Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a limit to the number of computers I can use Adobe on?
Actively-employed faculty and administrative staff are allowed to be logged into Adobe Creative Cloud on two computers at once. A classroom or lab computer using a Shared Device License will not count. If you install on 3 computers -- say, a home computer, a work laptop, and a work desktop -- you will be prompted to log out one session to get onto this third one.
If you see Access Denied when you try to use the new Adobe CC Desktop, contact theHelp Deskwith the following information and the appropriate staff will get back to you.
