Re: "Sign in Required" Loop

I had the same problem on a PC. After a couple hours with Adobe TS I called Dell TS support and we solved the problem. Had a rouge program in Firefox that was trying to reconfigure my proxy settings. Deleted it. Went into my control panel and deleted some programs that were downloaded in the last couple days. Downloaded Malwarebytes Anti-malware software, ran it to double check my Microsoft Security essentials and all is well.

Go to Firefox - Tools - Options - Advanced - Settings. Check if if No proxy is checked. If there is a proxy make note of its name, delete it and check No proxy. I'm not up on Mac's so if there is a freeware virus checked on the web I'd run it. Hope this helps you.

9. Click the lock to lock the folder once more.

10. Open any CC application; this should work now! (After maybe one "Sign-In Required," that is, but it shouldn't pop up more than once!)

I had tried a number of different suggestions including deleting items in Caches and OOBE. Eventually I uninstalled everything, deleted the folders as suggested here, reinstalled CC and it worked. Thank you!

I tried all of this and it didn't fix my sign-in loop. I eventually used the Cleaner Cloud Cleaner tool and selected all. I then download the latest Creative Cloud installer and my issue was gone.

Search for AdobeCreativeCloudCleanerTool.dmg

That is a very old installation fix. No need to  uninstall anything.

Go to Applications/Adobe Creative Cloud/Uninstall Adobe Creative Cloud

You now have an option to Repair as well as Uninstall. Click Repair and that should do the trick.
