Creative Cloud app opening blank

I'm trying to open the creative cloud app to download Bridge, but this is how the app opens:

Nothing ever loads into the window. I've tried unistalling and reinstalling numerous times. I tried reading through other comments that sounded similar, they suggested restarting the computer and reinstalling, or using the creative cloud cleaner app. Nothing has worked. I'm running Mac OS 10.7.5

Hi bobbyo2005,

Please navigate to ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE/opm.db and trash it. Launch CC desktop and try to sign in.

I'm in the folder, but I'm not seeing any opm.db file

I tried doing a search for it too, and nothing came up

I finally found the solution for me at least. I'm on a mac and don't have the opm.db file either. What DID work for me is opening System Activity Monitor and terminating all Adobe processes. Some won't seem to go away but Creative Cloud window finally displayed my apps.

I have a Mac with OS X 10.10.5 and this finally worked for me. My Creative Cloud screen was totaly blank. It does not even give me the "Creative Cloud Title".

I had to do several restarts. I think it has something to do with fonts. I am using Suitcase Fusion 6 (17.3.0)

I have tried all the recipes for the fix, but have found that they are all only temporary. I can turn off all the Adobe actions in the Activity Monitor, get Creative Cloud to display my apps, then when I go back to Creative Cloud again, I can open all the menu items except the apps. So I get to start the process all over again. Hey Adobe...I think you have a bug to fix here.

I use a Windows 7 Home Premium OS and still did not have any luck after deleting that file. I try opening it back up, and the file reappears on its own just like the OOBE folders after deleting them like said to do in other forums. I've tried uninstalling, restarting my computer, and then reinstalling, but it still is blank. I need Flash Professional CC in order to complete my course this week at Art Institute of Pittsburgh - Online Division, but unfortunately I can not download Flash in order to complete the assignments. The only options I get are for "Help", "Pin to Notification Area..", or "Quit". It is blank like in the photo above.

I have Windows 7 Premium.

I've tried all the following in the previous posts to no avail, except KarlRempel's solution worked. Having a new account was the only way for it to work and I did not want that.

I finally figured out the root of all evil. The ampersand in Windows user folder name (not the Windows displayed user name).

If you have ampersand (&) or other non-alphabet characters in windows user folder name (Example: C:\Users\Bob & Mary), then Flash Builder will fail to install (happened to me), Creative Cloud will display white screen, and/or other miscellaneous problems.

I confirmed this to be true and works:

1) I had blank Creative Cloud window as shown in the first post.

2) I renamed the display username and window user folder name by doing the instructions here:

   http://www.ghacks.net/2011/03/28/how-to-change-a-windows-account-name-and-user-profile-folder-name/

   (Example: Change from "Bob & Mary" to "Bob n Mary" - without the quotes)

3) After logging back in my newly renamed account, I opened Creative Cloud and login interface shows up! 🙂

The blank screen returns almost weekly.  I have done all these steps. What works for me is opening the Activity Monitor ( Mac) and quitting all Adobe processes. Then I re-launch Creative Cloud. Then it is fine, but next week it wont be.

I quit Adobe CF Helper & Adobe Desktop Svc and that did the trick. They both have the Creative Cloud icon next to them.

This is the only thing that worked for me too. Very irritating that this keeps happening. When will this issue be resolved for good?
