You do not do anything in the way of transferring between machines.  You install it using the installation files just like you did originally.

You can install on as many machines as you like.  Of all those machines you can only have two signed in for use.  Of those two machines you can only be using the subscription on one at a time.

Download/install the desktop application, sign in, install the subscription application(s).

After I had transferred CC to my new MAC, can I uninstall it from the old MAC ?? In this case can I still use it on another computer ?? As it stated that I can install it in 2 computers.

Please advice.

Thank you.

How do you retain any plugins or scripts you have installed previously if you have these on the other machine and have to install everything fresh on the new one?
