Upgrading Adobe for Windows
Upgrading Adobe for macOS

Overview

Adobe Creative Cloud allows its users to access a suite of applications that can be used for graphic design, video editing, as well as variety of other functions. There is now a new campus licensing for Adobe. It will be installed by default on your computer.

Signing in

The new Adobe console offers a simple sign in to get to the Adobe applications that you need faster, without need for ITS to approve any new installs.

Step 1

Open the Adobe Creative Cloud Application either from the desktop or the start menu.

Step 2

Type in your NetID@tamu.edu (You must use your @tamu.edu address since the @arch.tamu.edu will no longer be used for logging into the Adobe console) and click continue.

Step 3

If this second screen appears for you, click on “Company or School Account”

Step 4

Enter your NetID password and complete the DUO Prompt on the next screen.

Step 5

Now you are logged in and can choose what applications you would like to install. This updated version of Adobe allows for you to install and update applications without administrator permission. To install the Apps, just scroll down on the first page and click install as seen below.
