Ap3 on multiple computers?

I understand I can install Ap3 on up to three Mac's in household. I downloaded Trial onto my MacBook, then paid for Ser No to upgrade it to full version. Would I now download Trial onto my iMac, then enter Ser No I now have onto iMac to upgrade it as well??

When I look at the license on the App Store for Aperture (screen shot attached), it says that you can use the SW on computers that you own. Which is different from I just posted.
So do we interpret this as I can put this on any computer I own? Meaning I own (purchased) my spouse's, my kid's and my own computers, so I can put the SW on any of those computers? What if I purchased a computer for a friend, or another family member?
The problem I think I run into though, is it goes on reference the Mac App Store Product Usage Rules, under Mac Usage Rules. I followed that link, but I couldn't find anything using the word Usage on that link. I did look at the End User Software License Agreements link, upper right of that link, which takes you to www.apple.com/legal/sla site.
So, what is it?
One license per computer?
One per one desktop and one laptop that I use?
One license for all the computers that I use?
One license for all the computers that I own?
You'd think they'd try and make it a little easier to figure this out.

  • Multiple Computers on the same network

    We're currently transitioning to Windows 8.1 MRD after many years running OSX and ARD in our small office.
    We have two computers that we need to access independently from the outside. We opened up the recommend port for MRD and have it working as expected on a single computer. However, we can only gain access to a single machine from the outside. With Apple Remote
    Desktop, you simply open up additional ports to allow access for multiple machines. Super easy. We decided to do the same with MRD, but failed with everything we attempted.
    Does MRD not support using custom ports for multiple computers?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    We can achieve the result as you want with remote desktop connection. We need to allow the port from firewall end and can apply particular rules with advanced option for specific ports. Also if you are using Routers then need to open the port from router end,
    and finally when connecting user “servername:portnumber” and provide credentials.
    Please checkthis article for more details.
    Hope it helps!
    Thanks.

  • Syncing to multiple computers

    when syncing my ipod touch to my computer at work, it deletes everything stored from my home computer. what am i doing wrong?

    If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply. In this mode you can directly access the content of the iPod and play it through iTunes and you can drag and drop whatever you want to the iPod from either library:

  • Using Messages with Multiple Users and Multiple Computers

    I have two users who share two different computers, switching between them during the day.
    I'd like to use messages on them for us to send text messages in the office, however, it asks them on logging in (most, but not everytime) to re-enter their apple id password.  It seems that using icloud for messages among multiple computers like this isn't good.  its like it wants each computers to be linked with a particular user, and doesn't like it that the users are moving around from computer to computer
    Options to avoid this nuisance?
    1.  Would bonjour messaging work, and then just remove the icloud account from messages?
    2.  How about setting up the message server on my ML Server, would that avoid this problem?

    I'd say probably make sure that in the advanced tab under edit>preferences you should make sure they both point to the same file.
    My turn now, how to i post a thread, there's no button.

    whenever I open my yahoo mail when using Firefox, a pop up box appears on the upper left side of the screen, it asks the question "do you use the yahoo! toolbar on multiple computers?" and gives click boxes for "Save to my yahoo ID" and "No thanks, just save to this computer". I get no response to clicking on either box, nor will the pop up close if I click on the "X" in the upper right corner of this pop up. It won't close out and it sits right over the top of the email messages in my inbox. All else seems to work fine, but can't get rid of this pop up box....very annoying.

  • How to sync with multiple computers?

    I have my iTunes library on my MacBook and all of my Apple devices synced accordingly. My family also has an iMac, and I would like other family members to be able to sync from the iMac. I know I can use Home Sharing to allow the iMac to view/play the music when my Macbook is active on the network. I also know I can purchase iTunes Match so I can access the music when my MacBook is offline and edit the playlists. Yet, I would love to be able to set up the iMac so the iDevices could actually by synced with that computer as opposed to mine. How can I go about this?

    Yes, you can sync your device with multiple computers.  Only that one is set to AUTO SYNC whilst the rest is set to "MANUALLY MANAGE MUSIC".
    Refer to this article:
    Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1202
    However, issues may occur leading to data corruption or data loss if you regularly sync Contacts, Calendars, Notes, or bookmarks between multiple computers using iTunes and your iOS device. Syncing once to move your data to a new computer should not cause these issues.

    When i tell the mac to use the itunes library.itl file it sees the song list (about 100gb) but cant see any songs, so i have removed this file to another location for now with the hope to set up a new file and then get it to see the songs on the folder from the NAS.

  • Can I share one iTunes Library with multiple computers on a network?

    Can I share one iTunes Library with multiple computers on a network?
    note: one library universally shared, not Home Sharing (one library each, shared to each.)
    I want to share one library stores on my server and access it through various local computers. When I buy a song from a computer (non-server), I want it to be added to the library (stored on server). I want it to auto copy to my server, for organization. I want to be able to sync my phone from any computer.
    Most of this I can do, if i figure out how to use one universal library for all my computers.
    Any ideas how I can do this?

    eyeinit,
    You can authorize your iTunes account on up to 5 computers at a time.
    However, purchased music is downloaded to the first machine to download it, but these articles have more information on moving your music between authorized computers:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93063
    This one is for moving all your music using an iPod as a storage drive

  • Can I put an aperture library on a network drive and edit from multiple computers?

    I have an Imac desktop and a macbook pro.  I want to be able to edit pictures from multiple computers.  If I simply put the aperture library on a network server drive in my home, can I edit the same aperture library from both the Imac and the macbook? Rather than always having to sit in my office making changes to files I would love to also be able to do this with my laptop sitting ont the couch or in the kitchen.  Any advice is greatly appreciated. 

    Get yourself a small portable external drive for your Aperture library.
    An Aperture library needs to be on directly connected drive formatted MacOS Extended (Journaled). network access is not supported and can lead to data loss and library corruption.
    See Apple's support document:  Use locally mounted Mac OS X Extended volumes for your Aperture library

  • Syncing the same iTunes library among multiple computers

    I have two computers, a Windows 7 laptop and a new iMac. iTunes on both computers are signed into the same Apple ID. I currently have my iTunes library on my laptop, but I would like to also have the exact same library on my iMac. For instance, if I download a new podcast to my laptop, it should be placed on my iMac as well. When I delete the podcast, it should be deleted on the iMac too. When song metadata is updated on my laptop (play count, lyrics, etc), I want it updated on the iMac automatically.
    I have not had much experience with Home Sharing, but would that do all of this automatically? I know I could manually transfer songs from one computer to the other using Home Sharing, but what about updated metadata or deleting files?
    iCloud has made this situation more interesting. I know iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match will keep music files in sync among various devices (including metadata?), but what about podcasts or movies or files not purchased via iTunes? I know there are plenty of details that are yet to be released concerning iCloud, but do you think it will solve this problem entirely, or will manual labor be required to obtain the exact same library among multiple computers?
    I have considered only using my iMac to maintain my library, since it is always on and I could use Home Sharing to listen to music on my laptop since they are on the same Wifi network. However, I feel it would be best to keep the same library on two computers for when I take my laptop on vacation away from my home network.
    What would you suggest for this situation?
    Thanks!

    sorry about the slight irrelevence of this post on this thread....i saw this much older post you had in my explorations and it is almost to a "T" my issue currently and i was wondering if you ever came to a conclusion or had any tips or resolution paths i could explore. your original message:
         I have 2 computers I'd like to set up Home Sharing on. One is Windows XP and the other is Windows 7.
         I set it all up but then the libraries never show up. Nothing happens.
         The computers are on the same network and I can successfully share files and a printer. Both computers are      authorized using the same account. Both are signed into that account.
         I don't know why it's not working. Can you please help?
              Thanks!!
    is EXACTLY my problem with the only variable being that both of my computers run 7. furthermore, you went on to say you were experiencing issues with the "remote" app. that was the initial objective for me in my system that got me here with a deeper problem with home share. i want to home share my itunes library and control it from my iPod touch 4g. is that such an unreasonable request?!?!? lol. i'm incredibly frustrated and was hoping that since you had such specifically similar circumstances....have you found a solution? PLEASE HELP!!! thank you so much for your time.

    Chris here again, from the iTunes Support team. I want to thank you for your quick response.
    First off any computer this applies too needs to have the Mac App store on it, to share the app that you purchased  you will need to log into the account that you first purchased Mac OS X Lion on in the first place to and then redownload the app onto the new computer and install it. This applies  to any app that you wish to share on another computer.
    Apps from the Mac App Store may be used on any Macs that you own or control for personal use. You may be asked for your Apple ID and password the first time you use an app. You won't have to provide them again unless you use the app on a different computer or there is an update.
    This does not apply to purchasing other apps as you can have multiple account on one compute, once again, the only exception would be if there was an update, then you will be require to provided the username and password of the account that the app in this case Mac OS X Lion was purchased on.
    I hope that I have been able to clarify things for you.  If you have any further questions, please let me know and I would be more than happy to address them for you.

    So wait. To download other apps I wouldn't have to be logged into the computer using the initial os lion accounts I'd? If I get lion and i log into the other computer and select install from the purchase history, after authorizing of course, I won't have to log into my account, the one initially used to buy and install lion, to buy and install other apps onto the other computer?

If you require any further assistance after this message, just reply to this email; your response will come straight to my inbox and will be given top priority!
    Moving forward,  I understand that you would like to get some answers about installing OS X - Lion onto another computer. I can definitely appreciate how eager you are to get some answers to your questions. I would be happy to assist you today in this matter.
    I do first need to mention that I was unable to open the link that you have provided  and thus unable to address any concerns related to that discussion.
    You can redownload any apps including Lion that  you have purchased from the Mac App Store without incurring additional charges.
    To learn how to redownload apps on the Mac App Store, please refer to the steps in this article:
    Mac App Store: Backing up your app purchases
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4482
    If you continue to have difficulty downloading any applications, please reply to let me know or consult this article:
    Troubleshooting the Mac App Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3624
    So in summary, yes after you have initially downloaded it you can then goto another computer that you have access to and redownload it and install it there. That computer will have to be apart of your authorized computers which again is up to 5 authorized machines at one time per account. This is shared with iTunes so five maximum for both, as far as what I believe the store rep meant fur OS updates you would need to log into the account the OS was purchased to get upgrades.
    Other than taking up one of the authorized computers this should have no other affect on your purchasing ability. If you have any issues with this or more questions, please let me know and I would be more than happy to address them for you.

    INITIAL EMAIL SENT: by me to apple representative
    : So I had questions about os lion. Here is what an apple store representative told me.
    https://storechat.apple.com/hc/6964264/?cmd=file&file=chatFrame&site=6964264&SV! chat-button-name=chat-us-consumer-sales-english-1&SV!chat-button-room=chat-us-co nsumer-sales-english-1&referrer=%28button%20dynamic-button:chat-us-consumer-sale s-english-1%28Help%20-%20Apple%20Store%20%28U.S.%29%29%29%20http%3A//store.apple .com/us/help%3Fmco%3DNzc1MjMwOQ&sessionkey=H4163946581421609647-4030035787087660 883K3438618
    (note) for some reason this link doesn't work...
    sorry for the gigantic link....
    Basically, to download on multiple macs without buying 3 times I would :
    1. buy and install on my mac
    2. log into my account (the one i bought lion on)
    3. authorize my account for use on my parent(s)' computer(s) (do i need to do this? didn't get this question answered)
    4. either check purchase history for os lion or click buy now while logged into the account I initially bought it with and install on that computer
    From what i've gathered from the store representative I've found that I need to use the account I got lion under for any further purchases on that computer. Is this true? If so does it affect iTunes at all (buying music and such)?
    Are these steps valid and legal? There has been talk about doing it like this
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/15676536#15676536
    here is a discussion on the matter.
    END OF EMAIL SECTION
    HERE ARE THE SUMMERIZED STEPS:
    1. go ahead and buy/download os lion on the account of your choice (make sure you know that this account needs to be used whenever you want to download os lion on multiple computers)
    2. before going on, perhaps backing up the installer file upon completion of download would be good. This applies to people who have spotty internet as the installer file apparently disappears (self destructs) after installation but you can always re-download for free using the account initially used to install/buy/download.
    3. Go to the computer you wish to install os lion on. Open up itunes then log into itunes using the same account that you used to purchase lion on. then go to the store tab at the top left of the screen (there should be an apple symbol, then iTunes in bold then there should be a tab further along the right side called store. and, under that, go to authorize this computer. If you do this and it says it's already authorized then thats good.
    4. Open up the mac app store. Log into the account used to initially purchase lion. Go to purchase history and click install.
    Now here is the catch. According to an email sent by an apple representative for the mac app store, there are limiations:
    "This is what i had said before receiving the email: what i mean is that the computers in question belong to family members and not to me. I would not use them."
    In this matter, I will quote you the terms and conditions of the mac app store that the Mac OS X Lion is bound by,  Apps from the Mac App Store may be used on any Macs that you own or control for personal use. You may be asked for your Apple ID and password the first time you use an app. You won't have to provide them again unless you use the app on a different computer.
    Since you are indicate that there will be no use or control and then no it would be a violation of the terms and condition, if there was some personal use well then it would meet the conditions  If you have any further questions, please let me know and I would be more than happy to address them for you. Thank you very much for being part of the iTunes Store family, Dylan, and I hope you have a great day.
    This means that if you are not using this method for personal use on your OWN computer it is a violation of terms of service. For example: there is a feature in OS lion that allows you to drag and drop files from one computer with lion to another computer with lion. If you were to do that so you could store files on another family members computer (and then proceed to access them now and then) it is ok.

    yes you would have to log onto her computer using your own apple id if you want it to update (assuming your id was the one downloading lion) and no for the second question. The itunes Representative said it shouldn't have any impact on your purchasing ability.....
    By the way, i don't think you're allowed to install lion on your friend's computer. Unless you are using it for yourself. As the rep said "if there was some personal use well then it would meet the conditions." so if you were to transfer, say, pictures for storage on your friend's computer then i think it'd be fine.

  • Same iTunes Library on Multiple Computers

    I was wondering whether someone could help me out a little here. I have 3 computers at home. A MacBook Pro, a Windows Vista Laptop and a Windows Vista desktop PC. Both my Wife and I have iPods (mine an iPhone and hers an 8Gb 2nd Generation Nano).
    What I want to be able to do is access my iTunes music collection (the music files are currently stored on the MacBook) through any computer in the house (I have wireless through Time Capsule). This I am told is easy through iTunes sharing, however this does not allow you to connect your iPod to any machine and update it, as sharing does allow this.
    Is there a way of storing the iTunes library and files on one machine, like a central server and then you can play music from any computer (perhaps using iTunes on that machine) and you can also plugin your iPod/iPhone into any machine in order to update it?
    Looking forward to hearing peoples suggestions on this one.
    Thanks.
