Creative Cloud Desktop app won't install error 207; Adobe server?

Is there a problem with some of Adobe.com servers? My employer just purchased a CC subscription for my work Mac, and the CC Desktop App won't install. I've restarted my Mac, quit all Adobe products, redownloaded the DMG file (creativecloudinstaller.dmg), and checked to make sure my firewall is off. But I still get an error message #207. My DNS servers are set to the same ones that other Macs in my group are set to, and they have CC on their Macs.
I don't know if it's related, but I can't load "adobe.com" in my browser, either. All other webpages are fine, including (obviously) this forum.
I am using OS 10.8.5, connected via Ethernet, and my browser is Chrome.

Thank you for your help, Ned. I also called Adobe help via phone, and he confirmed that my company's server needed to whitelist several Adobe sites. The company had revised their servers not long ago, and evidently did not transfer their old whitelists (which is why my coworkers had previously been able to access Creative Cloud). The phone support person emailed me a helpful list that I could forward to our company's tech support center—but the link you supplied in your response was also perfectly relevant.

I get a download error on the creative cloud desktop app. When I click reload applications it remains the same. How can I get this message to be removed?

Hi Bericala,
Same issue has been discussed in the below mentioned link.
1) Creative Cloud "Download Error" message
2) Creative Cloud - Download error - stubborn error
Let me know if it helps.
P.S - If this or any other response helps answer your question, please take a moment to mark the response as helpful or correct to make it easier for future users to find the solution to the same issue

I can't login from the desktop app - "Login error. Please contact the Admin."

1) Does anyone have the same problem as described below?
2) Does anyone know how to fix it?
When I try to "work online" from the desktop app, I get asked to log out of offline, then log into online. When I put in my username and password, it gives me the error "Login error. Please contact the Admin." I've clicked the link "Trouble logging in?" and followed instructions to reset my password, which I successfully reset to a new one. I still get the error.
I have a subscription to Adobe Story Plus and am working offline/online using the desktop app. I haven't logged in to sync my documents in about a month. My account is in good standing (paid 2 weeks ago according to my account transactions screen). I'm now trying to collaborate, so it's important that I be able to sync.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
John

Hi Rohit,
Thanks for your response. I've resolved the problem myself, and you may be
interested to know how in case it happens again with another user - I
thought maybe it was a versioning discrepancy and I was right (I assume).
However, I couldn't update my desktop software (or I couldn't figure out
how to update it) until I rebooted my machine, then Story went into an
auto-update sequence.
After it updated, it logged in and sync'd just fine. Classic "help"
question where the answer basically was: reboot. I shouldn't tried that
before I posted!
I hope that helps.
Thanks,
John

Does Apple still use a checksum hash (or take other steps) to prevent Songbird media player desktop app from opening?

Hello. I've downloaded and installed Songbird for Mac desktop three times. When I try to open the application its icon briefly appears in the dock, but after several seconds it crashes without opening. My MacPro meets and exceeds the listed software requirements. Any ideas why the app won't open? According to http://www.zdnet.com/blog/open-source/what-might-end-apples-open-source-pass/313 0, "For those unfamiliar with the story, Apple began "protecting" its iTunesDB file (necessary for syncing) with a checksum hash in September 2007. This kept people from using other music programs like Winamp and Songbird, alongside iPod files." That's ancient history now, and Apple does even allow the Songbird mobile app for iPhone. There is no Songbird app in the App Store though, and attempts to open the desktop app file downloaded from Songbird's site result in the problem described.
Possibility: I have a large iTunes music library - 16K+ songs - would Songbird refuse to open due to potential stability issues with importing a library that size?
Found a similar issue on the Songbird support boards here: https://getsatisfaction.com/songbird/...
Based on that info I opened Terminal and entered
/Applications/Songbird.app/Contents/MacOS/songbird -ProfileManager &
This opened a small dialog box that allowed me to specify a default user (but would not allow the default user name to be re-named). I was then able to go through several windows and opt to have my iTunes library imported, to have several Songbird apps imported, and to not provide user details. The window then closed, and the Songbird icon again disappeared from the dock. Crash.
Meanwhile, the Terminal app now displayed
this.addToLibrary is null in SBPlaylistCommand_AddToLibrary ?!!
I then entered the original command again, opened the default user box again, but then the default user dialog box closed and again the Songbird icon disappeared from the dock. Crash.
Attempted to open Songbird from the Applications folder with the same result: the default user box appeared briefly, then closed and the Songbird icon disappeared from the dock. Crash.
Any other ideas that might help this to open, or does Apple feel threatened and is therefore preventing users from accessing the app?

Songbird working exactly how it should here under Mountain Lion 10.8.2 Maybe try uninstalling as per manufacturer's instructions and reinstalling most recent version. I would be hesitant to muck around with a non responsive program as such with Terminal before exploring other Troubleshooting Paths such as other Third Party conflicts. Have you installed any anti-virus software? MacKeeper, Little Snitch or similar? Can you post a crash report. That may help further.But definately working as it should here.

Connection to a database hosted on line from a local desktop app

Hi there,
I have a desktop C# app with a sql server database. the application can be networked fine on a local network.
but now I need to host the database on the internet so clients in other campuses can also access the database with the desktop app installed on their machines.bug
my question is: is this possible or I have to develop an asp version of the software?
if possible what options do I have and what will it cost me because all this is running on a tight budget.
any response will be highly appreciated.
thank u so much for even reading through this.

That is quite possible to get server space from a service provider, however I have not yet requested for such space. Please google it and I am sure that you will find many options, cost variation and facilities.
Please check with experts

Servlet to Desktop App

I have a speecific question...
I have a mobile device connecting to a servlet, when the mobile device does some action, the action is sent to the servlet.
I then want the servlet to do some action to the desktop application.
I want to know is it possible to have the servlet and the desktop app communicate simply?
They are on the one machine and i want to avoid using the net for them to talk to each other
Thanks

Open an URL connection using java.net.URLConnection (and if necessary send the POST request), obtain the response as inputstream and process it.
There is an URLConnection tutorial available: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/networking/urls/readingWriting.html

Can't open Desktop app. "There was an error with this action. Try again later." How do I solve this?

I've been trying to open "Desktop App" for a couple of days now. I get the above error message. "Later" obviously isn't going to work. I've signed out of my account and signed back in, but that hasn't helped.
I can reach the App Mgr from PS, and I assume I could download a new program from the apps site. But the Desktop app should work, so I'd appreciate suggestions on how to solve this. Thanks.
Gail

Thanks for the prompt response. Up till a week or so ago, the app worked
fine, and I was able to do the latest updates. The chat option is always
there, but it's a nuisance, so I'm hoping someone will have another
suggestion.

Has anyone used Verizon Messages Desktop App

I'm curious, is there anyone out there that has used the Verizon Messages Desktop App? Were you able to use it successfully? Can you still?
You can download it here (The icon that says "Download Desktop App")
Verizon Messages - Verizon Wireless
I opened this thread which I'm pretty sure has just joined all of the other forgotten threads that never get answers.
VERIZON MESSAGES PC App

I have downloaded the Message+ application for 64 Bit Windows 7. It's a wonderful idea and I think it's just great. Unfortunately, its performance is inconsistent, the interface is not intuitive, certain features are difficult to use, certain obvious features are missing and there is no integrated help facility. I have elaborated on some of them, below. Be aware that I have not had this program for very long, so there may be answers and explanations that I am not aware of. And I might simply be wrong.
Performance is inconsistent:
Messages which appear on your phone will either immediately appear on your Message+ window (which is wonderful) or they will never appear, ever. Even waiting for hours doesn't get them. Exiting and running the application won't get them--they simply don't show up.
The program sometimes hangs for no readily apparent reason, thus hanging every single window associated with it. Once this happens, this is a solid hang. The program will simply not process any more windows messages at all. Since it will not handle a WM_CLOSE, you can not kill it from the task bar, you'll just get a beep. You must use the Windows Task Manager to do it. Once you have killed it, it will steadily hang more frequently.
Message+ can get into such a state that it will no longer start, no matter what you do. You can look at your processes, see that it is not there, but trying to run it give you a brief blink and nothing happens. A full reboot may fix this, but I do not know because I have not performed one. I think that is just too drastic and I simply have too much other stuff going on.
Once performance starts to degrade, it does so rapidly. Message+ will simply stop receiving ALL SMS messages with no indication why. There is no obvious way to reset this.
Attempting to fix the application by choosing Repair from the installation program (which is not documented anywhere) produces mixed results. The repair process takes an extremely long time and the progress bar barely moves making one think that the repair has hung. It is an exercise for the truly patient (or desperate). This will fix the program enough so that it will start again, but performance will be poor and hangs will become more frequent.
A repair inconsistently leaves messages around. One contact may still have messages while another has them all deleted. There is no readily apparent reason for this behavior.
Once you stop receiving messages, you do so forever. Even a repair doesn't fix the problem.
Close buttons [X] do not consistently work. Sometimes you got to click them a few times.
The interface is not intuitive:
On just about any GUI that you've ever heard of, available buttons or hot spots are highlighted in some way. The Message+ application does not follow this paradigm; the entire interface is flat and there is no indication of what you can click on unless you directly click on it.
It is not clear what a button does until you click on it. Some of the symbols are not obvious nor are they documented in any readily access place.
Icons can bring up windows which are either docked to the main window or separate with no readily apparent design.
Windows are launched with either a double or single click, which is startling and inconsistent. There is no readily apparent reason for this behavior.
You can do different things based on whether you are in edit mode or not, but it is not described anywhere how to do this and it is not obvious how to get out of it while you are in it. You've got to hunt around and experiment.
It is confusing to figure out what phone number to synchronize with. I installed the program only three days ago and now I have completely forgotten how to do this.
Certain features are difficult to use:
Trying to get at the text of a message is tortuous. You've got find very tiny dim icons which may or may not be there. Sometimes you'll manage to get a pop up with a right click, but all the options will be greyed out. There is no way to figure this out except by (laboriously) clicking on every part of every window at each stop to see what you can do.
You can only select a single message text at a time for certain things. If you want to get an entire thread, there is no way to do this. You can select multiple messages in edit mode, but the only available action is to delete all of them.
You can get per message info, which is great, but you have to do it on ever single message.
The scroll bar performance is poor. It is very difficult to determine where you are in a window, scrolling control is jerky, trying to move up a little bit at a time does not work.
Trying to find the program on the Verizon website to download it is not directly obvious. You can Google the web for messages, some of which have hard URL's that you can click on to get to the right place.
Certain obvious features are missing:
SMS messages contain valuable information and there is no way to save a message stream to file. This is lack of functionality is positively astounding. You've got to scroll through the message and take screen shots.
The arrow buttons do not consistently scroll window contents. They typically work, however.
Messages which are sent to a Jetpack (they have phone numbers) are not caught, which is puzzling.
You can not display message contents and information at the same time. This makes it doubly tedious to record information.
There is no undelete, roll back, restore or recover feature. Once you delete a message it's gone. Forever. Even undelete programs do not work because the delete is not apparently file based. You can hunt through the block list, but this can get tedious.
There is no way to back up or restore the entire database. Some of this material is critical.
There is no export function. You can not export to a .PDF to e-mail to somebody. You can not export to a .CSV for offline analysis.
Help:
There is no integrated help facility.. You can not pull up a window of descriptions of basic tasks.
There does not appear to be an online FAQ located in any obvious place.
It is difficult to Google for help online, you must always put Message+ in double quotes, "Message+" or you will get unexpected results.
There does not appear to be any large experienced user community on the Web yet. This support site is probably your only realistic chance of getting some useful information. Otherwise, there are many, many questions out there.
The Send Feedback Function does not work if you do not have an installed mail client on your desktop. If you are using a web based one, gmail for example, a browser window will start with the entire message stuffed into the URL bar. You've got to cut the text out of the URL and paste it into separate fields in your message. You've better off just simply sending an e-mail to [email protected]. Thus far, however, I have yet to receive a single response. Sometimes hitting the Submit button performs no function at all. The window simply stays up and nothing happens.
In summary, I think it's a great idea, but I simply don't think the User Interface engineering is all that thought out. The look and feel of an application of an application are absolutely critical to successfully exploiting the functionality. You should only deviate from (decades old) graphical interface paradigms when you really have something different to do. Message+ is performing basic functions, it doesn't need window glitz. Glitz for glitz's sake is just plain annoying and causes a needless learning curve. Further, Message+'s glitz is uninspiring and in some cases, downright confusing.
The flawed functionality, the stability, the data lose, the lack of obvious features and the near complete lack of documentation make me think that this is essentially an unfinished or alpha stage product and one would hope for improvements as new version roll out (if they ever do).
If anyone knows of any alternatives to Message+ that do what it does, I'd love to hear about it. However, I am only interested in capturing SMS messages, not sending any sort of e-mail or data.

Is it true that java is an absolute failure in desktop apps?

Hi Everyone.
I'm a new java disciple.
However I have a question about java and desktop applications.
is it true that java is an absolute failure in desktop apps?
I read on this article on salon. Here are the key points in regards to efforts at building netscape, corel and office version of java.
http://www.salon.com/tech/col/garf/2001/01/08/bad_java/index.html
Remember back in October 1996 when Corel announced that it was creating Corel Office for Java? Corel promised us a complete rewrite of WordPerfect and other office applications, which would have supposedly allowed these new Java-based applications to run on any Java-compliant machine.
Office for Java was a failure. While the product is still in the Sun Java Solutions catalog and you can download the beta from a few archive sites on the Internet, the project was abandoned in August 1997. Download it for yourself and you'll find out why: It's buggy and sluggish. On my 700 MHz Pentium III, Office for Java brought memories of my old Macintosh Duo's ill-fated attempts to run the heavily bloated Microsoft Word 6. The program's speed, alas, was dreadful.
Netscape had similar problems when it attempted to rewrite large parts of Netscape Navigator into Java. Indeed, the damning article What Netscape Learned from Cross-Platform Software Development," explains how Netscape's engineers were sold on the language and started writing large chunks of Navigator into Java. Netscape was committed to delivering Navigator on nearly a dozen different platforms, so Java seemed like the perfect solution. But Netscape's engineers couldn't make the language perform as Sun had advertised: Java was simply too slow. Netscape's engineers tried writing their own Java implementation, thinking that they could build a version that was faster than Sun's, but even that didn't work. "By mid-1998, Netscape was not only deemphasizing Java, it was even planning to replace existing implementations with C and C++." In other words, Netscape was taking the new code that had been written in Java and was rewriting it in C and C++.
What may i ask do you java gurus have to say about to this to a new java disciple
Stephen

First & foremost, consider the source here. Anything the comes from salon.com gets red-flagged in my opinion.
I would disagree that Java is an "absolute failure" in the desktop app market. What you have to understand is that Java is just a tool, and just like anything else, you have to use the right tool for the job. What are you interesting in using it for? What, specifically do you mean by desktop apps?
Garfunkel's Corel Office example is somewhat flawed. (1) In 1997 Java as at version 1.0; Java has come a long way since then. (2) Do you think that any office suite has a realistic chance of being competative against MS Office? I don't, and I think that says more about the failure of Corel Office than the fact that is was implemented in Java.
IMHO, Java is a great tool for developing cross-platform applications with a GUI. Swing is pretty robust, easily extended and has a pretty extensive widget set. It is a little bloated, but that is the price to pay for it's other (good) qualities.
As far as performance goes, remember that a GUI need only seem fast. If you can kick off a long-running task in another thread and then immediately return control of the GUI to the user, your program will be more responsive and seem to perform faster.
My advice to you is to really evaluate why you're thinking about using Java. Java is a great tool, but it might not be the best tool for the task you have in mind.

Download error in (osx) adobe desktop app (corrupted download link).

Here is a discription of the problem. Please consider that some of the wording might not be correct, as I do have to translate the error message from German into English.
Using OSX 10.9.2, when clicking inside the adobe desktop app (top of the screen bar) on the tap "apps", the following screen (screenshot) appears, which states, translated from top to bottom:
download error
download error. Please contact support.
(link) contact support
(link/button) download creative cloud -> This button unfortunatly leads to the following error page "http://www.adobe.com/special/errorpages/404.html"
All apps, like Bridge, Photoshop, Lightroom, etc. are installed and work just fine. So no problem here. I seem however unable to redownload the desktop app (in order to reinstall). As stated above the provided link inside the desktop app itself is coruppted and within the (online) web-based download centre (user logged in) I am only adviced to use the desktop app. This is a dead end and I do not know what to make of this error, let alone solving it. Please help!

I am sorry Romsinha but this doesn't really help.
I already restarted the desktop app and while I am obviously online and connected the problem (error message) remains the same. Information within the "home" tap is recieved/loaded (little blue spinning wheel) stating that various apps recently have been updated. Yet the same loading wheel within the "apps" tap results in an error. My best guess is that some internal link within the app is corrupted, leading to a source on a server that can not be reached.
UPDATE
I clean uninstalled adobe creative cloud as discribed in the article you provided (using the cleaner tool) and even uninstalled the browser plugin. After downloading and reinstalling creative cloud the problem however remains the same. "Apps" tap still shows the same problem. "Home" tap now displays the following:

Looking for a simple, standalone desktop app for web stats

Well, I see they've changed the forums here again. SIGH.
Anyway, a certain web host has eliminated AWStats from it's shared hosting. So I used Webmaster Tools. And now they've changed, and no longer display the simple visitors and hits. Google Analytics is way too complex for what I need, as are many of the stats programs I've looked into.
I can download the daily Apache log files, that's no problem. Just looking for a small standalone program to import these and show the data like AWStats. Any suggestions? The only other options would be to go to a different web host. Not a big deal overall, but I would rather not deal with the hassle, especially the migrating the database.

Not sure of standalone 'desktop' apps. But check out http://www.openwebanalytics.com/ and Web Analytics in Real Time | Clicky - they're both very intuitive and easy to use with a lot more simplified stats than Google Analytics.

Desktop app re-downloads installers without retrying on any failure

[Bug report/feature request]
The Creative Cloud desktop app on PC has a bad habit of downloading installers from scratch, without retrying an installation, when anything fails -- even if it's a minor connection problem after the installer has finished downloading.
This is wasting my monthly download quota with my ISP!
Here's an example of what's happened most recently:
Tell Creative Cloud desktop app to download the new version of Photoshop
Photoshop downloads (progress goes past 50%, at which point the desktop app will have downloaded the installer and initialised it)
Installer initialises
Desktop app reports a connection error to the adobe servers
Desktop app starts downloading the installer from scratch, with no option to relaunch the installer
What should happen:
Installer downloads
Any failure launching the installer? Ask if the user would like to try the installation again or download from scratch

I tried to report the same Feature Request for the Creative Cloud desktop app (in Windows) but this applicaiton does nto exist in the drop-down menu.
It is very frustrating for files (many that are greater than 1GB) to have to be re-downloaded when the internet connection fails, even momentarily. I'm a brand new Creative Cloud subscriber and this is not making me a happy customer.
The Creative Cloud desktop app needs to be able to handle interruptions in connection.
