Question

I cannot use Adobe Acrobat AI despite booking

Hello. As a teacher, I use Adobe Creative Suite and have now also purchased the AI ​​Assistant. However, when I click on the AI ​​Assistant, I still get a prompt to purchase a subscription, even though I clearly see in my account that I have purchased this option.

 

Adobe offers the option to use the software on two devices. So I did this on my laptop and on my PC. It works on the laptop, but not on my PC. However, since I work with my PC at home and only use the laptop at school – and only have one of the two instances actively open at any one time – I need the functionality on both devices. There was no restriction that the subscription only covers one device and does not allow the use of the AI ​​Assistant on both devices – it would also violate the previous understanding that the application can be installed on up to two devices.

 

Does anyone here have the same problem?

 

German Version:

Hallo. Ich nutze als Lehrerin die Adobe Crative Suite, und habe nun zusätzlich noch den AI-Assistenten hinzugebucht. Dennoch kommt beim Klicken auf den AI weiterhin die Aufforderung, ein Abo abzuschließen, obgleich ich in meinem Account deutlich sehe, diese Option gebucht zu haben.

Man hat be Adobe ja die Möglichkeit die Software auf zwei Geräten zu nutzen. Dies habe ich also auf meinem Laptop vorgenommen, und auf meinem PC. Beim Laptop funktioniert es - bei meinem PC nicht. Da ich aber zuhause mit dem PC arbeite und den Laptop nur in der Schule verwende - und immer nur eine der beiden Instanzen aktiv geöffnet habe, brauche ich die Funkton auf beiden Geräten. Eine Restriktion, dass mit dem Abo nur ein Gerät gebucht wird und nicht die Möglichkeit den AI auf beiden zu nutzen gab es nicht - es würde auch gegen das bisherige Verständnis verstoßen, die Anwendung auf bis zu zwei Geräten installieren zu können.

Hat hier jemand das gleiche Problem?

Hello.

With a lot of effort, I've now started the logs on the functional setup, only to then run them on the PC where it doesn't work. Then I noticed that the AI ​​assistant suddenly works – it didn't work this morning. oO

Thanks so far 🙂

Hi Melanie,

I’m experiencing the same issue as well. I purchased the AI Assistant, but while it works on one device, I keep getting a prompt to purchase a subscription when trying to use it on my second device. It seems like a mismatch between the account and the subscription.

I’d be interested to know if anyone else has found a solution to get it working on both devices!
