Solve Creative Cloud & Elements download errors.
Recently active
I’m having a persistent issue with Photoshop 2025 on macOS. Every time I try to open the app, I get an error window that says: “An error has occurred in Photoshop; it needs to be closed. Use reference code 102.” I’ve tried everything I could find, including: My Creative Cloud account is active and licensed (I also bought Illustrator).Internet is working.System date/time and certificates are correct.Reinstalled Photoshop several times.Gave Photoshop Full Disk Access in macOS settings.Used the Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool.No firewall or antivirus issues.Logged out/in and restarted Creative Cloud. The same problem with Illustrator. Nothing has worked so far. I contacted Adobe Support in my country, but they haven’t helped me resolve the issue. I urgently need Photoshop for work and feel very stuck, despite paying for everything. Has anyone experienced this and found a solution?Any advice would be really appreciated! Thanks in advance 🙏
I have already purchased Adobe After Effects and Adobe Premiere Pro, why does my creative cloud still require me to purchase them? Are they forcing me to use pirated software? My account email is <removed-kglad>, I am very angry brother
This a FYI for regular posters who might respond to threads about older operating systems, and hardware, that is unable to install latest versions, or for pre-Creative Cloud versions back to CS5 (if I am reading it correctly). May 14th 2025 ProDesignTools Changes to Direct Downloads
Tengo 10 licencias adobe acrobat Xi perpetuas pero ya no las puedo reasignar debido a que aparecen como en uso, hay manera de que yo pueda identificar donde los tengo instalados.
Hi,I'm trying to install InDesign Server CC 2018 on a windows 11 (ver 24H2) OS, but I only have a blank window.Anyone can help?
Hello.I'm lost.I already have a suscription for CS6.I can enter into creative.adobe.com site.But I can't download any desktop app because i can find the Adobe Application Manager.Where can i get that?Thanks.
Hi community,Got 4 apps gifted from Adobe employee that last for a year. Took the 4 codes that i was gifted and redeemed at https://redeem.adobe.com using an existing Adobe account. At adobe.com Home tab for the account, i see the 4 plans, one each for the 4 apps. Downloaded the 4 installers. When opened one of the dmg files (macOS) it says install Creative Cloud and the app that i want. Installed CC and then i get a dialog where it is forcing me to pick a payment plan (see attached screen shot). Which oviously doesn't make sense since i got a free year already paid for via the code. And if at adobe.com go to manage plans, the 4 apps are there each as a separate plan and say "Prepaid plan".Does anyone have any clues or ideas of how to navigate this conumdrum? Peace,openspace4all
On my installed and working new computer Photoshop is complaining it is already used on 2 computers. but on the Adobe website on my account I have zero registerred computers. how can I register my purchased software on a new computer.
My problem has not yet been solved. My desktop PC with the only installation of Acrobat Pro 17 /permanent license and Photoshop Elements 15 crashed completely two weeks ago. I had an IT-technician fixing it, still there was absolutely no possibility to deinstall any software from the crashed PC. We had to set it up completely new. This is why my license numbers are now blocked!I do not like the idea to throw away working software, I paid for some years ago. Adobe case: [Serial numbers and case number removed]
Hello, I have issues with installing some apps in the adobe creative cloud, such as InDesign, AfterEffects and Illustrator. I know it is most likely due to my processor, I have a computer with ARM snapdragon X, microsoft copilot+. I found an article saying that they are not avaiablr for snapdragon X and that adobe is working on making these apps run on this type of computer. My question is, is there a way to download these apps on my computer? Can I somehow install these apps on my computer? I really need to use them. Thank you.
I'm trying to download version 20.0 of photoshop elements, purchased in 2021. I continue to get error 183, even after doing the suggested fixes. Anyone else deal with this problem and fix it?

Downloading for the first time on new laptop. Question coming up asking, "do you want to allow this app to make changes to your device yes or no ?". Not sure what to select here or what the Pros and cons are. Moved from Using the Community (which is about the forums) to the correct forum...

Hi there, I'm trying to download UXP developer tools to my computer from Creative Cloud but it keeps on failing once it hits 1% of the process. I've already installed Rosetta 2 - my computer is Apple M2 Max Mac Studio. I would appreciate if someone could help troubleshoot this. Thanks in advance.
Hej!Jag undrar varför det inte går att aktivera Creative Suite 5,5 Design Standard på min nya dator. Jag har inaktiverat den på en av mina två gamla datorer, men när jag ska aktivera på nytt säger systemet att programmet redan är aktiverat på två datorer - vilket inte stämmer! Jag har följt alla anvisningar och undrar nu om någon därute har något råd. Kan det vara så att programmet är för gammalt? Fast det inte står någon info om det?Jag behöver det även om jag använder det ganska sällan. Att istället betala för en prenumeration blir vansinnigt dyrt för mina behov!hälsningarLinda
I'm trying to buy a one off monthly plan for Premiere Pro, but keep getting an error message saying: 'You already have this product' - But I don't have any plans installed, and can't pay so can't open Premiere. Can't get hold of anyone in customer service. Anyone else encountered this error and know how to fix it? Very annoying and zero support from Adobe available.
Hi,customer service told me to write to you as I getthis error when trying to register my CS6.What should I do? Kind regardsDaniel

Bonjour,J'ai acheté Elements 13 en 2015. J'ai changé de PC et je souhaite réinstaller ce logiciel. J'ai suivi les conseils de la communauté, à savoir:- me connecter à mon compte adobe, aller dans produits où ma licence est enregistrée et télécharger le logiciel- renseigner ma clé de licence.Le logiciel s'est bien téléchargé. Cependant, au moment de le lancer, une fenêtre s'ouvre me demandant de me connecter avec mon adobe ID pour activer le logiciel et d'enregistrer le produit. Une autre fenêtre apparait avec un QR code. Je renseigne mon email et mon mot de passe. Une nouvelle fenêtre me dit que tout est OK, que je peux fermer et reprendre là où j'en étais. Je tente à nouveau d'ouvrir le logiciel et ça recommence... Je viens de le faire 5 ou 6 fois et mon compte est maintenant bloqué. Que dois-je faire s'il vous plait?Merci pour votre aide.
Hace unas horas adquirí una suscripción anual con descuento para estudiantes a Adobe Creative Cloud. El problema es que al intentar descargar cualquiera de los programas incluidos (como Photoshop, Illustrator, etc.), el archivo .exe que se baja no se ejecuta. No aparece ningún error, ni inicia ningún proceso: simplemente no pasa nada al hacer doble clic.Mi sistema operativo es Windows 10 Pro for Workstations, versión 22H2, compilación 19045.5737.Mi equipo: Ryzen 9 5900X, 32 GB de RAM a 3200 MHz, placa de video Radeon 6800XT, disco NVMe de 1 TB.Intenté ejecutar como administrador, desactivé temporalmente el antivirus, y verifiqué los requisitos mínimos, pero nada funciona. ¿A alguien más le pasó? ¿Hay alguna solución conocida para este tipo de problema?Desde ya, muchas gracias.

Hallo, ich habe mein Abo auf Jährlich mit Vorauszahlung umgestellt und wenn ich jetzt LRC starte bekomme ich Fehlermeldung 1000 angezeigt. Verbindung zum Internet steht, daran kann es nicht liegen. MfG Jens [Mod: Moved to the Account, Payment & Plan forum]
Hello Adobe Community,I have a problem. I have the Adobe Creative Cloud CS6 DVD installer. But when I install the programs and then restart the PC, I get a blue screen.I don't know why or what I'm doing wrong. Everything used to work normally but not anymore.Maybe someone can help me.
Is there a way to leave feedback on the adobe website? I only saw the help center, but I'm not looking for help I'd just like to inform them how disappointing (and misleading) the hungarian version of the site is.
