  • Creative office of cloud has failed to update. (Error code: 2)

    Hello

    I'm working on an iMac at work and a macbook at home.  I come into work and Illustrator cannot sync with my fonts and when I go to the cloud I get Creative Cloud Desktop could not be updated. (Error code: 2).

    I have no idea what this means and am frustrated that, even though I am connected to Illustrator and if I use Safari and go to Typekit I am connected Typekit, but when I try to sync the fonts I get a message in Illustrator telling me it is not able to update and to move towards the cloud where I get the error message.

    Tried to update the cloud app and it fails.

    Someone had the same problem?

    I'll have to go home to work on a small screen until the issue is resolved - not happy @.

    Thanks Drawingbuddy.  I also recommend review Error Code 2 has no update Creative Cloud Desktop app that provides up-to-date information on how to resolve this error.

  • Windows Update "Unknown error" Code: 8007371C for KB2207566 security update

    I have Vista SP2, have had no problems installing updates before that point.

    I tried to install this update several times and failed. I am trying to connect to the network at my University for which I need to have all updates installed, but this particular update (KB2207566) will not be installed. I tried installing the stand-alone version and have tried in safe mode, nothing works. I've heard that there may be a problem with incompatible antivirus software, but I don't know that I have that MS Essentials for the moment. I did a full scan using this program and removed all viruses we found, I scanned the drive for errors and none have been found, I used CheckSUR SFCScan, (I think that's what we called them) as they were recommended on another forum if nothing has changed since.

    Any ideas what is the problem? I still have to do a repair of the system to see if that solves this problem, but I also think to buy Windows 7 and completely remove Vista from my PC, this will solve the situation also?

    Thanks in advance.

  • My Windows Vista is not all important security updates. Error message that says that one or more components of Windows Update are configured incorrectly.

    I have tried to trouble IT 50202, but which failed due to the error 2678!  Support center has no solution.  Microsoft site does not have its own error code 2678.  Ridiculous.

    This was a huge waste of time and effort because he tries and fails to reinstall everytime I stop.

    RECAP:

    • You bought the computer in January 2009;
    • The computer came with a preinstalled free McAfee;
    • A McAfee application was permanently installed until you have installed Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) on 23 August 2012;
    • You first met the problems associated with malware (according to MBAM) in June 2010, the first year of your McAfee subscription.
    • You have problems with Windows Update (MSE) on October 12, 2013, more than a year after you have installed MSE;
    • You have improved the pre-installed McAfee free trial to the full version rather than uninstall the free trialware, running the tool to remove McAfee & then make a clean installation of the paid version.
    • You have uninstalled the McAfee application until you have installed MSE but you don't not download/run the removal tool from McAfee before installing MSE.

    MY HUMBLE OPINION...

    • It was too late for the "come to the rescue" McAfee removal tool here.
    • There is a possibility, but remote, you see the effects of an infection for a long time of a certain type (because MSE has not been installed correctly & so never worked properly due to 'remains' of McAfee).
    • The computer must be connected to the internet or local networks (i.e. other computers) in its current state. All your personal data (e.g., banking online & passwords credit card) must be considered at risk, if not already compromised.

    Then what are you doing now?

    OPTION C: Bite the bullet & buy a new computer (Win7).

    • If you want to transfer your personal data to the new computer, backup data from one or more DVDs (no shine). Perform analyses considered at least two 2 online (e.g., ESET;) Kaspersky; Bit Defender) of the DVD (s) before you transfer the data to the new computer.

  • What the? Creative office of cloud has failed to update. (Error code: 1002)

    Second time this has happened. First time I tried some of the tips of the search of the forums and CC has stagnated and then I had to get help from the Adobe Support for the operational return. Now once again. Why does this continue to be a problem even after support fixed with me. I feel like I'm frozen in time when updates are not suitable.

  • Cannot install 2 important updates - unknown error: Code 80070026 and Code 26

    For months now, I have tried to run updates for Vista Windows, but I get these two error codes. I thought I might have a virus that my antivirus regularly had not taken, I went to http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/center/whatsnew.htm and performed a full scan. There are several issues, but they have been resolved. However, I can not always install updates and I get the same error codes. Any help?

    Hi Sylvirblu,

    Thank you for visiting Windows Vista Microsoft answers forum.

    Please let us know about the updates are available for download and the failure with the error code 80070026.

    I will suggest that you turn off the Antivirus software that is running on the computer and put the computer in a clean boot environment and then try to run the Windows updates, as in this case seems to be a conflict of third party software.

    To perform a clean boot on a computer that is running Windows Vista, follow these steps:

    1. click on start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on continue.

    2. in the general tab, click Selective startup.

    3. under Selective startup, clear the check box load startup items.

    4. click on the Services tab, select the hide all Microsoft Services check box, and then click Disable all.

    5. click on OK.

    6. When you are prompted, click on restart.

    7. after the computer starts, check if the problem is resolved.

    If your problem is resolved, follow the procedure to determine what is causing the problem section in KB article to narrow down the exact source: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/331796
    In addition, refer to the section on how to restore your computer to a Normal startup mode

    Please let us know if it helps.
