Applications don't show on CC drop down menu

Question

After using CC for a while, suddenly available applications don't show on the drop-down menu on an iMac; I can run the apps but they perform inconsistently, sometimes crashing, sometimes the cursor behaves erratcly or don't allow to create pdf files. I've tried reinstalling CC, reassigning the CC seat, but nothing seems to work. Any suggestions?
