Creative Cloud app causes serious bug on macOS 14 Sonoma beta

On macOS 14 Sonoma (currently in beta), the Adobe Creative Cloud app causes a serious issue.

 

Bug Description

 

Once the Creatice Cloud app is launched, the following problem starts happening in ALL apps:

 

If you trigger a Save dialog one way or another, the app's icon starts bouncing in the Dock and the app isn't the frontmost process anymore. That is, it doesn't respond to keyboard until you manually bring the app back into focus by either clicking the Save dialog, app window, or the app icon in the Dock.


The same issue also happens when calling the Open dialog (in which case the icon doesn't bounce in some apps, but the app is still not responding to keyboard until you bring it back to front manually).

The bug prevents users from performing regular operations related to saving/opening documents such as specifying the file name, or cancelling the dialog etc. (until you manually bring the app back to the front).

 

Additional Info

 

-The problem affects absolutely all apps of any maker (Apple, Adobe, Microsoft and everything else).

 

-The problem only starts once the Adobe Creative Cloud is launched. No issues prior to that.

 

-Once the problem starts, it never goes away. You can quit the CC app and even kill every process that contains "adobe" and "creative" in Activity Monitor: the problem still remains.

 

-Happens in the latest beta 3.

 

 

Sonoma is, obviously, still in beta so bugs are still expected. So hopefully Apple and Adobe will work on it and fix it before Sonoma is released.

Additional info:

 

While on my machine the issue is triggered by Creative Cloud, some users experience this issue without Creative Cloud as well:

@kglad: yes, of course I'm aware that Creative Cloud isn't officially compatible with beta versions of macOS. plus I'm running the beta version on a test drive so this bug isn't a problem as long as Sonoma is in beta.

 

i posted this info to make Adobe aware of this potential problem so that they look into this and address the issue, if needed, in cooperation with Apple.

Hi @leo.r, thanks for alerting us about this issue. We'll keep an eye out as part of our testing and also monitor if Apple resolves the issue in subsequent drops.

@kglad: sorry, not exactly sure how this is related to this topic but I'm sure you're aware that Adobe beta products can be downloaded from Creative Cloud desktop app. regardless, Adobe beta progam doesn't seem to be related to my post.

@Игорь32283327o4kg : What problem specifically are you referring to? The original problem I described in my post was fixed by Apple long time ago.

@dhavalkashyap

that's not the issue i originally reported. that issue was fixed by Apple long time ago. if you do have any issues you'd better start a separate thread about it.
