Creative Cloud Desktop only works in root account

Mac 10.10.3
Can't open ACC desktop. nothing happened on the screen after clicking the icon. only an ACC logo (in grey) showed up in the status bar at the top but it disappeared quickly. Have tried:
1. Creative Cloud Cleaner
2. Safe Mode
3. clean OOBE, AAMUpdater folders
4. log in with another administrated user
Installed and opened successfully in root account, but still not working in my account (which is a administrator).
Please help me solve the problem. Thanks!

Ji Yunlu,
There seems to be a problem with permissions.
Kindly make sure that you have Read and Write permission on the folder mentioned below.
/Library/Application Support/Adobe
~/Library/Application Support/Adobe
/Application/utilities/Adobe Creative Cloud
/Application/utilities/Adobe Application Manager
Please share the results once done.
Thanks,

  • Why won't the Creative Cloud Desktop App Work??

    I have been trying for 2 weeks to get Creative Cloud to update to the CC versions from CS6 versions.  I've tried all the different methods I've found on the Forums.  Deleted the OOBE directory, tried to download directly from the Download page.  Nothing works!  the CCDesktop app is just a blank page - i've deleted and reinstalled the app at least 15 times - still a blank window for the CC Desktop app.  Does anyone have a workable solution?  I am running a 2011 iMac 27' 3.1 GHZ i5 core with OS 10.9.1
    Jim

    I'm having the same really frustrating issue. Did the link below help you at all? It did nothing for me. This problem with the creative cloud desktop being blank happened as soon as I installed the latest update for it. Ever since then, it's been blank, and thus, worthless to me.

  • Why is my Creative Cloud desktop not working?

    I have just bought CC and I went in to download Photoshop and then it says about the desktop application in which everytime I try download it, this message pops up:
    Which gives me no indication on the error, and I honestly have no idea what to do about it!

    Hi Daniellewalka24,
    Please rename OOBE Folder from the following location
    location in Window C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe
    After renaming the OOBE folder please uninstall Adobe creative cloud from the cleaner tool and re-installed the product from from www.creative.adobe.com/apps
    PS: Please uninstall Creative cloud connection if you see in Cleaner tool.http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
    As the above discusson also mentions renamimg, Please disable the firewall of the system & network & then retry.
    You can also refer this link for more input: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-cc-installation- download.html
    Incase the error still persists, then the next best step would be to review your installation logs to determine the exact point of failure.
    Please see Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5 -cs5.html for information on how to locate and interpret the

  • Re: New Creative Cloud Desktop not working

    I have an older Mac (Late 2008 MacBook Pro, 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3, Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63)) and this spinning wheel problem persisted even with the recommended solution (those posted here: "Unknown Server Error" when you attempt to log in to Adobe Creative Cloud)). I already have several CS6 products installed.
    I tried deleting all Adobe CC files on my computer (including uninstalling CC, deleting all CC files and folders), deleting the OOBE opm.db file, restarting, and re-downloading. Did NOT solve the problem.
    Additionally, I had to delete Adobe Application Manager because upon restart it was maxing out my CPU and requiring me to force quit it, even after I uninstalled CC.

    Branching this to a separate discussion.
    Mclcm please see App doesn’t open | Progress wheel spins continually which discusses how to resolve your current error.

  • Creative Cloud Desktop frozen/spinning wheel after updated version April 22,2015; Adobe Application Manager won't sign in either - Mac OSX Yosemite 10.10.3

    I cannot update any apps via Creative Cloud Desktop Application just prior to nor after the April 2015 updated.
    I've tried everything listed in support forums, including:
    uninstallation
    removal of the AAMUpdater and OOBE folders in both the user and system libraries
    use of the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool
    enabling the root user and cleaning everything out there and reinstallation from the root account
    and reinstallation of both the Application Manager as well as Creative Cloud Desktop...multiple times.
    I've also tried out the instructions to uninstall Java and reinstall the latest version of Java.  I have looked through every iteration of these issues on several support forums, and tried everything that has supposedly "worked" to get Creative Cloud Desktop back up and running.
    I am on Mac OSX Yosemite 10.10.3.
    I also can't sign in via the Application Manager, with message that I am not connected to the internet.  I can launch the versions of Photoshop CC 2014, Illustrator CC 2014, Lightroom 5, etc., but when I try to sign in to any of those applications, the Adobe Application Manager launches, asking for a sign in, and then won't connect...no matter what.  I have tried doing this from the root account with the firewall temporarily disabled as well.  I do not have internet connection problems whatsoever, and all other applications, browsers, etc., can reach all aspects of the internet just fine.
    The most peculiar thing: I have another Creative Cloud installation on my MacBook Pro with the same version of Yosemite, and everything is loading and working just fine, with all the latest updates.  Duplicate installation for my laptop, and yet my iMac with the same installation won't work at all.

    Thanks for the suggestion.
    I've attempted to repair permissions the usual way, as well as through a complete cleanup via Onyx.  Still no dice.
    Creative Cloud Desktop was working previously, for quite a few months (with the occasional "can't connect" and inability to load the App Update panel, which seems to plague the software constantly anyway...but at least it worked intermittently) well after I installed Yosemite.
    This is a more recent issue...just a few days ago...before installing the update, as well as after.

  • Creative Cloud desktop app totally empty - not even Preferences...?

    I have from before Production Premium CS6 and Lightroom 4 installed on my computer (Windows 7 64-bit, 16GB RAM).
    I joined then CC Photography Package and after login to my account I went to the DL section to download one of the programs and install it. The Creative cloud desktop app is installed, but it is empty. Not only is there neither a Photoshop CC nor a Lightroom 5 there, there's no menu and if I try to determine the app version as in http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/creative-cloud-desktop-missing-text.html - there's not even a Preferences to select...
    I get no error message, and going to the Download center and trying to download Photosgop or Lightroom just gets me a blink of "waiting for creative.adobe.com..." and then focus is changed to the empty Creative Cloud desktop app.
    Checking my account I can see that both my product licences for CS6/LR4 are there, as is my CC Photography package.
    I can add that I have restarted the system, reinstalled the Creative Cloud app and tried other things I can think of. But I still only get an empty Creative Cloud app, without a possibility to login to my Adobe account.

  • Creative Cloud will only open once, then it needs to be re-installed + only get white screen + no adobe programs work

    So the title is pretty clear. And I've done a ton of research and tried everything. It used to all work fine too. It started with none of my adobe programs being able to work. The little thumbnail icon would break and I would get an error if I tried to open any of them. This only happened with adobe software, and they would typically work for a while before breaking. Then the creative cloud app stopped working too. Anytime I get it open it's blank, and if I close it, the program won't launch anymore. I need to reinstall it.
    I removed all adobe everything off my computer, and used ccleaner to get rid of any excess, then reinstalled the creative cloud app, still doesn't work.
    My email had an underscore in it, but I changed that. No weird characters anywhere in my profile. I've also tried every variation of dealing with the OOBE folder stuff.
    I don't know what to do... please help

  • Creative Cloud Desktop refuses to work properly...

    OK, so I decided to try this CC thing.  Ordered the subscription; went to the website to try and download an app....  It instead changed my app download to CC Destop install.pp installs, and bounces up a sign-in window on completion.  I sign in....  Bang, it crashes...
    On chat for a really long time with support...  moving folders to desktop, renaming files, renaming folders, killing processes in Task Manager, using the Creative Cleaner.... yadda, yadda.
    No work...  On reinstall, same failure, same message... although I did make it to the License Screen this time after signing in before it crashed with the "Windows... problem... Close Program" error.
    Chat support guy says he thinks I should create a NEW Windows user and reinstall.... gives me a case number and bails offline out of the chat sess
    So... OK...  I guess I have to do this by myself?  So...
    I do as he says... create new user, reinstall... SAME results... EXACTLY....
    So... I get pissed and serious.  I scrub the computer of any/every reference of ANY Adobe product whatsoever using the Creative Cleaner and various other IT Tools I own (I do this for a living folks).
    NOW....  I have a scrubbed clean disk, registry, et al... no reference of Adobe whatsoever to be found.  I install the Creative Cloud Desktop...
    When it pops up, I try to fool it by NOT signing in immediately....  I cold reboot the computer to make SURE the install is complete, et al.
    On reboot, I open CC (it's already open in the Task Bar at lower right).  I sign in... yea, no crash.  I agree to the license...  Awesome, no crash.
    I ACTUALLY see the screen where I can tell it that I want to download an app....  for a second...
    CRASH!!!  SAME crash messages...
    I would LIKE to get this resolved...
    Please help!

    OK...  so I just spent an hour+ on chat with Mohammed, and we made some progress.
    Good news is that we got the CC Desktop App working and I am downloading Acrobat XI.
    Bad news is that to get it to work, I have to uninstall my Intel HD Graphics 4600 display controller AND delete the drivers at the same time, which does at least 3 things:
    Makes the Intel COntroller revert to using VGA plain Jane driver...
    It makes it impossible for me to access my AMD Radeon 8790M graphics controller for app switching to high performance graphics.
    It also apparently disables my High Definition Audio Device....  <apparently, the Intel Graphics and the High Def Audio are tied together somehow>
    Now... here is some background.  WITH the Intel driver package installed for the HD 4600, CC Desktop fails and the Event Viewer shows the following error information:
    It appears that CC Desktop wants to use C:\Windows\system32\igdumdim32.dll, but the problem is that this .DLL file does not exist at this location, and it is NOT bound to the Intel Display Controller.
    System 32 has the 64-bit version of that DLL, "igdumdim64.dll".  The called DLL does exist in the SysWOW64 directory.
    I am not smart enough to know how all this works exactly, but it is obvious that this is a "don't play well together" between the CC Desktop application and the Intel driver package.
    None of my other x86 applications are having ANY issue with the display drivers... only CC Desktop.
    It is NOT acceptable to have to use the basic VGA driver to make this work, and sacrifice the use of my Radeon and grap[hics performance on all of my other apps just to use this Creative Cloud subscription.
    IF this can't be fixed promptly, I will have to cancel my subscription....

  • How can I get the Creative Cloud Desktop app To work on Windows Vista?

    Currently My CC Desktop app is a greyed out icon.
    It has been on and off for months now.
    I have called technical support several times and been directed to
    1) Uninstall it
    2) Run the cleaner
    3) Turn AV Software off
    4) Delet my prefrences
    5) Delet Hosts file in Windows 32 folder
    6) Restart, Restart,
    7) Use a diffent User account. etc.
    The apps work= PS, INDD, AE, PROJ, AI, DW, Fla, etc.
    But the Creative Cloud Destop app does not. I have to use the web browser to upload or sync any files.
    Anyone have any other ideas I welcome them.
    My specs,
    Running windows vista, on a very good HP machine.
    I have been a loyal Adobe Customer, For more than 15 years.
    I have been an Adobe Certified Expert for 3 years or more.
    I work professionaly with this software as a teacher. I have taught this software to college grads. and now to highschool students.
    Ususally Adobe is one of the best companies to deal? Please stop farming your support calls to other countries, The connections are poor, and the support is terrible and it is damaging your reputation.

    Hi D2xS-Shooter,
    I am afraid Creative Cloud desktop app is not compatible with Windows Vista. If you run into problems there are very limited resources from Adobe to assist.
    Creative Cloud is a collection of apps with various different tech specs

    Register Applications photoshop CC   Lightroom 300 baht per month Creative Cloud desktop install and load the program into Lightroom down normally open normally, but the work load photoshop program installed. Open access Like we use it to fill a 30-day trial version, serial no.

    1) WHAT if I juse JUST ONE Adobe program pretty often? 
    They have a single use subscription for $20/mo.  Similar to upgrading extended version every 1.5 years.
    2)  WHAT if I created projects like 2 months ago and I didn't use Photoshop for a full month.  Who assures us that with the CC series the projects are opened with the old CS ones?Or don't use it every day?
    Same problem if you own it.  If upgrade price is $400 every 1.5 year that is same as $16/month.  You can choose not to update and version will be same as when you last used it.
    3) WHAT if I don't use Adobe 24/7?  and 5) Making an day-based subscription??  Same problem if you own it.  If upgrade price is $400 every 1.5 year that is same as $16/month.
    4) Adobe, do you think to be the only one making these softwares?
    Competition is always a factor in market.
    6) After all this mess, you discriminate Europeans, too?
    Taxes charged by Governments and municipalities are not controlled by Adobe.

It's in a deadlock.The only thing I think I can do is to restore the PC to before the installation and try again. THis is a ball ache because there  are lots of other programs i need to reinstate to get back to normal.

    Adobe Creative Cloud (Desktop) does not work properly. The application is blocked : it could not be launch neither stopped. I'm on MAC Yosemite OS, does anyone know how to remove it properly or to force its stop. It does not appear in the launched applications.

    I received no error message. The application was just trying to find applications unsuccessfully.
    I am using MAC OS 10.10.1
    I tried to uninstall the application  but it seems that a kind of deamon is still installed thus providing me to reinstall properly. Do you know where are the elements to remove in order to get my machine just like before ?
    Otherwise I would have to reinstall everything and this would be a pain.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop App Doesn't Work Windows 8.1

    The Creative Cloud Desktop App doesn't work on my PC running Windows 8.1. As shown below, no apps appear and the settings dropdown does not function with either left or right click. I have tried to uninstall, reinstall, change the name of the OOBE folder, connect directly to my cable modem by passing my router, removing all internet & firewall protection and I am unable to download any CC apps that I do not have on my PC. I have been updating existing apps from the help menus in the apps and have not used the CC app for downloads for a long time so I do not know when the problem started, but it does not work now. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Automatic updates are also not working.
    Thanks,
    Barry

    Turning off "Enable Protected Mode" in the Security Tab of Internet Properties allowed the Creative Cloud Desktop App to function properly. I am still looking for a better long term solution that does not put my computer's security at risk.
