i just finished my audition trial and bought the subscription. i updated and now it will no longer work . it starts but closes stating it is trying to initialize DLMS file. what do i need to do? Even the help chat technician could not find the problem with the 2014 version.
I have a Windows 8.1 operating system 64-bit
Here is a copy of the chat help Center discussion:
info: You are now chatting with 'Pradeep'
Pradeep: Hello. Welcome to Adobe Technical Support.
Pradeep: Hi Dennis.
info: Your chat transcript will be sent to at the end of your chat.
Pradeep: How may I assist you today?
Dennis Linam: hello
Dennis Linam: I am having problem with my Adobe audition's program.
Pradeep: I am sorry for the inconvenience.
Pradeep: Please elaborate so that I can assist you accordingly.
Dennis Linam: I used the download client to download the trial version, which worked perfectly fine. But when I upgraded my cloud and you guys received my payment. I received an update which has locked me out of the program
Pradeep: Thank you for the information. I will be glad to provide information on this.
Pradeep: Dennis, may I know what happens when you try to activate it?
Dennis Linam: I have a screenshot of the final situation that shows on my computer screen and it says something about trying to activate the DLL
Dennis Linam: the cloud updater showed that I needed to update once I bought this subscription, so I clicked on the update button and
Dennis Linam: it updated the program. I then went back to my Windows 8.1 desktop and clicked on auditions. It asked me if I wanted to delete the previous session
Dennis Linam: the first time I clicked on. Yes, and it went through a series of uploading and shut down and said the above statement
Dennis Linam: the second time I clicked on the other button and it started its process and it did the exact same thing
Dennis Linam: I had no problem in using the previous trial version, but for some reason when I uploaded the update. I cannot even open auditions now
Pradeep: Alright. I will give you a link. Please upload the screen shot so that I can assist you accordingly.
Dennis Linam: okay
Pradeep:Click here.
Pradeep: Let me know once you have uploaded.
Pradeep: Have you uploaded the file yet?
Dennis Linam: okay I have done it..., I labeled it auditions update problem Dennis Linam
Pradeep: Thank you.
Pradeep: Allow me a minute or two while I check and get back to you.
Dennis Linam: Thank you
Pradeep: Thank you for your time.
Pradeep: Dennis, please click on Continue.
Dennis Linam: I will have to start the program again
Dennis Linam: I have already tried clicking continue and that is exactly what it shows even when I click any button
Dennis Linam: But I will try it again
Pradeep: Okay. Please click on Delete this time.
Dennis Linam: When I click on the button to start the program and then click back to the website that I am talking to you on the section of the screen blacked out where the auditions start up box is. And then it again said Adobe audition cc 2014.0 has stopped working. It also states a problem cause the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if there is a solution available
Dennis Linam: I have also use the delete button and it says exactly what I just stated
Pradeep: Okay.
Pradeep: May I know what you get when you click on the 'Cancel'button?
Dennis Linam: okay I will restart it and try it because Windows close the program
Pradeep: Okay.
Pradeep: May I know the status?
Dennis Linam: it stalls and says trying to initialize DLMS. it opens the addition screen with only a white screen, and the file edit multitrack clip effects, favorites views Windows and help bar at the top.
Pradeep: Okay.
Dennis Linam: As a matter of fact, the file edit multitrack clip ethics, favorites views Windows and help bar seems to be printed twice at the top of the screen\
Pradeep: Please open the Task manager.
Dennis Linam: Okay, it is open
Pradeep: Under the processes tab in Task manager, If there are any Adobe processes running, end all of them.
Pradeep: The Adobe processes are AAM updater, AAM notifier, Adobe crash demon, CEF helper, IPC broker, Coresync.
Pradeep: Also, if you locate any other, end them.

Pradeep: Alright.
Pradeep: Please allow me a minute.
Dennis Linam: is there any way to get a hard disk of the program. Since I am a cloud member?
Pradeep: Sorry for the delay in response.
Pradeep: Dennis, I am sorry but the DVDs for CC version are not available.
Dennis Linam: is there a possibility that Norton virus protection has identified your server as a threat and blocked it?

Here is a copy of the things told to do by different users:
"You can try opening Audition by holding down the Shift key whilst clicking on the Audition icon. This should bypass any settings that Audition may have installed and just use the defaults. However I am not sure that this will work if Audition fails to find the link to DMLS on launch. You probably need some suggestions from one of the developers who might turn up here after the weekend.
I noticed looking at Audition's start up log that it looks for the DMLS link by loading "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\dynamiclink\7.0\dynamiclinkmanager.exe". So it might be worth checking that that .exe is installed in that location on your PC.
Have you checked to see that DLMS support is turned on in Preferences/Media & Disk Cache?"
what I did:
I tried using the a shift key and the program loaded with only the file bar at the top with a white page, none of the file menus at the top. The screen would work. and after a few minutes, Windows asked to close the program because it was not responding.
I do have dynamiclinkmanager.EXE in the file extension...C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\dynamiclink\7.0\dynamiclinkmanager.exe
I have completely taken the cloud program and the audition program off the computer using the control panel uninstall program feature
I reloaded both programs, the cloud program and audition 2014 with update.
I then turned off the computer and turned it back on using the restart Windows method and tried to start audition again, but had exactly the same results.
I was told to check the DL MS and make sure the preference is turned on. I cannot open the program to do this so I do not know any way of completing this process without a program that opens.
The funny thing is, the trial version worked perfectly, but when I bought the reoccurring payment program and the cloud updated 2014 audition, It never worked again. I am a student and an intern, and this program is vital to my success in school and with the radio station I am interning with. I would appreciate someone who is a technician or a programmer to help me fix this problem, or I will be forced to delete the program and stop my subscription.
Thank you for your quick response
