  • No. of computers I can load software on

    Posted by David Greer on September 3, 2007 at 11:19 pm

    I’m a single user working on two macs. Can I load one software package on both computers or is there some sort of licensing limit with FC Studio ?

    What’s the best way to have FC running on both machines?

    You don’t say what version, but I believe the current license allows installation on one desktop and one portable, as long as they aren’t used at the same time.

    If you have 2 computers that you want to use at the same time, you need to buy two copies of the software.

    PHYSICALLY you can load it onto thousands of computers if you want, but if you wish to keep within the rules of the EULA you have to do what Steven said.

    Though how anyone can tell whether you are using them simultaneously (rather hard with just one user unless you are ambidextrous ) or consecutively, I don’t know.

    if the computer are on the same network then when you try to open FCP on another computer that is using the same serial number for FCP then FCP will not open.
