Memory issues means Adobe Apps won't open

I started up my iMac where Safari and Office 365 products opened up as normal but any Adobe app opened only as far as the splash screen (with the spinning ball of death) and so had to Force Quit them. Memory issues may be at the root of the problem.



When this screen shot was taken only Safari, Outlook, System Settings and the Activity Monitor were open.


I cleared the Adobe Cache in Library but am at a complete loss as to what to do next.

I know you're up and working again, but I reached out to tech support myself. After a quick OS version check they said "May I inform you that the issue regarding Adobe applications not launching is known and has been reported as a bug. The engineering team is working to fix it up. In the meanwhile, could you please uninstall all the Beta applications and check if the regular apps work fine after that."


I uninstalled all my beta apps and it worked! Can't use beta apps while they fix it, but at least I'm up and running again, and a quick and pain free solution too


May be useful for someone else
