About a week ago creative cloud signed me out, and since then I am not able to login into Creative Cloud and use any of the products.
Every time I reinstall I get an error message, "The installer was unable to access a file or directory. (Error code: 702)"
I have contacted the support team numerous times. They finally reached out to me. I shared my screen to resolve the issue but didn't work out. The next step was talking to the senior team, but even though I scheduled a phone call 3 times, they never called me or left a voice message or email.
I am getting really frustrated about this. Because I can't use any of the design tools to do my daily task, and this impacts my main source of income. I'm in desperate need of advice.
I think we found the problem to this issue. As it turns out, if you are using some kind of security profile on a business machine, it seems to mess up the file permissions in the /tmp/ directory. I'm sure there are other ways the permissions can get messed up, but we simply used the following command after logging into TERMINAL.

Holly Shhhh... it worked for me as well. I contacted the agent, and he couldn't figure it out. Asked for my contact and promised that I would get a higher-level agent to reach out to me in 24-48 hours. Meanwhile, I couldn't get my work done. THANK YOU!

Running OS 10.15.7 in my MAC Mini and unespectedly got error messages to the effect"Creative CLoud app need to resolve this problem" Had to use the Clean Up tool to get rid of the CC app, but couldn't reinstall. Did this:
Renamed OOBE folder to OOBE.old (MacOS: Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE) and still couldn't reinstall. Found your suggestion and it worked like a charm! Thanks for sharing. All well now in Adobe land!

"Not very obvious for people who've never opened Terminal before." Me. People is me. I've opened Terminal and it says things. Do I delete those things? Or do I type below it?
