Correct answer kglad

you're allowed two concurrent installations and activations so you don't need to deactivate and uninstall.

however, if you're not going to use acrobat on your other computer, you may want to preserve that 2nd install/activation.

in any case, make sure you deactivate (help>deactivate or sign out) before uninstalling.

Thanks, I was getting an error trying to install on the second PC (Donated Software has different rules?) but when I deactivated from the first the error went away and the install was successful. I never saw the deactivate option before.
