Items to include when contacting Customer Care

The best and most effective way to contact Adobe Social Customer Care is to use Social. Click Help in the upper-right corner, then click Contact Support. Use the fields in the pop-up window to explain the issue and attach any applicable files. Include the following information to ensure the fastest resolution of your issue:

  • Explanation of the problem: A quick summary of the issue.
  • Time/date the issue occurred: 7:00 AM/PM PST (specify timezone).
  • Impact to business: Provide us with the impact the issue has to your business.
  • Steps to reproduce: For most issues, Customer Care or developers must be able to reproduce your issue to troubleshoot it or devise a fix. Click-by-click directions are the best way to ensure that Customer Care has all the correct steps to reproduce the issue.
  • OS: Are you using a Windows, Mac, or a mobile device? If mobile, which type of device?
  • Browser: Occasionally, results vary browser-to-browser. Let us know what version of which browser you're using and if you've tried multiple. For example, "I'm using Firefox 25."
  • Any filter settings, tags, keywords, or date ranges: To make sure that Customer Care sees exactly what you're seeing.

If applicable, include the following:

  • Exact error message (if there is one)
  • Facebook/Twitter/G+ page affected: The social property name is required for troubleshooting/testing
  • Links to affected social media pages/posts/tweets: Links and URLs help us troubleshoot and test as quickly as possible.
  • Information included in the email notification you received (failed post, unable to moderate, and so on)

Most importantly attach screenshots that you think are useful, annotate the screen shot if needed. Include the entire window where the issue occurs including the address bar at the top, not just a close up of a small section. If there is a particular file involved, attach it for review.
