    Is there a way to determine what machines, or at the very least if more than one machine, is running a license for Final Cut Pro Studio?

    MacPro OSX 10.6.8 2×2.26 QCIX 10GB 1066MHz DDR3 FCP7.0.3/FCS3
    FCSvr1.5 Xsan2.2 DotHill 24TB QlogicSANbox 8GB ATTO 8GB

    If the machines are on the same network you can tell if 2 have duplicate serial numbers as you will get a mesage on boot up of FCP that another machine is already using that serial number.

    Other than that its a case of looking at splash screens and checking I think.

    The related files are stored as “Final Cut Studio System ID” here:

    /library/application support/Pro Apps

    and also here

    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.RegFinalCutStudio.plist.

    but not sure they will help you too much in looking as they are not formatted to be easily readable.

    best wishes
