Application manager corrupts install

Trying to install LR6 standalone on window 8.1. Get past product key entry then install bar starts to progress (can see its installing C++, etc) but then the install stops due to the Application Manager failing. ???

  • Prevent Adobe application manager  auto install downloaded software

    I used Adobe application manager to download a trial version of photoshop cs6, but I need to install it at another time. Adobe application manager instead installs photoshop immediately.
    How Can I prevent Adobe application manager to install downloaded software automatically?

    You can only download a trial once, so you need to download it when you can use it.

  • The adobe application manager cannot install updates since it says that another installer is running

    The adobe application manager cannot install updates since it says that another installer is running?? Another installer is not running, any way to fix this?

    We can't know. You are not providing any system information or other details. Restart your system, make sure to sign in as admin, then try again.

  • Adobe Premeire Pro Installation Failed - Application Manager Corrupted.  Please help!

    Hello all,
    I just recently purchased a subscription license for Adobe Premeire Pro CS6, and tried to download it following the instructions in the confirmation e-mail.   After installing the application manager and downloading, extracting, and installing the program, I received the error message seen in the image below, "Installation Failed - Adobe Application Manager is corrupted and must be reinstalled".  
    So of course I googled it, and found that this was a pretty common problem, and found one site that recommended re-installing the AAM with the following link:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/download-error-403-launching-aam.html
    So I did that too.  In addition to restarting my computer, and also tried to download the program directly bypassing the AAM following the instructions on this page:
    http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs6-direct-download-links.html
    All of which was unsuccesful.   I've got a video for my Mom's 60th birthday that I HAVE to complete this weekend, and Adobe's support is closed on the weekends.  I didn't think installing something from a company like Adobe would be this difficult.  Makes me wish I had a Mac.    Can anyone PLEASE help me get Premeire (and Encore) downloaded and installed? 
    Any help would be hugely appreciated.   Thanks,
    Erik

    Hi Jeff,
    I am experiencing the same exact problem and am unable to resolve it.  I've called Tier 1 support (Indian Call Center), and went through all the steps that I have already done myself (as outlined above) with no luck.  I'm still getting the corruption error. 
    I am using Parallels Workstation Extreme and it is being installed on a Virtual Machine.  The "Extreme" part of Parallels Workstation allows me to assign a discrete graphics card to the VM.  This is uing Intel's vt-d technology for Directed IO.  You mentioned above that you had fired up an instance of Windows 7 64-bit and it worked just fine.  But for some reason, I am unable to duplicate the same success.  The case is now being escalated to "higher" support.  Here is my setup:
    - Parallels Workstation Extreme VM - Windows 7 64-bit
    - Subscription to Creative Cloud
    - Clean Install does not work
    - Not a part of any domain, just workgroup
    - Home PC, so it connects directly to a router and then to Cox (ISP)
    - Has direct assignment of a Network card, meaning the network card is not a bridged connection (the VM gets it's own NIC)
    - User account is already Administrator, but tried to "Run as administratot" with no luck.
    - After install on the clean Windows didn't work, tried using the Adobe Cleanup Tool - doesn't work either
    - Disabled all start up programs from msconfig - doesn't work
    - Verified that the (.exe) does work, but coping the same (.exe) to another computer and it works.
    I would really appreciate any advice that you may have!
    Thanks Jeff!

  • Application Manager Corrupted - Reinstall -- HOW??

    I'm trying to download a demo of Photoshop CC (Fortunately, I haven't paid yet!!).  The first tries gave me a quick flash of a message that a previous version of Application Manager was already installed.  It then continued to download and begin installing Application Manager.  In the end, it failed to load.  Now when I try to download and install Photoshop CC, I immediately get a message that Application Manager is corrupt and needs to be reinstalled.
    Where do I find the file to reinstall Application Manager and what steps do I need to take to install it.  I do NOT want to lose my PS CS6 Extended in case I chose not to go with CC.

    Hi mk011053,
    Please remove Adobe Application Manager and reinstall from : http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4773  and check

  • Adobe Application Manager Failed Install - Mountain Lion

    I upgraded to Mountain Lion and it caused some problems with using my Adobe Creative Suite. I deleted the Adobe Application Manager (after following some suggestions in forums) and I cannot seem to install it back.  It continues to show that the installation failed with the following message:
    We've encountered the following issues
    Installer failed to initialize.  Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem.
    I've downloaded Adobe Support Advisor but it doesn't tell me what the problem is.
    Is the failed installation due to incompatibility with Mountain Lion?  If yes, does anyone have a work around? 

    Do you receive any specific error messages when you try to open the Adobe Application Manager?  Have you tried reinstalling the Adobe Application Manager from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4774.

  • Adobe application manager wont install

    hi
    Ive deleted adobe application manager and now it wont reinstall
    help please

    How did you delete?
    If you did not properly UN-install, you will need to run the cleaner before you RE-install
    -http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html (and uninstall)
    -using the cleaner after uninstalling and before reinstalling will usually help

  • Application Manager shows 'Install' next to apps already installed

    I have been using CS6 apps as part of a Creative Cloud subscription since not long after CC was released. I have only installed the apps as part of CC.
    However my AAM window shows a blue Install link next to apps (eg ID, PS, AI, Acrobat) which I use every day. (You can see ID CS6 in the background of the screengrab below.)
    The only two apps which show up as installed are AE (which I downloaded a month or two ago) & LR5 (which I downloaded yesterday) and even that shows a grey 'Installation complete Launch app' message when I've already been using it.
    Does this suggest that AAM isnt properly monitoring the update status of my apps?
    How can I fix this?

    Pete.Green:
    I don't see the need to do this really. IF you want to you can, but they're the same application. I'd stick with what you already have installed.
    Cool.
    So assuming Pete and Jeff are on the same page is the basic advice to:
    use the CC desktop app to monitor the update status of the remainder of my Adobe apps, and
    simply keep an ear to the ground for any updates to LR and update LR from within the app itself (Help / Check for updates…)?
    Jeff A Wright:
    You can safely ignore the Adobe Application Manager at this point and use the Creative Cloud interface.  Also the normal Adobe icon will still be displayed for the time being when updates are available.  These will eventually be handled within the Creative Cloud application interface but I have seen the same Adobe icon on several of my upgraded computers already.
    Jeff, was 'can safely ignore' intended to mean that I can choose to ignore AAM, or that I should ignore AAM? If an update is shown to be available via the AAM icon in OSX's menubar is a user meant to use AAM or CC desktop to update the apps? And if the update status of the 'production' apps is at odds in the 'management' apps (as it currently is on my computer) which should I trust?
    Is AAM now simply an app which is intended to work in the background (and hence should I uncheck 'Notify me of new updates on the menu bar' setting in Preferences)? Is that is something that will happen down the road, but isn't ready yet?
    Sorry for all the questions -- which I appreciate are veering a little into the academic rather than being strictly necessary (I can at least use my production apps at the moment) -- but I'm just surprised how confusing this all is. And I don't imagine I'm the only person who is confused.
    The Creative Clud Desktop help page makes no mention of AAM, and the Install and Update Apps help page only seems to add to, rather than clear up, the confusion about how the two managment apps are meant to work together.

  • Application manager says installed but its not

    Application manager says DW  installed but its not, and I cant clear it or install

    I put a clean OS (Win7) on this week and installed CC on a fresh system. I also have a macbook pro and have problems with that also.Is it my account.
    I have 2 macbook pros one running CS6 the other on CC and a PC workstation on CC.
    Could this be causing the problem

  • Application Manager Corrupt

    I am trying to download InDesign.  I have tried several times and finally receive a message that the Application Manager is corrupt and to contact Customer Service.  When I try to contact Customer Service I get thrown here.  I feel like I'm in a Adobe jail maze.  Any suggestions?

    Quit the maze, just kidding. Maybe try to download the actual creative cloud again then redownload all the programs... What OS are you running? If Win 8 im not surprised your running into problems Iam as well in some program issues except with photoshop.

  • How do I get application manager to install products after a system restore removed them?

    I had some issues starting the computer and had to use system restore to get it runnng.
    But that meant that all the applications I installed using creative cloud were gone. 
    When I started the Application Manger, It read that all the applications that I had installed were still installed.
    I don't know how to reset anything to reinstall what I lost.   As you can see I says the installed programs are up to date. But they are not on the hard drive.   
    If anyone can help,   thank you very much.  Or I wait till they open tomorrow.      Barry

    Hi Mylenium
    i did a Forum search upon AAM issues and came here.
    My system and all installed CS6 Applications are running smoothly, just AAM shows some odd behaviour
    Most needed applications are installed, but under the "All" Tab, AAM shows "install" on the right, see my screenshot below.
    Contrary to that what is seen on the screenshot up there from user "Bar".
    under "Updates" it shows all up to date (see screenshot below)
    This way, I'm cannot be sure if AAM works correctly or not.
    So i have followed your suggested advice and cleaned everythig up, downloaded and installed everything again, ugh!, but problem still persitis.
    Usually it should show up which Applications are alredy installed, respectively are up to date and which application are still not installed.
    Is there a known issue with AAM?
    Thank you.

  • Application Manager wont Install

    My Application Manager wont download. I get the gray bar, but nothing happens. I have to control option delete just to turn it off. I have been through support and that have elevated me. They said I would receive a call 36 hours.

    I have a Mac OS X VERSION 10.7.5

    Bagwelldavid have you checked the configuration of your software firewall?  From the behavior you are describing it would appear that the Adobe Application Manager is being blocked from accessing the Internet.  You may also want to try the steps listed in Sign in or activation errors | CS6, CS5.5 Subscriptions, CS6 Perpetual - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-issues.html.
