i've registered my store bought FCP studio, can i now install it on another computer?
Hi all,
I own a Mac Quad and FCP Studio, and will soon be getting an Intel MacBook Pro laptop - can i install my FCP Studio to it, do i need to by another version (i know i need to upgrade to universal), do i purchase another license fee, or just can i simply install off the cd-roms and no problems... |
No problem just install fcp studio to your new machine. I'm not 100% sure on all the legal details but the way I heard it explained is that you can install it on multiple machines you just can't use it at the same time. Hope that helps.

Rather than relying on hearsay, why not just read the license? :-)

Boyd - why rely in hearsay - my kinda guy! I looked all over last night, for the licensing agreement - you are the man...
And this is exactly my intended use, one desktop, one laptop... Thanks for your specificity! Lonnie |
The EULA text, for all licensed software, is presented first thing upon running the installation program. Most folks just click or select "I Agree" and move on to install process without reading it.
You should read the EULA before agreeing, it's a contract. |
That's a good point. You might also want to bookmark this page on Apple's site which lists all their software licenses: http://images.apple.com/legal/sla/
Most software companies will have an area on their site with all their licenses, but it can be hard to find; try clicking on a "site map" link if they have one on the home page. Just the other day I wanted to review the site license terms for some database software we're upgrading and it took a little digging to find, but it was there :-) |
