My LR 1 was downloaded but my LR 2 upgrade is a disk. I have the LR1 S/N.

Close. LR2.7 is on the PC and iBook. LR3.x will be on the new computer
only. Seriously looking at trhe iMac 21.5"

I;ll continue to use the laptop for road trip downloads etc so LR2.7
will do if i need to do anything on the fly.

RE: LR and # of computers question

From: David J Brooks


I currently have LR2.7 on both my PC(dyeing) and my iBook.

If and when i upgrade the PC to what ever, and install LR3, will it be
ok with the three computers or will Adobe see i have installed it on
the third computer and halt my installation.??



Based on my experience with Photoshop upgrades while upgrading 
computers, probably not.


When I upgraded CS2 to CS3, I was setting up a new laptop. I called 
Adobe and asked if I had to install the upgrade on the same computer as 
the original installation, and their tech support told me I could 
install the upgrade on a new computer.


They told me that somewhere during the installation it would prompt for 
the original CS2 CD to confirm the upgrade. Alternatively, if you were 
upgrading from a downloaded version where you didn't have an original 
CD, you could enter the prior version's serial number.


I interpret that to mean you still only have each of the programs 
installed on two computers. You have LR2.7 on the old PC & iBook and LR3 
will be on the *new* PC & iBook.

By the terms of the EULA, you are legally constrained to be running
only two installations simultaneously. So far, Adobe has not
implemented the "activation" schema they use with Photoshop CSx and
other Creative Suite products for Lightroom, so you are able to
install it and be able to use it on as many systems as you want
without having to do the activation dance.
