I am already a NYT subscriber, can I still activate with organisation’s account?
If your current subscription overlaps with the products provided through your organization’s account, you will receive an error attempting to link to it
Example: If you are a current Cooking subscriber, and your organization provides All Access to its members, this will be a conflict, as All Access includes Cooking
You will need to do 1 of 2 things to link with your organization’s account:
Option 1: Cancel the existing subscription
Once canceled, you can proceed with linking to your organization via the steps in Activation: For existing NYT users
If you leave that organization, you can easily resubscribe in the future!
Option 2: Link to your organization with a new or different NYT account
If you prefer, you can always receive your organization’s access via a new or different NYT account.
You can always change this later if you like via your Account settings > Email and settings page, which allows you to disconnect an account from SSO and reconnect elsewhere
Error: “We couldn’t link this account because it’s associated with a different Times account”
This error message indicates that you have already linked your organizational SSO account to a NYT user account, and it is a different NYT user account than the one you’re currently logged into
Step 1: Log into the currently connected account and disconnect it from SSO
Step 2: Link your SSO account to your desired NYT account
