•  Adobe home use instructions

These are the instructions on how to install and use Adobe programs from home. The following instructions apply only to staff members and the selected students, who have received a notification via email about the Adobe licensing. The licenses have been applied e.g. to the students in Journalism and to some additional student groups.

You can install the programs on your computer by signing in to Adobe.com.

Next, you can choose to continue to the Finnish site, or for the English language, choose ‘Continue to United States’.

You can continue by choosing ‘Sign in’. 

A sign-in window opens. Use your Haaga-Helia email in student ID format (student-id@myy.haaga-helia.fi).

You will be forwarded to Haaga-Helia’s sign-in page, where you use your email in the same format as before (student-id@myy.haaga-helia.fi). Verify your account with your mobile phone as required.

Once you have signed in, you can download and install programs by choosing ‘More’, ‘Creative Cloud Apps’ and ‘View All’ from the menu in the upper right corner.

This will take you to the download page, where you can choose the programs you want to install.

An alternative route to the downloads page is through your profile and then choose ‘Access your apps and services’.
