Hello everyone,
In order to complete the installation of the creative cloud applications I have to authenticate my account with my system password, but when I enter it, it doesn't work. Even if I change it and start again, no matter what password I enter, it won't work. Can someone help me?

There are two passwords that you need

1. Your Adobe ID password, needed to activate any software

2. Your system password, chosen when the machine was switched on (or known to your IT department, if any). Needed to install any software.

Be sure you know which of these two is being asked for, and be sure you know both passwords.

Oh thank you !

Unfortunately I believe I forgot my system password. Do you know how I can get it back? 🙂
