Standard user cannot use creative cloud

The most recent creativecloud update made it so that my users can not use CC. Adding them to local administrator group fixes this.
I only have 8 workstations to worry about so I never bothered with the packager and deployment tools. I thought maybe that would fix the issue by installing the applications through a package, however when I try to install a package I create the installer gets hung up.
Will installing the CC applications work with this method and standard users? If so how do I get these packages to install? I created them with the creative cloud packager, did the exception deployment first (Acrobat Pro) and then ran the setup found in the build folder and it gets hung up at the above screenshot. I left it for over an hour like this on a high end machine running a SSD.

Here is the help article for when you are mistakenly prompted for a serial number: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/ccm-prompt-serial-number.html. Did you purchase an English-only subscription by chance? If so switch the language to International English.
If your subscription is not English-only then you can close the Creative Cloud app, remove the file the OPM.db file and launch then try to sign in. Here is where the file is on your system:
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.

Adobe ID - cannot use creative cloud just bought

Please please someone help.
I have spent a fortune ringing the US support number from NZ and the chicken and egg nightmare continues.
I was forced to create a new Adobe ID when I signed up yesterday to Creative Cloud. I now live in NZ but old ID was in the UK.
I was told I have to keep the old ID for my existing products and the Cloud subscription will remain on the new ID.
I get an email saying that my Creative CLoud is activated and to verify my email address in order for it to start to work - this came thru on the OLD ID email.
I go into both Adobe ID profiles and see that the Creative CLoud service that I have already paid for does not appear on either ID !!!!!

This reply is no use as the chat option is not available to me in NZ.
I rang the call centre today (is in India) - it took 60 mins to get an answer.
I was told they would transfer my software to my new ID and ensure Cloud subscription works on new ID I bought it with.
What has happened is that my new ID has been deleted instead, so I now have no Cloud subscription either. Stuck - completely. Every call to Adobe, very expensive and takes hours and results in situation getting worse and worse.
Please help!

Cannot use Creative Cloud in new Mac after using Migration Assistant

I used Migration Assistant to set up my new Mac (new computer is a Retina MacBookPro; so was old computer). I could not open any of my CC apps. When I open Creative Cloud Desktop App it is completely blank (no tabs for Apps, Fonts, Files, etc. -- No means of installing or updating apps). I uninstalled Creative Cloud and reinstalled (several times) but got the same results. I have also deleted all the Application Folders for CC apps that cam ever with Migration Assistant.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Mac migration does not always work with Cloud programs
Uninstall... run the Cleaner... Restart your computer... Reinstall

How can I allow standard users to update creative cloud without admin rights.

I have over 300 users in a domain environment and I cannot allow them to have admin rights on the machines.Is there a Registry hack or key that we can adjust to allow CC to update without these rights?

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 a new Indesign user and a Creative Cloud member. I was using the Window/Pages drop down window to view my pages alphabetically or by page number and also to determine whether or not my JPEG files were sufficiently HI-Res for the printer. I don't know how I did it but somehow the window has changed so that now it does not have the alphabetical/numerical/Hi-Res information. It just shows the pages in a two page spread in numerical order. How can I restore the window so that I will be able to view the information as I did previously.
Your help will be appreciated,

User agreement for creative cloud

Part 5.1 of the user agreement for creative cloud, which deals with adobe's intellectual property/ copyrights uses the word "materials". Since this section deals with "Adobe Materials" I think that reference to "Materials" may have been in error and should be replaced with "Adobe Materials". Thank you

Jennifer which End User License are you referring too? The Creative Cloud EULA can be found at http://www.adobe.com/products/eulas/#creativeCloud. Section 5 though is referencing updates so I believe you may have referenced a different EULA?

I cannot download creative cloud app

I cannot install Creative Cloud or download new CC applications. What is the fix?

I cannot install Creative Cloud or download new CC applications. What is the fix?

I am on Windows 7 - 64bit.
I can not download the new Creative Cloud App from online in the Download Center.
When I try to by clicking on download, it opens the old Adobe Application Manager and Creative Cloud is not there to chose to install.
I was able to install most of my CC applications through the Adobe Application Manager.
I am unable to get Acrobat installed though. The Adobe Application Manager will download Acrobat Pro XI and extract it, but it has a little yellow ! sign that says Installation Failed.
If we can get the new Creative Cloud app installed, maybe I can get Acrobat Pro XI installed afterwards.
When I click the yellow error sign it gives me a web page with the following message:

How do images embeded in InDesign link when using Creative Cloud on more than two desktops?

How do images embeded in InDesign link when using Creative Cloud on more than two desktops?

If I am understanding your question correctly, you shouldn't have to worry about embedded images in InDesign. Once embedded, the image is stored within the file.
If you are wondering about linked images... InDesign will follow the path on your computer and, if it does not find the image, you will recieve a notification. Edit: To prevent this, I would suggest packaging your file using File > Package... This will create a folder with all of your fonts and linked graphics so that you need not worry about broken links. I just remembered that you cannot upload folders directly to Creative Cloud so a packaged folder wouldn't be very helpful unless you wanted to upload each file manually.
The best solution I see right now is to either embed the graphics in the document, or upload the images with your document to relink.
I hope this helped,
Michael

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?

Can I use Creative Cloud on multiple Macs?
