Skip the Application manager - get the Trials

I spent most of last night fighting with the Application Manager. Sometimes it would download, or not. Same with installation when the package was already downloaded. There was no consistency in which apps it would or wouldn't finish. I was able to finally get them all installed, but it took a while. Choosing "retry" would sometimes work. The Application Manager also gave my system a Kernel Panic. Twice.
Suggestions I've tried:
- the font deletion method
- the cleaner app
- the Disk Utility preferences change
- restarting the system
- repairing disk permissions
None of these worked.
The only thing I've seen in working in these threads is to skip the Application Manager and download the Trials, activating with your Creative Cloud Adobe ID. If this is the only full proof way to do this, why even bother making / using the Application Manager. The other method is what retail and business users use and seems to work fine.
Even though I finally have everything installed I'm downloading the trials in case I need to do a re install in the future. Maybe by then Adobe will have worked this out. I like the simplicity of the Application Manager but in practice it's ineffective.
Setup for reference:
edit : added nots about Kernel Panics.

It's OK. Stop the download, and try another trial download (choose the same language  you've ordered!) manually.
Don't think there's any download limit !

    I've noticed that lsmod | grep agp gives me this output:

    That module is motherboard dependent or VGA dependent?

  • How do I get the trial version for Photoshop CS6 extended from the Creative Cloud Trial

    Hello ...
    Plz I wanted to downlad the trial version of Photoshop CS6 Extended and I followed this link
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop&loc=en_us
    Then I chose this option : Option 2: Join Creative Cloud and download now (Recommended - it's free)
    Then the adobe application manager has been installed and the photoshop CS6 started to be installed automaticaaly and after it done , I found it the standard version not the Extended ... So how and where can I get the Extended version for both 32 bit and 64 bit?
    Your prompt reply is highly appreciated
    Thank you ....

    So if you download the trial from the trial page at http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop you get Photoshop CS6 Extended.  When you then remove the trial and reinstall from the Adobe Application Manager with your trial Creative Cloud you only see the Standard version?
    If this is so you can try reviewing your installation logs by following the steps listed in Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.  Although your 30 day trial has already begun.  I would recommend for now you just remove the installation and install from the trial page so that you can try the extended features.

  • In Windows 7 I mistakenly un-installed Adobe Application Manager and all applications (CS3E, CS5 and Elements 6) have disappeared from programs on the start menu

    WIN7: Mistakenly un-installed Adobe Application Manager and now all Adobe apps (CS3, CS5 and Elements 6) have disappeared from the programs list in the start up menu.
    CS5 Bridge is still there so I can get into the photo editor to de-activate it and re-install.
    However, all of CS3 has disappeared so I cannot get into it to de-activate.
    Question 1: Will downloading and re-installing Adobe Application manager get CS3 automatically back?
    Question 2: If not, what to do to get CS3 back things working properly again? Remember, I can't de-activate it.
    Thanks and have a happy day!

    Don't worry about activation unless you are installing on a new and different machine. Simply reinstall in order. It should all work.
    Then install any updates. Product updates
    After that, let me know how it went and if there are any further questions.

  • Acrobat XI Pro brings up Adobe Application Manager in Danish, then quits.

    I can't even select "Accepter" and then it quits Acrobat.
    I have a full creative cloud membership. Why is application manager getting in the way ?
    All of my other Adobe apps are working fine.
    I have tried uninstalling Acrobat Pro then re-install. I have tried uninstalling all of Creative Cloud then re-installing.
    Same thing every time.
    I open a .pdf. Acrobat Pro Starts then after ~10 seconds Acrobat quits & the Application Manager comes up in Danish. I can only select "Afslut" (quit).
    No I am not Danish & yes I have checked the language settings are correct in CC.
    There was some issue with Application Manager that requested to update to V8. I tried that and still the same.
    Please help. My work is dead in the water without AcrobatPro. Iv'e tried Adobe but can;t even get through.

  • Uninstall Adobe Application Manager

    Ever since I downloaded Adobe Application Manager my computer has experienced major problems.  My windows explorer has all but stopped working, random notices that my copy of windows is not genuine, and I cannot edit anything in word without the application freezing.  This only happened after the installation of Adobe  Application Manager.  I have run Malwarebytes and SuperAntiSpyware several times and no problems or threats were found.  I also checked safe mode and windows explorer was functional in safe mode.  I have run serveral chkdsk upon restarts and no problems have been found?  I have also tried to restore computer to previous settings without sucess.  I can not find how to uninstall the Adobe Application Manager.  I am using Illustrator CS6 and do not want to uninstall this if at all possible.  Any suggestions?

    Hi Geologyrocks,
    Sorry to hear about your difficulties. Adobe Application Manager gets uninstalled automatically when you uninstall all of your Creative Cloud (CS6) products. Its definitely odd that this all started happening around the time you installed Adobe Application Manager. I haven't heard of others reporting the same issue. I have it installed on several computers myself and haven't experienced this personally. If you wanted uninstall it I would recommend uninstalling all CS6 first and then it should get removed automatically, you could run the Adobe Cleaner Tool afterwards for good measure. So you would need to uninstall Illustrator CS6.

    When you go to reinstall I would ensure all Windows updates were installed, close all open applications at the time (including your anti-virus software temporarily)

  • TO NOKIA SUPPORT: Application Manager Memory issue...

    There is a STRANGE memory issue with Application Manager and Nokia N80 device. It's present in both N80 and N80IE and tried with Firmware versions from v3.x to lastest v4.x one.
    When you have installed many programs, tested with more than 150 counting SIS plus JAVA, Application Manager gets unusuable reporting continuosly "Memory Full - Please close apps..." and you can't do anything with it...
    This issue happens even after starting device without any resident app loaded and 14 Mbytes of free RAM so I think this is a limited memory issue available for Application Manager
    A curious thing is that you can Run and Enter Application Manager and installed App list is showed but not complete, it list all the SIS files installed (I think it start to list that type) and then the JAVA ones is cutted and dont appear the full list of installed apps of this type.
    Another curious thing is that if you uninstall a SIS app and Run again Application Manager the list is filled with one more app of JAVA type so this sound like a MEMORY ISSUE or deliberating restricting number of app listed?
    Perhaps app listing could be stored in a temp file and partially loaded in pages so memory don't get overheaded... :-?
    Today with 1 or 2 GB memory cards, this is a SERIOUS ISSUE.
    Please, could you confirm this and point me where to report this issue so it can be solved in future firmware updates?
    Many thanks in advance.

    So hope i.I'm preparing a bug report to post here.Maybe with our reports the new firmwares will be even better...if some Nokia guy is looking at what we're speaking

  • InDesign and Adobe Application Manager

    Adobe Application Manager gets lost everytime I exit from Adobe InDesign CS6. Why? Everytime I open InDesign again for another session, it will not load and will only give an error message that I need to install Application Manager when actually, I already have installed it previously on my computer.
    Please help. Thanks!

    That still doesn't address what's causing the problem to begin with, though.
    I don't have a lot of faith in AVG, but I haven't heard of anything like this associated with it. Any other background programs running? Any third-party plugins installed in any Adobe programs?
    It might tell us something if you create a new user account and try running ID from there.

  • How to get rid of Application Manager? Don't need to buy the Cloud. Photoshop is no longer working.

    Hi
    I am an existing LR4 and CS6 customer and downloaded the "Application Manager" a while ago which asked me to do a trial of the cloud. I actually never got around to using anything cloud related except Photoshop (which I already own) and the trial ended a few minutes ago. Now I can't seem to get into Photoshop anymore and am in the middle of doing wedding shots due in a couple of days. My only choices were to buy the cloud or exit. How do I get rid of this annoying Application Manager? I tried the applications/utilitiesd/adobe installers folder, but the only choice was to unintall Photoshop only. This is so unprofressional of Adobe I can't believe it. Help.

    OK ..fixed the problem (after spending an hour with tech support with no luck, I posted a note on Juliiane Kost's Facebook page and got a response from Adobe which works great). Anyway, go to this blog post from Adobe's Jeffrey Tranberry .. http://blogs.adobe.com/crawlspace/2013/01/photoshop-13-0-413-1-2-updates-now-available.htm l . Essentially when you get asked to purchase after the trial ends, click the license button and enter your original serial number from your purchased version of Photoshop. Then you will once again be in Photoshop, run the update and you are good to go.

  • The Adobe Application Manager doesn't work, can't download trial software.

    I'm on a Mac, trying to download a trial of Acrobat Pro X, and as I hit download, it launches the Adobe Application Manager. Once it's launched, it keeps spinning the blue-gray squares round and round and nothing happens. Is there a way to directly download the file and install it manually?
    Cheers,
    Rita

    Ok, I tried and it has begun the installation.
    The first time, before I got to the end, it said 'The Adobe Application Manager is already running.'
    I was asked to quit, but there was no quit button, so I Force quitted it.
    Then I started the installation process again, and now I get this error message:
    The installation cannot proceed, because some of the processes are running.
    Do you have any idea what I'm doing wrong?
    I quit all Adobe products.
    Thanks for your attention.
    Regards,

I reinstalled the manager but I am still unable to launch any of my programs from adobe. I tried to do a trail with a program and I am still getting the same message.

    Davinci thank you for the update.
    Please utilize any available uninstallers that are located in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder.  Once all of the available uninstallers have been run you will then want to rerun the CC Cleaner Tool.  You can find directions on the use of the CC Cleaner Tool and a download link at Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.  After the CC Cleaner Tool is run then please reinstall the Creative Cloud Desktop application from Creative Cloud Help | Creative Cloud for desktop.
    The CC Cleaner Tool is designed to be used after running the uninstallers.  Without running the uninstallers first then a complete removal may not be possible.
