Creative Cloud update and network issue

  • July 28, 2022

Yesterday a Creative Cloud update notification appeared, I started the download but it stopped at 5%.

Then all the network connections of the Mac stopped (MacPro 2013 / Big Sur) and it was impossible to connect with every web sites with both Safari and Firefox.

The only workaround was a hard quit of Creative Cloud and a restart of the Mac.

This morning I tried again, and the same thing happened, then I tried a third time but it was the same.

Every time the update stopped at 5% and in that moment also the internet connection stopped working (web, mail, ftp...).

 

The same Creative Cloud update worked without issues in a PC / Windows 10.

Tystero, sorry, the computer shuts down the network connection after the Creative Cloud desktop application is installed or even during the download and install process.  Have you reviewed the settings for any installed security software?  

 

The behavior in this discussion could be caused by a misconfigured software firewall blocking or evaluating the requests for network access.  I would recommend verifying that any installed security software is using the manufacturers recommended settings and to apply any updates that are available for the software

Hello, here are the screenshots:

1 - Creative Cloud announcement

2 - Update stops at 5%, Internet connection do not work (Safari, firefox, Mail and every other web app), Activity Monitor crashes and shows an empty window

3 - Creative Cloud forced quit, then I had also to restart the Mac to have the internet connection working again.
