Photoshop CS6 on multiple computers
I received Photoshop CS6 for Christmas - can I load it on both my desktop and laptop
Yes, you can install and activate on a maximum of two computers provided they're both the same platform. i.e. 2 x Windows or 2 x Mac OSX.
You cannot install one copy on a Windows computer and one copy on a Mac OSX computer unless you're a Creative Cloud member.

Hi, I activated my CS6 in 2012 under my student licence and still using it. I've heard that you can't run CS6 on multiple computers. How do I transfer it from one computer to another as I am switching computers?
Hi,
first, I'm not Adobe's "slave" as you might to accuse me. Most of the posters here are users like me.
I only can repeat that what I found in Adobe's help sites, as I wrote above. You are free to figure out the "real" truth and - the best would be - you may contact Adobe directly, here are - I'm sure you know them - the links I would use: http://helpx.adobe.com/support.html and http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html.

Problems with Photoshop CS6 Recognizing Multiple Graphics Cards
Hi,
I have a quad monitor setup with two graphics cards with the latest drivers downloaded today and installed directly off of the manufacturer's websites:
1) AMD Radeon R9 200 Series 4GB GDDR5
2) NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 1GB GDDR5
I have Photoshop CS6 64-bit (along with the rest of the Adobe Design and Web Premium) installed on my computer - which I uninstalled and reinstalled today also - and it's claiming that it has detected an error with my display driver. The Graphics Processor Settings box in Preferences is greyed out, and I've used the shift+ctrl+alt to reset preferences and check again to no avail. I've also set both of my graphics cards to turn on OpenGL Triple Buffering and to let the 3D application decide the image settings. Here's my system info, where you can see that the GPU sniffer crashed and that no video card is detected:

Please help!Yes Adobe states if you use more then one GPU adapter they should be the same else Photoshop may have problems. Photoshop CC and CC 2014 GPU FAQ
Are you using more than one video card?
Multiple video adapters can cause problems with GPU-accelerated or enabled features in Photoshop. It's best to connect two (or more) monitors into one video adapter. If you have to use more than one video adapter, make sure that they are the same make and model.
Otherwise, crashes and other problems can occur in Photoshop.
Note: Using more than one video adapter does not enhance Photoshop's performance. -
Installing Photoshop CS6 on Three Computers
Hi, I have three computers, One Desktop as my main production machine, one 17" Laptop as my Studio Shooting machine and a 15" as my travel machine. I would like to install Photoshop CS6 all on three machines but using only one at a time. At the moment, the Activation process does not allow me to do this.
I would very much appreciate some help on this.
Many thanks
EdYou can only Activate Photoshop on 2 computers at any one time, if you need to install on a 3rd PC you will need to Deactivate it on one of the other PC's

Any help? Is really frustrating and Im loosing tons of data and work.
Thank youAdobe applications really like residing on your C: drive. I've never understood why Adobe even allows you to change the install location. That brings you nothing but guaranteed grief.

Can I install Photoshop CS6 to two computers?
I just purchased and installed Photoshop CS6 on my Windows laptop which had CS4 extended. Can I also install this Photoshop CS6 on my Mac which has CS3 extended?
not unless you have a Creative Cloud membership, which transcends platform.
Noel,
Once again, you have taught me something, regarding the transcending of platforms with the Creative Cloud. As I have no interest, at least yet, in the Creative Cloud, I have not done my due diligence.
Thank you,

Working with adobe premiere cs6 on multiple computers
Hello,
I work in a school and we are currently using premiere cs6. We have a major issue with working on multiple machines that I can't seem to find a solution for online. The problem exists with the media cache. I understand that when opening a very large project for the first time, it will take 20-30 minutes to conform all of the audio and cache all of the mpg files. unfortunately, when working on muliple machines, this can be a bit excessive. Everytime the project is opened on a new machine it takes 20-30 minutes to open the project again. We thought that if we moved the media cache and database folders with us, from machine to machine, that it wouldnot have to cache and conform everything again, but that doesn't seem to be working. Even with all of the cache folders copied from the other machine over to the new one, it still goes through the tedious process of conforming and caching when it is opened on a new computer. How does someone use the software on mulitple machines with out having to go through this excessively long process of opening the project??Working on multiple machines is a pretty common workflow. For example, if I have an assistant editor and they are pulling selects and cutting small scenes on their computer, saving premiere project files etc., then they bring the project over to my house (editor) and we need to open up the projects we would have to wait 30 minutes for the project to load. This is a big problem. Also, I work in a school. So we have a lab of 25 computers equipped with Premiere. If a student stores their 45 min movie on their external hard drive, and they come into the lab the next day, they might have to use a different computer if someone is on the one they used the day before. Then, when they open their project, they will have to wait 30 minutes to load the project. I've seen and heard about this issue from many editors. Most of them chose AVID when they migrated away from FCP because of this issue. It is very practical that with a large project with multiple editors, especially with a sequence duration of over 30 minutes, for the project to have to be moved to multiple machines and editors, this is common in the industry. Adobe Anywhere does address this issue, but for right now it is very frustrating to work on large projects with Premiere if we have to open the projects on multiple machines. I feel that this problem is really keeping Premiere from being the best it can be, I've been using Premiere for 10 years and I am a strong advocate for the software. I'm totally confused by this issue coming up now, when Adobe is striving to fill the void of the professional video editing market that was left open when apple released iMovie Pro.

Updating to cs6 on multiple computers.
I recently purchased a new mac laptop, and successfully upgraded photoshop cs4 to cs6 on the machine. I still have cs4 running on my old mac desktop, and it seems from looking at your policies, that I can upgrade to cs6 on the desktop under the same purchase. Is this so? and if so, how do I go about downloading the software for the second time onto the old desktop?
Yes, you can. Simply download it again on the machine. But seriously consider simply making a backup on a USB stick so you don't have to download over and over again every tiem you need to reinstall.

I need to know if I can run Photoshop on my laptop and a desktop, or if I could run it on my computer and my wife could also run it on her computer. Or would we have to have multiple subscriptions.
Hi Jdh2015,
With a single subscription, you can install Photoshop on 2 machines, provided you are not using them simultaneously.
Thank you for posting on Adobe Forums. -
Adobe Photoshop 6.0 Multiple Computers
I own Adobe Photoshop 6.0 because it came with my Dell desktop when it was purchased about 4-5 years ago. I really enjoy using the progam and I would like to continue using it more. I don't use my desktop much anymore and was wondering if there was a way that I can get the program on my laptop. Is there anything I can do about this or am I stuck and not going to be able to use photoshop anymore? I didn't find any information on this so any help would be great.
