How can I manage my Adobe MAX 2026 notifications

I’m getting Adobe Max notifications when I only chose to receive app updates and fonts.

Super annoying! How do I stop the marketing notifications?

    Hi everyone. I’m sorry about this - we’re using a new platform for the MAX notifications this year and this bug slipped through. The team is working on an immediate fix to not keep alerting you of the same notification. We’re also working to ensure the system honors your notification preferences - this fix is a bit more involved but we’re prioritizing it.

    This is very irritating.  I don’t want any marketing notifications, and I have *all* the available settings configured correctly, and they are still coming anyway. Totally disrespectful.

    This such an irritation. Marketing notifications are OFF.

    Two days in a row now I have this Adobe Max notification.

    I’m taking time away from photoshop work to complain here about it because it is a nagging irritation in my day that needs to be fixed.

    It’s certainly annoying to be paying so much for their software and they treat you like it’s adware flooded with spam.

    I am getting this annoyance as well. There is no option to turn this off as the options in CC Desktop App reflects the option to toggle Events and Adobe Announcements OFF. 

    This is the notification that keeps showing up every day in Creative Cloud Desktop. You see it in your task bar in windows with a red dot on the icon and when the program launches, you see it on the Bell Icon. You click the bell icon, and that notification is there. You would THINK that clicking it off with the X would dismiss it entirely and forever… newp. It comes back the next time the program launches and no way to toggle the events/adobe annoucements off. I have looked all over my account options to fix this to turn this off and I am not able to do anything to fix this issue. Please look into this because I do not want to wait 30 more days until the event is over for the notification to go away on its own.

    Where can I turn off the ‘Join Adobe MAX Online for free’ notification that keeps popping up in my Creative Cloud app? I keep unchecking it and it comes right back. It is driving me insane and will not go away. I went through all of my Adobe account settings as you suggested but cannot find the option to turn off marketing notifications in Creative Cloud.
