When I try to install this on the second computer it says it has already been used. How do I use it twice?

Hi I had to contact Customer Services, which, at best, is hit and miss and at worst is an appalling experience Beware of their tendancy to try and sell you "essential clearing of numerous viruses from your infected computer" I use Windows Defender, CCleaner and Malwarebytes, all free to download, I binned Mcafee Good luck

I picked up 2 2 GB, only one would work at a time, so I only have 3 GB in my computer 1 GB original and 1 2GB new addition,with a 2 GB spare, because the new 2+2 would not work at one time.

No you cannot, the installation requires the product key to be entered if you try to install on a second PC it will fail to activate.

No, you can only install it one time on one computer. If you need to change computers there may be a way for Sage to deactivate your install so that you can reinstall, but for the most part it is a one time install.

You can't. This program is for much older computer and won't install on newer models. I had the same issue.

If you only bought it for one computer I don't think it'll work on a second one. I was buy for 3 computers.

No, A replacement computer doesn't count you can have it on a max of 3 computers at a time. I am on my 4th home computer 2nd laptop and have on 2in1. All of them I have used the same license. The only time I had any trouble was when my new computer crashed after a few months and I was given a replacement, I wasn't able to delete it from the old computer. One call to Microsoft and they gave me a license key to get it downloaded.

Yes it can be used more than once as long as it is used on the original 2 machines that it was installed on. If you wish to transfer to more than one PC you have to have additional liscense.

I believe that it is a single user license. You should check the license agreement to what is allowed. I am not sure if it would let you install on a 2nd system. Sometimes it is allowed to account for someone using it at home or at work, just not at the same time.

Check the Scrivener web site for their latest policy for installing on multiple computers. I'm pretty sure if you buy for multiple operating systems, you'll have to pay separately.

I have never tried to install on more then 1 machine but my understanding is that the license is only for one machine at a time.

I did add a second hard drive, but I am no pro. The metal plate blocking the slot is a knock out, so I got pliers and ripped it (gently,) out. I had to go buy a cable (I bought a longer version of the cable that attached the drive to my old computer) and simply installed it in the same way my old drive was installed. I may simply have gotten lucky. I remember an old conversation about making one drive a slave to the other, but I didn't do anything like that, and the drives are both working, so maybe I did get lucky. You are better off talking to a real tech guy, and someone who is 20 years younger than I am.

I was able to install it on both my desktop and laptop, I do not know about a third... It may require installing from the original location as internet authorization is required.

You should only install on one PC if I remember correct. But I think you mean how many times can you download in case you need to get it again. If I remember correct there was a number of times. But when you download the file you will have the file. So burn to a DVD or put on a USB external drive or something so you will have a hard copy of it. What I also did was upgrade to the new version X7. When I upgraded one of the things they offer for a small fee is to mail you a DVD with the program. I paid for it. I feel much better having it here on a DVD. Hope the answer helps.

I have 2 PCs as well, and usually use it on 1. But I did try to install the CD version on both once before I started buying the downloadable version. Plus the downloadable version, does allow reinstalls, so I would say yes.

It comes with a license that can be installed on 2 computers. If you want to move it to another computer, you need to inactivate it from one of the computers. I had a hard drive fail and to reinstall it on the new computer, called customer service and they were very helpful in resetting the license
