Why is installing 3 applications from a creative cloud packager taking over an hour?

Dear Adobe community,
I am trying to install 3 Creative Cloud applications, (Illustrator, photoshop, and indesign) on a Windows 7 Hpz420 workstation from a USB hard drive and it is taking over an hour to complete.  i created a package of the 3 applications using the CC packager and move the package over to a USB drive.  Then I start the installer exe it runs and completes, but the installation takes over an hour and 1/2.  My installation of Creative Suite 5.5 from a similar USB hard drive was much quicker, about 1/2 hour.
I don't want to use a remote installer like AAMEE. Is there a different way to create a package that is more efficient? I also don't want to redown the applications everytime I need to install them on a machine and utilize my network bandwidth.
Is this normal ?  I have rebuilt the package with the same results and have installed CC on two different machines with the same results.  I did not see anything in the forums about the installation being so slow so I am concern that I have missed something or that my results are not normal.
Your help is appreciated.
Mike

My "Gaming" computer (Toshiba Qosmio X-70A, w/ 32GB RAM, i7 Intel processors @2.7 Ghz, w/ 250GB SSD, 750GB high-speed 7,200 RPM primary & 1TB SSD/HD hybrid drive) was purchase specifically, by me, to learn & use the Adobe "Cloud" Apps with.  This computer is a beast. <And - yet> it takes me days, literally <DAYs> to download all the apps I am using/studying.
I (last week) recently had my 1st "total meltdown" w/ Win 8.1-Pro (what a total P.O.S. "OS" this is!) & have faced the daunting task of re-installing ALL of the Adobe SW available over the "Creative Cloud". This will take days (w/ a direct DSL link to a Cat-6 cable; not on Wi-Fi) to "re-install" all the "Creative Cloud" software I was learning/working with. Insane. I have never seen anything like this!
So, "DLi" - I agree! Adobe's SW (& HW) Engineers don't give a stuff about your time nor mine.
The only things that are of importance to them are (#1 - "Keeping their jobs") ... metering out their "Creative Cloud" in a manner which allows them to investigate EVERY byte on your computer/server/device BEFORE allowing you to use it . . . (hmmm....I do wonder how many dollars per month that information is worth to the NSA / per seat)?) ... and making it "a nightmare" for the user.
What an insult!
What an horrific slap in the face to each & every one of Adobe's "Creative Cloud" paying customers! (Uhhhm, that'd be you and that'd be me, too).

  • Why does Lightroom disappear from the Creative Cloud manager?

    Today may be a special case.  Now I have "Photoshop CS6", "Photoshop CC", and "Photoshop CC (2014)" on my list of apps.  But Lightroom appears on the list of "try/install" as "try", even though I am paying for the Photoshop/Lightroom combination.
    In weeks past, Lightroom would disappear from the installed list, and would not be anywhere on the list.  I would have to quit the CC manager and restart it to have it rediscover my apps.  No other application ever does this, just Lightroom.

    Hi Jimm -
    I'm not sure I understand your situation.  Do you currently have a creative cloud membership?  If you do, are you having problems installing the software?  The Adobe Application manager is the program that installs the desktop applications for Creative Cloud Members - is that what you are using?
    If you can provide some more details we'll be able ot help you.
    Thanks,

  • Error Code 201 and 213 when trying to install any Adobe application / Update my Creative Cloud Desktop App. Have tried troubleshooting with Online Chat Agents, no luck.

    I have been trying for 2 days now to get this resolved.
    Computer hashard wired internet connection, running Windows 7 Home Premium. No other issues with downloading or uploading from any other sites or programs. No other network issues reported on other computers.
    It started when I went to install Lightroom through my Creative Cloud. It prompted me to update my Creative Cloud Desktop App, which I went to do and then promptly got Error Code 201. I restarted my Creative Cloud and then skipped the update, hoping it was just an issue with that specific download. I clicked to install Lightroom and the same thing happened, Error code 201.
    I restarted my machine, and tried again. Same issue.
    I contacted Support. They had me go in and change a bunch of folder names to and add "old" to the end of them and then had me try using the Adobe Cleaner tool, which did not work. He had me go in and change some internet settings, still nothing. Same issues as before, only now with all the renaming of things I cannot even open programs I had previously been able to open like Photoshop.
    He instructed me to reinstall the CC Desktop App because the Cleaner tool was not recognizing that it existed anymore (probably something to do with renaming files.. just saying) and now I get the 201 Error when I try to reinstall the CC Desktop App.
    I ran out of time and had to stop after being on with them for over an hour.
    Today I contact back and was instructed to create a new user account on my computer and try downloading and installing the application in the new user. Same errors. 213 at first, restarted my computer and then got Error Code 201 again.
    I am getting really frustrated and really behind on my work. Any information someone could give me would be greatly appreciated. Currently waiting for a chat person to be available again.
    Thank you for your time and assistance.

    Meowia for Error 201 please see Error downloading Creative Cloud applications - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/error-downloading-cc-apps.html.  Error 213 indicates there was problem locating the update or an incorrect URL.  The troubleshooting steps are still the same as both errors are related to failure of the current network connection.

  • When you say applications can be downloaded from the Creative Cloud...

    Does this mean that you can download as many times as you like and to different Macs/PCs... just that I am travelling for a few months and am trying to avoid taking my MacBook but need to work along the way. Or can you run the applications such as InDesign from the Creative Cloud? Thanks

    "On how many computers may I install the software I download from Creative Cloud? 
    You can install the desktop applications available in Creative Cloud on up to two computers. You will have access to both the Mac OS and Windows version of these applications, so if you have a Mac at home and a PC at work, for instance, you can install your applications on both. See the product license agreements page for more information."

  • Why is the time remaining going up as I install adobe inDesign through creative cloud?

    Why is the time remaining going up as I install adobe inDesign through creative cloud?

    Downloads have built-in "checksums" (I think that's the correct term that basically check to make sure the bits of data are being downloaded correctly.
    Sometimes the previous check has to redownload the previous bits. That can cause the time to go up.
    Also, it may be that your bandwidth speed is slowing down or lots of others are accessing the bandwidth.
    BUT if the download goes way, way up—like instead of 12 minutes, it goes to 6 hours, something's wrong with the installation.
