Adobe Creative Cloud
Computer Software
This semester Adobe Creative Cloud is FREE to DDP students. Check the hardware requirements for each software app before you download any software. A word of caution when using this free version is to always back up your work away from the Creative Cloud and please remember that the last day of the semester will end your access.
To sign up, please do the following:
General instructions:
- Once we have confirmed a student’s email address has been uploaded to the console, students should receive an activation email.
- The student should use the activation email for the initial login. It should direct them to the login portal where they will enter their email and password (or Create an account if a new user, then login).
*** Please note this is via Adobe ID Personal account, NOT a Federated / Enterprise ID
- New users can Create an Account, as described here: https://helpx.adobe.com/manage-account/using/create-update-adobe-id.html Links to an external site.. They can also be instructed to click the “Create an account” link on the Sign in page.
By the first day of the semester, you will be able to gain access after you set up an Adobe ID account using your mycod.us email address.. Choose the “Personal Account” option when logging in, which will then use the Adobe ID authentication method.
You are eligible to purchase a semi- or annual license to Adobe Creative Cloud via College Buys for $50 for six months and $85 for the year. You will have access to the cloud until your subscription ends but you can always renew it. This way is more convenient.
