Adobe applications are no longer individually listed in Software Center, but instead users will need to install the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop application. From within this application they will be required to login with their email address and email password (NetID). After logging in they will be able to install items without administrative privileges as pictured below.
PLEASE NOTE: This application will UNINSTALL most existing Adobe products on the computer and require a restart to actually use properly.
Adobe Federated Licensing Portal
Campus staff (currently only full-time) have been added to the Adobe Federated licensing portal. Although the email notification is disabled sometimes Adobe sends the email anyways. The email can be disregarded as the apps will be delivered via the respective software center.
Available Adobe Software
Acrobat Pro | InCopy |
Installing Adobe Applications
All Adobe Creative Cloud applications must be installed through Software Center (Windows) or Managed Software Center (Mac).
With NetID credentials, users are given two active installation sessions of Adobe products. Upon attempting to use a third installation, users will be presented a window to sign out of one of the other devices to deactivate a previous session. This will not uninstall the Adobe programs. This will simply log you out from your Adobe session. When/If you return to the deactivated computer, you’ll be able to repeat the process and re-activate your session.
If this is a computer used by faculty or staff then you should be able to do the install through Software Center or Managed Software Center
If this is a computer that will be used by student employees you will need to request a ticket be created following the instructions below.
