InDesign 2021 and Carbon Copy Cloner

[bernardd62912634]

Hello, it's the first time I've make a copy of my Os + all the professional apps (like Abode suite) with Carbon Copy Cloner on a dock (USB 2) + internal DD. I want to have the possibility belonging working, even my iMac is broken, one day.
When I test the DD, the copy can run but Indesign asked for a validation, the others not.
How can I do, please ?

Are you starting up from the cloned volume? Startup with the option key pressed to get a list of bootable volumes.

Other than by literally creating a clone of your disk drive (or even the system volume) which you can restore to another disk, you can't simply copy Adobe applications from one system to another. You need to install the applications again via the installers.
