how do I unlicense something that I purchased accidentally?

Explorer ,
Jul 20, 2015 Jul 20, 2015

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.

Hi K.,

Apologies, I only now saw your post. I don't see a record of you contacting customer care under the Adobe ID you are using here on the forums. I'm sorry you had a poor experience if you decide to renew your Adobe Stock subscription by the 19th, thirty days from when you closed your most recent subscription, I can assist you with receiving a replacent for the accidental licenses.

Hi P4ugusto

Once an image has been licensed it's not possible to reverse this.  Please use the preview option instead.  I've added 2 credits to your account to replace the ones licensed by mistake.

Kind regards

Me too!  Can I unlicense all my images?  I did not realize that I was saving and licensing!

Thanks, Kristina

Hi Bev,

I have done the same thing - accidentally licensed two images:

&

Is it possible to remove these?


Thank you,

Hi James

It's not possible to remove images once they've been licensed.  I've added 2 credits to your account as a gesture of goodwill.

Hi chayak57964291

We don't have a way to retract this, but I've added a credit to your account so you can select another image.

Kind regards

Hi Billy,

I apologize as there is no way to unlicense the image once it is licensed.

But I've added one credit to your account so that you can use it against this image.

Hope that helps!

Hi,

while scrolling through the images today, Ive tried to open one and while clicking on it i accidentaly licensed it.

#112422171

Is there any way to give it back? Im realy not interested in using that image?

If no at least take it as a feedback to make licensing bit harder, maybe just one confirmation window popup.

Thanks

Jakub

Sorry for the trouble it has caused to you.

I have checked your account details and have added an image license to it so that you can use it for a different image.

Hope this helps!

Hello,

I've also accidentally added two images, which I did not intend to purchase. The first (#172706500) is about a month ago, when I opened the my account. The other one (#79238910) just yet.

Sorry about this.

Thanks for helping!

Hi Jaider,

I see you have an Adobe account under the same ID as with forums. Since you have accidentally licensed 2 Stock images, I have added 2 image licenses to your account so that you can use them for different images.

Hope that helps!

Hi Eric,

Since you have accidentally licensed 2 Stock files, I have added 2 image licenses to your account so that you can use it against a different image.

Please refer to the help document: Stock FAQ: How to license an image with Adobe Stock? to license an image correctly in Adobe Stock.

Hope this helps!
