PDF format.aip: missing plugin using Creative Cloud

Hi,
I just purchased Adobe Creative Cloud and after saving a project on Adobe Illustrator CS6, I tried to open the program again and an error message is coming up, "Missing required plugins. PDF format.aip."
I checked the plugin folder and it is in there, yet I cannot open Illustrator.  The other Adobe programs work, it is just Illustrator.
Does anyone know how to fix this so I can open Illustrator and get to work.  Thanks so much!
Also, I have an iMac.  Thanks.
-Phil

I had the exact same thing happening to me with Illustrator and Photoshop, moved the .app files by mistake to some different folders and then when trying to open it I got the PDF Format.aip file missing error. I restarted it, didn't work, tried to replace the file with a fresh one, didn't work. In the end I moved the .app files back into their designated folder and both Photoshop and Illustrator opened straight away. No need to re-install them.

  • Illustrator missing plugins PDF Format.aip  Were is it?

    Any one!
    When I try to launch illustrator I get an error saying it is missing plugins PDF  Format.aip.
    I am unable to get the program loaded it stops loading altogether.  I have tried reinstalling the program as well no luck.
    I am on  a PC with Windows XP needed to replace hard drive and do a new reinstall of Adobe CS4.
    Everything is updated and installed fine.  Photoshop and others work fine   Just Illustrator.
    Did search on the net not much help there can any help here!
    I can not even find a plug in called PDFFormat.aip!!
    Why would Illustrator need a PDF plugin?
    Any suggestions!

    It might just be a permissions problem you have to manually fix it on the windows platform but it should read on all the directories dow to the file itself
    like such
    that is where it says Sharing and Permissions you can on the PC find it in the properties panel I believe. On the mac control or right click on the applications icon, folder and file to get info.

  • Can I use Creative Cloud for students on more than one computer at the same time?

    I get different info when I read about how I could use creative cloud.
    Somewhere it say I can install and activate on two computers but only run the applications on one computer at the time.
    On antother place I read that I can use the applications on two computers at the same time.
    So what is correct?
    Can I install and activa Creative Cloud for students on my PC and my Mac and also run the applications on both computers at the same time?

    I already gave you the info you seek, but you don't seem to want to accept it.  Here it is in writing from Adobe's EULA (find it at: General-terms)
    "4.1 Subscription-Based Software License.
    If we provide the Software to you as part of your subscription to use the Services, then subject to your compliance with these terms, we grant you a non-exclusive license to install and use the Software: (a) in the Territory, (b) so long as your subscription is valid, and (c) consistent with these terms and related documentation accompanying the Software. “Territory” means worldwide, but excludes any U.S. embargoed countries and countries where you are prohibited from using the Software or the Services. You may activate the Software on up to 2 devices (or virtual machines) at a time, if these activations are associated with the same Adobe ID for the same individual, unless stated at http://www.adobe.com/go/activation. However, you may not use the Software on these devices simultaneously."
    You appear to want to believe that because you think you have a way of getting around the agreement without being caught it would be okay to do.  You are bound to the agreement if you purchase the subscription.  Do you understand what intentionally (and with fore-knowledge) failing to honor a contract constitutes?

  • We have two users that have been using Creative Cloud for almost a year. Recently, sometime in the last 4ish weeks, the users can no longer run Creative Cloud apps. (Yes, our subscription is paid.) Error simply says administrator access is required

    We have two users that have been using Creative Cloud for almost a year. Recently, sometime in the last 4ish weeks, the users can no longer run Creative Cloud apps. (Yes, our subscription is paid.) Error simply says administrator access is required to install. The apps have already been installed. The users cannot run them unless they are in the local admin group.Using "Run as admin" does not work. It gives the same error.
    I have opened a case with adobe support and was basically told to suck it up and put the users in the admin group. Actually, what was said was that it is "mandated that the users have administrative rights". 
    There are a couple of things wrong with this. It was working for both users until recently - a recent required creative cloud update. The users have never been local admins yet the apps were working (poorly, but working).
    We are in an enterprise environment and users simply do not have administrative rights on the computers.
    I have changed permissions on all adobe folders, granting users or authenticated users modify or full control rights, did the same in whatever Adobe registry HKLM keys I could find. Nothing has allowed the users to run the apps - unless they are put in the local admin group.
    Someone has to have a fix for this. Adobe apps have proved to have far too many vunerabilities to even entertain the idea of elevating user rights. I can't imagine that enterprise environments are allowing this.
    Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

    Jeff,
    Thank you for your response. The users in question are "standard" domain users. We do not reduce users permissions below the standard level.
    The apps do not load with their current standard user permissions.
    The thing that makes this odd, is that up until recently they did this issue with cloud apps. The only way I can make it work for them now is to put them in the local administrator group on their pc's - which is not going to happen.
    This is what they now see. As I said before, this was not a problem up until recently they would see all their available apps. If I put them in the local admin group the apps are listed without having to install. Everything is there, just not accessible to the user.

    I am work in a company where we are using Creative Cloud for teams. Recently I've been doing some work from home, but on CS6.

  • Is it possible to use creative cloud online with both Mac/windows system (on the same computer, bootcamp) without paying twice ?

    Hello, I work with a Macbook pro, divided into mac and win 8 (with Bootcamp), is it possible to use Creative Cloud subscription with both system without paying twice.
    Bonjour, J'utilise un Macbook pro partitionné Bootcamp mac et windows 8, est-il possible que l'abonnement à Creative Cloud en ligne fonctionne indifféremment dans les deux systemes (sur le même ordi), sans payer deux fois.
    Merci,
    jho

    Your subscription allows for two functioning installations (normally on separate machines, but I imagine you could install the two as you indicate).

  • Is is possible to use creative cloud as a shared volume for collaboration between incopy & indesign?

    I'm a designer student and as a designer, I constantly have to make decks for presentations.  I typically work in a group of six and because I'm confident with graphic design, I tend to be the leader of these tasks.  I've found the best workflow for slide creation is Indesign.  Unfortunatly, I'm just an awful writer— so when I heard about Incopy's collabrative features(saw the post from indesign's facebook page) I saw oppertunity and got very excited.  My teamates and I typically all have subscriptions to adobe cc because of this, I was wondering (since I havent used it at all) if the storage given out from adobe cc was able to be that shared volume that is required for the live link between incopy stories and indesign layouts.
    Therefore,
    Is is possible to use creative cloud as a shared volume for collaboration between Incopy & Indesign?
    If this needs any further clarification I'll gladly write a more detailed question — lastly, if this is not possible might you suggest an alternative?  Please assume that we go to school together but we work offsite also.

    You will not be able to use the Files page at https://creative.adobe.com/files for collaboration in this way. But you can share individual files in this way.
    When folder sharing is available this will be possible.

  • Looking into starting a business using creative cloud and business catalyst

    Hi,
    I am just looking for a bit of clarification on a few things. I am looking at using Creative cloud and Business Catalyst for a new business.
    Firstly, if I have both a Mac and a PC, will one creative cloud subscription allow me to install on both?
    Secondly, with Business Catalyst if I am wanting to make more than 5 websites, do I have to use the partner plan? or is this just if I want to make comission? Basically can I pay individually for subscriptions to more than 5 sites on behalf of customers without paying the initial partner fee while I am starting up? Obviously long term the partner option makes sense but short term for start up it would be useful to just sell the adobe subscriptions without earning comission. Hope this makes sense?
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks
    Adam

    Hi Adam,
    I'm very happy to hear that you want to start a business using BC and Creative Cloud - this is one of the goals of our integration.
    To you first question, yes, you can install Creative Cloud on both your machines.
    To your second question - you don't need to be a paid partner while you're starting up. You can remain a free partner, and just buy supplemental websites from the Partner portal. You're right, you won't get the comission, but it's a pretty good deal anyway.
    If you're starting up, I also strongly recomment the BCGurus "Zero to BC Hero" training program - not only they explain you the BC product, but they also include a lot of great business insights on running a web agency
    Sincerely,
    Alexandru

  • Receive error 21 when trying to install lightroom cc 2015 using creative cloud

    On trying to install Lightroom CC 2015 using Creative Cloud I receive error 21.  Any ideas what to do??

    I have the exact same issue. I had a trial of Lightroom 5 installed, and whenever I then tried to install Lightroom CC (2015) it would fail at 42% with an error 21. Logging out and back in of CC desktop got it to install successfully and then Lightroom 5 was marked as "Start Trail" again.
    Now though, whenever I try to start Lightroom CC (2015) it shows the start splash screen and then closes straight away and doesn't start. The "Continue Trial/Purchase License" screen then appears, and closing that out does nothing.
    I've tried logging out and back in to CC desktop, and restarting, but neither option fixes the issue. I even tried logging out, restarting then logging back in again. Still no joy.
    As a side note: Lightroom 5 in CC desktop doesn't show an uninstall option - it says "Uninstall Unavailable". Both Photoshop CC and Lightroom CC do allow for an uninstall option though.
    I'm on Mac OSX 10.10.3
