Question

Activate Lightroom Classic CC and sign in to Lightroom CC with different user name

Is it possible to activate a copy of Lightroom Classic CC on my PC with one Adobe account, and sign in to the LIghtroom CC in that copy with a different Adobe account?

It looks like signing in to Lightroom CC is automated and the credential that is used to activated the software is always used without further prompting.

I am trying to sign in to a Lightroom CC account different to the account where the software subscription comes from.

Any help is appreciated.

Regards
Ed

Hi Ed,

Only one Adobe ID can be used to sign into Lightroom CC and Lightroom Classic CC at a time. This is because both the apps uses the same catalog to sync the images across the Lightroom ecosystem.

You'll need to sign out of the Creative Cloud desktop app or from the app Help>>Sign out menu to be able to use the other Adobe ID.

Hope that helps.

Regards,

Akash

Not sure if I understand the question... is this a school/personal account?
