Creative Cloud Manager starts with empty window

Hello everybody
I have a problem with the creative cloud manager. After I have uninstalled Photoshop  (Wiindows7 64 bit), the creative cloud manager starts up "empty". I have no menus, no applications.
I need to reinstall Photoshop, but this doesn't work without creative cloud manager
I have uninstalled the ccm and reinstalled it, same result: empty window.
I appreciate any input on this
Thomas

Hello marsupilami99,
in this case I would download a really new trial version of your program(s) in question and change it/them into a "real" version later, BUT because you said, that you "re-installed" already, so it become a little bit complicated. It would be necessary that you have to use "Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool".
Here an advice for that (The order varies depending on your individual needs. Please read all my proposals first, so you can better choose the first step:)
1. Maybe you have to activate/deactivate, so please have a look there:
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-deactivation-products.html
2. Sometimes, we know in the meantime, the "opm.db file" is the culprit. In this case you should delete it.
3. Did you already try "uninstalling and re-installing"? Be careful with (de)installing aso. by (de)installing by your own resources. As much as I regret it and as strange as it may seem I fear it's a challenge for Adobe's Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. Sometimes - for whatever reasons - CC doesn't "want" to work. In this case you should CC completely delete and reinstall by help of Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. (A try to uninstall by own resources is not enough!)
I quote: Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool helps resolve installation problems for Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite (CS3-CS6) applications. The tool removes installation records for prerelease installations of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications. It does not affect existing installations of previous versions of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications.
Please use: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html   and follow the prescribed sequence of operations
4. If necessary and for further questions click through http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html and if "open" please use chat, I had the best experiences. I quote from Preran: The chat button is activated as soon as there is an agent available to help.
Good luck!

  • Creative Cloud App is an empty window.

    I just upgraded from a single-app license for Illustrator to the full Creative Cloud suite.   Downloaded and ran the Creative Cloud app, and all i have is an empty window....  Please help.
    Thanks,
    Gar

    1.  quit the app (from the task bar) and relaunch.  if that fails:
    2.  Remove the OPM.db file and relogin into the Creative Cloud desktop application using the Adobe ID tied to your subscription.
        Mac OS: You can locate the OPM.db file in the \User\<user name>\Library\Application Support\Adobe\OOBE folder. To access the hidden user Library folder, see Access hidden user library files | Mac OS 10.7 Lion.

  • Creative Cloud management app failed to install, again, remedy, clue

    It failed yet again today for me, but in a particular way, and thereby gave a clue at least of one probably unknown failure mode which I can pass on.
    - I was trying to install the very latest Creative Cloud manager, which self-announced itself today 12 February 2014 when I tried to use it to check for updated applications.
    - it downloaded and started to run, then failed with the very clever 'failed to install' small alert. A small alert for very small knowledge of the actual cause? Surely you can do better.
    - I went on the forums and found all the times and ways this has caught up others before. I saw the 'rename OOBE folder' trick, and remembered that thus was the only thing that would actually fix the Creative Cloud manager one or more times before on my computers.
    - thus I tried to rename OOBE after killing every Adobe-named app in the Windows 8.1 Task Manager, and failed -- due to some nameless program holding it open.
    - I then stopped and restarted the machine.
    - I thought a moment and realized I'd run another Adobe installer an hour or two before, to updated Premiere Elements 11 to the latest possible Adobe Camera Raw as its updater offered.
    - thus instead of renaming OOBE, I ran the Adobe Creative Cloud manager updater when it offered again towards the end of booting up
    - this time it succeeded, hence I believe that other Adobe ACR installer had been at fault, leaving files unclosed or otherwise locked within OOBE. That's the new clue to Adobe developers.
    - If this hadn't succeeded, I'd have stopped and restarted the machine again, and then renamed C:\Program Files(x86)/Common/Adobe/OOBE.
    I think this renaming is a lot better way to proceed (stop/start, adding possibly safe boot with no startup apps if OOBE remains locked to renaming when that method may be needed) than using the AdobeCreativeCloudCleanup tool as the troubleshooting page recomnmends.
    The reason: this benighted cleanup tool does _not_ offer any way to remove Creatuive Cloud manager itself, even though support here suggests that it does. You can only choose variations which insist on uninstalling all your Adobe programs, CS6 included with Creative Cloud ones. I am not going to do that except at extreme duress. So far renaming OOBE and thus forcing Creative Cloud to recreate it has fixed every one of the blind, unspecific, and prevalent errors with Creative Cloud.
    I think that much better work can be done on this Creative Cloud software, but I am constrained by a particular American folk tale told to children, which suggests 'If you don't have anything nice to say, then don't say anything.' 
    I can only say that respect will be gained not by talk, or telling a lot of complicated procedures to recover software that costs like an automobile.
    Respect will only be gained by really involving yourself, learning, and then doing all of this correctly. That's what every respected software developer in the world does.

    Jeff, thanks equally for coming back on this.
    - I did begin the process on the page you linked.
    - when I got to the step running the CC Cleaner tool, it offered me no option to remove the Creative Cloud Manager -- only to remove all my apps, which are largely CS6. This is counter to the suggestion that you can remove just the manager, and not welcome as you will understand.
    - it was at this point that I recovered the procedure of just shifting OOBE out of play. When this wasn't possible due to invisibly held open folders or files, I realized the problem might have been due to the earlier Premiere 11 ACR update (you have to think a bit for reasons why it might want to do that...).
    - Thus when I stopped and restarted to assure a clean reboot, I thought to just let the Creative Cloud Manager try again when it offered this.
    - Without further intercession, this time the Creative Cloud Manager succeeded.
    I would say that the move-OOBE-out-of-play to force recreate (or sometimes it has been move a certain file in OOBE) is a much preferred repair that has always worked for me in the numerous failures of Creative Cloud Manager over the last year. We don't really want to spend the hours and take the risk of removing all our Adobe CS and/or CC applications, plus adding all of their updates again, as you will also understand.
    This points to a way Adobe could very much lower the agony of the Creative Cloud Manager, its updates and its crossed wires. I do appreciate the problem, though not why at your budget levels it hasn't had a definitive response. Some experience directing projects and having to take over offshore team management directly might suggest where you are finding the difficulty, at least.
    In the mean time, why not put in place a recovery for failed Creative Cloud Manager activities including updates, which would simply and automatically do the task of accurately renaming the OOBE folder (for each attempt, no matter how many times  it had been done before)j, then triggering a restart followed by reinstall and information recovery of the Creative Cloud Manager? It could be something like Microsoft's Fix-Its, for convenience, which would also leave open a doorway to reversal if somehow necessary.
    I suggest you might lower the incidence of this genre of problems by a very large factor if you were to do so, replacing the presently procedure with its flaws for those employing Adobe software.
    Anyway, I hope the suggestion leads in positive ways for your products, and wish your team a good day.

  • Creative Cloud Manager - Download Error - cannot update apps

    This is an ongoing issue for me.  Whether it's AAM or the new CCM, when I attempt to access apps and updates I receive a Download Error message (see pic) which will not allow me to update or download apps.
    After experiencing this with the AAM in May, Adobe support provided me with a work around which amounted to creating a new user on my machine and installing the AAM for that user.  I was then able to update the apps I'd installed previously and install two more apps on my machine.
    Now I'm experiencing this issue again - still for the default user on my machine and now for the new fake user I created per Adobe support's instructions.
    I'm using Windows 8, Google Chrome browser (I can't update the apps through Adobe, either).
    I'd love to get a handle on this issue and get it corrected once and for all and, hopefully, without having to create another 'ghost' user so I can update and install apps.
    Thanks.

    For my particular issue I finally found a discussion from another user who was experiencing what seemed to be a similar problem.  I'm not sure why the AAMUdater folder is wreaking such havoc for some people but not for others.  'Tis a mystery.
    I had to unhide the appdata folder (I'm in windows 8):
    Windows key + R
    Type in 'explorer'
    Click on 'View' tab
    Tick box next to 'hidden' to unhide
    Then I was able to find the AAMUpdater folder:
    users/myname/appdata/local/Adobe/AAMUpdate.
    I renamed the AAMUpdater folder to oldAAMUpdater (just to make sure this was the issue) and et voila!  Success.  I could open the Creative Cloud Manager and update existing apps and download new apps.
    Thank you, David, for your suggestion.  Since I wasn't having a server error I didn't think that fix would pertain to my issue of the anonymous download error.

  • Apps are not loading in creative cloud manager to install on mac osx yosemite

    I am trying to download apps from the creative cloud manager. No apps are appearing i just get a blue spinning wheel. They are updating fine on my laptop which both are updated with osx yosemite.

    I'm also experiencing the same. I started to download Creative Cloud today, and am stuck with the spinning wheel when I go to download the apps.

  • Creative Cloud Manager Problem

    Everytime I try to update my creative cloud manager, I get this message (See Attached Screenshot). I have no idea what this means and how to get rid of it and make my manager work correctly. Windows 8 computer.

    There are a large number of users who are experiencing that very same "issue", which is clearly a bug that has NOT been addressed!
    Furthermore,it is NOT ADVISABLE for anyone tinkering with their system, as some perhaps "well meaning" but misguide CSR and mods have suggested you do, as it very may well (and quite likely will) cause FATAL DETRIMENTAL changes to your computer's Registry, source files, et al, resulting in inoperable computers!
    ADOBE: Fix the bugs and issue patches, s/w designed to operate propertly on ALL platforms, in a timely manner!
    Also, to anyone who lives in the State of California, if you do NOT get proper, immediate resolution to your issues, for a paid-for product, then I strongly advise you to file a complaint with the CA State Attorney General's online form, stating that you purchased a product that is not operable as contracted for, name the isses, etc.  That office will send a formal inquiry/complaint and issue a short timeline for response and resolution.

    I am trying to use the trial creative cloud software on a PC windows 8.1 - I've downloaded and removed Photoshop CC 2014 two times - every time I open the file it says there is a problem and it shuts down and closes. I can open indesign and maybe other apps but photoshop no. Any ideas?

    I don't think I can access the crash report? Excuse the ignorant questions I'm about to make am a relative tech novice.
    Soo - as mentioned every time I open photoshop it crashes - it just says there's an error and the program will shut down and if there's a solution windows will notify me. Then nothing...
    I've tried to look in photoshop files for the detailed crash report & the system event viewer but cannot find a file with those names. I've also looked in the windows files for files with those names but cannot find them either - so I don't know where to look.
    Any guidance would be great.

  • Creative Cloud both on Mac and Windows on a second computer

    Is it possible to use Creative Cloud both on Mac and Windows on a second computer with one license? At home I work with Mac, and out I work with Windows.

    In 2.1.5 of the Software License Agreement it says that you have to own tow separate licenses if you use Mac and Windows on one computer. Is this not also the case if you have two computers, one operating with Mac and one operating with Windows?
    2.1.5 Dual Boot Platform. The Software is licensed for use on a specific operating system platform. Customer
    must purchase a separate license for use of the Software on each operating system platform. By way of example,
    if Customer desires to install the Software on both the Mac OS and Windows operating system platforms on a
    device that runs both of those platforms (i.e., a dual boot machine), then Customer must first obtain two separate
    licenses for the Software. This is true even if two versions of the Software, each designed for a different operating
    system platform, are delivered to Customer on the same media.

  • Apps tab in Creative Cloud manager is blank

    I'm trying to download a free trial of After Effects. I have downloaded the Creative Cloud manager for my desktop, but the Apps tab remains blank with a spinning wheel. The other tabs all show their appropriate options, but the Apps tab shows nothing. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Creative Cloud, but no luck. Is there perhaps a way to download AE without using the desktop manager?

    the cc desktop app is used to install and update cc programs (and a few other thinigs).  but that does not include 'opening' the installed programs.
    click your start button or your program files directory to find the acrobat executable to launch acrobat (and any of your other apps, adobe or otherwise).

    Hi angelogiuseppe9,
    If you are getting blank screen after launching Creative Cloud Desktop app then deleting opm.db should help. Please delete all the contents from this location.
    C:\Users\abhijiku\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
    If you are getting Error 206 while installing then try to change the connection from LAN to Wifi and vice cersa. You can also try disabling your software firewall if any.
    Please let us know if it helps
