Creative Cloud Update: Recurring error 205

Hi all,
I am trying to download and install the latest update to the Creative Cloud desktop, but keep getting the same error message "205" (suggesting, seemingly, that the file be 'corrupted'). I am pretty sure the download failed the first time when my internet connection cut out by accident while the update was downloading. It got stuck then at 42% and with each retry the file downloads fine until 42% before the error message appears.
I have tried getting off the wifi network and connecting directly through the modem (as recommended in other threads) with equal results. I live abroad and am on a rather slow connection, however, most updates have been able to download alright until now.
One thing I expect might be a solution would be to delete the temporary download file in order to reset the apparent memory of those 42% being the critical point. Where can I find the temporary download file?
Any suggestions are most welcome - as many of you will know, being forced to update the Creative Cloud desktop can effectively render one unable to work, with synchronized assets (fonts in particular) not being recognized in the programs until the update has taken place, so I am eager to get to a solution.
Cheers

  • Can't update, get "Photoshop 13.1.2 for Creative Cloud Done with Errors. Error Code: U44M1P6" Help!

    Have tried several times to Update Photoshop Mac CS6, always get "
    Photoshop 13.1.2 for Creative Cloud
    Done with Errors. Error Code: U44M1P6"
    What gives and how can I fix?

    In this case since it is a feature bearing update for Creative Cloud Bpolatty will need to download the update through the Adobe Application Manager/
    Bpolatty I would recommend reviewing the installation log file for the Photoshop 13.1.2 update.  You can find details on how to locate and interpret the log file at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.

    I am unable to install the creative cloud update - error 43 comes up at around 77%. I'm a relatively new user.

    WIthout proper system info and the detailed error report nobody can say much. Most likely you run out of disk space.

  • Error Code A12E1 and Creative Cloud Update Loop

    Possible Windows Solution - this applies to Windows systems only.
    Problem:
    1) You try to open the Adobe Creative Cloud and receive notification of an update. The options are to Update or Quit. When you click Update, the process starts and then quits with no warning.
    2) You have downloaded the Creative Cloud Manager or any software package installer. When you try to install the program, it quits and gives you a message about Error Code A21E1.
    Possible Cause:
    Due to the recent Cryptolocker virus, many reputable websites have been offering "fixes" to prevent the virus from installing itself. These fixes typically entail making changes to your local security policy, or in domain (office network) environments, making changes to Group Policy that block EXE (executable) files from running if they originate in the C:\Users\{username}\AppData\* folders. You can read more about that stuff HERE and HERE.
    Basically the problem is that the first thing the Adobe Cloud installer does is copy a setup helper to to C:\Users\{username]\AppData\Local\ACCCx2_3_0_322\Set-up.exe. If you or your network administrator have tried to prevent the Cryptolocker virus by putting a blanket stop on allowing EXE files to execute from the AppData folders, this file can't run and, Bob's-your-uncle, you get the Error Code A12E1 message.
    To see if this is the problem you need to check the Windows Event Viewer. You can access it by opening a Run dialog (Win+R) and typing in eventvwr. (If you need help navigating the Event Viewer, check out this YouTube video.) If you see a Windows Application Event 866 "Software RestrictionPolicies" you know this is the reason you can't install anything. If you click on the event, you can see the name and path of the file that is trying to execute.
    If you are like me and applied the Cryptolocker fix in a flurry of prevention activity and forgot if you applied the policy locally or at the group policy level, you can check the "Resultant Set of Policy" management console. Go back to the Run dialog and enter RSOP.MSC to open it. Navigate to Computer Configuration>Windows Settings>Software Restriction Policies and the same one under User Configuration to see if there are modifications. If you find something, right click on a policy object and select Properties to see the name of the GPO it came from.
    Solution:
    While you can tweak the settings to allow Abobe applications to execute, I just dropped the restrictions for now. If you are in a network environment and have an admin - give them the event viewer info and they should be able to set up the exclusion for you.
    In any event - I hope this helps. I hadn't seen anyone else post anything about this possible cause so I thought I should. Best of luck!

  • 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.

    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 always fails (PC), Uninstalls itself.

    Spoke with support on it once and they had me use an installation cleaner tool which didn't resolve the issue. This issue has existed for many months and it occurs on multiple machines. I could understand if it is a one time issue, but every time? Please resolve this issue. Thanks!

    Unable to check. Once you click "update" it uninstalls creative cloud so you cannot try the update again. Was using administrator account with Kaspersky active when I tried it last and failed to install. Next Creative Cloud update I can try to check with Kaspersky disabled.
    On a related note, trying to find the download link on your site for Creative cloud is quite counter intuitive. If you click on the menu and click creative cloud (while already logged in) it takes you to a page to "Start a trial" or "select a plan", and not download the actual program. If you click on the desktop apps, all the programs are listed but creative cloud is not. I have better luck Googling to find the legitimate download link than using the site navigation to find it. I finally bookmarked the page so I can find it faster next time I run into Error 50. Could you please pass that on to the web team?
    I only mention it as every time I have updated I have ended up with CC uninstalled and then I have to dig through the site every time to try to find the correct download location. After having it occur so many times, it gets old, which is why I finally posted.
    Thank you again for your help.

  • 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

    We've already had customer reports of errors. The Creative Cloud is,
    first and foremost, an oxymoron of the nth degree. Secondly, it's a
    cheap way to use real customers as beta testers. Adobe should be ashamed
    of themselves.

  • Blocked Creative Cloud updates

    In November Adobe advised me my credit card details had been hacked into, so I cancelled the cc, but the cc company took 3 weeks to issue a replacement. When new cc details into to MyAccount payment immediately resumed but download updates are blocked. How do we unblock Creative Cloud updates?

    KHolz I would recommend reviewing the installation log files for the Adobe update you are trying to apply.  Please see Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cc.html for information on how to locate and interpret your installation log files.  You are welcome to post any specific errors you discover to this discussion.

  • 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.

  • 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?
