We are seeing a few reports of problems with the new CreativeCloud app update.

We are still investigating these issues and will post updates when we have more information.

Based on what we've seen so far, here are some workarounds for the known issues:

1) Delete ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CoreSync/*.db*  (should be 3 or 4 files, but could be more if you have multiple accounts signing into CreativeCloud)

2) Click on the Creative Cloud Files link in the Finder (left side, under Favorites) - the OS will see that it's a bad link and should remove it from Favorites and replace it almost immediately with a working link.

Let me know if these help or not, so we can provide additional information if necessary.

I don't suppose you have a workaround for the same problem on the Windows platform? I updated my Creative Cloud at work today (Windows7) and started getting "Core Sync has stopped working" every 75 seconds.

Hi Vjeko,

The above method can also be used on Windows if you continue to see the crash. The .db files are located in a different location on Windows.

C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CoreSync.

Thanks

Warner

Hi Jason and Rune,

Could you try simply uninstalling and reinstalling the Creative Cloud app? I'm wondering if the permissions might have somehow become damaged.

I'd recommend going into the Creative Cloud app preferences and in the General section disable the launch at login option

After that, reboot the Mac and use the uninstaller from within the Creative Cloud folder in Applications

You may need to use the uninstaller if you are told its needed for installed products https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html

or use the cleaner tool to remove it Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

Please post back if you're still having difficulties after doing so.


Thanks,

- Dave

It seems to have resolved itself once I restarted the app and pointed it to a new (the existing) Creative Cloud folder

I can't find any CoreSync folder in ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/. Can it be somewhere else? The error window pops up every 20 seconds now....

The folder is there.

Make sure you are looking in your ~/Library, not in the system /Library folder.

(and apparently Ken is faster at finding help documents than I am -- see his following post on how to find the ~/Library folder)

Thank you, that fixed it for me on a Windows install, although it was little more complicated than that for me.  I had to stop/kill CoreSync first to delete the relevant files, then wait for the CC application to restart the service before sync was restored.  In the meantime, CC had made a dozen copies of the Creative Cloud Files folder, one for every time it attempted unsuccessfully to start up during the breakage.  The original folder was appended with (unknown) (1) - each subsequent failed copy incremented that last number.  When working again, the correctly named folder is being synced from empty, meaning all files have to be recreated.  Hopefully they were all in sync prior to the breakdown.

Also, my sync folder was located in a non default location on a secondary drive.  I wonder if everyone with this problem shares that or if it's unrelated.

This method worked for me.  Running MacOS X 10.10.3 with admin privileges…

1)  Quit Creative Cloud app

2)  Delete ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CoreSync/*.db*  (should be 3 or 4 files, but could be more if you have multiple accounts signing into CreativeCloud) (As noted by Chris Cox) with terminal commands:

    cd ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CoreSync

    rm *.db*

3)  Click on the Creative Cloud Files link in the Finder (left side, under Favorites) - the OS will see that it's a bad link and should remove it from Favorites and replace it almost immediately with a working link. (As noted by Chris Cox)

4)  Search for CoreSync running process with terminal command:

    ps -ef |grep CoreSync

   

    Example output

    501  4759     1   0  5:57PM ??         0:00.82 /Applications/Utilities/Adobe Creative Cloud/CoreSync/Core Sync.app/Contents/MacOS/Core Sync

    501  4760  4759   0  5:57PM ??         0:02.17 /Applications/Utilities/Adobe Creative Cloud/CoreSync/Core Sync.app/…..{lots of stuff}     

    501  5252  4868   0  6:29PM ttys000    0:00.00 grep CoreSync

    kill 4759 {match to the processes on your computer}

    kill 4760

5)  Start Creative Cloud - Sync of many files to begin…

Hello Jason

Our engineering team would like to look deeper into this issue. Could you collect the log files for this issue for us to review? Then once you have the logs files. Can you upload the files in a single zip file to your Creative Cloud account and share the link with us here?  Here is a link to show how to upload your files and share them. Creative Cloud Help | Share files and folders  & Online file storage and sharing | Creative Cloud Assets

They log files are located at;

Mac:

The log file can be found here:

<Mac Hard Drive>/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CloudSync/CoreSync-YYYY-MM-DD.log

(where YYYY-MM-DD indicate the date of the last log)

Note: The Users Library user folder is hidden on starting with 10.7 or later

see http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/access-hidden-user-library-f iles.html

Windows:

The log file can be found here:

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\CloudSync\CoreSync-YYYY-MM-DD.log

(where YYYY-MM-DD indicate the date of the last log)

Note: The AppData folder is hidden by default this doc shows how to show it if needed

http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/show-hidden-files-folders-extensions.html

Your help is appreciated.

Regards

Scott
