Offline Use

Question

I just signed up for the Adobe applications and downloaded the ones I used most over the years. I just want to confirm, I can only use Photoshop, Illustrator and Dreamweaver when I have access to the internet? Even though I downloaded something, I didn't actually download working software? Is that right?

I don't always have access to broadband. What is the use of Photoshop, for instance, in terms of data—if I use me cell phone as a hot spot.

you downloaded the working software onto your computer. ie, you're not using any of those apps online.

to use offline though, it's safest to open the apps while online and then minimize them. when offline, opening the minimized apps won't trigger a sign-in issue that's possible when opening a closed app.
