Unable to uninstall cs6 beta version due to Adobe Application Manager error

A few weeks ago I installed the beta version of cs6 but never was able to run that program due to the Adobe Application Manager error I received each time I attempted to launch it.  I never found any solutions on the internet so I just gave up.  Recently I purchased Photoshop cs6 anyway, however, in order to install cs6 you must uninstall the beta version of cs6.  Unfortunately Windows 7 will not uninstall the beta version.  Each time I click on uninstall, nothing happens.  Until I can uninstall the beta version, I will not be able to install my newly purchased Photoshop cs6.  Does anyone have any suggestions or solutions?

Run the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool. The tool can clean up install records for any pre-release (beta) installations of these Creative Suite products.

  • CS6: Adobe Application Manager - Error A12E1

    Hello,

    System: Windows 7 64-bit
    Software: CS6 Production Premium CS6
    I have tried the following:

    Renamed the C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE folder, and tried all methods above.

    Previous to this, CS6 was uninstalled, cleaner tool ran, and re-installed.
    Any and all recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks!

  • Please help! My CS6 won't open and Adobe Application Manager keeps popping up to renew CS Cloud subscription.

    Hi there.
    I recently canceled my CS Cloud subscription about 3 weeks ago and went back to using CS6. I was using CS6 Creative Suite without a problem until 2 days ago. Now my CS6 programs (AI, Photoshop, InDesign, Acrobat) won't open. Instead the Adobe Application Manager keeps popping up to renew the subscription, see below insert.
    I have chatted with Adobe customer support numerous times but when it comes to transferring me to their technical support, the chat mysteriously becomes unavailable. The only time the transfer went through, I was advised to remove CS6 Creative Suite using Cleaner Tool and reinstall, which I did but my CS6 still does not open and the AAM keeps popping up giving me the same message to renew the subscription. The AI/Photohop icons just keep bouncing up and down without opening while the AAM pops up.
    What can I do to stop this annoying AAM from popping up and open my CS6? I just want my CS6 to open up again. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Please help!

  • Photoshop CS6 - Problem - Do I need Adobe Application Manager?

    I just installed Photoshop CS6 - a fresh, new install, i.e. no previous CS version installed.
    Accidentally I clicked on  Adobe Application Manager in Start and got the below.
    Right now, I only have a clean desktop - no taskbar and need to use the taskmgr (ctrl-alt-del) to bring up my webbrowser or any other program that was and is still running.
    Luckely I made a Windows image just before installing CS6 so I will restore that image and will start all over.
    Now, I donot need creative cloud, also I don't know what this 'Application Manager' is being used for.
    Question:  how to avoid similar issues? Is this application manager necessary?
    Thanks!

    The application manager provides activation and online features, so no, unisntalling is not an option or else your Adobe software would go defunct.

  • Can't update programs:  "Unable to apply updates You are already running Adobe Application Manager. ..." HELP!

    So, I try to update Photoshop CC 2014 Camera Raw patch, install Fireworks CS6, and InDesign CC, but get this error on my new MacBook Pro:
    The only instance of AAM that is running is the one that opens automatically when I click "Updates" in the PS Help menu. I've also tried it from the AAM widget at the top of my screen.
    And before solutions are presented:
    I have closed down EVERY instance of AAM first.
    I have opened the Activity Monitor to make sure that nothing of Adobe was running in between each update attempt, just to make sure.
    I have force quit everything Adobe that was running in between each update attempt, just to make sure.
    I have tried it two ways:
    Opened Photoshop, Clicked "Updates" in the Help menu, chose the update for "Photoshop Camera Raw 8.5 (CC)", clicked "Update" and still get the error.
    I have quit Photoshop, ran Activity Monitor and checked Force Quit...launched the AAM Launcher Utility, See big red button at top that says "1 Update", click button, Click 'Update', put in my password, update still fails with same error.
    It's a freaking loop of frustration!!! There is no end. It keeps telling me to close "ALL" instances of AAM, but there's not other way to apply an update for it. I try and just keep getting the same an error! Uggh! Someone please...PLEASE help!

  • 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!

  • If I Uninstall the Beta Version & Install Firefox 36.0 , will my Add-ons & Bookmarks be retained ?

    I downloaded the latest version 36.0. If I uninstall the Beta version, what happens to my Add-ons & Bookmarks?

    If you uninstall the beta, just be very careful that you don't check the box that says "Remove user data". If you leave your data then you can then just open up Firefox release and your data will be there.

  • I cannot uninstall Namoroka beta version 3.6.3

    I've tried to uninstall Namoroka beta version 3.6.3 and the uninstaller bugged. Now I have half an installation that I can't fully uninstall, which is pretty annoying.
    I think if I could get a link to download and re-install the 64 bit version of Namoroka 3.6.3, maybe I could repair my installation and attempt a new uninstall.

    Just delete the Namoroka program folder if the uninstaller doesn't work.<br />
    You may need to use a registry cleaner or edit the registry yourself to remove (orphaned) Namoroka registry keys.

  • Unable to install the latest version of Adobe Muse via Adobe Application Manager

    I´m a user of Creative Suite applications  and all of them have been updated successfully with the exception of the latest version of Adobe Muse.
    I´m unable to install it. I get error DW 050
    I´m using Windows 7 64 bit.
    All previous versions of Adobe Muse have been installed OK.
    Following a forum discussion I could read, I uninstalled the previous version, but the installation fails again.
    Does any body know how to solve this issue?

    Dear Sachin:
    Thank you for your help, however I have to get back to you to inform that after  downloading the new package based on the link that you´ve provided, I´m  still unable to execute the application.  I get the message: “block by the administrator”  and also another message: “the editor of this program is unknown and unsafe”. Please note that all other programs from Adobe´s Creative Cloud have been downloaded and installed with success. All Adobe Creative programs have been installed on my computer several months ago and all are working fine so far.  This morning I installed an update for Photoshop without  any problem. It seems that the problem persists only with Muse. I have to highlight that I´m the administrator of my PC and therefore all applications are currently being executed as administrator. I have never had the intention to block any program, including obviously Adobe´s Creative Suite programs.
    Could you please let me know how to splve this problem?
    Michael.

  • How can I download InCopy CS6 trial version in the Adobe Download Assistant?

    There's no selection of the application for InCopy CS6 trial version in the Adobe Download Assistant.

    That is correct.  Once the Adobe Download Assistant is installed you will need to initiate the download from http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=incopy&loc=en_us.  If this is not working for you then please utilize a different web browser.

  • When uninstalling an older version of reader, I get an error message about transform paths

    I tried to uninstall version 8.1.2, and I get an error message to verify that the specified transform paths are valid. Some body please help. I could use the 90mb of space it's taking up.
    My system is a laptop, vista 32 bit. No security update issues are involved. I am running version 10, and simply want some memory back.

    Claudia, thanks for the link. It removed the old version in about 30 seconds Microsoft Fixit looks like a great repair tool. Thanx for the hook-up. Redbaron8.

    If you feel you need erasing 90 MB. I would suggest getting some additional storage medium (external HD, ...). In any case, you may want to try the following: Run this fix from Microsoft: http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall Uninstall Reader using Add/Remove Programs

    My Bridge CC opens in a locked mode - I cannot make any changes (dump cache) - it says "other instances of Adobe Application Manager are running, which must be closed." I have to force quit Bridge to get out of it. I tried to uninstall Bridge and re-install it but it did the same thing. Any ideas where to go next?
    The fact that I uninstalled Bridge and reloaded it has me concerned as to what to do next.?

    You need to force quit all other (real or fake) instances of the Application Manager.  Instructions differ between Mac or Win.
    A lot more information about your hardware and software is needed.
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
    such as your platform (Mac or Win),
    exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CC", but something like CC2014.v.2.2) and of Bridge,
    your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
    the type of file you were working on,
    machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
    what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
    what error message(s) you receive,
    if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
    if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
    a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
    etc.,
    someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).
