When buying upgrade, can I use it on both of my mac computers?

If I buy the upgrade from Snow Leopard to Lion, am I able to use that on both of my mac computers without paying for two upgrades?  One is a desktop and the other is a MacBook Pro laptop.

When you download it on the first one, make a copy to put away in another folder before installing because the installer 'self destructs' (for lack of a better term, then you can just copy the Lion copy you made on a USB stick and install it on the other computer and save another 3.4GB of downloading.

  • If i purchase the $29.99 upgrade, can I use it on two of my macs? l

    Hi all, I have two macs in my household, one for my myself and one for my husband, they're attached to separate payment accounts/email accounts/mac logins. If I upgrade my macbook pro with the app store update, can I use the same single update for my other mac?
    Or is it a single install?
    Please let me know. Eager to upgrade!!

    I hate the fact that you can't cut and paste stuff from the app store....
    Go to the Lion article ... on the right hand side is an entry "App License Agreement."
    Scroll down to the "OSX Lion 10.7 License agreement.... scroll down... to section 2 - permitted License Uses and Restrictions... article B...
    "if you obtained license from Mac App Store...
    subsection i ... "to downloand, install and use... on each ... that you own or control."

    The 3GS was not sold as an unlocked phone in the US 2 years ago and AT&T did not offer unlocking then.
    You bought a hacked phone. The Apple servers can detect the hack and have now disabled activation. Contact AT&T and find out if you qualify to have it unlocked or buy a new legitimately unlocked phone.

  • I need to synch my iphone, ipod touch and classic to a Mac that I have and 2 I am about to buy. I have legally paid for all my music. If I use migration on my new Macs and clone the original, can I use my iAppliances on all 3 Macs?

    Yes.
    You can authorize up to 5 computers to play itunes music ( pre-itunes plus).  There is no limit on itunes plus ( all itunes music for the past several years) and imported music.
    You can sync as many ipods/ipads/iphones as you like to each of your computers.

    From the iTunes Store, yes, all your iOS devices running on the same account will qualify.

    No. There is no "USB Target Disk Mode".
    Just so we're clear, when you start your Mac mini in FireWire Target Disk Mode (TDM - holding T on startup), do you see a FireWire icon on the Mac mini's display? IIRC, it's not required that the Mac mini be connected to a display for TDM, but it would help diagnose whether or not the mini is actually starting in this mode.

  • Can i use apple tv to make my mac a monitor

    can i use apple tv to make my mac a monitor

    You can, somewhat. Certain iMacs released in the last two years support "Target Display Mode" which lets you use them as very expensive dedicated external monitors. In theory you could hook your Apple TV up to that with an HDMI to minidisplayport or (possibly) Thunderbolt adapter. (See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3924 for Target Display Mode specifics)
    But I would have to question the value in that, since you could buy a decent comparable sized flat screen TV for 1/5th the price of that iMac.
    If your goal is to watch media content on your iMac, you would almost certainly be better off doing it using the Front Row application, or setting up iTunes to display fullscreen content and control it from your iOs device with the App Store's "Remote" program.

    I am new to IPAD and I want o use facetime, how can I use it to communicate with my mac at home, do I need to create another account with a different email account

    do I need to create another account with a different email account
    Yes, the email addresses need to be unique to each device. You may use the same Apple ID on each device, but the email address used by each device needs to be different.

  • Can i use this download and install on multiple computers?

    Can i use this download and install on multiple computers?

    I assume you're talking about the Lion installer?  If so, yes, you're allowed to use it on any machines authorized with your Apple ID (which I believe means a maximum of five machines).  This is, of course, meant for family use...  I'm not sure about business use, but I'd suspect you need one copy per machine at a business.  If you're in that situation, you may want to wait for the $69 Lion flash drive Apple will be releasing next month sometime, as that won't be tied to an Apple ID.  But check with Apple to be sure on that.

  • HT201250 Can I use Time Machine on two different Macs to back up to one external drive?

    Can I use Time Machine on two different Macs to back up to one external drive?
    I have one 1T Western Digital backup drive that works well with Time Machine and my MacBook Pro.  I now want to back up my wife's MacBook Air using Time Machine on her Mac and want to know if I can use the same WD external drive or if I need to get a 2nd back up drive?  If I can use one external drive for the two Macs do I need to do something special on the drive or will Time Machine do it automatically?

    Yes. You will need to configure Time Machine preferences on each computer to backup to the same drive. Note that you cannot connect the backup drive to both machines at the same time.
