Step-by-Step guide
- Uninstall any older versions of Adobe software.
Open your web browser and navigate to http://account.adobe.com.
Sign in using using your myid@uga.edu email address, then click Company or School Account. You will be redirected to the familiar UGA Single Sign-On screen where you can enter your MyID and password.
Warning You MUST use the format myid@uga.edu on the first screen. You will not be able to log in using your alias email address (such as firstname.lastname@uga.edu).
The Adobe home page may look a bit different depending on your browser and if you've logged in previously but you should see your name displayed on the left side of the page. You will see the headings Profile, My plans, Common tasks, and Helpful resources.
- Click the "View and download my apps" link below the Common tasks heading.
- From there you'll be taken to the All apps page. Scroll through the list to find the program you'd like to install, then click the corresponding Download button.
- Click OK when the "Permission may be required" window appears and save the set up file.
- Run the set up file. It will open a browser window to authenticate your account.
- Install the software.
- Select your skill level.
- Select the closest description that fits you.
- Select who you are downloading the software for.
Install the software. Depending on your system resources, this may take a while.
Info The Adobe CC app will also be installed. The Adobe CC App can not be uninstalled until all adobe products are removed from your computer. You can use the Adobe CC app to install other Adobe products, too. It looks nearly identical to the version you see in your web browser.
