Using Creative Cloud on a desktop in a rural area with no Internet access

I have a Creative Cloud subscription for my home desktop. I will soon be participating in a photography workshop in a rural area with NO INTERNET ACCESS. I don't own a laptop and will be hauling my desktop to the place we're staying. I know the software is installed on the machine and I should be fine with using it without online access, correct? Am I also correct in thinking it won't be "seen" as being used on a second computer because while I use it on this trip I won't have Internet access and therefore no IP address?

Hi there
The only thing that might cause you trouble is if your workshop is over a month long. While using applications downloaded from Creative Cloud, internet access is required once a month for a routine license check. Here's a snipet from the Creative Cloud FAQ:
http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/faq.html
Do I need ongoing Internet access to use my Creative Suite applications?
Because your Creative Suite applications are installed directly on your computer, you will not need an ongoing Internet connection to use them on a daily basis. However, you will need to be online when you install and license your software, and at least once every 30 days thereafter. The software will alert you when you need to connect to the Internet for a license status check.
A quick note: if the product is unable to verify your license at the 30 day mark, a 7-day grace period will begin. However, if you are not able to access internet within those 7 days, your applications will be blocked (Soucre: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4513667#4513667)
Regarding your second question - as long as you are using the same device you already have your applications installed on, you'll still only have one device registered to your account.
If you have any more questions, please don't hesitate to post here again.
Cheers!

  • When using Creative Cloud Library assets created in Illustrator why are the naming conventions I use not being pulled over into the Photoshop layers?

    I create the Creative Cloud Library asset in illustrator and give it a name such as "camera-icon". It shows up in my Creative Cloud Library pane in Photoshop as "camera-icon". When I use that asset in Photoshop the layer is randomly named "a56bd81d-d81f-4815-82b3-5795d410b527". Why is this happening? Shouldn't that layer resolve the name back to "camera-icon" so that when I extract files for use in my application the naming convention is correct. Right now I have to manually rename that layer again. Is this a bug or have I just not done something correctly?

    I think you have pasted the entire crash log. In case of such issues in future, please paste the error screenshot.
    Seems to be a permission issue. Lets follow the below suggestions:
    Solution 1: Rename the following folders on your machine:
    '/Library/ColorSync/Profiles/Profiles'
    '/Library/ColorSync/Profiles/Recommended'
    Solution 2: Rename the following files:
    '/Library/Application Support/Adobe/caps/Media_db.db'
    '/Library/Application Support/Adobe/caps/pdb.db'
    Make sure you dont touch caps.db under the same folder. Now run the installer again. Let me know if you need more help.
    Solution 3:
    Please Run following commands on terminal on the machine (this will remove the corrupt fonts and should allow you to run the installer successfully) -
    sudo mv "/Library/Fonts/ACaslonPro-Bold.otf" /tmp/
    sudo mv "/Library/Application Support/Adobe/SavedFonts/current/AdobeArabic-Bold.otf" /tmp/
    sudo mv "/Library/Application Support/Adobe/HelpCfg/de_DE/goURL_lr_photoshop_de.csv" /tmp/
    Please feel free to respond to this thread if you have any questions about the steps listed within the document.  If you could also respond with the specific error message you receive, It would be appreciated.

    I just changed computers: how do I now use creative Cloud on my new computer?

    Firstly, if you still have access to older computer, sign out of CC activation on that computer by going to any product>help>sign out. This will deactivate your activation on the previous PC.
    Then go to Creative Cloud Website and download the applications directly or download CC Desktop and downlad applications via that.
    If you do not have access to older PC and you are getting a message like "Activation limit reached", the follow the steps mentioned in this document:

  • Use Creative Cloud extract with .ai files

    I've been reading up on using Creative Cloud to be able to upload and interact with .psd files.  It looks like a great function for me to be able to interact with the developers I work with.  Only thing is that I design in illustrator.  Is it possible to use this in congestion with .ai files instead?  Or would I have to export my designs as .psd first? 

    Thanks for the quick reply!
    So I can convert from .ai to .psd - do you know if there are any issues with doing this?  Or is there a best practise at all?

  • Using Creative Cloud 2014 apps, but Creative Cloud 2014 desktop app never installed.

    I have been trying to solve this issue for months now. When I installed the 2014 update for Creative Cloud, my CC desktop app disappeared (the app that shows you updates and is a shortcut to all apps, etc). Now, applying updates and getting fonts is a real pain. Also, when I installed the 2014 update, instead of overwriting my current apps like it always had, it installed the 2014 ones and kept the old versions. This caused many issues when I uninstalled the old versions. However, I never uninstalled the desktop app, it just disappeared during the install of 2014. Is there any way to solve this issue besides uninstalled and re-installing all the apps? If that is the only solution, will is cause any issues with documents I am currently working on?

    Hi Srezler,
    Adobe CC-2014 is not an update but new version of the products that we offer to our customers that is the reason why it never deleted the older versions for you. While doing the update, Creative Cloud Desktop was never supposed to be removed from the machine and it seems like that it got removed may be because of corrupt installation ( Could be because of download corruption).
    I suggest lets follow the below steps and suggest if this worked for you or not and accordingly we can proceed further.
    1) Perform an uninstallation fo CC Desktop application if it is available in the Control Panel ( Utilities > Adobe Installers for MAC).
    2) Navigate to the following locations and Rename OOBE to OOBE_old.
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE   ( /Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE for MAC )
    C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE (~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE for MAC).
    Post doing the above steps, please use the below link for installation of Creative Cloud Desktop application.

  • Update of illustrator cc 2014 using Creative Cloud for desktop fails permanently.

    Hello,
    I am trying to update the illustrator cc 2014 using Creative Cloud for desktop. The download fails due to error -60.
    Yesterday I spent few hours on chat with a support repesentative, who directed me to ask ISP for download file size limitation. The ISP responded that there are no limitations of download file at all.
    Any help with direct download instead of the desktop is appreciated.
    Best regards,
    Izidor

    No you have not lost your work. You can still open the old project in CC. Providing you did not overwrite. CC14 project should read Projectname-1. Otherwise try an auto save.
    Try this:
    Error "This project contained a sequence that could not be opened"

  • 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

  • Receive error 21 when trying to install lightroom cc 2015 using creative cloud

    On trying to install Lightroom CC 2015 using Creative Cloud I receive error 21.  Any ideas what to do??

    I have the exact same issue. I had a trial of Lightroom 5 installed, and whenever I then tried to install Lightroom CC (2015) it would fail at 42% with an error 21. Logging out and back in of CC desktop got it to install successfully and then Lightroom 5 was marked as "Start Trail" again.
    Now though, whenever I try to start Lightroom CC (2015) it shows the start splash screen and then closes straight away and doesn't start. The "Continue Trial/Purchase License" screen then appears, and closing that out does nothing.
    I've tried logging out and back in to CC desktop, and restarting, but neither option fixes the issue. I even tried logging out, restarting then logging back in again. Still no joy.
    As a side note: Lightroom 5 in CC desktop doesn't show an uninstall option - it says "Uninstall Unavailable". Both Photoshop CC and Lightroom CC do allow for an uninstall option though.
    I'm on Mac OSX 10.10.3

  • Can I use Creative Cloud in two countries?

    I am using Creative Cloud for photographers, Photoshop and Lightroom. I spend 8 months of the year in the UK and 4 in France. I run CC on my desktop in the UK and wish to do the same in France. Obviously I can't use it on both at once so it is within the licensing on that basis, but I am concerned at how Adobe licensing will react to being used in different countries (albeit both in the European Union).

    it doesn't matter for continued licensing.
    it's no different than the situation of many people who 'vacation' and take their adobe programs with them (and have no difficulty).

    Hi Daniele,
    The CC2014 applications are only compatible with 10.7 or later but you can install CC and CS6 versions of most of Adobe applications but not all.

    Creative Cloud Help | Creative Cloud / Common Questions
    Do I need to be online to access my desktop apps?
    No, the desktop applications in Creative Cloud, such as Photoshop and Illustrator, are installed directly on your computer, so you don’t need an ongoing Internet connection to use them.
    An Internet connection is required the first time you install and license your apps, but you can use the apps in offline mode with a valid software license. The desktop apps will attempt to validate your software licenses every 30 days.
    Annual members can use the apps for up to 99 days in offline mode. Month-to-month members can use the software for up to 30 days in offline mode.
