"Adobe Application Manager unexpectedly quit.

[barbarakaye1]

I  paid my $9.99. Every  time I try and download Photoshop CC or Lightroom. I get this message "Adobe Application Manager unexpectedly quit." What am I doing wrong?

Hi barbarakaye1,

Welcome to the Community!

Looks like it is corrupted. We might need to install Adobe Creative cloud, lets try the below steps:

• Download and install the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool: http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
• Extract and run it.
• Select "e" for English.
• Hit "Y" for Yes if asked.
• Select Option 3 for Creative Cloud.
• Then select Option 1 for Creative Cloud Installer.
• Rename the OOBE folder to OOBE OLD from :

               Mac: MAC HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe               Win: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\

• Also, If there is a process running named 'AAM Update Notifier' or 'AAM Registration Notifier' . Kill those processes and try to install Adobe Application Manager again and check.
• Download and Install the latest version here: https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud
