A question for Mat or anyone that knows...

I received the code, thanks.

But I am still using LR 5.7.1 and PS Elements 12, because I don't like subscriptions and the cloud...
I like to buy a perpetual licence and use it as long as possible.

Should I decide to try it just because it's free, can I install it alongside the current perpetual versions? (in Windows 7 Pro 64 bit)

You can install multiple versions of Adobe software on the same machine. I once had Photoshop CS6, CC 2014 and CC2015 installed side by side, and it worked fine.

I didn't try yet, but the Lightroom Classic CC version - which is included in the photography plan as well - should work with Win 7. It's just Lightroom CC that requires Win 10

I believe I qualified this month for the full CC package (more than €500 in video sales, 93% acceptance rate, and more than 1 file approved this year) but I've yet to receive a code. Hopefully it gets sent out somewhere in the first week of October if there are still codes available.

What happens when a subscription ends? No software, everything stops working. I've read that the cloud storage stays for a year, so good news you don't get locked out of your own files.

Is the subscription by month or actual date? If I subscribe today will it end Oct. 31st 2019 or Oct. 4th 2018?

Have you contacted Adobe support?....the same thing happened to me and I got my code when I contacted support and explained the details of my situation.

Absolutely, yes you can. I have PS CC installed and used daily and I also have PS CS6 installed in background, same OS as you

Thanks, there's so much misinformation, rumors and false claims, I wanted to see if I could get some more reliable information.

Good news, it seems working now.
But as Scott Kelly is not Adobe's employee his foundings are not reliable. Is there any official statement from Adobe?
Will it work in the futur as well?

MatHayward

I'm not the best source of information for Creative Cloud questions. I recommend you contact customer service through Adobe.com with any specific questions you have about your subscription.

Sorry I can't be more help on this.

I haven't received my code either. I did contact support earlier and supposedly I'd be in the next batch. But if another batch has gone out - ccbcc mentioned receiving one this week - then I'm puzzled.

Hi Jo Ann,

Moments ago I received an updated list and see that you are on it. I'll reach out to you via email to make sure you are all set.

Thanks for your patience,

Mat

I received a message from Mat earlier, and then just a minute or two ago, I received my email. Mat's magic wand fixed up whatever was amiss.

Many thanks for the assistance.

I met the qualifications before the email went out, but haven't received anything. Does it matter if my current cc subscription is under a different account than my stock account?

No, that doesn't matter. The code will be emailed to the address associated with your Adobe Stock Contributor account.

Hi Mat,
I´m a video contributor and have met the requirements around Feb. 16th. But I didn´t receive an Email yet. May I ask for your help? In fact, I had just renewed my subscription plan a few days ago - I´m using a different email for that though.
Thanks and all the best,
Wolfgang

I suggest you contact Adobe Contributor Support. I used this contact form: https://contributor.stock.adobe.com/uk/contact

I got a quick email back that I was eligible and on the list for the next wave of emails that are being sent out, so I'm eagerly waiting :)

Thanks a lot!!! Check ;) let´s hope for the best!

A heads-up for people who haven't yet received their code, check your spam folder (perhaps even your trash)!

It sounds obvious, and Mat has already mentioned this, but the code email comes from CompEXT (Subject: Your Creative Cloud Individual Code). IE it's not from Adobe and doesn't mention Adobe in the subject line.

I almost inadvertently sent it into trash!

Fantastic idea BTW :)
