Blue spinning wheel, apps will not appear
Hi,
I'm hoping someone can help...
I have been using Creative Suite CS5 for some time and recently decided to try the free trial of Creative Cloud. However, all I get in the apps section of the application manager is the blue spinning wheel. (screen grab below)
I've uninstalled all the CC software and re-installed again, still no difference. I don't have any firewalls or virus software, I'm not blocking pop-ups, I've tried Chrome as well as Safari, I'm not on a network, we have a really good broadband connection and I'm using a brand new MacBook Pro... so I am at a loss as to why I still can't get the software to show up in the menu, much less download it. I have used the Creative Cloud software successfully before at work, so I know how it is supposed to function.
I have seen this problem on other threads, and have followed the advice given in the answers, but it still hasn't worked.
Can anyone shed any light on this?
Thanks in advance.
Louise
HI Jenn,
I would suggest to try repairing your disk permissions which will help.

Are you trying to just download the Lightroom trial software? If you just need the trial you can download the Lightroom 5.5 installer here. http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5791
Let us know how we can help
Thanks

HT4910 my apps will not appear on my iphone
So I had to do a restore because the software was causing problems with my sound. I tried to back my phone up with ICloud and everything aside from my apps reappeared. I can see that they are in the cloud, but they will not back up to the phone. Thoughts? Please help!
Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can re-download content purchased from the app store using the purchased option which is revealed by tapping the updates option at the bottom of the screen of the App store app on your iOS device. -
I am trying to add an app to my Ipod touch. It is showing in itunes. I click and drag it to the ipod image, hit apply, and then sync. It says it has synced, but the new apps will not appear on the ipod.
What am I missing?- Is the app compatible with your iPod?
- Do you have any Restrictions set that that prevent installing that app? Settings>General>Restrictions
- Do you have the right boxes checked to drag and drop the app?
iTunes 11 for Windows: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
- Have you successfully added apps to the iPod from this iTunes library before?
- What happens when you try to directly download the app on the iPod by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store -
When in Firefox, for no apparent reason the screen freezes and a blue spinning wheel appears. I have to wait while it says that Firefox is not responding. Then the blue wheel disappears and the screen is back. This has also happen, even when not attempting to do anything such as scroll down or click on anything.

Installation: Blue spinning wheel but no apps showing
Installation: I have just accepted an invitation to join the creative cloud, but when I got to download apps (ie, InDesign) a blue 'spinning wheel' appears and much like the spinning wheel of death... has continued to spin for several minutes. I have shut down my computer, closed all applications, but nothing seems to be working. Does anyone have any other ideas as to why this is happening/what to do?

Creative Cloud Desktop App stuck on blue spinning wheel after update.
After searching the forums, I found a post suggesting a fix.
I performed the following steps:
1- uninstalled CC desktop app
2- deleted all the preference files in the OOBE folder for my user profile
3- rebooted
4- downloaded CC desktop app again and reinstalled
I get stuck on a blue spinning wheel after the login prompt. All I can see is the behance tab and the apps tab. No home screen, no files tab, no fonts tab... I can go into preferences but cannot make any changes, as it goes back to waiting. My internet access works fine, meanwhile.
Can someone provide suggestions? I'm spending a LOT of time trying to resolve this.
Thank youThis worked for me:
Open Finder, click on Go > Go to Folder. Type in ~/library and hit enter.
Open Application Support/Adobe folder and rename OOBE folder to OOBEold.
Click on Apple icon on the top left, select System Preferences
Choose the network that is currently connected to internet that can be Ethernet or
Airport(Wireless). Click on Advanced button and click Proxies Tab.
Under 'Select a Proxy server to Configure' Uncheck all the proxy check boxes, then uncheck 'Use Passive FTP Mode (PASV)'.
Hope this helps someone else. -
Puchased items in my watchtime app will not restore to my ipad (1) after an ipad restore. The items appear ready for purchase. how can i restore the items.
Following ultimately helped me : Make sure that you are logged in at the App Store App or iTunes App with your apple ID and password with a US account. Turn your iPad off and on and than you should see the Radio button again. It won't work if you are logged on with a foreign account. If you are not logged in at all, it worked, too.

Print screen will not appear app crashes
print screen will not appear on any app and the given application that I am trying to print from crashes. but I can see thye printer in the setup utility tried resetinmg the utility that did not help any suggestions.
Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
Try booting from your install disk and run Disk Utility.
Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger and later) and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
*(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)*
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
Select your start up disk and click Restart
While you have the Disk Utility window open, look at the bottom of the window where you see Capacity and Available. Make sure there is always 10% free disk space. Not enough disk space can cause directory corruption.

Game Center app will not open. I only get a spinning icon on settings. Trying to open but stuck. On app itself , it's just blank.
Hi Free lee,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. I would first try closing any pertinent apps like Settings and Game Center:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
If the issue continues, a restart and possibly a reset may also be warranted:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

App will not download to iPad when purchased from App Store - stuck with Cloud icon
Device : iPad Air 32gb wi-fi model (not cellular data)
OS version : 7.1.1 (up to date)
Location : UK
Problem : App will not download to iPad when purchased from App Store - stuck with Cloud icon
Last night I tried to download an app over wi-fi onto my iPad Air, but the app did not install.
I have plenty of space (the app is 24.1mb, I have 3.4gb free space) and there are no restrictions whatsoever on my iPad - no blocks on App store purchases, no age-related restrictions, no country restrictions etc.
Normally from the App Store page you would tap the price (in this case the app was free), enter your iTunes password, and the app would download.
Also a new icon appears on the home screen and a circle shows the progress of the download.
However this did not happen.
Instead I have the Cloud icon (the one that shows when you have bought an app but it is not currently installed on your device) and a message that says "You've already purchased this, so it will be downloaded now at no additional cost".
If I press OK I am then prompted to enter my iTunes password, the Cloud symbol briefly changes to a circle (and I mean for a split-second, like the blink of an eye) and then the Cloud symbol appears again.
The app does not download - in fact it does not even *attempt* to download.
I have tried this >20 times now and it always occurs excatly like this.
After Googling this problem (which seems common) and reading over a dozen threads on this forum plus Apple's own official support pages, this is what I've tried:
I can re-download other apps that I have previously purchased on this iPad, with no problems.
I purchased another app on my iPhone 5 and was then able to download onto my iPad with no problems.
I have reset my iPad >5 times - both by pressing/holding the home/power buttons, and also a full switch off and restart.
I have logged out of my iTunes account on the iPad, and logged back in.
The wi-fi is Virgin Media fibre optic broadband with a verified speed of 20 meg (confirmed by Speedtest) plus an 802.11-n Belkin router and my iPad will happily load web pages, stream videos on YouTube, download other apps etc.
I have reset/rebooted my internet connection
In an attempt to eliminate by broadband connection from the possible causes, I have switched off my router, linked my iPad to the hotspot feature on my iPhone and tried to download the app over cellular data, but still cannot download the app.
I have tried on 2 other wi-fi networks but still cannot download this one app.
My iTunes account has a cerdit balance from an iTunes card, but the app was free anyway
Nothing I try will download the app in question.
The app is iPad only, so I cannot install on my iPhone to try and kick-start the process.
I guess I could install the app on my computer and then sync the iPad, but that's *working around* the problem - it's not *fixing* the problem.
(Since getting the iPad I use almost never use my computer. And anyway what if I did not have a computer? Didn't iOS go "PC-free" with version 5?)
I would like to call Apple but my 90-day telephone support has expired (the iPad is around 6 months old) and I don't want to buy Apple Care for this one problem.
I can't make it to an Apple Store to speak to a Genius.
Bearing in mind the list of things I've already tried, what do I do next?
Thanks in advance for any support.Hi there.
Thank you very much for your quick reply, it's really appreciated.
No need to apologize, I actually found the phrase "If your iPad ever craps the bed" amusing under the circumstances
I checked the list of installed apps like you suggested (Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Show all apps) but this problem app is not in the list. I have also swiped down on the home screen to search for it, but again it does not show.
While it has not let me download the app (and I just tried it again) it has helped me to eliminate a few things from the list of what to try, and I can definitely conclude that it has not downloaded.
I guess I need to fire up my PC and download it / sync my iPad.
Thanks again for your help -
IPad 2 Restore - Apps Will NOT Install
I have recently been having intermittent problems with my home button being unresponsive on my iPad 2. I decided I would try a restore to see if this would resolve the problem. The home button issue may be better (more time will tell) but whoa did this create an entire new set of challenges.
What I did:
1) Went into iTunes to update all apps afterwards performed multiple syncs and backups just to be safe.
2) After restore to factory settings was completed I attempted to restore iPad 2 to my latest backup from earlier in the morning.
3) Attempted restore multiple times each time an error message states: The app "x" was not installed on the iPad because the app could not be found
4) The 26 missing Apps appear in iTunes with a "Will Install" button. Pressing this button changes it to "Install". Attempted several additional syncs but apps would not appear on iPad. I also tried to restore with the iPad off, USB disconnected, holding down the home button, attaching the USB Factory Restore to no avail. All of the missing apps are current and available in iTunes such as: Amazon, Google, Facebook, LinkedIn, AroundMe, Yelp, Cards, BBC News, etc...you get it...common basic apps all gone missing.
5) Went into iTunes Store on the iPad 2. Searched in folder for Not on this iPad and Purchased. Several purchased apps were missing from the list but some were there. I tried to manually download the apps that were listed from the Cloud as well as manually enter the app name to re-download and install. All of my missing apps when searched had the Cloud download icon even if they didn't appear in the Not on this iPad or Purchased screens.
6) I am currently attempting to download all the missing apps from the Cloud and will try another sync.
7) What should have been a very short an easy restore has now gone on for over 5 hours as I try multiple syncs, restarts, restores...
Does anyone know what is happening and how to prevent it in the future?
All of my software is up to date. I am running OS X 10.8.4, iOS 6.1.3, all apps were updated on both device and iTunes library this morning prior to restore.
My iTunes settings for backups is set to iCloud automotic however I performed a backup to computer before attempting the initial restore.
Please help!
Thanks!!!I have a similar issue. I recently purchased an iPad Mini, and I started off by backing it up from the apps I had on my iPhone. Now, I have a number of apps that never downloaded and that I don't want on the iPad. Some of these are apps that I don't need, while others are the iPhone versions of apps. There are something like 23 apps that I have no use for, but iTunes tries to install every time I connect. I've also tried clicking the 'Will Install' buttons. There's no way to delete these apps from the iPad without first installing them, as far as I can see, and there's no way to NOT install them, in iTunes.
It''s not just annoying, it's causing problems with installation of larger files and movies. Now, every time I sync to the computer, I get a warning that I'm over capacity by 580 MB, and larger apps will not install! Clicking Revert and a bunch of other things doesn't work, either. And I can't just delete some of the apps, because I or my wife use them on our phones! -
I restored my ipod touch however the apps will not sync. I tried to re-download but I changed my apple id as my old id is no longer a valid email address. Any ideas out there please?
It might be logical to someone, but not to me. I agree it's a pain.
How did you change your Apple ID? Creating a new one is not what you want to do, but if you changed the ID associated with your purchases then that might have worked. You would need to sign in with the Apple ID on both your iPod Touch as well as in iTunes. I'm not sure how you changed it but clearly they need to match.
If it's just your password that is not getting recognized reset it here: http://iforgot.apple.com/
It will send an email confirmation to the email address associated with that Apple ID. The email address you elect to use might not look anything like your Apple ID. If you don't appear to get an email check your spam filter.
