Hello wiggering,
You could force the application to quit via Force Quit under the Apple menu.

  • How do I open the updates window in "Adobe Application Manager"?

    How do I open the updates window in "Adobe Application Manager"? Or can I or should I....??
    I am a brand new Cloud member.  I heard of the Retina update.  Assuming this was where the updates would logically appear I went to the "Adobe Application Manager" app first.  Without closing the "Adobe Application Manager" I opened Photoshop and went to the help menu and selected "Updates..."; a second window opened in the already open "Adobe Application Manager".
    I selected update all.
    The result is below:

    Now, I closed the "Adobe Application Manager" and opened "Photoshop" again and again selected "Updates..." from the help menu.  The "Adobe Application Manager" opened again with just one window this time and the updates happened correctly.
    I was hoping one of the updates would be to the "Adobe Application Manager", I don't think so.
    So, If I were you I wouldn't select "Updates..." from an Adobe app unless the "Adobe Application Manager" is closed until they fix it...
    Current version: Adobe® Application Manager - Version 7.0.0.128 (7.0.0.128) Note the Two windows in the "Adobe Application Manager" in the attached image.

    The updates are currently available by going to Help>Updates within the Application.  Once you invoke the Updater, which is a component of the Adobe Application Manager, it will locate and apply the updates.  It looks like most of your updates have failed to install.  I would recommend you begin by trying to apply the updates that are available on our product update page at http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/ and seeing if you face the same difficulty.
    If you continue to experience problems with applying the updates then please review your installation log to determine the cause of the failure.  You can find details on how to locate and interpret the installation log at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.

  • When trying to download ipodreset utility for windows i get a message that says the installer is intended for 32-bit version for windows. what can i do next?

    when trying to download ipod reset utility for windows i get a message that the installer is intended for 32-bit version of windows. what can i do?

    I assume you have tried everything here?
    iPod: Cannot restore or update in iTunes with error 1415, 1417, 1418, 1428, 1429, 1430, 1436, or 1439
    It doesn't mention 1442, but the same troubleshooting applies.
    It wouldn't hurt to also try another available USB port on your machine and another sync cable if possible.
    Lastly, try restoring the iPod on another PC or Mac running iTunes.
    If you know of somebody with a PC running Windows XP still, ask them if you can download the reset utility and use it to reset the Shuffle.

  • I cannot update CS 6, Adobe Application Manager cannot be installed and doesn´t work

    I have CS 6 installed on my Windows PC (Windows 7). It worked for a long time. Now I cannot update the Programm. At first I get the message "update failed, please download a new Version of the Adobe Application Manager". When I did it and tryed to install the application Manager, I got a new message: "Installer could not be initialized. Please download the Adobe support advisor to identifie your Problem." But the Support Advisor has been closed by Adobe and I cannot download the program. What can I do now? (please sorry for my bad english).

    Thank you very much. That helped me and I can update my CS 6 again.

  • Cannot get Acrobat to install, Adobe Application Manager is not working!?

    How do I get Acrobat to install properly? Each time I try, I get the Adobe Application Manager:
    cannot select anything in the upper drop down. and if I click accept….nothing happens!

    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)

  • Hi All - Cannot See Adobe Edge/Animate in Adobe Application Manager?

    Edit: Have just figured out that this is down to this machine's OS being Windows XP.
    Hi All,
    I am to get to use the release version of Adobe Edge, having had a couple of the pre-releases.
    I have signed up for Creative Cloud, downloaded and ran the application manager, however I cannot see Adobe Edge/Animate anywhere.
    Am I doing something wrong?
    Thanks!
    See pic:

    I think your AAM is not updated.

    Try to install the update now and check.

  • Cannot install Adobe Application Manager

    When I install this, I first get an error saying another instance is already running.  The installation then proceeds and goes through the motions installation but at the then, I get an error saying "Adobe Application Manager failed to install".  I've combed through my Windows Task Manager for things like "PDApp.exe" and "setup.exe" but I couldn't find any.  I have a bazillion processes running and I don't have time to go through each one trying to figure out which is the right one.  How do I install the Application Manager?  It seems like all the CC apps needs the updated version of Adobe Application Manager in order to install.

    Problem resolved.  I called the 800 # and spoke with a technical support person in India.  The steps to resolve were to rename the directory paths (2 of them) that pointed to the old Adobe Application Manager, then download the Adobe Cleaner Tool and use it to remove the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop App.  I logged off and then logged back in and re-downloaded the Creative Cloud Application manager and I was able to download (finally) Photoshop CC.
    The old Adobe Application Manager came with my CS6 installation.  It was probably running but it did not show up in the Windows Task Manager as either an application, process, or service.  It also could be be uninstalled through Control Panels without having to remove CS6 altogether.

  • Unable to install updates nor exclusive features; Adobe Application Manager damaged?

    I've acquired a Spanish student's subscription of Adobe Creative Cloud, and downloaded Photoshop CS6 Extended, Flash CS6 Professional and Illustrator CS6. However, I have two issues related to downloading updates:
    When I try to update or download an application, the Adobe Application Manager shows the message "Downloading error | Adobe Application Manager is damaged and it is necessary to resinstall it. Download it now or contact with customer's support."
    However I reinstalled AAM three times, but instead of reinstalling, shows the message "Updating Adobe Application Manager" and after the installation, running AAM again shows the same message.
    I cannot access to the Adobe Creative Cloud exclusive features of Photoshop and Illustrator, showing the application as if it was activated by a serial, and not by subscription.
    I am using a Windows Vista 32-bit operating system.
    Update: The version of AAM is 6.2

    I have the same issue, particularly with Pixel Bender 2.5, all the other upgrades get installed correctly without trouble but this one always fail, the message I get is the same one every time:
    Adobe Pixel Bender Toolkit 2.5 Update
      Installation failed
    Can you point me in the right direction? It seems to me that the patch is faulty.
    Thanks.
    Update 01/15/2011
    Here's another update on my issue with Adobe Application Manager, I just realized today that actually none of the available upgrades got installed. Although it only marks an error with Pixel Bender, other components such as Photoshop, Premiere and others aren't being upgraded either even when the program tells you otherwise, what I mean is that for example there's Photoshop 12.0.2 available for download so I click on "Update"; the files get downloaded and installed with no error message being displayed but when I check the software it is still version 12.0.1, the same is happening with Premiere and another one, can't remember which one.
    This is additional to the issue of Pixel Bender being unable to upgrade.
    Please advise,
    Thanks,
    David.
    Update 01/16/2011
    I tried to download all the available updates individually from the Adobe website, the only one that went through was Photoshop, but then when I double clicked it to install it the same faulty application manager launched and I got the same behavior than before, it runs the installation and displays a message that states that everything was installed correctly, yet there no upgrade performed.
    All the rest of the available downloads failed to mount.
    Also the speed for download is excessively low, I checked my connection and the issue is not on my end, but yours.
    This is starting to become very frustrating.

  • 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)

  • Identify which updates Adobe Application Manager refers to.

    Windows 7 64 bit, CS6.
    I seem to have the common problem of Adobe Application Manager pop-ups.
    It just tells me there are updates to be had, not which ones.  Then the Manager does not work (gets as far as 'checking', then freezes on the buffering sign.)
    There seem to be so many problems with this application that I cannot wade through the complications and lack of clarity as to what is CS6, what CC etc.
    I am happy to download updates manually (although the AAM still tries to load at times, then.)
    However, I need to know what it thinks needs updating.
    Is there some way to find out what needs updating?
    Or is it just totally faulty and there is nothing really to update?
    (I have found no Set-up.exe in Windows Vista/7: \Users\[username]\Local\AppData\Adobe\AAMUpdater\1.0\  but can't find which, if any, of the correction downloads is appropriate.)
    Thanks

    Well, sort of good.  Also bad.
    Having downloaded and installed the patch you suggested (despite its emphasis on the Cloud) my AAM did come to life and try to install.
    Photoshop remains 13.0.1.
    Camera Raw  is 8.8.0.397 - which, I assume, is DNG converter; the same thing?
    Extension Manager is 6.0.8.28
    If I try to check again, through Photoshop, the Application Manager shouts at me that everything is up-to-date and I checked it less than a minute ago.  (Not true - it's lying.)
    If I try to launch the Application manager on its own it tells me "Adobe Creative Cloud is needed to resolve this problem.  However it is missing or damaged. please download and install a new copy of Creative Cloud...etc."  Then it links to the relevant CC download.
    i.e. it was, as suspected, a Creative Cloud patch when I have no Creative Cloud.
    So what now?
    Hope to roll back (if that will work) and try a CS6 version? Where?
