Is it legal to install and run Parallels Desktop 8 on more than one Mac that I own for personal use?

I run Windows 7 on my old MacBook Pro using Parallels Desktop 8. Am I licensed to use the same Parallels software to run Windows 8 on my new MacBook Air?

According to the Parallels Desktop for Mac licensing policy the answer is no.
In accordance with the End User License Agreement terms and conditions, a Parallels Desktop for Mac retail license can only be used for activation of Parallels Desktop for Mac on a single Mac machine.
Note: In order to use Parallels Desktop for Mac on several Mac machines, you need to purchase the corresponding number of licenses.

  • How do I install Lion on more than one Mac

    How do I install Lion on more than one Mac?  As I have a MacBook Pro and a iMac?

    Purchase Lion on one of the machines.
    Log in to the MAS with the other machine, using the same Apple ID you originally bought Lion with. Go to the Purchased Tab and Lion should be available for download. It should say Install.
    It's possible that you will be asked for credit information as a form of verifying who you are.

  • 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! ?????

    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.

  • IChat AV with NAT and more than one Mac

    I am a bit confused about firewall settings for iChat AV. I have a netgear FVS328 router. Obviously to have iChat working, I first open the firewall on my mac (Tiger) for the appropriate ports. Then I defined a service on the router and a rule to open those ports. It works... however, I have an issue.
    In the router firewall setup I had to give an LAN IP Address to which packets for those specific iChat ports would be forwarded. Now, I understand this when a connexion is ignited from the Internet and (for example) you would want all HTTP trafic on port 80 to go to your web server. But here I have more than one mac behind my firewall. Moreover, they get there address by DHCP. I can't change the firewall setting each time I want to chat from a different computer!
    I tried to have a look at port triggering, but it doens't seem to exist on the netgear. But even though, I would have to specify an IP address on my LAN.
    Why is this needed since basically both iChat parties are already connected to .Mac so the connexion is made!
    I am also wondering how they manage that kind of problem in Internet cafes where they certainly do not have a fixed Internet IP address for each PC or Mac available!

    It is not possible to port forward the same port number to more than one computer on any router that does NAT. It is impossible for the router to know which of the computers to send it to and sending it to both would confuse the software.
    Think of it another way all post for a particular house is delivered by a postman. Once posted in the mailbox someone picks it up and ensures it reaches the correct person by the name written on the post. Now if you have 2 John Smiths in the same house nobody will know which one it is for. The same applies to the port numbers on the router. Some applications allow you to select a unique range of ports for each computer so you can organize a unique port for each computer but iChat doesn't.

  • Install Final Cut Stdio 2 on more than one machine?

    Hi,
    anyone knows if it'll be possible to install FCS2 on more than one machine? I have different macs (desktop, laptop) I'd like to install FCS2 on.
    thanks.

    Hi there,
    legally you can only install 1 copy of FCS onto 1 desktop & 1 laptop. any more than that you need to but more copies.
    as to the requirements of FCS2, check out apples FCS2 webpage for exact details but roughly, as it is a PRO app, it requires PRO machines (not mac minis, macbooks or any machine with an integrated graphics chip)
    hope this helps

  • HT1338 Can I install mountain lion on more than one mac book?

  • HT1490 Why are Batteries no longer removable? This option allowed you to just plug in your laptop and save the life of the battery. It also gave the option to have more than one charged battery on hand for camping and back packing trips. Any suggestions?

    Also Mountain Lion doesn't have the timer for the the Battery life, only percentage. How can amount of battery time be shown permently?

    The removable battery problem is called progress or more accuratety alleged progress. It is cheaper to install a bare battery pack than to provide space for the cased removable variety. More compact and flatter laptop cases need the extra room that a removable battery occupied. It also weighs less with no case. Cooling can be a problem with higher performance options in these crowded environments.
    To me the ultra lightness and compactness of the new laptops is of secondary importance compared to performance and reliability. 

  • Install Mountain Lion on more than one mac

    Hi, I have read various posts about installing previously purchased mountain lion on another device. I have gone into App store, signed in and clicked on the download button but nothing happens.
    Trying to install on Macbook Pro..
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Contact the App Store billing support.  I believe you are limited to one installation per device.  If you are going to upgrade to Mountain Lion (10.8), see if Mavericks (10.9) isn't compatible with your software first, as the upgrade is free and has the same system requirements.
    Note, any PowerPC applications or drivers you have are not compatible with either.
