Using Cloud on 3 devices

The CC licence allows 2 devices per account - does that mean two simultaneously, or just two full stop?
Basically, I have an iMac at home, a MacBook Pro for on the road and a Mac Pro in the office. Can I use my CC licence across all 3 devices (by deactivating one to activate another), or are there restrictions, such as not being able to activate a third device for 24 hours etc?
Thanks

Hi JDnm,
You may install software on up to two computers. These two computers can be Windows, Mac OS, or one each and use one at a time its not to use simultaneously.
If you install on a third computer, it will request you to de-activate on the other two computers.  You can then reactivate one of the previous two computers, and use Creative Cloud apps on it.
If you regularly need to use the Creative Cloud on more than two computers then it would be best to purchase an additional subscription.  This is the same licensing btw which we have for our prepetual product.  An advantage though for Creative Cloud over the prepetural product is that you can install on Mac and Windows with the same subscription!

    Former device no longer functioning (no cloud storage and cannot set it up) - cannot transfer songs from computer to new iPod, cannot transfer from former iPod. How to transfer songs to new iPod?

    Remove Office 2008 for Mac using Microsoft deinstall procedure. Reinstall Office 2008 for Mac.  If there are updates, apply them. Using Disk Utility, verify/repair permissions on your boot drive.
    Does Office for Mac 2008 now work correctly? If not, you may want to repeat the above first sentence, and then update to Office for Mac 2011, and apply the latest (14.4.8) update which has Yosemite fixes.

  • Why can't I use Creative Cloud on multiple devices?

    I wasn't told there was a limit on the number of devices I could use for Creative Cloud when I bought my subscription, and I need it to work on 7 computers. Is there a way I can expand my subscription?

    My understanding is that you can use the Cloud on any device you want but only one at a time. Just as you can install the Creative Collections on as many computers as you wish but it can only be activated on two at a time but which is not really true since you can only use one of them at a time anyway.
    I think the wording about this should change.
    For insance I travel and may or may not wish to lug a laptop with me. It is my understanding that I can when raveling log into the CC download m apps and use them on any computer capable of running the apps and work away, But since I am logged in at a different location on a different device it will only work on that device.
    And this is the way it shoulkd work because say you travel and your laptop is lost or stolen then you should be able to still use your apps and also stop them from working on the lost computer by logging in somewhere else.
    This is the way Iunderstand the advantages of the Cloud. It is designed to be flexible and not inhibiting.
    Now on the other had if I ahsd an assistant that I want to use these apps then it makes sense to purchase a license for them as well.
    It is one license for one user as it should be but that user can access it where ever they need it.
    That is my understanding.

  • Is data saved on device when using cloud

    Trying to dtermine if i need a 32 or 64 gig phone if using cloud. Is data, photos,video stored off-device? Or does cloud stoe a duplicate?

    It depends on the data.
    Calendar, Contacts and Mail are stored on both devices and iCloud
    Photos, up to a 1000, are stored on iCloud and pushed and stored on both iCloud and your mobile device
    Music is stored on iCloud until you download it and then it is stored on both your device and iCloud.
    iCloud is NOT a true music or photo streaming service so much as a pass through service.
    If you have a lot of music and photos, you might want to consider the 64 gb.

  • Using Creative Cloud across multiple devices? (individual use)

    When signing up to Creative Cloud, how many devices does this allow for personal desktop use? I'm wanting the software for both my laptop and iMac (Plans for Individuals / Existing CS Customer / Complete at £27.34 a month).
    Many thanks, Sarah

    Found it:
    You can install and activate CC desktop applications on two computers, regardless of operating systems, for the individual associated with the CC membership...

    If you already purchased it with the same Apple ID, then you will not be re-charged.

        Hello teachermama10, The Factory Data Reset does remove all data including files and photos. I understand that making sure your phone information is backed up is of the upmost importance. You can ensure your phone data is backed up using these links: http://vz.to/1uM5mwZ and http://vz.to/1vEzYok.

  • How do i sync my contacts with gmail without using cloud?

    I want to sync my contacts to Gmail, but iTunes tells me that I'm already syncing via the cloud, which is impossible because my Gmail account says I have alot more contacts than my phone does. So my question is, how do i sync manually without creating duplicates. Thanks

    Im sorry, I left out one important detail:
    I went through that a long time ago. My phone has actually synced with google before, it just refuses to do it automatically. So what I was trying to ask: is there a way to manually sync my contact to google..There are two things i suspect might be causing the problem but I dont know how to correct these issues:
    1) I have multiple Gmail accounts linked to my phone so maybe there is a priority issue.
    2) The cloud is taking priority over gmail, because when i check my iCloud it has all my contacts there.
    So, if i just needed a backup somewhere of my contacts in case i lost/replaced my iPhone then the cloud would be just fine. However, I need them backed up in google because Im switching to a Windows phone, and google seems to be the best contact backup to use across multiple branded devices. Everyone loves Google.
    An update to my situation:
    Windows app store had an app that uses bluetooth to retrieve all my contacts from my iPhone. It worked wonderfully. So any insight from here on out will only benefit others with this problem that happen to read this discussion, because my issue has been resolved. Thanks for your intended help nonetheless.

  • Using iOS5 on multiple devices

    hi Forum
    Is there a view on how to use iOS5 on multiple devices when multiple devices are owned by differing family members? i have an iPhone, my partner has an iPhone, and together we have an iPad. [i have a MBP as well but havent updated to Lion yet, dont knwo if this is part of this question]. iOS5 can sync to multiple devices so can we sync all apps and musc between the mobile devices? do they have to be on the same apple user ID? of have i got that wrong?
    also contacts and photos wise, we both have our own photos, contacts, calendar and mail. can any/all of these be syncd between us all? i guess the one that would be syncd would be photos as youd want to see that on the ipad.
    Andi

    The iTunes account and iCloud accounts are not linked on your devices.
    So you can each have an iCloud account that works on your iDevices nd all be logged into the same iTunes account in the iTunes Store, App Store, IBooks, etc.
    You do really need your iMac to be on 10.7.2 as it was a requirement before you moved to iCloud, did you lie when asked the question "are all your devices ready for iCloud".

  • I bought my ipad 2 from a friend I am trying to connect to my itunes on my computer and it will not recognize it. It keeps telling me that IPad cant be used because apple mobile device service is not started. can you help

    I bought my IPad 2 from a friend. I have reset to clear all of his information out. I am trying to connect it to my computer to sync my itunes and I keep getting the message that my IPad can't be used because Apple Mobile Device Service is not started can anyone help with this?

    I cannot find "Other" devices. I found Apple Mobile Device under Universal Bus Controllers but cannot see "recovery mode" or any other status. I use Windows Vista.
    When I try to restart Apple Mobile Device Service I get the following message: "The Apple Mobile Device Service on Local Computer started then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs". What does this mean?
    During the last 48 hours I was able to see my iPad in iTunes only one time during many attemnpts to connect . I haven't been able to see it during the llast several attempts.
    Any suggestions? The standard suggestions have not worked: i.e. stop then start AMDS; tuurn off iPad and PC, then restart both and reconfrom iPad to PC; reload iTunes.
