I just bought Photoshop CS3 Extended, and want to install it on all of my computers. Would anybody happen to know if there is a limit on how many times it can be installed?

The only reason I ask, is because I've run into that problem with programs like Norton Systemworks. You only get so many installs, then you have to go out and buy the software again.

Hi otsegonaut,

You can install and activate on 2 computers (a desktop and a laptop for example) but you can only use 1 at a time.

Hope this helps

Geez, all that money for only two installs? Yikes! I guess I'll save the 2nd in case of a crash ::fingers crossed::

Thanks for the info Matt.

No probs, although I must say that it's 2 activations, so if you have a crash and need to reinstall you can call up Adobe tech support and they'll talk you through the process without having to worry about the other entitled activation, so if you have a copy activated on your desktop as well as your laptop there won't be a problem.
