Running logic on two computers

Is anyone running two versions of logic on two different machines and locking them up? No nodes please, you can't run the exs on a node and thats the point of this question.

Mr. Udell, I remember you indeed. Greetings.
Well, two XS keys would change a lot in my universe. I better understand why you're going in this direction, and now, I'd encourage you to consider all EXS.
I have VSL First Edition Giga, then I cross/upgraded to EXS Pro Edition. Hence, I run both platforms. I intended to phase out my Giga and go all EXS. But there's Giga, loaded and ready to go with few polyphony issues and 1.5 GB from Windows... and a second XS key is a thousand dollars. So I'll be in Giga for a while.
In fact, I face a very similar situation as you, pressing for a larger template but frustrated by the OSX RAM limit.
EXS' seamlessness with Logic and the ability to offline bounce trump the benefits of Giga when cost is not an issue.
I'm well if reluctantly familiar with the world of sample translations, particularly from Giga to EXS. I use Translator and the native Giga Convert in EXS. If you can, Chris, spare yourself the tedium. It will consume time that you may better spend assembling a dual Mac template.
Really, all you need now is a cheaper second hand Mac and a MIDI device for it, if you don't mind analog recording to your primary Mac when mixing.
Personally, I've never broached a digital audio exchange between computers, but it would be ideal for you. (I'm wondering if you could still offline bounce with the audio of your second Mac digitally connected to your primary Mac.)
Another benefit is that, eventually, we'll access 8 GB of memory, which means 16 GB conceivably for you. And it's amazing how templates morph over time, according to the memory they may inherit. I've worked on orchestral templates since my first Roland S-550, and I doubt that we ever have enough memory. But things are ever-improving.

Installing Logic in two computers

Is that possible to install the Logic express in two MacBooks, even updating just the original one that came with the computer?

Should be. By default, it is allowed to install Logic on two Computers (see license) . I have one Installation on my Macbook and the other one on the iMac.

Nodes/running Logic with two boxes

Hello, I'm thinking of using two Mac Minis (one an older 1.67 mhz/1GB RAM model, the other 2.00 MHZ/2GB model) as "nodes" for using Logic and music stuff in general. If anyone who's done this would be so kind as to share tips, or point me toward a good FAQ/URL I would be deeply appreciative.

Running pse on two computers at the same time

I have installed pse 12 from the same disk on 2 computers. One computer runs pse 12 and the other doesn't. Is it because I'm only allowed to run the program on one computer at a time?

Do you run pse 12 aat the same time on 2 macnines?
No. I must admit I don't have PSE12 yet. I suggest wait for Barbara, Kelly or others who have PSE12 because they are in a better position to answer this than I am.
Sorry for the confusion.
BARBARA OVER TO YOU.

How to get logic onto two computers?

i got a new mac, and I have logic on my old one, we bought logic for more than one computer but how do i get the same one onto my other mac without paying for it?

Log into the Mac App Store with the Apple ID you used, click on the Purchases tab, and download it from there.
If you originally got it on a DVD instead of from the Mac App Store, install that DVD.

Running Bridge on Two Computers - Keyword Problems

I'm currently trying to catalog pictures for a publication that the company I work for uses. We store the pictures on a shared database and I've been using Bridge CS5 on my computer to catalog them and assign the pictures keywords. We're running Bridge CS3 on another computer in the office, and when I click the shared database and search for a picture on the CS3 computer from a keyword I've assigned from my computer, nothing comes up. I have had to manually click every picture on the CS3 computer in order for my CS5 keywords to show up. I was under the assumption that the CS5 keywords would be "embedded" into the picture file, in a sense, that the CS3 computer shouldn't have any problem reading them since they're coming from a shared database.
Is there a way that I can get the CS3 computer to read my CS5 keywords and visa versa rather than by clicking on every picture?

I think the problem lies in indexing. This has to be done before a keyword can be found.
CS3 and CS5 use different cache system, so each has its own cache. By clicking on each picture you are in effect re-indexing.
If you are searching in one folder try this first - go to tools/cache/purge cache for xx folder. Let it rebuild and then do search.

Can I run Muse on two computers with one subscription?

I have a Muse subscription on my desktop but occasionally need to acces it with my lap top. Is it possible to use both machines with one subscription?

Alwheaton,
You can use the following links to download the latest version of Adobe Muse on your Laptop/Desktop :
Windows : http://www.adobe.com/go/muse_latest_win
Mac : http://www.adobe.com/go/muse_latest_mac
And when it asks you to use it as trial version or a Subscription, just select Subscription and use your Adobe Id and Password (using which you purchased the subscription) when asked.
Hope this helps.

Sachin

(legally) running iwork on two computers?

Hi, wasn't sure where to ask this.
My old mac laptop is dying (not important, overheating, graphics problems, etc). I'm getting a new one. I use keynote in lectures.
So I had an idea. What if I just use my old one in the classroom until it dies (since I get chalky and I'm plugging and unplugging things all the time). And just use the new one to work on (and maybe get more life out of the new one).
I'm the only one that uses either computer.
Do I have to buy another copy of iwork (trying to do things legally)?
Message was edited by: counterpt

That's awesome thank you. All I need is a viewer on the old machine. I didn't know about the trial becoming a viewer.
I would have bought another copy but not if it was wasteful (If I didn't have to).

Can I have the same library on two computers?

I would like to run iTunes off two computers..work and home with my same library. Can I? How?
Thank you much

I have seen the same info in a few different threads, but I'm still confused. My daughter has ITunes on an older computer, and wants to back up all the info for a new computer. I have ITunes on my computer, and tried to save her files on a flash drive (1 GB) and here's what happened: When I save either or both the .xml or .itl files, and tried to import them to my itunes, I got folders but no songs. When I saved the ITunes Music folder, that gave me the songs, but its more than 1 GB, so I guess I need more flash drives. [However, I was able to import a song that had been downloaded from a CD onto my daughter's computer while the drive was in place on my computer, but when the drive was gone, so was the song......is that always the case?] Do I need to copy the entire ITunes folder (including the .xml, .itl and Music) to the flash drive, and then copy that to the hard drive on the new computer? Help!

Can I use Logic Pro 9.1.6 on two computers with one licens

I have download and install Logic Pro 9.1.6 on my MacBookPro 13". I record on location with my MacBook an wil edit and arrange the music on my iMac at home. Can I use Logic Pro 9.1.6 on two computers with one licens. I'm the owner of both computers. If it can where can I find the program on my MacBook? and how to install and register?

Hi, is the iMac also 10.6.8? I had an iMac die when 10.6.8 was installed, it worked at first but after some You Tube flash videos the screen just locked and no mouse clicking anywhere did anything. It turned out that most older iMacs [ mine was from august 2007] have a graghics chipset that can't handle Snow Leopard, there were [are?] 77 pages on this "locked screen"topic in the Snow Leopard forum. I checked out a web site that tells you how much your mac is worth by filling in the sereal number-mine was worth only $168, I may give it to a friend for his children to play with, although that seems unholy. I doubt anyone woud buy it,the problem is now so well known that even Apple certified resellars here in the Netherlands refuse to repair them,they claim Apple will revoke their certification if they replace the faulty Graphics unit,it is also VERY hard to get to that unit in an iMac, everything is so tightly packed inside.
If your iMac is running Mountain Lion[10.8.0] you may have to change the app store preference to accept apps from all sites,normally ML will only allow app store apps to be downloaded.

I have two computers - iMac and PC. What is the EARLIEST version of Acrobat I can run on each system. I am running 10.9.2 on iMac and Windows 8 on PC. Thanks.

Adobe currently supports Acrobat X and Acrobat XI for Mac and Windows platforms. More details about base system requirements can be found here: Tech specs | Adobe Acrobat XI Pro and the changes to these requirements with the product updates can be found here : Overview — Acrobat and Adobe Reader Release Notes. So the earliest version would be Acrobat X and the Latest would be Acrobat XI.
Please let us know if that answers your query.

How do I use two computers in logic at the same time?

I would like to find out how to make two computers work in the same project, both having logic installed.

No that is not possible.
You talk about a synchronized system. iCloud is doing something similar to work on the same document on different computers and have them synchronized. However that creates a problem if two computers (users) updating the same file which creates a conflict because the computer doesn't know which file to update wiht what.
However, Logic has a very easy feature to import tracks from one Project to another. It is the Browser window.
Mount each other's computer so you have access to the individual Project on each other's computer
Open the Browser window in Logic in your Project and navigate to to your friends Project
Select that Project and pick any Track (optional: content, plugin, settings, etc)
If you want to update only the data, just select that track and only its content and choose overwrite existing Track.
Play around a bit and you will see that it is an amazing (often overlooked and underrated) feature.
Hope that helps

How to run the same license on two computers?

Hello,
I have searched around a bit for answers to my questions without luck so far.
I have used Adobe Lightroom 3 & 4 on my computer for years. Now I have purchased a laptop computer as well. I am the only user of both computers. As I understand the end user license agreement, I am allowed to use the same license on both of my computers.
Is this straightforward? Do I just install LightRoom 4 with the serial number from the purchase? LR4 was an upgrade from LR3. Do I need to install LR3 first, or just use both serial numbers?
I will also like to upgrade my standalone computer from Windows 7 to Windows 8. I have actualle tried the upgrade process, and was told it failed, and that I need to do a complete (fresh) installation of Windows 8 (after formatting the computers disk).
Will I be able to do this? My preferred "end result" is running LR4 on both computers with Windows 8, although a fresh installation of Windows 8 on the standalone computer.
I am also considering purchasing Adobe Acrobat. Will I be able to run that as well on both computers?
What if I replace the standalone with a new computer one day - will I be able to move the license from the "old" one?
I would appreciate an answer to this post.
Best Regards,
Svein A. Martinsen

As you already indicated your awareness, you are allowed to install and activate Adobe software on two machines. You should only need to install and then activate. If you have the discs, then go that way. I f you do not have discs, download the version(s) and use your serial number from your original purchase to activate.
As far as changing from Windows 7 to Windows 8 goes, that's generally beyond the calling of folks here. I personally would not upgrade an OS, having done it once in the past and regretting it every day after that - I now prefer to live with what came with the machine. You might find older software is not compatible with Windows 8 and there is nothing anyone here can do to change that.

Is it possible to connect an older Power Mac (running OS 10.5.8) to an iMac running 10.9.5. I want to share the monitor, keyboard and mouse and switch between the two computers.

as far as I know then the target display mode is not an option with such an old mac
