Sizes of Downloads for CC

Hello Gerd,

Below table can give you the details for download size, however it may be not be precious but give you estimate size.

With CC, the workflow for software download and install is silent which may be resulting in confusion.

When you go to CC desktop apps and intiate a software installation like Photoshop then the setup files gets downloaded on your computer and the installation starts. Once the installation is complete, the downloaded files are automatically deleted  to clear up your disk space,

So, there is no downloaded files which remains on your computer once the update/installation is complete.

Installation is different concept wherein the software is installed on you computer for usage.

Since this feature is not present in CC desktop app as of now, and your advice is welcome, you may fill this wishform and log in your feature request: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform

Has this question actually been answered?

I also would like to know the size of my files residing on the cloud.  It is not obvious to me how to do this.  For ex., right clicking on them doesn't work.

Thanks.

Update:  Actually, sizes are listed beside the name of the files.

Sorry.

@rmartin215 - In the browser from the Files page at https://creative.adobe.com/files click on the View button and switch from the default Mosaic to List. You can then see the file size and even sort by file size.

Thanks, Ken,

Appreciate your prompt replies.

Unfortunately I was not quite clear.

 

I have downloaded all the apps I need already. There are updates and revisions quite frequently and it is the sizes for those that I would like to know. Even the CC Updater gets updated quite frequently, but I think this one is quite small.

 

I would like to know how much data flows through my account in order to download "x".  Any ideas on those?

 

Hi Gerd,

The data that Manish posted was pulled from the Adobe CC direct links page, which includes the file sizes for all the latest Creative Cloud apps (the  base release downloads)...

If you're also interested in the sizes and release dates for all of the CC updates to date (and going forward), then you'll find them here for all apps:

The Adobe CC Updates: Direct Download Links for Windows

The Adobe CC Updates: Direct Download Links for Mac OS

Hope that helps, and is comprehensive to what you wanted to know!

thanks to ProDesignTools!

your posted links helped a lot, as I also wanted to know the update sizes before starting the download.

after all, this feature shouldn't be too complicated to integrate to the CC desktop app?!

so, adobe, please add this request to your client's whishlist!

This is still an issue, I agree with the original poster, it should be common courtesy to list the file size of the update you are about to make in the creative cloud desktop app, the fact that this "feature" needs to be requested is a little ludicrous. I am not saying you can't find the size of the update with some googling  but really why should you have to, the point of the creative cloud desktop app is to make this stuff quick and easy. Not everyone has unlimited high speed internet connections, we need to know how large it is so we can block off an appropriate amount of time for the update or just make sure it doesn't finish our cap for the month. Adobe is an international company and should act like it.

Update:

Fyi, for anyone who wants the download file sizes (and direct links) for the new versions of the apps on Windows/Mac then you can find them here:

Adobe CC 2014 Direct Download Links – Creative Cloud 2014 Release

Would this be so hard:

I just need to know whether I can do the update now or have to try and organise to do it after hours. Size may not make much of a difference in the US but in other parts of the world it's still quite important.

Thanks for that link.

For others, if you want to know the size of each apps:

Installer file size | Creative Cloud apps

Thank you! This helps a lot!

Still no way to see the size of the app updates?

Yes. If you're also interested in the sizes/downloads for all of the CC 2014 updates to date (and going forward), they're here for all apps:
