I was having a weird problem where my community username, Charisma, was what I wanted it to be but a different name was listed when I checked my Adobe account profile. I'm not sure if it's just a temporary glitch but when I went to change it in the account profile so the names would match up, it said that username was already taken. And it is... by me!

I see that your name right now is indeed 'Charisma'. The only reason why the site would ask you for another name is if you had another/multiple Adobe licenses. If the username is matching the wrong Adobe ID/license I can swap them. Let me know how you get on!

Thank you for the reply! When I go to Account Settings in Adobe Support Community it's linked to the right email and has my Support Community Name as Charisma but when I follow the link to Edit on my Adobe account it has a different name listed for my Adobe Screen Name. It seems like my name on Support just isn't updating even if I change it in my Adobe account.

Replying here since I wasn't 100% sure of your ask. I've edited the email out of your reply for privacy reasons. I found an account under that email and changed it to Cindyhu_1026. Is that what you wanted? 🙂
