Thanks for your reply......so download cleaner, uninstall creative cloud app? Or all creative cloud apps, photoshop etc?, run cleaner and re install everything

I can't open the creative cloud app installer, i'm getting an error message that says safari cannot open the specified address

i had previously installed it so i could use the 30 day trials, but i deleted i from my machine. now it won't open even though i purchased the creative cloud.

Mebridge please begin the installation process in a different web browser. You can also download the Creative Cloud Desktop application from Creative Cloud Help | Creative Cloud for desktop.

The license allows YOU to install on a 2nd computer... it does not allow someone else to use your license

We have two users that have been using Creative Cloud for almost a year. Recently, sometime in the last 4ish weeks, the users can no longer run Creative Cloud apps. (Yes, our subscription is paid.) Error simply says administrator access is required to install. The apps have already been installed. The users cannot run them unless they are in the local admin group.Using "Run as admin" does not work. It gives the same error.
I have opened a case with adobe support and was basically told to suck it up and put the users in the admin group. Actually, what was said was that it is "mandated that the users have administrative rights".
There are a couple of things wrong with this. It was working for both users until recently - a recent required creative cloud update. The users have never been local admins yet the apps were working (poorly, but working).
We are in an enterprise environment and users simply do not have administrative rights on the computers.
I have changed permissions on all adobe folders, granting users or authenticated users modify or full control rights, did the same in whatever Adobe registry HKLM keys I could find. Nothing has allowed the users to run the apps - unless they are put in the local admin group.
Someone has to have a fix for this. Adobe apps have proved to have far too many vunerabilities to even entertain the idea of elevating user rights. I can't imagine that enterprise environments are allowing this.
Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Jeff,
Thank you for your response. The users in question are "standard" domain users. We do not reduce users permissions below the standard level.
The apps do not load with their current standard user permissions.
The thing that makes this odd, is that up until recently they did this issue with cloud apps. The only way I can make it work for them now is to put them in the local administrator group on their pc's - which is not going to happen.
This is what they now see. As I said before, this was not a problem up until recently they would see all their available apps. If I put them in the local admin group the apps are listed without having to install. Everything is there, just not accessible to the user.

Newly installed Acrobat will NOT open from Creative Cloud app on Desktop using Windows 7 Pro - what's the problem?

Newly installed Acrobat will NOT open from Creative Cloud app on Desktop using Windows 7 Pro - what's the problem?

the cc desktop app is used to install and update cc programs (and a few other thinigs). but that does not include 'opening' the installed programs.
click your start button or your program files directory to find the acrobat executable to launch acrobat (and any of your other apps, adobe or otherwise).

I've just purchased CC and can't download the creative cloud app? Help would be appreciated! :)

I can't download the Creative Cloud App?
After purchasing CC Complete, it says to click here to download the app and it just takes me to a white page with the four loading squares that just keep circling.
If necessary to know, I have a MacBook Pro and great internet connection.

Why can't I download Creative Cloud apps?

Hi
I joined the Creative Cloud Photography Offer.
I logged in.
I can see the page Apps & Services.
When I select Creative Cloud App it only opens the header to that page. No content displays. I cannot therefore download anything. Same with Lightroom or PS.
I tried other pages, but Adobe home page, Learn Page, and Customer Service all say Safari can't connect to server.
I can see these pages if I open Adobe website on my Windows laptop and iPad.
I have reset Safari, turned off plug-ins, updated Flash Player and Java, reset Safari, but no luck.
I have tried using Firefox and have the same issue. I still cannot connect with most of your website from my Mac, which is where I do all my photo editing.
I am currently on my PC laptop, as my Mac cannot access the customer service chat or the forums.
I have Mavericks installed on my Mac

It turns out that Adobe is editing the Hosts file on the Mac, preventing those browsers from reaching adobe.com
Locate the terminal app and run it.
Open the hosts file by typing the following in the Terminal window and pressing return:
sudo nano /private/etc/hosts
Type your user password XXXXX prompted.
If you see references to Adobe, that is what is preventing the connection.

How many computers can I install my Creative Cloud apps on? May 5, 2012 5:57 AM -- Cloud Busted!!!!

Ok so i was just about to sign up for the cloud... having big problems with the Application Manager not being able to connect to the Interent (???) and re-directed to Customer Service. S aw this question about how many machines one can install on... blown away by Adobe's answer... 2!!!
2? Two? Deux??? Are you guys for real? This is 2013... we have many more than 2 devices... the subscription should be for me, not my machines.
I suppose i do notunderstand the meaning of a Cloud based Solution. Is it me or is Adobe out to lunch on this one? And b4 the Adobe ppl respond telling me to 'review the licensing agreement' like it the original (locked) post... perhaps it is you, Adobe people, who should review your licensing agreement!!! I see no reason to pay Adobe for a Cloud Solution now. It serves no purpose that I can see. Unfortunate... re-tool it Adobe and get back to me.

Hi pacman,
You can install the creative cloud apps on as many device as you want, but simultaneously you will be allowed to use only 2 device at a time as per EULA(end user license agreement).
You can contact Adobe support they will let you know more about the creative cloud membership.

I can't install the Creative Cloud app for desktop...

I've tried several times to install the creative cloud app (or any other app for that matter), I can download it but it won't install. I'm using windows 7. This is the message I get ...
I've been to the customer support website and followed the instructions for minimising start up apps and anti virus software - no luck! I've just signed up for cloud membership and I'm losing my patience with this, could someone at Adobe please help.
Many thanks

I can't open the creative cloud.

So, the adobe updater said their was an update available, and i tried to install it and the creative cloud opens, but it just stays on the loading screen and nothing happens. Then i try to open the creative cloud program it opens then shuts off. I can't access the creative cloud at all. I can get on to every other program I have but the creative cloud itself.

Creative Cloud (app) crashes on startup after update

After the last update (which probably went wrong), creative cloud application (the menubar app) crashes on startup.
I've tried uninstalling (uninstaller stalls) and running Creative Cloud Cleanup Tool but to no avail.
Below I've included an excerpt of the crash report from the log (I could post the complete log report but that seems to cause troubles posting).
Anybody have any suggestions?

Can't open AppStore and Email app after installing the OSX Update 10.8.3

Hi there, after I installed the OSX 10.8.3 update I can't open my Email and App Store apps. This is the popup message that appears when i try to open those apps. I tried to reinstall the app but I can't open my App Store. I also downloaded and installed the OSX Update 10.8.3 and the 10.8.2 again from the download support page, but I couldn't solve my problem. Does anyone knows how can i fix it?

Back up all data.
Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with proxy servers, or with networks that require a certificate for authentication.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, follow the prompts to reinstall the OS. You don't need to erase the boot volume, and you won't need your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade, so make a note of those before you begin.

How many computers can I install my Creative Cloud apps on?

You can install the apps available in Creative Cloud on your primary computer and one backup computer, as long as they are not running at the same time. You will have access to both the Mac OS and Windows versions, so if you have a Mac at home and a PC at work, for example, you can install your applications on both. See the product license agreements page for more information.

Jeff,
Here is a concern I have. I called sales support yesterday and asked the following questions.   I have 3 computers (1) PC tower, (1) iMac and (1) MacBook Pro.   When I first started using Adobe all the way through CS5 Master Collection I always owned the Windows Box Versions. I have been waiting for months for this to come out so I could move my workflow over to MacOS X.    Since the Creative Cloud supports both MAC and Windows installs the question I asked was can I install it on both my 2 Mac Computers. Then if I need to use it on my PC can I simply deactivate and then activate on it for use?
The answer your support person gave was "YES" So the answer in this topic don't even flow with the answers from calling the 800 number!
So now reading this forum topic I am really confused.   I like many others have definate reasons why I may want to flip flop the machine I am using the software on (1) I have $4500 worth of AE plug-ins. $2000 worth of these are platform specific. So they only run on a windows machine. Even, though I intend on my primary workflow to be used on a MAC there may come a time when I need to use one of these plug-ins and then would have to switch my activation to the PC to use it.
Another scenario, Let's face it Apple has not been to keen on upgrading the Mac Pro system's. iMac's are great but have their limitations with graphics cards, drives, and memory. So if you go a complicated AE render to do,iIt makes a lot more sense to run it on a PC at this time for me. So my hope here is I would de-activate one of my MAC's activate my PC then render away.
I like many others completely understand that we are only suppose to operate our software on 1 machine at a time. I am cool with you checking this. Other posters have asked what if I forget to turn one machine off leave with my MacBook Pro and then fire it up. Will I be in trouble? Not sure how you handle this if you don't have a connection. But Spotify the music streaming company license their software to me the user. If I fire up one machine, Then grab my iPhone and try to listen it turns it off on the other machine. Apps in the app store like MotionX Drive do the same thing.
I am an Electrical Automation Engineer by day and a Graphic/Video Designer Enthusiast at night.   In all the programming software that every vendor provides they provide a licensing server software service that sits locally within the location. It manages concurrent licenses, without the need for online connections. Any computer needing to run simply pulls the license from the network connected license server software service. When the program is done it releases the license. The only issues with this is if your license server crashes. It can be a bit of a headache with support to get your license back.   Others simply have an online site (like Apple) Where you simply log in and de-activate devices as needed. (Heck even Hulu, and Netflix offer this.)
I think if Adobe wants the Cloud thing to take off then they need to re-evaluate this. The license needs to follow the user not the device. The user should have a painless simple way to activate and de-activate their license back to their Adobe ID.
