Adobe Creative Suite For Mac
Are Adobe creative apps available without a subscription?
No, all the latest versions of Adobe creative apps are only available with a Creative Cloud month-to-month or annual plan.
Are all apps updates included in the subscription?
Yes, with Creative Cloud, you have access to all the latest updates and future releases the moment they're available.
What is the difference between the annual and month-to-month plan?
The annual plan requires a one-year commitment and is our best value. It comes with a 14-day money back guarantee. If you cancel after that, you'll be charged a 50% fee for the remaining months. The month-to-month plan gives you the flexibility to stop and restart your subscription without a cancellation fee.
Are the applications installed on my computer or are they cloud based?
Your Creative Cloud desktop applications - such as Illustrator - are installed locally on your computer. You don't need an ongoing Internet connection to use them. You only need to connect to the Internet once every 99 days to validate your membership.
Can I use the software on one more computer?
Yes, you can install and run Creative Cloud desktop apps on two computers, such a home and work computer (Mac, PC or one of each)
