Please Help- Forum Solutions Don't Solve Blank Creative Cloud Desktop App Problem!

I'm using Windows 7 and simply want to download a trial version of InDesign.  I downloaded the Creative Cloud desktop app and it's blank.  Thinking I still need to do more on the Adobe Creative Cloud web site I went and clicked on the download under the InDesign icon there.  It says it's downloading but there's nothing shown on my screen to indicate that's the case- and sure enough nothing is actually being downloaded.
I have tried several times the solution mentioned in other posts, restarted my computer but nothing makes the Creative Cloud app appear anything but blank.
Can anyone tell me what's going on and what I need to do to download a trial of InDesign?
Thanks.

Thanks very much for the link.
I systematically implemented each of the recommended fixes:
-  Verified I'm connected to the Internet (obviously)
-  Verified I can access secure sites
-  Checked "hosts" file, verified I have access to activation servers for CS6 or later (but not for not CS5.5), but in attempting to reset the hosts file, did not find any references to "activate.adobe.com.  Here's what I saw:
-  Verified that the GlobalSign Root CA certificate is enabled ("enabled only for the following purposes") and did not change any of the checked boxes in the list.
After taking all these steps, the situation remains the same- blank Creative Cloud App.
Any further suggestions?
Thanks again for the assistance!

  • Creative Cloud Desktop App Manager still does not work - HELP?

    Using Windows 7, have Adobe subscription, cannot get the CC desktop Application Manager to work under any circumstances! This is driving me crazy, paying for the subscription, cannot update any programs, because I cannot access anything. I urgently need to finish a job where I have previously used a font I have in my typekit - but of course I cannot access the typekit so cannot get the font - this is urgent.
    Can someone please help - I have uninstalled all reference to Creative Cloud Desktop App, restarted computer, re-installed. Nothing, uninstalled everything - changed OOBE folders in both locations to _old, restarted, reinstalled, nothing. Uninstalled again, ran the CC Cleaner Tool, option 3, option1, renamed the OOBE folders, restared Windows, ran exe file again. Failes repeatedly. Comes up with a blank white space, blue wheel spins a few times then stops, and stays like that. If you click in the white space, then it just goes black!!!
    Where to now!

  • Creative cloud desktop app blank - Mac

    Hi,
    I have been experiencing the issue with a "blank" screen when logged into the Creative Cloud Desktop. I've tried uninstalling & reinstalling the desktop app multiple times and still no screen or visible apps. Also, I followed the instructions in locating the OOBE folder... I was unable to locate the file suggested to change even after making all hidden files visible. In my recent attempt to locate this file the entire OOBE folder has been deleted (I am unable to locate this folder anywhere on my computer or trash) and I am still experiencing the "blank" screen when logged in. How would I go about fixing this all across the board? Would I need to reinstall all of adobe and its apps? Any assistance would be appreciated.

    Hi Kandee_Leigh,
    Please try below steps:
    1> Uninstall Creative Cloud Desktop app. (http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html#Uninstall apps)
    2> Navigate to the OOBE folder:
    Mac OS: ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE
    Note: The <user account>/Library/ folder is hidden after OS 10.7, follow the instructions here to access it: Access hidden user library files | Mac OS 10.7 Lion
    Mac OS: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE
    rename OOBE to OOBE.old
    Then install Creative Cloud from below given link:

    Please, let us know how it goes.
    Thanks & Regards,

    Tried to uninstall, with intention of reinstalling but when I used the uninstaller a popup notice says that it is uninstalled but with errors. No more detailed info of errors either.
    Please advise.
    Thank you.

  • Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop App Window Blank, Windows 8.1 (Resolved)

    Platform: PC
    OS: Windows 8 (8.1)
    I needed to download Flash, so I searched for my Desktop Application Manager.  Opened the Creative Cloud App, and saw this:
    I waited for it to "load" but nothing ever loaded.  I clicked the gear to see if I could log out and log back in, but just saw three practically useless options:
    [Help, Pin to Notification Area..., Quit]
    I waited 2 hours for customer service, and finally got this answer:
    Launch the run window. (press: window button, type: "run" OR window button + X, select "Run")
    Type %appdata%
    You'll see AppData > Roaming, click AppData in the address bar.
    Open Local > Adobe > OOBE
    Cut opm.db and paste it to the desktop.
    >>If you receive an error, open the task manager and close ALL Adobe processes, then retry.
    Open Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop Application
    Log in. (ta-da!)
    Delete the file that you cut and pasted to the desktop.
    I hope this helps someone avoid the long wait time for customer service to fix this error that seems to have sprouted after some update corrupted the opm.db file.

    1.  quit the app (from the task bar) and relaunch.  if that fails:
    2.  Remove the OPM.db file and relogin into the Creative Cloud desktop application using the Adobe ID tied to your subscription.
        Mac OS: You can locate the OPM.db file in the \User\<user name>\Library\Application Support\Adobe\OOBE folder. To access the hidden user Library folder, see Access hidden user library files | Mac OS 10.7 Lion.
        Windows: You can locate the OPM.db file in the \Users\<user name>\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE folder.  To view the hidden AppData folder, see Show hidden files, folders, filename extensions | Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7.

  • Why is my Creative Cloud desktop app telling me I don't have any apps installed, when in fact I do?

    Just noticed this forum so thought I'd post my question in here too...
    So, I [think] I just downloaded the latest CC desktop app/manager and when it finished etc and opened up, it's now telling me that I don't have any apps installed. I do, I have PS, AI, InDesign etc etc etc.
    Why is the new desktop app wrong all of a sudden? Why isn't it recognising what apps I have downloaded on my computer?
    I've just installed PS 2014, expecting it to tell me 'you've already got this on your computer' but it didn't, I just carried on with the install as if I didn't already have it [it doesn't appear to of doubled up]...why isn't it 'synced', what am I missing?
    Thanks in advance

    uninstall your cc desktop app, clean and reinstall per, http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html

  • Received message to reinstall Creative Cloud desktop. Tried 3 times; won't install. Help.

    When I restarted my MacBook Pro, a Creative Cloud pop-up displayed on my screen that says " Adobe Creative Cloud is needed to resolve this issue. However, it is missing or damaged. Please download and install a new copy of the Creative Cloud from <link>."
    I've download it three times now. Each time after I click install, the progress loads half way and then displays the same message above each time.
    I've rebooted my laptop as well; to no avail. Please help. thanks.

    Moving this discussion to the Creative Cloud Download & Install forum.

    In order to use your Apple ID to create an iCloud account, the primary email address associated with the ID must first be verified.  To do this, Apple will send a verification email to your account and you must respond to the email by clicking the Verify Now link.  Make sure you are check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox.  If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.

  • Since I have Yosemite on my iMac I can't view PDF files in Safari anymore.  It keeps telling me to upgrade my Adobe Reader, but it is the latest version.  Please help?  I don't have this problem on my Macbook that does not have Yosemite installed.

    Since I have Yosemite on my iMac I can't view PDF files in Safari anymore.  It keeps telling me to upgrade my Adobe Reader, but it is the latest version.  Please help?  I don't have this problem on my Macbook that does not have Yosemite installed.

    Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk icon.
    Step 2
    There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
    Step 3
    If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    and check the box marked
              Allow Plug-ins
    Then click
              Manage Website Settings...
    and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
    Step 4
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
    Step 5
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others—I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
    Step 6
    Do as in Step 4 with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.
