The initial install of Photoshop completed successfully. But then I get a message in the Creative Cloud app that an update is available. Every time I try to update, it fails an gives the message "Update Failed. Download error. Press retry to try again or contact customer support.(49)".

I am running 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium with Service Pack 1.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

For anyone else that runs into this issue, this problem has been fixed with the help of Vijay B from Adobe Chat Customer Support. The solution was to temporarily disable McAffee Real Time Scan and Firewall. After I did that, the Photoshop CC update run successfully.

cdraus, are you on a managed network or is this a home network?  If it is a home network please try the steps listed in Sign in or activation errors | CS6, CS5.5 Subscriptions, CS6 Perpetual -http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-issues.html

You can find more details on how to resolve these difficulties at Installation failed. Error U44M1P7 | Updates - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/error-u44m1p7-installing-upda tes-ccm.html.

It is likely that the updates are not available for direct download.

For the best assistance, I recommend our chat support at http://adobe.ly/yxj0t6

I had the same error 49 issues.  I disabled MacAfee, shut down Creative Cloud app and then launched the Creative Cloud app again.  It allowed me to run the updates this time.  I noticed MacAfee was preventing a dialogue box from coming up asking for permissions to make changes.  With MacAfee disabled, the box came up and it went through the normal update process.  I'm using Win7 Pro, x64.

Please refer to Error downloading Creative Cloud applications

Are you on a managed network?  If not then please check your Firewall software and try an alternate form of Internet.  If you are on a wireless connection try a wired connection.  If you are on a wired connection try a different cable or Internet provider.

Hi, Steve, thanks for the response, but it sounds like this is a solution for Windows?  ...I'm on a Mac.  I can confirm I am still having problems on my work computer.  I thought it might be a firewall issue, but I tried it on my home network too (Brought the Macbook Pro home from work) and still had an issue updating apps and installing.    My home computer on a different Adobe account is updating ok.

As it happens the issue reoccurred with a different error within a couple hours of posting that comment .. in the end I allowed the Adobe support techs remote access and they had it sorted within 15 minutes.  Best of luck with it Kevin.

After weeks of this I finally found a solution. This guide is hidden deep in the customer support, actually got to it via another guide for the same error that didn't help at all but I'm persistent!

https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/Download_Error_49.html

Repeated here:

Solutions

  1. Rename the 1.0 folder in the AAMUpdater folder:
    • Windows
      1. C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Local\Adobe\AAMUpdater\1.0
    • Mac OS X
      1. /Users/[user name]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/AAMUpdater/1.0/
  2. Temporarily disable any antivirus programs installed on the computer. (Check with the security software manufacturer for specific directions.)
  3. Temporarily turn off the Windows Firewall and retry installation. Turn on the firewall after the installation is either finished or failed.
  4. Erase the contents of the Temp Folder and retry the installation
    1. Windows: C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Local\Temp
    2. Mac OS:
      1. Go to the Finder.
      2. Choose Go > Go to Folder.
      3. Type /tmp and click Go.
