Creative Diagnostics won't st

Helo,
Approx. a year ago, I bought SB Audigy 5. card, installed software and everything worked fine.
Yesterday I had to disconnect my speakers. Since I don't use firewire connector, but those "simple" ones - I had to connect them again but forgot in which order. So, I tried to run Creative Diagnostics, and it didn't start. After waiting a few minutes, I tried again. Now it displays a MessageBox named CTCplFW: "Unable to LoadLibrary". Then I look into the Task Manager - two CTCplFW tasks were running.
This could mean (I'm not sure though) that only one instance should be running, and the other one can't start because the first one locked some dll resource (or something). I pressed OK. Now just one CTCplFW instance is running, but I can't see its window.
This repeats when I restart the PC.
Also after successful repair of the software.
Also after successful uninstall and install of just Creative Diagnostics.
Could someone help?
Oz

  • Adobe Creative Cloud won't install

    Hey guys,
    I recently tried to install Adobe Creative Cloud but during the installation process it will suddenly quit on me. I tried it again, downloaded the installer again, rebooted my computer, but still can't get it to work. I do have other Adobe products on my computer that I can open but Creative cloud won't. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
    Here is as much information that I can provide.
    Again, nothing is popping out. The installation just stops.
    I am using Mac OS X 10.7.5
    I downloaded this off firefox, and yes I have tried downloading it from a different browser.
    Not sure what firewall or anti-virus system I have.
    This has not worked before
    I have not made any changes to my hardware.
    I hope this helps.

    Hi adobe2368,
    It would help us if you could share the following  log files. You can find details on how to locate and interpret the installation log files at Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cc.html

  • Creative Diagnostics & AutoUpdate Don't W

    Ok, now this is getting rediculous!
    Two weeks ago I updated Windows XP to SP2. My 3 year old SB Li've 5. soundcard and/or the related software totally trashed the SP2 update so badly that I just went out and bought a new hard dri've and reloaded everything, except the SB Li've 5. for fear that it would just hose up my system again.
    So I bought a new Audigy 2 ZS Gamer soudcard and proceeded with the install, using the disk that came in the box. I used the disk that came in the box because the instructions clearly said to and I planned to use the AutoUpdate after the initial install.
    The install seemed to go relati'vely smoothly, although it's still irritating that Creative still discretely loads all those AOL shortcuts and other misc crap that you don't want on your system. But I loaded everthing, full install just like the instructions said. After getting acquainted and making sure things generally worked, I figured I'd wrap up the install by running Creative Diagnostics and then do and AutoUpdate.
    Creative Diagnostics doesn't work. As quite a few others have mentioned (for which I haven't seen an answer that works), the Creative Diagnostics screen comes up and says hit "Next" to proceed -------well there is NO "Next: button. I can hit the Diagnose tab and it says hit "Start" to proceed-------but there is NO "Start" button. It doesn't work.
    So naturally I assumed that the box disk must have contained outdated software and proceeded to try to do an AutoUpdate. Of course, you immediately realize that the Creative website forces you to shutdown all primary security features of SP 2 (i.e. shut off popup blockers and enable auto download of Acti'veX features. After so doing, the AutoUpdate says it can't do an AutoUpdate because "a component is corrupted"! Well no sh-t Sherlock........ the corrupted component is the Creative Diagnostics!
    So now after pulling out my Audigy 2 ZS soundcard and reinserting it to make sure its properly inserted and uninstalling/reinstalling the disk software two more times, the Creative Diagnostics still doesn't work and the AutoUpdate still doesn't work.
    Any ideas? Do I just need to download all the updates manually and install them and will that make the Creative Diagnostics work? And then will I be able to use the AutoUpdate thereafter?
    Has Creative updated any of its drivers and software for SP 2? It seems like Microsoft gave companies a lot of advance notice.

    Thanks for the response.
    With respect to the Diagnostics, the normal setting on my LCD is 024 x 768 which also happens to be its nati've resolution and its highest resolution. I had already tried change to the resolution lower but still no buttons. But I did fiure it out. I normally nave my Display DPI setting on Large Size(20 DPI) so I switched it to Normal Size (96 DPI) and now all the buttons on the Diagnostic screen are available and it works just fine. (For others having trouble getting the buttons to show, they may have the same large size font setting I do.................so for XP systems go to Contol Panel, Appearance and Themes, Display icon, Settings tab, Advanced button, General tab.....you should see the drop down menu in the Display portion of screen to change the DPI of your screen fonts).
    Regarding the AutoUpdate issue, your link was not quite the answer, but even better, it was in fact the key clue to the solution that I never ever would have found in a million years!!! Sweet! I know that doesn't make sense so I'll try to explain, since it could impact others.
    I started to follow the instructions in your link and I was examining the 2 Creative Acti'veX items. I right clicked on each Creative Acti'veX icon to look at the properties. I then clicked on the Dependency Tab and saw that both Creative Acti'veX items were dependent on an item that made no sense whatsoever to me---- "Sonic\ Components....") and that item showed as "corrupted". I figured out that the corrupted item was from Sonic MyDVD OEM version 4.5 which came with and was installed recently with my new DVD R RW /CD R RW. Sonic MYDVD is software for home movie making stuff. I think the reason the Cretai've Acti'veX items showed it as dependent is because the MyDVD software is useful for hooking your camcorder up to a USB port and then editing/making a movie. Since, the MyDVD software must make your computer look as it has an acti've USB port at all times it screwed up the Creative AutoUpdate since the AutoUpdate clearly states to hook up all hardware that is using a USB port! I guess that is why it showed as dependent.
    At any rate, since I'll likely never use the Sonic MyDVD (at least not the OEM slim version), I quickly uninstalled the software and then removed the 2 Creative Acti'veX icons as the link suggested. I then retried AutoUpdate and it works like a champ!!!!
    Thanks

    Hi Pattie-F,
    It turned out that there was a fragmentary Uninstall of cc desktop that was being installed by startup routine ( .exe or .dll only?)  that was not showing in task manager that was preventing me or fresh install from deleting old files. When I went through startup list and removed all adobe startup installs I was able to reboot and run "cc clean" and get it to completely remove  cc desktop. Was late and went to bed at that point. Before I was getting message that cc clean was unable to remove all of cc desktop.

  • My Creative Cloud won't recognise Apps I already have installed

    My Creative Cloud won't recognise Apps I already have installed. I have since installed 1 more and this is the only one recognised and therefore updatable. I've tried logging out of my account and quitting Cloud then changing the opm.db file to opm.db.old in Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE and restarting but still the same. Any help much appreciated!

  • Audigy 2 ZS Diagnostics Won't Run After Driver Upd

    Diagnostics worked fine until I updated mu Audigy 2 ZS drivers to the latest version; 02.08.0004. I'm running XP Pro SP2. Followed the Creative update instructions to the letter. Downloaded the update package to my machine. Nothing else was running when I executed the update package. Even disabled network and then my AV. Now Diagnostics gets as far as the hardware Wave test then just literally disappears. No error messages, no application or process hangs showing in task manager and no errors showing up in XP event viewer.
    Tech Support says this shouldn't indicate that anything else is effected as long as the sound works, which it does. They couldn't explain why it won't run.
    My question: is there some way to safely delete this program? Since it doesn't work anymore it's useless and just taking up space.
    Thanks in advance for any help provided.

    I had the same problem but here is the solution (at least it worked for me)
    Click on Windows Start button. Select Run. Type in Regedit and click OK to run it. Navigate to to the node "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\<EM>Software\Creative Tech\Software Installed</EM>" and delete the node. Then navigate to the node "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\<EM>SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Unin stall\5CDDF96A-BC34-4D72-9ABA-EFFF0C39977</EM>" and delete the node.

  • Creative cloud won't sign in

    Using CC on Windows 8.1, 64-bit machine. Also have it on a Mac within terms of agreement.
    Trying to sign in using Updater or CC App, but it won't let me. Each time I sign in, it comes up with the message 'You've been signed out'. Tried multiple times. Have changed password and tried again, but to no avail.
    When opening Updater or Creative Cloud App, no prompt given to update
    Can sign into my Adobe account okay.
    Have run IMSLibReplacer.exe as suggested here - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/unable-login-creative-cloud-2 48.html
    This gives a succession of fails on rename and copy commands with error as 5 on all of them.
    Any ideas?

    Perksy3 that fact that you received error messages when trying to apply the IMSLibReplacer would seem to indiciate that the file permissions under your current User account have become compromised.

  • Creative Suite won't work anymore!

    Why won't my creative suite work anymore since I have upgraded my Mac system? I used it all the time. I cannot afford to buy more softward. I am a Senior and also a teacher. How can I use my Photoshop CS. It won't even open or give me a message.

    You have not provided any relevant technical info. Beyond that Adobe can't fix what Apple don't provide - the last version of  OSX providing PPC emulation stuff is officially 10.6.8 and an existing Rosetta install will be retained up to 10.7.5, but any version after that will not be able to support this workflow. And while we're there, this is also relevant:
