Install RoboHelp 2015 on laptop

[DClairet]

I have a subscription to RoboHelp 2015 and I have installed the product (version 12.0.2.384) on my desktop PC.  Now I would like to install the same version of RoboHelp on my laptop, which I understand I am allowed to do as long as I do not use both copies at the same time.  But I cannot find a way of downloading a copy of that version on my laptop.  The only option available seems to download a new trial version of RoboHelp, which would then be RoboHelp 2017.  What can I do to install RoboHelp 2015 on my laptop?  Thanks in advance for any answer.

Isn't there some sort subscription manager installed as well as RoboHelp?

If there is, doesn't that give you a link? If not, Support will be able to

give you a link.

Beware of links to other downloads of RoboHelp 2015. Hopefully your key

will tie it in but I would check that with Adobe.

How did you install first time and link to your subscription?

Post back if you get stuck and I will ask a contact.

prodesigntools.com links to adobe's servers.

@kglad I hadn't seen your response when I posted so I was really replying to the poster rather than your reply. Thanks for adding the bit about ProDesign pointing to Adobe's servers.

Interesting information but it should be easier than that. I clicked the RoboHelp 2015 download link before I got further down the thread to see there are other steps needed first. Without that link, I can't see how anyone would figure it out. It should be easier.

Thanks again for the information.

Download and installation help for Adobe links

Download and installation help for Prodesigntools links are listed on most linked pages.  They are critical; especially steps 1, 2 and 3.  If you click a link that does not have those steps listed, open a second window using the Lightroom 3 link to see those 'Important Instructions'.

For the benefit of anyone else looking at this thread, I have since found this link. You will need a valid serial number to use the download.
