No, I didn't try that, because it had nothing to do with identifying the device - ADE said it needed to update, and quit, and it couldn't update automatically. So I had to download manually and install from the hard drive. Problem solved, but a poor show by Adobe, one of the big software houses. Automatic self-updating is pretty standard for even volunteer projects these days (Adium, etc.), and they even manage passwords and the whole bit. Of course, my problem may have been a rare case, but in my experience Adobe installers are wonky, at best.
