Hello,

I would like to know if I can install the creative cloud as detailed below:
 
  1. on my desktop --> the creative cloud, Lightroom classic and Photoshop
  2. on my first laptop --> the creative cloud and ONLY Lightroom classic
  3. on my second laptop --> the creative cloud and ONLY Photoshop

 

 
Please can you tell me if I can install software like this without having any problem?

Thanks for the support

yes, you can install and use on 3 pcs.  if you use on pc1 and pc2 and then open a cc app on pc3, you will be prompted to sign out from pc1 or pc2.  once you select one of them, your apps will open on pc3.

 

and if you buy 3 macs, you can install on them too and use your cc subscription on all 6 of your computers.  (but you can't share with anyone else.)

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) of your cc subscription programs. the only (insignificant for internet connected computers) limitation is that you can sign-in (and therefore start your adobe programs) on, at most, two computers at any one time.  

 

because you can sign out from either (or both) signed-in computers using a 3rd computer, this could not (imo) be easier.

Thank you for the quick reply. So I can install it on all my three PC but I can use only 2 at the same time (and it is ok for me).

 

Thank you
