Can one subscription to lightroom 5 be available to my 2 different devices (laptop and main desktop)?

Hi,
I want to purchase a subscription for Lightroom 5.  I am looking in investing in a better laptop in a few months.  I plan on initially downloading LR5 to my desktop but hope to download it to my new laptop later on.  Will this be possible?
Also, what subscription would you recommend for LR5 for a photographer?
Thanks!
Nikki

Yes, you are allowed to install it on your laptop as well, but can only use it on one computer at a time.
The issue you will have to resolve is how you will manage your catalog(s).
I store mine on Dropbox and can then access it from either mac..BUT you have to be quite careful that you allow dropbox to update the catalogs before shutting down one computer and launching it on another - not a problem, it works great but you need to be aware of this. The other solution would be to copy the catalog each time you plan on going off with the laptop or using separate catalogs (probably not a good idea).
welcome to the LR community - I've just been here for about a year myself and really have learned a lot from our friends here..

  • HT204053 Can I use the same Apple ID for iMessage and FaceTime services from two different devices - iPhone and iPad?

    Can I use the same Apple ID for iMessage and FaceTime services simultaneously on two different devices - iPhone and iPad? It seems those are competing to each other, and the services work on one of them only (iPhone).

    Many thanks, Sir! Both are mine and it's good to know that imessage can work on both with the same Apple ID. Will now have to find out why imessage stopped working on iPad when it started on iPhone (new). After exploring the forum I understand  that there may be plenty of reasons why imessage does not work, even though it worked previously on the same device with the same ID.

  • Licenses - can I install on a laptop and a desktop

    Yes, like all apps from the Mac App store, you can buy once and install on multiple computers you own (I think up to 6).

  • Can I use the same email address for facetime on 2 different devices (ipod touch and a mini)

    can I use the same email address for facetime on 2 different devices (ipod touch and a mini)?
    I've set up my daughters ipod touch last year all fine. She's had a mini this yr but when setting up facetime and entering her email address, which is used on the touch, I get an error message saying the address is already being used.
    I thought you can use the same email address on multiple devices.

    I have four different email addresses setup on my Mac, iPod Touch and my two iPads that I can select from and use as the email address with no problems at all.
    Turn off FaceTime, and sign out of the Apple ID in the FaceTime settings, restart the iPad and try again. Turn FaceTime on again, sign in with the Apple ID and then try the email address again.

    Hello Regina0117
    If you already try other chargers and still not working, the best advise is for you to contact apple support, if you still in warranty they will change it for you for free.

  • Can one set up Lightroom to allow use of manufacturer's printer profiles and Advanced Color Settings

    I like the effects that I can apply to my B&W images using Advanced Color Settings, but understand that I get best print quality using the manufacturer's paper profiles. However, I get locked out of Advanced Color Settings unless I choose "Managed by Printer". Can I do both - select a specific paper profile and use Advanced Color Settings? Thanks

    I don't know what printer you are using. But if you want to use all of the controls in the Lightroom print module you need to let Lightroom manage the color. For my printer, this requires making that choice in Lightroom and then disabling color management in the printer driver. Then, using Lightroom, I am able to use all of those settings and choose the appropriate profile provided by the paper manufacturer.
    With my printer, if I choose to let the printer manage the color, I can make all of those choices in the printer driver. But you cannot split your management between Lightroom and your printer.  You have to go one way or the other.

  • Can one import their iTunes Library to a 7th Generation NANO on a laptop using OS 10.6.5?

    Can one import their iTunes library onto a 7th Generation NANO on OSX 10.6.5?

    The seventh generation iPod nano requires Mac OS X 10.6.8 and iTunes 10.7 or newer to sync; both of these are free updates for computers running Mac OS X 10.6.

  • I am watching a Creative Live Lightroom Crash Course with Jared Platt and Matt Kloskowski.  They mentioned that Lightroom CC was available.  I went to your site and clicked on it, but the download was for Lightroom 6.  What is going on?  I wanted Lightroo

    I am watching a Creative Live Lightroom Crash Course with Jared Platt and Matt Kloskowski.  They mentioned that Lightroom CC was available.  I went to the Adobe site and clicked on it, but the download was for Lightroom 6.  What is going on?  I wanted Lightroom CC.

    Yes, it looks like they've screwed up.  Some people have been able to update CC to LR6, some people get half way through the download and it fails, some people (me included don't get any option to upgrade to LR6 in the CC app... It's all very annoying.  I tried the help chat, and I got "log out of the CC and try again in 2-3 hours".  Well, that was half an hour ago, but I'm not holding my breath for getting LR6 today. 

  • How to have the same iTunes library on a laptop and a desktop and be able to sync an iPod and iPhone to each one

    I currently have iTunes 10 build 10.6.1.7 on my Win 7 home premium 64 bit laptop.  I used this computer as my desktop for a few months until I rebuilt my old desktop.  Now I want to put iTunes on the new desktop Win 7 64 bit computer.  I have both an Piod Classic 80 gig and an iPhone 4 16 gig.  Do to space limitations, I only sync a few of the items in the library with the iPhone.  I sync the entire library with the iPod.
    I want to be able to have the same library on both the laptop and desktop and sync both devices as descrbed above.  Is this possible?  If not possible, what is the reason for being able to have up to five machines auithorized for iTunes?  I'm thinking that it h as something to do with the apple ID, but I'm not sure.
    If I can't do this as I've described, what is the best way to accomplish something similar?
    BTW, iTunes on the laptop says version 10.6.3 is available, but when I click download, nothing happens.  How do I fix this?
    I've always found iTunes to be vrey confusing.
    Thanks for your advice.

    Is it possible to have an Iphone and an IPAD on the same Itunes account on a PC?
    yes.
    the number of mobile devices you can use with a single instance of iTunes is virtually unlimited.

  • How to I have one iTunes library that enables me to keep my music on my laptop, and my podcasts and audio books on a separately mapped hard drive?

    I'd like to enjoy ONE iTunes library on my laptop, which isn't big enough to store all my content, so I'd like my single iTunes library to have a LOCAL drive portion for my music, and then - when I'm at home, have my iTunes library be able to ALSO include a large library of podcasts & audio books.
    I currently have TWO iTunes libraries - a big one on a big drive at home, and a not-so-big on on my laptop.   This is, of course, a nightmare, because I have to resynch my iPod to use one or the other.    
    Ideally, I'd like to transfer content from my home PC iTunes OR my laptop iTunes - to my iPod and iPhone.     But I can only use one or the other library.     So, I guess the next best thing is - how to do this? - have an iTunes library on my laptop and then, when I have access to my home network, be able to see additional iTunes content - books and podcasts.    I need this in order to transfer books etc. to my iPod/iPhone, as well as music.
    Any suggestions?      In this regard - Windows is way the heck easier to manage than iTunes.
    thanks
    Jim

    Use your computer's backup to transfer your iTunes library from your old computer to your new computer per the instructions included with this link, or do the same with both computers networked in some fashion, which shouldn't be hard to do if both computers are connected to the same wireless network.

  • Can you use 2 apple tvs on the same network with different apple ids and how would your devices know which apple tv to stream to?

    Hi,
    I was looking into purchasing 2 apple tvs and was wondering if they can be setup with different apple ids. I need to have mine setup with my id and be able to hook my devices to it , but have the one in a bedroom hooked to a different apple id and have my friend's devices stream to that one and not mine.  Is this possible?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order that your Apple TV only streamed from your iTunes Library and your friends to your friends, you would both have to have different homesharing ID's.
    So far as devices go, any device on a network can stream over AirPlay to an Apple TV, to ensure each of you couldn't stream to the others device you can enable a password via the Apple TV which would then need entering when you used a device for AirPlay.
    Shouldn't be a problem to do what you want to do.
