Creative Cloud for Teams - Trial only Software on Second Machine

I recently purchased Creative Cloud for Teams for my office.  Currently there is only one license, I am the licensed user as well as the Team Administrator.  I may be wrong, but I thought that my license allows for me to install apps on two machines, but any app I try to add to my second machine is always in Trial mode and prompts me to either buy a new Cloud membership or enter a serial number.
I tried deleting myself as the user, re-sending the invitation to join the CC for teams, clicked the link in my email to accept and set up Creative Cloud Desktop on my second machine, made sure I was signed in to the account and tried to download Photoshop, Lightroom, and Muse, but can't get them out of trial mode.  I tried updating the apps, and I also uninstalled them completely, signed out of Creative Cloud, cleaned my browser cache, signed bask in and reinstalled the software, no luck.  I'm still prompted for serial numbers on my second machine. 
Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks!

Okay, so now I'm back to being able to use CC for Teams on my work machine, but not my home one, even after the billing issue was fixed.  My subscription is active and is paid up to date, but nothing will get rid of the trial mode in all the apps on the second machine.  I'm the administrator for the Team account, we have one license currently and it is assigned to me using the same Adobe ID and password.  I tried removing myself from the license and inviting myself to join CC for Teams again, opened the email on my second machine and accepted the invite, and downloaded the CC desktop app on the second machine... all apps still download as tirals.  Uninstalled CC and all apps, reinstalled, ntohing.  Went back to my work machien, signed out of CC completely, signed in on the second machien.... same thing, all trial software, always prompted for serial numbers even after I sign in.

    Anyone please helps and thanks for advised.

    Hi Idea Color Thailand,
    There could few reasons why you are getting Serial no prompt. Please follow these steps to fix the issue
    1. If you have Windows 7 and above or OSX 10.7 and above machines then download and install Creative Cloud Desktop apps. it should fix the issue
    2. Check for Adobe Entries in Host file.
    Also you can refer to this KB:

  • Creative Cloud for Teams - second computer will only install as trial version

    Hi there
    My company purchased Creative Cloud for Teams. I use a Mac at work and have installed it without any problems there. However at home i use a PC (Windows 7) and i have tried several times to sign into my Creative Cloud account and download programs so i can work at home but each time it will only load the programs as trial versions.
    I have tried several troubleshooting options with no luck:
    Clicked sign in on the trial window - but it just asks me for a serial number which i obviously dont have.
    I asked my work IT dept to delete and resend my seat invitation which they did but it didnt fix the issue.
    I asked my work IT dept to check with the reseller we bought Creative Cloud for Teams from whether there were any restrictions or settings which wont allow to install on a second computer but they said it should be fine.
    My team mates at work have installed it on their home Macs without a problem, it seems to be only a PC issue.
    I have had CS6 on my computer previously but uninstalled it all in case this was causing the conflict - but it didnt fix the CC issue.
    I have uninstalled and used the Adobe Cleaner tool, then reinstalled but this didnt work - the trial days still kept counting down.
    I uninstalled again, used a Registery cleaning tool (cleaned registery, temp files, browser temp files etc), used the Adobe Cleaner tool (just to make it extra clean), and removed all traces of Adobe from my machine. I reinstalled Creative Cloud Application manager, installed Acrobat to try it out. This time the trial days have gone back to 30 (rather than zero). I clicked on the "sign in" button, it signs me in but still asks for a serial number.
    I tried contacting Adobe via the chat channel but was told after some time that i would need to speak to Tech Support. My dealings with Adobe Tech Support in the past haven't been the most fruitful, so i thought i would ask the forum as my last desperate attempt to solve this problem.
    Any and all suggestions welcome.
    Thanks!

  • Creative Cloud for teams downloads as a trial and asks for a serial number

    My employer purchased a Creative Cloud for teams account. I'm using my Adobe ID and trying to install the applications on my laptop at home. When the applications launch, they say I'm running a trail version. Then I'm given the option to license the software or continue the trial. When I click license this software, I sign in with my Adobe ID then it asks for a serial number. I don't have the serial number from my employer. Shouldn't it just be enough that I sign in with my registered Adobe ID and password?

  • Creative Cloud for teams stuck in a loop asking to renew subscription (Windows 7 64 Bit)

    Good Morning
    I have two of my creative cloud users who are being constantly asked to renew the subscription everytime they open one of Adobe's applications. THe subscription is currently active as we paid for the full year and it doesn't expire until March 6th 2015.
    I have tried deleting the file from the OOBE folder with no success, I have tried uninviting and then re-inviting the user to creative cloud, I have tried inviting a brand new user and logging in with their details, no joy.
    The only thing that works is to login with a trial user account just so we can use the software.
    Any suggestions please, Adobe fix your 'Expert 1:1 Support page' it doesn't even load!
    Regards

  • Issues with Creative Cloud for teams deployment workflow

    The Adobe Creative Cloud for teams IT Deployment Guide lists out steps for IT admins to deploy the CS6 applications and then have their end-users license the trial software with their Adobe IDs once they have been invited to the team. There are two major issues with this document.
    First, the media that is on the FTP is not for North American English. We are working to get that posted on the FTP site ASAP. In the meantime, you can find the CS6 MC media from: http://www.adobe.com/downloads/
    [Note: Getting media from that page requires the use of the Adobe Download Assistant which is very consumer focused. Sorry about that.]
    Second, in order to have the ability to login properly with a Creative Cloud for Teams account the system needs to have the latest copy of Adobe Application Manager installed. If you do not do this step the end user will be prompted for a serial number.
    Unfortunately the Adobe Application Manager can’t be packaged with AAMEE nor is it a native installer. I know, I know! Here are the links to the Adobe Application Manager installers:
    Windows: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4773
    Mac: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4774
    It can be installed from command line by:
    Win: <Path to Setup.exe>Set-up.exe –mode=silent –action=install
    Mac: <path to ASU> /ASU/Install.app/Contents/MacOS/Install –mode=silent –action=install

    Hi Boncker,
    I see that you have an active Subscription under your account . Please launch any of the installed product and when you get the trial prompt , please click on License this software and then Enter the Adobe Id & Password for the account that you have accepted the invite .
    Please do let us know if that worked for you or not .

  • Creative Cloud for Teams. I can not remove a user

    I am helping a friend who has bought Creative Cloud for Teams. I am myself a team admin for a company and that's why she asked me to help out.
    She has only one user on the team right now, her self. She is also the admin.
    Different User and Pass for each.
    Anniversary date is in July 2015.
    Trouble started four weeks ago in the beginning of October.
    The iMac was on System 10.7 but I updated to 10.10 when trying to solve the matter.
    I cleaned everything Adobe, using Adobe Cleaner and manually inside out, preferences, Libraries, Applications, Utilities…
    Installed again the Creative Cloud and started with Photoshop to try out once again.
    When she is logged into the Admin Console / Manage Team it shows very clearly that the User is Active.
    When she tries to open any CC application there is a message saying that the account has expired.
    When trying to remove the User, it is not possible and there is a yellow sticker saying: "We're sorry. Something seems to be wrong on our end. Please try again later. If this continues to fail, please contact customer support."
    The User can not use any of the CC applications and the only option now is to run a 30 days trial on the admins Adobe ID while we try solve this matter.
    Is anything of this familiar to anyone? Any suggestions?

    Oh, sorry…
    The problem was partly that the owner of the license should have assigned the first (and only) seat to the admin, herself, the buyer,
    Instead she assigned it to herself under another Adobe ID. She says she was told to do it this way but reading the instructions from Adobe says you should start by assigning the first seat to yourself/the admin.
    But that should not have caused such dramatic problems where she was not able to delete the user and correct it. Also the license for the assigned user expired – strangely after 5 months of use. There was something that happened at Adobe that made this stick and the problem had to be solved by them.
    In the meantime I made the admin a trial for 30 days and the problem was solved within that time and everything is fine now.
    Lesson learned: If one is buying a Team version, one should always assign the first seat to the admin – as the instructions says.

  • Creative Cloud for Teams and Single Apps

    Dear Adobe,
    I am an IT manager with a company that had 29 licenses of CS6, we now have Creative Cloud for teams, which is great. 
    However, Part of my company (the accounts side of things) only need Adobe Acrobat. 
    Why... WHY?  Can't I have 30 single app licenses for these users under the same account?  I got a call from your offshore licensing group and the woman who I talked to didn't seem to understand what I need. 
    I need the ability to give the entire creative cloud to some of my users.
    but for the rest, I need to be able to only roll out Acrobat...
    Thanks for the help

    I am in the same situation. I do the design work for my clients they look at and markup PDF files. They have their own software. To add them to the team cost me $70.00 a month, 22 of them would cost a lot of money.
    After setting up the first system Adobe took away file syncing the day after we had it setup. And team members were not able to see one another's files. Asking for a refund they transfer us to the special billing department for teams, then the line goes dead. I am guessing that my request for refunds is falling on deaf ears.
    Our solution was to acquire our own Cloud hosting server $299.00 a year and $22,000 (there are cheaper) for the Cloud Server. We will have save the Adobe solution costs within the first year.

  • Creative Cloud App Downloads-Trial only?

    Perhaps I missed this somewhere in the vast vault of Adobe information once one becomes a member and initiates a team for cooperative creativity. When heading into the cloud, all of the major applications are "Trial" versions only... I was under the impression that once become a member of the Creative Cloud, paid the first month's installment, that access would be for complete, non-trial applications. Or, does Adobe, at the close of the 30-day trial period, realize one is a member and converts the applications to full-time, non-trial programs? Guess my head has been "in the clouds" for too long, anyway... anyone have any info on this particular problem? Thank you.

    Hi Mudgeon,
    In Creative cloud for teams you will have to login to the www.creative.adobe.com as the administrator go to 'Team management'
    You will see the option to send the invitation to the users who want to use the subscription.
    You can send the invitation to the person by adding his email ---> that person will receive an invitation email ---> After accepting the invitation email he will be able to use the full version products.
    Thanks

  • How many times can a team member install Creative Cloud for teams ?

    How many times can a team member install Creative Cloud for teams ?
    Is it possible for one team member to install it for example on a portable mac and a desktop pc at the same time?

    From the Creative Cloud FAQ at https://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/faq.html under the Purchasing and getting started section:
    On how many computers can I install the software I download from Creative Cloud?
    You can install the desktop applications available in Creative Cloud on your primary computer and one backup computer, as long as they are not running at the same time. You will have access to both the Mac OS and Windows versions, so if you have a Mac at home and a PC at work, for instance, you can install your applications on both. See the product license agreements page for more information.

  • How to license Acrobat Pro as a single product in Creative Cloud for teams.

    We're just starting with Creative Cloud for teams and I have a question about purchasing it.
    We seem to have the option to either add all the products or to license for a single product.
    Since a lot of our users are only using Acrobat Pro we'd like to license only that, but when we add a single product license in our team Acrobat Pro is not in the list of applications.
    Any idea why?

    Hi,
    No way to remove it yourself,you must contact the customer service and normally they will remove it without any problem .

  • Disable access to the cloud storage feature for Creative Cloud for Teams?

    Is it possible to disable access to Creative Cloud Files when using Creative Cloud software for Teams/Volume Licensing customers? We're considering moving to Creative Cloud subscriptsions instead of traditional licensing and the ability to turn this feature off would be the easiest way to comply with our company's security requirments.
    Thanks.

    BrickyB, This is what the Creative Cloud FAQ says,
    My organization wants to block access to certain services, such as storage and access to community features, available through Creative Cloud. Is this possible?
    Yes, your IT administrators can block users from accessing the online services.  The online services and their URLs are listed here.
    As an administrator, you will also be able to deploy Creative Cloud desktop applications independent of the cloud-based services using the Creative Cloud Packager. The Creative Cloud Packager is available through Creative Cloud for teams.
    Check this for more details.

  • Licensing and costs for Creative Cloud for teams on small company

    Hello,
    I have a few questions regarding the teams solution.  They  are:
    1- Is the license by user or by computer?
    2- What is the actual cost of Creative Cloud for Teams ( small companies with less than 100 employees).  In some sections it states monthly cost of 69,99€ while others state 49,99€.
    3- Assuming the monthly cost of 69,99€ does this cost covers all products listed ( ilustrator, photoshop, dreamweaver, premiere,...) for a single user or  is that the cost per user and per product?
    4- How long do I have to keep the contract? Only 1 year?  If I want to cancel when should I communicate? or I just need to set on the console 0 users?
    5 - Assuming I have only one creative user can the admin console be installed in a different machine (e.g. network admin) without the need of an extra license? 
    6 - If I acquire 1 license and decide to drop it 1 year and 1 month after will I pay 1 year plus that month or do I need to pay the 2 years?
    Thanks for your feedback,
    Regards,
    Pedro
