I'm currently having LR V6 which I may run on 2 PCs concurrently. I'm considering to make the move to the new options that include LR CC, Photoshop and LR Classic and want to know how many PCs I may run with LR Classic & Photoshop concurrently ?
Thank you

Seems that you aren't readin my append carefully ...Having to sign-out on a PC that is at home in order to sign-on to the laptop you carried with when travelling isn't that easy .... since travelling implies not being at home...


you don't understand.  cc doesn't work the same as perpetually licensed adobe products.

you can sign out of your other 2 computers using the 3rd computer.  ie, if you arrive at the airport with your laptop and are unable to sign in because your office and home computers are signed-in, no problem.  you can sign out of the home and office computers using your laptop at the airport (or another country).  i do it frequently and i never remember to sign out before leaving.  frankly, there's no need to remember because it's so easy to sign out/in (as long as you have an internet connection).

you can install the cc desktop app from here https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud  on as many computers as you own and use it to install all (or some, if you want) your cc subscriptions.  the only (insignificant for internet connect computers) limitation is that you can sign-in (and therefore start your adobe programs) on, at most, two computers at any one time.

So nothing changed really ... it is the same poor limitation of two PCs running LR at any given time.
It is REALLY annoying having to logoff on one computer in order to be able to use LR on another - in particular when traveling with one laptop not normally being used for editing photos and two other laptops at home both are signed in to Adobe.
One of the reasons to migrate to the new environment just disappeared.
