Once again and without any reason Creative Cloud is disconnecting 6 or 7 times a day. Every two or three month or so it's happenig and fixing itself after a while.

Could it be the adobe server? This is starting to get very frustrating

Hello,

I have the same issue for weeks now and I tried all procedures on the forum with no improvement at all. Adobe Cloud keeps on sign out every 3-5 minutes! Impossible to work. If you use the ADOBE FONTS, it's a real problem.

Process #1: Don't work for me

I would like to share with you the solution that worked for me.

This is the step-by-step procedure I followed, guided by Tariq from Adobe's live chat service:

1: Open Activity monitor from spotlight and end all Adobe related processes. You may find processes like AAMupdater, AAMupdater notifier, Adobe Crash demon process.

2: Open a Finder window, select Go>Go to folder option, type in ~/Library and hit enter.

3: Now navigate to Application Support/Adobe/OOBE/.. folder.

4: Delete opm file under OOBE.

5: Rename OOBE to OOBEold.

6: Check if you have AAMupdater in the same location.

7: Please rename it to AAMupdaterold.

8: Click on gear icon on Creative Cloud desktop app and choose Quit Creative Cloud.

9: Then launch it, sign-in and click on Apps tab.

Processu #2: Don't work either

Adobe Creative Cloud signs you out or asks you to sign in repeatedly

if you get the to last (reinstall) step, do a complete clean and reinstall:

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

then uninstall the cc desktop app, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html

clean your computer of cc files per http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html

restart your computer (don't skip this)

reinstall the cc desktop app, https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud.

if you're unable to install the cc desktop app at this stage, use an administrator account (solution 3 here, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/creative-cloud-missing-damaged.html)

use the desktop app to install your cc programs/trials

Both solutions didn't work for me at all.

After hours of trail and error, I found a solution that seems to work until now.

I saw a CONNECTION SERVER PROBLEM on the Adobe Cloud window for a split second. So I guess it's their server not allowing me, so see below:

1. Go to www.adobe.com and SIGN IN

2. Go to PERSONAL ACCOUNT

3. Go to PLANS

4. Go to MANAGE PLANS

5. at the bottom of the page, DEACTIVATE all devices

6. Then start ADOBE CLOUD and SIGN IN again.

7. Start once all App you installed.

8. I had a last Sign out problem, then Signed In again.

9. No problem anymore ... till now (2 hours working without sign out) !

The only problem I have now is two computers activated ?!?!? even if I activated only one computer.

I hope it will helps some of you.

it's never happened to me nor, it appears, to the majority of cc users.

there's probably something on your computer (eg, cleaner, av, firewall) that's causing the problem.

Thank you for the anwser, but I really don't see how my firewall, av or eg could be the problem only from time to time...
