Cannot Install Creative cloud OR Adobe Application Manager on brand new install of Windows 7 64bit

Here is where I've been today...
I started out this process formatting my C drive (a 120gb SSD),
then I reinstalled windows 7 64bit from scratch
then I ran ALL of the updates "Windows Update" suggessted
then I installed google chrome
then I logged into creative cloud and whent to the download center and I think I clicked on like Adobe Acrobat XI pro or I might have clicked on the actual "Creative Cloud" download
then I opened the installer and it got to about here:
And then it popped up with this "Sorry, there seems to be a problem with the download process (Error code: A12E5). For troubleshooting tips, please visit our customer support page.":
Then I I tried what I thought was the next best second option.... I downloaded the Adobe Application Manager ("ApplicationManager7.0_all"). After the successful download of said installer
Then I ran the installer and told it to unpack it's gear on my desktop. It sort of did, but before it was done it gave me this error: "a problem occurred while extracting some files. check available space on your computer and write privileges on destination folder":
Then I tried to run the akward result of the "failed" extraction (see pic below):
Which just so happened to have a healthy looking setup file in it:
So naturally I ran the setup file and got this error "we've encountered the following issues installer failed to initialize. please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem" which gave me two options "Get Support Advisor" or "quit":
Guess what I did next... I clicked "Get Support advisor"
Downloaded the windows version... install seemed to go alright and then after this I ran the software package and sure enough I found out that the system is doing great no errors were found!~ Sweet! "inspection could not identify any issues. Please contact Adobe Support for further Assistance." and as it sugessted Iwent over to http://www.adobe.com/support/ and poked around for quite a while and gave up
A diffrent thread (http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/a12e1-error-downloading-creative-cloud.html) seemed to suggest that it was the downloading of the installer that was causing the issue. So I tried downloading the installer from every possible source that I can find... Mozilla, Chrome, Internet Explorer "IE" 11, I searched despratly for a way to turn off the "Download manager" and all of this has been to no avail!
I tried a few other things which I cannot recall (I think one of them was downloading it through mozilla which had a little more promise.) and I think I also tried what was suggested in this thread: "http://forums.adobe.com/message/5386547"
Here is a quote from that thread:

Hi Shawn, Are you on MAC or Win ?
Try this :
Rename OOBE folder to OOBE_old located :
Win 7 64 bit : C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\
Win 7 32 bit : C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe
MAC: Macintosh HD/Library/Applciation support/Adobe/
Delete opm.db file located at :
Win 7 :C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
MAC : ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe
Then try to install AAM again, it should install without any issues.
This process was what I THINK what produced the "Adobe Application Manager" Icon on my desktop!
which I then clicked hopefully!
It then began to update "OH BOY!!!"
Then I was greated with the still stark reality that I was wrong to have silly hopes... and it coldly told my boyish heart "We encountered the following issues: Sorry, there seems to be a problem with the download process (Error Code: A12E5). For troubleshooting tips, please visit our customer support page."
I've tried just about everything I know how to try... I need this software up an running or my job is on the line YIKES!
Please help! God bless you for doing so!

>a 120gb SSD
Your 1st message also said "check available space"
I don't use SSD drives, but my C drive has Win7 64bit Pro + CS5 Master Collection + MS Office Pro + "misc" small programs and files + all my MS Office documents in My Documents folder... and I use 71Gig
Your 120Gig SSD should be plenty large... EXCEPT... I have NO IDEA how much space is used for temporary files during download + install
Otherwise, you may need to contact Adobe chat... Next link has a "Chat Now" button near the bottom

Everything else from Cloud has installed correctly.
I am probably doing something wrong as I am very new to Adobe. Please Help.
P.S. I have tried uninstalling/ Adobe Air
All sorted now!!!
I just uninstalled all Adobe Applications and reinstalled and everything is working fine.

Hi
Please try removing Adobe Extension manager and install it again. After re-install of Extension Manager try to update Light room.
If it does not resolve the issue please do a complete clean using adobe cleaner tool and reinstall everything.
Thanks

I try to download components for CS Cloud. Adobe Application Manager freezes. Working with Win XP

I try to download components for CS Cloud. Adobe Application Manager freezes. Working with Win XP. What can I do?

You need to provide a lot more info like what apps you are trying to download, what exactly seems to be going on, exact system specs, Internet connection info, whether AAM is up to date and so on....

Adobe Application Manager says Lightroom is installed. Its not.

I have been migrating my apps to a new drive and now I cant install Lightroom couse Adobe Application Manager says Lightroom is installed allready. What to do???

We have to Re-name the OOBE folder and so we will be able to install the software from AAM, once it is installed we can undo the OOBE folder.
Mac HD> Application support > Adobe> OOBE
For 32 bit : C:\Program Files > Common Files > Adobe\ OOBE
For 64 bit: C:\Program Files( X 86) > Common Files > Adobe\ OOBE
You can re-name the OOBE folder as OOBE.old.
Note: Please don't forget the Re-name the OOBE.old as OOBE once the software is installed.

Adobe application manager fails to update/install

Please help me resolve this error and update App Manger properly.
I have downloaded and am running Creative Cloud CS6 versions of Illustrator and Photoshop that I installed back in Decmember. Now I'm trying to download more applications and am encountering this error:
I click 'download' on InDesign (for example)
Download initiates launch of Application manager, App manager opens main window then "initializing installer window"
Application manager flashes this warning for a split second: "other instances of adobe application manager are currently running which must be closed before installing this product. Please close or wait for them to complete." (see image). This warning closes on its own after just a second.
Then it continues to install for a few minutes, asks for my password then fails with the message, "We've encountered the following issues, Adobe Application manager failed to install" (no error number, see image)
Photoshop and Illustrator still run fine, but none of my Adobe apps (including Air) will update properly now. I have tried deleting the App Manger files from applications > utilities and re-installing, but that also creates an error.
I have searched for duplicate app manager files but have come up empty. I've run the support advisor app and it checks out fine. I have a token from that if it helps.
I'm running iMac 10.6.8 and I also have CS5 installed on this computer if it makes a difference.
Any help would be appreciated. I'd like to be able to run the apps I'm currently paying a monthly fee for.

I'm going to write this information cause it was so darn frustrating and after two days I finally got it - so here goes - resolution:
I'm running windows 7, and was trying to download cloud which apparently I was forced to do based on my subscription base (was on CS6 before that)
Step 1: start task manager and close ALL adobe running apps including akami session
Step 2: click on the windows icon and type in search bar %appdata%, enter
Step 3: in browser bar above of folder, click on "appdata" (my file directory when i typed step two was C:\Users\study\AppData\Roaming, and I need to be be at C:\Users\study\AppData)
Step 4: Click Local, then Adobe, then oobe, delete the oobe file
Step 5: Go the the following to download the "cleaner tool": http://download.macromedia.com/pub/creativecloud/cleanertool/win/Adobe_Creative_Cloud_Clea ner_Tool.zip
Step 6: Unzip the file and click on the AdobeCreativeSuiteCleanerTool.exe, that was in my directory as follows (dependent on where you download and unzip of course) C:\Users\study\Downloads\adobe_creative_suite_cleaner_tool (1)\win
Step 7: select (e) in the black box for "english", select (y) for yes, select creative cloud (whichever option # that is) and again anything with creative cloud (this did NOT delete my other adobe files, which I feared may - but I was simply instructing it to clean/delete the creative cloud.
Step 8: close the black window
Step 9: Click here: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4773 and download the creative cloud adobe application manager
Step 10: Run the application
Step 11: Log in and download the software you want
If that doesn't work, what I did is between steps 4 and 5 I restarted my computer, then I went into task manager and closed all adobe apps. I'm not sure I had to do this step but I was desperate after 2 days doing whatever. Each tech person gave me different information. The last person helped me best, but I spoke with her via chat AFTER I had rebooted the computer. If you need support click http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html and I personally did the "chat" so I wouldn't have to wait.
Hope this helps anyone who hasn't figured it out!

"Product you are trying to install is not genuine" - Adobe Application Manager error message.

Trying to launch the AAM and getting the error message that says "Adobe Genuine Software Validation Failure. The product you are trying to install is not an Adobe Genuine Software and appears to be counterfeit".
I've been subscribed to the creative cloud for four months, never had any trouble before, I'm not trying to download anything and nothing on this computer is counterfeit.
Any help?

Hello,
This behavior is due to a known issue (details at http://blogs.adobe.com/psirt/2012/09/security-advisory-adobe-to-revoke-code-signing-certif icate-apsa12-01-2.html). Fortunately, the solution is simple.
You need to download the latest version of Adobe Application Manager from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4773. After you install it, the error will go away.

Amit

Secondary computer install files for the Adobe Application Manager?

I am installing CC for teams on my work laptop (my secondary computer next to my desktop Mac). Where can I get an install file for AAM?

Creative Suite 6, Adobe Application Manager doesn't work.

When I lunched AAM, the error message is: "There is running another instance of Adobe application Manager program. Please close the another instance" How can I solve the issue ?

You have to provide system info and otehr details. Other AAM instances would only be active if you ran updates on your apps or invoked some otehr online feature from within the programs.

Not getting the option to install creative cloud. Only trial version or choose new plan

Hi,
I'm trying to install Photoshop on a second computer. Problem is I can't find the installer for Creative Cloud. When I log in at adobe.com and go to products, all i get is the option to get a trial version or sign up for a new plan. It's like it thinks I'm not already on a plan.
Explicitly going to menu -> pc apps -> clicking the creative cloud icon takes me to the general creative cloud promotional page. I can't see any option to just install the creative cloud app.
Am I missing something? Seached the forums and all the replies just tell me to go to adobe.com/products and install.

Oh, it was that simple?
Tried it and it worked just like you said. It's downloading now. Thank you so much!
Got to say that's a bit of baffling gui design. One would think a link to install Creative Cloud would be one of the main things needed for the account page on the website. Not only did I have to do something I didn't want to do (get the trial), but after installing the manager, it immediately started downloading and installing photoshop. I really hope it's not installing the trial version. I guess I'll have to wait and see.
Regardless, that solves this question. Again, thanks for the quick help. Have a nice day!

Cannot install Illustrator CS6 from Adobe Application Manager

I just signed up for Creative Cloud, and am getting the message "The download appears corrupted. Press Cancel, wait a few minutes and try again (-60)" error when trying to install Illustrator using the Application Manager.

HFS File system with case sensitive is not accepted to install creative cloud? Is there any other way but install the whole MacOS again after formatting the drive. I cannot belief that Adobe is so bad to it's Mac customers..

After many hours setting up OS10.10 from he scratch the last step should be installing m Adobe apps again.
trying this I always get the error message that creative cloud does not accept case sensitive file systems and I shall use another drive.
This means I have to set up the whole machine again after formatting without case sensitive but then having copy problems with my NAS?
I cannot belief that Adobe is really demanding this. If so this would show how urgent this market need alternatives and some more competition...

Hi,
You can refer below link for more information.

Mac creative cloud client and application manager hang up

I have tried several times to download lightroom using my creative cloud account and each time, the computer attempts to open the creative cloud client and/or the application manager program which proceeded to attempt to open, to no avail.

I have the same problem in Windows.
Application manager starts the download then says download corrupt try again later.
Trying latter doesn't help.
I also cant download the trial version of Lightroom direct from Adobe to try and install it without application manager. The trial download link doesn't work.
