I want to change my account email address, how can I change?

When I try to change the primarily email, this error message comes:
An error occurred while performing this action. Please try again later.

What should I do?

    Thanks for the update, ​@RamrKSA.

     

    I can see that you have multiple Adobe accounts/profiles associated with your information, and the individual account setup appears to be complete.

     

    Before we suggest additional troubleshooting steps, could you let us know why you're trying to change the email address?

    For example:

    • Are you trying to replace an old email address with a new one?
    • Are you trying to stop using an Apple Hide My Email address?
    • Are you attempting to move a subscription or assets to a different account?

     

    The reason for the change can help determine the appropriate next steps, especially if multiple Adobe accounts are involved.

     

    We look forward to your reply.

    Yes I am attempting to move a subscription or assets to a different account, due to the fact that I paid it by my self.

    Hi RamrKSA, we understand this may not be the outcome you were hoping for. Unfortunately, it is not possible to move an Adobe subscription to a different Adobe ID. However, you can change the email address associated with your existing susbcription by following the steps shared above.

    We hope this helps. If you run into any issues while updating the email address, please let us know. We're happy to point you in the right direction.

    … and when trying a different device try using a mobile phone's updated non-opera browser with wifi disabled.
