Hey all,

I have access to Acrobat (through my employer, as part of my job, with a paid subscription), installed on a typical Windows 11 PC. Does the license also include an installation on my M1 Mac? I have Acrobat installed on the Mac, but upon launching it, my only options are either "Buy Now" or "Start Free Trial." There doesn't seem to be an option to enter my Adobe ID/password and have that subscription apply.

Install update and subscribe to Acrobat

Yes, the Acrobat license includes two activations with the same Adobe ID and PW. One can be Mac and the other Windows. If you have an Enterprise or Teams plan at work, things may be different, as IT may disallow the second use. Some offices allow this; others do not. What did your IT department say when you asked them?

From their side, they say everything is fine and good to go for two activations. The problem I'm having is that there doesn't seem to be a way to activate Acrobat on the Mac with my subscription credentials -- the only options are "Buy" or "Free Trial" (which requires a credit card).
