App manager won't install

Running Mac OS 10.6.8 - downloaded the Adobe Applications Manager to get a Cloud  App download, and the dmg install package opens- but clicking to run the install part of the process, on the unbundled file, isn't successful. The program runs, asks for a password to update the Mac system, then returns a message that it encounters some issues, and didn't install the App Manager.  Did this three times, with the same result.  Solutions??

    What exactly means "refuses"?
    This is the message which comes up if I try to update (from the Help menu) or re-install my licenced copies of CS6 or Photoshop Elements 9.
    “We've encountered the following issues
    Installer failed to initialize.Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem”
    Get Adobe Support Advisor”
    OR
    on trying to open PhotoshopCS6 I get this message:-
    “Adobe Application Manager required to start your trial, is missing or damaged.
    Please download a new copy of Adobe Application Manager from http://www.adobe.com/go/applicationmanager_uk”
    When I follow these instructions and try and start up/install or update Photoshop CS6 I get the same messages all over again. This has been going on since Tuesday afternoon and I am anxiuous to resolve the problem. For several years now all this has worked perfectly through your website and I cannot understand what has changed.  Once I cancel these messages the products themselves seem to function OK. When I attempt to use Adobe Update Manager I get the same messages as above. You will see that my products are properly licensed and up to date. Have you any solution?

  • I need to reinstall an app, but the app manager won't let me...

    Hi,
    I just had to do a system recovery and as a consequence, I lost an app that downloaded. When I open the app manager it says the app is 'installed' so won't let me reinstall it. How do I change this?
    Cheers

  • Where is the fix already? Logic Pro from the APP store won't install!

    Who do you contact concerning an app store purchase that seems to be causing problems throughout the community with zero response from Apple as to the solution? I just bought Logic Pro (long time Logic Express user). It won't Install PERIOD - It is stuck in an endless loop of downloading the additional content required for it to run.
    1) This 2.0G download completes -
    2) I am prompted for my administrative password and Logic then closes.
    3) When opening the app again - it wants to download again.
    I have been through this twice. Reset permissions and rebooted before the second time. I have reinstalled Logic as well. APPLE!  - Please tell me how to fix it or refund my money asap. And me having to do a bunch of jacking around with my system is NOT the answer.

    Update:
    This link
    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2972851/logic-downloads-fixed.html
    has all the individual download packages, and on the second try, I was able to install the big "additional pro content" package from here. No guarantees, but at least you only need to download each one once, so if it fails you don't have to wait again.
    Good Luck!

  • App manager won't add any apps.

    I try to add either a packaged or hosted app into app manager on firefox 30. I've verified that the hosted app works on my handset (obviously I have no way of testing that the packaged app works without installing it via app manager, which isn't working). The app then does not show up in the list of apps in app manager (which is empty), nor does firefox display any error messages either as alerts or logs in the console. I went on a hunt for logs around my filesystem, but I couldn't find anything. I am on OSX 10.9.

    With the last Firefox upgrade, some plugins are no longer
    enabled until you enable it.
    Open the Add-ons Manager.
    Press the '''<Alt>''' or '''<F10>''' key to bring up the tool bar.
    Followed by;
    Windows; '''Tools'''
    Linux; '''Edit'''
    Mac; ''application name''
    Then '''Add-ons. '''
    Hot key; '''<Control> ''(Mac: <Command>)'' <Shift> A)'''
    On the left side of the page, select Plugins.
    BTW; At the top right is a link to check your plugins.

    How to do i get the app manager to launch correctly, or is there another way i can download the software.

    Install the latest version of Adobe Application Manager 6.2 from the below link and try downloading the applications.

  • I just purchased CC.  The adobe app manager will not install.  any suggestions?

    It says, other INSTANCES of adobe app manager are currently running...   ?

    Hi Chris,
    It seems there are mulitple installation instances of Apllication Manager running.
    Hereby, either you can quit those extra instances from Activity Monitor on Mac or Task Manager on Windows.
    Or you can restart the machine and try to download Creative Cloud from below link.

    Hope this helps.
    Please let me know if you face any problem.

  • Application Manager won't install Illustrator

    I've been trying to install Illustrator CS6 for literally weeks. Every time I try, the install either freezes at a completely random percentage, or give me an error like this:
    I was having the same problem with Photoshop for a couple of days, but then it just worked. I have installed other programs like Lightroom and Edge without issue.
    Is there some other way I can install Illustrator? It's extremely frustrating to have to pull out my laptop every time I need Illustrator because it won't install on my workstation.

    I have the same problem, The logfile reported:

  • Application manager won't install and freezes almost immediately.

    I am on a Mac OSX Lion. I just bought creative cloud and the Application Manager won't start. I am connected to the internet. Every time I start it up it initializes and then begins download but nothing happens. I have tried redownloading several times but end up having to Force Quit.
    Would love some help! What do I do?
    Thanks

    No error messages are appearing. It literally just looks like the below image for hours. When I click quit it doesn't shut down. When I into Force Quit it does not say "not responding", but forcing it to quit is the only way to get rid of it. And my internet connection is stable as far as I can see.

  • Desktop Manager won't install on Mac

    Would think I'm just missing something obvious but I give up. 
    I have administrative privileges.
    Download the dmg package from BB's website without problem and opens fine. (yes, it's the Mac version, not the PC version)
    Click on "Install BlackBerry Desktop software.app" and get the usual warning pop-up that it is "…an application downloaded form the Internet. Are you sure you want to open it?" 
    I click on "Open" and NOTHING happens (other than this pop-up window goes away).
    I've closed all other programs when installing and made sure there isn't another pop-up window (hidden behind the active windows) waiting for my to respond.
    I've checked the Applications folder for ANY new listings (even if it's not called something obvious like BlackBerrry Desktop Manager) and don't find anything installed/changed.
    The Mac is using the Terminal program to open this Unix-exec file.
    If I click on the "Uninstall BlackBerry Desktop software.app", it responds by saying it cannot find the program installed. (That tells me both that the installation package isn't entirely corrupt but that the program never actually installed)
    Using Mac OS 10.6.7.
    There is no antivirus/antimalware program running during installation.
    Anybody have any idea what I'm missing for what should be a simple process?

    After I have restart the next, the DM installer start to work. Maybe give it a try on restart computer?

  • Adobe Application Manager won't install anything!

    I've been trying to update Photoshop CS5 to 12.0.4, and the Adobe Application Manager (AAM) keeps asking me for my system admin password.  Everytime I enter it, the window pops up again.  I could enter my password a dozen times, it won't begin any updates or installations.
    I have tried:
    shutdown and restart
    changing my admin password
    installing non-Adobe software (to see if it was an OS X problem)
    uninstalling all my Adobe software (same problem as trying to install)
    I'd really like to be able to update my software.  Anybody know what to do?

    Thanks Jeff!  That worked like a charm.  I've never enabled a root user, but now that I know that exists, I'll keep that in mind if I have any other installation issues (Adobe or otherwise).
    A question remains - why is AAM being stubborn with my admin password?  If anyone knows, that'd be great, otherwise, I consider this answered.
