I’m in similar predicament with CS5.5 after upgrading (and licensed) and I have to set up on a Mac & 2 pcs.

In the office we just formatted all the pcs, and reinstalled both the OS and CS5.5. Also, on the mac, we gave up since we can’t seem to be licensed despite buying one. I just requested a replacement from our vendor.

What a crock of bull. As a recent college graduate with a limited budget, I’m starting to regret purchasing a license to Creative Suite 4 Master Collection. Quite a hefty investment in something that could easily be a ticking time bomb that can quickly become unusable.

This easily shows why piracy of Adobe products is so rampant and easy to access. While I do not officially condone software piracy, it may become an option out of necessity if their DRM locks you out of your legitimately purchased software.

I fully sympathize with you. Since it’s been a few months since this post, I hope you were able to come up with a solution…
