Premiere Pro support section

of the Adobe

website.

For Premiere Pro system requirements, see the

Adobe website

Install the software

Note: The free trial version of Adobe Premiere Pro software does not include some features that depend upon software
licensed from parties other than Adobe. For example, some codecs for encoding MPEG formats are available only with
the full version of Adobe Premiere Pro software.

License activation

During the installation process, your Adobe software contacts Adobe to complete the license activation process. No
personal data is transmitted. For more information on product activation, visit the Adobe website at

www.adobe.com/go/activation

A single-user retail license activation supports two computers. For example, you can install the product on a desktop
computer at work and on a laptop computer at home. If you want to install the software on a third computer, first
deactivate it on one of the other two computers. Choose Help

> Deactivate.

Register

Register your product to receive complimentary installation support, notifications of updates, and other services.

To register, follow the on-screen instructions in the Registration dialog box, which appears after you install the
software.

If you postpone registration, you can register at any time by choosing Help

> Registration.
