PC Design Standard Activation on Additional Computers

I purchased Design Standard CS6 in 2012 and installed it onto my laptop, and registered its serial number in my Adobe ID. I am trying to reinstall the same software on my desktop now. This has been successful up until the point where when I open Photoshop I am asked to sign into my Adobe ID to register the software again. I correctly input my sign-in information, but I am unable to sign in. Photoshop's sign-in window loads for 30 minutes after I enter my information and then times out, stating that I am not connected to the Internet. Is there a solution to this problem?
Is there a way for me to re-activate the software on my desktop without having to sign in through the application's sign-in window?
Thank you!

You can install it on as many machines as you like, but it can ever only be activated on 2 of them. Of course you can deactivate and activate as needed occasionally, but in the long run this may get tedious...

  • Using Adobe CS6 Design Standard license on three computers?

    I bought Adobe CS6  Design Standard a few months back. I had  installed it on one mac and one Windows PC, both of which are my personal home computers. I am buying another MacBook. Can I install the same license number on the new Mac also, making it a total of three machines? I know Adobe allows you to use it on two computers at once. But is it Ok to have it on third one also?  I am sure I will never use more than two machines at  one time.

  • Installing and activating Creative Suite 6 Design Standard on two computers?

    Hello!
    I purchased Creative Suite 6: Design Standard as a physical copy (with a CD) about a couple of years ago. I've installed it on my iMac, but now that I purchased a Mac Book Pro, I'd also like to install the package on the laptop. My new Mac Book Pro 13" with Retina display does not have a CD/DVD drive.
    First of all, is it possible to have an Adobe package installed and activated on two computers simultaneously?
    I tried to download the Creative Suite 6 from the Downloads on Adobe website and activate it on my laptop with the serial number that I received when I purchased the product, but the serial number did NOT work. It says "The serial number you entered is invalid." Does this problem occur because the serial number is in use on the Creative Suite, which is installed and activated on my iMac?
    Is there another way to download + install + activate the package on my laptop? Obviously without a CD/DVD drive I cannot use the physical installation CD that I purchased.
    Thanks for help in advance, I really appreciate it!

    Hello!
    Thanks for the reply. I've been looking into this problem more but haven't been successful in solving it. Getting a bit frustrated with this!
    The serial number seems to be the issue.. I don't know why it won't go through. Do I need a different serial number to activate a Creative Suite 6 Design Standard downloaded from the Adobe website? I used the same serial number that can be found on the back of the product box that I purchased a couple of years ago. So far I have installed and activated my product only with my iMac, and now attempting to activate it with my Mac Book Pro, so the problem is not that it's been activated too many times.
    When I finally do manage to activate this software also on my laptop, do I have to deactivate and activate it every time I wish to switch from one computer to the other? Is there a limit to how many times it can be activated/deactivated?
    Thanks again for your help!
    P.s. I also consulted this person https://forums.adobe.com/people/Nikhil%20Bisne (not sure if he is around, though) on my issue, because he was able to help somebody with a similar issue here: Re: Invalid Serial Number . The difference being that this person was activating their software for the first time, I'm trying to activate it a second time on a different machine (while still keeping the software activated on the first machine).

    About a year ago I purchased the student addition of the Adobe Creative suite 6 Design Standard and just recently purchased an additional computer for my home. Can I use the same disc that I previously purchased to download the program?

    Yes, as long as the machine meets the system requirements for the software you can install and activate it.  Your license allows you to have the software installed and activated on two machines.

    I am retired.  In my active years, I purchased Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Standard and Dreamweaver CS5 for my Windows environment.  I recently spent a fortune to migrate to  Apple.  I now (and a bite late) realize that my licenses are not recognized by Adobe. I am desperate. I cannot afford the expense of buying or paying access to the software and, still,  I need the tools for all those little things I do for enjoyment. What can be done?

    The licenses are operating system specific, so one option would be to retain use of the Windows machine you had before the Mac.
    If you want to try to use the older stuff on your new Mac you can try installing Windows emulation software such as Bootcamp.

    Hi, I am working with CS6 Design Standard for Mac, I bought from Adobe a DVD with the Software. I installed it already on my mac book. Soon I wanna buy a second computer for my work. When I bought the software I was told that it is possible to install the software on a second computer. But I also read lately that I will only be allowed to work with one computer. I want to work on both of my computers without de/installing and de/activating the software every time. Is this possible? Thank you!!

    You should be able to install the products on two computers as long as they are not running at same. Also the platform should be MAC.

  • The serial number has aleady been activated on 2 computers

    When I start Illustrator I get an error 'Activation limit reached for Adobe Creative Suite 5 Design Standard', 'The serial number has already been activated on 2 computers'.
    The computers it was previously on have been wiped clean so I cant deactivate it on them. The help docs say this:
    What happens if my  computer is stolen or damaged and cannot be repaired?
    If your  computer is stolen, damaged beyond repair or the hard drive is completely  re-imaged, the activation will be lost. In either case you can install and  start using the Adobe product on your new computer, which will automatically detect  the problem if you already had two computers activated. The activation process  will guide you through the new activation, even if the prior computer is no  longer available.
    However the activation process isn't guiding me at all! I cant use this software now and nothing in the docs gives any indication how to fix this.
    Thanks

  • How to reuse standard Activity subcomponents - Appointments, Tasks, Phone Calls and Emails within a custom work center?

    Requirement : We have a requirement to reuse the standard Activity subcomponents Appointments, Tasks, Phone Calls and Emails within a custom work centre. The requirement is to leverage and copy all sub functionalities Appointments, Tasks, Phone Calls and Emails available within the standard activity work center. This feature is available within Accounts, Opportunities, Leads etc. (Refer screenshot: Std_Act_Screen.jpg)
    We are unable to consume/embed the standard Activity (Work center) sub components Appointments, Tasks, Phone Calls and Emails within the custom work center. This is because of backend consistency check violation UI designer error message displayed. (Refer screenshot:Error while consuming standard activities.jpg)
    Ø  Open Question:
    a.      Is there a limitation to consume/embed the standard Activity (Work center) subcomponents Appointments, Tasks, Phone Calls and Emails within a custom work center?  We have noticed that this standard Activity Work center subcomponents Appointments, Tasks, Phone Calls and Emails has been repeatedly reused within the application in Account, Opportunity, Sales lead, Lead, Sales Quote Objects.
    b.      Is there an alternative way in which we can call [Through API etc..] the standard Activity Work center subcomponents Appointments, Tasks, Phone Calls and Emails?
    We need your guidance to overcome the error to enable the reuse of the standard Activity Work center sub-components Appointments, Tasks, Phone Calls and Emails within our custom work center or suggest a suitable workaround on how this can be achieved.
