License for Windows and/or Mac

Hello everybody,
I was thinking about purchasing Web Premium CS4 and was wondering about the license. Currently I'm running on a Windows 7 desktop and was considering purchasing a Mac laptop. Would I be able to use the same key on the desktop and laptop or can I only install on one machine? Also, would a Windows key work on a Mac copy even if it is the only copy installed?
Thanks

Just spent 60 minuts with Adobe Lack of Support.   Basically, you can use one license on 2 machines but you can only use one machine at a time according to person I chatted with.
I would say no to using a MAC version license on a PC as they know just from the license number which product it belongs to.

  • Same license for Windows and Mac?

    Hi, I just got Production Premium CS6 for Windows, but I'm about to buy a Mac. Will my license work for both? Do I need to uninstall it for Windows when I switch to Mac? Do I need to purchase a completely different license?

    No.
    The perpetually licensed Suites (which includes Production Premium) are platform specific: Windows only or Mac only.
    The Creative Cloud is multi-platform. The same license works on Windows and/or Mac.

    If you buy a new full Mac version (most expensive route) then no. You will then have a Windows only license and a Mac only license.
    If you choose to "crossgrade" (swap the Windows only license for a Mac only license) then your Windows version will no longer be licensed so you'd uninstall that.

    Yes if you want to switch your Windows only CS6 to a Mac only CS6 - known as a "crossgrade".

  • Are LabView licenses for Windows transferrable to Mac OS X?

    I can't seem to find any information on this subject on the National Instruments or in a search on this forum, so hopefully someone can answer these questions.
    My lab has 3 licenses for the use of LabView 8.5 in our lab, although the instructions that I've been given to install LabView involve downloading the trial software from National Instruments' website, and then using the activation code to activate the software. Trouble is, the trial software is for Windows only, and I was hoping to be able to run LabView on the Mac in our lab.
    Are the licenses for LabView transferrable across platforms, or does my lab need to specifically purchase a version of LabView for the Mac? If the licenses *are* transferrable, how do I request a CD for the Mac installers if we've already purchased LabView for Windows? Furthermore, if I'm able to use these licenses on a Mac, is it possible to install the Windows version on my Mac on my Boot Camp partition, and install the Mac version on my Mac OS X partition and only use up one license? I'm not sure if all of our hardware has drivers that will run under Mac OS X on an Intel Mac, and I don't want to be penalized for this by having to use up two licenses on the same machine.
    Any answers to these questions would be much appreciated.

    Hi SimX,
    The LabVIEW licenses are not transferrable directly, since LabVIEW for Windows and LabVIEW for Mac are entirely different products and have different installers.
    In this case, you should contact your local sales representative to see what your options are. You can find the email contact information at http://sine.ni.com/apps/utf8/nicc.call_me?p_lang_id=us, or call in to 866-ASK-MYNI (866-275-6964).

  • How do I exchange platforms for Elements 13 that I inadvertently ordered for Windows and require Mac OS 10?  Case #0215407071.

    How do I get Adobe to respond to me on above question?

    Adobe does not sell older versions of their software, so the best you might hope for if the software will not run on Vista is to get a refund.

  • I purchased photoshop cs5 for windows and want to install a license on my new MacBook Pro?

    Is there a way that I can exchange my serial number for my third license for one that is compatible with Mac?

    They have told it correct , you cannot have the windows and the mac serial number both , serial number of adobe are platform dependent hence you can have only one serial number either for mac or windows.
    If you have bought Mac then you ask for a platform swap , wherein a new serial number and installtion media will be provided to you for mac but then your windows serial number will be cancelled and you will not be able to use it.

  • Can I have a Single Licence for Windows and Mac?

    I have PS CS4 for Windows installed on my desktop computer. I have recently bought a MacBook Pro. Can I install PS on my new laptop using my Windows licence or must I buy another licence.

    If you have a windows clone software installed, then it should be fine. But if you want the mac version of photoshop, then normally you would buy the CS4 photoshop for Mac as the CD version comes with only 1 license for 1 platform.
    However, since CS4 is not the current version you could subscribe to the cloud and that license is for Windows and Mac.

  • I have a CS3 for windows and I switched to a mac.  Can I get a mac version without having to pay for the suite again

    I have a CS3 for windows and I switched to a mac.  Can I get a mac version without having to pay for the suite again?

    No.
    Adobe only offers a Platform Swap on current software: Order product | Platform, language swap
    CS3 is also too old to have an "upgrade path" and is no longer sold or supported by Adobe.
    You do, as a CS3 owner, qualify for a 40% discount on your first year of a Creative Cloud Subscription though: Creative Cloud pricing and membership plans | Adobe Creative Cloud
    If you don't want to go with the subscription service, Adobe does still offer CS6 (4 versions away from current & no longer receiving updates) as a "one time payment/download" perpetual license: Creative Suite 6

  • I purchased Photoshop Elements for windows and need it on mac

    I purchased Photoshop Elements for Windows and need it for Mac.  Can I reverse this or is there a way to get the right product?

    I don't know if things have changed (I get the feeling they have as of late), but normally an Elements license can be applied to either platform, so you should be able to download the trial  version for the Mac and use the serial number to activate it.  If you have any problem you should be able to resolve it with customer spport thru chat.

  • Use external drive for windows and mac

    Hello,
    I just bought a external 320Gb Western Digital Drive. I would like to use
    the drive for windows and mac.I will not like to make partation on the drive
    to use it on both operating systems. Is there any formating system with which i can use in both operating systems? I would like to use time machine feature on that drive also.
    Thanx.

    If you want to use a disk for both PC/Mac file storage and Time Machine, you will have to create two partitions. Partitioning is sort of like creating multiple virtual disks on the same physical disk. One partition should be formatted for PC (which the Mac can also use) and the other should be formatted for HFS+ (Mac only) which is what Time Machine requires. The Disk Utility application makes partitioning and formatting very easy.

  • For printer LaserJet Profession​al CM1410 any chance to set printing password for windows and MAC

    Dear All
    for printer  LaserJet Professional CM1410 any chance to set printing password for windows and MAC?please help?

    What Windows OS are you using?  Are you networked?
    If you are networked, you have to setup your file and print sharing options in order to require password assess.  If you are just trying to control specific files from being printed, you can do that, too.
    If you are just trying to control the amount of printing off of a single PC with a printer, you could setup different accounts for each user and limit their access. 
    Some of the commercial printers can have password options, but I do not find any password options for the CM 1410, other than what I provided earlier.
    If I have been helpful, a Kudo is always appreciated.

  • Online backup for Windows and Mac

    Is there an online backup service that works with Windows and Mac and lets you use the same login? Meaning, one service, one service to pay and same login? Also, the service shouldn't bill by each desktop (as Mozy does) but instead by overall space needed.
    I currently use one service for Windows and another for Mac. I'd like to consolidate everything.

    That's always the risk, it's what happened to MediaMax (though in their case it was technical incompetence). They've been around for at least a year, but I can't offer any guarantees, obviously.
    the MobileMe idisk might be a possible solution but it's not brilliant with Windows.
