# Creative Cloud for PlayOnLinux



**This script has not worked for some time, and since Adobe's newer installers use a form of embedded Internet Explorer that Wine doesn't support (and installing IE in the Wine prefix doesn't solve the issue), I don't think this will work anytime soon.**



**I'm leaving the code publicly available for reference, and I will accept any PRs that make it functional again, but I am done working on this. A newer version of the script without the PlayOnLinux dependency is available in the `dev` branch.**



This is an install script for [Adobe Creative Cloud](https://www.adobe.com/creativecloud.html), designed to be used with [PlayOnLinux](https://www.playonlinux.com). The script sets up the Adobe Creative Cloud desktop program, which can be used to install and update Photoshop, Lightroom, Dreamweaver, Illustrator, and other apps.

A (free) Adobe ID is required. Most Adobe applications require [a paid subscription](https://www.adobe.com/creativecloud/plans.html).



## How to use this script



1. Download PlayOnLinux from your distribution's package manager (e.g. Ubuntu Software Center) or from [the PlayOnLinux website](https://www.playonlinux.com/en/download.html)

2. Save the [install script](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/corbindavenport/creative-cloud-linux/master/creativecloud.sh) to your computer

3. Open PlayOnLinux, go to Tools > Run a local script

4. Select the install script you just downloaded



After the setup process is finished, you can open `Adobe Creative Cloud` from PlayOnLinux to download and install the apps you need. After you download an app, you can add a PlayOnLinux shortcut for it by clicking Adobe Application Manager in the app list, clicking `Configure`, and clicking `Make a new shortcut from this virtual drive`. Then look for the app you need, like Photoshop.exe, and add it.



**Tip:** Tooltips in Photoshop might not disappear automatically. You can turn off tooltips completely by going to `Edit > Preferences > Tools` and un-checking the `Show tooltips` box.



If the installer crashes, see the [Troubleshooting page](https://github.com/corbindavenport/creative-cloud-linux/wiki/Troubleshooting). If you still have issues, try [the classic script](https://github.com/corbindavenport/creative-cloud-linux/tree/classic).
