Application Manager requires sign in during computer start

Each time I turn on my computer, Application Manager loads up and requests a sign in. I thought my creditials are saved locally so that I wouldn't need to sign in--this is done automatically. What if I was not connected to the Internet, yet still needed to use the Creative Suite products? How would that work if I couldn't sign in?

Does this solution also work for Win7? Also I can't find the "caps" folder where the media.db file is supposed to be. Obviously there is a different file path for Win7.

Hi Adaptive Pixels,
The "opm.db" file has somehow become corrupted and you system and is not able to save it properly. Can you try deleting that file and ensure you have read and write permissions on the folder containing it?
Please delete the "opm.db" file found in:
on Mac: <yourusername>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE
If you're not familiar with how to navigate to hidden files/folders on your computer:
on Mac: Use the "Go to folder" item in the "Go" menu in the Finder and enter "~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE" (without the quotes). Delete the opm.db file.

  • Photoshop CC opens Application Manager, says "Sign in Required", not working. Help?

    Photoshop CC today opens Adobe Application Manager, says "Sign in Required", but with correct info gives error message. Also, CC desktop not working. I haven't had any problem in the previous two months. I also was just build two weeks ago, and had to update my billing information. I tried online chat, after 30 minutes of typing, I've been disconnected twice. The funny thing is, Photoshop CC does open, and it works fine. However this message is irritating concerning. I'm on a Mac running the latest operating system and hardware.

    Please Update CC App from following link:
    http://www.adobe.com/appsmanager/index.html and then try signing in.
    Do let us know if it works for you.

    When I attempt to download Lightroom 4 the Application Manager come up and then says it needs to update. It begins the update, but 3/4 of the way through, it stops and I get a message that "Administrator priviledges are required to continue the installation." I am the administrator and sole user of the computer, and log in as such.

  • Adobe Application Manager - Download Error on Mac 10.7.5

    Hello,
    please help.
    I have this problem for more than a week now. I have contacted Adobe support almost every day, but all the solutions they suggested did not work. I have uninstalled the AAM and Creative Cloud App several times, installed again, deleted the AAMUpdater folder, the opm.db file, installed only the AAM, but I still can't access the Creative Cloud. The Programms installed before on the same computer are CS6 from the Creative Cloud in international english. The error appeared after upgrading the Creative Cloud App. The version installed now is: 1.0.0.183, and the AAM is 7.0. I have used Safari, Firefox and Chrome without success. There are no firewall or network problems because the second machine I have, an older one, running 10.6.8. connects with Creative Cloud without any problems through the same router. The computer I work with is a MacBook Pro with 10.7.5. in german. Could it be a language problem? I have used the english software on a german OS for years now... the last one beeing CS6 from the Creative Cloud.
    Today, the installed software (CS6) started bringing this error while starting "Adobe Application Manager, required to verify your license, is missing or damaged."
    So please help, any kind of solution is welcome... my time is running out. I am using those Apps for work. The customers are waiting... Thank you.
    Petru Stendl
    P.S. Please see the screenshots (they are in german, but I understand that the problem is international).

    this is from the console log this morning. I hope it helps.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS6 won't run, problem with Application Manager

    I've now got three Adobo Photoshop CS products on my MacBook Pro, the latest is CS6 which won't run.
    I own Photoshop CS3, I just happen to install the CS5.x suite today, which runs during the trial period (30 day, today is day #1).
    I then see that PSCS6 is out so I install that and get an error dialog.
    Adobe Photoshop CS6
    Adobe Application Manager, required to verify your license, is missing or damaged.
    Please download a new copy of Adobe Application Manager from http://www.adobe.com/go/applicationmanager.
    I go to that URL, run the new application manager and get that same dialog box when I try to run CS6.
    When I did the CS6b install it asked for my Adobe ID/password and I entered that and the install completed. So I'm not sure what's going on.

    Hi, Using OSX Lion...was getting the same AAM errors.
    I hope my "fix" is of help:
    During one installation attempt I noticed that it was using an Adobe Application Manager here:
    ~User/Applications/Adobe/OOBE/PDApp/core/Adobe Application Manager
    It is version 6.0.236.0 and the installer deletes it after the install. The download page only has version 2.
    So during my last install attempt, I grabbed a copy of that OOBE directory -- to catch the support files -- before deletion.
    Did not work in user Applications folder, but when I copied it in the location of AAM 2, it works.
    The full location is as follows (I renamed the original OOBE folder as a back-up):
    HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE/PDApp/core/Adobe Application Manager
    Authorization works, and software update seems to...however, uninstall can't use this method.

    Rvargas,
    You can follow the suggestions from the Adobe knowledgebase document as below:
    Source:http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-creative-cloud-installation-download .html
    Remove or uninstall Adobe Application Manager
    When you download and install a Creative Cloud product, a program called Adobe Application Manager is installed on your computer.  Adobe Application Manager performs multiple functions within all of the Creative Suite products.  To completely remove Adobe Application Manager, uninstall all of the Creative Suite products.  Upon removal of the last product, the Adobe Application Manager is uninstalled.
    Important:  Adobe offers a Cleaner Tool, which removes the database entries but not the physical files associated with the installation.  Run the program uninstallers to remove all components.
    Remove Creative Cloud on Mac OS
    Double-click your hard drive.
    Go to Applications > Utilities > Adobe Installers.
    Run all of the Adobe uninstallers to remove all of the Adobe Creative Suite products.
    Remove Creative Cloud on Windows
    Click Start > Control Panel.
    Click Programs and Features.
    Select a Creative Suite application and click Uninstall.
    Repeat step 3 for all Creative Suite applications.
    Hope that helps.

  • Trouble updating Application Manager so I can update to Acrobat XI

    I've tried a number of times to download Acrobat XI. Before it will download, Application Manager opens, but an updater then starts running. About 75% of the way through I get this error message:
    "Adobe Genuine Software Validation Failure. The product you are trying to install is not an Adobe Genuine Software and appears to be counterfeit."
    That's nuts! I'm doing it right from the Adobe site. I've tried rebooting and starting over, but I get the same message. How do I get past this to update the Application Manaager so I can update my software?

    Hi Sharon,
    My Adobe Tech support guy helped me find the Adobe Application Manager download file on my computer. We simply ran it again from the download and it worked fine this time. Something wrong with the previous installation of AAM on my PC-based system (windows 7). I'm installing Acrobat XI Pro now.
