I worked a university and I understand we have a subscription to Illustrator but I am having trouble installing

But... do YOU have a subscription?

Does your Cloud subscription properly show on your account page?

If you have more than one email, are you sure you are using the correct Adobe ID?

https://www.adobe.com/account.html for subscriptions on your Adobe page

.

If yes

Log out of your Cloud account... Restart your computer... Log in to your paid Cloud account
