    -Windows or Mac does not matter... 2 on the same operating system, or 1 on each

    -Two activations on one account MAY NOT be in use at the same time (note in the above license link)

    -An individual account is for one person and may not be shared with anyone else

    with proper activations/deactivations and compatible os'es, you can install and activate cs5, cs5.5, cs6 an unlimited number of times.
