Annoying red dot in CC icon on Mac menu bar

The last month, month and a half, after one of the latest updates, this annoying red dot is about always there.
It goes away after clicking the icon (and the Creative Cloud window appears with nothing new), but it's back when my computer wakes up the next day.

 

I don't have a clue why.
There are no messages, no available updates and I don't see any setting that might cause this dot to be there.

 

Can someone tell me how to get rid of it before it pulls out my eye and suck it up?

 

Could it have to do with "syncing"? I have a Photography subscription, I use Lightroom Classic and I don't use the cloud.

    Correct answer Just Shoot Me

    Have you Turned OFF the option to Start Creative Cloud with the system as I described in the other conversation?????

     

    If not then you will Always have that icon and wou Will see a Red dot on it every now and then.

     

    As I said before you do NOT need to have the CC DTA running to use all other Adobe applications.

      I have moved your post from the LR Classic forum to the Get Started forum as your question doesn't relate to LR Classic.

       

      There has been other reports of this happening and to my knowledge there hasn't been any resolution to it.

      But IIRC it is only happeninig on Mac computers.

      The CC DTA is trying to notify you of something, some update done automatically.

        This seems like it would be an incredibly easy problem to fix, yet it's been months and it's still happening to pretty much everyone who has a Mac. Listen to your customers and fix this bug.
