Who will perform the installation of this software?

End users can easily install this software. After enrollment has been completed you will receive an email directly from Adobe granting access to the software. Software will be available in the Creative Cloud Desktop app for quick access or you can login from adobe.com to download the software titles you need.

What if I already have an Adobe subscription?
Students who already purchased a subscription through Adobe using their SUNY Oswego email address and wish to purchase through the SUNY Adobe Storefront should follow these instructions:

• You should wait for your existing subscription to expire or cancel it before purchasing from the SUNY Adobe Storefront as you’ll be using the same SUNY Oswego email address for the SUNY Adobe Storefront account.
  • You can cancel your subscription anytime via your Adobe Account page or by contacting customer support. Please visit Adobe subscription and cancellation terms and refund policies to know the best time to cancel.
• Just prior to expiration/cancellation of your existing account, it is important to download any Adobe Cloud files you wish to keep. Your Creative Cloud files are stored on your desktop and the Creative Cloud servers. If you cancel or downgrade your paid membership, you can still access all the files in the Creative Cloud folder on your computer and via the Creative Cloud website. Your account will be downgraded to a free Creative Cloud membership.
• Just prior to expiration/cancellation, disable any auto-renew you may have setup. 

Students who already purchased a subscription using a non-SUNY Oswego email address and wish to purchase through the SUNY Adobe Storefront should follow these instructions:

• You can purchase from the SUNY Adobe Storefront at any time, but it may be more cost-effective to let your existing subscription run out or cancel it.
  • You can cancel your subscription anytime via your Adobe Account page or by contacting customer support. Please visit Adobe subscription and cancellation terms and refund policies to know the best time to cancel.
• If you purchase from the SUNY Adobe Storefront just before the expiration/cancellation of your existing account, you may be able to migrate files to the new account. Otherwise, make sure to download any Adobe Cloud files you wish to keep.
• Your account will show 2 profiles one for SUNY Oswego and one for your personal profile. You can manage your personal profile and subscription after signing into the SUNY Oswego account.

What if I will be graduating or leaving SUNY Oswego?

• Alumni and non-active students are advised to Move their Adobe assets and follow any additional steps. You can migrate to a personal account by going to graduation.adobe.com. Be sure to download any assets before graduating or leaving SUNY Oswego to prevent data loss.
