After Effects licensins server not connecting

[stuart-mccoy]

After Effects has been giving me the "Please connect to the internet as soon as possible so the license can be activated (101)" error. I’m currently getting it only with After Effects and I’ve followed all the steps outlined by Adobe to fix license server issues. I've checked other Adobe apps I've been using frequently lately which are Premiere Pro, Illustrator, and InDesignat the moment and all work fine. I’ve logged out of and back into the Creative Suite app as well as logged off and back on adobe.com. Nothing seems to make this go away and I’m concerned that in 3 days I won’t have access to After Effects until the issue is resolved.

Have you made any changes to your computer or network that triggered this? Have you tried the troubleshooting in the following article: https://adobe.ly/43E1hU3

Let me know.

Thanks,

I have not made any changes to the system in the recent week or so this started happening. I did follow the steps in the link you provieded. Oddly enough the problem has gone away which makes me think this was a server issue Adobe was having. Hopefully it doesn't come back.

Glad to hear that it is working now. Yes, it could be a server-related issue. You can track the status of server-related issues here: https://adobe.ly/4oIa2V5

Feel free to reach out if there are any other questions.

Thanks,

I have the same issue but following your steps does not alleviate the problem for me.

I have the same issue. Last i checked the countdown was at 7 days, but today it was at 2 days. Getting somewhat nervous now since i just recently got the adobe cc subscription. And i need it to reel in a new job

I relogged into my adobe cloud app. I had the message a couple times more and then it just stopped. All this anxiety for nothing. Really weird and doesnt give me a lot of trust.
