MB_James,
Did you ever get this fixed? I have te exact same problem, with a fresh Mavericks install. I have also tried it on Snow Leapard, with the same effects, it does go alot farther in the install, but still fails. I did all the uninstall, cc clean up tools, and disk utilities (rights issues) fixes that were posted on simular forums. So far nothing works with the packager. I was able to get a install finished by using the "Creative Cloud" found after loging into creative.adobe.com. The problem with this is after you image a install the licensing breaks, like with the CS6, and CS5.5. The new CC packager does not have a serialization side to fix it. Any infomration would be greatly appriciated! Have a great weekend.
