How many times can I use a Windows 7 disc in Bootcamp?

Hello,
I want to install Windows 7 on my Macbook Pro via Bootcamp, but I am wondering how many times I can use the Windows Install disc. Currently, I have one MacBook Pro, and in the near future, I will be getting an iMac. Now I want to be able to create a Windows partition for each of these computers, but I am wondering if I will be able to use the same Windows Install disc, or activation keys, or whatever. So can I use a single Windows Install disc on two different computers to create two fully-functioning Bootcamp partitions?
Thanks for any help.

yes an activation pair the serial nr with a guid from the hardware one install it on so it can only be activated 1 time
(if ones computer dies then one have to call ms to be able to use the serial on a new computer)
if one does not activate windows it will stop working after 30 days or so

    Hi,
    a Windows License can be used exactly one time on one computer.
    The activation process Microsoft has established with XP prevents the usage of one license on more than one computer.

  • How Many Times Can I Use The Same Serial Number For Adobe Creative Suite 4?

    I have design standard and was told I can use the same serial number on multiple computers. How many time can I use it? And say I install it on the maximum number of computers, but get a new computer, can I uninstall it on one of the old computers and use it on the new one? And can I use the programs on both computers simultaneously or do I have to use them one at a time?

    Broadly speaking, it depends on the type of license you have.
    Specifically, if you have a single license then officially, you should only install it once on one computer.
    Practically, (unless it has changed with CS4) you maybe able to install it on more then one computer, BUT can only run one instance of the software at a time. You can not run more then one instance of the software concurrently; i.e. you can't run Dreamweaver on Computer 1 and Photoshop on Computer 2. That would be two instances, and is not permitted.
    This is my understanding. I am happy to be corrected if I am wrong

    Sorry Fred you are wrong.
    If you have a single license you can install it on as many computers as you like. you can only activate the suite on two computers at anyone time. Work and Home or as many of us do it Desktop and Laptop. You can not use the computers simultaneously. You only have 20 activation/deactivations so use them wisely. Student versions only have one activation. You can not break up the suite installs the suite is considered one application.

  • Offline updates mechanism: how many times can you use it before corrupting the image(wim)?

    Hi,
    As title mentions: "how many times can you use sccm 2012 offline updates for the wim file before corrupting the image(wim)"?

    In my experience the offline servicing feature is only OK and too unreliable for production.

  • How many times can u use an app?

    hey! i have purchased many ipad apps
    im about to get a second ipad and i want the apps on both using just the one purchase of them (one account)
    my question is how many times can u use an ipad app with one purchase? i kknow with music it says 5 copies but how many with apps?

    Do you and your wife share the same itunes account or do you each have one? If you share the same one - say both you and she log in as [email protected] into itunes, then every device you sync up with itunes will share the same apps - provided they're compatible.
    For example, I had an ipod touch for over a year then got the ipad, all my touch apps transferred to my ipad when i set it up. I could then go in and delete the ones I didn't want on the ipad. And if I were to also get an iPhone, I could sync any existing apps that I have bought that are compatible with the iphone to it.
    Theoretically, if i had 20 ipads for a classroom, I could use one itunes account and put the exact same apps on all 20 of them.

  • How many times can i use the limited warranty on my Apple iPhone 5, I just broke mine after getting a brand new one. Also, can I extend my warranty?

    How many times can i use the limited warranty on my Apple iPhone 5, I just broke mine after getting a brand new one. Also, can I extend my warranty?

    If you purchased AppleCare + within 30 days of getting your iPhone 5 you are allowed 2 instances of breakage replacement with a $49 deductible. If you do not have AppleCare + accidental breakage is not covered under you warranty, you can do an out-of-warranty replacement for $229.

  • How many times can I use a form?

    Hi Everyone,
    Can anyone explain what this means? (text below) If I make a form in LiveCycle Designer and then I extend it so that other users can fill it out...Does that mean that only 500 people can use the form?
    If so, then...I am dumbfounded and disappointed.
    What must be purchased in order to allow more than 500 people to use an extended form?
    Thanks All.
    "15.12.3. For any unique Extended Document, you may only either (a) Deploy such Extended Document to an unlimited number of unique recipients but shall not extract information from more than five hundred (500) unique instances of such Extended Document or any hardcopy representation of such Extended Document containing filled form fields; or (b) Deploy such extended Document to no more than five hundred (500) unique recipients without limits on the number of times you may extract information from such Extended Document returned to you filled-in by such Recipients. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, obtaining additional licenses to use Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Pro Extended shall no increase the foregoing limits (that is, the foregoing limits are the aggregate total limits regardless of how many additional licenses to use Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Pro Extended you may have obtained).

    There are two parts to your question, even though one is implicit.
    Question 1 (implicit): Can I have an unlimited number of people fill in and submit the data for a form?
    Answer 1: Yes.  Reader has always allowed an unlimited number of people fill in a form as part of a web transaction and submit the results.  And, there have always been an unlimited number of times that someone can store the form (with no data filled in) on local systems or media or print the form.
    Question 2: Then what is the 500 user limit referred to with the reader extensions talking about?
    Answer 2: Reader Extensions is a capability enabled by the LiveCycle Reader Extensions server, or Acrobat (in the limited cases you quote from the EULA) to let a user save a form on a local system with data filled into it.  You can read more about it on the product page; the number of forms or recipients are part of the terms of the server license. Acrobat Pro can reader-extend a subset of the capabilities of the server product (only local form data save, signatures and commenting; not pdf spawn pages, web services or ODBC data access) and it only allows the 500 users in the two cases in the EULA for form data save.
    To make this more clear, consider two cases... a form that is not reader-extended (RE) and one that is.
    Not RE: You can get a form from a website, fill it in, and then submit the data by HTTP or email. However, if you save the form on your local system, the form that is saved is the blank form without the data.
    RE:You can get a form from a website, fill it in, and then submit the data by HTTP or email. But also, the user can save a copy of his form with the data filled in for his archival purposes. They can also start filling out the form, save it locally, come back and work on the data later, save again, and then finally submit.  The submit can be done by the same HTTP or email methods as above or the user can even choose to send the entire form back and have the werver process extract the data. (If you choose to reader extend through Acrobat, this use case is subject to the EULA limitations).
    I hope that helps.

  • How many times can I use Migration Assistant?

    Hello All,
    I am planning on buying an Intel i7 iMac in the near future, and I want to take some of the files from my old Core Duo computer and move them to the i7 iMac. I'm not throwing out the Core Duo iMac, I just want some of the files on the new i7, but I don't want to clutter it up with files I don't need to move. How many times am I allowed to run Migration Assistant? Suppose one day I just want to bring over my iTunes 7 library, and my email accounts but I don't need anything else on the first day. Is it ok to just migrate those couple of things in one session and migrate other things in another session? It seems like that's how it will work but I don't know for sure.
    Thanks,
    Dave
    This was posted from my Core Duo running OS X 10.4.11. I want to use the i7 as my main computer but still use this one (Core Duo) in another room on my WiFi network. The i7 will be taking all new emails.

    Ajduguid,
    That's what I did on all my other Macs as I got them. I just decided to upgrade the memory in my old slow core duo iMac to 2 Gigs and I bought the box set. So far I installed 10.6. It works but just as slowly as before, which I think is it's normal speed. But now I have the option of turning Rosetta on and off.
    Now I can wait for Lion and the second generation i7 iMac to be released and be up to date on my Core Duo iMac. I'll be back when I get to migrating to a new iMac, or maybe before.
    Thanks,
    Dave

  • How many times can you use a serial number?

    I used my serial number on one computer and I'm trying to use it on the other computer. But, on the other computer, it keeps saying that the serial number is invalid. I checked my number to see if i typed it correctly, and its correct but it still wont work! So I'm wondering if you are allowed to use one serial number on two computers. (I'm triying to use it to download the Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 app)

    You need to contact Adobe Support when you have serial number and activation issues, either by chat or via phone.

    I bought photoshop elements 11 and installed it on my new laptop (disc) and I'm needing to take my new laptop back and I'm wondering if I'll be able to download it again on my newer laptop...

    You are allowed two activated installs. If you are returning your laptop and don't need PSE on it anymore, go to Editor>Help>Deactivate to free up that activation for future use.

  • How many times can the photoshop code be used?  Like can I download it on one computer then later download it on a different computer?

    Basically the title explains my question.  How many times can the photos hop code be used?  Like can I download it on one computer then later download it on a different computer?

    You're allowed two installations/registrations. Anything above that requires deregistration on one of those computers.
    Take note that if this is Photoshop CC, it's as easy as signing out on a system; there aren't any serial numbers involved as it's all tied to your Adobe ID.
