Creative cloud updates

My desktop creative cloud app is showing all my apps as up to date when they're not. I'm still on Photoshop 14.0 while my colleague is on 14.1. I've tried logging in and out of my account, uninstalling and reinstalling the creative cloud app, deleting preferences etc. I can't update from within the apps themselves as this option is greyed out. Why is it not updating?

    Hi flitch56789,

    Please navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\AAMUpdaterInventory\1.0\AdobeUpdaterAdminPrefs.dat open in notepad and change the value from 1 to 0.

    Launch the software/Go to help and select updates.

    On Mac the location is: <Startup Disk>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/AAMUpdaterInventory/1.0/AdobeUpdaterAdminPrefs.dat.
