How to Get Adobe Creative Cloud Pro

To access Adobe Creative Cloud Pro applications on your computer, within labs and classrooms, online or within a mobile app, you will need to login with your Cal Poly Pomona bronco credentials when prompted. Please select the "Enterprise ID" or "campus/school account" sign-in option. Campus users, including faculty and staff members, who have purchased or been issued an assigned Adobe license can download and install Creative Cloud desktop applications on multiple computers, regardless of operating system. Activation is limited to two machines per individual associated with the membership. You may install Adobe CC on more than two computers, but only two computers can be simultaneously activated. All Adobe Creative Cloud applications can be downloaded, installed, and updated from within the Adobe Creative Cloud desktop app. Please use the following information below to install the Adobe Creative Cloud desktop app on your computer. Lab, classroom, and Library laptop loaner computers include the Adobe Creative Cloud applications. Classroom, computer lab, and Library laptop loaner users only need to authenticate with their Cal Poly Pomona account credentials to run the Adobe applications.

Note: If you are already accessing the Creative Cloud application via an Adobe ID, you will have the option to login with either your Adobe ID or Enterprise ID (i.e. your Cal Poly Pomona account credentials) once the migration occurs. If you have any content stored under your Adobe ID, you can follow the steps here to migrate this content to your new Enterprise account.

Creative Cloud Asset Migration (Graduating from CPP)

Graduating from Cal Poly Pomona? In that case, you may migrate your CPP Adobe account assets to a personal Adobe account. A Creative Cloud free membership includes trial versions for many of Adobe’s applications.

Once you leave Cal Poly Pomona, ensure you have ongoing access to your creative work and web portfolios — and that you can showcase your work to future employers. We suggest migrating your content from CPP cloud services to personal accounts a month before commencement.
