I have recently formatted my HD and started a clean install of Windows 7 64bit.
A couple of days ago I installed CC logged in and installed Acrobat Pro with no problems. This morning I need Photoshop so I tried to login to CC and it told me an update was available and it wouldn't let me continue without installing it. So I installed it and restarted my PC. Then when I started CC it asked login details again as soon as I enter them I get "You've been signed out". I have tried at leaset 10 more times. Still I can't get logged in. I have tried changing my password though my account on the adobe website but no joy with new password either. I have uninstalled Acrobat & Creative cloud manager deleting relative folders from Appdata and reistalled but still I get "You've been signed out".
Does anyone have any ideas how I can get logged in ?.... deadlines are pressing and I am running out of patience not being able to use software I rely on.
Thanks in advance
Greg

Hi Jkleinschmidt,
Can you confirm which version of the Creative Cloud app you have?
It should be listed on the Account tab above your Adobe Id (my screenshot is a little dated)
(click to view larger)
Thanks,

Hi David, I don't seem to have those options. Here's what I see:

Sorry, forgot you couldn't get into the app. Could you right-click get properties on the Creative Cloud executate instead. It should be here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Creative Cloud\ACC
or minus the (x86) on the 32-bit OS
The version should be under the Details tab.
Thanks

David, the details say...
File and Product version 2.2.1.260. Date last modified 11/5/2013.
Also, I just notified my IT dept that this issue was occuring. They believe it's an issue with the way Creative Cloud handles a proxy server.
I have a temporary fix that may help others who are struggling with this same issue:
1. Go to Windows "Internet Properties" > Connections tab > LAN settings button.
2. Uncheck "Use automatic configuration script" if the checkbox is checked.
3. Close CC and restart.
This worked great for me, though each time the proxy server changes this issue will occur - until Adobe issues a fix.

That is the latest version and thats for sharing the details about the proxy server.

Thank You! Finally I can install apps.
In my case I just unchecked the automatic detect settings (Win 7).
I now have the issue with the spining icon under home, files and fonts which was also a problem I have had in the past. So I guess I wont be using those.

I had the same issue Mueller Design – if you download the trial from http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=acrobat_pro&loc=us&promoid=KHXXW and then license it with your CC credentials that will get you up and running.

Hi Jeff,
I am thinking you should never update CC Desktop, everytime I do I have major problems. Today it started again. The last time after spending several nights and many hours online I just deleted all my apps and used the cleaner tool and did a complete reinstall. I wish I could bill abobe for my time lost. I would pay for my license for years to come.
Today I updated CC Desktop and when I sign in it says you been signed out. I've had a web session going or over an hour. Same as you. I can sign in from a browser no problem, changed password rebooted and still no luck.
This is some of my communication with the chat person. IT makes me nuts the questions they ask. The caps are me yelling .
Hi, there are 1 customer(s) in line ahead of you. We'll be with you as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience.

OMG that is hillarious, tragic and worrying.
It is also almost identicle to the conversation I had except the second person picked up the problem a little quicker instantly passed me on to technical assistant
How long are we supposed to wait to be able to use our software??? Can they not just issue a roll back to the previous version for now so I can work!!

Pramod: Hello. Welcome to Adobe Technical Support.
Mike Mueller: Congratulations, you are the 5th person I've spoke with this morning. Let me try to explain this as simplying as possible because no one else seems to understaend. I have Adobe Creative Cloud DESKTOP APP installed. This morning I got a message that there was an update for that app. Not the applications with in the app but for the desktop app itself. When you open the desktop app it has to boxes to fill in. Adobe ID (email address) and Password. Above it says sign in with your Adobe ID and below it has the Blue Button with the words "Sign In". When I put in my information and click the sign in button it goes to a new screen and say "You've been signed out" Please sign in again. And another Blue button to sign in. Which repeats the whole process.

You are now chatting with Sumukan.
Sumukan: Hello! Welcome to Adobe Customer Service.
Mike Mueller: hi
Sumukan: Hi Mike.
Mike Mueller: hi
Sumukan: I see that you want to cancel your subscription.
Mike Mueller: no
Mike Mueller: I want a refund for all the time I have wasted with technical support trying to fix the CC Desktop app
Mike Mueller: I have been online for 3 hours
Sumukan: I am sorry this situation happened to you.
Mike Mueller: Thats ok its the third time its happened
Sumukan: An annual subscription requires a commitment for the full year and monthly payments. If you decide to end a one-year membership before the 12-month period is over, you are charged 50% of the remaining amount left on your contract.
Sumukan: You have to pay $216.
Sumukan: I understand that you would like to cancel your membership, and I can take care of that for you. However, would you be willing to continue your membership with an annual commitment if I can offer you the next month of your membership for free?
Mike Mueller: I DO NOT want to end the subscrition
Sumukan: May I know which month's refund you are requesting for?
Mike Mueller: I want a refund for the terrible customer service that was not able to fix problem after 3 hours on line. How about the last 6 month, that would barely cover my costs for the time lost.
Sumukan: I am sorry Mike, We do not have option to provide refund for 6 months,
Mike Mueller: How about free for the next several months
Sumukan: In this case, I can provide a 1 month credit for your subscription, Is that okay for you?
Mike Mueller: Not really, how about 3 months
Sumukan: I am sorry Mike, I can provide you 1 month credit but not more than that.
Mike Mueller: Ok, that will do . thanks for the $50, that will barely cover the time I lost in the first hour online being transfered to endless techinicians. What a great company Adobe is!
Sumukan: I want to assure you that Adobe does care for it's customers. I would like to tell you that this is a rare incident.
Sumukan: May I go ahead and add one month credit to your subscription?
Mike Mueller: Its happened to me every time I update CC desktop and if you searc h
Mike Mueller: Yes
Mike Mueller: If you search on your own forum you can see that
Mike Mueller: Yes add one month
Sumukan: Thank you for confirming, Please stay online while I do this for you.
Mike Mueller: of course

We are having the same issue with both creative cloud computers at work. We have two different accounts, and neither are working after the update. We have tried all the advice listed and to no avail. Trying to sign into the Creative Cloud Desktop App immediately kicks you back out, and asks you to sign back in. We can sign into adobe.com without any issue. If I try to launch any of the installed Creative Cloud Programs (like Photoshop), I am directed to sign-in. Doing so brings up the Adobe Software License Agreement. After agreeing, I am presented with a Photoshop CC Trial, even though I logged in with an active CC account. From this screen I am given two options: "Start Trial", or "License This Software". Clicking on "License This Software" causes creative cloud to pause for a while, then returns an error message: "Internet connection required for subscriptions".
All applications worked without issue prior to the update. Since we are paying for the right to use the software, does adobe reimburse us for the time that we are denied access? We have deadlines that have to be meet; not being able to use software that we have paid for is incredibly frustrating.

Jeff,
The App manager fix does not work.
I spent hours uninstalling all my apps, deleting all adobe folders, rebooting several times, and trying a fresh clean install both prior to and after using the patch and I still cant sign in or use any of my apps. IS somebody working on the CC desktop app to find a fix?
Similar problem accoured several months ago and the only thing that worked was what I just did above, ubforunately that was not the case here.
Mike
