I bought Adobe XI on disk, want to install it on desktop and laptop. Why can't I?

I installed this copy of Acrobat XI Pro on my MacPro laptop, but I also want it on my Mac desktop. Since I am the owner of both machines, why cant I install it on both?

Thanks. On the first install on my laptop, my bona fides were sent to some outside company that verified that I am indeed an education professional. But when I tried to install on my desktop, it just told me the number had already been used. I wanted to contact Adobe in the first place to try and figure this out and they make it impossible--none of their help prompts were helpful and there was no email address to send my query to. I will search again and see about calling them.

Here is a copy of the error
This means : Installation failed.
Verification of the Adobe Software failed
The product you want to install is no valid Adobe product and seems to be falsified.

If your serial number is listed as being valid at http://www.adobe.com/ then I would recommend obtaining a fresh copy of the installation files. You can find details on how to locate your serial number at Find your serial number quickly - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html.
To download a fresh copy of the installation files please see Download CS6 products.

Media/Disk cache, etc. setup for a desktop and laptop dual configuration

Hi,
(New User)
I have a desktop at home, and a laptop. I split my time about 50/50 between the two. I use it for AE, PP, PS mainly
Desktop hard drive setup:
1 SSD (Currently, Windows 8 and Adobe CC installed)
2 - 1TB (7200rpm) drives (1 drive is where I put my project files (gets sync'd with google drive) and the other drive isn't being used at the moment)
Laptop:
1TB Hard drvie (Of course, Win 8 and Adobe CC installed) (And, the folder where I do my projects gets sync'd with google drive).
As you can see, because I split my time between a laptop and desktop, I need to be working with the most current files (which is why I sync them through google drive).
My question is (please remember I am new), where should I set up disk cache, media cache, and anything else so that it is effecient and more importantly so I can use either my laptop or desktop to work on the same files?
Again, I barely know what I am talking about here. I really don't understand what media cache, disk cache, etc. is. I am trying to learn but I want to get this setup first so I can start with the tutorials on lynda.com.
Thanks,
Chris

First you do not need disk cache for all projects. For some it may even get in the way. Second, put your disk cache wherever you would like. If you have a second drive that is fast, use that. If you have room on your SSD drive, use that.
If you get into trouble with a comp and previews are fouled up or things just don't look right, empty your disk cache. It's not a necessity for working with AE, it's just a convenience for some projects that may help you work a little faster.

I want to enter into the chatting session and want to install the flash player and java, how can I do that?

I want to see the images from the Internet, want to chat on dardesha, an Arabic chat site, want to dOwnload also java. If all these cannot be happened so then what is the use of Purchasing such a costly iPad, I am working on a shop where I use to sell my own laptops and accessories And was encouraging to purchase iPad, iPhones, apple laps etc but this problem is not going from the past several months if it will be like this then I will Throw this iPad and never buy or ask my customers to buy it. In this context I have gone through some of the discussions and Community answers but unable to find a solution for it.

I swore I would never reply to another complaint on Flash, but your post really,really irked me.
So, here I am and here's the facts.
No Apple iOS mobile has ever and, probably, never will have Flash. Adobe has not developed a working reliable and stable version of Flash that Apple is willing to use on their devices.
I looks like you didn't do any homework researching Apple mobile devices.
These issues have been discussed over and over here in these forums and other places on the Internet.
It's common knowledge that Adobe Flash has never been implemented on any of Apple's mobile platform devices.
No secret here.
See this article from Steve Jobs, himself.
http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/
And, I believe Java does not work on iOS, either.
Go ahead. Throw your iPad away.
Other Tablet devices such as Motorola Xoom, Samsung's Galaxy Tab and Research in Motion's Playbook all do Flash and maybe Java, too!
iPad is not for you! If you can find and purchase these in your location, you may fare better with one of these tablet devices, instead. But I doubt it!
Good Luck and Happy mobile computing! ;)
Good luck!

Can Adobe products be installed on my desktop and laptop simultaneously?

I have a Windows 7 Dell laptop that I take on business trips. I would like to install Premier on it. I have Premier installed on my desktop. Can I have it in two locations or do I have to do the De-activate/Activate dance?
Frank

You can install it on up to two computers per license. So yes please feel free to install a second installation on your laptop.

You apparently are using a version of OS X you did not purchase using your Apple ID. Although you can download Mavericks you cannot install it over your current system. You must repartition your hard drive, then reinstall the version of OS X originally installed when it came new from the factory. That would be on the installer discs that should have come with the computer. If the computer did not come with discs from the factory but OS X was pre-installed (Lion or Mountain Lion) then you can perform an Internet Recovery:
Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your external hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

I wanted to install windows for Mac and I had vista so I put I the disk and installed followed the steps it then it closed my computer wen I turned it on it went straight to windows and it asked me to install it and put in the windows box code I found out I didn't have it so I wanted to go back to Mac I shut it off and it just goes back to windows and asks me to put the box code how do I get rid of it and go back to Mac because no buttons work at the start and i can't take out the disk !! Help

The two other posts are correct... so I'll just clarify. What's happening right now is your system is trying to boot into Windows in order to finish the installation. What you want to do is make it boot into OS X. As mende1 indicated, with your system off, hold down the Option key and continue to hold it while you turn the system on. You will eventually be presented with an option to select which partition you would like to boot from. Choose OS X. After you get into OS X, again, as mende1 indicated, change the Startup Disk to OS X. What this will do is cause your system to automatically boot into OS X when you restart it instead of you having to use the Option key when booting each time.
Relaunching BootCamp Assistant will allow you to remove your Windows installation and partition.

I bought and legally own PS CS3. Installed on a desktop and the machine died completely. Downloaded a trial of CS3 from Adobe site. Went to activate and said too many activations. Activate over the phone. EXCEPT Adobe does not handle activation issues over the phone. Adobe doesn't care about their older products - they don't care that I spent hundreds of dollars for CS3. This is truly disgusting corporate behavior. Is there anything I can do? We aren't all rich photographers. I paid a great deal of money for this product. Is it now useless?Thank you,
James Scott

I bought at Media Market the CD for installing Photoshop Elements 13 and Premiere Elements 13 but I have no disc drive. Is it possible to install and register it online?

I was in the same boat as you, so I went to Best Buy and purchased the box (on sale, by the way). I then downloaded the trials separately for Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements from the Adobe product site.
In the box you should have been given 2 discs (one for Photoshop Elements (PS) and one for Premiere Elements (PE)) and something called a "redemption code" on a square of colorful cardboard with instructions on how to get your serial keys for installation. The single redemption code is NOT the serial/product key you use to install your purchase. Once you follow the instructions on this card you will be shown two serial/product codes, one each for PE and PS. Write them down, print them, whatever, you will need them during installation.
Now go to the downloaded trial file(s) and run the installer, either for PE first or PS, it makes no difference. During the installation you will be asked if you want to start a trial or use a serial/product code. Choose "I have a code". Enter the product key and you will be golden. Repeat for the other program.
Hope this helps!

Adobe Cloud is installed on my desktop and one laptop computer. Upon noticing updates were available yesterday, I successfully installed them on my laptop. Today, I cannot get Abobe Cloud to open on my desktop.

We don't know what Apple plans on doing to change this (and it may not be just Apple but more likely the publishers, since Apple would, of course, do whatever it could to maximize sales/profits). Right now you can only read Apple books on mobile devices. Sure, buy them from Amazon if you want to read them on the computer. We don't work for Apple so we're pretty impartial on this kind of advice.
You might also see what your library can offer. My wife can browse the county library from her iPhone, borrow e-versions, and read books on it too. Free!

I purchased Mountain Lion on my MacBook and want it on my mac desktop as well. Can I download the same purchase on my desktopMac? and how do i do that?

I purchased Mountain Lion on my MacBook and want it on my mac desktop as well. Can I download the same purchase on my desktopMac? and how do i do that?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
When you purchase Mountain Lion, you can install it as many times as you want on all your computers for free. To install it on the desktop, open the App Store, go to Purchases tab and download OS X Mountain Lion.
Another option is to redownload it on the MacBook, put the installer onto a USB drive and connect it to the desktop in order to upgrade
