Hi,

I know Apple Appstore Version of Elemtents is a little "limited" in Usage (no Organizer), but is allowed to be installed and used on up to 5 family computers.

###

Bought Photoshop Elements 12 last year online at Adobe Online Store.

On how many computers am I allowed to install, activate and use this version ?

Is it possible to use/install the software on WIN and OSX the same time ?

Thanks for help, appreciate !

(Couldn't find answer in the help/license section)

    Hi Anderella,

    You can install and activate Photoshop Elements on two machines, however as per eula you should not use them simultaneously on both the machines.

    If you have a multi platform serial key which works on both Mac and Windows then you can install it on one Mac and one Windows machine.

    Regards,

    Hi Anand,

    thank you for helping !

    Do you also know how I can buy  (or upgrade) a multi platform license to photoshop elements 13 ?

    The adobe online order form only shows select platform: windows OR osx but not both.

    I doubt that there is multiplatform serial key available for Photoshop Elements 13.

    It is either for Windows or Mac.

    Elements is sold as a cross-platform license.

    Elements 13: Purchased upgrade but download is for Windows and I have a Mac
