I imagine it would be the same as you'd get on a LAN: the other user will be told they can't run the application because someone is already signed into it. "what happens if I'm using it on my laptop at a cafe & someone uses my desktop program? Will it auto sign out? or will i get reported? Auto shut down?" Hope that helps explain things a bit better. If you do play the De-Authorize, Re-Authorize game, keep in mind that the authorization process isn't instant, so allow time enough for it to process (though you can apparently call Adobe Support to clear up any re-authorization issues anyway).

Software As A Service): It's still very much installation locked the only new thing is that you can now have Work & Home installs, but note that this means you can Authorize the software in two places, but you still have to shut it down at one to run it on the other. I think Adobe's marketing department have caused a great deal of confusion by mis-appropriating the term "Cloud", as CC isn't a mobile or installation-free service (i.e.

Essentially it's no different to usual licensing in that respect (and I'd not recommend doing this, as you'll be sorry if you forget to de-authorize it of course). Can I just sit at his desk, log out of his account, log in into my own account, and now being able to open my projecst that are on my cloud to start discussing creating talks with him, while we are actually looking at my documents, opened in their respective apps on his desktop?įrom my understanding, you'll have to de-authorize one of your installations and re-authorize it at your client's location. If I walk to a friend's office, and he is a CC customer, and I am too.

Now, what about multiple customer on ONE machine?Ĭan you instal the Creative Clouds apps, and log in before to start to work? So you get your files. So it would really makes sens in 2012 that you can walk and sit at any computer and be able to use your rights to use the software.īut for what I understand reading this thread, the Creative Cloud works just the same way as traditional Creative Suit licencing : 2 computers only (not being used at the same time - obviously making sens). When you buy a softaware, you buy a service nothing physical. Running the apps according to the custumer using it, not according to the actual computer where it is installed, which would appear to be a model of the past.Īctually it would make sens.

I though it was going to be THE sollution for me. With the creative cloud being - well - in the cloud - I remember reading punch lines such as " everywhere" or "anywhere". And I was using a compagny softaware licence in the US (the compagny I work for). So far my personal softaware licences were installed on it, and on my laptop. Now I also have a workstation in France, where I come from.

I'm working in the US, on a Mac Pro, and I have also a Mac Book Pro with which I also work sometime.
