    check your account, https://account.adobe.com and verify everything is what you expect.

     

    then sign out of the cc desktop app

     

     

    then exit the cc desktop app and reopen it.  sign in with the same adobe id/pass used to confirm your subscription.

    Thanks for posting, Ceylinn.
