Access Adobe Stock Photos from behind an authenticating proxy server

If your computer network requires that you log in to access the internet, Adobe Stock Photos will display a dialog for you to enter your credentials (username and password) in the Adobe Stock Photos Proxies Credentials dialog box.

Adobe Stock Photos supports basic authentication for both HTTP and HTTPS protocols. Depending on your system, you may be asked to enter a username and password for both protocols. If one of the protocols on your network is behind a proxy and the other is not, you will not be able to access all features of Adobe Stock Photos. When you enter your username and password, Adobe Stock Photos securely stores the information on your compute as encrypted information.

Note: In addition to the Adobe Stock Photos Proxies Credentials dialog box, you will be prompted for credentials on a per session basis in additional dialog(s). If you try to access an Adobe Stock Photos service and the credentials available within Adobe Stock Photos is not correct, you will be re-prompted for the credentials in the Adobe Stock Photos Proxies Credentials dialog box.

On the Macintosh, you must be running Mac OS 10.3 or above to use Adobe Stock Photos from behind an authenticating proxy server. The username and password you enter in the Adobe Stock Photos Proxies Credentials dialog box affect global username and password settings and will be reflected in system preferences.

You can change or remove your username and password in the Adobe Bridge preferences.

  1. In Adobe Bridge, choose Edit > Preferences (Windows) or Bridge > Preferences (Mac OS).
  2. Choose the Adobe Stock Photos panel and click Enter Proxy Details.
  3. Change or clear your username and password.
  4. Click OK and exit Preferences.
