Overview
Adobe Creative Cloud for Mac is a highly advanced collection of software applications and services, created by Adobe Systems and aimed to streamline the process of creation and provide high-end tools for graphics designers, web developers, video editors, photographers, and others. In addition to over 15 standalone apps and accompanying tools, Adobe Creative Cloud for macOS is also highly integrated with several cloud services as well as mobile applications that bring the power of image and video editing to any place outside of your home or work.
While all of these apps can be purchased individually, Adobe has also offered subscription-based access that is managed from inside the streamlined and easy to use application. The core functionality of this app is to better organize and manage various Adobe CC apps and provide users with a quick way to access them on their home or work Mac.
Installation and Use
Adobe Creative Cloud is an incredibly lightweight application that was built from the ground up to only serve as the launcher for other Adobe CC applications. Because of that, it comes in a sub-Megabyte installation that will be set up on your Mac in mere seconds. To install it all you need to do is to follow on-screen instructions and input your Adobe profile login credentials to which your purchased apps and subscriptions will be tied to. If you don’t have a profile, you can create one immediately here.
Once up and running, the cloud application will load its single window that is separated into several key areas. On the top, you have access to the settings dropdown menu, a tabbed area with the listing of your currently active apps, available assets, a community portal, and on the bottom, the listing of all available Adobe CC applications that you have not yet gained access to. This listing can be filtered depending on the type of app (All, Graphic Design, Illustration, Photography, Video, Mobile, and Web design), as well as app versions.
Preferences window holds configuration areas for user account management, app launching, notifications, as well as a wide range of settings for Apps, local file management, download management, fonts, and more.
In the preferences window, you can also set up your connection to Behance, an Adobe-owned online platform that aims to showcase and enable easy discovery of creative works.
