Anyone keen to help out a complete novice?

Hello all,

I've just purchased the basic Adobe package with Photoshop. It's a requirement for a new freelance job - otherwise I've always been on the copy end of things, only using InDesign and Photoshop for copy editing.

My question is this: I've downloaded Photoshop onto my laptop, but is there a way to access it from my desktop machine (an HP, nothing fancy)? I've managed to do it with the MS package I bought a few years ago, so I figured there has to be a way to do it with Photoshop.

Hope someone can help me out.

Thanks!

J

The short answer is yes! You use the Creative Cloud Desktop app to install on your other machine, (just sign in with your Adobe ID), you are allowed to do this as long as you do not run both applications at the same time, in other words you cannot run Photoshop on both computers at once, but I think that's an unlikely scenario for you anyway.

Hope that helps.

I've moved your question to the Photoshop for Beginners forum

You would probably benefit from some training, Classroom in a Book is good, as are the Quick-start guides. The Lynda.com online video tutorials are excellent (you can get a 10-day free trial) And you can, of course, ask specific questions on this friendly forum.
