Can't send a doc - I get an error that says I am not authorized and contact administrator

On Friday and today, I logged into my account to send a document, and I got an error that said, "You are not authorized to send documents for signature. Please contact your account administrator." But I am the only one that uses this account and am the admin. I have never had this error before, but it's prevented me from sending out docs to 2 people so far. Why is this happening and how do I fix it?

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.

I only have 1 account. When I log in, I can click the manage tab and see what was sent. But when I go to send, I get the error.

No, I do not use a different e-mail. As you can see from the video, when I log in, I can navigate to other tabs and see older documents I've sent. But now when I try to create a new one, I can't. I have a paid account I use for most files, but when I'm sending termination paperwork or employee reviews, I send from this one.  I'm attaching a quick video demonstrating that I can get into my account and see old items, but when I try to send something new, I get an error.
