Can I use my Creative Cloud subscription on multiple devices?

Question

I have two computers - an iMac 2012 desktop and a Macbook Pro 2011 laptop both with OS X Yosemite operating systems. I had cancelled my subscription a few years ago and am thinking about purchasing a new subscription. Would I be able to use the same subscription on both of my computers and will my operating systems support the Adobe programs? I mostly will be using InDesign and Photoshop. Before I purchase a new subscription I need to know if I will have to upgrade my computers first and if I will be able to access the same subscription and programs on both computers. Any advice is most welcome! Thanks.

and if I will be able to access the same subscription and programs on both computers.

Yes, definitely, with a few caveats:

You can install the software on as many computers as you like. Mac or PC does not matter.
You can activate the software (using the same Adobe ID) for use on a maximum of two computers at any one time
You can only use one of the two activated versions at a time
You can toggle activations between computers using Help > Sign In / Sign Out at any time
