Illustrator CC shows up as being installed in the AAM but is not

The Adobe Application Manager - or Creative Cloud panel - Shows Illustrator as being installed (green arrow checked "up to date" ) - but I cannot find it anywhere on my system - no Shorcut - no registry entry - not in the default install location under program files of other Adobe apps - cannot find in search
I opened control panel "Programs and Features" to Install/Uninstall software - clicked on illustrator cc to uninstall the app - Opened a dialogue and very quickly "uninstalled" the not installed app
Still in Adobe CC panel
Does not show up in control panel > "Programs and Features" anymore
Where can I download the Executable or msi install file??
I really like to purchase software and install it.
-------------------------- the following is a rant ---------------------------------------
Are you trying to follow the Apple philosophy to make things more "user-friendly" by hiding fucntionality. That might be fine for beginners - but you are making experienced and more technical advanced users frustrated by your dumbed-down approach.
I have moved away from all apple - products and hardware because of this, since it takes control away from advanced users and also is an indication of a company trying to enforce their one-fits-all approach and owner-ship of customer behaviour.
I took me months to decide to upgrade from cs5.5 to cs6 because of the published adobe change in it's approach to deployment of it's software. The fact that you are charging the rest of the world (Australia, etc..) 33% more for the same product is also an ongoing issue
I am also in a process of surplanting Adobe tools with alternatives - After Effects <-> Nuke, Premiere <-> Vegas, Illustrator (you killed of freehand which where far more advanced than Illustrator) <-> Xara, Corel... , Photoshop <-> I do not have a great alternative for it but Canvas, Corelpaint, Gimp, Sketchbook are contenders, Dreamweaver <-> Haven't used it in years because of over focus on bloted adobe JS libraries and not enough support for coding and bad WYSIWYG - using PHPStorm and tools in Chrome, Director <-> Well that ship sailed when ADOBE attacked Macromedia and through aggressive lawsuits over patents that caused the death of Director by funds being cut in it's development and marekting, Flash <-> The adobe brand with it's bad behavior and over-reach (via postscript) in the early 90's started a war with Apple that resulted in the death of this very promising platform - now we are back in the stome-age with HTML5 and a miriad of JS-libraries, no decent hardware accelerated gfx, etc...

Thanks for the help Jeff - Restarting helped.
Jeff, my rant is not directed at you as an employee of ADOBE - your prompt feedback is appreciated and will aleviate some of the antagonism I feel against ADOBE because of the business unit's decisions with litlle regard of the user's buying and using the software.
Shareholder must understand that if they try and force the hand that feeds them too far, it will stop.
I love what the software engineers are doing with the software and appreciate the individuals whose job (ADOBE employees/help desk sub-contractors) it is to try and assist, but, ADOBE’s image is tarnished in my eyes by their new subscription policy they are forcing on end-users.
So many great technologies have been killed of or completely missed an oppertunity to evovle to greatness. (Director, Freehand, Flash, Flex, etc...)

    You might want to try resetting your router and your modem - just unplug the cords, leave them unplugged for about 3-5 minutes and then replug the modem and then the router in that order.
    This may or may not correct your problem - call back if it doesn't.

  • My playlists show how many titles are in the playlist but does not show the list of titles

    my playlists show how many titles are in the playlist but does not show the list of titles. Is there a setting that I hit by mistake to hide the content?

    Perhaps you have made one column extra wide and the window isn't currently showing the Name column. Try resizing columns, turning off those that you don't need, or scrolling sideways.

  • I am using both PSE 13 and Lightroom 5.  When I use Lightroom as an external editor and save the photo, it shows up in PSE13 as an edited file but does not look any different.  Why doesn't it appear edited?

    I am using both PSE 13 and Lightroom 5.  When I use Lightroom as an external editor and save the photo, it shows up in PSE13 as an edited file but does not look any different.  Why doesn't it appear edited?

    People who have Photoshop, but don't have Lightroom, need ACR so that they can use Raw files. Without ACR they could do nothing with those (they may also like having ACR so that they can work on other kinds of image using the same kinds of adjustments and techniques, as are used with Raw files).
    People who have Lightroom, can get access to Raw files regardless whether ACR is present or not. They can use Lightroom on other kinds of image also, using the same methods. LR can pass images directly into Photoshop without passing via ACR (or else does so transparently, which amounts to substantially the same thing).
    ACR does not, strictly speaking, even need to be installed for this external editing to happen. In fact, not even PS needs to be - since a different image editor can be used instead, while still retaining the Adobe Raw conversion etc.
    Lightroom "subcontracts out" specialised external tasks, in this workflow, but is still your "main contractor": the image is otherwise located, viewed, managed, adjusted/presented and output entirely using LR.
    So IMO we can divide image processing into:
    operations that involve pixels and layers and layer masks and adjustment layers etc (of the kind done inside Photoshop)
    operations that involve parametric edits (of the kind done in ACR where you are not using a Lightroom based workflow; otherwise, done inside Lightroom)
    When PS is called in, that's because those tasks are impossible or unsuitable to do in Lightroom. But those tasks can't be done in ACR either - by definition, since LR and ACR have exactly the same image processing "feature set".
    Lightroom is irrelevant to the Bridge + ACR + PS workflow. This workflow requires both your PS and your ACR to be current enough, to support your Raw format etc.
    ACR and Bridge are irrelevant to the LR + (image editor) workflow. It is in this case, only LR which needs to be current enough to support your Raw format etc.

  • My iphone will not sync to itunes. It will connect to the computer but will not show up anywhere in itunes. PLEASE HELP!!

    My iphone will not sync to itunes. It will connect to the computer but will not show up anywhere in itunes. PLEASE HELP!!

    Hey there Kellee,
    It sounds like the device drivers for your iPhone are working in Windows, but the phone is not showing in iTunes. You should be able to get that showing again with the steps in this article:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1538
    Start with these three steps, and there are more in the article if you need them.
    1. Update iTunes
    Check that you have the latest version of iTunes installed on your computer. In iTunes, select "Check for updates" in the Help menu.
    2. Check the USB cable
    Verify that the 30-pin to USB cable or Lightning Connector to USB cable is free of debris and not damaged. If another cable is available, test with that cable instead.
    USB cables that are bundled with third-party products or accessories might support only charging those products (and not transmitting data) or they might work only with the product with which they were sold. Using one of these cables to sync could cause issues. If you are using a third-party case, such as an extended battery pack, try removing the case and connecting the Apple-supplied USB cable directly to your device.
    3. Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
    iOS devices require Apple Mobile Device Support, which should be automatically installed with iTunes. To verify whether it is installed, follow the steps appropriate for your Windows operating system below.
    Windows XP: Click Start and choose Control Panel. Open the "Add or Remove Programs" control panel and verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is visible in the list of currently installed programs.
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: Click Start and choose Control Panel. Click "Uninstall a program" (or if using Windows Vista's Classic View of the Control Panel, click "Programs and Features"). Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is visible in the list of currently installed programs.
    Windows 8: Move the cursor to the upper right corner, click the magnifying glass, type Control Panel,and press Return. Click "Uninstall a program". Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is visible in the list of currently installed programs.
    If Apple Mobile Device Support is not listed, remove iTunes, QuickTime, Apple Software Update, Apple Application Support, and then reinstall iTunes. Follow the steps appropriate for your Windows operating system below:
    Reinstall iTunes for Windows XP
    Reinstall iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    If after reinstalling iTunes Apple Mobile Device Support is still not installed, follow steps in Trouble installing iTunes or QuickTime for Windows.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Regards,
    Sterling

  • SQL patch mismatch: Installed in the PDB but not in the CDB - how to correct?

    I have a 12.1.0.1 database in which I wanted to migrate a number of PDBs to AL32UTF character set. To do this I created a second (temporary) database with the correct characterset, unplugged and re-plugged each PDB and ran the DMA U to migrate the PDBs - all went well.
    I then dropped the first database and built another again with the correct characterset.
    When I unplug and replug the PDBs from the temporary to the new database I get the following PDB violation:
    PDB_ACPT_CLONE     SQL patch 19648840 mismatch: Installed in the PDB but not in the CDB.
    This patch had been applied to the original database and then rolled back before the temporary and new databases were created.

    Are you sure all PDBs were open when the patch was applied?
    The more common issue is when one version of Apex is installed in the root and a different version installed in a PDB and the PDB is plugged in.

    Thanks

    It is not possible to create a new iCloud account using a Windows machine. You must create the account using a Mac (10.7.5 or more) or an IOS device (iPhone etc). Once that is done you can sign into and use the account on your Windows machine.

  • Trying to make a disc.img from an iMovie project get the mssage that some of the audio clips are not available. The clips still show as green bars in the project but do not play.

    I successfully made a disc.img and then burned a DVD of the project but found an error in a title. Went back to the project, corrected the error, and tried to create a new disc.img but got the message that some of the audio tracks were unavailable. They still show as green bars in the project but do not play. Tried deleting and reinstalling them with no success. They do play in iTunes and in the iMovie editing pane
    Thank you

    ... The goal is a ScrollPane that automatically wraps the text inside it. I've just about got it, but I have one thing that's not working. If I just put the JTextArea{s} in as the Editor, then you lose the any text that doesn't fit inside whatever the initial size was. Instead, I put the JTextAreas inside a JScrollPane which works fine, except that I still have to determine the size of the JScrollPane in advance. I would like to make each Editor/JScrollPane start out with just a single line of text and expand until it reaches a certain small number of lines.

    }OP, your code was too long and complicated for me to compile and run. However, aren't you forgetting the two simple methods <tt>JTextArea.setLineWrap()</tt> and <tt>JTextArea.setWrapStyleWord()</tt>? Furthermore, I absolutely see no need for you to extend SWING components for demonstration this simple -- that is, if I understand your problem correctly.

    how do i sync apps to my iPhone 4S using itunes without losing aps already installed on the phone but with a different apple ID, and i dont have the apple ID??

    How have you managed to get apps on your phone that are tied to a different and unknown AppleID?
    If these apps were not purchased by you, having them is effectively software piracy and you should purchase them using your own AppleID if you want to keep hem.
