Creative cloud won't stop syncing

I have tried everything I read on fixing this issue, re-installing, re-starting I did it all and after 5 days it is still syncing. My files update and sync but the CC App continues to sync and so I can't share any files. What can I do??

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi,

Thanks for reporting the issue.

Would you be able to collect and upload log files from your system?

Here is a link to an article about the tool with a link to download it.

Log Collector Tool

The tool will create a zip file on the desktop of all the log files. Please could you send us your logs (punaggar@adobe.com) using the tool.

Engineering may have some additional questions but this will help us get started.

Thanks,

Puneet Aggarwal

So I'm not sure if this solution is permanent - I'll test it again in a few days - but for now it's seemed to have solved it for the most part:

I just went into my Apps via my Windows settings, clicked Adobe CC and selected "Uninstall", and it pops up asking whether to uninstall or Repair. Just clicked Repair, let it do it's thing, opened CC up again and the file sync was suddenly showing the actual file count and was progressing slowly (neither of which it was doing before). 

Will comment again if it stops working.

Hi,

I have downloaded the Log Collector Tool however when I am asked to sign in it will not accept my password.  I checked I had downloaded the tool for Mac as well.  Any reason for this I have also checked my password was correct.

Thanks, I got it resolved, I removed the folders that were not syncing and

renamed them and added them again.

    reset the cc desktop app by making sure it's in the foreground, then press:

    Win: Ctrl + Alt + R
    Mac: Cmd + Opt + R


    if that fails, repair per https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/creative-cloud-install-stuck.html


    if that fails, uninstall using the correct uninstaller from https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html#sa_src=web-messaging and then reinstall using*


    if that fails, do a clean cc install carefully following each applicable step:

    uninstall every cc app including preferences per https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-remove-app.html

    then uninstall the cc desktop app, again using the correct uninstaller per https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html#sa_src=web-messaging

    clean your computer of cc files per http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html

    check for, and if available, update your os

    if windows is your os, repair all ms visual c++ versions that can be repaired (use google if you don't know how to do this)

    if windows is your os update your ms visual c++, if it can be updated (use google if you don't know how to do this)

    restart your computer (don't skip this)

    reinstall the cc desktop app using the "alternative download links" at the bottom of the page at https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/creative-cloud-desktop-app-download.html

    use the desktop app to install your cc programs/trials

    NOTE: win 11 users that have trouble with the latest win 10 installer often have success with the older win 10 installer.
