Question

We currently run 2 Imacs using Creative Suite 5.5 at the same time. (1 licence on 2 macs) and have done so with CS4 and CS5 and now CS5.5.

We want to keep that licence going as is and are contemplating subscribing to another licence for Creative Cloud. So with this new licence agreement will it allow me to run on the 1 licence:  2 x macbookpros and 1 x Ipad only at the same time?? or can I use 2 x Ipads??

regards

Rod

If you are upgrading your 5.5 to creative cloud and take the discount, then the answer would be no, as the license is being transferred to creative cloud. on the other hand, if you purchase creative cloud outright, at $50 per month, then you can keep your current installs.

Yeah want to keep the current 5.5 on 2 imacs as is. It works fine for all the typesetting those machines and operators do.

I want to use the 2 macbookpros we have here for creative clouds software. (buy a new licence via subscription) which we will purchase.

With that new licence can I run 2 work stations on the one licence??? like I do with cs5.5.

Can I run an Ipad on each macbookpro or only one Ipad on the one licence??

regards

Ok that helps, thanks Jeff. I've got a number to ring for the second Id subscription etc and the sales people will help as usual with the second subscription.

I just read through this thread. Licensing for upgrades in relation to Creative Cloud is similiar as upgrades for other products. You still own the prior version and can still use it, however, you must it on the same two computers the the product you are upgrading from and you can't sell the previous version (version you are upgrading from).

Also, you can't run standard desktop products on an iPad, only apps that were designed to run on the tablet like the touch apps. The number of apps that can run the touch apps is different than desktop apps, like Jeff describes, this is a limit set by Apple.
