I have my office desktop connecting to the internet, but when I opened Creative Cloud, it says Offline, no internet connection. My coworker's CC is fine.

Lucie154A, if you are trying to use a individual Creative Cloud membership, then the computer will need access to the servers and ports listed in https://helpx.adobe.com/enterprise/kb/network-endpoints.html.  One or more of the servers/ports are likely blocked on the work network.

 

If your work's I.T. department is unable to make the changes, then I would recommend you look into a Creative Cloud for Team or Enterprise membership.  Both memberships include the ability to install and utilize Crea

It sounds like there's a conflict with the anti-virus / firewall settings and Creative Cloud.

I'm pretty sure this thread was longer once. Anyway, what worked for me, on windows, is running creative cloud as administrator. There is probably a permissions issue that could be fixed, but that works for me. Some updates later, of the creative cloud app, this no longer happens to me.

I've the same issue. And yet, it seems to update quite fine without an internet connection when it wants to. Perhaps not having an internet connection doesn't mean the same thing to Adobe that it does for the rest of us.

Similar issue to original poster,  Attempting to install Illustrator, Creative Cloud installer keeps toggling online/offline like every second.  Installer never completes.  We can't install any apps at all. Very frustrating.

The issue I think is related to a failure of Microsoft Windows to pick up the fact its online.

If the network icon (bottom right corner) says its offline, so will Adobe CC and also Google File Stream.

I don't have the fix, but I think thats the cause.

Its not time, firewall or anything else.

Its Windows being stupid.

Just an FYI if you having issues getting Creative Cloud to update.
I needed to create a group policy with these settings.
Creative cloud would only update to a particular version without them.

 

Computer Config > Policies >Admin Templates > Windows COmponents > App Package deployment

Allow all trusted apps: Enabled

Allows developement of Windows Store apps and etc: Disabled

 

 

Further to that, I still had issues on some machines.
This also had to be done
Putting this text inside a .reg and running it causes the computer to correctly believe that it has internet access.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\NetworkConnectivityStatusIndicator]
@=""
“NoActiveProbe”=dword:00000000
“DisablePassivePolling”=dword:00000000
If this still does not work, you may need to:

Install the newest LAN driver available for your system (If the below IPv4 Checksum offload option is absent)
Open device manager → select your NIC → open the Advanced tab
Locate and select IPv4 Checksum Offload in the Properties list
Set the value to Disabled
Select OK

oh wow, thank you! I was troubleshooting another issue yesterday and had disabled the Event Log. Today, my CC was showing offline and i couldn't figure out the issue. After doing 100 other things, your note here reminded me that i'd disabled the logging and now I'm back in business!

Hi @Nicky G.,

This is an old discussion from 2019 and may not be relevant anymore. 

 

Windows Event Log service is enabled by default.  Event log messages are issued by Windows-based programs and components to be viewed in your Windows Event Viewer. 

 

For best results, update your Windows to the latest release version.  I believe the current Win10 version is 2004 (build 19041).

 

If Creative Cloud keeps asking you to sign-in repeatedly, see this help article for solutions.

PERPLEX !!!
I exactly did these things, without solving ANYTHING !!
- Checked the ADSL line (by ADSL technicians)
- Checked the phone sockets
- Replaced Router
- I just FORMATTED by resetting the whole PC.
- I have installed the latest version of windows 10 version 20H2 build 19042.964
- I have the S.O. brand new with no problems, patches, and other weird things that could create problems
- I install the latest version of Adobe Creative Cloud I go to download the software for installation and AGAIN DISCONNECT LOSING THE NETWORK CONNECTION!

At this point I think the problem lies with dobe Creative Cloud Desktop !!!
Only with this software does the line drop happen to me !!!
Isn't there another way to download app SETUP files other than Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop?

PS: I downloaded all Windows 10 (4gb), now it's downloading all OFFICE365 (no disconnection !!!)
I download ADOBE updates, it disconnects and doesn't let me install anything, because it doesn't complete the download!

I chased this error for several months, coming to the conclusion that it wan't an Adobe error.

Well, it is sort of as Adobe rely on Microsoft Windows to report accurately that its online. And Windows hasn't been doing that.

So I did all kinds of fixes that broke other things.

In the end though, the laterst version of Windows 20H2, after its fully patched and updated from Windows updates, resolves it.

I also updated all drivers from Windows Updates (HP ,machines) and Bios.

BTW, 20H2 has had a second release (November) that I think specifically addresses the appears offline issue.

Same issue here. Totally frustrating. Chat tells me to delete single folders which didn't help the whole situation. So my only hope is to manually deinstall every single Adobe app & the Creative Cloud app and then try to install everything again? That's kind of a harsh offering for a SaaS based business which I pay a monthly price for.
