Does anyone use LR on more than one computer? Is it covered in the normal license or do you have to pay more? I'd like to use it on my small laptop in addition to my desktop computer. Any advice welcome please....

Re: Lightroom.....multiple computers
If you are using Adobe CC you may install software on up to two computers. These two computers can be Windows, Mac OS, or one each.
If you install on a third computer, it will request you to de-activate on the other two computers. You can then reactivate one of the previous two computers, and use Creative Cloud apps on it.
Canon 5D3, 7D2, 60D, Canon 70-200L f2.8 IS II, Canon 300 f4L IS, Canon 16-35 f4 L, Canon 24-105mm f/4L IS USM, Canon 1.4 MkIII extender, Sigma AF 10-20mm f/3.5 EX DC HSM, Sigma 150-600 Contemporary, Tamron SP AF 70-300 F/4-5.6 Di VC USD, Canon EF-S 18-55mm 1:3.5-5.6 IS

Re: Lightroom.....multiple computers
I use Adobe CC on several machines from time to time. My workflow used to be LR first and then open the file in PS if I needed to. I tend to bypass LR these days and go straight to ACR/PS, after all, ACR has the same engine as LR. The issue I have had in using LR on different machines is you obviously want to use the same catalogue so I have mine on Dropbox which is no big deal but you also have to make sure the path is always the same to the files which is not always possible; drive letters etc have to be the same. If you don't LR has to be told each time where the files are (also on DropBox for me). That doesn't sound too onerous but from experience can be quite painful on occasions. That's one of the main reasons I started to use ACR and PS more rather than LR.
