How to correctly transfer CC Desktop to my new Mac and keep all plugins etc.

Hi there,

I am about to purchase a new Mac and I want to transfer all aspects of my Creative Cloud Desktop application and the Adobe apps along with all plugins and scripts.

I understand that I must sign out of the CC Desktop application before trying to install on the new Mac. But how do I make sure I retain all my Apps and their respective plugins and scripts?

Please, can someone provide detailed step by step instructions to follow to ensure a successful transfer?

You do not have to sign out of anything to install on a new machine.  You can install on as many machines as you like.  Of all those machines you can only have two signed in for use.  Of those two machines you can only be using the subscription on one at a time.

Adobe applications need to be installed - transferring between machines does not work.  as a result, chances are all plug-ins have to be installed as well.

Thanks for your response Ned, however, I would be using the Migration Assitant to transfer Apps, Docs etc., across from one machine to another. This does not allow for picking and choosing which apps are transferred, its all or nothing!

So, are you, therefore, saying I really need to uninstall all Adobe apps and Desktop Creative Cloud application before I do my migration? Otherwise, it WILL attempt to migrate the apps from the other machine to my new one.
