November 2019: Adobe Updates Confusing

Adobe November 2019 Updates Confusing in your Creative Cloud

First you tell me that there are two updates for Photoshop. One is "Photoshop" and the other is Photoshop 20.0.6.

 

I have the subscription plan for desktop. I thought my "Photoshop" was "CC".

Both "Photoshop" choices say they are Installed.

Which "Photoshop" do I update? Better yet, which "Photoshop" do I HAVE? I only want Photoshop CC.

 

Secondly, I see there is an update for Lightroom Classic. I see that is in my Installed section. But, I thought the name was "Lightroom Classic CC". Did you change the name?

 

Sidebar: Adobe CC Desktop program also blocks use of Lightroom on a regular basis stating that "Lightroom is open on another computer". At the time we were using two computers and our third lightroom one was Logged Out. We are supposed to get two uses. We have two laptops for my wife and I. And I have a desktop. I don't use my desktop and my laptop at the same time and make sure one of them is Logged Out. The CC Desktop program is Aggravating.

You get a license for ONE person to use the software on ONE computer at a time.

It can be ACTIVATED on TWO computers.

It can be installed, but not activated on more computers.

 

You seem to indicate you are using it on two computers at the same time, and also that two people might be using it...

they're the same updates (v21.0.0). the only difference might be that if you update ps v 20.0.6 you might not have the option to keep it (v 20.0.6) on your computer.  if you update ps, you'll be given the option to keep the older (v 20.0.6) version.

 

but i'm not sure about that.  you could test and see.

Sorry kglad, but I am not clear on what I have. I subscribed to Adobe Creative Cloud Subscription.

I thought I had Photoshop CC and Lightroom Classic CC.

The listing on the Adobe CC Desktop app says "Photoshop" and "Lightroom Classic"

I am not interested in keeping any old software. Which ones do I choose to update?

thanks.
