Wie wäre es, wenn jetzt, wo viele zuhause arbeiten, Abobe mal wenigstens 3 statt 2 Geräteaktivierungen zuliesse?

 

Danke!

    Why?

    Even if they did that would not change the fact that only ONE device is supposed to be used at any ONE TIME and all devices are only to be used by the same user that purchased the subscription.

     

    If you want multiple users to use the same Adobe programs on multiple devices at the same time then you need a Team or Enterprise account.

      I understand that more licences are required for more users. My point is more devices, not more users.

      I regularly use three devices, at least now while I'm mostly working from home, sometimes in the office. So I have to keep switching devices on and off which is a nuisance. 

      Probably not unusual nowadays, that people have a PC in the office, one at home, plus a laptop.

      Adobe wouldn't lose a penny letting us keep three devices active.

      Oh, sorry, I misunderstood. So let me explain again, so we get on the same page:

       

      1. I can install on any number of devices - ok, no problem

      2. I can activate on only two devices at a time - NOT ok, problem

       

      I have gone through the deactivation/activation process for years and it is a PAIN!

      Now I have to jump through that hoop even more often, because I need to switch devices more often. Meaning greater pain - and for what purpose? 

       

      That I have the possibility to switch activation does not solve the problem,

      because the problem is that I have to do it at all.

       

      This is a health crisis, right, and the health crisis makes this old problem worse. And I just hope that Adobe cares and helps by providing just a small relieve, just for a short while. Costing them nothing. Show that you actually care about your customers and don't deny their problems.

      Why?

      How many computers can you operate at the same time?

      Last time I checked I can only type on and work the mouse on one computer at a time. Even IF I have 2 different computers sitting on my desk. I can only work on one at any One Time.

      You say Devices. I am talking about COMPUTERS. If you mean Mobile Devices, phones pads whatever, then you can have IIRC 5 of those activated at a time. So that is 7 devices.

       

      And honestly what does the health crisis have to do with Adobe only allowing a Single User Subscription activating only 2 computer at any one time.

       

      That makes no sense at all unless you plan on having Multiple Users use the different computers you have activated.

       

      IMHO this is what you are really asking about and want to achieve.
