Migrated to new computer - now Creative Cloud Desktop Application won't work

Hi,
After migrating to a new computer (Mac Book Pro running OS 10.9.4) I can't run any of my Creative Cloud apps. When I try to start I get a prompt to download and reinstall the Application manager. After the installation the Creative Cloud dropdown tray is completely blank with no applications list or sign-in fields, and I get the same prompt when trying to start an app.
I have tried the reinstallation several times, as well as removing the opm.db file but still no luck.
I'm completely stuck here, what more can I try?

Have you tried using the Cleaner tool before reinstalling? The problem might stem from the migration process - Adobe applications need to be installed, not transferred.

Creative cloud desktop application manager stopped working

I've been using CC for about 6 months with no problems. However, after updating Adobe Acrobat, the CC desktop app manager stopped working. I tried reinstalling it, and then running the Creative Cloud set-up, but that didn't work either. It looks like it's trying and then the set-up just stops. Nothing. No error message. Just won't work. I'm using Windows 7 Professional.

Creative Cloud desktop application Error 1

When trying to download the Creative Cloud desktop, it won't work and says Error 1

1) Uninstall Creative Cloud
2) Go to Free Creative Cloud | Download Adobe Creative Cloud free trial and install again.
3) Restart your computer after the installation and the problem will be fixed.
I was on a phone couple minute ago with a tech support from Adobe and by doing those steps the problem was fixed.

Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop App Doesn't Work Windows 8.1

The Creative Cloud Desktop App doesn't work on my PC running Windows 8.1. As shown below, no apps appear and the settings dropdown does not function with either left or right click. I have tried to uninstall, reinstall, change the name of the OOBE folder, connect directly to my cable modem by passing my router, removing all internet & firewall protection and I am unable to download any CC apps that I do not have on my PC. I have been updating existing apps from the help menus in the apps and have not used the CC app for downloads for a long time so I do not know when the problem started, but it does not work now. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Automatic updates are also not working.
Thanks,
Barry

Turning off "Enable Protected Mode" in the Security Tab of Internet Properties allowed the Creative Cloud Desktop App to function properly. I am still looking for a better long term solution that does not put my computer's security at risk.

Installation Error (7) Adobe Edge Animate - Creative Cloud Desktop Application

I would greatly appreciate help with this, I have scoured the adobe forumns and google and am unable to find a solution. I am trying to download Adobe Edge Animate from the creative cloud desktop application (PC) and it gives me this error
!Installation Failed - Learn More
When I click on learn more it says
Installation failed
Errors encountered during installation.(7)
More information
However the more information button does not do anything when clicked. I have had no problems installing my other application, updates and trials with the creative cloud desktop app.
I have ignored this issue for weeks but I have reached the point in a work project where I need to use the program. The Desktop application is up-to-date and I even tried disabling my firewall/antivirus but it made no difference.
Few other details:
I ran the adobe cleaner for CS6 programs before installing the creative cloud.
The program fails at 51% Installation.
Please please please help. Thank you for any information you have and any time you can dedicate to this issue I am having.

Thank you Jeff, I followed your directions and may have found the issue yet I do now know how to resolve it.
Some Background:
When I first installed the Creative Cloud Desktop Application a couple weeks ago I had my main hard drive partitioned into C: and D:.
Because of limited space of my C drive I changed the application install directory (in the Desktop App preferences) to D:. Despite this it was still installing all the programs to the C:/default path.
I had posted concerns about this on the forumn after trying restarting and reinstalling yet nothing worked. Despite it listing D: as the install directory it would not install there.
So finally I just decided to unpartition the drive back to only C: Prior to the unpartition I was transfering the conents of D to a seperate hard drive and I changed the preferences back to C: in the Desktop app.
As I was waiting for the files to transfer I decided to start a trial install (as the transfer was taking a while.) Pushing me over the line of frustration into amusment it then proceeded to install to my D: drive. At this point it was just doing the opposite of what I wanted. Regardless I continued with the unpartition and all the applications I have downloaded installed fine since then to my new larger C drive.
When I looked into the error log for the Edge Animate I noticed this

This issue just wont leave me alone.
As I mentioned before the install directory has been set back to C since before the unpartition and all the other programs have installed fine. Are there somewhere that secret preferences are stored? This is all the more unbelievable as I prior to reading your instructions I uninstalled the creative cloud desktop app, ran the adobe cleaner for any pre-CC applications as well as a registry cleaner and reinstalled the Desktop App and tried again.
Thank you very much for directing me to the reason for the error, can you help me figure out why the CC Desktop App is doing this?

Looking forward to download Adobe After Effects CC from Creative Cloud Desktop Application. But why most of the apps appear to be in CS6?

I installed the new copy of Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop Application, and looking forward to download Adobe After Effects CC. But why most of the apps appear to be in CS6? - Including AE. Only few appears to be CC.
Thank you.

Creative cloud desktop app won't let me sign in

The Creative Cloud desktop app hasn't worked for at least a week now on my Windows 8.1/x64 machine. I've been trying to get Adobe Muse, but until tonight, the app only showed the creative cloud banner and a white screen. I uninstalled and reinstalled it twice without success. PhotoshopCC works and appears to be signed in, and I was able to sign into the website but if I try to download Muse, it just brings up the blank Creative Cloud application.
So I signed out of Photoshop and wasn't able to sign in again -- it said my password was invalid. So I requested the password change email, got that, followed the instructions, and it said my link had timed out and to request the password change link again. So I did that and this time I was able to change my password. The Creative Cloud app is still all white.
So I signed back in using PhotoshopCC and that finally worked. I also signed into the website. I killed the Creative Cloud app and restarted it. This time, it thought for a bit and offered me a login. But whenever I log in, it immediately says
You've been signed out. Please sign in to continue.
Endless loop.
What gives? I see a lot of complaints and a banner on one page that says "service has been restored". It clearly hasn't.
Any ideas? Is this still an Adobe glitch? I sure hope Adobe offers a service credit for this frustration and lack of ability to work.

I can honestly tell you that Tech Support does not want to hear from me right now... I'm pissed, frustrated and ready to yell at somebody over the phone about my bad day that Adobe created for me.

Creative Cloud desktop application does not load properly under Windows 8.1

I'm having a very strange problem with the CC tool too.
When I open it I just see an empty box with a smaller dialog inside it showing the icon. It won't close and I can't interact with any of the windows. The only way to get rid of it is to kill it via task manager. I've tried the "rename opm.db file" hack and this makes the CC app ask for my Adobe credentials as though its going to work, but then ends up showing the same thing. I've attached a screengrab of what's happening. Windows 8.1 FWIW.

Branching this to a new discussion.
NPotter.UK please make sure you are using version 1.2.1.260 or later of the Creative Cloud desktop application. You can find more details at Creative Cloud desktop missing text | Windows 8.1 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/creative-cloud-desktop-missing-text.html.

"You've been signed out" error every time I try to sign into Creative Cloud desktop application.

I keeping getting a "You've been signed out" message everytime I try to log into the Creative Cloud desktop application.
I have tried the following to no avail:
Uninstalling and reinstalling the Creative Cloud app.
Renaming the OOBE folder to OOBE-old.
Deleting everything in the SLCache.
All of the above were suggested either on these forums or by support. None have worked.
I am on a team membership.
I am currently using Adobe Creative Suite CS5.5.
I am on a Mac running Mavericks (OSX 10.9).
Nothing seems to be working and I have been passed from department to department on the support chat window thing.
Someone, for the love of God, please help.

CM_Martketing and MikeBanks are correct, but I think what is confusing some people is that they are mistaking their Mac HD for the user name. I kind of had to mash up 2 posts to get it right:
1: Open Activity monitor from spotlight and end all Adobe related processes. You may find processes like AAMupdater, AAMupdater notifier, Adobe Crash demon process.
2: Open Finder and navigate Macintosh HD/Users/[your user name]/Library (the library folder might be grayed out, just right click and select open)
3: Now navigate to Application Support/Adobe/OOBE/.. folder.
4: Delete opm file under OOBE.
5: Rename OOBE to OOBEold.
6: Check if you have AAMupdater in the adobe folder.
7: Please rename it to AAMupdaterold.
8: Click on gear icon on Creative Cloud desktop app and choose Quit Creative Cloud.
9: Then launch it, sign-in and click on Apps tab.
It worked perfectly! Thanks everyone, I've been trying to figure this out for a month!

Applications missing from Creative Cloud Desktop application

If you are unable to locate a specific application then it is likely the computer you are using does not meet the current system requirements. In the following example you can see that After Effects and Premiere Pro are missing from the list of available applications.
When I look at the System information for my Windows installation I am informed that I have a 32-bit version of Windows 8.
This means that I will be unable to install Premiere Pro or After Effects as my current computer does not meet the minimum system requirements. You can find a list of Creative Cloud system requirements at Adobe Creative Cloud – Tech specs.
For additional information please see Not all apps displayed for download | Creative Cloud desktop app, Adobe Application Manager.
If you have confirmed that your computer meets and exceeds all of the listed System requirements then please see CC desktop lists applications as "Up to Date" when not installed.

Hi Jeff,
I have a lot of problems. First og all the system will not accept my account and even I have downloaded CPLauncher and can see the software, I will not genereate password. Nothing works, and if do not, I have to stop paying, because my boss are a little angry.
He says: We pay and it do not work. Find other software. We can’t afford you sitting doing nothing. If Adobe makes such a software that causes us trouble, we will change to something else, we do not need Aobe for our projects.
So Jeff – The software are very complicated, it can run, It can’t genereate license, and on top of all this, I have to defend Adobe. Well – I will not. I have been fighting in 3 weeks and this week is the last. Monday morning I will stop using Adobe coud and stop my membership.

Does not complete processing of "Home" of the Creative Cloud desktop application

Someone know the way to fix the following issue?
After installed some Creative Cloud Software, I had uninstalled Adobe application manager manually and installed Creative Cloud desktop application manually. because automatic upgrade of creative cloud desktop application from adobe application manager does not work.
The creative cloud desktop application setup had been completed successfully. but, seems that it does not complete processing of displaying the history if I chose "Home". The progress Icon will stay in continuity. And any contents does not show on it.
Regards,

I'm posting this in a few threads to try to catch everyone having the problem.
The good news is that I found a way to fix this.
The bad news is that it involves uninstalling everything. (Note that reinstalling over the old installs won't cover it, I'd tried that one once too. You'll have to fully uninstall each program before redownloading/reinstalling.)
I spent many hours with tech support yesterday running through options unsuccessfully, and can very thoroughly assure you that uninstalling the desktop app, renaming any number of folders, and new user accounts all will not help you. From doing a lot of research on various similar problems, it appears that it's possible for this to spontaneously resolve within a couple of hours. If it doesn't, though, you're stuck with fixing it yourself.
The best theory I found was that it's caused by updating or installing a program without doing it through CC. If you've downloaded an installer and run that or clicked "Check for updates" in the help menu inside one of the other apps, this is you. Other people have noted that if you know which app you did this with, you can uninstall that one to fix it. If you have no idea, the simplest path is to just uninstall everything. You can try doing things one at a time, but you'll need to reboot every time the uninstaller tell you to do so and then see if it's fixed. (Personally, I got sick of that by the second time through.) I do remember clicking "Check for updates" right around the time this started for me, but I don't know which program it was in, just that I knew it would trigger the updates I knew existed but CC wasn't acknowledging.
I will also note that once I had everything uninstalled, I ran the Cleaner Tool and did a "Clean All". If you're going to or need to do that, make sure you've backed up all of your preferences, customizations, plugins, and so forth as needed.
