I recently upgraded from CS6 to CC. First round of installs no problem. A week later there were a few updates including the CC Destop App and this is where the fun begins. I installed the updates and immediately after I noticed it was only showing I had 3 apps installed when I have several. I tried uninstalling the CC Desktop app and re-installing it but I can't get it to install. Every time I try it just says you have an "unknown error". I called Adobe's awesome support to which we ran throught diganostics only at the end to tell me they are having issues and to call back later. I have been all over the forums and have yet to find a solution, nothing works (Including runing the cloud cleaner and renaming the OOBE file).
I am running OS X 10.8.4 any other suggestions or help will be much appreciated
Romsinha! Thank you! I was having this problem and your instructions helped solve the issue.

I assume you have already went thru this help doc http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/unknown-server-error-launching-cc.html
A few questions, have you tested in a new admin user account and is your mac behind any additional proxy or firewalls?

I am also having issues with installation. My computer, running latest Mountan Lion, says the following:
We've encountered the following issues:
Creative Cloud desktop failed to install.
I currently don't have previous versions installed on my mac. Thanks!

This is what I had to do. Go through and delete everything that was related to CS6 then run the Adobe Cleaner tool ... and delete all the junk then install the adobe cloud and re-install my apps.

Having issues with error 201 on a freshly formatted win 7 machine. Have all updates and no other software on this fresh dual xeon machine. No prior install of any Adobe products. Have a blazing fast internet connection, but can't download a 3mb setup file??
Tried chat support, waited for an hour, gave up. Can't find a direct download of the CC setup program, just the small utility. Essentially a set up file to get to the set up file to get to the main program downloads?
Nice job. smh
Looking for "alternatives."

SOLID -
The explanation was "on point" and worked from the word go. About the 7th post that I've read on the topic and you got it right!
Thanks!!

Here we are in June 2016 and THIS IS STILL A PROBLEM! I have one user whose computer went from perfectly normal to this Adobe FUBAR in one day. I've tried every suggestion I've found and still can't reinstall Creative Cloud.
We pay a lot of money for this garbage. Why can't Adobe developers get it working properly?

I'm in the same boat you are - about two months ago cc apps stopped working on my laptop. I tried uninstalling the apps that weren't working and reinstalling - no dice. I tried uninstalling CC completely - then tried reinstalling CC. And that's where things are stalled. I'm able to download it, but when I double click the icon to install, nothing happens.

This happened to me just now. I've tried all the solutions but it just won't install. Adobe need to fix this ASAP.

Thank you, Romit Sinha, That worked for me!! You're my hero! If you get this, what the hell was blocking it, the OOBE file? And why did .old make it work??? Thanks so much again,

It seems as though a previous version was causing my hold up. it wouldn't let me use the uninstaller because it was an old version and said the developer had to update it. I just trashed everything old like the uninstallers, apps and folders and tried again and it worked.
