Symptoms After logging into adobe.com with a Duke enterprise ID and accessing "Desktop apps", users only have the option to "Download trial" rather than "Download". When downloading apps and opening them, the apps run in trial mode, notifying users with a variety of messages (depending on the app) that indicate limited functionality and that they must buy the software. Cause This is most commonly caused by users not signing in properly. It can also be caused by an error on the Adobe side that does not provision resources properly when the account was created. Signing out and back in can resolve this, as can clearing the cache. In some cases, the account needs to be deleted and re-provisioned. It can also be caused by a bad hosts file in limited instances, and this is most common when end users have had previous versions of Adobe creative software installed on their computers. Finally, your login may have expired. Faculty/staff accounts need to have an active license to continue use. Student accounts will be deactivated upon graduation or leaving Duke. Resolution
