've been having no end of grief with Creative Cloud on my late 2009 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7 iMac, running OS X 10.9.2. It slows my finder redraw down so that sometimes it takes 5 minutes to display the contents of a folder in the finder.
So a couple of months ago I removed the Creative Cloud app from my machine, and things started running smoothly again except I was unable to update the rest of my CC apps.
Needing to update the Camera Raw plugin for Photoshop CC, I reluctantly reinstalled the Creative Cloud app, which refused to recognise that I had a bunch of Adobe apps installed (Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, Acrobat, Bridge) ... all except Lightroom, which it recognised. So I uninstalled all my apps and re-downloaded them through Creative Cloud so CC would 'see' that I had the apps. Not so easy with Acrobat XI: I had problems opening it so I went through the 'Uninstal Acrobat XI' app in the Acrobat folder, and now Creative Cloud thinks it's still installed and therefore I can't download a fresh copy.
Should I go through the rigmarole of uninstalling Creative Cloud again and run the risk of it losing track of all my other apps once again, or is there another way to work around this? Every time I try to download from the Adobe site it launches Creative Cloud...
Hoping someone can shed some light on this for me please.

With the help of Adobe support, I signed out of Creative Cloud and signed back in. Although I'd done this yesterday with no result, it worked this time and I'm currently reinstalling Acrobat.

I am trying to install Creative Cloud app for Desktop and it's shutting down

Trying to install the Creative Cloud app for Desktop but every time I try the Adobe Application Manager shuts itself every time. I have OS X Yosemite 10.10.1
If it is automatically installed, where do I find it? I don’t think it has installed because the Application Manager shuts itself so fast every time.

Hi Jeff,
Thanks for your reply.
I went into Applications> Utilities but there is no Adobe Installers folder or icon there for me to do anything with. I went back to my Adobe account front page and tried to download Illustrator again seeing as it hasn’t installed but when Application Manager tries to open (the little spinning icon) it spins about 3 times before I get a pop up saying that Adobe Application Manager has failed to open. This happens every time I attempt to download Illustrator. Any other options for what might be the issue?
Thanks again!

How many computers can I install my Creative Cloud apps on? May 5, 2012 5:57 AM -- Cloud Busted!!!!

Ok so i was just about to sign up for the cloud... having big problems with the Application Manager not being able to connect to the Interent (???) and re-directed to Customer Service. S aw this question about how many machines one can install on... blown away by Adobe's answer... 2!!!
2? Two? Deux??? Are you guys for real? This is 2013... we have many more than 2 devices... the subscription should be for me, not my machines.
I suppose i do notunderstand the meaning of a Cloud based Solution. Is it me or is Adobe out to lunch on this one? And b4 the Adobe ppl respond telling me to 'review the licensing agreement' like it the original (locked) post... perhaps it is you, Adobe people, who should review your licensing agreement!!! I see no reason to pay Adobe for a Cloud Solution now. It serves no purpose that I can see. Unfortunate... re-tool it Adobe and get back to me.

Hi pacman,
You can install the creative cloud apps on as many device as you want, but simultaneously you will be allowed to use only 2 device at a time as per EULA(end user license agreement).
You can contact Adobe support they will let you know more about the creative cloud membership.
