Glad that uninstall and re-install solved the issue. Out of curiosity, did you get the splash screen or an error or did nothing happen when you attempted to launch?

I got an error window stating that it wasn’t able to run on my operating system. That seemed odd.

For the record, it updated no problem on my less than professional workstation. Oh, and Photoshop loads a LOT faster now. Before it would load, then I’d have to wait about 12 seconds for some background process to finish loading before I could click on any menu bar buttons. Now it’s more like 3 seconds. Sweet.

I had a bad download on premiere I think it was. it told me it failed and asked me to reinstall the update in CC app. So I figured maybe the media encoder download had an error in it and prompted some weird shit. But all seems great now.

btw, there are also updates for a whole bunch of Adobe apps, like Premiere Pro, After Effects, Speedgrade, Audition, Dreamweaver etc. Today was a major update day for a lot of their software. For some reason they changed the splash screen on Premiere Pro only (I’m a splash screen aficionado) which had a nice one, but not the ugly Encoder and Speedgrade splash screens.

yeah I was hating the last one… took forever to propagate. glad they changed it.

I’m glad they changed that secondary splash screen for the same reason; how long it took to propogate. I was referring, though, to the initial splash screen that shows all the plugins and stuff being loaded. Now they have what looks like a boy watching a nuclear explosion in the distance. Meanwhile Speedgrade still has that ugly folded multi colored fabric thing. But, hey, I’m not a professional. I can fret about things like that 😉

haha. I’m just glad that zombie chic is gone from Illustrator.
