Hello,

 

So i bought a Adobe Photoshop & Premier Elements 2020 pack, and i have a code for each software.

Now come the dumb question, are those codes link to my account or to the computer ?

i.e. i expect to change my computer at the end of august, will i need to buy it again or i'll just have to download it again and log in when i'll be using it ?

 

Sorry if it's dumb but i dont want to do any mistakes here
Thanks for your help 🙂

The serial numbers are linked to your software license. 

You can install & activate software on up to 2 computers.  But you may use only one machine at a time.

Im trying to license Photoshop elements in a second computer and have error saying when trying to activate the serial that Im not connect, but actually Im connected. Not problem with the first computer. And yes, the program is legal, was bought at Best Buy. So, very concern... can you help?

Check your firewall and or AV and or Internet security software settings to allow the Adobe registration, serial number check, to go through.

 

It may also help to Reboot all your equipment.

Both kind of.

To your Adobe ID, if you actually Register, and to your computer. BUT that does not mean you can't remove it from your current computer and install them on a new computer.

 

Look in the Help menu of each program for a link to Deactivate the software. Also Google Deactivate PS Elements.
