Adobe Story won't activate

Whenever I try to "Start using Story" from https://story.adobe.com/en-us/index.html, it says "Our servers are currently offline for scheduled maintenance", and it won't do anything.
It has been like this for weeks, and I don't see any maintenance announcement anywhere.
Is it really maintenance, or am I missing something?
Thank you.

I am a home user that uses FTTH with a wireless router.
I first tried it from each of my 3 computers through the router with its firewall turned off, then directly connected one of them without the router, but to no avail. The results were the same.
For testing, I reconnected my computer to the router and turned the firewall back on, and then tried downloading Adobe Premiere Elements 10 trial.
It asked for my Adobe ID, and I entered it. Then the download successfully started and completed.
I could still try another network when I have a chance, but from the above result, plus the fact that I usually don’t have any network problem, I hardly think my home network is the problem.
I wonder why I specifically can’t activate Story. Any idea?

  • Adobe Story won't open after update

    Hi,
    I updated Adobe Story this morning, and now it won't open online or offline. I've cleared my browser's cache, restarted my PC, but nothing seems to work. This is a major problem because I have deadlines for this afternoon, and now I can't access my work.
    Please help!

    Hi,
    When you launch the application, do you see the login page, or is it a blank gray page?
    If you were working online in your last session, you can access your account and all your documents from the browser application. https://story.adobe.com/
    Launch any browser(Firefox/IE/Chrome/Safari) and log into your account.
    We are investigating the issue and will let you know the update soon.

  • Adobe Story Won't Open Due to Various Error Message

    Hey there,
    I'm trying to log in to my Adobe Story desktop application, but I continue to get first this error message upon opening the software:
    [ErrorEvent type="error" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Unhandled exception Error: Error #3004" errorID=3004]
    Then upon putting in my login info and pressing enter am stuck on the Adobe Story CC sign in page. It let me through once and then said failed to get user preferences. Any thoughts on how to get back in?

    Hi,
    Apologies for the inconvenience. Are you able to log in from the web app (story.adobe.com) ?
    Also have you tried installing the AIR app again?
    Thanks

  • Adobe Story won't start

    Hi, I'm a new subscriber and am kinda alarmed by the first non-Photshop thing I try to use, doesn't seem to work.
    I'm trying to connect to Adobe Story, and when I log in and connect, the screen goes gray, there's the little "Adobe Story" dialog with a moving meter between-- and nothing else ever happens.
    This is Chrome on a Mac (10.8.3).
    Now, toggling on Developer Tools on Chrome and letting it run through has the last action as:
    https://story.adobe.com/profile.php?locale=en_US&code=<big string>
    showing up with a cancelled status (Though I did not actually cancel anything), after 3 redirects giving a 302 Moved Temporarily.

    Hi,
    Sorry for the inconvenience. Can you please try another browser (safari or firefox) and see if it works. Clearing cache on Chrome should also fix it (http://www.wikihow.com/Clear-Your-Browser's-Cache). Let us know if you still face an issue.
    thanks

  • Adobe story won't save my project.

  • Adobe Story not compatible with Google Chrome. Why?

    Google Chrome is my preferred web browser, but, alas, I realized that Adobe Story won't open in Chrome. So I'm now having to use two different browsers (Firefox and Chrome), one for general surfing the web and another just to use Story.
    Is there a specific reason Story doesn't support Chrome, or has support for it just not been added yet?
    Granted, this is hardly going to cause me to stop using Story, it's a great product after all, but it would be nice to be able to only use one browser.
    Thanks.

    Ignoring the warning and using it anyway works just fine. I've been doing it for a few months with no problems.
    However..."The support hasn't been added yet. It's on our backlog. We hope to support it eventually."
    http://useragentstring.com/pages/Chrome/ full list of user agent strings. Chrome basically pretends to be webkit and from the server side you can treat it the same way. It's also the fastest growing browser so I think you should not look for reasons to do it 'eventually', but ask yourself what prevents you from doing it now. Given that Story is an experimental product, you can guess that a lot of Story users run other new or experimental software, such as Chrome.
    Getting a new visitor to stay on your page for more than 30 seconds is job #1 for web-centric apps, not job #100...do you think rejecting 7% of first-time page visitors is a good idea?

  • Did a new install of Windows 7 and Adobe, but CS won't activate.

    Have Adobe Creative Sweet Premium from a couple years ago. Did a new install of Windows 7 and Adobe, but CS won't activate. Probably did not de-activate the old product. I paid for it though and have the install disks and serial numbers.
    The adobe.com/go/activate website is less useful. Been on live chat for 20 min. It says an agent is available but no one responds. Help?

    Mylenium,
    That was a good start. Need one more helpful hint. I just found the Adobe DVDs. It is actually Creative Suite 5 Design Standard. It would be nice to put on a box without a DVD player.  Can you please provide me with a download link for CS5 DS?
    I think if I can download it I can handle validating it from there. Thank you!

  • Adobe Story Desktop Application Won't Install

    Hi,
    I just recently subscribed to the Adobe Creative Cloud CS6. I'm really interested in owning the Adobe Story desktop application and have attempted to download it by clicking the Install Desktop Application button. Unfortunately, all attempts have failed.
    Upon clicking the Install button, I receive a pop-up explaining that I have to install Adobe Air for Story to work. If I click Yes, the window will then say the installation has failed and will ask to Retry. If I do this, the error repeats. How can I get this error to stop appearing?
    Please note I have the latest version of Adobe Air already installed on my computer.

    Hi CBWriter,
    Adobe Story went paid in May this year and we have now two flavours of Story - Adobe Story Free and Adobe Story Plus. The Desktop application is available to Adobe Story Plus users who value the offline capability of the product. Adobe Story Free users can continue to use the web version of Adobe Story.
      We have upgraded your account to Adobe Story Plus for one day. Please login to Story and download/install the AIR application so that you can access your offline data and take them online.
    Thanks

  • Adobe story browser app won't work, desktop app in update limbo

    When I attempt to use the adobe story browser app on Safari on any OSX Lion computer, Safari immediately crashes. When I try and use the desktop app, it downloads the update, then adobe AIR installer crashes because "This application cannot be installed because this installer has been mis-configured. Please contact the application author for assistance."

    Please try after clearing the browser 'cache' and 'cookies' on Safari. For desktop app you can refer to http://forums.adobe.com/message/5132010#5132010

  • Adobe Story just updated and the Sign-in Screen won't go away, what to do?

    Adobe Story updated when I opened a project. I allowed it to update and unfortunately I get the sign-in screen on 3/4 of the screen and my project on the rest. Ok, I sign-in again and restarted the laptop and still have the sign-in screen.
    Any suggestions to clear this up appreciated.

    Hi,

    You should be able to log in here with your Creative Cloud password: Adobe Story | Scriptwriting software
    After doing so, you can download Adobe Story Plus. Have you tried that?
    Thanks,

  • Why can't I sign in to Adobe Story?

    I've been using Adobe Story for a while now and I just tried logging into it on a different device. It asked for my password which it normally does if I have to use a different computer, and I set it to remember password as I use this computer a lot. But now when I press 'Sign In' the screen just refreshes on the same 'Sign In' pager and won't let me open it. Why is it doing this?

    Go through the discussion @ http://forums.adobe.com/message/4435133#443513 Towards the end we have suggested some measures to get it working. please try them out.
    The availability of Story Plus is dependent on the Subscription Plan a user has for Creative Cloud. For some plans(like Education), Story plus in not available currently. Story free is available to all users.
    For further information, please check the subscription plan details. You can also drop us a mail at : [email protected] with your Adobe ID and we can check the information for you.
    Let us know if the following steps helps in resolving the issue with the desktop app:
    ( Please do not try these steps if you are a free user )
    - Quit Story if it is running.
    - Open Run dialog ( press Windows key + R ), type " %appdata% " ( without quotes ) and press enter.
      - Go to Adobe/AIR/ELS and rename folder 'com.adobe.AdobeStory.[some.random.number]'
      - Launch Story and try to login.
    To understand the Premiere issue better, can you please mail me( roverma(at)adobe(dot)com ) a screen shot of it ( Story option being grayed out )?
    Regards
