HUC uses Microsoft Azure Single Sign‑On (SSO) with Adobe.


If IT has assigned you an Adobe Sign, Acrobat, or Creative Cloud License this is how to login.


Do not create a personal Adobe account and do not choose “Personal account.”


Step‑by‑Step

  1. Go to https://www.adobe.com
  2. Click Sign in
  3. When prompted for an email address, enter your HUC email address
    (example: username@huc.edu)
  4. On the account type screen:
    • Click SSO
    • If you do not immediately see Microsoft, click More
    • Select the Microsoft logo
  5. You will be redirected to the Microsoft login page
  6. Sign in using your HUC Microsoft credentials
    (same username/password you use for Outlook, Teams, OneDrive)
  7. Complete MFA if prompted
  8. After login, Adobe will show the products you are licensed for (e.g., Acrobat Pro, Adobe Sign)


After Login (Important)

  • Adobe installs a Creative Cloud / Adobe Desktop app
  • That app controls:
    • What products you can install
    • Updates and activation
  • Users should not download installers from random Adobe pages

 



TROUBLESHOOTING

                                            “Adobe is asking me to pay or start a trial”

This almost always means the user:

  • Logged in with a Personal account, or
  • Did not use the Microsoft SSO button

 Fix:

  • Sign out completely
  • Go back to adobe.com
  • Click Sign in → SSO → More → Microsoft
  • Log in with @huc.edu


                                                “I don’t see the Microsoft option”

Click More on the SSO screen — the Microsoft icon is sometimes hidden.
