sign in help

The sign in page tells me that I have 'signed out' and need to sign in when I enter my password. I changed passwords and the same thing happens. What is happening?

I have been having this issue for a week now. I have tried everything suggested and then some to fix this problem. But the desktop cc keeps signing me out. UGH


Please navigate to C/Users/User Name/AppData/Local/Adobe/OOBE/opm.db and delete it(Windows).

Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE/opm.db and trash it.

Enable user library: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/access-hidden-user-library-files.html.

Launch CC desktop and try to sign in.

Kindly let us know whether it worked.

Regards,

Romit Sinha

I have done this EACH AND EVERY time I attempt to login to the CC app.  It sometimes works and sometimes does NOT!   Today it is not working at all.

This is INFURIATING!!!  Makes me wonder why I am subscribing to CC!!

This is rich.  I tried to delete the opm.db file as you suggested.
But it won't let me because...It says it's open in creative cloud.
Now what?

ttaleman quincy, You must quit the Creative Cloud app prior to deleting the opm.bd file.

Hi all.  I had this same problem, and tried every suggestion mentioned in these forums.  Finally I asked my IT team at work to assist, after talking with Adobes online tech support.  They found a malware program on my computer call SafeGaurd with RocketTab.  After the program was removed I could log in and download the trial of Photoshop, no problem.  I suggest looking for malware on your computer if none of the a fore mentioned suggestions work for you.  Good luck!

Deleting the opm.db and re-installing the CC Desktop worked for me. Thanks for the help!

This did fix it - I did not go searching for this type of a technical issue until I had spent 20 minutes trying other things.

At first I thought I forgot my password - so I changed it - still did not work.

Then I uninstalled and reinstalled - did not fix it.

I verified I could login via the web - so I turned to Sysinternals Suite - turned on Process Monitor and saw that the file mentioned in this post

opm.db was from an Exclusive Lock with a Fail Immediately of True. And then it would try to create file opm-db.journal - and got a NAME-NOT-FOUND.

So when I saw the idea of deleting the opm.db - in this forum - it seemed right - and for me it worked.

I did have to go find the creative cloud processes running in Task Manager and kill them as the file was locked until I did.

But I agree - the software should NEVER have locked up like this and require the technical digging to find a solution - need a better QA process on this.
