Check for updates fails - no error code

I had Adobe Reader 9.2 on my desktop running Vista Home Premium SP2.  When I opened Reader and went to "help," and then selected "check for updates," the pop-up window that normally comes up and shows the progress of the update search would appear, but only for a few seconds, after which I would get an updater window that just says, "Update Failed."  There is no error code, and no other message.
I was able to successfully download and install Reader 9.3.0 manually from the Adobe website, but the updater is behaving exactly the same way in 9.3.  Again, I could manually download and install the patches for 9.3 (9.3.1, 9.3.2), but if I try to "check for updates" from within the program the updater runs for a couple of seconds and then fails.
Help?

  • P2 "Check for update failed unexpectedly"

    Hi
    I am implementing p2 update for my application (followed tutorial on https://blog.codecentric.de/en/2015/04/add-p2-update-functionality-to-an-efxclipse-application-eclipse-rcp-cookbook/)
    Application finds update (tells that there are updates for my product) but gives an error
    "Check for update failed unexpectedly". Thats all. Nothing more. How can I debug? I can not test under Eclipse. What should I do?
    Ubuntu 14.10, JDK 1.8-45, Mars Efxclipse 2.0.0
    By the way thank you very much Tom, for all answers you give. I really appreciate your help.

    There should be some more information, as the causing exception is included in the wrapping StatusException.
    To debug have a look at UpdateServiceImpl#checkUpdate() where the exception is raised.
    You could for example register a listener onException() to your UpdateService#checkUpdate() to get more information about the raised StatusException.

    Hi
    A little information will be of a great help, witch iPhone did you upgrade, memory , and version of software ( iOS 8.x.x )?
    Try restarting you iPhone and make sure you have a god internet connection , get as close to your wifi router (1-3 meter / 2-9 feet ) as possible. Don't use restore to factory  settings before you tried other options .  And most imported du you have an iCloud backup.

    My Iphone 4 crashed yesterday after a restart and upload of OS 5.0, it will only partially sync.  It's not transferring any of my music or ringtones.  They still appear when I click open the sync screens on ITunes, but I don't seem to have an Ipod function and only one of my personalized ringtones transfers on the actual phone.

    Make sure your network setting are correct and your network connection is active or try again latter.

  • Today's update failed with error code U44M1P7

    I received Adobe Application Updates today which said they are  Adobe CSXS Infrastructure 4 updates and on installing them I received the following message:
    Adobe CSXS Infrastructure 4
    Installation failed. Error Code: U44M1P7
    How to I fix this?

    Might be another problem. Now when I open CC to check for updates, it shows as my only installed Apops are Extension Manager CC and InDesign CC when in fact I ahve many other CC apps installed (Photoshop, Illustrator, Acrobat, etc.) -- they all open and seem to work okay; why aren't they listed in CC? Now I'm concerned that I won't get updates for them through CC.
    Any thoughts?
    I found this: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/apps-panel-reflect-creative-cloud.html and tried it, but the CC desktop apps panel still only shows Extension Manager and InDesign as installed.

  • CC app manager update  failed with error code 50 after reaching about 35%

    Trying to update the CC app manager. The update is always very slow  (I have ATT DSL, lowest level) and I usually terminate it after an hour or so. Today I let it run and it failed with error code 50 after reaching about 35%. Any ideas?

    Update to my original post. I read through some of the suggestions that I found in other threads for fixing this problem, and it appears that this has been an ongoing issue. Numerous fixes have been suggested, some very convoluted, difficult, and involved, including those that came from the customer support folks.  I passed on those as this should be something simple. How Adobe manages to let updating of their own software turn into an ongoing problem is beyond me and sort of defeats the purpose of subscribing. I then noticed that a simple fix had been suggested a few times, so I tried that.
    The user suggested fix that worked for me was:
    1) Restarted computer (Asus Windows 7 i3 machine for me) in Safe Mode with Networking. Logged into my separate Admin account just in case.
    2) Started the creative cloud desktop app.
    3) The app said it needed to be updated. I hit the update button.
    4) Update started and proceeded slowly as it had in many previous failed attempts (I have ATT DSL at the slowest level, but it is not dial-up). Within about 30 min, the update succeeded.
    5) Restarted computer in normal mode.
    6) The creative cloud desktop app now did not say it needs to be updated, and I can update my other apps normally. Have not updated LR or PS yet, but plan to try. If that fails, I may try doing it in the Safe Mode with Networking.
    So, that was relatively painless and much much simpler than many of the other suggestions I saw. Do not know if it will work for everyone, but I wanted to post the fix that worked for me. Thank you very much to the 2 or 3 users who had suggested this fix earlier (sorry, I did not write down your IDs, but the threads can be found by searching for creative cloud desktop update fail error code 50). Hope this saves some people a lot of time.

  • Attempting to install creative cloud update. fails with error code 87. Where do I find an unfinished install?

    I have received the error code 87 when attempting to update Creative Cloud. I had previously received an update for Acrobat Pro (not the CC version), and the install failed. Now I cannot install any Adobe product. How do I resolve this issue? Rather important that there is not a long delay.

    If you are on windows computer, Open Task manager by pressing Ctrl + Shift + Esc keys
    Locate and end all Adobe related processes, like Creative Cloud, Core sync, AAM update notifier, Acrobat updater, AdobeArm, Acrotray, Adobe installer.
    Then try

    ... on XP Pro SP3. Download completes, and installation reaches 100% before the above error appears. No other Adobe products running at the time. Updated attempted twice with same result.
    Can anyone advise on what this rather meaningless error code is telling me and how to fix it?
    Thanks

    Hi Richard,
    did You rename the Digimarc folder (Plugins/digimarc).
    I did it to avoid to load this uneccessary plugin every time lauchning PS and that was the issue.
    If not, have a look at the install logfile to figuer out the fault.
