Hi there,
Sorry if this seems like a silly question, I was unable to get in contact with Adobe
I'm currently on a plan which includes use of all of the Adobe programs, I subscribed to that option when it was amongst a promo price, but it has been a year, and my next payment will be the full price and I'm unable to continue using it (it's a bit too pricey for me sadly).
So I'd like to change my plan to just the Photoshop option before the new payment for the use of all apps gets taken out in a week.
How can I go about making sure the use of all apps option isn't renewed and the single app option is activated? Do I need to cancel my subscription/plan?
Is it as simple as "buying" it now before my subscription payment is due? I'm worried about doubling up on payments accidentally attempting to downgrade my subscription.
I've also installed quite a few of the Adobe apps, if I downgrade my subscription restricting my access, what happens to those apps, do they come inactive prompting an uninstall?
Thank you for any help! Most appreciated!
Also - I've clicked on "manage plan" option under the Creative Cloud membership (one-year) plan in my Adobe ID section, but nothing shows up, the page is blank, I'm not sure if it's a page error or something but that option doesn't seem to work for me..

Hi Spirit,
Note that Adobe does not normally charge fees when customers change or upgrade plans – but only if you cancel... Is there another/different plan which better suits your needs? If so, that might be something to consider instead of entirely canceling your subscription.

Thank you for your reply,
I suspected I may need to cancel, but to do so I think one has to access the "manage plan" section under the plan's title in the Adobe ID section, in my overview section, I do have the Creative Cloud membership (one-year) title there, but when I click the "manage plan" option underneath it the page loads but the page is blank, so I'm not too sure how to continue due to such... my "plans and products" tab is basically a blank page, which doesn't make sense since I'm still paying for the one year plan.. 😕

Thank you, I think there may be an error going on somehow as I'm still struggling to continue with ease through my Adobe ID options, not much is loading despite having good internet connection and it's not really letting me manage settings or plans etc. I will contact Adobe tomorrow in hope to sort out my issue.
I thought I was just missing the obvious but now I think it's just the pages I need to access aren't properly loading for me..
Thank you for your advice either way

It is actually simpler than this. Go to MANAGE ACCOUNT. Then choose MANAGE PLAN. Then pick SWITCH PLAN and scroll right through the entire list of plans. The cheapest (Photography Plan) is the last option. To finalize, simply click CHOOSE THIS PLAN and the rest is automatic.
If you have subscription left, it will issue a credit to your credit card. It will also make changes to your fonts if necessary.
Only thing I haven't figured out at this point is what happens to the apps that I'm no longer subscribed to that are installed on my computer.

For anyone wondering, "MANAGE PLAN" is available in your online Adobe Account here:
https://account.adobe.com/plans
...from there, you can follow these instructions:

And if you do this, are they still going to charge you 50% for "cancelling" early, if you are on the pro annual monthly plan? Cuz it felt really sneaky and underhanded when they transferred my 7-day trial of Adobe standard to the Pro Annual Plan and now want a ridiculous amount of money to cancel it, so I figure it's very likely something they would do, without warning you before you change your plan.

is correct. there's no penalty for changing plans. the only thing to note is that your 1 year plan expiration date changes to the date the change is made.

i just saw your other post about being charged incorrectly. read my response to that post because you need not change plans to something you do not want if you were incorrectly charged. adobe will refund your charges and cancel your subscription without penalty. make use you have the info they might request (eg, the cancelation email you received after cancelling) when contacting.
