Is there a technical admin out there who can assist? We are using only Adobe InDesign CC and Adobe Photoshop CC.

I've so far found Adobe CC to be very privacy invasive.

By default, the following options were/are enabled for new users:

- Creative Cloud "sync" - Automatically enabled& pointed at my entire c:/users/me/* path? That sucks.

- Desktop App(lication) Usage - Automatically enabled.   If I understand - logs actions made within the adobe app? "but not content"

- Machine learning - Automatically enabled.  "If you prefer that Adobe not analyze your files to take action and make suggestions..."

Why does Adobe enable these 3 privacy relevant (and arguably invasive) "features" by default?

There are (so far) 16 different applications from the Adobe CC suite which have tried to make outbound communications. They are:

- AAM Updates notifier Application | "aam updates notifier.exe"

- Adobe Application Manager | "pdapp.exe"

- Adobe CEP HTML Engine (InDesign) | "cephtmlengine.exe"

- Adobe CEP HTML Engine (Photoshop) | "cephtmlengine.exe"

- Adobe Creative Cloud | "creative cloud.exe"

- Adobe GC Custom Hook | "gccustomhook.exe"

- Adobe Geniune Software Integrity Service | "agsservice.exe"

- Adobe InDesign CC 2017 | "indesign.exe"

- Adobe Installer | "setup.exe"

- Adobe License Utility | "adobe_licutil.exe"

- Adobe Photoshop CC 2017 | "Photoshop.exe"

- Core Sync | "Coresync.exe"

- Creative Cloud | "adobe desktop service.exe"

- Creative Cloud Set-Up | "creativecloudset-up.exe"

- LogTransport Application | "logtransport2.exe"

- Node.js: Server-side Javascript | "node.exe"

After a fresh reboot, without starting ANY Adobe CC applications, and informing Creative Cloud NOT to start at boot, the following Adobe CC related services start automatically:

- Adobe IPC Broker (32 Bit)

- CCLibraries (32 Bit)

- Node.js

(there were several others, but I had already manually disabled them in services.msc).

Is there a guide or instructions of some sort for privacy minded users to disable everything not required to run the application offline? I would like to do this in order to minimize the memory footprint consumed by this Adobe CC suite, reduce the amount of bandwidth being used, and return to a simple "desktop app" like user experience.

Are there functions within Photoshop and InDesign that can be disabled to prevent the hellstorm of services and outbound connections from firing up?

Please advise. Thank you.

Hi,

We have a marketing department that uses the Creative Cloud team product. They have laptops running Windows 7, we do not give them local admin rights for obvious reasons.

When they try to update the CC software it comes up with an error message:

How can we allow our users to update this software without granting them local admin rights?

Thanks,

Mike

Hey All -

We have been having issues since we purchased Adobe CC for Teams.  When I download and install the CC Desktop App all the programs are showing "Try".  Why is this?  I spent $2000 on 100 seat licenses for what?

Thanks

Hello,

I work in an enterprise environment that puts all machines behind a web proxy. We recently were able to bring our Mac machines behind the proxy and as a result we're unable to install, update, or verify the CC apps on the Mac machines without turning off the proxy. Is there a list of domains or URLs that can be whitelisted so that the CC library can update and verify its apps again?

The proxy is Webroot's DWP product.

I have to purchase Acrobat Pro DC volume license for a number of employees all the time. The only documentation I can find on activating it says to sign in with my account.

This means I have 20 people with my name in the top right corner of their Acrobat. 

I am trying to support a professional environment with a user base that has to purchase through me, and I am looking for a way to avoid the home user sign in experience of "oh look it's Nancy's Acrobat, isn't that neat"

Hi ,

I have created a Adobe package using creative cloud packager on 2017.

By default i have selected all software.

I then proceeded to create a fresh OSX Siera image and begin to manually install the software.

Unfortunatley it pops up with an error message as per attached

Last week i have previously pushed the same software out through deploy studio admin.

Has anyone recently ran into these issues previously?

I work in a semi-secure environment where a variety of security scans are run on a regular basis. I'm also attempting to evaluate the newer Adobe products via trials to prepare a report on the viability of purchasing said products.

A previous attempt resulted in a trial ending (far) prematurely due to the above mentioned scans. I have the option of temporarily disabling certain scans during the trials but I have no idea which ones are the culprits.

Can anyone tell me what to avoid aside from the rather non-specific guidelines already available?

We updated our IDp certificate last week. Once we got the new certificate formatted properly we got all of our desktop users logging in via their enterprise IDs. However, the same users who had been using mobile apps (iOS & Android) were not able to login. They got access denied errors (general or 401).

We restarted browsers and flushed cache. Did a complete re-install for one user and still no change.

We also confirmed via the ATS test that all was correct with the new cert for iOS.

Adobe support had nothing and referred us here to the forum.

Anyone have any thoughts on what to check to restore access either in the Portal or at the device/user end?

Thanks

Dan

I have created the package and it takes forever to install and never finishes properly, any idea what the problem is it doesn't give any errors I just have to crash out of it after it has run for 1+hrs

Does the same on both Mac and PC

I receive the error - A valid installer could not be found, when using AAMEE 3.0 to create a CS6 Trial Package in Windows 7.  I'm following the procedure documented here - http://blogs.adobe.com/oobe/tag/cs6 Imaging CS6-Attack of the Clones.  I've tried both pointing at the DVD and pointing to a local folder, after copying the DVD to a local folder and copying the \payloads folder from the second DVD.  I know the DVD is valid because I did a manual installation.  I'm pointing at the folder that contains the Set-up.exe file, plus I've tried pointing at every other folder as well, with no success.  I have a 40 user license for CS6 Master Collection for a classroom on our campus.  I need to create a image for this classroom, and was thrilled that a solution was being provided to accomodate this, but AAMEE does not work!  I'm working in a Windows 7 environment.

On top of this frustration, my Adobe ID is not working, I've used "chat" support and phone support and I can still not log in.  They claim it has been escalated.  When I explained the AAMEE error to the phone support rep, he informed me that there was no technical support and my only option was to post the question on the forum...but you have to log in with your Adobe ID to post a question!  Round and round it goes.  So I had to create another ID under a different email, just to post my question.  I'm getting the mystery "an error has occurred, please try again", when I try to log in with my work Adobe ID.

Help! Anyone?

Hello,

Got issues when downloading Adobe Apps from Creative Cloud (Photoshop, In Design) through Cisco proxy.

I have applied the Cisco recommendations :

Resolve Adobe Updater Issues on the WSA - Cisco

I have applied the Adobe recommendations :

Proxy server in Install Creative Cloud

Advanced solutions to connection errors with Adobe Creative Cloud and Creative Suite applications

Even tried to open half of the full World Wide Web allowing the following IPs

IP addresses used in the Adobe Marketing Cloud

But my computer cannot download applications. When downloading In Design It seems that it tries to download things from Akamai Technology.

So, Does anybody can tell me why it tries to go to Akamai ?

And is there any Akamai domain, or Akamai IP range (I hope not 10 millions or IPs) that I can open to definetely resolve my issue ?

thank you

Hey

Is it possible to create SSO using ADFS to automatically sign in to Acrobat and CC? (when opening the App / logging on to the computer)

I'm able to find a guide explaining how to setup the ADFS.

Thanks in advance

Using Adobe Creative Cloud Packager from here. When it launches, the window says "Creative Cloud Packager" but the menu bar says "Adobe Application Manager." Version is 7.0.0.427 (7.0.0.427)

I am able to sign in with no problems. (Adobe Creative Cloud for Teams customer)

I am able to create packages with no apparent problems. When I deploy the package to the end user and run it, the packages I create always hang at "Running package scripts..." and then eventually fail with "The installation failed."

Here are the last few lines of the installer log on my laptop:

Feb 20 08:51:39 Brians-MacBook-Pro.local Installer[4138]: install:didFailWithError:Error Domain=PKInstallErrorDomain Code=112 "An error occurred while running scripts from the package “Complete Install_Install.pkg”."

All my packages fail in a similar way.

The applications themselves appear to run fine; When I launch the first one, it asks me to sign in and all appears to be right with the world.

Is this something I should be concerned about? It makes deployment a pain because I don't know if the installation is correct or not.

Just built and downloaded the latest version of XD and deployed (we had no choice as the previous version had expired).  THe previous version worked as expected with our setup -- we have the enterprise/educational serial number based deployment.  The newly built version does not launch directly, but instead requires an Adobe ID based login that's authorized for XD to work.

Is this a known issue?  This is causing us problems and we need an immediate solution.
