I will adapt to your idea. I will adapt to your schedule. The preposition that usually goes with adapt is to. so yes you can say I will adapt to your idea, your way of thinking
Yes you can say that

Hey! Yes you are 100% correct Veronika! Example: After living in a house with a garden ✔,it's hard to adapt to living in a flat✔. Adapt ✔is used as a verb here and also in your mentioned scenario, which means to become adjusted to new situation / conditions. While to ✔is a preposition that goes with adapt generally. If you adapt to a new situation or adapt yourself to it, you change your ideas or behavior in order to deal with it successfully. Hence you got that right! If you want to give up your preferences and accept his/her...you can say, "I adapt to you!" 😊👍
