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,
Rita

  • Just completed a clean install of CS6 Photoshop on my Yosemite Mac Book Pro and the Adobe Application Manager does not work and cannot install a fresh copy from Adobe

    Just re-installed a fresh copy of CS6 Photoshop on my Yosemite Mac Book Pro and somehow the Adobe Application Manager does not work and therefore cannot verify my copy.  What should I do?
    I get a message saying that Adobe Application Manager may be damaged and that I should install a new version of AAM.  But after downloading a fresh copy of AAM and doing the install, the program (AAM) still will not install.  It is like an infinite loop!
    Please, someone help!
    Thanks!

    HI gener7!
    I'm sorry but I am not on Creative Cloud.  I'm still on CS6 and it was the Adobe Application Manager that wasn't working and I could not install the update to this application.  My AAM version is:  8.0.0160
    The link you provided was the update that I wanted to install but it does not work.  A window shows up during that install that says:
    We've encountered the following issues.
    Installer failed to initialize.  Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem.
    and then the link to the Adobe Support Advisor which leads to a "Adobe Support Advisor has been discontinued" page.
    Thanks!

  • Adobe Application Manager doesn't work

    We have bought two licences of the Creative Suite, but only one of these is ok. For the second one, when the user accepts the invitation of administrator and starts the download of  adobe application manager, he can only download the trial version and not the full version like the first licenses

    Refer to this:
    Sign in or activation errors
    And naturally make sure the e-mail addresses used match exactly.

  • Creative Suite 6, Adobe Application Manager doesn't work.

    When I lunched AAM, the error message is:  "There is running another instance of Adobe application Manager program. Please close the another instance" How can I solve the issue ?

    You have to provide system info and otehr details. Other AAM instances would only be active if you ran updates on your apps or invoked some otehr online feature from within the programs.

  • Adobe Application Manager hangs on installation, can't download any CC

    I just upgraded from CS 5.5 to Creative Cloud (I'm running OSX 10.6.8). When I try to download the programs from the "apps" page of creative.adobe.com, the download manager opens and then hangs on the "updating Adobe Application Manager" screen for several minutes before saying "The remote server is not responding in a proper manner. Please retry after a few minutes." I contacted support (case number 0184298932) and they suggested using the Adobe Cleaner app to delete the App Manager, then download the App Manager from the general Adobe download page. The App manager opens but says it can't connect to the servers. Support also said to create a new admin account and retry the process. That had no effect.
    I followed Robert L. Brown's advice in this forum post http://forums.adobe.com/message/4399026#4399026 and was able to actually launch the application manager and download Indesign and After Effects. I tried to download Photoshop, got an error, quit the installer, and when I tried to reopen it I was back to my original problem.
    I have seen other posts in the forum saying to download the trial versions of CS6 and then authenticate with my adobe ID, but I can't find a download link for anything that's not Creative Cloud. There are no CS6 trials to be had anywhere.

    For anyone else with a similar issue, it turns out that the company firewall was blocking the download. I just connected the computer to a different network and now the download is working like a charm. Fingers crossed that it works when I fire up the program!

  • Trying to install Acrobat on a Vista laptop, but can't find the installation icon in the Adobe Application Manager

    Hi, trying to get Acrobat installed on my Vista laptop but can't seem to find an icon for it in the Adobe Application manager.  I have a CC license and it installs fine on my Win7 but can't seem to figure out how to install it on my Vista laptop.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

    Normally if something does not appear in the download options it means the machine does not meet the tech specs for the product.  In this case, Vista is not in the tech specs for Acrobat Pro XI if that is what you are trying to install.  For whatever reason it skips from XP to Windows 7.

  • Can't launch applications from the Adobe Application Manager

  • Can not update- message says you are already running the adobe application manager - but it is not open

    I'm trying to update Indesign and Photoshop.  I get a message saying that the Updates could not be applied - you are already running the Adobe Application Manager - but I have closed everything.   It may be related to the fact that today, about every 2 minutes, Adobe Creative Cloud Connection pops up.  I have closed it numerous times, but it continues to open.

    Terminate the process(es) in Task Manager/ Activity Monitor.

    Hi Shotgun981,
    Adding to what Jeff & Sheena shared, have you got any other product installed on this machine? Is that working fine ? Can you please navigate to the below mentioned location and advice if that worked for you or not.
    Library/Application Support/Adobe/SLStore
    Rename the above mentioned folder to SLStore_old and try and launch Acrobat . If this doesn't work , please make sure that we have full permissions on the folder mentioned in the kb article. (Note: this Kb article is only for sharing the location and the actual problem is not described in it)
