Reset forgotten password
If you forgot your password or get the error “Adobe ID and password don’t match,” you can reset your password with your Adobe ID (usually your email) or your phone number.

Go to your Adobe account.

In the Reset your password window, choose how you want to reset your password:
- Recovery email: Adobe sends an email with instructions to reset your password.
- Recovery text: Adobe sends a text message with the verification code to your registered phone number.
Note:
If you don’t have access to the email address on file and you don’t have a phone number associated with your account for recovery, contact Adobe Customer Care to reset your password.
