If you have a Creative Cloud subscription and a stable internet connection, you can always activate Photoshop offline.

However, there are times when you may want or need to activate Photoshop without an internet connection. Maybe you’re going on a long trip and won’t have access to reliable internet, or maybe you live in an area with spotty service. Whatever the reason, it’s easy to activate Photoshop offline.

Here’s how:

  1. Open Photoshop and click Help > Sign In. Enter your Adobe ID and password, then click Sign In. If you don’t have an Adobe ID, click Create An Adobe ID and follow the instructions.
  2. Click the Offline Activation link in the Sign In window.
  3. On the next screen, choose your region and click Next.
