Why can't I use Creative Cloud on multiple devices?

I wasn't told there was a limit on the number of devices I could use for Creative Cloud when I bought my subscription, and I need it to work on 7 computers. Is there a way I can expand my subscription?

My understanding is that you can use the Cloud on any device you want but only one at a time. Just as you can install the Creative Collections on as many computers as you wish but it can only be activated on two at a time but which is not really true since you can only use one of them at a time anyway.
I think the wording about this should change.
For insance I travel and may or may not wish to lug a laptop with me. It is my understanding that I can when raveling log into the CC download m apps and use them on any computer capable of running the apps and work away, But since I am logged in at a different location on a different device it will only work on that device.
And this is the way it shoulkd work because say you travel and your laptop is lost or stolen then you should be able to still use your apps and also stop them from working on the lost computer by logging in somewhere else.
This is the way Iunderstand the advantages of the Cloud. It is designed to be flexible and not inhibiting.
Now on the other had if I ahsd an assistant that I want to use these apps then it makes sense to purchase a license for them as well.
It is one license for one user as it should be but that user can access it where ever they need it.
That is my understanding.

  • Using Creative Cloud across multiple devices? (individual use)

    When signing up to Creative Cloud, how many devices does this allow for personal desktop use? I'm wanting the software for both my laptop and iMac (Plans for Individuals / Existing CS Customer / Complete at £27.34 a month).
    Many thanks, Sarah

    Found it:
    You can install and activate CC desktop applications on two computers, regardless of operating systems, for the individual associated with the CC membership...

  • Can I use Creative Cloud on multiple Macs?

    I am work in a company where we are using Creative Cloud for teams. Recently I've been doing some work from home, but on CS6. Is it possible to use CC on my Mac at home using the same Adobe Login details? Do I need to register with Adobe with different Login details in order to purchase CC from Adobe?

  • Why can't I use iBooks Text Books across devices?

    iBooks 2 is incredible with its introduction of Text Books, as is the ability for anyone with a Mac to start developing texts via iBooks Author.  This has revolutionary potential written all over it. 
    BUT, just one thing Apple: 
    Why in the last year have you pushed so hard to integrate/sync devices via the Cloud, only to introduce a phenomenal tool like the Text Books which can only be used on one device, the iPad, and almost blatantly makes no intention to talk to other devices?
    I have invested in the whole Apple product line.  I am invested in the ecosystem entirely.  Why can I not start reading/note taking from my Biology Text in class on my iPad, continue skimming it from where I left off on my iPhone while going home on the train, and finally pull up the Text Book in iBooks on my Macbook (complete with my notes from the day) where I ultimately want to cut and paste my noted text to be used as quotes in a term paper I am composing in Pages (and what if Pages even talked to iBooks and auto formatted a Bibliography based on the text I have dragged and dropped)?   As a student this scenario is not only very forseeable, but neccessary if I am to go over to a digital book format.
    Why is this not possible?  Should I honestly believe it is the result of poor planning, or rather a strategy to boost iPad sales by making Text Books explicit to the iPad?
    After all, in a parallel analogy to the above, Apple ecosystem users can currently:  start a film on their iPad, pick up where they left off on their iPhone, and then ultimately finish the film on their Mac or Apple TV.  I can even start a  normal book on my iPad and leave a bookmark, which I can later pick up on my iPhone. This is awesome and exemplifies the consideration and rigorous thought that I have grown to expect Apple to put in to their products.  The devices talk to each other and "it just works."  But is apple really allowing all of this, except when it comes to TEXTBOOKS, which is an educational tool? 
    If the digital Text Books are really going to do so much to revolutionize education, then shouldn't Text Books be available across ALL devices and to all people who ALREADY own iOS/OSX devices in order to reach its maximum potential for influencing a change in education? If these tools are really so revolutionary  and represent a paradigm shift, then they will speak for themselves and schools will naturally get on board and dole out the money for the class sets of iPads. 
    Please Apple, I switched over for a reason.  Mostly due to your philosophies and ability to make things that "just work".  Don't sell out here.   Not allowing Text Books to be accessed across devices does not have the markings of a "paradigm shift in the dark ages of education", but instead reeks of a slick marketing scam  by the most successful company in the world to pump tax money out of education budgets into the overflowing pockets of Apple.  Shame on you.  That is not giving to education, that is taking. 
    Make good and develop TextBooks to work across ALL iOS/OSX devices, please. 
    Respectfully,
    A teacher/student

  • Can I install the creative cloud on multiple machines but not use it or pay until activate it

    I would like to install the Creative Cloud software on several machines now but not use it or pay for it on all the machines until the person using that machines needs it then they can pay to activate it.  Is it okay to have the software installed on lots of machines but not activated?

    Hi There,
    If the software is installed on the machine and it is not activated, you would not be able to use it once the trial is expired after 30 days.
    Whenever, you wish to use it, you can buy it and can start using it.
    Thanks,

  • Why can't I download Creative Cloud apps?

    Hi
    I joined the Creative Cloud Photography Offer.
    I logged in.
    I can see the page Apps & Services.
    When I select Creative Cloud App it only opens the header to that page. No content displays. I cannot therefore download anything. Same with Lightroom or PS.
    I tried other pages, but Adobe home page, Learn Page, and Customer Service all say Safari can't connect to server.
    I can see these pages if I open Adobe website on my Windows laptop and iPad.
    I have reset Safari, turned off plug-ins, updated Flash Player and Java, reset Safari, but no luck.
    I have tried using Firefox and have the same issue. I still cannot connect with most of your website from my Mac, which is where I do all my photo editing.
    I am currently on my PC laptop, as my Mac cannot access the customer service chat or the forums.
    I have Mavericks installed on my Mac

    It turns out that Adobe is editing the Hosts file on the Mac, preventing those browsers from reaching adobe.com
    Locate the terminal app and run it.
    Open the hosts file by typing the following in the Terminal window and pressing return:
    sudo nano /private/etc/hosts
    Type your user password XXXXX prompted.
    If you see references to Adobe, that is what is preventing the connection.

  • Why can't I purchase Creative Cloud membership in Zambia?

    Hi,
    I'm a freelance Designer in Zambia, and I have recently downloaded the CC trial and a few of the programs as trials. Some of the trials are coming to an end and I really want to pay for the yearly membership, but everytime I try and according to the customer service chat guy, I cannot purchase in Zambia, because Adobe does not service Zambia... Fair enough but why let me download the trials then if I cannot continue to use them. Is there no way to fast track putting Zambia on the list or other payment options?
    Thanks

  • Can I still use Creative Cloud?

    I had issues trying to use the Adobe Download Manager with a Premiere Pro trial. I saw that an alternative way to download the program was to use direct download, which I did. I am wondering if I'll still be able to use a Creative Cloud Subscription after the trial expires because I chose the alternative download.

    I don't see why not.  It's the same software -- just downloaded via a different manager.

  • Why can't I install Creative Cloud on my second computer?

    I'm having trouble install Creative Cloud on my 2nd computer -- MacBook Pro. I download the app and clicked on the Installer, and when I initializing the installer, I get this message: Adobe Creative Cloud is needed to resolve this problem. However, it is missing or damaged. Please download and install a new copy of the Creative Cloud from "http:www.adobe.com/go/adobecreativecloudapp'. So I click on Get Creative Cloud and the downloading cycle begin again. Also, it asks for Adobe Application Manager. Does anyone have any solutions? Thanks.

    The CC has been activated twice, April 2013, July 2014, it needs to deactivated from one of the computer to install it on the second computer, it might be that accidentally, it has been activated twice.
    Activation & Deactivation Help
    In case the previous computer is not available to De-activate then you can choose to " De activate all" while installing & activating it now, it deactivate the previous one & activate this with one activation count remaining.

  • Using creative cloud on multiple computers

    Hi There,
    Basically I have a computer at home that I can use as a backup computer when I need to work from home and also to practice using the software. If I was to accidently leave open photoshop will it lock me out of my work computer even though I am not using it on my home computer?
    Would have to go back and exit all the software?
    Thanks
