As stated in the article linked below, Pantone’s licensing with Adobe got changed.
Due to this change, customers will need to purchase Pantone Connect licenses to access Pantone colors in Adobe Creative Cloud products.

Alas, this is the world today.

I understand this may be an issue on Pantone's behalf, but it's very disappointing that Adobe software hasn't kept those libraries up to date.
Currently, to find the RGB or CMYK values, one needs to visit the Pantone website/Find a Pantone Color page, then create a color swatch from scratch. Will this get updated sometime soon? Or have the days of full Pantone libraries gone the route of the dinosaur?

I did purchase the Pantone Color Manager at one point, and it a) was not updated, and b) never worked correctly. I have a year's worth of emails with their "customer service" and was told they didn't know why I was having issues. They would reset my password and it would work twice, then not at all. It went on for one entire year like that. Hasn't anyone else noticed that all the colors in the newer books are not present in their software?
