Application Manager - update blocked by Genuine Software validation failure

Anybody explain why that is?

Could you provide some details on how are you trying to the software. Did you download it from the Creative Cloud website via the Adobe Application Manager?
This error was reported in in past, due to a certificate revocation. That was a long time ago though, and so am not sure if thats the reason in your case. Just to be sure though, coudl you run through the instructions in the following document so that we can remove this as a probable cause. See http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/digital-certificate-revoked-aam.html
In general, this error indicates that the file may not be the exact file that was sent from the Adobe servers. The check is done to ensure that any malware has not been injected into the file by unscrouplous entities. This error could also possibly be due to a corrupt download. It may happen due a spotty or slow internet connections. If you're downloading again, use a wired connection rather than a wireless connection.

  • "Adobe Genuine Software Validation Failure" error?

    I just purchased InDesign and am trying to download it, but get this crazy error msg...
    "Adobe genuine software validation failure. The product you are trying to install is not an Adobe Genuine software and it appears to be counterfeit."
    And it doesn't give me any more options.
    Can you please let me know what to do? How can a product from its own site be "counterfeit"?

  • Error when trying to re-install Adobe CC: Adobe Genuine Software Validation Failure

    My subscription expired while away on holidays. I renewed my subscription and have tried to re-install without success. The first issue I had was with administrator permissions on my pc. I have fixed this but now get an error stating that the product I am trying to install is counterfeit. I have searched through Adobe's troubleshooting but I can't see anything that matches this error. My OS is Windows 7. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi avanishdivya
    I have followed these steps previously, without success. Step 1 is where I started having problems, where the download stops towards the end stating the product is conterfeit. Regarding step 2: The only other CC product I have is LR. I have followed step 2 and installed updates, then re-attempted step 1 and still receieved the same pop up. I have tried step 3 several times now (including after updating LR), each time it finishes with a pop up to install Winzip (for a fee). I don't understand why I would need Winzip to re-intall a product I was able to install without Winzip originally.
    Any other suggestions?
    Thanks

  • Genuine Software Verification Failure for Captivate 8

    Hello,
    I am curious about an error that keeps on occurring with the trial download of Captivate 8.
    I am working on a Company Machine, a Dell Precision Tower 7910, and I need to download a trial of Adobe Captivate 8. Upon the install it reaches 99% and then a dialogue box appears stating " Installation Flailed Adobe Genuine Software Verification Failure".
    I used the Google Chrome browser and installed the Captivate 64 bit for windows version from https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=captivate
    I have a Creative cloud account that I signed into and used an administators username and password to approve the install onto the PC.
    What is the cause of this error and how can I resolve it?
    Best regards,

  • Failed installation: How to rerun Adobe Application Manager updates for Photoshop CS6

    Hi.
    The installation of  Adobe Extension Manager CS6 failed - while 2 others update for Photoshop CS6 did intall. I was installing Adobe Reader X .
    That's why I discovered the notication from the application manager about updates for CS6 - and I just confirmed that as well.
    Apparently the Reader installation blocked only the update installation of Adobe Extension Manager CS6 - saying another installation process was running ... such stuff happens sometimes.
    However, it seems Adobes Application Manager update module does not track its failed installations? It does not automatically advertise that update has not been installed and notifiying me again to install it. At least not immediately ...
    So how do I rerun the Adobe Application Manager update moduel to check for updates manually?

    You go Photoshop CS6 > Help > Updates ...

  • Application Manager updated to Creative Cloud?

    Why did Adobe Application Manager update to a launch button for Creative Cloud? I don't have Creative Cloud. I typically run updates as I see the alerts come in, and just ran this update to find app. manager was replaced with a launch button to CC. I have no idea why this is on my desktop now. Should I be deleting this application? I have CS6 installed and thought I would need application manager for any updates to my software. If anyone can advise me, that would be great. This whole thing seems very weird to me.
    Thanks,
    Kim

    It seems that sometime in the past few weeks (months?) Adobe has updated the Application Manager so that when you launch it directly, or via a shortcut, it automatically tries to launch Creative Cloud instead of launching itself.
    In Windows, the Application Manager application itself is located here:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE\PDApp\core\PDapp.exe
    Double-clicking this file used to run itself, the Application Manager.  Now, double clicking this file makes it try to run the Creative Cloud app instead.  If you don't have Creative Cloud installed, you get an error that Creative Cloud is missing and needs to be installed.
    The same is true for clicking on the shortcut, Start Menu>All Programs>Adobe Application Manager.  This is a shortcut to the above file.  It used to run the Application Manager.  Now it tries to run Creative Cloud.
    The only way I have found to run the Application Manager itself now, is to open one of the Adobe applications, such as Photoshop, and then go to the Help menu and choose "Updates..."    This will run the actual Adobe Application Manager.  
    If you open the Windows Task Manager while the Adobe Application Manager is running, select the Adobe Application Manager under the Applications tab, right click and select Go To Process, then right click on the process and choose Open FIle Location, you can see that the file that is running is still:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE\PDApp\core\PDapp.exe
    This means that:
    1.  when you run the file directly, it tries to run Creative Cloud
    2.  when an Adobe application such as Photoshop runs the file, it runs itself (the Application Manager)
    There must be a command switch (or flag) being set by the Adobe applications when they run this file, telling it to run itself rather than launch Creative Cloud.   I wish I knew what that switch was. If I did, I'd make a custom shortcut with the switch in it and replace my existing shortcut for Adobe Application Manager with the custom one.
    In the mean time, I have avoided installing Creative Cloud (since I don't need it) and I am avoiding using the shortcuts (since they make it try to run Cloud).  When I want to check for updates, I launch Photoshop and launch the Application Manager from in there instead, for now.
    I hope either Adobe fixes this or someone posts the command switch info so I can make a shortcut.

  • Adobe genuine software varification failure

    Hello.
    I'm try to install Adobe Design & Web Premium CS6 of KMUTNB license in the university network (i'm staff of KMTNB email:<e-mail removed by Moderator>).
    When the installer installed about 10% it show message "adobe genuine software varification failure. The product you are trying to install is not an adobe genuine software and appears to be counterfeit." and stop install.
    Please resolve my problem.

    Manish-Sharma,
    The Verification does not recognize the proper email address, used to sign-on the membership.The verification is trying to use an old account, which no longer exists, instead of the one established, for the membership, which is valid. I need Adobe CS6, it can't wait for trouble-shooting issues to keep arising. I made the mistake of recycling the original disks, thinking it was already replaced with a new version and corrupted, due to a hard disk crash. I need this software NOW and it's too costly, to purchase the boxed version, without a educational discount. I may use that discount in the future, but this project can't wait.
    Regards,
    Donna
