I have 2 Mac devices (an iMac and a Macbook Pro), both running Big Sur 11.6 and Adobe iCloud 2021.

When I boot the MacBook Pro, the the iCloud logo is visable in the Menu bar however, n the iMac, it does not. I have compred the Login items and the Menu Bar and the Notificaztions settins andthey are the same. The Acrivity Monitor indicates the same Adobe Apps are rining on both devices.

Is there something I am missing? Apple support said it is an Adobe stuation.

I fnd having tge icon in the menu bar is an excellent way to be notified when an update is available.

Did you download and install Creative Cloud desktop app on your iMac?

If it's installed, it should display in your Applications folder.

iCloud is Apple, not Adobe.

Adobe Creative Cloud is totally different from iCloud.

Please excuse my error. I am referring to Adobe Cloud, not iCloud.

I have gone through all settings I can find and have found that on the MacBook Pro where the icon does show, within the Activity Monitor, Adobe Desktop Service is running but on the iMac where the icon is not funning, it is not present.

Any thpughts would be appriciated.

Thanks ahead of time...
