Creative Cloud Desktop not showing updates available.

Several students in my design class are running into problems where their Creative Cloud Desktop is not showing that there are updates to their applications. I was discussing some new features released for CC 2014 last week at Adobe Max, and would require them to be running the 2014.2.x.x (or .1) versions of several applications. I verified that each student, for example, is still running Photoshop 2014.0.x. and I have .2.0.
On one students machine I had them uninstall and reinstall the Creative Cloud Desktop application – the new installer was downloaded from Adobe, so it should be the latest update.
Lastly, I had them remove the .db file from the OOBE folder in their Users director, to see if it would force a refresh – no effect.
I can't verify that this is consistent across all machines, but I think nearly all of them had started by installing the trial of CC2014 - and then subscribed (on my recommendation) in order to have the appropriate software for the course. I'd hate for them to all have to uninstall and reinstall from scratch...
Thoughts?

Hi,
Try this :
_Close CC desktop .
_ delete "AAMUpdaterInventory " et "AAMUpdater" (if present ) in :
MAC :
/Users/[User Name]/Library/Applicaiton Support /Adobe
MAC HD//Bibliotheque/Application Support /Adobe
WIn :
C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Local\Adobe
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe
Launch CC desktop .
Try also to search for updates from applications help menu.
Good luck .

Creative cloud desktop not showing apps panel?

So, I'm running windows 8.1, and i want to trial photoshop, and possibly flash, because I've just got a wacom intuos pro and if i like the software I will subscribe.
My problem lies in there being no apps panel/tab in the desktop app, and the button that says "install adobe apps" does nothing.
Anyone know how to fix this?

Hi,
Please refer to threads below where this issue has been addressed:

Creative cloud desktop app show APPD download error

Creative Cloud desktop app show APPS 'download error' - gives the option to reload applications or contact customer service
Reload doesn't work
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app - same error
Trouble began after I attempted to download a Bridge update which wouldn't complete

Spent 2.5 hours on support chat and screen sharing with adobe support today, and after many uninstalls, CC clean ups etc, they could not get it working.
Like you, it has always worked until today.
The only thing we could get to work was to login to os x as root user and run Creative cloud from there.
It's a PITA, but I am used to it because my desktop CC installer has been broken since last year, so I now have two computers with broken CC installers.
OS X Mavericks: Enable and disable the root user
good luck

Creative Cloud desktop failed to update.(Error code: 1)

Hello, I'm running a MacBook Pro Retina with Yosemite 10.10.2. I tried to update Creative Cloud Desktop manager and then tried to cancel it (it was killing my bandwidth while I was trying to work). It disappeared from the bar at the top of the OSx screen.
I couldn't get it back. I restarted my machine. When I clicked on Creative Cloud this time, I was prompted to update, but almost immediately got an error. There are other mentions of Error Code 1 on the forum, but they appear to be first time installations, not updates. Suggestions welcome! Thanks
Creative Cloud desktop failed to update.(Error code: 1)
Update:
Still no success. I tried the instructions here: Error "Failed to Install" Creative Cloud Desktop application which says to uninstall Creative Cloud. I got an error: "Unable to uninstall Creative Cloud Desktop. Quit Creative Cloud desktop and try again." But CC desktop is not running. I had a look in activity monitor and didn't see anything.

Okay - I think I resolved this by closing some stalled processes in Activity Monitor, then restarting Creative Cloud desktop, then updating in the normal way.

The 'Apps' tab in my Creative Cloud Desktop app shows a Download Error

I have tried uninstalling, downloading, and reinstalling Creative Cloud Desktop and continue to get the Download Error prompt. It either shows the Download Error prompt or it continues to just think and think and think. All the other tabs work normally. I've also signed out and signed in of my CC account multiple times . . . with the same outcome.
All of this started after I had updated all the available updates . . . I was also looking to install Lightroom CC.

You may try providing full permissions to Adobe folders under ~/library/Application Support and /library/Application Support.
Then launch Creative Cloud app and try loading Apps list

Try below steps :
1)
Launch Activity Monitor and "Force Quit" all the process related to Adobe like Creative Cloud, CoreSync, AAMupdater, AAMupdater notifier, Adobe Crash demon from Activity monitor.
2)
Click on the Finder and look for the options listed next to Apple Icon located at the top left corner of the Desktop screen and click on "Go" menu button and select "Utilities" option.
(Applications>Utiliites)
Locate Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Application Manager folder under Utilities window and trash both folders.
3)
Trash Adobe Creative Cloud from Applications well.
4)
1) Right click on Finder icon and select "Go-ToFolder " option.
2) You will get a text box, type-in below command and then hit 'Return' key.( Do not miss ~ symbol)
~/library
3)Then navigate to Application Support>Adobe.
Open Adobe folder and trash folders named AAMUpdater and OOBE.
5)
1) Right click on Finder icon and select "Go-To" Folder option.

Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop is showing a blank screen at every launch (have tried multiple CleanerTool and OOBE-related methods)

**Background:** My computer, installed with Windows 7 is 2 weeks old. Yesterday I installed Creative Cloud Desktop, Premiere Pro and After Effects on my computer and everything went *absolutely* smoothly, not a bump. I did about ten hours work using these programs. Later that night, when I was about to go to sleep I went to my room and pressed the power button on my PC thinking I had left it on (just my memory, it had no lights on or anything) but it started turning itself on. Being tired, I immediately pressed the button again (I'm fairly sure the interval wasn't long enough for it to start updating).
This morning, I turn it on and Startup Repair appears, which recommends that I System Restore. So I do. It starts up fine this time, but said programs are gone and briefly I freak out about having lost all my work but the kind people in the reddit techsupport IRC chat here reminded stupid me of what I had forgotten, files stay in a System Restore.
**Problem:** So, I go to reinstall Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop. First of all, it fails to initialises (I had to go into Safe Mode to find out exactly what the problem was) but I used the Cleaner Tool and it completed the install eventually. But, when I start up the program, it briefly shows the loading symbol before going to a *completely* white screen, nothing on it at all. I have since used the Cleaner Tool again after the program being quite adamant about not being uninstalled, restarted and reinstalled and still, same problem. Then I searched through https://forums.adobe.com/message/5553596#5553596 and performed every solution in there, including changing the name of the opm file, changing the name of the OOBE folder and deleting the OOBE folder (all while the Creative Cloud app is not running including all processes killed). I uninstalled using the Cleaner Tool and reinstalled in-between all of these attempted solutions.
This has basically eaten up my workday so far.

I took another look at the creative cloud cleaner instructions and realized I wasnt running it correctly. I read the instructions too quickly. I got it up and running. I had forgotten to run as administrator.

Problem with Creative Cloud Desktop app since update to Windows 8.1

Hi, I have updated my desktop and laptop to Windows 8.1 over the past day, and have noticed a problem with the Creative Cloud Desktop app.
Some menu items when I right-click on either the CC system tray icon, or click on the Settings menu icon in the app interface itself do not show. I've included a screenshot of the problem.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the desktop app, but this has not worked. Any ideas?

Why does Creative Cloud Desktop block when updating fails?

Actually, this is a feature request: Don't block Creative Cloud Desktop's other functions (App Download/Install, File Synchronization) just because there is an update.
5 out 10 times updating fails at our facility, forcing us to reinstall the Creative Cloud App from a fresh download.
All this time files are not synched, apps are not updated. This applies to both Mac and Windows versions.
This is the tinyiest app of the Suite and it produces the most frustrations here – while the bigger applications (with installations in the GBs) run smoothly.

That's what I get on a regular basis: Creative Cloud Desktop could not be updated.(Error code: 2) Contact support I will then download the latest Creative Cloud Desktop full install and install it manually. For every machine. Every now and then.
But more important: You now have several Cloud File Sync services on your desktop (Dropbox, Onedrive, Google Drive etc.) and they manage to update themselves automagically – or not. They won't stop functioning, only because they could not get a specific mini-bugfix.
