Now on a "Team" Subscription but am still being told I can sign into only (2) computers with my ID

I just added a PC That solely drives a laser cutter, so now I rotate between three worksatations in my studio that use different Adobe CC apps. It is only me here, no other users. I upgraded my license to a "team" subscription so I could stop the annoyance of having to continually log out of one machine as I went to use another.

 

However-- I am still getting this "must log out befoe you can access" error. Must I set up a second user ID/email (even though it is only me here,) to make this stop? 

 

Thank you very much.

    Hi,

     

    Thank you for posting your query here.

     

    I would like to inform you that Adobe allows you to install your Creative Cloud apps on more than one computer, activate (sign-in) on two, but use them on only one computer at a time using one email address.

     

    So, basically you pay per user. If you require using Creative Cloud products on two or more computers simultaneously than you may consider purchasing another license and assign on a different email address. And you will be billed for 2 Licenses. 

     

    Team Subscription does not mean that One User can work as a Team of users on multiple computers. The benefit of Teams Subscriptions is : you can Add ( Purchase) additional licenses for your Team members and manage all licenses as a Team Administrator. Moreover if one Team user leaves the organization or the Team, you have the option to remove his/ her license and re-assign the same License to another user. 

    Hope it helps. 

     

    Thank you.

    This does help, thank you. I eventually figured this out. Unfortunatley, the Adobe representative I spoke to on the phone to sign up for the plan did not understand this, and told me to sign up for teams, in error.  I have now corrected the problem.   Thanks.
