• CS6 Adobe Extension Manager opens in Dreamweaver, but then stalls

  CS6 Adobe Extension Manager opens in Dreamweaver, but then stops and never open anything, nor can I install anything.

  I removed and installed the Manager position twice, no help at all.

  Hi Tr_moore,

  Apologies that you have faced this issue with the extensions Manager, can you please follow the steps below and let us know if it works for you.

  Sorry, we have not clean workaround, there is a somewhat destructive solution, where in all your extensions previously installed for all products Adobe will be deleted, you need to take note of all the extensions installed for each Adobe product and install them one at a time after you follow the steps below.

  1 Goto under folder and remove it completely

  Win: C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Extension Manager CS6

  Mac: / Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6

  2 Goto under folder and remove it completely

  Win: %Appdata%\Adobe\Extension Manager CS6

  Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6

  Please note the difference in the path of Mac, there is an extra ' ~ ' to the point n ° 2

  3 uninstall the Extension Manager CS6 with Remove preferences.

  4. now install Extension Manager CS6

  We know if that helps.

• The CC extensions Manager does not see .mxp

  I can't open .mxp in the CC on Mac OS 10.8.5 extensions Manager. The CC extensions Manager does not see the files.

  I did the update and all the steps: http://helpx.Adobe.com/Flash/KB/install-extensions-Flash-Professional.html

  CC extensions Manager can't mxp extensions that have some limitations and have been deprecated in CS6. You must use the CS6 extensions Manager to convert the mxp zxp extensions extensions. There is a menu item for it. If you have not installed Extension Manager cs6, you can get it from http://www.adobe.com/exchange/em_download/em6_download.html .

• Adobe Extension Manager does not install server behaviors WebAssist MySQLi

  Recently, I upgraded my copy of Dreamweaver Dreamweaver CC. Now, I am trying to download WebAssist MySQLi server behaviors, their latest version for CC I have re-uploaded today. I also installed the latest version of Adobe Extension Manager CC. However, the installation fails with the message that the extension needs Dreamweaver 9 or a later version.

  I see that others have had problems with extensions and DW CC, but responses do not really help this problem.

  Adobe has decided to stop the extensions Manager, it no longer works, from 2015 CC and moving forward: Adobe Exchange

  You can always get EM that will work, DMXZone has a free one that seems to work fine with most third-party extensions.

  If you have PCOC 2015 (go to help > about Dreamweaver to check), you will need a third party EM.

• Installation of extensions without the extensions Manager, or a button "install".

  I can't install extensions, period.  The extensions Manager cannot me access to the CC and I don't have a button 'install' next to the Add-ons that I bought at the market from Adobe.

  Thanks for your help. It turns out that the extensions I had difficulties with require a their original expansion of the company. I had to contact the company for their own extended to the bottom of the charger.  Something Adobe fails to mention when they sell you these extensions.

  Thanks again for your help!

  Of course, I tried different combinations of re-installed and rebooted. EM remains tenacious.

  Any help?

  Please check the version of the CC extensions Manager (click on 'Help'--> 'about Extension Manager'). I assume you are using 7.0.0.347 or 7.1. Support for CC 2014 applications was added in point 7.2. Please update to the latest version 7.2.1 EM.

• The CC extensions Manager update failed

  Is anyone else having this problem with the extensions update by CC CC Manager? It fails to be updated on all attempts and retry?

  OK guys, I went to the adobe Extension Manager page and download a new copy of the complete product (and not a patch to update), installed, rebooted and it works and is updated to the latest version.

• the extensions Manager does not open, Manager application won't install

  CS6 problems.  Try to add an extension, Manager of tasks in Windows 7 does not show that ext manager is running and it is not visible on the desktop, but the program name appears in the list of processes.

  Problem with the application Manager too.  It does not work, message says 'failed to install.

  With the help of CS6 Master Suite.  I tried reinstalling original software and everything works now.  Thanks for all the answers.

• The CC extensions manager fails to start with a message "failed to initialize the extensions Manager.

  I installed via Adobe Updater CC CC extensions Manager. When I try and launch the CC extensions Manager, a dialog box appears and says: "failed to initialize the extensions Manager. It won't let me open up after I click OK and it closes.

  The CC extensions manager would conflict with Extension Manager CS6? Other possible solutions?

  I tried to restart, all the CC (and CS6 are up-to-date), and I tried to uninstall and reinstall the CC extensions Manager. Nothing has worked so far.

  Let me know... Thank you!

  Solved.

  What worked for me:

  1 remove an installed copy of the CC extensions Manager

  2. disconnect from the corporate network, log in as a local administrator

  3. download Extension Manager CC of Adobe - Exchange: download Adobe Extension Manager

  4 install

  5 kill the synchronization process of basic creative cloud with the Task Manager

  6. go in C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Extension CC\Configuration\DB Manager and remove or rename the ExMan.db file

  7. start Extension Manager and install extensions

• Profile Manager - failed to install the remote access profile in the domain environment & multi-Active Network Directory

  Hi all

  I am a COMPUTER administrator for a college and I am trying to fix what seems to be the last hurdle in getting the Profile Manager works correctly.

  I worked for a while now trying to get the Profile Manager capable of pushing the device and profiles for Mac in our group network environment. I was able to operate intermittently, but not often. Most of the time I'm unable to install the remote management profile.

  When you try to install the remote management profile, I give myself one of the two errors-

  The first error is:

  The Installation of the profile failed.

  The «TeleManagement (com.apple.config. » profile (Server.FQDN.mdm:GUID) "could not be installed because of an unexpected error < MDMResponseStatus:500 >

  (Obviously server.fqdn and GUID are placeholders for their actual values)

  

  The second mistake is:

  The Installation of the profile failed.

  Failed to contact the Protocol SCEP server to ""http://server.fqdn: 1640/CEP / "."

  

  The server Mac OS X 10.11.4 works

  OS X Server is version 5.1

  Client Mac is for most running 10.10.4

  Here's a quick run down on the environment and the steps I have already taken to solve the problem.

  • The network is an Active Directory with several networks multi-domain environment. I mainly work with two different networks, each associated with one of the two areas.
  • The Mac server hosting the Profile Manager is a Mac Pro. The two network cards is used, each on one of the two networks. The Mac server is joined to the domain in the primary forest.
  • I opened all the ports and IP ranges for Apple's Push Notification service for two on our firewall and tested networks between the two networks to ensure that the AFN is accessible.
  • I created a static DNS entry for the server in the DNS zone for the main domain. I also have a separate DNS zone for the DNS record for the interface on the secondary network. I also confirmed that Macs see the correct IP address of the Mac server for their network.
  • I tried to change the settings for network access for the Profile Manager. The first error seems to happen when the Profile Manager are restricted to the network the Mac client is not connected. This same error also occurs if I open Manager profile access to "all networks".
  • I have experiemented with the different certificate types. In general, I use the self-signed certificates that are generated automatically. In this scenario, I install the profile Trust first (which works seamlessly regardless of network or domain). I also tried to use a certificate for Code signing signed with our own CA to sign the profile of remote management. The same errors will occur no matter what certificates are used.
  • The second error occurs when the access profile manager is limited to the same network that is connected to the Mac client
  • I ran Wireshark captures on several client computers, as well as on the Mac server interfaces and haven't seen any traffic blocked or rejected that seemed related to the Profile Manager
  • I've deleted and rebuilt my OD master
  • I also scoured newspapers for clues Profile Manager and haven't found much
  • In addition, I have also studied the problem and error codes/etc widely and have not found a lot of useful information
  • I don't know there are any other troubleshooting steps I took as well, but I've been question bout this for awhile and I don't remember everyone.

  That's a strange thing - I had it working for Mac on the main network and the domain. However, I discovered that the Mac on the secondary network and the field was unable to download the profile of remote management. This is when I started to change the Profile Manager, access network, which eventually introduce the problem on Macs connected to the primary/field of experimentation network. Change access return settings in Profile Manager does not restore functionality for pimps who worked.

  Another thing odd in this test scenario all - Mac on the network high school/area would not install remote profile unless management I temporarily moved it to the main network (I do not untie / reassign to one the main domain on these Macs) I could get the profile of remote management to install and then pushing profiles has worked. Even more strange, it's the Mac that I had to move temporarily secondary network to the main network to allow remote management profile install only works always as long as the Profile Manager are restricted to the secondary network and 'the Mac'. However, Macs in the same room, on the same network in the same field, using the exact image even get the errors described above.

  The only thing I have not yet done is delete/reconstruction Profile Manager. I would really like to avoid this if possible. Solutions that involve something like Casper or other software integration AD for Macs are also a non-starter.

  I'm happy to elaborate if necessary. I appreciate the help.

  Okay, I think I can find the root cause.

  Before this discovery, I had completely rebuilt Profile Manager. Now, I managed by pushing the management profile remote for Mac in the two fields/networks. However, many of them still refuse to install remote management profile.

  Macs who encounter the problem are all were imaged using NetRestore using an image captured from an another similar iMac. IMac even that was used to build the image has now been reassigned in a test of Mac. I found that when you attempt to register one of the Mac who had received this image it shows already as "registered" when you go to "mydevices" on my Mac server. I also noticed that they all have the serial number of the test Mac when viewing their "register". Among the issues of Macs, I activated the lock of the device from the page "mydevices" for the so-called problematic Mac registered (showing the serial number of the iMac used to create the image) and it locked the iMac used to create the image - not the Mac issue.

  This tells me that the CID (or Mac equivalent) is set on the Mac CID used to create the image for all of the Mac said image was deployed to. If it's a Windows box I have a sysprep prior to deployment or could perform a rearm after the fact. I am unaware of how to perform similar functions in OS X.

  I tested also since on some Macs that do not have this image, and they are able to register and install the profile of Managing remotely with success.

  If anyone has any suggestions on how to reset the CID (the computer ID) under OS X, I'd appreciate it. Thank you.
