How do I install the Adobe Creative Cloud desktop app on a Mac?
These installation instructions are for UMBC owned devices that don’t already have the Adobe Creative Cloud desktop app installed. Please save and close any work you may have open before starting the installation. For license and installation issues, please refer to the Common Adobe Creative Cloud issues guide.
Download the Adobe Creative Cloud desktop app.
Control-click the installer file (CCDesktopApp_en_US_MACUNIVERSAL.pkg) and select Open.
Click Continue in the following 3 windows to proceed.
Click Install to start the installation. If you get a prompt for your Mac's credentials, type in the user name and password for your Mac and then click Install Software.
Click Close to complete the installation.
Open and sign in to the Adobe Creative Cloud desktop app. NOTE: When you open the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop app for the first time, it may automatically close and re-open. That is because it is likely updating.
In the All apps page that automatically appears, choose the Adobe desktop apps you want to install from the listed apps under Available in your plan. If for some reason you don't see the All apps page, click the Apps tab located at the top left corner, click All apps, and then click the Desktop heading to see the available Adobe desktop apps.
