I can't get Creative Cloud Desktop installed on my new iMac

I bought a new iMac. It's running Mac OS X 10.9.2.
1. I backed up everything on the old mac.
2. I uninstalled all Adobe Creative Cloud apps on the old mac.
3. I used Apple Migration Assistant to transfer all data from the old mac to the new mac.
4. I downloaded and installed Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop on the new mac.
5. I clicked on the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop icon at the top of the screen. (upper right)
6. A window popped open, save "Creative Cloud" written on a black ground, then were nothing in the window. The window is blank. I wasn't asked to accept the terms of use. There is no "home", "apps", "files", "fonts" "behance" options. There's nothing.
Everything other time I've installed Creative Cloud Desktop, the first question is to accept the terms of use. In this case, there was nothing - just an empty window. Also, the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop icon at the top of the screen is light grey. It turns black after the user accepts the terms of use. The icon at the top of my screen is always light grey.
What can I do to fix this?

Ok, got it. What did I do?
# Uninstall Adobe Cloud Application
# Delete the folders
- Mac OS: /User/<username>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE
- Mac OS: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/AAMUpdater
- Mac OS: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/AAMUpdaterInventory
- Mac OS: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE
# started Photoshop, an error comes up and I reinstalled the Adobe Application Manager
# installed the Adobe Cloud Application
# restarted the mac
Adobe CC up and running

    Are you on Windows computer, if yes.
    End All Adobe background processes from task manager and then try to update , processes like Acrotray

    Register Applications photoshop CC   Lightroom 300 baht per month Creative Cloud desktop install and load the program into Lightroom down normally open normally, but the work load photoshop program installed. Open access Like we use it to fill a 30-day trial version, serial no.

    1) WHAT if I juse JUST ONE Adobe program pretty often? 
    They have a single use subscription for $20/mo.  Similar to upgrading extended version every 1.5 years.
    2)  WHAT if I created projects like 2 months ago and I didn't use Photoshop for a full month.  Who assures us that with the CC series the projects are opened with the old CS ones?Or don't use it every day?
    Same problem if you own it.  If upgrade price is $400 every 1.5 year that is same as $16/month.  You can choose not to update and version will be same as when you last used it.
    3) WHAT if I don't use Adobe 24/7?  and 5) Making an day-based subscription??  Same problem if you own it.  If upgrade price is $400 every 1.5 year that is same as $16/month.
    4) Adobe, do you think to be the only one making these softwares?
    Competition is always a factor in market.
    6) After all this mess, you discriminate Europeans, too?
    Taxes charged by Governments and municipalities are not controlled by Adobe.

  • Can applications in Creative Cloud be installed on a Windows Vista operating system?

    Can applications in Creative Cloud be installed on a Windows Vista operating system?

    Your question is answered on the Adobe website on each individual product's page.
    Bottom line is that, no, Vista is not a supported operating system for CS6 applications.
    All support Windows 7 and Windows 8. Some support Windows XP to varying degrees.
    None officially support Vista but some users have reported success in running them on Vista.
    Your best option may be to download the Master Collection CS6 Trial and see how it performs for you.

  • Can't get adobe reader to install on my new laptop with windows 8

    I can't get adobe reader to install onto my new laptop with windows 8. Basically what happens is that I start the download from the adobe screen by clicking the yellow download button, then I click run (I've also tried save and run), then I allow the program to make changes to my hard drive, and then finally a blank grey box appears in the in the middle of the screen, titled "adobe reader installer". After this box appears nothing else happens. I've let it sit for at least 30 minutes and still nothing. I've also disabled my pop up blocker, and set the security settings to default as suggested in other posts. Unfortunately this is the only pdf program that works for the site we have to use to write contracts, so I need to get this figured out asap. Thanks in advance for any help and advice.

  • Creative Cloud Desktop install crashes Windows Explorer and hangs

    This all started with my inability to activate Adobe Acrobat on my computer after wiping the hard drive and reinstalling the OS.
    I had no trouble initially downloading or installing anything from the Adobe Creative Cloud. I ran several apps and they worked (albeit in trial mode for a day or two)
    And then the Initial Problem: Trying to Activate Adobe Acrobat failed to get pass the sign-in screen.
    It would hang for about 30 minutes and then come back to the error that the computer's clock must be incorrect or an error with the Internet connection. (It's a standard error documented on Adobe's site that says you need to make sure your computer can really get to all of Adobe's activation servers/sites/etc. I double-checked everything in the troubleshooting list to be sure but found nothing wrong with the computer or the ability to get to Adobe's sites.
    Exasperated. I went online for tech support. It was definately Level 1 support (had me checking all the stuff I had already spent an hour checking - and had already told him I tested it all).
    Anyway, I spent an hour on the chat with Adobe Tech Support going through the usual stuff.
    He had me check virus programs, computer clock, conenctions to Adobe sites (like the licensing servers). But nothing ever helped or worked. Then he told me to try going directly to the Adobe Creative Cloud site and trying to download and install the Creative Cloud desktop manager. I did that but it hangs when it launches the manager on the initial window with a black/grey Creative Cloud bar at the top (with the tool drop-down on the right side) but the rest of the window never loads.
    After an hour of going in circles I decided it would be better to try again later with someone in second-level support.
    In the meantime, I uninstalled ALL Adobe applications. There is no Flash-Player, no Acrobat Reader - nothing from Adobe in my programs list.
    I then tried to download and install the Adobe Application Manager. It works up to the point where it launches the Creative Cloud Desktop tools and then hangs at the same place.
    There is a Creative Cloud window with the normal black/grey bar at the top - but the rest of the window (where you would normally see and load the apps from) stays empty.
    I have rebooted the computer several times to be sure it is a fresh start. That has not helped at all. One additional thing I have noticed in these multiple attempts is that when the Creative Cloud Desktop Manager installer gets about 95% done, it causes Windows Explorer to crash (not Internet Explorer but Windows Explorer). Once Windows Explorer resets, Creative Cloud continues the installation but then opens the window (above) that has nothing but the black/grey header.
    I'm struggling for what to do next. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Right now I am paying $50 a month for something I can't even install or use.
    For what it's worth, the system is an HP laptop running Windows 7 Ultimate x64. 8GB of RAM and plenty of HDD space. All security updates applied and Symantec Endpoint Protection 12.1. I doubt that any of that last line is relevant since I could run all of this with no problem before wiping the hard drive AND it was all running with no problem - other than Activating Acrobat at the start of this whole issue.

    Jim,
    You are a lifesaver! I can't think of how many additional hours of frustration you just saved me - but Thank You!!
    After posting, I had determined (like you said), that Explorer must be doing that for a reason. I created a new user profile on the system (added a user temporarily) and observed the same behavior of Windows Explorer (stopping/starting) but then continuing to work as it should. At that point I knew the answer was somewhere in the user's profile but I would have had no idea where to look. The opm.db file was indeed the culprit.
    I sure do appreciate the excellent help.

  • Error A12E6 Creative Cloud Desktop Install

    Mac OS, 10.8.4, 16RAM
    I've tried every "solution" found: cleaner app, uninstalling CC desktop, creating a new admin user, deleting the OOBE folder, etc.
    Any help please?

    Hi Scott,
    My post may have overlapped your post. Thank you for your time. My problem has been solved. I'm glad your method worked for you. I recall seeing your fix somewhere and did try it without success. Thanks for posting! I do love how the Adobe user community steps up.
    In chatting with Adobe tech support, Saravana, who solved the problem, there was no need to disable security or go to root. I had already uninstalled Creative Cloud Desktop before my message.
    Saravana had me delete /tmp files first. That didn't work. Then we methodically renamed a few folders and deleted the Adobe Application Manager and a few Creative Cloud files...wish I saved the chat and then I could be more specific. Yet, others can just go to support chat and get the same help. I find this rather rare and welcome.
    Installed CC Desktop while still in chat and it worked! even though it showed none of my prev installed CC apps installed. However, installing them again worked just fine. Was worried that my Lightroom DB might not be found. It was. FYI: haven't install everything just yet as of this writing. Yet, AE, Photoshop, Illustrator, Audition, and Premiere, my mainstay apps launch just fine.
    I know that the transition to CC has caused a few problems and controversy. I'm a developer myself and understand this. Overall, I like CC much better than CS6 and before because of continual updates and a reasonable licence that allows the apps on my laptop and desktop.
    However, do desire that if I chose not to subscribe after a year (Ideally because I'm in Fiji or Bali after a good gig), that my old versions would continue to work as in the old days. My only pet peave, and would lobby for this kind of functionality from Adobe. Also, maybe some kind of fair licence for hobbyists/students other than the "elements" line. Many of those hobbyists/students have turned into valued collaborators even if they were running CS4 Creative Suite Student edition that they bought 3 years ago for $300.
    Best,
    Geoff

  • Creative Cloud Desktop Install Reaches 100% then Starts Over

    With Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop, it launches and logins just fine, detects my installed apps and shows updates and all apps that are not installed yet.  When I click Install on any app, it will download, then initializes the installer.  When the installation progress reaches 100%, it starts over again with the installation progress at 0%.  I have let Acrobat XI Pro go through 5 "installations" now and each time it reaches 100% then starts over.
    Steps takens already:
    -Rebooted
    -Reinstalled Creative Cloud
    -Deleted folder: C:\%AppData%\Local\Adobe\OOBE
    -Removed everything in: %temp%
    -Verified that my firewall policy is permitting all ports to *.adobe.com*/* and to *.adobelogin.com*/* (Per the Adobe IT Deployment article for URL's and Ports to allow)
    -Verified there are no packet drops during the "download" that could cause a bad installation
    -Verified my local security (Kaspersky) is not blocking anything Adobe related...but that does not apply since Creative Cloud is already installed and is an allowed process for all sub-threads
    Please help!
    Thank you
