Can anyone please tell me how many devices you can install Adobe Acrobat DC Standard and Pro onto with a single subscription?

I.e. will the subscription allow me to install it on both a desktop/laptop and tablet?

I am sure that this information is listed somewhere on the site, it is just impossible to find it.

Standard and Pro cannot be installed on the same computer, not at all.

Barring that, the licenses allow installation on two computers.

Subscription: Mac, or Windows, or one of each

Permanent license: You have to buy Mac or Windows version.

We can't make any suggestions as you don't tell us what bug it is. We have no access to the bug database. Millions are using it successfully under Windows 7, but there have certainly been a lot of bugs recently.

Please report the Windows 7 issue. Not familiar with it. License model has not changed.

Tx. I did report the issue but it is being ignored. Bug in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC v17.012.20093 fixed for Windows 10 Pro with v2017.012.20095 but it doesn't work in Windows 7 Pro. I use it in both.

The answer was made in 2015. Is Adobe Acrobat Pro DC still good for two machines with one subscription, and will it function properly on Win7 Pro and Win10 Pro? An Adobe Reader update recently broke Reader. An update fixed it on Win10 but Adobe Reader is still broken on Win7 Pro.

Adobe don't discuss their plans. They have shown little appetite up to now for porting their "big" apps like Photoshop or Acrobat to mobile devices, instead producing "lite" apps. Perhaps the direction can be seen from Acrobat Reader on iPad (only), where an Acrobat Pro SUBSCRIPTION unlocks some limited editing.

I would also like to know on how many devices you can install this.

I have a 1-user license, But this user has a PC, two tablets and a mobile phone.

Can I install the software on all 4 devices? Or do I only need to install it on the PC and use an app with a login to access my software on the other devices?

And what if I have a laptop and a desktop at home...? Could I install it on both devices?

    Acrobat does not run on phones or tablets (except Windows tablets).

    * If you have a subscription you can install it on 2 Macs, or 2 Windows computers, or one of each.

    * If you have a purchase, it is for Mac or Windows and you can install it on two Mac or two Windows, according to which you paid for.

        To clarify a bit, the two installs are for the purpose of use by one individual, not to provide Acrobat to two folks. This is covered in the license (generally found in the Acrobat folder) or at Adobe under EULA.
