[kathenderson]

I have been trying to download creative cloud, photoshop and some other apps and I just can't get pass the "enter your password".  I have changed my password, I am super confused.  Can anyone help me.

What we already said: when you install ANYTHING it asks for your computer password. It isn't asking for your Adobe password.

For any other Mac users who are confused, that is your Mac asking for your COMPUTER password to prove that you have permission to install programs
