Can I use my Windows Photoshop CS6 serial on a Mac?

I recently purchased CS6 for my pc.  Now, I have a Mac and am wondering if I can use the second download on my Mac.  Will Adobe issue me a Mac version?

when you give up your license, what does that mean exactly?
Nothing. You are just exchanging your PC version for a Mac version. Just like exchanging a pair of shoes that are the wrong size. You trade your PC version for the Mac. But, since software is software, not shoes, you have to commit or somehow authenticate you are not still using the PC version as well.
But, in referance to iCloud, I'm not convinced about the safety issues plus the ability to retrieve files as of yet.
Adobe Cloud is different from Apple iCloud. From what I understand... Adobe Cloud is really just a membership service. You keep the actual app and its products on your machine. Its activation is controlled via an internet connection. At least, that is my understanding.

    I just switched to Apple--Can I use my Windows Elememts 6 serial # if I download new OS X software from Adobe?  Do I have to purchase again?

    No you will not be able to swap your Windows Photoshop Elements 6 serial number and install media for a Macintosh Photoshop Elements 6 serial number and install media.  We do offer this but only for the current version which is version 10.  You do qualify for the upgrade pricing for Photoshop Elements 10 however.  You can find additional details at http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-elements.html.

  • Photoshop CS6 Serial Number Ineffective

    My Photoshop CS6 serial number won't work.  When entered I get a message telling me that two machines are in use and I must disconnect one of them.  If I can find a way to get around this fine, otherwise i will need another "workable" serial number and would like to know how to go about getting one if this is the case.

    You are only allowed to have the software activated on two machines at any given time.  The way around this is to deactivate one of the installations if you are aware of where these two existing installations are.
    If you are not aware of any other installations and/or this is a newly acquired serial number, then you need to contact Adobe Support by chat or by telephone.
    Here are some links to help make contact:

  • Photoshop cs6 dont change direction (mac osx 10.7.3) fron character window

    problem in photoshop cs6 beta middle eastern (mac osx 10.7.3)

    im sorry if my english not good
    thanks

    Somehow I'm pretty confident that I'm understanding you a lot better than you understand my post. 
    I understand you are using an ME version of Photoshop, so you need to be able to write both from left to right and from right to left.  You seem to be having problems reversing direction from one of the menu items, and those problems arise when you work with very large files.
    What I am telling you is that what may be precipitating those problems in large files is the very little hard drive space you have left in your one and only drive you have designated as your primary scratch disk, as evidenced by your screen shot:
    Since that drive "OS X" appears to be also your boot drive, that means that the paltry 12 GB of HD space you have left on that drive will have to be shared by Photoshop's scratch disk with the swap files of the OS.  That is not enough, in my opinion.
    I like to reserve a dedicated hard drive with 160 GB for Photoshop's scratch disk alone.
    Hope I explained myself better this time.

    How can I use both, Windows PC and iMac, when using WiFi?. It is either-or. What can I do?

    What does this have to do with using an iPad?
    But yes, you should be able to connect to your home WiFi network with multiple computers and devices. In my house my wife, my daughter and I will all be using the WiFi Internet connection at the same time with our Laptops and I will also be using my iPad, my daughter uses her iPhone, and we have no issues at all.
    Is this what you want to know about?

    Help with Adobe.premiere.elements12. Please
    It would appear under the organizer tab that the photos are organised in the lowest folder in the folder structure within Windows Explorer.  How can I use the Windows Explorer structure to organise the photos within Elements.

    In a situation such as yours, I tend to consolidate items into folders so I have folders of nice workable numbers of images, somewhere between 20 and 200 images. Now, whatever, once you've imported, do your moving within LR, not the OS! I will select all in a folder and drag into a folder a level or two or three above, and then delete the newly empty subfolders. I hope this helps a bit!
    Once you've reached just new Imports of camera output, you'll be flying along.

  • Can I use the Window XP bundled with MS virtual PC in setting up boot camp?

    Hi hi,
    before having the new 24" iMac, I have MS office professional for Mac running on my 17" G5 iMac it. The bundle pack contains Window xp professional software running on Virtual pc program.
    I want to install boot camp on my new intel mac but can i use the window xp program which is bundled with MS virtual pc software for setting up boot camp?
    please advise.
    iMac 24"   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Technically, so long as your bundled version is XP with service pack 2 then you should be able to use it.
    Legally, no. When Windows comes with a PC, even a virtual PC, it's license is for an OEM installation. While it's still functionally the same as a copy you'd buy in the store its license is for use only with that PC it came with and no others.
    Hope this helps! bill
