Question

Linking new email/Adobe ID to old Behance site

Hi, hope someone can help guide me with this?

 

When Covid hit I had to give up my PS subscription when it came to renewal but luckily, being a part time studio photography lecturer, when the school went online they gave all teachers access to the suite. Great. One less expense with the salary cut... Except that it meant using my work email to login and now I can't access my old Behance portfolio, it'll only let me create a new one but I have messages and connections on the other I need to access. Anyone know if it's possible to link it, and how, or do I need to wait until I can afford it again to get my old Adobe ID back for login?

 

Many thanks!

    Log-in to Behance with your personal ID, not your work ID.  I don't recommend moving Behance to your work ID because your employer will own it, not you.

    Hi Nancy, thanks so much for your reply. I think I perhaps didn't quite explain it properly, I can no longer login to Behance on my personal ID/email as I haven't renewed my subscription, so it wants me to do that before allowing access at all. So basically, my personal ID is inactive until such a time that I can afford to pay for PS again myself. So I was hoping there was a way to change to the work temporarily until I can get mine back and swap again? Everytime I've tried to click on Behance so that I might be able to attempt login with persoanl email, it just auto creates a new profile for me with my personal work email instead. But you're right, I don't want the school to "own" the profile. I'll see what I can otherwise do. Thanks!

    Behance is free.  But Adobe Portfolio which ties in seamlessly with Behance requires a PAID Creative Cloud plan.
