Creative Cloud Updates failed

[tlstafford]

My CC Desktop app (MacMini) indicates that I have 3 updates to make. However, when I select Update, the downloads fail. Any idea what's happening? All software and OS is current. Below is a screenshot.

Too easy. I have the (except Windows 11) same problem. Restarted a dozen times and all paid up. Has worked flawlessly until September and now nothing. The internet is blazing, Chrome works great, and Creative Cloud works beautifully. I login the same as always and all is well until an attempt is made to update any app, then goes to 'Waiting' for a while, then just 'Failure. Try again.'

make sure you have the latest cc desktop version, then proceed to

reset the cc desktop app by making sure it's in the foreground, then press:

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


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


if that fails, uninstall using the correct uninstaller from https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html#sa_src=web-mes... and then reinstall using*


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

uninstall every cc app including preferences per https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-remove-app.html

check for, and if available, update your os

if windows is your os, repair all ms visual c++ versions that can be repaired (use google if you don't know how to do this)

NOTE: win 11 users that have trouble with the latest win 10 installer often have success with the older win 10 installer.
