I bought a Seagate HD and it's supposed to come with a free photography package?

I bought a seagate external HD (backup plus 2TB), and it's supposed to come with some sort of offer for a free photography package.  Beyond that information on the product, there's no instruction whatsoever on how to actually redeem that offer.  Anybody know how I do it?  To further complicate it, I already have the CC photography plan that is offered, so can I still get this offer?

Thanks,

Elana

According to the Seagate website, you redeem 2 months at product registration

Backup Plus Portable Drives: Portable & External Hard Drives | Seagate US

"1 Two-month membership to Adobe Creative Photography Plan is redeemable during product registration."

Given that Photography Plans are only available as annual plans, that's 10 months to pay for someone who only wants the freebie out of curiosity.

A couple of months ago I've bought a Seagate disk with two months of Lightroom promo and it had activated OK. But now I've bought two additional disks, registered them, received the activation link, and now the activation code is rejected saying that it has already been used up. But I'm sure the disks came new, unused, unopened and from a reputable store, so nobody could register for the action with my serial number.

I wouldn't be surprised if Seagate is limiting redemptions to one per customer. 

Contact Seagate.

John, the offer is also aplicable to trial plans, where instead of 30 free days you will get the total 90 days of unleashed lightrooming, not bad at all

A Creative Cloud free trial is 7 days, not 30 days.

After 7 day trial,  it reverts to a paid plan unless the user cancels within the 14 day grace period.    Beyond that, a  cancellation before the 12th month incurs a 50% penalty fee for remaining months of service.   See Terms below.
