Creative Cloud does not start, the pin wheel on my mac just spins, spins, spins

I have a MacBook Pro with 370 gigs of HD available (of 500gig), 4 gigs of ram, and 2.7 ghz processor.
I installed Adobe Ai (creative cloud) and the install seemed to have worked just fine. However, in the
creative cloud window (when clicking the icon on the top bar), there's just little blue bars that go in circles
and never seem to stop. Sometimes, the window never appears but if I hit command-tab and I see it as
an option and select, the mac pinwheel just spins, and spins, and spins.
Has anyone run into this before?

Mine actually was the fact that I never really finished the install. I think you have to go through the install from within the Creative Cloud window located on the top of your screen (you'll see the Ai creative cloud icon). You should see a bunch of products with 'Try' or 'Install' and you find Ai and click install. It takes a while but it will install.

Creative Cloud Does Not Start - Help!

If anyone from Adobe is watching this. I was considering switching from Aperture to Lightroom CC. I was able to install the trial and it works fine. However, all of a sudden, Adobe Creative Cloud App will not run. The icon appears for a moment then disappears.
I have tried almost everything listed here - installing and uninstalling, Creative Cloud Cleaner, running as root, running in a new admin account and so on. All are no goes.
I really would like to be your customer, but since I can't get live support, and I am not going to sign up only to find the paid CC does not work either, I hope you are able to help me.

Still same ??

Message from Danny :
Success!
Hope this helps someone in the same situation. (This is for a Mac, OS 10.9.5)
This is what I did.
Started the computer in SAFE MODE, Creative Cloud Desktop (CCD) started.
Restarted under regular user mode. CCD did not start.
Removed all login items from System Preferences > Users & Groups (I think this step could be skipped and only tried if the following doesn't work.)
Go to Library folder. Rename LaunchAgents folder to LaunchAgents_old and Launch Daemons folder to Launch Daemons_old
Create new folders called LaunchAgents and Launch Daemons.
Move all items NOT containing the name Adobe from the "old" folders and put them in their respective new folders.
Go to ~/Library and do the same thing with LaunchAgents folder.
Restart the computer and see if CCD opens. Mine DID!!!
Using the uninstall Creative Cloud, uninstall. Then reinstall CCD. (This should put new items in the LaunchAgent folders.)
Restart the computer and see if CCD works. Mine Did and I seem to be good to go.

Adobe Creative Cloud does not support Bootcamp by Apple IOS operating system, but does work with boot camp Win 8.1 why"

Adobe Creative Cloud does not support APPLE latest IOS operating system, but does allow Windows 8.1 to be accepted. This seems a shame to me, as
Apple IOS is the leader in graphics, photography. The advertising states it is usable under both APPLE IOS and Microsoft 8.1 windows operating systems. Adobe Support Chat Sooraj tells me on 02/19/2015 that i must buy two computers to have it operate on both operating systems. Adobe will not support apple's Boot CAMP allowing both operating systems.
i love the apple product and love the ADOBE Photoshop CC, but it simply does now work with an apple keyboard and a WiN operating system. .[email protected] Adobe Creative Cloud

In Thehatters defence, this was initially posted in the MacbookPro forum and then moved to Boot Camp,

Creative cloud does not load

I recently installed Creative Cloud for downloading the test version of Premiere Pro. Everything was fine, it was installed without problems. But now, when I try to start Creative Cloud, the window is empty, you can just see the loading button but nothing happens. How can I solve this problem?
I´m using Mac OS X 10.9.3

Ok, I did...
But there ist a similar problem. The program doesn't even start, so i can not login as suggested in the solution menu.
"Remove the OPM.db file and relogin into the Creative Cloud desktop application using the Adobe ID tied to your subscription."
Is there anything more I could try?

Hi Ckxian,

If it does not resolve the issue then try to rename the OPM.DB file from the following location.
Win: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE
Note: Please make sure your login ID does not contain any special character in it.
Please let me know in case still having problem.

Creative Cloud does not let me sign in! I redownloaded it a bunch of times already

Right when I sign in, it says I've been signed out. I've tried quitting it and opening it again. I've tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it. No luck. HELP !

Compressor does not start the job after submit button clicked.

Hello All,
FCP 6.0/ Compressor 3.0.5
I am trying to export a section of a FCP timeline sequence (set with in and out) thorugh Compressor, into a couple of video formats (DVD and a custom H.264). After I set the destination and make surte that the source file is in place, I press "Submit" button and again "submit" from pop-up window and nothing happens. No usual window with the job processing appears, like it ussually does. I restarted programs and computer and no change. Compressor quitted unexpectedly few times within the same process of initiating export from FCP. I tried test export from a different FCP project and the compressing does not start either after pressing "submit".
I did not have this problem before. I would greatly appreiciate any suggestions.
Best to all,
Izabela

Dear ToddNashville,
Thank you so much! This was it! It was processing but did not see the process as the "ghost" icons of the new exporte files in destinations would not appear immiediately as I thought they usually do. Once they are completed or 1/2 way through they appear.
I did not try the batchlist before. It is so clear as far as whats running and how much time left! I hope all will process fine.
Thank you!

Lightroom cc does not start. logout and login in creative cloud does not help. Have a test account, 2 days more to go (and want to decide whether to buy PS & LR CC or to stay with current desktop solutions.)

I installed lightroom cc. But it did not start. Tried the solution, that seemed to help many others (logout, login) but it did not help. Even did logout, restartet pc (win 8.1, 64) and logged in again. tried to log out and log in in the cloud panel and in photoshop cc. nothing helped.
Maybe it has to do with the fact, that i have a test account and only 2 more days to go? but i need to launch lightroom cc first before i can decide to purchase CC.

Thanks for your reply. I was able to find help through a tech support chat session and the person helped me edit my /etc/hosts file and it solved the problem.
For anyone else experiencing this issue (Mac OS X):
Close all other programs and sign out from the Adobe Desktop App
From the Finder, Go > Go to Folder...
Type /etc and hit enter
Find "hosts" file (only "hosts", there were similar files such as hosts.config but only open the one that says "hosts"
Open the file, and replace the entire content with ### Host Database## localhost is used to configure the loopback interface#
Close the file, sign back into the Adobe Desktop App
Problem solved!

Cannot install. Main volume is case-sensitive, but I have a volume that is not. How do I change the installation volume? Creative cloud does not support case-sensitive volumes.

I cannot install creative cloud on my macs main volume which is a case-sensitive volume. I have a second volume that is not case sensitive. How can I get the installer to use that volume?

YOu can't. The CC app itself will always install on the system volume. short of reformatting your volume there is no way to resolve this.

Download the creative cloud does not conclude - Windows 8

Hello! I'm from Brazil. I think its important to say this because I do not know if it's a server problem.
I'm trying to download the free version of LR and can not, under the Adobe installer, but when you download the program to DC, says that an error caused the program to stop working and you will find a solution if you have. I already tried several times.
What do I do?
And gives "installation failed, error code: 62"
Whaaaat?

Caroluokohama are you trying to install the trial version of Photoshop Lightroom? If so where are you download and installing Photoshop Lightroom from? Finally do you have any other Adobe software installed on your computer.

Creative cloud did not start after installation on mac

After I downloaded and Installed the latest version of adobe creative cloud, the application try to start by it does not run

Hi edwardw85407195 ,
every time Mac has released a major update like this, we have seen trouble. This trouble is seen when the OS is directly updated, over the top of the existing OS, as opposed to be being a fresh install on a clean system. These updates tend to break existing files by mangling permissions. Generally, if CC continues to not work, then the next most common solution in these situations is to uninstall and reinstall the product.
