Hi!
Wondering if anyone else has encountered this bug. All my apps are up to date, and as far as I know I've succesfully uninstalled/removed all older versions but they still show on the Creative Cloud dashboard /In my case After Effects and Acrobat X). I can't open the old apps or uninstall from the dropdown menu, and I can't seem to find them anywhere else on my computer.

Anyone know how to get rid of these? Just don't want any old versions cluttering up my computer.

Use the Adobe Cleaner tool to wipe all traces of unwanted Adobe apps from your system including old versions of Acrobat, Flash Player, Shockwave, etc...  and then update your Creative Cloud desktop app.

1. Open CC Desktop App.

5. Close all apps.

7. Open CC Desktop app.

Thanks for the tip, that sounds just like what I need. However I'm running into some problems following the "Important first steps" before using the Cleaning Tool: I don't see a CoreSync folder in ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CoreSync/ and I'm not able to terminate CoreSync from the Activity Monitor, it just starts back up again instantly.

Are these precaution steps vital or can I use the cleaning tool anyway? Thanks.

Precautions are vital. What do you see in the CoreSync folder? Or is it that you can't find ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CoreSync

I can get to ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/ but there is no CoreSync folder there. However I did find a CoreSync folder in ~/Users/Shared/Adobe/CoreSync and another one in ~/Applications/Utilities/Adobe Sync/CoreSync. The first one contains only a cache_config.xml file and the second one the actual application..
