For Mac:

    Close all of your Adobe programs.
    Open the Terminal (command + space bar, type "Terminal", and hit enter).
    Type "sudo nano /etc/hosts", hit enter, type your password, and hit enter.
    Scroll to the bottom of the document and copy and paste all the IP addresses from the list above.

    Press CONTROL + X, press Y, and press ENTER to go back to
he Terminal's main screen.
Paste this command "sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder && sudo dscacheutil -flushcache" and hit enter.

New IP addresses: If the error is not fixed, try adding these IP addresses: 127.0.0.1 gw8gfjbs05.adobe.io and 127.0.0.1 ph0f2h2csf.adobe.io.

Tip: If it still doesn't fix the error, you need to browse the Reddit AdobeZii community for the latest IP addresses to add.

Method 2: Firewall rule on app-in-question.exe

This is for GenP or MonkRus methods.

The below example will be for Adobe Photoshop, but the method is similar across all programs.

    Navigate to Windows > Windows Firewall > Advanced Settings.
    Select "Outbound Rules", select "New Rule", and follow these steps:
        Rule type: Program.

        Program Path: Right-click the "Adobe Photoshop" app > Open file location > Copy the URL of the file > Paste the URL into the "This program path" field.

        Action: Block the connection.
        Profile: Tick "Domain", "Private", and "Public".
        Name: Choose any name.

    Select "Finish"—you will lose internet access going out from the application but the app won't be able to check your license.

Method 3: CC loading continuously / loop (clean)

Due to CCStopper or other firewall rules created (host file that are working against each other that completely blocks the internet—the reverse of option 1).

Reverse CCStopper Rule:

    Windows > Windows Firewall > Advanced Settings.
    Check both Inbound and Outbound.
    Disable or remove the rule "CCStopper" or other firewall rules you created asked in the guides.

Reverse Hosts File edit:

    C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc.
    Right-click "hosts" file > "Open with notepad" > remove all the lines related to:
    BLOCK ADOBE # in this article, save the file, and reboot your system.

This should fix the looping and bring CC to its default behavior.

However, the internet will be active, which can cause issues for the currently installed apps.

If so, use option 2 and create an Outbound rule for the ".exe" programs that are malfunctioning.
