Why is it so hard to find the download link for the Creative Cloud desktop app?

So - I have a subscription and I needed to move the location where the files were on my computer. The easiest path is to uninstall and reinstall. So I used the Adobe uninstaller tool (which, even though I told it to uninstall everything, does not uninstall everything). Then I rebooted. All Adobe CS creative cloud desktop apps are gone. I log into my Adobe account online, and the only thing I can find are downloads for downloading "trials" of the adobe apps - this is whilst being logged in. And to download the trial it starts to ask me questions about how I will use it etc. so I didn't bother.
When I go to the page that has what ostensibly looks like it will lead to the Adobe creative suite downloader/desktop tool, it takes me to the list of ALL adobe desktop app "trials".
I finally found it by hunting around in the help screens and Google for five minutes, but it's still obnoxious that there is no link to directly download the Creative Cloud desktop app here, which is where it sends you:
http://www.adobe.com/creativecloud/catalog/desktop.html
Instead all you see are a bunch of "Trial versions", even though these are included with the adobe creative cloud subscription.
So I don't really have a question, more of a rant at the stupidity of the way this is set up. When I'm logged in, I should be able to access the downloads, or at least the tool that lets me download the downloads, without spending time hunting around for it. It's ridiculous that it's not set up that way currently.

Same with me here is the link I found and used
https://creative.adobe.com/products/download/creative-cloud?version=2.0

  • Where to find the download link for the Portal BP for Payer Direct?

    Can anyone tell me where to find the download for the BP for Payer Direct???
    I see information about it on help.sap.com.
    Also, it is mentioned in detail in the docs for the BP for Supplier Collaboration.
    But I cannot find anything for it on SDN or Service Marketplace.
    Thank you in advance

    I finally found it in the Content Portfolio.
    I was including the "" in my search...like "Payer Direct". This way was just returning every one of the BPs.
    But if I search on Payer Direct without the quotes around the term, then I get the result.
    In my result, it does not say License Required. I get the download icon, and it says "The license for this package is included in the mySAP ERP (P) or the mySAP SRM (P) or the SAP Financial Supply Chain Management (P) or NW User (for R/3 Users)license."
    But when I click on the download link, it does not work. I get a syntax error.

  • Cannot find the download link for the already paid Lion!

    Hi,
    Although I have already purchased the Lion and Apple has already charged my credit card, cannot see the
    download link anywhere ın the ıTunes store. I've checked my downloads folder just to see whether I've already downloaded
    but to no avail. It doesn't show on my account page in my accounts page in the ıTunes store. I do have the order number and everything.
    Could anyone please be kind enough to point me in the right direction?
    Thanks very much in advance.

    Do you mean the App Store?
    Lion is downloaded from the App Store, not through iTunes.

  • Why is the download link for the upgrade of Lightroom not working?

    Am I the only one, for who the download link https://creative.adobe.com/de/products/de/download/lightroom?promoid=KSKAY ist not working? I just get the error site not found...

    The 5.7 version. I found a different link, which was working, but I wasn't aware that's not just an upgrade but a completely new version you have to pay for again.
    So I think I will stick to my version. But thanks for your answer anyway.

  • Why can't I access the download link for the newest Flash Player build?

    So I want to update my Adobe Flash Player...
    If I head over to Adobe.com and go to Download > Adobe Flash Player, I am sent to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/?promoid=JZEFT
    Then, if I click "Install Now" (also my anti-virus does accept software installations) I am simply directed back to Adobe.com
    It's an infinite loop and no matter where I look for alternate downloads I am sent back to the same place with the "Install Now" button, again directing me to Adobe.com
    I currently run (newest) Mac OSX 10.8.5, (newest) Firefox 25.0.1, and Adobe Flash Player 11.9.900.117.

    Re: Antivirus on a Mac...
    This comment applies to malicious software ("malware") that's installed unwittingly by the victim of a network attack. It does not apply to software, such as keystroke loggers, that may be installed deliberately by an attacker who has hands-on access to the victim's computer. That threat is in a different category, and there's no easy way to defend against it. If you have reason to suspect that you're the target of such an attack, you need expert help.
    All versions of OS X since 10.6.7 have been able to detect known Mac malware in downloaded files. The recognition database is automatically updated once a day; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders. In most cases, there’s no benefit from any other automated protection against malware.
    Starting with OS X 10.7.5, there is another layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications that are downloaded from the network will only run if they're digitally signed by a developer with a certificate issued by Apple. Applications certified in this way haven't actually been tested by Apple (unless they come from the Mac App Store), but you can be sure that they haven't been modified by anyone other than the developer, and his identity is known, so he could be held responsible if he knowingly released malware. For most practical purposes, applications recognized by Gatekeeper as signed can be considered safe. Note, however, that there are some caveats concerning Gatekeeper:
    It doesn't apply to software that comes packaged as an installer. Treat all third-party installers with caution.
    It can be disabled or overridden by the user.
    It can be bypassed by some third-party networking software, such as BitTorrent clients and Java applets (see below.)
    It only applies to applications downloaded from the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not checked.
    For more information about Gatekeeper, see this Apple Support article.
    Notwithstanding the above, the most effective defense against malware attacks is your own intelligence. All known malware on the Internet that affects a fully-updated installation of OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "trojan horses," which can only have an effect if the victim is duped into running them. If you're smarter than the malware attacker thinks you are, you won't be duped. That means, primarily, that you never install software from an untrustworthy source. How do you know a source is untrustworthy?
    Any website that prompts you to install a “codec,” “plug-in,” or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown one, is untrustworthy.
    A web operator who tells you that you have a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with your computer, or that you have won a prize in a contest you never entered, is trying to commit a crime with you as the victim. [Some reputable websites did legitimately warn users who were infected with the "DNSChanger" malware. That exception to this rule no longer applies.]
    “Cracked” copies of commercial software downloaded from a bittorrent are likely to be infected.
    Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must be downloaded directly from the developer’s website. No intermediary is acceptable.
    Java on the network (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related) is always a potential weak spot in the security of any operating system. If a Java web plugin is not installed, don't install it unless you really need it. If it is installed, you should disable it (not JavaScript) in your web browsers. Few websites have Java content nowadays, so you won’t be missing much. This setting is mandatory in OS X 10.5.8 or earlier, because Java in those obsolete versions has known security flaws that make it unsafe to use on the Internet. The flaws will never be fixed. Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java can never be fully trusted, even if no vulnerabilities are publicly known at the moment.
    Follow these guidelines, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can reasonably be.
    Never install any commercial "anti-virus" products for the Mac, as they all do more harm than good. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use the free software ClamXav — nothing else.
    Remove ANY Antivirus software you have because YOU DON'T NEED IT WITH OS X.
