Instaliing CS on a second computer

I own a CS6 Adobe Design Standart, teacher and student edition. I need to install the very same version on a second computer. Can I just purchase another serial number based on my current credentials?

If you own, or are the primary user of, a single-user or volume license Adobe product that is installed on a computer at work, you can also install and use the software on one secondary computer of the same platform at home or on a portable computer. However, you may not run the software simultaneously on both the primary and secondary computers.
No more than one user can use a single-user license Adobe product.
For more information regarding Adobe's activation policy, including recent changes, see the Product Activation FAQ.

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!

Can't install Lightroom 5 on a second computer, I am NOT a creative cloud customer, I am a stand-alone user. How do I enter my serial number???

I can't install Lightroom 5 on a second computer, I am NOT a creative cloud customer, I am a stand-alone user. But when I try to install on my laptop, it always trys to sell me the monthly membership. How do I enter my serial number in the second copy of lightroom? It won't ask me for it, and I cannot enter it anywhere in the settings? I am stuck

You probably downloaded the Cloud version. Get the licensed version thru the following linked page...

I don't seem to be able to transfer the music on my Ipod classic to a second computer.

I have enabled Homesharing and switched to Manual mode from Automatic. When I try to transfer from the Ipod I get a warning that I will loose the files on the Ipod if I sync the Ipod with my second computer.

How do I install FCPX on a second computer?

Hi, I was told that I can now install FCPX on a second computer. Is this correct? If so, how do I do it? The only options I see are to download the free trial, or "buy" - which takes me to the iTunes store and pay $299 again. How do I do it?

Yes....

I cannot copy the sync code fromthe second computer back to the first!

When I try to sync my PC with my laptop, I am unable to copy the code from my second computer to my PC. I don't know what I am doing wrong - but both come up with a code and I cannot even get as far as putting in my 'sync' number.
Anyhelp would be appreciated. I have tried following the steps given on adding another device but I get stuck when it comes to this three-part code.

No it didn't solve my problem - I still cannot type a code into the "Add a Device' page. A code comes up in both my PC and my laptop - but they appear to be 'fixed' and I cannot type over them into the boxes.
Please help as I want to take my laptop overseas and would like to have my bookmarks and passwords with me.

I am a newbie...and I think I did a big no-no as my Ipad isn't working. I synced it to a second computer at work which is a new Imac after already syncing to my pc at home with Itunes. Now it says it can't restore and can't get it to open. HELP!

iPad can connect only in one iTunes Library. If you want to connect it to a iTunes Library then you have to erase it. You can erase it from iTunes. Make sure you iPad doesn't have a password, or if it has a password make sure that you connect to the computer and enter the password of your iPad

I signed up for sync on one computer and got a pairing code on the second computer but now I can't bring up the pairing screen on the first computer. Why not?

I set up sync on the first computer, then got a sync code on the second computer. Now I can't bring up the sync screen on the first computer to sync them together.

HT1495 I have just purchased a second ipod and have 2 computers can i use one ipod on each computer with the same account. I have a different playlist on my second computer. Thanks,

I have just purchased a second ipod and have two computers w7 and xp, can i use one on each computer with the same account. I have a different playlist on my second computer. Thanks.

Sorry to ask, how do I do it please. I have my first ipod with the same account on both computers that have different libraries one of which I am building now. Do I have to de-authorise my original ipod on the computer that I want to use my new ipod on with the new library and then register my new ipod. I would rather do this than have 2 libraries on one itunes, but keep the same account details.

Can I use my creative cloud membership on a second computer?

Can anyone tell me if I am permitted to use my adobe creative cloud membership on a second computer and if so, how do I download the apps?

Creative Cloud Help | Creative Cloud / Common Questions
Can I use the software I download from Creative Cloud on more than one machine?
Yes. Creative Cloud desktop applications can be downloaded and installed on multiple computers, regardless of operating system. However, activation is limited to two machines per individual associated with the membership. See the terms of use for more information. Learn how to deactivate a Creative Cloud license on a machine.
if so, how do I download the apps?
Same way as you did the first time.
Sign in to creative.adobe.com, download the Cloud desktop app then download the software.

Using a second computer as a external midi instrument or DAW slave?

So this is my current setup:
iMac 24(FW 800 & 400) with logic 8 & reason 4,
Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 firewire (x2) sound card/pre-amp,
Blackbook with MainStage & Reason 4.
& this is what I would like to do:
Use my imac as my main DAW master, (currently tracking to an external FW800 drive & pulling loops from a USB drive), & use my blackbook to run reason as a external midi device or slave.
My Saffire Pro 40 has 2xFW400 ports so I can connect both machines to it.
The idea behind this setup is to pull as many software sounds from the Blackbook & mainly use the imac to run Logic.
Does this make sense? & if so, what's the best way to execute this?
thanks in advance

Hello -
I'm not entirely sure that one audio device such as the Saffire Pro 40 with 2 Firewire ports can be shared between two computers. It was always my impression that the second Firewire port was available to "daisy chain" another audio device or hard drive. Before you proceed, you might want to check with the company that manufactures the Saffire Pro 40 and make sure that two computers can interphase with it.
With regards to using a second computer as a "slave machine", it seems that many, many people do have such configurations to help spread the CPU and memory work-load. My happy Mac Pro is set up to work with a potential of two other "slave machines". When I use this set up, it works wonderfully. But, for most of the time, my happy Mac Pro can manage most sequencing projects (mostly orchestral with LOTS of instruments) on its own. Each computer, however, has its own audio device. All are connected to the Mac Pro using the ADAT light inputs/outputs from each audio device (I use MOTU's audio devices) and are managed midi-wise using Music Lab's MOLCP 3.
Good luck. . .

How do I add a second computer to my account?

How do I add a second computer to my account?

Your single license allows you to have two active installations, meaning you can have it installed and enabled on two machines. You can have the software installed on as many machines as you like, but only two of them can be in an activated state at a given time.
As far as using the two machines at the same time goes, the jury is currently out on that - I had the question in for clarification but did not get a response yet. They recently rewrote the license agreement and the portion that explicitly stated you cannot use the two at the same time was either removed or relocated somewhere else that I have yet to find.
If you mean that you want to have another machine licensed for someone else to use then you need to buy a new license for that other person.
