Can I use the same serial number for mac and pc?

[riisar]

My problem is that my mac is falling apart and I don't know how long it's still working - can be hours or can be months. I'm not sure if my next computer is mac or PC, so I'd like to know if the same serial number can be used with both mac and PC? I have understod that I can delete the program from my old computer and then use the same serial number in my next computer (Is it working that way?). So if I now buy a lisence for mac, can I use the same lisence later with PC?

What Adobe product do you have, and what version is it?

[riisar]

At the moment I don't have any product, but I plan to buy one. Actually I'd like to buy Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Design Premium Mac English Student and Teacher Edition.

But does the lisence work with PC too?

[Jeri H]

The license will be platform specific, so you can use on Mac OS or Windows, but not both.

Thank you for your answer. So I can't buy mac lisence now and later use it with PC?

Riisar for retail copies of the software you would need to complete the process detailed in Order an Adobe product platform swap or language swap.

And note that if you purchase now and a new version comes out when you're ready to swap, you'll need to purchase an upgrade.
