The user has an Adobe ID, belongs to BUSINESS_ID and has an assigned Adobe Acrobat Pro 2024 for Teams license in the administration console - what should I do to have access to the assigned Adobe Acrobat PRO 2024 for Teams license after logging in?

1. The user profile cannot be selected upon first login,  the authentication process is running correctly,

(When logging in with the account details in a browser, the user has two profiles: business and personal. The license is attached to the business profile.)
2. Why is there no access to the assigned license and the ability to activate the product?
  After logging in, you'll see your personal ADOBE ID account. The pop-up window offers the following options: purchase start the free trial version log out/exit Adobe

    Hi ​@Anna_Katarzyna,

     

    Thank you for reaching out. We know how frustrating it is to have a license assigned and still land on a purchase or trial screen.

     

    What's happening is that after signing in, Acrobat is loading your Personal profile instead of the Business profile where your Acrobat Pro 2024 for Teams license lives.

    Please work through the following steps in order:

     

    Step 1 – Sign out and sign back in with the correct profile: Sign out of both Acrobat and the Creative Cloud desktop app. Relaunch Acrobat, enter your email, and when the profile chooser appears, select your Business profile, as this is where your Teams license is assigned.

    If the profile chooser doesn't appear, your account may be set to automatically select a profile. To turn this off, sign in to https://adobe.ly/49L5eJE, go to Account and security > Sign-in and security, and turn off Select my profile automatically. Then sign out of Acrobat and sign back in.

     

    Step 2 – Launch Acrobat from the Creative Cloud desktop app: If Step 1 doesn't resolve it, close Acrobat completely (File > Exit) and relaunch it directly from the Creative Cloud desktop app rather than a desktop shortcut or taskbar pin.

     

    Step 3 – Verify your license assignment: Sign in to https://adobe.ly/49L5eJE and select View all apps and services to confirm the Acrobat Pro license is listed under your plan. If it's not showing there, please ask your admin to check in Adobe Admin Console > Users that the license is still actively assigned to your Account.

     

    If none of the above resolves it, please follow the remaining troubleshooting steps here: https://adobe.ly/49dSsTP

    Let us know how it goes, and we're happy to help from there.

     

    Thanks,
    ^BS

    Hi, ​@BaniVerma 

    Thank you for the explanation.The license is correctly assigned to the user in the admin console.After completing the indicated steps, you can select the user profile, but Adobe Acrobat still won't launch on any of the profiles.Consulting with the licensing provider helped:1. I uninstalled usinghttps://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/Labs/cleaner.html 2. I installed using the installer provided by the provider: https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/download-acrobat-pro-2024.html Now, after logging in to the user's business profile, the program starts.In summary, the program cannot be launched after installation using the package shared with the contract administrator in the admin console. Everything indicates that the package shared there is defective, and I don't know where to report this. link to the package after installation which cannot be run on the admin console: https://adminconsole.adobe.com/8C5982C16A0B5F8A0A495CBF@AdobeOrg/packages/pregenerated-packages/single-apps

    Hi ​@Anna_Katarzyna ,

     

    Thank you so much for coming back and sharing what worked. We're really glad to hear Acrobat is now launching correctly after reinstalling via the official installer.

    Your detailed follow-up is genuinely helpful and will benefit other users in the community who may run into the same situation.

     

    Regarding the pre-generated package issue you've identified: the best way to report this is by opening a support case directly through the Admin Console > Support > Create Case.

    When submitting, please include the link to the specific package and a description of the behaviour you observed (installs successfully but the program cannot launch).

    This will allow our support team to investigate the package and address the issue at the source.

     

    Thank you again for taking the time to share all of this. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you need anything else.

     

    Thanks,

    ^BS
