One account using two computers

I know there have been a few posts about this. But I can't seem to find a straight answer. Keeps talking about a PC and a Mac.
I have two macs, one at work and one at home.
1. When I come home, I want to work on my home computer. Do I have to make sure all the programs are closed on my work computer, to use Creative Cloud at home?
2. Im thinking about getting a new computer in a few months, can I easily then deactive my old computer and install the cloud on my new machine?

Question # 1 answer:
You do not have to make sure the programs are closed on the work computer. The license agreement is that you will not use the software on two computers at the same time.
Question # 2 answer:
As Amit has answered above. You have two activations. When you try to activate on a third computer you will be asked about deactivating on the others.

Using one account on two computers

Howdy! I have itunes on my PC Tower. I just bought a MacBook Pro and wanted to buy a song, but "it said no" .... I have to create an account first. My ID/Password did not work. Can I just have one ID for both computers?
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.9) 2.0 gig ram

You may need to 'authorize' your new computer under the Store menu from w/in iTunes. Keep in mind that your iPod (if you use one) will only sync with one computer--not both. Also, the songs you buy on one computer will not automatically show up on the other--you will need to transfer them yourself (burn a CD, copy files, etc.)

Merging mail from one account on two computers

I have mail up until December 2007 on my Mac Mini and mail from December 1 to present on my Powerbook. I want to get all my mail until now onto just one computer.
Can anyone tell me the best way to do this?
Thanks in advance
MK

See Mail | Help and in the search box, type "importing email into Mail"
Mail Help doesn't say so, but I would be sure to make a copy of your /Users/mk/Library/Mail before starting, just in case something terrible were to happen. Single-click on that folder then control-click on it and select "Make Archive".
Find a firewire cable and connect the two computers together via firewire. On the one from which you want to import mail, reboot it while holding down the "T" key -- let up once you see the big firewire symbol on a blue screen. An icon of that computer should now show up on the desktop of the computer to which you want to import its mail. Then follow the instructions in Mail Help.
I don't know if "import Mail" creates new mail folders or not when you do this. But whatever, if it does, once the messages have been imported, you can drag them to whatever mailbox is appropriate then delete the newly created imported mail folders once they are empty.
If something goes terribly wrong (like the import operation overwrites your existing messages or something ugly like that), just drag the /Users/mk/Library/Mail folder to the Trash and doubleclick on the /Users/mk/Library/Archive.zip that was created when you made the archive of your Mail folder three paragraphs ago. Then you'll be back to where you started.

How do i have one account on two computers

I am fixing to leave for college and my phone and ipod is synched onto my family desktop. I am wanting to change that too my laptop but still have all of my music using my mom's itunes account. PLEASE HELP!

The iCloud service would only work if you had a wifi connection when you are traveling. You could also use a flash drive to store your music. Same concept. I can see how a big hard drive would get a bit annoying, but since your iTunes library is relatively small. You could just get a small 4GB flash drive. That would work fine too. That is your only option unless you want to transfer that data whenever you travel, which wouldnt be too big of a hassle really, right? iCloud requires a Network connection to work.

HT1206 Lots of info about one user using multiple computers. What about multiple users with separate Apple IDs using same computer? Having problems getting my wifes new iPhone talking to her apple account on the computer we share (2 users)

You need to create a user account for your wife (or yourself depending on who has the current user account). When syncing, each of you should sign in as a separate user, login to iTunes and then sync. I had this problem when my sister got an iPhone. When we did her initial sync, everything on my iPhone showed up on hers. Apple gave me this solution.

Hi all - is it really possible to use one license for two computers or is it just a rumor?

I heard that it would be possible that you can use one license for two computers. Is that the truth? And if so - how does it work?
Thanks

Adobe CC or any perpetual previous version allows you to install & activate it two times (on the same computer or other different one).
As per End user license agreement, only one computer can be used at one given time.
Please refer to:
Licenses and terms of use | Adobe
Adobe - Adobe product license agreements
Hope it helps you.

How to use ONE IPod on TWO Computers

I have an Desktop-PC using ITunes 5.0 and an IPod 20 GB. When I connect my IPod with my Laptop, the complete IPod is deleting by the ITunes on the Laptop. How can I use ONE IPod on TWO Computers without deleting the music hole time?!

I think you need to manually update on at least the computer that has the smaller music selection.
it may be best to turn off automatic updates on both machines and manually add and delete songs.
or you could network both computers to share one music library

I can use the same account on two computers?

I can use the same account on two computers?

You can use the same serial number on two computers, given the conditions in the end-user license agreement (You cannot have Lightroom using the same serial number in use on two computers at the same time, and both installations must be for your own personal use.)

I have one Iphone, and two computers. They both have different purchases on them. One is older than the other. and one was my moms. How do i get the ringtones off of my computer and onto my moms computer to use all of them on my Iphone?

Copy them to a cd/dvd/flash drive/external drive/etc, then to the other computer.
E-mail them.

Using two computers and nano

I am just about buying Ipod nano and this kind of question comes to my head. Ok. I use two computers at the same time (PC + laptop) as I travel a lot, so I'd like to know whether I can use nano on both of them? Meaning, can I plug nano to PC, download music, then get to train/plane and plug it to my laptop and download new stuff onto nano?
I've heard that nano registers to only one computer. Is it true? Does it mean that I cannot listen to music stored on my laptop if it is registered to PC?

Actually, the page I linked to is on this site. It's part of Apple's "Knowledge Base." Under the main support site, if you search for a problem, articles like the one I linked to will be found.

How do I change Itunes from one account to two in my home?

You don't.

Is there any way to work on one Catalog from two computers simultaenously?

Is there any way to work on one Catalog from two computers simultaenously?
I have a catalog with 7000 images we have to process / crop / etc. and I was trying to find a way that two of us could work on the images at the same time.
Thanks!

No, the LR catalog is not multi user capable (and cannot reside on a network share without tricks). What you could do is
export part of the catalog (a subset of all images) into a separate catalog ("Export as Catalog", without exporting the negatives)
work on different images in the two catalogs at the same time
re-import ("Import from Catalog") the exported work after adjustments on it is finished

Happy Holidays. I have Adobe Actobat 7.0 Standard for quite a while, and I'm happy with it. I use it for mainly filings at the federal court. They require PDF. I use two computers in two different states for work. I realize my Adobe 7.1 is a few years

. I have Adobe Actobat 7.0 Standard for quite a while, and I'm happy with it. I use it for mainly filings at the federal court. They require PDF. I use two computers in two different states for work. I realize my Adobe 7.1 is a few years old, but sometimes I have difficulty using it with the other days downloading a boarding pass, and e filing at the USDC. . There's a problem with Adobe Flash, media, etc. and other Adobe programs, (which I use for downloading boarding passes for airlines, etc.) so basically I have to delete these other Adobe programs, besides the Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Standard if I want to 7.0 Standard to work. I periodically download the updates, but there's still a problem. My question is: Can or should I purchase another program to update the present Adobe Acrobat 7.0 standard, or just buy a new program such as the Adobe 11? Am I mistakenly doing something wrong, such as when I download? I'm an old valued customer so I don't want to spend a lot of money since I am replacing my Dell XP for a new computer now, and my other computer is a Dell Vista.
I'd appreciate your valued advice.

If you are getting a new computer (for a PC it would have Win 7 or 8), then you will need to purchase XI if you wish to continue using Acrobat. Acrobat 7 is not compatible with these systems (and probably the same for MAC systems), though sometimes workarounds are possible, though not easy to use. I guess the answer is to buy the new version. Try http://www.adobe.com/products/catalog/software._sl_id-contentfilter_sl_catalog_sl_software _sl_mostpopular.html, click on the Buy for Acrobat, and then select the version you want.

Sharing one itunes account with two computers

I used to share my itunes account with my sister and our ipods were synched to one computer. We now have two new computers and would still like to continue to share that account. Is it possible to open the same account on two separate computers?

Explain how you transfer content manually.
Control-click or right-click it in iTunes, choose Get Info, locate the music files, move them to the other computer's hard disk as you would any other type of file, and then drag them into the open iTunes window. By default on a Mac, dragging them to the open iTunes window also copies them to the hard disk.
