Hey I had the same issue and I was able to solve it, I would leave the steps I follow to fix

Step 1. Install Creative Cloud 5.7.0.1307 or install it from here (https://mega.nz/file/yaZBhDoB#p3nTh7-Bdg3Li1SUaAjcYd33Zh6GCkLJ87LJLtDaW9Y) This link is mine I uploaded the one I installed so do not worry .

Step 2. Before you start, please click uninstall on the installation screen for the old version of Creative.

Step 3. After the installation is done go to /Library/Application Support/Adobe and locate the folder name "Caps" and delete it or send it to Trash. "You can easily go to the location by Holding Shift+Command+G on your desktop."

Step 4. just try to install the Adobe Application you were trying to install before and it should work 100% with no issue.

I just did this and worked 100% for me. if you have any questions add me on Discord 💢FW ᵇᵉᵇᵒ💊#0880

Got it thank you so much! Is there a way for it to stop updating?

Damnbebo commented 1 year ago

@swansongss by going into setting in creative cloud theres an option there to stop from updating but it would cause some issues I just recommend reinstalling old version when ever u need a new Adobe Software

XxUnkn0wnxX commented 1 year ago

would be nice if the script were updated to use the new creative cloud app version instead of us downgrading CC for us who use CC.

As elmimmo points out here what adobe did.. https://github.com/Drovosek01/adobe-packager/issues/57#issuecomment-1513013643

here I found the last ver b4 5.10 Intel: https://trials.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/KCCC/CCD/5_9_0/osx10/ACCCx5_9_0_373.dmg ARM: https://trials.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/KCCC/CCD/5_9_0/macarm64/ACCCx5_9_0_373.dmg make sure you use Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool to nuke the currently installed ver after 5.9.0 & keep auto updates to off.

I used their CC version history to guess what the URL was from analysing the existing URL's also, their subdomain ccmdl does not work for the 5.9.0 release..

basically i installed the offline ae 16.0.1 version and i get the Error: SyntaxError: JSON Parse error: Unexpected EOF when i try to actually install it, i tried to uninstall creative cloud too but it wont let me bc it says i still have creative cloud applications installed on my laptop that requires it

Antibioticss commented 1 year ago

I see, you can install AntiCC instead, download it from here: https://www.mediafire.com/file/q01nd5grk6m7se8/AntiCC_1.7_%255BRiD%255D.dmg/file Then install this package, the problem should be fixed. :)

okay i downloaded the anticc, so now do i just install the ae all over again and delete the old one that i installed? sorry im not good w these computer stuff

Antibioticss commented 1 year ago

Yeah, install AntiCC, then run the installer again. if you have a previous version of AE, it will be replaced automatically. If you are worried about it, you can uninstall it before you install the new version.

my god worked like an absolute charm thank u so so much the only problem im facing now is that the app literally would not launch open, the icon just pops up then disappears

Antibioticss commented 1 year ago

Can you show us the crash report?

keona23448 commented 1 year ago

Can you show us the crash report?

so it doesnt show any crash reports, when i double click the ae to open it it just pops up at the bottom for a few seconds then goes away

keona23448 commented 1 year ago

i had previously installed a newer version of ae which wouldnt open either but this one would get stuck at the intialising screen instead so maybe that might b something to do w it?

Antibioticss commented 1 year ago

That's strange, try open it from Terminal and see its output, or open Console to see the logs.

keona23448 commented 1 year ago

Screenshot 2023-06-18 at 12 54 31 AM im not sure about how to open it from terminal but this is a screenshot of a crash log for the newer v of ae if that helps

keona23448 commented 1 year ago

Screenshot 2023-06-18 at 12 56 09 AM and this is the log for the current one im pretty sure? cant open it

Hi! In my folder there are no files at all whatsoever. So the routine doesn't work. Any suggestions why it's empty or another method?

You do not need to really worry about it, it would work without it.

@dereklhk1016:

Nothing to do with Adobe Packager: the crash log clearly shows that you try to run a patched version since "frida-gadget" is loaded. The crash is certainly because of a bad patch, most probably because the patch doesn't match your PS version.

There are two Library folders in every version of macOS I've used:

[a] Macintosh HD>Library

and

[b] Macintosh HD>Users>[your username]>Library

"caps" is in [a] so you can find it using only finder and its definitely: Macintosh HD>Library>Application Support>Adobe>caps

GwynethLlewelyn commented 2 days ago

To those, like @stackpredict, who still struggle with Creative Cloud constantly attempting to upgrade their apps... Creative Cloud does have, under Preferences, an option to turn off its self-updating facility:

Preferences - General

as well as an option for turning off auto-updating the apps:

Preferences - Apps

You can still get notifications for newer versions if you wish (you can also turn them off!), just to remind you that you're out of date ;-)

Something which is quite annoying is that if you have installed any "universal Adobe plugins" — those that work across Adobe applications — and you don't have the latest of the latest versions of all Adobe apps, then the plugins will not work. Of course, app-specific plugins that are installed outside the Creative Cloud environment ("old school" plugins) will continue to work as before.
