Creative Cloud Update downloads, installs but doesn't work?

Every time I launch my computer (Mac, latest OS), I see there are 9 updates available to download for Adobe CC. Every time I update a single app or everything, it downloads, installs but nothing is actually done. When I get info on apps. everything still shows as 12.0 as if it has not been updated. When I restart the computer again, i get the message that there are still 9 updates available to download. This is an endless cycle and no matter how many times I "Update All", it will continue to download, install but nothing actually gets updated.
I've fixed disk permissions, deleted preferences and allowed read/write access to all the Adobe folders and it's still not working.
Thanks.

Hi Motionlab_AU,
Please navigate to ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/ AAMUpdater/1.0 and rename to 1.0.old. Launch CC desktop and try updating again. (http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/access-hidden-user-library-files.html)

  • JDK 1.4 installs but doesn't work in XP

    I downloaded the new JDK 1.4 and installed it, but it doesn't work. No application that requires Java works... none of them can find the JVM or the reference to the JRE.
    I use to have only the JRE running here and everything was fine, but I want to install Together5, so I removed the JRE to install the full JDK.
    And now nothing works... no ENVIRONMENT VARs were set.

    Hello cdechery,
    When you say: "No application that requires Java works" do you mean that you cannot compile your programs?
    What happens if you enter java -version in a DOS command window? Do you get information about the current version or do you get an error message.
    I suspect that you get information about the current version. If not, set your PATH environmental variable. See the installation instructions for Windows/XP for details on setting your PATH environmental variable.
    The more common problem is that you need to set the CLASSPATH environmental variable to point to your own .class and .jar files (but not the system .class and .jar files).
    Use a command line similar to: java -cp .;c:\dev\classes\myapp.jar  myapp to run your application.
    What was your previous version of the JRE?

  • Flash sort of installs but doesn't work

    It seems to install it shows the ocx file in my flash folder
    and the plugin in the browser but will not open flash movies or
    flash content.. I know for a fact it's my flash because no flash
    items will show up, the test page also is a no show. I have tried
    version 7, 8, and 9 and neither work for me. I'm using IE6 because
    7 didn't work for me when clicking on links in my Outlook Express,
    which I also tried microsoft newsgroups with no help. I also did
    various of suggested fixes they sent me.
    I have turned off (disabled) what plugins I had running and
    tried running IE for several hours, used the uninstaller for flash
    and tried to download again and still nothing. Does anyone else
    have any suggestions? This is really upsetting me because I can't
    login to some forums I'm in.

    Try searching your registry for Flash9.ocx to make sure it
    registered right.
    Check for:
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{1171A62F-05D2-11D1-83FC-00A0C9089C5A}\InprocServer32
    (Default) C:\WINDOWS\system32\macromed\flash\
    Flash9.ocx
    ThreadingModel Apartment
    If yours says Flash7.ocx or some other number, the installer
    didn't update your registry properly.

  • Flash Player Installs but doesn't work WIN 7

    It doesn't ever appear to be loaded when I look for it. Why in the world would it say that it has loaded and installed when it doesn't??
    Look folks, I'm literally losing my mind here. I'm IRATE.
    If you think you've seen this problem before, GUESS AGAIN. I have tried EVERY single suggestion that's on this website as well as others and NONE of it has worked. I keep seeing folks say that you have to have the 32 bit IE instead of the 64 bit. It says to check to make sure...when I look in About IE, it says 256 bit. What does that mean?? It says NOTHING about 32 bit OR 64 bit...WHICH ONE DO I HAVE??? No clarity on this site WHATSOEVER.
    I've tried the uninstaller...putting it on my desktop...yadda, yadda. Restarted my comp around 20 times...nothing.
    Seriously....the internet and, by extension, my computer are useless if I can't use flash. No videos, games, or anything other than text and pics. I'm 22, I'm not computer illiterate. Actually, until this...I've never had problems with computers and I've always thought of myself as fairly knowledgeable.
    All I really want to do is talk to a person...but I don't want to pay $40. Someone please help me.

    Hi, Please take a deep breath:-) Now I'll have questions that need answered so I can help restore your sanity/computer.
    We'll just take it one step at a time.
    Go to C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash   Open Flash and post back all files listed. You didn't indicate any browser other than IE8, but if you see any NPSWF files then right click on each. Then click on Properties to obtain the version numbers.
    With Windows, the default browser is the 32bit browser. You would know whether your Operating System is a 64bit or not, but we'll know after you check those files in the Flash folder. A 64bit OS will have a 64bit browser and a 32bit browser, but since Flash Player needs the 32bit browser, then you have that. If you tried using a 64bit browser(if you had a 64bit OS), you'd receive a message directing you to read about the Flash Player & the 64bit OS. Hope that explains the difference.
    After the above, Using IE, go to Tools, Manage addons and under "Show"(very light text) look in all addons for Shockwave Flash Object. Is it Installed and Enabled?
    Then go here and test: As soon as the site opens you should see the Flash logo animate and the version of Flash Player you have will be displayed. http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    Let me know on the above. (you'll be glad to know that I won't bill you $40.00:-)
    Thanks,

  • I just bought Creative Cloud Photography Plan and it doesn't work?

    So I just bought the CC photography plan and when I click the download now button it re-directs to a failed to open page....  Why?

    We can't know. We know nothing about your system, your browser, your Internet configuration and so on. Something on your end is blocking stuff and causing this.

  • Why is the download speed for Creative Cloud updates and initial software installation so slow?

    Why is the download process for Adobe Creative Cloud updates and initial installations so slow? I can download and update other software from other providers almost an order of magnitude faster. This slow download problem has been present since I started using Creative Cloud soon after it was initially offered.
    Adobe customer support maintains that there is no throttling at Adobe's end, and that no one has complained about this problem -- this forum shows the latter not to be true.
    What is the problem?

    Hi ErstwhileCreative,
    I don't think I've ever checked the download speed but the installers are definitely large files, many several GB. It might seem longer because the download immediately progresses into the installation at 50%

  • Creative Cloud update fails with "the download appears to be corrupted" when tried through our company's firewall, but succeeds if the computer is taken outside the firewall

    Creative Cloud update fails with "the download appears to be corrupted" when tried through our company's firewall, but succeeds if the computer is taken outside the firewall. The IT guys have opened up the ports and URL's specified in the Adobe documentation.  I have also captured the network traffic of both the failed and successful downloads for IT to examine (using Little Snitch), however they can find nothing to account for the problem.  Adobe just seems to "give up and die" after about 2-3 minutes.  Why is this?  How can I or IT fix this?
    Can I send the above log files to someone familiar with these issues for examination?

    Hi Gveo,
    Please follow the article: Creative Cloud Help | About Creative Cloud Packager which will help you to get your issue fixed.

  • Creative Cloud Updater doesn't work

    Hello,
    last year I downloaded a trial version for the creative cloud. Then I decided to buy a normal CS6 license and didn't use CC anymore.
    Now I would like to try Adobe Muse. But somehow I just can't use the CC updater anymore. When I try to install it again, the installation just stops, without a warning or anything and nothing happens.
    I hope somebody can help me, thank you!

    Hi Jeff,
    Thank you for your help. It works now, i uninstalled CC and installed it again.
    Best
