Cancel Test Subscription

I don't know why I have a test subscription, there was no opt-in. Now the App synchronizes everything with the Adobe Cloud, so that I'm unable to use the Adobe Scan App anymore. I can not stop the upload to the cloud and can not cancel the test subscription.

What can I do?

Correct answer Charlie.D

First things first:

Yes, please delete all the files from my Lightroom account.

 

And now how everything happened.

So I'm just talking about the apps. I use LR on my iPhone and my iPad. I didn't use it for a while and when I opened it the last time (I guess there were a few updates in the meantime), I had to login again. The pictures I edited before were still there. My trial was activated without confirming anything (at least I don't remember, but I usually don't take offers like this) and I also didn't take notice of it. Then I imported new pictures and edited them, just wondering why I'm able to use the repair tool 😄

Then everything was done and two days later I wanted to use the Scan App and the rest of the story you know already. So I figured out, that the sync in LR was active, then I tried to delete the uploaded pictures online in the Creative Cloud, but nothing showed up there, then I opened the Lightroom Web App on my Desktop and saw that the pictures were synced (so it worked perfectly, if I wanted it to be synced 😉 ).

And then I texted here.

 

Hope this is helpful!


Hello @15885982 

The account data has been deleted.  Thanks for outlining your workflow.  Only visiting Lightroom Web could have triggered the kind of Trial that had started for your account.  The next time you sign into Lightroom Mobile, it should seem as though it's your first sign in -- the account will be pristine as if it's your first use.  I hope this unblocks your Adobe Scan storage.  Please reply back if you need anything else.

 

Kind regards,

Charlie

Hello @15885982 

Are you asking about Lightroom or Adobe Scan?  I see a free Lightroom trial is enabled for your account, and I can get that trial disabled for you, but I don't understand how that would affect Adobe Scan.  Adobe Scan should continue to work regardless if you are using Lightroom or not.  Is the problem perhaps that you signed back into Adobe Scan using a different email ID than your previous use?

 

Without really understanding the problem here, I will stop your Lightroom Trial now.  (I can re-enable it later if you like--just reply back here to let me know).  Again, I don't think this will affect Adobe Scan in any way. 

 

If you continue to have problems with Adobe Scan, please ensure that you are signed into the correct account.  If you need additional help with Adobe Scan, I urge you to post in the separate forum for that product to get help as soon as possible -- Adobe Scan forum is: https://community.adobe.com/t5/adobe-scan/ct-p/ct-adobe-scan

 

Thank you!

Thank you for your answer.

I am asking about both. Suddenly the Lightroom trial started, inlcuding
uploading my pictures automatically, and I'm not able to disable the
upload somewhere. So quickly there were 6 GB taken.

At the same time, I wasn't able to upload documents to the document
cloud in the Adobe Scan app, there it says my account has reached the
2GB limit. But there are no documents in it. Also no link to a trash, if
it exists.

This is why I posted the problem to the Lightroom Community.

I'm not able to delete the uploaded pictures. In the down left corner of
the cloud documents in the creative cloud it just says 6,7GB with a
warning sign.

I use the same Adobe ID in both apps.


So long story short: My cloud space of both apps is shared. 2GB in
total. I deleted all documents which were uploaded within the Adobe Scan
app. I logged in to the Creative Cloud and tried to delete all uploaded
pictures, but it's not possible, they are not shown there. So, the
pictures I can not delete are blocking my cloud space I need for the
Adobe Scan app to work.


Kind regards

Thanks so much for the additional details!  I understand now -- the storage quota was shared, and the huge amount of uploads from LR filled up your free 2 GB storage for Scan. 

 

I already turned off the Trial for LR, but the files that are already uploaded will remain in cloud storage. 

 

I could ask the server team to empty your account, but I worry this will also delete all the files you have in Lightroom on your device.  If you don't care about the photos inside Lightroom, and they still safely exist on your iOS Camera Roll or other location, then I can empty your account. 

 

However, if any photos inside Lightroom are important to keep (they are your only copy, or they have important edits you do not want to lose), then I would prefer to re-enable Trial for your Lightroom app and ask you to delete unwanted files (plus empty the trash in Lightroom) to decrease cloud storage used.  I can then disable Trial again.

 

Can you tell me how you wish to proceed?
