Standard Adobe CC license allow to install apps on tow device but allow to use only one at the time. What about k-12 Device License or Device Shared License? Can one license be installed on two PCs if students will use only one at the time?

    Hey Joe,

     

    This doesn't apply to Individual licenses, which is the standard plan that most people buy from Adobe.

     

    In other words, all Creative Cloud for Individuals plans are tied to your Adobe ID, meaning it's no problem moving the software between machines.

     

    So you should be able to change your computer at any time, and don't have to wait until you get your new one.

    Device licenses and shared device licenses are special licenses that cannot be used by the general public.
    In most cases, it will be used as a user license.
    (Individual license must be user license)

    Device-based licenses are tied to the machine. So each machine that you activate on will consume one license.
