Adobe Creative Cloud is a software as a service (SaaS) offering from Adobe Systems giving users access to Adobes Creative Suite products for graphic design, video editing, web development, photography, and cloud services. Software from Creative Cloud is downloaded from the internet, installed directly on a local PC, and used as long as the subscription remains valid.
Adobe Creative Cloud & Work at Home Availability
Adobe Creative Cloud for Windows and Macintosh computers is available to all Folsom Lake College faculty and staff to download and install on personal (home) computers at no cost through the Adobe Work at Home Campus Agreement.
This offer is not available for students.
Adobe Creative Cloud Information
When using Adobe Creative Cloud software products (such as Acrobat Pro, Photoshop, etc.), you will be prompted to follow a particular logon sequence that uses your email address and your Los Rios W+ID for authentication.
Please following these steps when signing in to Adobe:
- Start signing in to Adobe Creative Cloud using your email address (example: dubinen@flc.losrios.edu)
- Tab or move your mouse to the password field. A new popup will appear prompting you to choose an account. You will want to choose the Enterprise ID option.
3. After choosing the Enterprise ID account, you will be redirected to a Los Rios Single Sign-On (SSO) page. Enter your W+ID and password, and then click Login.
You will now be able to use the Adobe product. This same sign-in process will apply to using Adobe Creative Cloud products at home.
