Hi,
I signed up today for the new Creative Cloud CS6 and I have been unable to install any of the apps in the Adobe Application Manager. The error message I receive when I try to install any of the apps is:
Installation encountered an error. Please restart your system and try again. (15)
I restarted the system and tried again and get the same error. I downloaded the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool and removed the Photoshop CS6 Beta, as well as an earlier version of Adobe Acrobat. When I try again, I still get the same error.
I have an early 2008 Mac Pro, running 10.7.3.
Please advise as I would like to get the various apps up and running. Thanks.
Have you tried downloading and installing the CS6 trials directly? Also you may want to run the Adobe Support Advisor - http://www.adobe.com/support/loganalyzer/ to analyze your installation logs.
I attempted to install the CS6 Trial and got this error when it was installing:
Inconsistency in the installer database. Please restart your computer and install again.
The error summary is:
Exit Code: 15
-------------------------------------- Summary -------------------------------------- -
0 fatal error(s), 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)
ERROR: Media DB Error : 12
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Did you restart your computer? Did it resolve your difficulties? You can also use the steps listed in Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5 -cs5.html to review the installation log manually.
I did as instructed and found the log file and found this error:
Exit Code: 15 - Media database Sync failed
According to this link (http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/installation-launch-log-erro rs-creative.html), I was to run the Cleaner Tool. The only item coming up in the cleaner tool was the Adobe Applications Manager. I removed it via the Cleaner Tool and the Photoshop CS6 Trial finally installed!
However, now what do I do in order to get all the various apps from the Creative Cloud suite?
This issue suggests that there is a problem with Adobe Applications Manager on my system. Does this mean I need to install all the applications via their trials?
Difficult to say. When you installed Photoshop you have actually reinstalled the Adobe Application Manager. You will want to still reinstall AAM from the Creative Cloud Website. Which web browser are you using? We need to remove the AdobeAAMDetect plug-in if it is still installed before you will be able to download AAM from the creative.adobe.com.
Please try to use a different browser and see whether it works. It shoud be working as there might be issues with the browser and please try to disable antivirus/firewalls

I downloaded and reinstalled the Adobe Application Manager (via Chrome) and so far have successfully installed Adobe After Effects. This is major progress, considering before all this every application previosuly I tried to install would fail.
The application manager also shows that photoshop 6 is already installed.
That link is broken for me and sends me to a page where I get this message:
Send us an e-mail.
Which sends you to another 15 pages of drivel where in the end you can't send an e-mail, this website is a bloody nightmare.
Anyway back to the real point: this is the correct URL: http://www.adobe.com/support/loganalyzer/
I'm getting error (15) as well while trying to upgrade my CS6 master collection to the additional Creative Cloud apps but posted all this in a seperate thread already.
