I've brought a new pc and i can't activate the creative cloud on it

Title says it all really, the old hard drive i used in my old system has been wiped so i cant lauch the old programs to deactive the programs on there. but everything has been installed on this new system so im wondering is there a way i can activate them to use on my new system
thanks in advance

Hi MikeP3131,
When you install the program through cloud and enter your Adobe Id and password your system tries to connect to the Adobe activation server and then the subscription gets activated.
With creative cloud you can activate the subscription in 2 computers. The moment you install the software  and activate the subscription in 3rd one it gives you a pop up message saying that the subscription has already been activated in 2 machines.
If you click on 'continue' on that window it will deactivate the subscription from the previous two machines and will let you activate it in the 3rd machine.
So you don't need to deactivate the subscription from the old computer.
Thanks
Kapil

  • I have aperture 3.2.4 on my laptop and have the serial number, but just bought a new MAC and I can't get the Ver 3.0 link to work. Anyone know how to move it from my laptop to our new mac?

    I have aperture 3.2.4 on my laptop and have the serial number, but just bought a new MAC and I can't get the Ver 3.0 link to work. Anyone know how to move it from my laptop to our new mac?

    I am talking about the Ver 3 download link that came with the purchase email.
    That link is no longer available. Use "Migration Assistant" to copy your Applications from your old mac to the new Mac, then immediately run software update. Aperture Version 3.2 will not run on your new mac with Mavericks, you will have to Upgrade to version 3.4.5 at least - you can download this update from the Support page: Aperture 3.4.5
    Then launch Aperture and enter your registration key and try now too update from version 3.4.5 to 3.5 from the AppStore. The AppStore will change your Aperture registration to an AppStore version, so you will able to reinstall by downloading from the AppSTore in future.
    If you want transfer only Aperture and no other applications, do it manually: You will have to copy not only the application but folders from the libraries as well:
    /Applications/Aperture.app
    /Library/Application Support/Aperture/
    ~/Library/Application Support/Aperture/

    And will the thievs be able to purchase things from itunes or adobe with my cardinfo? I have a password who comes up overtime i download anything, but i never used itunes on buying things. I just registred there.

    What is iCloud, and did you ask Apple about their "I" product? (The Cloud is not iCloud, whatever that may be)

  • Can I buy the Creative Cloud in New Zealand, and use it in Qatar?

    Hi,
    I have project in Qatar, Doha and I will be based here for next year or so. So can I buy the Creative Cloud Service in NZ, where I live and use the Creative Cloud service and applications in Qatar (Middle East)? Would appreicate answer as soon as possible.
    Thanks,
    Rehan Saiyed

    Although I'm not 100% sure, I would say that as long as your registration is consistent with your NZ information, you should be able to purchase CC. This includes an Adobe ID associated with NZ as your primary country, a NZ shipping/billing address, credit card information, etc. The only problem I might see popping up is being on an IP address originating in Qatar, since internet access is required for registering and downloading apps.
    Just to be safe though, I would try contacting customer support.
    Go here: http://helpx.adobe.com/contact/ ,
    Select Creative Cloud,
    Select a topic from the dropdown menu,

  • Can i install creative cloud in both mac and PC? up to how many computers can i install the creative cloud?

    Hiya, i am new to the latest version of creative cloud. Wonder if i can install creative cloud in both mac and PC? And up to how many computers can i install the creative cloud? If I am going to graduate in a few months time, can I still use student discount to purchase the one year package and pay it off in one go? Thanks! !

    Sure , you can install on both Mac as well as PC .
    Max activation allowed = 2 computers.
    Student discounted price will be valid for one year.
    Later you can purchase with different Adobe ID , with valid proof of eligibility .
    Once you had purchased yearly prepaid subscription , it will not expire for another one whole year , whether you are still student or finished graduation. It will expire after year.

    This has nothing to do with your pictures. As long as LR works, nothing happens. The CC app merely has lost an entry in the installer database. Would a reinstall fix it? Sure. Is it necessary? Not really (until the next version or update). So unless you have too much time to spend or something isn't working, I'm sure you can find more interesting things to do with your tiem. Otherwise use the cleaner tool and get to it:
