I'm trying to call Adobe for support about the issue with my Creative Cloud App not updating (when you click the blue update button next to the individual apps, nothing happens). When you call they ask if you're calling about an adobe product. Yes. Ok select which one.... and they list every product under the sun EXCEPT the actual adobe creative cloud app itself. So I was forced to choose option 9 and they go sorry we dont offer phone support for that. (Why not?) So then I chose option 8 and I asked the man if I reached the right extension. He said no he'll transfer me.

Sorry for not helping you with an answer but I would like to know on which number you are calling ? I dial the 8008336687 number but I only get an answer that the number doesn´t exist...

first try, resetting the cc app: To reset the Creative Cloud desktop app, make sure it's in the foreground, then press:

Win: Ctrl + Alt + R
Mac: Cmd + Opt + R

if that fails, try to repair
https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/creative-cloud-install-stuck.html

if that fails go ahead and uninstall/reinstall per the above link

if that fails, do a clean cc install following each applicable step:

uninstall every cc app including preferences, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-remove-app.html
then uninstall the cc desktop app, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html
clean your computer of cc files per http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
check for, and if available, update your os
restart your computer (don't skip this)
reinstall the cc desktop app, https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud.
if you're unable to install the cc desktop app at this stage, use an administrator account (solution 4 here, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/creative-cloud-missing-damaged.html)
use the desktop app to install your cc programs/trials

 

finally, if you want human help from chat:

 

using a browser that allows popups and cookies, contact adobe support during pst business hours by clicking here, https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html

click contact us (in the lower right)
in the chat field, type AGENT
be patient, it can take quite a while to reach a human
