Insufficient disk space. Please try and clear up space

I'm trying to install CC apps from the cloud app, but it keeps telling me about insufficient disk space on "untitled". I don't have a drive by that name, and there is 25gb free on my main drive I am trying to install them on.

It's getting really frustrating as it has happened before with Adobe manager tools.

Correct answer Mylenium

We can't know anything without at least some basic system information. And 25 GB isn't much. All CC apps combined already will need about 12 GB and that doesn't even account for the temporary files during download and install, so you may indeed have "insufficient disk space".

QueenSylveon, how much disk space is available on drive/partition that contains the operating system?

It's a macbook pro 15" from 2011 with 16gb ram and 250gb SSD. The issues is that I have 25gb free space which is more than enough to install Photoshop and Illustrator CC as I just had them as CS6, but when I try to install them from the CC tool, it says insufficient disk space. I had the same issues with the old adobe download manager and I had to install the cs6 from trial versions. Problem is that I can't get CC as a trial version to install with my full license.

I don't install all CC apps, and I know I have plenty of space to install the 900mb PS and AI takes.

The actual issue seems to be that the adobe CC downloader/installer/whatever is as buggy as shit. Colour me surprised. I have 64gb available on the system SSD and 250gb availble on another internal HDD but I can't install Bridge. Yes... Bridge.

Same problem.. Some untitled drive. Surely it's not trying to download to the EFI partition... (209MB btw...).

Searching for a solution gets you a lot of smug pebkac inferences.
