When creative cloud updated it installed another version of each adobe program, I have duplicity of each program

Hello,
When CC updated to the 2014 version lately, I found out that I have duplicate version of each adobe program, the previous ones I had and another version with 2014 added to it.
Can I remove the previous versions? I believe it takes space of my hard drive on Mac...Is it safe to remove the previous versions?
Thanks

Ilbra you are welcome to remove the previous version if you no longer have a need for it to be installed.  You can find more details on how to uninstall the software at Install and update apps - https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html.

  • When Creative Cloud updated a few days ago (Win7) it reported no installed apps. In Lightroom I keep getting messages that a new version is available. Installed it from CC and it installed without error, CC shows I installed it, but it simply fails to run

    When Creative Cloud updated a few days ago (Win7) it reported I had no installed apps.
    In Lightroom I keep getting messages that a new version is available. Installed it from CC and it installed without error, CC shows I installed it, but it simply fails to run.
    How do I get CC to find apps installed under the previous version?
    And how do I get Lightroom CC to run?
    Peter

    I still don't know how to get CC to find that I have Photoshop CC installed, but running Creative Cloud, going to Preferences and signing out, then signing in again got Lightroom CC to work.
    Since Photoshop CC is still working despite apparently not being installed things are now OK, at least for the moment. But I'm not feeling at all happy with Adobe.

  • Got to end of trial period for Adobe reader XI and cannot revert back to old version or install another version b/c it says I have a newer more functional version, so now I've got no reader at all and cannot fix. Any ideas how to overcome this?.

    YOu need to be clear about the products you are using, so we can help you. In particular there is no trial of Adobe Reader, it is free and keeps running. Sounds like you are using some versions of Acrobat - which?
    YOu must properly uninstall the trial, don't just delete files or you may get a mess impossible to recover.

  • IPod touch 4 gives message "Cannot Download" "there is not enough available storage to download...You can manage your storage in settings." when trying to update or install one but not all apps. I have more storage than the app takes. Can u help?

    iPod touch 4 gives message "Cannot Download" "there is not enough available storage to download...You can manage your storage in settings." when trying to update or install one of the apps, but not other apps.  I have more space available than needed for the app.  What do I need to do to fix this problem?  Do I need to completely reset this device as new and, if so, how should I do that? 

    You need to delete some item (apps, music, photos etc) from the iPod,.However, sometime files get corrupt. To determine that connect the iPod to your computer and click on the iPod under Devices in iTunes. How much storage is used by the "other" category. If over 1 1/2 GB that indicates corrupted files.
    To get the "other" down to normal value you need to restore your iPod usually restoring from backup works but sometimes restoring to factory settings.new iPod is required./

    I have just reformatted my drive and reinstalled creative cloud and lightroom. When i open it, it says there is another version running the catalog and i have to switch to it to fix the problem, but there is no other version on my computer. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Where did you put the LR catalog?
    Did you install the same version of LR, which one?
    OS and version?
    Open the folder where the catalog (*.lrcat) is located. If you see a file with lock in it while LR is not running, delete it.
    Now try to start LR again.

  • Unable to install Creative Cloud Updates

    Adobe Illustrator CS6 Update (version 16.2.0)
    There was an error installing this update. Please quit and try again later. Error Code: U44M1P34
    DW CS6 12.1.1 Creative Cloud update
    There was an error installing this update. Please quit and try again later. Error Code: U44M1P34
    Photoshop Camera Raw 7.3
    There was an error installing this update. Please quit and try again later. Error Code: U44M1P34
    That enough information? After chasing around the Adobe Help system for an hour and a half today and not being able to contact anyone at all yesterday when this forst started occuring, I'm kinda getting annoyed
    Then getting on here and finding that my screen name (my own name, registered with Adobe and on the forums) isn't available, one could be excused for an excess of peevishness, I hope.

    I finally found a solution that worked!
    I had to find the adobe logs to understand what happened, and found this error "information not found in Media_db".
    Here's the location of the solution: Re: Getting fatal Exit Code 34 when installing an app
    And here's the answer copied and pasted from the page. I have windows 8 64 bit, but this solution worked for me. The downside was that it said many of my applications weren't installed in the CC app, so I had to hit reinstall on many of them, but everything installed and updated correctly after this.
    I had the very same problem, and I am using windows 7 too. After chat with the adobe tech support. He showed me how to fix the problem.
    Also, I tried the clean tool already. That didn't help.
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe   if you use 32bit system I think it would be C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe
    Change 3 folder name.
    Adobe PCD -> Adobe PCDold
    backup -> backupold
    caps -> capsold
    Then run the setup file again.
    This method worked for me. Hope that would work for you also and save you some time.

  • Creative Cloud update to version 2.7.1.418 killed my Windows 8.1 system!

    Earlier tonight, I saw the balloon from Creative Cloud stating that an update was available.  So I installed it.  Half-way during the installation, my windows desktop disappeared.
    I started the task manager and restarted "Explorer.exe".  That made the background reappear, but the taskbar was blank with just the lone Windows 8.1 icon on the very left.  Hovering over the taskbar showed the wait cursor.
    The task manager showed everything was running normally but the desktop was clearly broken.  I checked the directories and everything was as expected.
    So I held my breath and rebooted.  After logging in, the desktop slowly appeared over about 10 minutes, but all the desktop icons were still missing, as were the taskbar icons.  Only a few of the notification icons appeared.
    I then managed to bring up a command window with the task manager (fortunately, Ctrl+Alt+Esc still worked) and launched System Restore (rstrui.exe).  It showed me the Adobe Creative Cloud was the most recent restore point (below); the previous restore point after that was a Microsoft Windows update from 2 days ago.  When I asked for the list of files that were affected by the Creative Cloud update and would be reverted, it showed this:
    I again held my breath and restored my machine to before the above CC update; after about 20 minutes of shucking and jiving and a reboot, everything was working properly again.
    So there is clearly something out of kilter with this latest update.  Adobe the Time Vampire has once again stolen 2 hours of my life, but this time, at least it wasn't a license server issue.  I think.

    Dave: I did the Microsoft Update two days before this happened, and rebooted as required.  I just created a new restore point and lauched Creative Cloud.  Now I get the famous white screen:
    It just sits and spins (been 10 minutes now). 
    Fortunately, I saved away this command (which I've had to use 4 or 5 times already):
    del %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE\opm.db
    Unfortunately now, I get this (even after closing the above window):
    The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
    So I killed everything that said "Adobe" in the task manager and this time, the command succeeded.
    Fortunately, the current apps seem to still work.  I can't seem to find the "Creative Cloud" app in the applications on my system, but I launched Photoshop CC, told it to look for updates, and got a list of the 5 prgorams that need updates in the Adobe Application manager:
    I will proceed with the updates, holding my breath.

    Hi There,
    Kindly try: Creative Cloud applications ask for serial number
    Could you please let us know which OS version you are using, we would also like to know what all versions of Adobe's software have you installed on your machine, like: CS 5, CS6, CC, CC2014?
    Thanks,

  • My new apps have changed to try within creative cloud; and my installed apps will not authenticate.  I recently canceled one subscription and replaced it with another.

    My new apps have changed to try within creative cloud; and my installed apps will not authenticate.  I recently canceled one subscription and replaced it with another.  Can you please look at it and correct?

    Solution for Windows 8.1: Locate the C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE folder.  Log out of Creative Cloud and from Task Manager end task for Creative Cloud.  From the OOBE folder delete ALL files.  Do not delete folders (com.adobe.accc.apps & com.adobe.accc.home).  When complete, restart Creative Cloud and log in with ID and Password. 

  • Trial version of AcrobatXI uninstalled, Creative Cloud thinks it installed?

    How can I install Acrobat XI when Creative Cloud says it is up to date and already installed?
    I uninstalled it prior to purchasing and installing Creative Cloud on the recommendation of customer service.
    CC will not let me install Acrobat now?

    That is interesting.  After a couple of tries deactivating and uninstalling then reinstalling Creative Cloud with no success, I tried the following:
    I uninstalled Creative Cloud and any Adobe remnants.  I logged out of my account, shut down the computer and restarted logging on to the Adobe website.  I tried to download the trial of Acrobat XI, it wouldn't let me install in the applications folder but would let me install it on my main computer folder.  I installed it, the app showed up in the Applications folder I then logged into my Adobe account and  installed Creative Cloud.  It all worked.  That was the only way I could get the Acrobat XI application on the computer.
    Adobe XI shows installed and up to date and it allowed me to install Light Box and other Adobe apps as well.  Adobe XI when opened makes no reference to a "trial version".  It works like it is supposed to and I'm hoping it continues.  5 days and all is well so far.

  • Creative Cloud update fails with "the download appears to be corrupted" when tried through our company's firewall, but succeeds if the computer is taken outside the firewall

    Creative Cloud update fails with "the download appears to be corrupted" when tried through our company's firewall, but succeeds if the computer is taken outside the firewall. The IT guys have opened up the ports and URL's specified in the Adobe documentation.  I have also captured the network traffic of both the failed and successful downloads for IT to examine (using Little Snitch), however they can find nothing to account for the problem.  Adobe just seems to "give up and die" after about 2-3 minutes.  Why is this?  How can I or IT fix this?
    Can I send the above log files to someone familiar with these issues for examination?
