I have a laptop that is both a personal and work computer. I have the photography cc plan tied to my personal email address I use. My job wants me to use a cc account they pay for tied to my work email address. The work account is for using InDesign. Is it possible to be signed into both accounts on the same computer at one time? If this is not possible, am I safe to sign out from one account then sign into the other and go back and forth between personal and work related applications?

Really? I have Lightroom on a personal account and Acrobat on a work account and you're telling me I have to logout and login every time I switch between them? Somehow all other major tech companies have figured this out right? (I have four Google accounts and two MS accounts and it's a non-issue to switch). Really annoying limitation!

I and countless others are in the same boat.
I have work and home accounts and want to be able to easily access everything I have paid for.
It is NOT practical to be switching back and forth between accounts when jumping from one application to another all day long.
Come on Adobe this surely isn't a tough problem to solve. Everyone in this situation are loyal customers who use your products at work and also pay out of their own porckets for further access at home. Since we all work from home these days it is clear to see how this situation has arrisen. Please make this possible quickly.

I also want this feature. Have Acrobat through work and Photoshop paid for personally, but have to sign in/out to use each. What a pain.

it's hard to conceive how you could be signed into two different accounts concurrently and not cause problems.

It's super-simple, easy-peasy with the Microsoft Office suite. I am signed into work and multiple personal accounts at a time. It automatically activates the licenses for each account and gives me access to all the files (Recents, cloud storage, etc.) at the same time as well.
For someone who wants a clear segregation between work and home, then they can use separate computers, use separate Windows user accounts on the same computer, or log on/off each time they want to switch users.
But I hate the rigamarole of login/logout and would much rather be logged into two accounts at once and have everything merged.
Obviously from my home computer, I cannot access certain recent Excel files that are stored on company servers which aren't accessible from home. But I ignore those work files anyway when I'm at home.

A good solution is to use 2 different Windows (or Mac) accounts, each using a different Adobe account. A bit cumbersome but it works.

You can also use a virtual machine (if you have the hardware for it) and with some apps you can use an incognito browser window to run the web version of the app on another account.
I agree, this is a feature users have been requesting for YEARS and it seems Adobe has no intrest in implamenting it.
