Franklin University full-time faculty and full-time staff are permitted to obtain a license to Adobe Creative Cloud to use on their university-issued computer. Adobe Creative Cloud is a suite of software which can be used as needed. Most commonly, many full-time faculty and full-time staff members use Creative Cloud to access Adobe Acrobat.
Steps to Gain Access
1. Reach out to the Help Desk to setup your Creative Cloud license. In many cases, this step may have been taken care of by your hiring manager.
2. After access is granted, sign into the website adobe.com. You can also sign into the Creative Cloud application if it has already been installed on your computer. When signing in, use your franklin email address.
3. Upon entering your email address, you may see this screen the first time. Select the following option if so:
- Older Accounts: if your account has yet to be migrated to use your Franklin password, you may need to select Personal Account to use a non-Franklin password to sign in.
- Newer Accounts: Select School or Company Account to use your Franklin password for the login.
4. Next, you may encounter this screen the first time you log in. Always select the AICUO option.
5. Enter your password when prompted. For most new accounts, this password is your single-sign-on (SSO) password as used to access your computer and other Franklin applications such as your email.
You have now signed into Adobe using your faculty or staff account and can manage applications at your discretion.
