CC and internet connection affecting ACR and Photoshop

If I am offline for extended periods in location that don't have internet (yes they do exist) and I'm talking about more than 30 days (again yes some of us are without internet for more than 30 days) what happens when I want to work on the photos that I've been busy shooting during that time? Will ACR and PS suddenly stop working becasue they are cloud based and need to check in with big brother to check my subs? If the day I arrive abroad and Abode suddenly decides that today is the day they are going to check that I've paid to play this stupid new game of cloud based software and I cannot get online then what happens? Will I lose the ability to work till I get back online, surely not?? Abode has covered this eventuality I'm presuming, they aren't stupid enough surely to not have right? Thanks in advance for any insights. Bob

The FAQ sheet says
Once you download and activate, you can work offline for up to 99 days (plus a 7 day grace) between needing to be online”

  • I'm on a slow internet connection can I download photoshop cc directly at another location to install?

    Hi I'm trying to get photoshop installed on a computer at a location with slow internet and it's taking way too long. Can I download it somehow when I'm at another location to install here? I can't seem to find anything about that?

    ...and the monthly is supposed to be 30 days? Not many times a day? I will do the annual next time, but had no idea I was going to have extra issues by paying monthly. Logically I'd expect an annual payment to keep Photoshop authenticated for 364 days as long as it is the same computer. Why 99 days? Can I switch midstream?
    I won't mention what I'd really like is to go back to perpetual licenses That is the correct answer IMO, but Adobe has spoken. Notice I said that with a smile.
    I have no local network to deal with, just the computer I use directly connected to a router alone. I am the business; my staff of 5 or 6 and myself that is. Our network involves yelling hey (fill in the name) across the office. I gave up the corporate grind 28 years ago.
    It's been fine for the last few tries after having issues as often as three or four times an hour last week. No changes have been made between when it was really problematic and now that it seems to be OK. Could it be an incompatibility with some other software? It does seem random and I've seen this off and on for two years. I had the full boat CC for the first year and this same thing happened inexplicably every few weeks. Seems to be related to updates to the actual CC utility, but I'm no techie, I shoot photo's and market products.
    For now it's OK as I'll just use the copy of 6 I own in the field.
    Thanks so much for staying with this. I'm good and you can close this out.

  • Is the internet connection affected by install of thunderbolt?

    can't connect to internet.  Checked sys preferences and it wants me to allow Thunderbolt network connection.  Can I avoid this?  No need for me to use Thunderbolt.

  • Can I install Adobe Photoshop in my laptop and access it without any Internet connection?

    Can I install Adobe Photoshop in my laptop and access it without any Internet connection?

    Perpetual versions you can and it possible to to activate them offline.  Offline Activation
    The Creative Cloud versions can be installed offline but you need an Internet connection to activate the installed applications,  I also believe Adobe has recently made the Creative cloud desktop application an mandatory install.  It need not be running at all times however it will be installed.

    Ned, thanks for responding. Internet access is not the problem, I will have a tower computer connected to Comcast.
    Isolating the laptop  from the internet is the issue.

  • I receive the error, "No Internet Connection" and my Adobe Creative applications are crashing on a regular basis.

    I keep getting the same errors with the damn Creative Cloud application on my Windows 7 machine, which IS connected to a LAN and IS actively connected to the internet at the time the error routinely appears in the midst of tasks.  I have checked root certificates, manually checked my hosts file and run the tests outlined above to both Adobe addresses.
    In fact, the error kept occuring while I was on an over 3-1/2 hour call with a very through and nice representative from Adobe who had remote screen access at the time (through Adobe connect) and could see the error repeatedly occuring!
    Her comment, "This just happens sometimes with this application and there's not a patch for it yet",  The problem I was having with Photoshop CS6 and Photoshop CC was so severe that I had to do a SYSTEM RESTORE which then started  affecting other Adobe applications because Windows had erased part of the programs (or all of some programs) but Adobe's software saw them as still installed, that she had me uninstall ALL Adobe Creative Cloud applications using the Adobe Cleaner Tool and reinstall everyting from SCRATCH. She and I had tried numerous other ways to repair the problems I was having with updates not installing correctly AND constant program freezing, etc. before this taking this extreme step. 
    I'm a professional programmer / software / web designer, so I had tried for hours correct the issues the previous night and had tried once overnight to reach someone in Adobe support only to be told of over an hour wait time by the automation and not offered a callback. 
    Anyway, despite her best assistance this afternoon (and double confirmation that everything tested correctly), it has taken, so far, well over six hours to reinstall only a portion of what I need for my work and on a deadline because the application keeps reporting "No Internet Connection" and I have programs cued to install unattended.  I am now way behind schedule on some design projects which MUST BE COMPLETED by deadline and require Adobe's software to be installed and function correctly.
    Adding to this, Windows Explorer has repeatedly crashed after installing the damn Creative Cloud application and works normally when it's removed and "cleaned" ... and I've seen so many problems with the install system, etc. that I have to wonder what in the hell the company was thinking when this approach was launched?
    I generally have liked -- and indeed loved -- some of Adobe's products in the past, but the recent experience has certainly been costly in time and disappointing. 
    Many other software manufacters integrate suites, perform updates and confirm licenses without such a buggy, time intensive and unreliable process -- including my own company. 
    Aside from complaining at this point, I wish somebody from Adobe would provide alternative install methods and / or a fullproof fix for this bug and some of the other installation bugs many of us experience.  Any thoughts, advice, knowing that not only I -- but also the Adobe Support Staff Person accessing my computer LIVE -- tried the various "fixes"?

    Branching this to a new discussion as the previous discussion was related to the inability to connect and download the installation software.
    Rob it does sound like you are facing some connection and stability difficulties.  Do you manage your network youself?  I am a bit concerned by the fact that you have stated that you periodically loose Internet connection while completing certain tasks.  Does this affect your ability to utilize the already installed Adobe Creative software?
    I would also recommend reviewing your installation logs to determine if any errors occured during the installation process.  Please see Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cc.html for information on how to locate and interpret your installation log files.  Please feel free to post any specific errors you discover to this discussion thread.

  • Internet connection suddenly slow for iMac but OK for iPad and iPod

    A few days ago the  WIFI internet connection on my iMac suddenly became so slow as to be unusable. However my iPad and iPod Touch on the same network still connect as normal. I have tried everything I can think of together with some ideas posted on various forums, including the following:
    Rebooting and reformating the router - a Netgear DG834G v2
    Connecting the iMac to the router via ethernet cable
    Trying different channels on the wireless network
    Altering the physical position of the router
    Using Disk Utility to repair the hard drive on the iMac
    Using Disk Utility to repair permissions on the iMac
    Disconnecting the two external hard drives (one used for Time Machine) in case they were affecting performance
    Running anti-virus software on the iMac and deleting any infected files
    Disabling the anti-virus software
    Deleting the network location on iMac and creating a new one
    Trying different DNS servers including 208.67.222.222 / 208.67.220.220 and 8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4
    Removing Skype from the iMac - the application my daughter was using when the connection suddenly became slow
    Trying to browse in both Safari and Firefox
    Resetting caches on the iMac
    Rebooting the iMac after trying all the above
    Swearing at the computer
    Pulling my hair out!
    None of these have made any difference. Sometimes when I reboot the iMac the first page I browse to loads reasonably quickly but then it immediately slows to a crawl again. The iPad is still connecting perfectly so I don't think it's an issue with the router.
    The iMac is a 24-inch 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4 GB 800 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    Running OS X 10.7.5
    The hard drive has a capacity of 320 GB with 62 GB free.
    I'm at my wits' end trying to sort this out and don't know what else to try.
    PLEASE HELP!

    Hi BDAqua,
    In Disk Utility the disk is listed as S.M.A.R.T. Verified and comes up with no errors when checked.
    Activity Monitor: with no other applications open Activity Monitor itself is using the greatest percentage of the CPU at approx 3%. Opening Safari and trying to load a web page initially used about 20% but immediately dropped back to less than 1%.
    Whilst trying to open the web page I noticed on the Network tab that the Data received/sec is generally between 0-20 bytes/sec, sometimes jumps to a couple of hundred bytes/sec and very occasionally peaks at about 1,000 bytes/sec. Data sent/sec is generally mirroring data received.
    Free RAM is at 2.5 GB and free disk space is just short of 63 GB (out of a total capacity of 320GB).
    In Console I am getting the following messages:
    usbmuxd: AMDeviceConnect (thread 0x100781000): could not connect to lockdown port (62078) on device 6 - d81bda1a752c658f30b839f53ca2fdb6a55f4816: 0xe8000084

    Thanks for your help. It's really appreciated. By the way, it's taking me forever to type all this on my iPad!

  • My IPOD and Macbook Pro both will not connect to the Itunes store through Itunes says no internet connection, but I can connect through safari and I have a internet connection

    My IPOD and Macbook Pro both will not connect to the Itunes store through Itunes says no internet connection, but I can connect through safari and I have a internet connection

    As I mentioned above, I am not very tech savvy so I have no idea why a wireless protocol would be showing up there, I'm just listing everything I see in hopes that someone might know something I can try. This is why I am asking for help here - I'm not sure what has happened that has made me unable to connect, especially since it seemingly occured while nobody was using the computer.
    I guess I should clarify that I'm not a total hillbilly- normally my firewall is set to 'on', but I set it to 'off' to try and troubleshoot the issues here as I was told that sometimes it can interfere with the computer's ability to connect to the internet. If this is not the case and firewall does not affect anything, I will turn it back on while I try to fix this.
    I have tried the method you mentioned above a few times - I actually contacted my ISP earlier this week and they recommended resetting the router like that. They didn't mention any known network issues.

  • Hi there can anyone help. I am connected to the internet by ethernet but my connection keeps timing out and my network diagnostics shows all green and network connection ok but still no internet connection. the other wireless laptop in my flat works well.

    Hi there can anyone help. I am connected to the Internet by Ethernet but my connection keeps timing out and my network diagnostics shows all green and network connection ok but still no Internet connection. the other wireless laptop in my flat works well. Could the other wireless laptops being used in my flat be affecting my connection. what can I do to get connected, keep connected. Thanks for any ideas out there.

    My network connected for a few hours then went back to timing out. I have not changed anything. However there four additional laptop users in my family who do not seem to be having any problems using their wireless connection. Could their film and music downloads be causing the timing out of my connection and if so is there a way I could prioritizes my computer or limit their use?

  • Windows 7 Ultimate (64-Bit) fresh install, only WLAN and video driver installed but EXTREMELY slow internet connection...

    I recently checked my internet connection on my Asus G53SW and found that it was extremely slow on both the LAN and WLAN connections. I checked with a different laptop (old HP Pavilion) and I get a steady 74mbps+ connection using the same LAN cable and
    also with the WLAN connection. My ISP has checked their side and everything is fine.
    To try and resolve the issue I tried uninstalling, disabling and tweaking various software and even tried safe mode with networking, all to no avail. I then decided to do a complete fresh install this afternoon. I have installed Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit)
    successfully onto my SSD and everything went smoothly. I have now only installed Nvidia video drivers and the (only) WLAN driver from the Asus support site.
    My WLAN connection remains incredibly slow (amost half what it is on the HP and my MacBook Pro). Clearly this is an issue with either the Asus laptop or Windows but I don't know how to proceed in order to eliminate which it could be other than to try a different
    o/s to W7-Ult.
    Can anyone help who knows more about this than me? Perhaps someone who has had a similar or the same problem because this is giving me a severe headache!
    Thanks in advance to all and for any advice.

    Thank you for responding. As I stated in my original post the reason I went through this process was because of an extremely slow internet connection from both the WLAN and LAN connections on my G53SW. At that time I had all of the correct drivers on the
    machine. Whilst I would agree that with the machine only having a video and WLAN driver it may well not be working 'optimally', the rationale for doing this was to get the machine working with the minimum of processes to show that it was not anti-virsu software,
    Steam or the like causing interference.
    I have changed out both of the HDDs this evening (a primary SSD and a secondary 1Tb HDD) for a clean hybrid 1Tb Seagate drive. Once I have installed all of the Asus drivers (and nothing else) I will try the speed test again and report back.
    I can now report that with a fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 and ONLY Asus drivers as supplied the issue remains. On a connection where I should see around 75mbps I am actually getting around 18mbps, sometimes considerably slower. This only affects
    my Asus machine.

  • As I open my computer, there's a notification telling me to allow these files for a connection, which are very unsual for my mac. I allowed one and my date and time reset to january 1 of 2001. It caused my internet connection to stop working properly.

    Please help me figure out what causes my internet connection and airport extreme run erratically.  It occurred twice already and my only solution is to reset the date and time, and restart my macbook pro. after that, everything seems to work perfectly again. This is only problem that my macbook pro encountered for two years. Thanks!

    Re: Is Iphoto gone ? i want it back!
    in response to Johannes666
    Recommended
    Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
    If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
    Install the App from the App Store.
    Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

  • Airport and internet connection

    Can anyone help me with this? My internet connection has been a problem off and on for years but now, its unbearable. I have a wireless setup. For years I used my airport extreme base station to hook up to the internet. I would lose the connection and have to reboot the base station to get the internet signal back. Finally, I used my airport express as the base station and the problem disappeared for awhile but eventually, I had the same problem. My internet provider is Time Warner. I exchanged the modem and the cable. It was fine for awhile but here I am again! I just bought a new router, Belkin N Wireless Router and things seemed to be looking up but no! The signal is strong in one room but as I move to my living room which isn't that far (I live in a NYC apt) the signal fades out! This is maddening! Anyone got any suggestions on what is going on? HELP!

    there are a lot of things that can affect a wireless signal. are there a lot of wifi's in your building? if so, they might be using the same wireless channel, which will cause interference, which you will see as the fading out.
    there could also be something in the walls that is interfering with your wifi.
    right after you reboot your wifi, is the signal good through out your apartment? if so, that would suggest to me that you're getting some kind of interference. do a google search for 'wifi locator's' for your operating system and find one that will list what channel each wifi is on. look through the list to see what everyone is using, and then pick one that is not in use by the others. the best channels to use are 1, 6 or 11.
    you will also have to go into your router and do some advanced configuration, but the manual and their tech support should be able to help you with it.
