Hi. Since I recently purchased Pro, I am trying to get to it when I can as I am excited about what I am doing. Unfortunately I have to fly home as my Dad is very sick and I don't know how long I will be away. Is there any way that I can still use this on my Mom's computer while I am away?? I am leaving Monday early afternoon so I would need an answer asap!
Thank you, Mochajava |

Mochajava,
If you have it on a CD, it should not be a problem if you take the CD with you. You should UNINSTALL it on your mom's computer when you leave.
If it is a download, you can possibly make note of the unlock code and try installing it on your mother's PC and unlocking it. I don't know if it will work or not.
However, you should note that in either case you need to uninstall when you leave. Software is like a book. The key is that it CANNOT be used in two places at once!

Hi! I was hoping something like this would work! I purchased as a download so do I just burn to a disc? When I downloaded to purchase the regular and Pro came together but it is the Pro that I purchased so I guess I will have to be careful when I burn a disc to make sure that I burn the right one? From what you are saying here, if I use my unlock key at my Mom's, should I not be uninstalling on mine??
No worries as Mom is 85 and does not understand computers!
Thanks, Mochajava |

Burning a disk of what you have won't help unless you burn the file you downloaded (the one that has both) and the email that contains the unlock code. The program is NOT in a single folder but has "hooks" elsewhere on the hard disk as does any non-trivial computer application now. It needs to be installed new on the second computer. If it was a download, you can simply download the program to your mother's computer and install and try to use your existing unlock code. I do not guarantee that it will work.
Even if she is 85, you should still remove it when you leave.
