How many PCs can i install PS CS6 on?

I am considering purchasing the new Photoshop CS6, possibly the extended version.
Can i install it on both my laptop and PC?
And what happens in the horrifying event of a hard drive loss and backup failure? It is a huge amount of money to invest and i am worried about the potential risk of losing the software. If this happens will i be able to re-install it without re-purchasing?
Thanks in advance

Noel the two  bad options are.    What is particularly bad is Adobe tried to make these options global and not just be in effect when the adjustment panel is used to add an adjustment layer.
In the past adjustment layer always came with a Layer Mask it was never an option no action was required nothing needed to be coded to have a layer mask added and nothing was recorded into action steps or scripts that there was be or not to be a layer mask.  So any Action, Script and possibly Plug-in that added and adjustment layer and modified its layer mask will fail. If this option is not set to its default setting.  Even if you change the setting Photoshop does not always not add a layer mask. If there is an active selection a layer mask will still be added. So the option does not work always. 
The second option clip to previous layer has always been an option and if used the option was recorded in actions and coder in scripts and plug ins.  However nothing special was recoded or coded if you wanted the adjustment layer to apply  to all layer below the adjustment was added by default not clipped.   When this option is in its default state it does not, not clip adjustment layers that were recorded clipped or coded clipped these are still clipped.  However if you set it to Clip added adjustment recorded in actions that should be added by default not clipped are now clipped. This may also happen in Plug in and scripts that coded add adjustment layers letting it default to all these may be clipped.
Here are some simple silly actions I recorded with CS6 that adds adjustment layers which are played with in the actions.  Versions of Photoshop prior to CS4 will have no problems for these bad options were added in CS4.  CS4, CS5 and CS6 will play the action when these options are set to their default setting.  The Actions will have problems otherwise. http://www.mouseprints.net/old/dpr/AdjustmentLayers.atn  No document need be open just play the actions with options set  to their default setting. Then change an option and play again.

  • On how many systems can i install dreamweaver cs6

    About a month ago i have format my whole old pc with also dreamweaver cs6 deleted (i had troubles with my whole pc, thats the reason to format the whole pc) I sell the empty pc. only windows 7 on it.
    Now i have an new pc. and i have installed dreamweaver cs6 on it. it works ok.
    My question is: on how many computers can i install dreamweaver cs6
    I have in my home 2 times the program installed. one on this pc and one on the pc that i selled (The program dreamweaver cs6 was not anymore on that pc that i selled. I had deleted it)
    Now I would like to sell the adobe dreamweaver cs6, becaus i don't need it anymore. is this possible? because i had installed it on two systems in my home. one on this system and one on a system that i selled (deleted the DWcs6 on the selled pc).

    You seem to be asking two different questions.
    The answer to how many computers you can install Dreamweaver on is two. However, if you want to sell Dreamweaver, you must transfer the licence entirely to the other person. In other words, you can't keep Dreamweaver on one of your computers, and sell the other permitted installation to someone else.
    Details of how to tranfer the licence (or sell your copy) can be found here: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/transfer-product-license.html.
    However, you say that you deleted your version from one computer. That's not enough. You should have deactivated it first. You will need to get Adobe to cancel the activation on the computer you no longer have. Otherwise, the person who buys from you won't be able to install on two computers.

  • How many PCs can I install this on concurrently?

    Hi i currently have Creative Cloud Photography plan, I run a small photography business, currently i have the Creative Cloud Photography plan.  As I've added an assistant to help with the business i would like for him to have Photoshop and Lightroom at his workstation.
    Am I allowed to install these apps on this pc as well and use them concurrently?  If now how would i best go about getting one more license?
    Thank you.

    well, you are allowed two concurrent installations and activations.  but they're both supposed to be for your own use.
    allowing an assistant to use one of your two activations is a violation of adobe's tos.  (i doubt you'll be arrested, but you should obtain two licenses for two different people to use the software.)

  • How many PCs can I install Captivate 6.0 on if I purchase a single license?

    I can't find this information anywhere. My two coworkers and I have Captivate 5 and want to upgrade to 6, but we are not sure if we can use the same license key for all three of our PCs. Does anyone have this info?
    Thanks
    Meg

    Hi Meg
    Normally a license may be used on two different PCs. One intended for a work computer and one intended for a home computer in case you take work home.
    I'm sure Adobe would frown upon using the two activations to occur on two work PCs that are used simultaneously.
    You need three licenses. That would grant you six activations. One on each of the three work PCs and one on each user's home PC.
    Keep in mind that I'm not a legal professional nor did I stay overnight at a Holiday Inn Express.
    Cheers... Rick

  • How many pc can I instal my CS5

    Hi, Just want to know if I how many computers can I install my adobe photoshop cs5

    Two.
    The license is for ONE user and two computers that are not used at the same time, for instance your desktop and your laptop computers.
    The serial number of the license for CS5 is pretty platform-specific, either both Macs or both PCs.

  • How many laptops can I install on with only one lightroom 6 license? (not cc version)

    I read from somewhere that one creative cloud  account can be used on two different devices, but what about the lightroom 6 version?
    If I pay $149 for lightroom 6, how many laptops can I install on? I now have one windows laptop and one mac.
    Thanks for helping.

    I selected yours as the correct answer because of the webpage you provided, but I cannot understand that what "only use it on one computer at a time".
    If the software is for offline use, how does it know if I'm running it on another computer?

  • How many computers can I install Photoshop Elements 12 on?

    How many computers can I install Photoshop Elements 12 on?

    No, if you mean can you copy the installed version over. That never works because PSE is a highly complex program that strews stuff all over your hard drive and you can never hope to find all the bits and bobs. You should deactivate it on the computer you no  longer need, then install from scratch on the new machine.
