Adobe, please raise a floating license scheme
I write this post because the current authorisation system for creative cloud is problematic for me and probably for others in my situation. I hope that, following this post, Adobe will consider more flexible options for the software CC license.
I've been using Adobe products for over 20 years and I have invested a lot of time perfecting my skills and Evangelical zeal in promoting Adobe products. At this point, I would say I am an expert on many of your pieces of software.
When CC was announced, I went with the new regime to ensure the stability of your income by making your sales more predictable. However, for me this has been created by a small studio running, heavy loads. To be precise, I am an Illustrator/animator solo and as such, I run a lot of software 3D and special effects that often require the power of multiple machines to render images or calculate simulations of complex effects. I use four, three desktop machines and laptop computers. In my work, I am constantly bounce autour between three machines that often are buzzing away on their own, rendering frames or calculation of flows of fluids, etc. (my ghost employees), when you are free I will propose this one for creative work, often using one or more of your products (my go - for Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator products each with a gazillion plugins) , First, After Effects, and InDesign. This is where the authorisation scheme that currently exists is problematic: I feel constantly activate and disable machines so I can switch between them. To say the least, it is a royal pain.
What I would say to the creations in small studios like mine, it's that we are allowed to add more machines to the pool under license. In other words, I don't mean to run creative software cloud simultaneously on several machines, but have rather more machines available to select when you run an application. Other software I use has what is called a floating license option, but allows me to use one copy of the software at the same time on a single machine, you s to me which machine is used. Such a scenario makes much more sense for smaller studios like mine, and I don't know that I'm not alone to deal with this problem. I realize that if extrapolate you what I mean too far, things could get out of control, and it might deform your turnover, so it would make sense to charge a top small-supplement to the licensee to increase the number of machines available - perhaps with an upper limit of the machines also licensed as well.
Currently, my only option is to double my monthly subscription to $100 spending, which is $ 600 per year just to have greater convenience, (oh and a second Adobe ID with another email address just to make things more complicated.)
Please seriously consider changing your strategies in this regard, since it is a real thorn in my (and I'm sure as the other) side.
Please you feather the suggestion here: feature request/Bug Report Form
Thanks for your suggestions, we will do the team know about it.

I have a subscription to creative cloud (comprehensive plan), and the billing date is the 14th of each month . I received on September 13, a letter dated September 9 of Egypt (my credit card issuer) of Citibank informing me that they took the decision to stop all their activities of retail banking in Egypt. I applied for a new card with NBE and I contacted Adobe in Bangalore in India (serving the Middle East region) and informed them of this situation that was out of my hands, and I asked them for a solution. Their question was when I would receive my credit card, I informed them that I need 3 weeks according to the procedures of the Bank, therefore, the Adobe representative informed me that Adobe will give me a grace period to update the credit card and I can continue with my subscription.
Unfortunately two weeks later, I found that my account has been disabled and when I contacted the Bangalore team they me transferred to each other for several times (to connect with 6 names) and in the end, they admitted that they made a mistake, but the solution is to buy a new subscription for Egp. 345/month instead of the amount of 205/month that I used to pay! When I asked them why? They said that the offer that I used when I subscribed the first time is not more valid! (it was a reduced rate because of my previous purchase a perpetual license), so I had to express my opposition because it wasn't my fault, and that they should keep their word for me, by the way, I don't have any notice of them they will be disables my account after only two weeks.
As a result, they promised to escalate the case to their team and score my case as first priority so that their team responds within 24 hours. Unfortunately, that didn't happen and so far I do not have an answer. I have suffered much chatting for hours with these people without successful outcome. I have dealt with many Adobe staff levels in the United States. and I can truly say that they are in heaven and these people in this part of the world are in hiding. They have no respect for their words, they bring an extreme information contradicted by one a unique cat and they show that no care even if their attitude or info provided shows no skill at all. They caused me a lot of inconvenience and loss of business. What I have said here is documented with transcripts and e-mails sent to me.

How will I know if my Adobe Cs6 Design Web Premium license is for one or two computers. I can´t get any online support
Your license allows you to have the software enabled on both machines at any time. If you need to have on another you would need to disable one of the two machines before you activate the new installation.

I have a subscription Adobe CC and then Adobe CS6 with a separate license. In addition, I also have a separate license for the stand-alone Adobe Lightroom version. These were installed on separate computers, however no opf the stand-alone version will work now that I get a box for Creative cloud telling me that I have the software on two computers and I have to disconnect from the other computer. How can I fix so that I mustn't keep disconnection in order to work on my laptop, etc. ? I have a subscription to the program and three separate license for each other. When he told me to update the program he changed everything to CC, which I did not intend to do.

Reports of ventilation are grayed out despite being member of more Adobe, please help
Reports of ventilation are grayed out despite being member of more Adobe, please help. Don't know how to access or why they are greyed out both in the project and authorizing sections.
Yes that's correct. If the project has been drafted by a story only (free) account holder and then shared with you, you will not be able to access the functions of production. You need create the project to access these features. Unlike those with which share you your project must have Story more to access these features of production. Are they only (free) story, then it's a no-go. Sorry Ryan, I assumed that you were the author.

I had a lot of difficulties recently after the installation of the CC 2105 - which I didn't.
I had to darn well all remove, then reinstall and all my settings were lost - despite specifying that I needed.
I have quoted me a page that does not give me the correct information on the CS6 restoration.
Currently, the acrobat program I have is total xxxx and has been for weeks.
I don't have time to continue to try to do things to work as changes to adobe.
Today I planned some time to export a bunch of files with Bridge, however, and here, fuction of export is no longer available in the version I have--well, it's a great way of really & & & & & someone immediately.
What I would like is a simple link to a Web page that allows me to re-download apps CS6. Please don't tell me that these are available in previous via CC versions because they are not.
I don't want the last acrobat and I want to be able to use the bridge in the way I want - I don't want to use photoshop for this purpose.
Can someone from adobe please just give me a link to download the CS6 apps, especially to fill, so that I can use the software that I pay correctly.

Thank you and my apologies for the tone.
