Creative Cloud is Black Screen

I just installed creative cloud on my new laptop. Windows 8,1 All I get is a black screen. The blue circle loads for a second but then it's just black see screen shot
I have CC on another pc on same network with no issues I know it's not a firewall issue.
I have tried to
reinstall
adobe cleaner tool
deleting oobe file/ folder in both the app data folder and the common files folder
rename oobe file/ folder

I had the same problem. HP Zbook 14 with fresh Windows 8.1 Update 1. This laptop has a switchable/hybrid graphics card with Intel HD 4400 and AMD Fire Pro M4100 chipsets. Tried latest drivers from HP as well as from Intel and AMD without sucess. The problem seems to be related to the switching/power management features. As a workaround, setting "Creative Cloud.exe" and "Adobe CEF Helper.exe" to use "Power Saving" graphics settings in the AMD CCC made the application work (no black/black window).
A post in another forum suggested using the modified drivers "Leshcat Catalyst UnifL" from leshcatlabs.net - Keeping it Simple. Ads free. After installing these drivers (Leshcat’s Catalyst 14.12 Omega UnifL) all Adobe applications are working flawlessly!
(Note: Delete any switchable graphics application settings and go with the defaults).
So to summarize this seems like a driver problem rather that an Adobe issue. Before updating I had problems with hardware accelerated gui in Spotify as well (also black screen). This issue was also solved with Leshcat

    I'm afraid disabling the Intel graphics only triggers a host of problems with my PC and manually disabling then enabling when I want to use CC is an unfair expectation to place on a user paying as much as we do for CC.  As such, I need a solution that will solve this problem without requiring me to engage a settings change that, in turn, triggers other graphics problems. Otherwise, Adobe needs to begin refunding a portion of my monthly fee due to the inability to access features.

    Branching this to a separate discussion as your current difficulties were not resolved by the solutions offered in that discussion.

  • Why is my Creative Cloud login screen showing a black window and nothing else?

    After using the Creative Cloud installer and the download looking like it was working, what I presume is a login in window has launched but it's just a black window with a white logo at the top. There is nowhere to enter any information and the only button that works in the window is a cog icon which allows me to quit.

  • How t download apps when only trial versions appear?? - I am an active member of the Creative Cloud.

    After signing in to Creative Cloud, I attempt downloading of different applications (for example Photoshop and Illustrator) but
    I only get the trial versions as an option for download.
    I am confirmed as an active paying member and I did install the latest version of Adobe Application Manager.
    What else can I try? Please help.
    Thanx a million in advance

    If you are getting the TRIAL option on the creative cloud website then follow the steps for section A.
    If you are getting the trial prompt when launching the installed application,  follow the steps on Section B.
    Section A (Applcations in trial mode in creative.adobe.com):
    1. Please make sure you are logged in with the active subscribed adobe id.
    2. Try to log out and log in back again.
    3. Try another borwser.
    4. Clear the cache and history of the browser reload it and then try logging again.
    Section B (Trial prompt when launching the installed application )
    Launch one of the problem Creative Cloud applications.
    On the Creative Cloud app trial screen, click License This Software.
    Sign in with your Adobe ID associated with your Creative Cloud membership.

  • Black screen in Creative Cloud app 1.8.0.447 on Windows 7

    Hi!
    After updating the Creative Cloud application to the latest version (1.8.0.447), I have a blank black screen in the Home tab of the application. The Apps, Resources and Behance tabs work as they should.
    Also, I noticed that playing any one of the "What's new" videos that pop up when starting an installed application (e.g. InDesign) gives blank screen. I can hear the sound of video, but there is no movie or playing controls whatsoever.
    Everything was fine prior to the update. I have not made any other updates in between the two Creative Cloud versions (no Windows Update, no new graphics drivers). I am using Windows 7 Enterprise on HP Zbook 14 with dual graphics (Intel/AMD).
    UPDATE:  As i keep working, I discover more parts of the application suite that look similary (blank/black). Here's the new Adobe Color panel in InDesign.
    Regards,
    Jacob

    Hello,
    I had a simillar issue using my Notebook (Samsung Series 7 NP770Z7E-S04DE with Core i7 (3rd Gen) and a second graphics adapter (AMD Radeon HD 8870M). After upgrading from Win 8 to 8.1 i had really a lot of trouble because the OS update brought new drivers for both graphics adapters which obviously did not work together. I had to reverse the update because the notebook was not showing anything but the mouse cursor. Windows 8 had some other anoying bugs so I decided to ignore the warnings of my IT-Partner and Samsung and do a clean install of Windows 7 Pro. Since then I had the problem you, jacobwod, describe but I did not care because neither I used the Cloud-Space nor there were fonts available. Today I read your post and experimented with the settings. By accident I found out that enforcing the usage of the Intel-Chip (HD 4400 I think) for not only the creative cloud.exe but also a file called "adobe cef helper.exe" in C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Creative Cloud\hex\" seems to be a solution. Thanks jacobwod for getting me on the right track.

    What happened yesterday may have been caused by the SOPA protest action that was joined by a lot of sites yesterday and such an action won't happen that often.
