Creative Cloud update failures and resets

Today, my computer unexpectedly crashed. In order for it to repair itself, it had to "revert to a previous version". Doing so altered the Creative Cloud software that I had installed the day before. At first, it looked like it had been removed, since the Creative Cloud shortcut -- and the one I had made for the two programs I downloaded, Flash and Photoshop -- had disappared from my Desktop.
When I went in search of the files to launch the programs, I couldn't find them in      Computer > Local Disk (:C) > Adobe > Flash CC/Photoshop CC      where they had been before.
I opened Creative Cloud and saw that there were updates availalbe for these two programs. I thought this might improve something, so I tried to update.
Photoshop CC gets about 50% through the update and then fails. No matter how much I retry, the same thing happens. When I choose "Learn more" next to "Update failed", it gives me the following error message.
Clicking on "More Details" sends me here.
But none of the files here or in the sub-folder can be executed by my computer/
Flash, on the other hand, updated perfectly -- but when I click on the Flash launcher file, it gives me this message.
>>> NOTE: It occured to me that I should uninstall and reinstall the separate programs -- but when I open the "Uninstall a program" section on my Control Panel, it DOESN'T EVEN LIST Flash and Photoshop.
Through a convoluted series of attempts to fix the problem, I have deleted many of my Adobe files, restored them from the Recycle Bin, uninstalled the Creative Cloud from my control panel, reinstalled it, and still nothing seems to work.
I'm a freshman art school student, and I got this Creative Cloud program for free. I NEED the programs it offers. And I desperately hope someone can help me with this problem!

  • Software Restriction Policy - Creative Cloud Update

    Hi there,
    We run very restrictive "Software Restriction Policy" or SRP in our environment. Creative Cloud updater program isn't able to run because it is prevented by SRP.
    User launches "Creative Cloud" updater program and attempt to login using their credentials but get signed out right away because, what i assume they have no administrative priviledges.
    Any idea which local path needs to be whitelisted in order for adobe updater program to run?
    Thank you,

    Hi Cesare,
    Welcome to Adobe Forum,
    The following host/port combinations may need to be whitelisted when logging in with an Adobe ID to download, install, and activate licensing for applications via a Creative Cloud membership.
    *.adobe.com:443
    *.adobelogin.com:443
    You can opt for CC  package & deploy it.

  • I have recently updated the new apps via creative cloud now photoshop and bridge no longer work, they open then say they have encountered a problem and close, I also tried opening the old version of photo shop but getting the same result

    I have recently updated the new apps via creative cloud now photoshop and bridge no longer work, they open then say they have encountered a problem and close, I also tried opening the old version of photo shop but getting the same result

    What OS version? What's the exact error? Exactly when does the error occur? What previous versions? What is on the screen when the error displays? Does Photoshop get fully open?
    Try opening Photoshop holding down Shift key immediately to turn off plug-ins. Lots of good suggestions here: Photoshop: Basic Troubleshooting steps to fix most issues

  • When Creative Cloud updated a few days ago (Win7) it reported no installed apps. In Lightroom I keep getting messages that a new version is available. Installed it from CC and it installed without error, CC shows I installed it, but it simply fails to run

    When Creative Cloud updated a few days ago (Win7) it reported I had no installed apps.
    In Lightroom I keep getting messages that a new version is available. Installed it from CC and it installed without error, CC shows I installed it, but it simply fails to run.
    How do I get CC to find apps installed under the previous version?
    And how do I get Lightroom CC to run?
    Peter

    I still don't know how to get CC to find that I have Photoshop CC installed, but running Creative Cloud, going to Preferences and signing out, then signing in again got Lightroom CC to work.
    Since Photoshop CC is still working despite apparently not being installed things are now OK, at least for the moment. But I'm not feeling at all happy with Adobe.

  • 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 updated itself yesterday. Downgraded cloud storage allowance to 2GB and data directories on hard drive messed up.

    Creative Cloud updated itself yesterday.
    After the update it seems to have downgraded my business account to free creative cloud, I say this because my data allowance in the adobe cloud has been reduced from 20Gb to 2Gb - My last  monthly payment was taken as normal so it is not a non-payment issue. This is a problem since I have over 5Gb currently stored.  Following the update, as the creative cloud indicated synching in progress but I could see the allowance reduced to 2GB I paused the synch for fear of loss of my critical work data. There now seems to be an issue in the Adobe bridge, with two directories on my hard drive. One is called Creative Cloud (Unkown) with an old creation date which seems to contain all my data. The other directory is called Creative Cloud but only contains about a tenth of the data and was created subsequent to the update of the Creative Cloud application.
    So I have 2 issues to resolve:
    1 - Adobe - please tell me why my cloud allowance is reduced to 2GB. My account payments are up to date so please do something about this.
    2 - How do I safely handle the data directories so that the synch can continue without data loss?
    Thanks

  • I prepaid the creative cloud last year and now its time to update, but I notice that i only use about 5 of the apps, is there anyway and I can just purchased those.

    I prepaid the creative cloud last year and now its time to update, but I notice that i only use about 5 of the apps, is there anyway and I can just purchased those.

    No.
    Cloud apps are only available via subscription via a Cloud plan.
    If you need 3 or more apps then a Cloud Complete membership is the way to go.

  • Perpetual license and creative cloud update popup window

    I initially downloaded a 30 day free trial of lightroom from Adobe website which I guess is from the "cloud". I since have purchased a perpetual license that used a new serial #. When I log into my computer I keep getting an annoying creative cloud update window saying there is an update. Is this update window only for creative cloud downloaded software and not perpetual license owners? If it is, how do I disable or remove this annoying cloud update pop up feature from my Mac.

    Hi Loveppro11,
    Please let us know the version of Mac you are using.
    Naviagte to Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers and uninstall Creative cloud.
    Run the Adobe Cleaner to remove any leftover ruminants: http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html.
    Download and Install CC desktop from:https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud .
    If still the same issue then enable root account and check whether its working there: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1528http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11331 .

  • Unable to install Creative Cloud Updates

    Adobe Illustrator CS6 Update (version 16.2.0)

    There was an error installing this update. Please quit and try again later. Error Code: U44M1P34
    That enough information? After chasing around the Adobe Help system for an hour and a half today and not being able to contact anyone at all yesterday when this forst started occuring, I'm kinda getting annoyed
    Then getting on here and finding that my screen name (my own name, registered with Adobe and on the forums) isn't available, one could be excused for an excess of peevishness, I hope.

    I finally found a solution that worked!
    I had to find the adobe logs to understand what happened, and found this error "information not found in Media_db".
    Here's the location of the solution: Re: Getting fatal Exit Code 34 when installing an app
    And here's the answer copied and pasted from the page. I have windows 8 64 bit, but this solution worked for me. The downside was that it said many of my applications weren't installed in the CC app, so I had to hit reinstall on many of them, but everything installed and updated correctly after this.
    I had the very same problem, and I am using windows 7 too. After chat with the adobe tech support. He showed me how to fix the problem.
    Also, I tried the clean tool already. That didn't help.
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe   if you use 32bit system I think it would be C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe
    Change 3 folder name.
    Adobe PCD -> Adobe PCDold
    backup -> backupold
    caps -> capsold
    Then run the setup file again.
    This method worked for me. Hope that would work for you also and save you some time.

  • Creative Cloud update to version 2.7.1.418 killed my Windows 8.1 system!

    Earlier tonight, I saw the balloon from Creative Cloud stating that an update was available.  So I installed it.  Half-way during the installation, my windows desktop disappeared.
    I started the task manager and restarted "Explorer.exe".  That made the background reappear, but the taskbar was blank with just the lone Windows 8.1 icon on the very left.  Hovering over the taskbar showed the wait cursor.
    The task manager showed everything was running normally but the desktop was clearly broken.  I checked the directories and everything was as expected.
    So I held my breath and rebooted.  After logging in, the desktop slowly appeared over about 10 minutes, but all the desktop icons were still missing, as were the taskbar icons.  Only a few of the notification icons appeared.
    I then managed to bring up a command window with the task manager (fortunately, Ctrl+Alt+Esc still worked) and launched System Restore (rstrui.exe).  It showed me the Adobe Creative Cloud was the most recent restore point (below); the previous restore point after that was a Microsoft Windows update from 2 days ago.  When I asked for the list of files that were affected by the Creative Cloud update and would be reverted, it showed this:
    I again held my breath and restored my machine to before the above CC update; after about 20 minutes of shucking and jiving and a reboot, everything was working properly again.
    So there is clearly something out of kilter with this latest update.  Adobe the Time Vampire has once again stolen 2 hours of my life, but this time, at least it wasn't a license server issue.  I think.

    Dave: I did the Microsoft Update two days before this happened, and rebooted as required.  I just created a new restore point and lauched Creative Cloud.  Now I get the famous white screen:
    It just sits and spins (been 10 minutes now). 
    Fortunately, I saved away this command (which I've had to use 4 or 5 times already):
    del %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE\opm.db
    Unfortunately now, I get this (even after closing the above window):
    The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
    So I killed everything that said "Adobe" in the task manager and this time, the command succeeded.
    Fortunately, the current apps seem to still work.  I can't seem to find the "Creative Cloud" app in the applications on my system, but I launched Photoshop CC, told it to look for updates, and got a list of the 5 prgorams that need updates in the Adobe Application manager:
    I will proceed with the updates, holding my breath.

    Hi Harvester,
    I've been having this issue for a while, and I FINALLY got it to work.  For what it's worth, here's what I did.
    I was trying to send files from my laptop to my desktop and for some reason i saw that my desktop couldn't find my laptop.  I went to the Sharing settings and saw that under my "Computer Name" there was nothing there.  This may have happened due to my upgrade to Mavericks.  Once I placed filled that info in, and restarted my laptop.  Lo and behold, Creative Cloud and Growl started working side by side again
    This may not be your issue, but I thought I'd pass it along.

  • Creative Cloud Update

    Creative Cloud Update made it disappear and never came back tried other downloads etc. etc. but nothing even my add/remove programs had a blank icon for it and said it was gone and deleted the icon

    Hi elfelm,
    We ask windows to reload explorer during update to load our latest dll. Sometimes, windows does quit the explorer but for some reason fails to start the explorer again. A simple workaround would be to press Ctrl+Shift+Esc keys simultaneously. This should launch task manager.  Click on File and then New task. Type in explorer and press enter. This should run explorer again. Alternatively do a hard reboot of the system.

  • 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?
