  1. Quit the Adobe Creative Cloud and any adobe apps that are running
  2. Download the Create Cloud Installer (CreativeCloudInstaller.dmg), https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud
  3. Changed the permissions on the [HD] > Library > Application Support > Adobe directory to Read-Write for Everyone (I'm not sure this step is necessary but I had changed the permissions on my previous attempt to resolve the error)
  4. Run the Creative Cloud Installer that you downloaded in step 2
  5. Restore the original permissions of the [HD] > Library > Application Support > Adobe directory (mine was originally set to read only for Everyone)
