FINAL CUT WON'T ON ON MORE THAN ONE COMPUTER ON A NETWORK

I have a Mac Pro, a MacBook Pro, and a Powermac G5 all connected via airport. I am using all three computers to do video editing using Final Cut Studio, but if I try to open Final Cut on more than one computer at a time, I get an error message syaing that there is already an application running on this network with the same serial number. If I disconnect the computer already running Final Cut from the network, then the other computer will open it, but I need them all connected because I am sharing different photo/music/media files between all three computers. I Paid for Final Cut Studio, and I don't see why I can't use it on more than one computer at a time. Is there a way around this without disconnecting them from the network?

Actually you licensed Final Cut Studio and agreed to the license agreement when you installed those programs.
As it states:
"2. Permitted License Uses and Restrictions.
A. Apple Software
This License allows you to install and use one copy of the Apple Software on one Apple-labeled desktop computer and one Apple-labeled laptop
computer so long as both computers are owned and used by you."

Can Final Cut Express be installed on more than one computer?

Thanks!

With a single purchase, it can be installed on a desktop and a laptop, provided that you own and use both.

Laserjet pro p1102w installation on more than one computer on home network

I have just set up a Laserjet Pro1102w at home to work wirelessly which it does without issue. I now want to be able to print to it from my wife's laptop and a desktop PC. The laptops are both Windows 7 the PC Vista. When I was installing the printer at one point a mesage told me that if I want to install it on another computer that the second one would only work if my first one was turned on up and running which would not always be possible. Looking around the manual I saw something about pasting IP addresses into the web browser to set it up, I thought the install disk would be more logical easier. Also would the other computers not see the printer on the wireless home network and just pick it up?
Question: what is the easiest way of connecting the other computers preferably without needing the first laptop to remain on.

Well, that doesn't really answer the question. But probably not the right forum to answer it (and certainly not the right one to ask it).

Can Final Cut Pro 7 be installed on more than one computer?

I am looking to purchase a Final Cut product, maybe Final Cut Pro 7, and wondering how many computers I can install the software on. I'm doing some basic video editing stuff for a sketch comedy team and we use more than one computer at times for editing.
Thanks

You can install on (1) Tower and (1) Laptop, as long as they are both used by you, and NOT at the same time. This is for when you edit on your tower, but then need to edit at home, or on the road. You cannot use one copy of FCP on multiple machines at the same time. You need one copy for each machine you intend to use at the same time.

Final Cut Pro X-More than one computer?

Can Final Cut Pro X be installed on more than one computer with the same Apple ID?

Wow, thanks Tom! I was trying to make sense of Apple's license agreement mouse type, and there was no clear indication of that. Because I have a desktop machine, and a roaming laptop, I wasn't sure if I had to spend that $299.99 twice...thanks, again! Cheers, Tony

Express won't connect to more than one devise

I got an airport express used and it won't connect to more than one device. First only my MacBook and would not allow my iPad on. And now the playstation is connected and the MacBook can't get Internet. Any advise?

Please identify the model number of your AirPort Express (A1084, A1088, A1264?), the brand(s) and model number(s) of your other networking equipment, and how it's all connected. When you launch AirPort Utility and put the AirPort Express into "manual setup" mode, what value do you see for "Connection Sharing" in the Internet panel, "Internet Connection" tab?

Switched from DSL to cable modem. My Airport light won't turn green. Keeps blinking orange. No wireless now and can't connect to more than one computer! ?????

Hmmmm.
If you reset the AirPort Extreme by holding in the reset button for 9-10 seconds and then releasing, the AirPort should be back in default settings which would allow mutliple computers to connect to the LAN ports on the AirPort.
Power off the cable modem for now and leave it off at least 15 minutes.
With the AirPort Extreme still powered on, hold in the rest button on the back for 9-10 seconds and release. Allow a full minute for the AirPort Extreme to restart to a slow, blinking abmer light.
Then, power off the AirPort Extreme.
Check to make sure that the Ethernet cable from the modem is connected to the WAN "O" port on the AirPort Extreme.
After the modem has been powered off for at least 15 minutes, power it up and let it run for 5 minutes by itself.
Now, power up the AirPort Exteme and let it run for 2-3 minutes
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Connect an Ethernet cable from your Mac to one of the LAN <-> ports on the AirPort Express
Click on the AirPort Exteme, then click Continue to follow the guided setup tp configure the AirPort Extreme. You can use the same wireless network name, password, etc that you used before, or set up a new name and password, etc.

Apple won't let me sync with more than one computer

How crazy is it that Apple will not let you sync with more than one computer! I have three computers! One in the kitchen one in my room and one at my parents house. These are all my computers, but if I try to sync my iphone5! with my computer at my parents house itunes says it will erase all my data! I have legally purchased all my music, so I have bought the rights! which means I can have the same songs on mutiply computers.
I've seen posts like this before, so I know Im not the only one who knows that this is unexceptable! Apple knows too! So heres how we gonna do this, **** itunes and **** apple, they can suck it! I'm sick of Apple and how they try to control everything you do, with their limited youtube video capacity because they "dont allow flash".
All Apple care about is taking your money, otherwise they would listen to what their customers are saying. These posts are on an apple site after all.
Thats my opinion, vote this up if you feel the same way.
Thanks

I understand what you mean. If you would have a little more technical background to what is happening when you sync and iOS device, you would understand that the reason for syncing with only one computer is not to control you but is rather to manage the syncing.
For exemple, how would you manage to backup a device on multiple computer while some songs or apps are on your iOS device but not on the computer? Copying them back to the computer would only result in what you don't want, keeping different iTunes library on different computer.
The very best solutions for you is either;
Make one of your iTunes library the master with ALL your media files and use this one for syncing your device. You can easily manage all your music using automated playlist (like one for all the music with an older date you would decide).
Pay for iTunes match and ALL your song (even those you haven't bought from iTunes) to be available in the cloud for you to stream directly to your iPhone. This however have a monthly fee.
I agree that on one thing Apple is controlling; it's by not allowing you to extract songs from an iPod. Giving home sharing now, that would solely restrict you from illegally copying music to others. But again, you must understand that this limitation isn't to be powerfreak, it have been required to secure the music industries and make iTunes Store possible in the first place.
And make shure you active Home Sharing as it will give you full access (stream and copy over wi-fi from any computer and iOS devices) in between your iTunes libraries.

More Than One Computer Trying to Access Web = Very Slow Download Speeds?

We have Verizon DSL with a basic Westell modem, which supposedly is only a modem with no router capabilities. We have an Airport Extreme Snow Base Station that acts as a WDS Main, with one other AEB Snow as a WDS Remote. All computers have unique ip addresses in the 10.0.1.X range as provided by the WDS Main's DHCP.
When only one computer connects to the internet to download web pages, software updates, etc., there seems to be no problem at all. When I do a speed check I get results that seem to be in the correct range, and it doesn't matter which computer I use for the test.
However, if we try to access the internet with more than one computer at the same time, everything slows to a crawl. Such as, if one computer is downloading software updates, the other CPUs have super slow web page downloads, slow to the point of connection time-outs at times. Or if two of the computers are simply trying to download web pages at the same time, one or the other has super slow downloads.
I feel like there is some kind of routing problem with the Base Station but for the life of me I cannot figure it out.
What could the problem be? Where could it originate, and what, if any, advice could someone give me to help trace the problem?
Thanks in advance.

... the one computer I am looking at right now shows DNS servers as 10.0.1.1, which is the internal ip address of the AEB. Could this be part of the problem?
That is normal and shouldn't cause a problem. Essentially it tells the computer to ask the snow AirPort base station (ABS) for DNS information. The ABS will then provide the DNS information which it currently received from the ISP.
Would it help if I manually entered the DNS numbers that appear on the AEB on each machine's Network Preferences?
Probably not. A busy DNS server or faulty DNS info won't affect download speeds. That only affects browsing since that requires the computer to convert human readable addresses to numbers that the computer can use.
Remember that the snow ABS only operates at 802.11b (11 Mbps) speeds. Then when you use WDS it cuts your available wireless bandwidth in half.

Can't use the iPod on more than one computer!!!!!!!

Ok, This has got me so frustrated! We got an iPod and installed iTunes. We thought we had it figured out - we purchased music from iTunes, played it on the iPod and everything was great. Then plugged the iPod into my other computer to listen to our music and it won't freakin' play! says the computer is "Not Authorized" and suggests that by 'authorizing' the 2nd computer, it will overwrite the songs that are already on the iPod. This is NOT desirable. We've downloaded and installed iTunes onto the 2nd computer and used the same login account that we used on the first computer.
What gives!?!?! I thought this was supposed to be easy, but it's not! I was hoping for a quick and simple "plug it in and start listening to music." This is definately not quick and simple. Albeit, I'm new to this iPod craze, but this shouldn't be so difficult. I've poked around on the website and cannot seem to find an answer to this.
HELP!!!!
Thanks
oh btw, Is anyone else getting annoyed by Apple's rediculous attempt at monopolizing this market by forcing us to use thier own proprietary software?!?!

First of all, any computer that plays purchased content must be authorized. This can be accomplished by opening iTunes, then store>authorize computer. If you wish to use your iPod on more than one computer & not have your iPod content erased, you will have to have your iPod preferences set on "manually manage". See the following link.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61675
Also, it's not only Apple that uses proprietary software. How about Zune players, & several others?

Synching with more than one computer and attempting to delete more than one

Rage is not the word. I have been having the worst time with this thing! UGH! 1st I have more than one computer that has different music on each, but this thing will only sync with 1 and delete anything from another library already added. CRAZY! Second I wanted to rip my cds to my computer without being connected to the internet and itunes won't recong the music added at a later time. I have to be connected to the internet for it to Id the music as I am ripping...CRAZY! Then I was attempting to delete the duplicated music that was not Id and it would only allow me to delete one song at a time...CRAZY! Is there a way to have this thing synch with more than 1 computer? Delete songs in a group and not everything in sight. If so how and if anyone has any remedies for the rest of this craziness I would be most appreciative. I took me forever to even figure how to get to the point to post this. I beginning to feel very sorry I bought this thing. I thought I could rip my cds, and use my work and home computers to synch with it. Please someone tell me I wasn't wrong for making this assumption. Will I be able to sych with other ipods? I bought this thing thinking I could was I wrong. I haven't even attempted that yet. I have an 80 GB ipod

"I have more than one computer that has different music on each, but this thing will only sync with 1 and delete anything from another library already added"
You can't "sync" that is automatically update an iPod from multiple libraries or computers. 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.
Using iPod with Multiple computers
Managing content manually on iPod
"I have to be connected to the internet for it to Id the music as I am ripping"
That's correct, iTunes (and other music programs) downloads the information from an online database that contains the details of many thousands of CDs.
"Delete songs in a group and not everything in sight"
Click on the first track you want to delete in a list, hold down the shift key and click on the last one, this highlights everything in between. Press the delete key
"Will I be able to sych with other ipods?"
What do you want to sync with other iPods, iTunes? You can't sync one iPod with another, you can only update from iTunes. If you are adding a second iPod for your own use, just connect the new iPod to your computer and follow the on screen instructions. It will update from your existing library. Depending on the size of your library and the type of iPod you choose you can have it update all songs and playlists, selected playlists only or you can manage it manually. You can also have a look at this page:How to use multiple iPods with one computer

Can you sync an iPad 2 to more than one computer.

I got a new ipad2. Can I sync it with my Mac at my house and also on my pc at work

You can authorize more than one computer with iTunes, but you have to maintain your iTunes library on one machine. Otherwise, you'll have a syncing nightmare. So, it's not advisable to sync to more than one computer as you'll be in a situation where you'll lose data from one machine to the next. Come this fall when iOS 5 is released, you won't need to sync with a computer at all. For the time being, I recommend you limit syncs to one computer.........

Can I install photoshop cs5 on more than one computer, if "owned" by a different user?

I want to install my recently purchased photoshop cs5 on my macbook, as well as my imac. The only thing I worry about is that the macbook is in my name and the imac is technically in my dad's name, even though he only uses it to surf the web. The only reason he even bought the imac as opposed to anything else is so that I'd have a great place to edit photos. I really need it to be on both, will this work? Anyone have experience with this?

This is what I was able to dig out
May I use the software on more than one computer at a time?
The activation process supports installation on two machines. The Adobe product license agreement allows the primary user to install the product on a primary computer and also on a home or laptop computer for his or her use, provided that the two copies are not used simultaneously. While the activation process supports installing and activating Adobe software on two machines, the usage of the product on the second computer is restricted to the user who licensed the software. Allowing others to use a second copy of the software violates the product license agreement.
