SAngye.IJ are you currently logged in under a restricted account?  If not and you are logged in under an administrator account then it is likely the file permissions under your current User account have become compromised.
I would recommend reviewing your installation logs to determine the location where the file permissions have become compromised.  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.

  • When i drag and drop an image on my site. it gives the following error. "Unable to access local files due to browser security settings. To overcome this, follo"

    I am using the firefox version 17 and when i drag and drop an image on my website. It gives me the following error.
    Unable to access local files due to browser security settings. To overcome this, follow these steps: (1) Enter "about:config" in the URL field; (2) Right click and select New->Boolean; (3) Enter "signed.applets.codebase_principal_support" (without the quotes) as a new preference name; (4) Click OK and try loading the file again. Or go to the homepage for a link to the tutorial on how to do it.
    I have completed the above steps and it is still showing the same error message. Any help would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Thanks kumars ,
    I have a specific drag and drop area on our website. This works fine for all earlier releases of Firefox after these security settings
    "(1) Enter "about:config" in the URL field; (2) Right click and select New->Boolean; (3) Enter "signed.applets.codebase_principal_support" (without the quotes) as a new preference name; (4) Click OK and try loading the file again."
    Bust these settings not work for me in Firefox 17.
    Yes the drag and drop functionality is java script based and i am not using any script blocker addons.

    Hi  Serpent,
    Try the following Steps:
    open activity monitor and close all Adobe related applications
    navigate to: /Library/Application support/Adobe
    In that directory you will see a folder named OOBE - Rename that folder to OOBEold
    Navigate to: MAC HD /Application/Utilities directory
    In there you will see a folder called "Adobe Application Manager" - delete it

  • I cannot download the new update - Error code: 43

    I cannot download the new update - Error code: 43 -- what does that mean?

    Hi Arjun,
    From the cc app the preferences option is greyed-out, so I'm not able to sign out and in... yes I'm aware I'm able to update from the app directly.  The issue I found in the past is when I updated Lightroom from Lightroom itself, the cc app did not see it as being updated... still saw it as the earlier version.  So the app said there was an update and I was trying to go into cc to perform the update instead of the app....
    Would be interested in hearing more about the error 43 from Adobe...
    I'm attaching two screen shots, one of the error and the second of the greyed-out preference option.
    Thanks,
    -Erik

    Hi ...
    If you have anti virus software installed, you need to disable that in order to download apps.

    Hello skiier4life,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    To troubleshoot this issue where you are receiving error 8003 in iTunes when trying to download content from the iTunes Store, please follow the troubleshooting steps in the article linked to below as error (-50) is the same as error 8003.
