I've been experiencing the same problem in Lightroom since this morning, Photoshop and Lightroom Classic works fine.

Okay, after I received a new dynamic IP address from my internet provider, the problem disappeared?!

Hi @responsible_artistry2813,

 

Thanks for reaching out! Could you please let us know in which Adobe app you are trying to login? What error message you are getting? If possible, please attach a screenshot of the error.

 

We're here to help, just need some info.

 

Regards,

Your account is working because you have to log in on the website to post here. That makes it a system problem. You may need to delete and reinstall the Creative Cloud app.

Maybe you should post in the Creative Cloud Desktop forum, rather than in the Lightroom Classic forum.
