Lightroom on second computer
I purchased Lightroom and can install it on two computers. I got a new computer, downloaded Lightroom and my 30 day trial expired but I can't figure out how to activate Lightroom on my new computer. I already paid for it and don't want to have to buy it again,
Moving this discussion to the Downloading, Installing, Setting Up forum.
Saran88773852 how did you install Photoshop Lightroom on the new computer? Did you download the installation files and then run the installer? Or did you use the Creative Cloud Desktop application to install Lightroom?

Install Lightroom on second computer?
How do I contact Adobe to get a second copy of Lightroom to install on a second computer? It says you can do this with one license, but they don't say how to contact Adobe to get the second copy. I tried using my serial number when the trial was over and it does not work.
thanks
SallyTurnerHi,
I just bought LR2 through the online store. I have installed it on my desk top and my lap top. I used the same ser. # for both installs and had no problem at all. I also installed pse7 from disc on both machines with no problem. I dont have the reason why it is not working for you. you should be able to do what you want. The only thing I can think of is if you had one machine running the program while you were trying to install the other one the install may have been stopped because you can only use one machine at a time.
Good luck

Installing photoshop lightroom on second computer
how do I install photoshop lightroom on a second computer The installer downloads but cannot download the software
Something is blocking your access to the Internet (or specifically Photoshop).
This can happen when something like a spyware / Trojan / adware checker is over cautious. In my case it turned out that Spybot search and destroy was being over cautious.
If this is what has happened to you you can try temporarily disabling your hosts file in the following way. This is assuming Windows 7 (you haven't said which version of Windows you are running).
Navigate to the following folder:-
%systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\
In my case this would be
C:\system32\drivers\etc\
Rename the file "hosts" to something else (in my case I called it "hosts - copy" but you can call it anything).
Try your activation again.
Then go back and change the hosts file back to its original name.
This might solve your problem.
Good luck

How do I install Lightroom on Second Computer
I have just bought a mac but already run lightroom on my windows laptop. It is my understanding that I can use my licence on 2 computers but I don't know how to do that. I tried downloading lightroom on my new mac and put in the serial code I was given but it just shows a big red x. Waited on hold for 30mins with customer service and gave up. I am extremely annoyed can someone help?
Hi jamerrick123,
Lightroom key provided are generally multi platform keys so it should work on windows and mac both.
I would suggest you to please check the version of lightroom you have downloaded because currently you will only find lightroom 5 in www.adobe.com and not the Lightroom 4.0
You can download lightroom 4 for mac from here

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...

Instal Lightroom on a second computer
I have Lightroom 5 (stand alone purchase in January 2014) on an iMac and have now purchased an Apple laptop. Can I install Lightroom on a second computer? If so, how?
Same as you did on the iMac.
Download Lightroom 5.7
Adobe - Lightroom : For Macintosh : Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.7
Install then enter your LR5 serial number. -
I purchased a multi-computer license of Lightroom 5. The first computer was no problem. I am unable to figure out how to get it onto a second computer. I have an Adobe account and can sign in. It shows my license. How do I get it for my laptop?
Thanks for the reply. I do not find a Creative Cloud APP. I bought the license outright, not on a monthly fee basis.

Hi, I just purchased Lightroom 5, I would like to license for a second computer, how do I do this.
You can use a single license of LR on 2 computers. Just install it. Nothing special required.

Can I download PS on the $9.99 program on more than one computer, as I have bought a second computer and want to work off both?
The $9.99 promotion license allows to separate computer activations for Photoshop and Lightroom CC. You may install the software on a second computer. In fact, you may install Photoshop and Lightroom CC in as may computers as you like. If you wan to use a third or fourth computer which have this software installed when you sign in your Creative Cloud account you will have to sign out from the other computer devices.

Lightroom 3 on a second computer
Hello!
Last year I bought Lightroom 3 which I downloaded on my work computer. I recently bought a personal computer and last week I bought the upgrade to Lightroom 4. Can I just download Lightroom 4 upgrade to my new computer or do I need to have Lightroom 3 first? I tried to download Lightroom 3 to the second computer, but cannot seem to find a copy of it. I believe we can use the program on two computers. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!Yes, it's sufficient to install LR4 only. you will be asked for your LR3 serial for verification.

Installing Lightroom from Bundle on Second Computer
I subscribe to the Photographers' bundle consisting of Lightroom and Photoshop. I attempted to install Lightroom on a second computer (laptop) but none of the product keys I have worked. (I tried using the key in the Photoshop Lightroom Bundle as well as individual Photoshop and Lightroom licenses, though I think those are older versions.) I obtained the latest version of lightroom by downloading a trial version.
SamSchaen please choose the option to License this Software when opening Photoshop Lightroom. You will then be given the option to enter an Adobe ID. Please enter the Adobe ID tied to your membership.
If you continue to experience difficulties then please uninstall your current installation of Photoshop Lightroom and reinstall through the Creative Cloud Desktop application. You can find more details at Install and update apps - https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html. -
