Can I buy a 'floating' license for CC?

In my studio there are about 5 desktop computers that are using by both permanent employees and freelancers who work with us. We are not big Photoshop users so only one person at a time would typically use Photoshop.
Is it legal to license the software to my company , rather than my employees, e.g. to '[email protected]'. Then install the software on all five machines but activate / deactivate the software as needed so it's only active on one computer at a time?
thanks

If you decide to get a CC subscription you can have the software installed on as many computers as you want but only two computers can be activated at a time in order to use an application. You can then deactivate the software on any of the activated machines and activate it on another machine which will allow another person to use the software.
As far as the licensing is concerned. Each machine would need to use the same account that was used to purchase the software in order to activate it under the single software license. I would recommend using your mentioned [email protected] e-mail account for the subscription so that the license isn't tied to a specific person. That way should anyone leave your studio you'll be able to disable their e-mail account without impacting any notifications you may get from Adobe about your license or Adobe account.
Keep in mind that in order to activate the software the user will need to enter the e-mail address and password you created when you purchased the license which means that the user would have access to the full account if they were to log into the web portal. Just something to keep in mind.

  • Can you buy just one license for remote desktop

    i want to access a single computer from another laptop. is the 10 license copy of remote desktop all that is available? if so, can someone offer me any other solutions?
    thanks,
    mike

    I use the VNC Client 'Chicken of the VNC' which you can get from here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/cotvnc/
    Tiger already comes with a VNC Server installed - simply go to the control panel, click on 'Sharing' and turn on ARD as an option there. Then click on the button 'Access Privileges' and tick the option 'VNC viewers can take control of the screen with password...' (and put in a password too...).
    VNC allows you to have pretty much complete control of the computer remotely - you see a window with the desktop visible on the computer running COTVNC (or whatever). However VNC does not support file transfer too / from or allow you to do things like install software remotely (and whatever else ARD would allow). But you can simulate most of these other ways if required.
    Hope this helps.

  • Buy/activate EMS licenses for a domain in another Azure AD

    I could really use an answer in regards to assigning Enterprise Mobility Suite licenses to an Azure subscription.
    First a little bit of background information:
    I have a single Azure subscription with two Azure Active Directories called Production
    and Testing respectively.
    The Production Azure AD “holds” two public domains named
    prod1.com and prod2.com, which are verified domains and used by my Office 365 and Intune subscriptions. The accounts in these two domain are sourced from Windows Azure Active Directory (not synched).
    The Testing Azure AD “holds” one public domain named
    testing.com and are not verified yet.
    I bought 5 EMS licenses and activated them and had hoped that I could use these for the accounts that I am going to create (sync) in the Testing Azure AD (testing.com
    domain). But to my surprise I can only assign EMS licenses to the accounts in my Production Azure AD (prod1.com/prod2.com
    domains). If I go to the License tab on the testing.com domain page I can only active the trial subscription for EMS.
    What would be the correct to buy/activate EMS licenses for my accounts in the testing.com domain?
    I have thought about creating a new Azure subscription for the testing.com domain to separate those two but that would add a bit more administration.
    The reason I have chosen to create a separate Azure AD for my testing.com domain is that I only want to enable DirSync for that particular domain and not for the two other production domains that I have.
    Kind regards
    Michael Buchardt

    Hi Michael,
    The licenses can only be assigned to one of your Azure AD tenants, that's why you don't see them in the other one.     I guess you activated/bought the EMS licenses logged on as an Admin in the "Production AAD"? If you really
    need to use separate AAD's, you will probably need to create a support ticket and get assistance on how to transfer the licenses.
    Anyhow, I'd recommend you using just one AAD if you don't have a very specific use case (like dev/test Environment). Otherwise, there is no problem activating Directory Synchronization, synchronize the testing.com users(using
    filtering) still keep managing the users in the prod1.com and prod2.com directly in AAD.
    Hope this helps!

  • Where can I download a single license for Microsoft Office for Mac?

    Where can I download a single license for Microsoft Office for Mac?  On microsoft.org you have to buy 3 licenses for $150.  I just want to download the home and student suite for my own computer.  Thanks.

    eBay also sell those license, or u can purchase them straight off microsoft after installing micrsoft office. But there are free MS Office alternative like Libreoffice mentioned.
    But my favourite one is OpenOffice... it supports 64 bits and its open source which means there are free upgrades and extensions availble to download for specific need.

    4 Macs in the family, do i need to buy a Lion license for each mac?

    No, you only need to buy 1 license for one of the systems. Then you can go to another system in your household, login to the App Store with the same login you used previously, download/install Lion for that system and so on.

  • Where can I buy a nano sim for the new iPhone 5

    Hi all,
    I have just ordered a new iPhone 5 from the apple website and it comes as an unlocked phone. Therefore I need to buy a new 'nano sim' to fit the new phone.
    Does anyone know where and how I go about doing this?
    I've seen that vodaphone have apparently got 500,000 of these new Nano sims in stock, but are they only for people who have bought the phone through them?
    Do you know any other networks or providers that are selling the nano sim, even if you haven't purchased the phone from them?
    Any advice or tips would be much appreiciated.
    Many thanks
    Chris

    Which is why in the UK it is not really worth purchasing an iPhone directly from Apple - it's a no brainer.  You should always purchase through the phone companies themselves and you'll get a much better deal always.
    I have been with 02 on a contract since I had my first iPhone and have always upgraded for less than half the cost of the iPhone directly from Apple.
    I really don't understand why someone would want to spend at least £525 to £600 on a phone from Apple when you could get it for less than half the cost with the UK phone companies, unless of course money is no object!

  • Where can I buy a new battery for my macbook

    Where can I buy a new battery for my macbook

    Depending on the build year model configuration
    (reference serial number lookup online) you may
    have a MacBook w/ built-in battery, or maybe not.
    If yours does not have a user-accessible battery
    you may want to look into iFixit.com guides to see
    what they suggest for your specific MacBook.
    And then consider if you are up to the DIY steps
    with ability to do the complete service yourself,
    or if not, then contact a qualified certified service
    center to inquire their estimate for part + labor.
    However if your computer does have an easily
    replaced battery with external access where
    you are essentially looking at the battery, that
    is just a matter of identifying the correct Mac
    to get a matching part from reputable reseller.
    You could probably get a replacement battery
    from Apple, if the computer isn't really old...
    Or you could look online at places such as
    OWC where they offer a few batteries. Just
    be sure to avoid the low-end no-name clones
    from auction sites or cheap copy imports.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • How can I purchase an unlimited license for CS6 for small business use?

    How can I purchase an unlimited license for CS6 for use by a small business? We need to be able to use CS6 tools on at least 6 different computers, both macs and PCs.
    Do I have to purchase CS6 from another individual or business and transfer the license or is it still somehow available through Adobe? How can I determine how many users are allowed and the price of the product? Do I have to purchase the entire Creative Suite, or can I just purchase an unlimited license for Photoshop 6 only?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    You should contact Adobe support to get information on licensing mutliple machines.
