Have others experienced a nightmare in signing up for 3 computers on Creative Cloud?

Have others experienced a ridiculous nightmare, wanting to register 3 computers for Creative Cloud? I signed up for TWO subscriptions.  Spoke to supporton the phone to do this.  Got all signed up on my Adobe ID.... and have been charged for the second month now.
I only just realized that I couldn't use Photoshop on my laptop, because I have "exceeded my limit" of reigstered devices.  ON the phone with support, obviously in India, I spun my wheels, and spent an inordinate amount fo time, trying to figure out how to fix the issue... with the agent we couldn't even figure out how to FIND my two serial numbers on the computers, to determine which computer was registered with which computer.
After more than an hour of this, and the agent consulting his senior manager, he comes back on the line and informs me that I cannot register two subscriptions on one Adobe ID and email!!!
Then I insist on speaking with the manager.  He tells me the same.  I say why then did they even ACCEPT my two subscriptions on my ONE Adobe ID and email??  When I go to MY ADOBE account, it clearly shows the two orders, and the two subscriptions... and on my singel Adobe ID and email.
This is clearly ridiculous.
The manager has now asked me for 48 hours, for him to "discover who gave me the misinformation and when".  I told him that that is their internal issue.  I could care less about WHO and WHEN.  I only care about this issue being resolved, and as quickly as possible.  I will also insist on a refudn of the two months charged for a second subscription that was fraudulently accepted.
Has anyone else experienced this story, wanting to register for 3 computers (or more)?  What was your coutcome?
Adobe needs to fix this.

Just wondering why you didn't take the Creative Cloud for Teams route, rather than take out two subscriptions.  But do you the Application Manager installed on each machine?  If so, that should show who is signed in on each computer.  It sounds like the same user is signed on with all three computers, in which case sign out from the one with out your apps installed on, and sign in again using the other subscription ID.
If this proves problematic, uninstall the Application manager from the third machine, and sign in on the Adobe CC site with the new ID and start from scratch.
But surely it would be better to sort out the mess you are in, and swap your two subscriptions for a 'Team Subscription'.   Go ask in the Creatice Cloud Forum, and make it clear in the thread subject window that you need help from an Adobe staff member.  We frequently see Adobe staff step in on these forums, to fix complicated issues.

  • Signing up for the student/teacher Creative Cloud complete plan.

    Hi.
    I have an annual Creative Cloud Photography Plan - € 12,19/month (it's not a Student/Teacher plan, it was a promotion).
    I just noticed that, since I am a student, I could sign up for Creative Cloud complete - € 19,83/month.
    Do I need to cancel my current plan and sign up for the Student/Teacher plan? If so, how?
    Thank you.

    As far as I know, you need to cancel your non-Education plan and start over

  • Why sign up for multiple seats of Creative Cloud when I recently purchased 4 CS6 licenses?

    What is the benefit of signing up for Creative Cloud when I own 4 licenses of CS6 and there have been no upgrades?

    Hi Sweady,
    The CC version is different than the CS6 version. It would be the equivalent of CS7 if we would have kept that naming convention. The CC versions have new features different than CS6. You can see what's new on the individual product pages under the features section.
    Here are some examples

    I have the photographer plan With Photoshop and Lightroom. Now suddenly The creative cloud app says that Lightroom isn´t installed. It is and how do i fix this. I don´t want to loose any pictures. Tried logging in and out. Also restarted my Imac with no luck.

    This has nothing to do with your pictures. As long as LR works, nothing happens. The CC app merely has lost an entry in the installer database. Would a reinstall fix it? Sure. Is it necessary? Not really (until the next version or update). So unless you have too much time to spend or something isn't working, I'm sure you can find more interesting things to do with your tiem. Otherwise use the cleaner tool and get to it:

    YasmineH your web browser is blocking the installation of the AAM Detect plug-in.  I would recommend using a different web browser or installing through the Creative Cloud Desktop application.  You can find additional details on how to install the Adobe Creative applications included with your membership at Install and update apps - https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html.

  • Do I have to uninstall my old version of PS in order to install Creative Cloud?

    Do I have to uninstall my old version of PS in order to install Creative Cloud?

    No.
    Different versions of Adobe software install into their own separate folders on your hard drive so they can happily co-exist on the same computer.
    You can still launch and use the older versions at any time although it's often recommended to first close any apps you're not using.

    Each time I try to sign in, I get an error:

    I have activated it on one other machine - is this a problem?
    If so, can I remotely deacitvate another one in preference to my current machine?

    The Adobe licensing allows for you to have Creative Cloud applications installed on two computers. You should be able to activate Photoshop on your second machine. Have you actually tried logging in with your Adobe ID and password, or is this error occuring regardless?
