how do I unlicense something that I purchased accidentally?

[omnius42]

I'm just now figuring out this adobe stock and there are buttons all over to license stuff, and I can't see any prices anywhere.  I apparently have x photos that I can license as part of my subscription, but as I was traversing the site trying to see what stuff costs I ended up accidentally licensing a photo twice.  It really needs more feedback on what I am about to do.  So, how do I un-license the extra copy of a photo?

Thanks!

Hi there

I've added a license credit to your account to replace the duplicate image ordered in error.

Kind regards

Thank you very much Bev.

Can I offer a suggestion that it shouldn't be quite so easy to license an image.  When I made the mistakes, I was trying to determine how much licensing the image would cost (since it wasn't displayed).  I now realize that it just deducted the image from my "allotment" for the month, but frankly it wasn't obvious that I was making an irrevocable decision.

Thanks again!

Thanks for your feedback omnius42 - I'll pass this on to the product team.

Kind regards

Hi Beverly I actually just did the same thing. Some co workers of mine were trying to figure out how to download the images and I showed them quick and ended up downloading a pic by accident. It was 4378722

I also just joined today and made folders to place photos in for my school project. I licensed one photo but as I was moving other photos the site stalled and a few minutes later I noticed one photo I did not select to be licensed was?? Anyone else having this problem or just a computer glitch ?

Hi ericay21987300

Please advise which image you licensed that you didn't intend to.

Thanks

Hi Bev,

It was the image #26466071 that was added for some reason.

Thank you so much! I love all the stock options!

Hello, I accidentally licenses image #58350659 while browsing.

Hi Amanda,

Unfortunately there is noway to unlicense an image which has been licensed once.

But I've checked your account and added 1 license to it so that you can use it for a different image.

Let me know if that helps!

Regards,

Sheena

Hi Jimmy,

I apologize for such an experience.

Allow me sometime to get this file checked and confirm you the resolution.

Sheena

Hi Jimmy,

I checked with the product team and the file has no issues. It is absolutely fine.

It's the title as provided by the contributor which says Bald eagle hand draw and paint colors on white background vector illustration and therefore is tagged as a vector. Also the file type mentioned clearly mentions it to be an .ai file and not a JPEG.

I apologize there is no way to unlicense this file.

Regards,

Sheena

Hi Adobe / Bev,

I also just accidently purchased a photo license # 67265844

It's so near to the button for previewing it for later that sometimes the mouse drifts a bit.

Unfortunately, there's no double confirmation or automated reversal option.

Can you please manually reverse this image purchase?

Thank you,

Caroline

Hello Bev,

I seem to have had the same issue. I agree that it is far too easy to accidentally license something!

(Aside from that, I am really liking the quality and cost in comparison to other services!)

Could you help me? I accidentally licensed #41173463

Thanks!

Hi Beverly,

I also accidentally licensed an image (70920140). I was scrolling through and accidentally clicked on the license button. Can you help me?

I suggest adding a confirmation popup before the licensed is purchased. Might help prevent this sort of accident!
