    You will just need to install the Adobe Creative Cloud app onto your new laptop and install Audition from there. It may tell you that you have too many installations of Audition and send you to your account to Deactivate one of them. If it doesn't then click on Manage My Account from one of the working Audition's Help menu. Log in to your account. Under Plans and Products click on Manage Plan. On that page you can then Deactivate the installation on one of your computers so that you can install Audition onto your laptop. You can still leave Audition installed but deactivated so that you can re-activate it and swap back any time later.

    Hi ryclark. I do not have an Adobe Creative Cloud account because I don't want any subscriptions.  WIll the answer  you posted on April 10  2018, about putting Adobe Audition to a different computer, still work for me? I am getting a brand new dell laptop this week and want to put my Adobe Audition 3.0 that I bought outright on this new computer.  Thanks for any help. Kevin Boucher

    You certainly can install Audition3 on a new machine, but it will have to be the version that was made freely available until the legal dept. forced it's removal from the Adobe server some years ago- your original release version won't authenticate because the server for that failed completely decades ago (literally). There are no other options available, I'm afraid.

     

    And I should perhaps add that unfortunately, ryclark passed away six years ago.
