Hi I have a problem with my Photoshop and I am desperate for some help. I purchased my Photoshop in January this year so I only have it for a few more weeks before my purchase runs out but suddenly the app said I was on a trial and after 30 days said my trial expired. The same happened with my Lightroom but I managed to license the software by putting in the redeeming code but I have tried to licence the software for Photoshop but it just says that there is no subscription found. I have tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it but now it wants me to buy it again. Nothing seems to be working and I could really do with some help!

    Hello Tamara,

    when you took out your subscription how did you agree to pay? Monthly or a lump sum for a year? It sounds as if your subscription has expired-if you purchased on 12th December 2015 your subscription would end after 12 payments on 12th December 2016 and at that point Photoshop would revert to a trial consisting of the balance of the trial period you had left at the time of subscribing to the Photographic Plan. In the desktop manager go to 'manage my account' and it should tell you the state of your subscription.

    Hi Terri. Unfortunately that is not the problem. I purchased the Lightroom/ Photoshop package in January 2016 so they should both expire together in January 2017 but then they both suddenly reverted to trials in October/ November sometime. I managed to go onto my Lightroom and redeem it but at that stage the supposed "trial" for Photoshop had not expired so I had to wait until it expired to redeem it again but now that the trial has expired it will not let me redeem it. So not too sure how to get it back before it expires in January
