When you say 2 active devices, is that computer on or program signed into?

'Signing In'  IS  'Activating'.  (I believe that the words "Sign In" are misleading.)

You will find some answers in other links here-

As best I understand the current 'rules'-

If talking about the 'Photography Plan' - and One subscription: you can-

Install the Apps on any number of devices (PCs, Macs, Mobile phones, ipads)

 

Computers- PCs (Windows), Macs (macOS):

Activate (ie. Sign in) on a maximum TWO computers.

Legally only use ONE computer at any one time.

 

Mobile phones iPhone Android, ipads, etc:

Activate (ie. Sign in) on any number of Mobile devices. ie. You can use an iPhone, an iPad, and Lr-[Desktop v5.1] at any one time.

If  you are using Lightroom 6, with serial number activation there is no sync feature with mobile devices.

Lightroom the subscription version i.e. Lr CC 2015 then syncing is possible.
