Switching from PC to Mac question [Resolved]

Postby Bcassatt88 » Fri Nov 05, 2021 2:15 am

Hi,

So I have a bunch of IK plugins on my PC, but I just ordered a Mac mini, and I know I have the 9 authorizations left after my 1st install, but I saw the UA says stuff like "if your product is authorized for iPad, that doesn't mean you'll have the same authorizations for Android", so I'm just trying to clarify: I will be able to just download the product manager on the Mac and sign into my account to get copies of everything in the right format, right? Do I have to deauthorize the same ones on Windows? Or am I not allowed to switch formats with the same license? Sorry I searched the forum and couldn't find or didn't understand the answer. Any advice much appreciated. Thanks.

Hello Bcassatt88 and welcome to the forum.

The licence you have purchased covers you for both macOS and Windows installations as long as you adhere to the EULA.

The main points being 1) the software is only installed on a total of three machines at any one time 2) you mustn't use the software simultaneously on more than one machine 3) you mustn't sell a machine with authorised software on it.

Hope that helps.
