Before Use

🍎Only for macOS 12.0+.

If you like Adobe Downloader, or it helps you, please Star🌟 it.

  1. Before installing Adobe products, the Adobe Setup component must be present on your system; otherwise, the installation feature will not work. You can download it through the built-in “Settings” in the program or from Adobe Creative Cloud.
  2. To enable smooth installation after downloading, Adobe Downloader needs to modify Adobes Setup program. This process is fully automated by the program and requires no user intervention. Many thanks to QiuChenly for providing the solution.
  3. If you encounter any problems, don't panic, contact @X1a0He on Telegram or use the Python version. Many thanks to Drovosek01 for the adobe-packager
  4. ⚠️⚠️⚠️ All Adobe apps in Adobe Downloader are from official Adobe channels and are not cracked versions.
  5. Do not use an external hard drive or any USB to store it, as this will cause permission issues, I do not have the patience to solve any about permission issues

FAQ

This section will be updated periodically with meaningful issues that have been raised.

[NEW] About error codes and Helper

Before version 1.3.0, many operations required users to enter passwords because root permissions or higher permissions were not obtained

Therefore, we introduced the Helper mechanism in version 1.3.0. You only need to install the Helper and then the subsequent Setup component processing. Product installation no longer requires entering a password

You may see relevant prompts in the upper right corner. Please rest assured that your system is very safe. This is because of macOS's Helper mechanism and signed pop-up windows

If you are still worried about problems, please find a professional to check the relevant code, although it is futile

Explanation of relevant error codes

  • 2700: It is unlikely to occur unless the Setup component processing fails

  • 107: The downloaded file architecture is inconsistent with the system architecture or the installation file is damaged. It is unlikely to occur in version 1.3.0

  • 103: There is a permission problem. It is unlikely to occur in version 1.3.0

  • 182: The file is incomplete or damaged, version 1.3.0 is unlikely to appear

  • 133: Insufficient system disk space

  • -1: The Setup component was not processed or failed to process, please contact the developer

  • 195: The downloaded product does not support your current system

Questions about the Setup Component

Its mentioned in the usage instructions that to use the installation feature, you need to modify Adobes setup component. You can find details in the code.

Why is this necessary? Without modifications, installation will fail with error code 2700.

Does the setup modification require user intervention?

No, Adobe Downloader automates the setup component handling, including backup. All you need to do is enter your password when prompted.
